Chapter one hundred and ninety nine

Li Fengyun didn't believe it, shook his head, laughed it off, and took Xiao Yi as a joke.

Xiao Yi saw some fame from Li Fengyun's face, "Do you know Pushan Gong?"

There are too many powerful families in the Middle Earth, and there are a large number of children from wealthy families. A wealthy family like the Li family in Liaodong, from old age to young age, from legitimate birth to illegitimate birth, from men to women, there are hundreds of people, and there are few dozens of people with titles and official positions. Even relatives who are very close to the Li family may not be able to recognize all the children and grandchildren of the Li family. Of course, descendants like Li Mi who inherited the titles of their ancestors and were the eldest son of a family have a certain status and status in the family. Of course, more people know him, but Li Fengyun is just a big thief outside the border. How could he know Li Mi?

Xiao Yi knew that Li Fengyun's origin was mysterious, but judging from Li Fengyun's age and his years of experience as a thief in Liaodong, he knew that the possibility of Li Mi of Pushan was very small. After all, Li Kuan, the old Pushan Duke, passed away for more than ten years, and Li Mi of the little Pushan Duke, has been banned from the official career. He reads, writes and studies all day long, and lived in simplicity. There are only few people who know it. How could Li Fengyun know that there is such a nobleman who is almost forgotten in the city? Xiao Yi's curiosity arose, and there are many speculations in his heart. Could it be that Li Fengyun has any special relationship with the Li family in Liaodong?

Li Fengyun nodded, looking disapproving. Why didn’t I know Pushan County Duke? You look down on others too much, right? Li Mi, I know, but I really know nothing about you, the playboy of the Xiao family in Lanling.

"How could you know?" Xiao Yi blurted out.

Li Fengyun looked at him contemptuously, "Why can't you know? Can't you hear it? "

"He lives in the capital city with only a few knowledgeable people. How can you know?" Xiao Yi tried his best and curled his lips disdainfully, "Has you ever been to Dongdu? Even if you have been to Dongdu, there are many princes and nobles in Dongdu, and most of the famous people in the capital are like sensuality and sensuality. For example, Yu Wenshu, the son of Xu Guogong Yuwenshu, is very famous, while Li Mi, Duke of Pushan, devoted himself to studying and his reputation is only seen in Confucian scholars, not in Lifang, and there is no possibility of hearing." Xiao Yi glanced at Li Fengyun and teased, "Are you also a disciple of the great scholar Bao Kai? You have also carefully compiled "Records of the Grand Historian" and "Book of Han"?"

Li Fengyun laughed and asked back, "How can you recognize Li Mi as a Lanling playboy? Are you also a disciple of the great scholar Bao Kai?"

"Of course I don't know him." Xiao Yi was frank and blunt, "I have such an identity, it's okay to gangsters in Jiangdu, but I'm just an island barbarian in Dongdu. No one can look down on me, so I've been to Dongdu five times since I was a child." Xiao Yi stretched out his right hand, opened his five fingers and waved it in front of Li Fengyun a few times, very indignant, obviously he had been insulted in Dongdu, "But I met Duke Pushan twice in Dongdu. Once, the old Duke of Yue was a mourning, and he helped the young Duke of Yue.

He was cooking funerals and singing condolences. He cried like rain and cried in tears. He felt even more painful than his death. Therefore, he admired him very much. Later, when people called him Duke Pushan, he realized that there was such a noble family in Dongdu. Two years ago, a great-grandfather passed away. A great-grandfather was a doctor of the Imperial College. Bao Kai, an assistant teacher in the Imperial College, came to pay his condolences with a group of disciples. Pushan was there and recited the condolences on behalf of his teacher. He cried like rain and cried in tears, so he was very impressed by him."

The old Duke of Yue was Yang Su, and the little Duke of Yue was Yang Xuangan. Li Fengyun knew that, but he didn't know who Xiao Yi's great-grandfather was. The Xiao family in the world came out of Lanling, and there were too many branches of the Xiao family in Lanling. If counted by seniority, there were too many people who Xiao Yi called him great-grandfather. Li Fengyun was very curious and asked casually. Xiao Yi immediately became energetic and introduced his great-grandfather, the great-grandfather of the Doctor of the Imperial College. His great-grandfather was named Xiao Gai, the grandson of Xiao Hui, the king of Poyang in the Jiangzuoliang Dynasty, was well-versed in the Five Classics and was proficient in the Book of Han. He was a great scholar in the Middle Earth and was famous for a while.

Li Fengyun listened to Xiao Ji's story while thinking about Li Mi. From Xiao Yi's words, it can be inferred that he did know Li Mi, familiar with Li Mi's face, and was impressed. If Liu Zhiyuan was Li Mi, the development of the matter would be interesting. Li Fengyun's mind became alive, and all kinds of ideas poured into his mind like a tide, which made him very excited.

As Xiao Yi said, Li Mi is now a hermit, deliberately hiding his ambitions and watching the world coldly, like a hidden dragon dormant in the abyss, waiting for the opportunity to soar into the sky. The powerful and powerful in the dynasty almost forgot him. No one knew his ambition except his like-minded people. But coincidentally, Li Fengyun knew his ambitions and knew his future life course, and he had a glimpse of his personality flaws and strategic characteristics. With a mindfulness and no intention, Li Mi came to him by himself, which was equivalent to giving Li Fengyun countless opportunities. As long as the alliance seized these opportunities and made good use of them, he would be able to escape unscathed on the battlefield of Tongjiqu, and he could also make a fortune and return with a full load.

"Ming Gong, I can conclude that the person I saw was probably Li Mi of Pushan Gong." After Xiao Yi finished telling Xiao Ji's story, he immediately returned to the topic, "Ming Gong and Pushan Gong Li Mi sacrificed his life to the danger, probably sent by Li Dan, the prefect of Liang County. As far as I know, Li Dan is Li Mi's uncle and they are a family."

Li Fengyun reached out to interrupt Xiao Yi's words, "Are you really sure that the man is Pushan Duke Li Mi?" Without waiting for Xiao Yi to answer, Li Fengyun increased his tone again, "It is of great importance. If he is Pushan Duke Li Mi, the situation will be complicated. Whether he is sent by Li Dan, the prefect of Liang County, or entrusted by a force in Dongdu, there must be major secrets hidden behind it. Otherwise, what reason does a duke who is willing to study and study have to come here regardless of the danger of his life? If this is true, then his appearance has actually affected our decision-making and even the fate of the alliance."

Li Fengyun was solemn, and Xiao Yi agreed with his statement. Since that was the case, Xiao Yi had to be cautious. After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Yi asked, "Ming Gong, will you hold a banquet to entertain Wang Bo and his party tonight?"

Li Fengyun nodded and understood Xiao Yi's intention, "Are you sure you have never met him? You haven't said anything? Are you sure he won't recognize you?"

"Do you know how old the east is and how many princes are?" Xiao Yi looked at Li Fengyun's warning, "Tonight I went to the banquet and took a good look, I don't believe it. I will see the wrong eyes."

Li Fengyun shook his hand at him and signaled him not to say anything else, so as not to be heard by others. If the messenger Liu Zhiyuan is really Pushan Gong Li Mi, it would be the secret of the alliance, and no matter what, the third party should not be known.

The two whispered aside and did not attract the attention of the noble and commanders. Everyone was still arguing with blushing faces. After that, Li Fengyun did not give them much time. He ordered Zhen Baoche to immediately call out ten regiments from the Selection Army, crossed the Tongji Canal between Yongqiu and Xiangyi, and killed the city directly. First, help the victims to cross the obstacles of four waterways and enter the junction of Liang County, Yingchuan and Huaiyang counties. As for whether to attack Fule next, help the victims to cross the Caishui River and enter Yuzhou, it depends on the development of the situation.

The atmosphere of the dinner was very good. Li Fengyun intended to arrange the food and drinks simply. After all, it was an extraordinary period. Excessive luxury not only made people unable to get a face, but instead slapped himself in the face. However, the atmosphere should be adjusted well so that the brothers could feel their enthusiasm and sincerity. The host and host were happy. Wang Bo should thank Li Fengyun for his kind hospitality, and then proposed to say goodbye and leave early tomorrow morning. He was just a guide and guide. After the task was completed, of course there was no need to stay here to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings from the Wagang brothers.

Li Fengyun made some polite mistakes, while trying to keep Wang Bodang, he took the opportunity to keep Li Mi. What made him happy was that Li Mi actually agreed with the flow and offered to discuss the current situation in depth with Li Fengyun, implying that he had other important purposes for this trip. Li Fengyun agreed immediately and promised to handle the official duties, he invited him to talk at night.

Li Fengyun returned to the commander's tent first, while Xiao Yi arranged Wang Bodang and Li Mi and others, and then hurried back. At this moment, there was still official business to deal with, Yuan An and several officials were in the tent, so Li Fengyun could only endure it, but was a little excited. He had already seen hope on Xiao Yi's face, and the shocking joy was right in front of him.

If Liu Zhiyuan is Li Mi, then what is the purpose of Li Mi sacrificing herself to go to danger? This question must be clarified. Only by knowing Li Mi’s purpose can we bargain and strive to maximize our interests.

Li Mi came here for two purposes, one for the benefit of his family and the other for the benefit of Yang Xuangan's political group.

Li Fengyun forced himself to calm down and find the answer from the fog of history in the past, present and future. Today, the Li family in Liaodong is still a rich middle-level family and its power is still huge. However, compared with its heyday, the disparity is great. Compared with the five wealthy families in Shandong, the Wei family in Guanzhong, the Pei family in Hedong, the Yuan family in the Lu family in Dugu family, its decline is also an indisputable fact. At this moment, the prophecy of "Li family to prosper" has been quietly spread. Everyone in the world is in danger, especially the wealthy family. However, Li Mi's betrayal did not bring a devastating disaster to the Li family in Liaodong. On the contrary, the Li family in Chengji in Longxi suffered a destruction.

The destruction of the family due to prophecies and divination is just a historical excuse, and the real reason is the result of political game. From this, looking back at the origin, it is not difficult to find that the destruction of the Li clan of Chengji, Longxi is directly related to the dispute between the imperial dynasty. Even if Li Mi betrayed the emperor, the Li clan of Liaodong was preserved because of the struggle between the imperial dynasty. In other words, the Li clan of Liaodong is not in a political crisis at present. Although the prefect of Liang County Li Dan was in danger due to the Tongjiqu crisis, from the analysis of the political situation of the Dongdu, the King of Qi said that Yang Nan would definitely send troops to quell the rebellion. Li Dan's crisis was temporary and would not endanger the fundamental interests of the Li clan of Liaodong.

It is certain that Li Mi came here not for the interests of the family, but for the interests of the political group where Yang Xuangan was located. The ultimate goal of this political group was to safeguard the power and wealth of the aristocratic ruling class. For this reason, it wanted to defend the politics of the family and gentry, oppose the centralization system, and oppose a series of reforms promoted by the emperor and the reformists.

The contradictions within the Middle-Turkish ruling class have reached the brink of eruption. The emperor and the reformists launched an expedition to transfer the contradictions. The conservative nobles tried their best to create domestic chaos and even began to plan to overthrow the emperor violently and end the reform with a military coup.

Li Fengyun guessed that the purpose of Li Mi's trip was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and the alliance would never miss it.
