In the early morning of April 17, when Li Fengyun was about to arrive at the bank of Heshui, Chen Rui rushed to send news from Kangfu City. Li Anqi visited and had something to discuss. After receiving the news, he asked Li Fengyun to pause and wait on the way.

On the eve of dawn, Li Anqi came in full swing, and what surprised Li Fengyun was that he saw a familiar face behind Li Anqi, which turned out to be Li Mi, the Duke of Pushan County.

In Li Fengyun's memory, Li Mi rushed from Xijing in Guanzhong to Liyang in Hebei until the eve of Yang Xuangan's mutiny. In other words, from time to time, Li Mi should be in Xijing at this moment, and should not appear here, nor should he appear in front of himself. However, the trajectory of history was slightly deviated due to the appearance of Li Fengyun, and some details also changed unexpectedly, such as Yang Nan, the King of Qi, Cui Hongsheng, Huangtai Duke, and now there is another Li Mi.

Li Fengyun glanced at Li Mi with an expressionless look, and Li Mi was silent.

Li Fengyun took Li Anqi aside and asked about the whole story.

The King of Qi was highly alert to the possible outbreak of the Dongdu mutiny. In order not to affect, Wei Fusi, Dong Chun and Li Shanheng deliberately concealed Li Fengyun's specific deduction of the mutiny in order not to affect it, which made the King of Qi keep a clear mind and not lose his mind because of the fatal temptation of the position of the crown prince. However, the visible crisis in front of Qi still made the King of Qi sleeplessly and unable to sleep or eat.

If the mutiny in Dongdu lifted his flag high at the beginning of the rebellion and dragged him into the water, what should he do? He could only prepare for the future and save himself, and could only place the hope of self-salvation on Li Fengyun. However, Li Fengyun was entering the Central Plains westward. The King of Qi felt that the farther Li Fengyun was away from him, the more likely he would be to lose control. So he was frightened and wanted to "follow and chase" and keep it within a safe and controllable range with Li Fengyun. However, Li Fengyun's purpose of entering the Central Plains westward was to participate in the mutiny of Dongdu. If the two sides were "too close", it would affect Li Fengyun's plan, and thus affect the King of Qi's comprehensive control of the entire future situation

Just as the King of Qi was anxious and worried about gains and losses, Li Baiyao and his son were "invited" to Licheng, which made the King of Qi overjoyed. Although he had no evidence so far that Li Fengyun and Li Baiyao and Li family were closely related to the Li family of Zhao County, as the situation developed, the thick fog that had previously shrouded Li Fengyun was gradually becoming thinner, and some things were vaguely visible. As for the truth, it was actually all in the thoughts of the parties involved, and they were in fierce competition for interests. If profitable, you think your guess is true, that is true. On the contrary, if profitable and you think your speculation is false, that is false. Now the King of Qi forced himself to believe that Li Fengyun is the child of Li family of Zhao County and has a close relationship with Li Baiyao and his son. The timely appearance of Li Baiyao and his son was for profit both sides.

King Qi respected Li Baiyao very much and gave him a very high-standard reception. In a sense, it was "house arrest" and forcibly "kidnapping" Li Baiyao on his own "ship", holding Li Fengyun hostages with the future interests of the Li family of Zhao County, forcing Li Fengyun to fulfill his promises under any circumstances, and to prevent the mutiny in Dongdu from forcibly "kidnapping" himself at all costs, and prevent them from completely "dragging" themselves when the situation at the beginning of the mutiny was unclear.

At the same time, the King of Qi's suspicion of Li Zixiong became deeper and deeper. Not only did he maintain a cautious distance, but he also repeatedly urged Li Zixiong to return to the Donglai Naval Division as soon as possible.

Now the King of Qi has defeated Li Fengyun, defeated Qilu and Hebei rebels, and recovered Licheng, the capital of Qi County. The situation in Qi County is improving rapidly. In addition, the naval warship led by Zhou Fashang is also swimming on the river, blocking the passage between the north and south of the river. Therefore, Li Zixiong's role in the battlefield of Qi County is no longer available. He came from Donglai and should go back to the navy. There is no need to continue to stay in Licheng.

The King of Qi's attitude of "exiting" was clear, and Li Zixiong also intended to leave. Li Zixiong did not take Li Fengyun's warning to heart, and still planned to return to the navy to continue his plan of instigation. Even if he could not start a mutiny first, he would give Yang Xuangan a positive response and strong support to be a firm ally when he launched a mutiny. Judging from his own wishes, although various news from different channels confirmed that Li Fengyun was facing the military.

The deduction of the change result is credible, but he couldn't accept it in his heart. He doubted and rejected this result very much. The future is unpredictable. If he always controls the pulse of fate, then everything is possible. Therefore, he did not give up and decided to fight to the death. So when he saw Li Mi who was hiding, he received a secret letter from Yang Xuangan, confirming that Yang Xuangan was actively planning and deployment of the mutiny, he bid farewell to King Qi and returned to Donglai day and night.

Li secretly came to Qi County, not only on behalf of Yang Xuangan and Li Zixiong's agreement to join forces for mutiny and other matters, but also lobbying Li Fengyun, who was in trouble on the battlefield of Qilu. The reason why Yang Xuangan made this decision was due to Li Zixiong's recommendation. Li Zixiong promised in a secret letter to Yang Xuangan that Li Fengyun had been persuaded by him. As long as a mutiny broke out in the Dongdu, Li Fengyun would definitely participate and would definitely fight to Dongdu without hesitation. How could such a great help besides?

Of course, Yang Xuangan had a great "interest" in Li Fengyun, but Li Fengyun was too mysterious. Yang Xuangan never found out his true face. Although Li Zixiong strongly recommended this time, he was also vague about his life experience. In this way, Yang Xuangan had to be cautious. It happened that Li Mi had in-depth contact with Li Fengyun during the Tongji Canal crisis last year, so Yang Xuangan specially invited Li Mi who was far away in Xijing. Li Mi was also obliged to be anxious about what Yang Xuangan was anxious about, and boated down the river channel, a thousand miles a day and a thousand miles a day. He first went to Liyang to meet Yang Xuangan, and then rushed to Licheng day and night to visit Li Zixiong, and then went straight to Henggongdu to find Li Fengyun.

"Li Zixiong..." Li Fengyun frowned and shook his head repeatedly. The old man was too stubborn and confident. Although he tried his best to warn him and tried hard to persuade him not to return to the navy, it was in vain and he wasted some effort.

"The King of Qi already intends to expel it, and it will be difficult for Duke Jianchang to continue." Li Anqi sighed helplessly when he knew what Li Fengyun was worried about.

Judging from the situation in Qilu today, the King of Qi has gained an advantage and his wings are becoming more and more abundant. This is obviously not conducive to the Holy Lord and threatens the political situation in the Dongdu. Therefore, in order to curb and weaken the King of Qi and to ensure that the navy can successfully cross the sea and expedition, Lai Huer and Zhou Fashang are very likely to quickly and decisively "take" Li Zixiong, kill one of the King of Qi, and completely eliminate the biggest hidden dangers that affect the Navy's expedition. The Navy is Lai Huer and Zhou Fashang's "territory", and Lai Huer and Zhou Fashang are absolutely loyal to the Holy Lord. As the political enemy of the Holy Lord, Li Zixiong returned to the Navy on the eve of the storm, which is really unwise and is suspected of seeking death.

"The King of Qi knows only so much. It is not the King of Qi who really wants to expel him, but the people around the King of Qi." Li Fengyun sneered and said lightly, clicking and stopping

In order to protect the political "safety" of King Qi to the greatest extent and prevent problems, Wei Fusi, Dong Chun and Li Shanheng were eager to "drive away" Li Zixiong, but they didn't know that this happened to "secretly match" the original historical trajectory. Li Fengyun's lucky mentality about the mutiny was wiped out.

After Li Zixiong left the King of Qi and returned to the navy, he would definitely be "taken" by Lai Huer and Zhou Fashang. But Li Zixiong knew that Yang Xuangan was going to launch a mutiny. If he was escorted to the Holy Lord's Palace, he would inevitably be tired of Yang Xuangan and would definitely die, so Li Zixiong must have escaped halfway. In history, Li Zixiong was indeed "taken" by Lai Huer, and Li Zixiong did escape successfully, but the key to the problem is that Li Zixiong's arrest means that the mutiny plan may have been exposed.

It directly forced Yang Xuangan to a dead end, forcing Yang Xuangan to initiate a mutiny. The consequences of launching a mutiny in advance were too serious. Not only did the mutiny urge the invasion and the preparations were not well prepared, but the more serious thing was that the expeditionary forces on the battlefield of the Eastern Expedition had not yet arrived at the city of Pyongyang. The Holy Lord could quickly withdraw the expeditionary forces, end the eastern expedition, and then mobilize troops back to Beijing to suppress the rebellion in the shortest time. This directly led to Yang Xuangan not having enough time to attack the Eastern Capital, which was one of the important reasons for the failure of the mutiny.

The first step is wrong, of course, every step is wrong. Li Fengyun's luck lies in the "first step" to save Yang Xuangan, allowing Yang Xuangan to launch a mutiny in the scheduled July, which is the time when the Expeditionary Force is expected to arrive at the city of Pyongyang, and then Yang Xuangan will gain more time to attack the Dongdu and allow this mutiny to last longer. Only in this way can Li Fengyun win more time to gain a foothold and develop after entering Hebei. On the contrary, if the mutiny is as fast as the original trajectory of history, even if Li Fengyun enters Hebei, he will be surrounded and blocked by the official army, let alone develop a foothold.

However, Li Fengyun failed to stop Li Zixiong from "stubbornly" going on the original trajectory of history. If nothing unexpected happens, Hu'er and Zhou Fashang will soon "take" Li Zixiong, and Yang Xuangan has to launch a mutiny in advance. Yang Xuangan urged to raise an army, and it was even more difficult for Li Fengyun to rob Tongji Canal. It was even more difficult for him to plunder Tongji Canal, and it was even more difficult to attract the main force of the Eastern Capital Garrison Army to go south. This not only could not help Yang Xuangan reach the Eastern Capital as quickly as possible, but it was also greatly increased in the difficulty of Li Fengyun breaking through the defense line of the capital of the capital. The time for attacking the Eastern Capital was already tense. It can be foreseen that when Yang Xuangan and Li Fengyun met at the city of Dongdu, the army that the Holy Lord transferred back to the capital to suppress the rebellion was also close.

"Is there any movement in Cui's place?" Li Fengyun changed the subject, "Does your lord have any news?"
