Ignoring Feng Liao and others who were still standing on the porch and in the courtyard like wooden stakes, Han Qian opened the door and walked into the house.

The stove was burning brightly and the room was steaming. Han Qian took off his heavy official robe. When he saw Feng Liao walking in, he ignored him and went straight to the case to sit down and finish revising a book.

I spread out my lesson plan and started making notes.

Feng Liao glanced at Xi Rong. He couldn't figure out what Han Qian was thinking for a while. He hoped that Xi Rong could give him some hints.

Xi Rong took the official robe that Han Qian took off and hung it on the wooden shelf in the corner.

Feng Liao hesitated for a while and said: "Today is the first time that other people know that you have such an idea, and it is inevitable that they will be a little confused -"

"Are you thinking about it?" Han Qian turned around and looked at Feng Liao and asked.

"I..." Feng Liao murmured for a while and said, "I think what Feng Yi said makes some sense. Think about how prosperous Li Yu was when he was conquering the South and the North. He handed over his military power back then, so he naturally returned to his country to recuperate.

With his great ambition, he hoped that Emperor Tianyou could finally withdraw his troops from the court and make the Jianghuai land cease war forever, but things may not always go as he wished; and even if he did, Emperor Tianyou did not believe in his loyalty. He wanted Liang Jun to invade in large numbers

During the time of Jingxiang, the situation was so urgent that Emperor Tianyou had no choice but to lead the expedition himself, but he never thought of using Li Yu. There has been a rift between you and His Highness. I am worried that if we return to Xuzhou this time, Your Highness will face many difficulties in the future.

, and will not think of us..."

"Do you think I'm playing a trick with His Highness to retreat in order to advance? Do you think I'm trapping myself?" Han Qian asked.

"I didn't say that," Feng Liao denied, but added, "Not to mention Li Pu, Zhang Pei had no contact with the prince of East Zhejiang Province in recent years, and when Li Yu died of illness, his son Li Xiu was in Sitian

Dun, they all stayed in front of the couch, which shows that not all of them agree with Li Yu's actions over the years."

"well!"

Han Qian sighed softly, opened the window, and saw Feng Yi, Kong Xirong and others standing in the yard looking over, but did not leave.

Li Yu once said that with his reputation, he could not change the opinions of people around him, and this was actually true.

Before Li Yu died of illness, he left a will, hoping that he could be buried in Guangde Village. This meant that he hoped that his son Li Xiu could be closer to the Chishan Army and have some affection, but in the end his son Li Xiu still

He insisted on sending someone to transport Li Yu's body to Sitian Dun for burial.

Although Sitian Dun is currently within the territory of Guangde Military Zhifu and is less than a hundred miles away from Guangde Village, Li Xiu's move is not so much about being close to the Chishan Army or Han Qian, but rather to his father Li Xiu.

Encountering last wishes and will resistance.

There has never been unreasonable loyalty, and there has never been unreasonable betrayal. He can now force Feng Liao, Feng Yi, Kong Xirong, and Zhou Chu to obey his orders, but he cannot prevent them from having their own

Ideas and profit pursuit.

Of course, the people standing in this courtyard may be thinking more about him at the moment, perhaps feeling unworthy and unfair for him, but deep down they still regard each other as a whole.

He was determined to give up military power after the war. They were unwilling to break away from the whole, which meant that they had to follow him and give up the power and benefits that were easily available to them.

Even if Zuo Guangde's army did not participate in the battle to recapture Jinling in the later period, with the current military exploits and the urgent need for the third prince's direct relatives to control the court and various counties after ascending the throne, Gao Shao, Lin Haizheng, Zhao Wuji, Zhou Chu and others

If you have more experience, you should actually be awarded the senior general position of the capital general or even the deputy capital commander level. If you place it, it should be at least a mid-to-high-level official position such as the state military envoy or the state Sima, or even the governor of Xiazhou.

.

The Feng family was convicted of treason by Emperor Tianyou and was overthrown. However, at the beginning of the plan to reduce the vassalage, the reason why Feng Liao agreed to cooperate in moving the Feng family to Xuzhou was because the third prince wanted to succeed him.

After ascending the throne, he can pardon the Feng family's sins.

It is abnormal to require everyone to be willing to sacrifice their own lives and plead for the people. On the contrary, everyone has their own interests and there is nothing inappropriate.

When Li Yu returned to seclusion, Zhang Pei was only in his early thirties. He was in the prime of life and was making great achievements. Is it realistic for him to give up everything and follow Li Yu to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests for retirement?

So Gao Shao, Lin Haizheng, Zhao Wuji, Zhou Chu all have the merit of following the dragon, but now I ask them to put it all down and retreat to Xuzhou with me, and still want them to have no ideas, is it realistic?

Thinking of this, Han Qian sighed slightly in his heart, dragged a chair, sat in front of the window, looked at Feng Liao and said earnestly: "At this time, only Wang Wenqian, Yang Yuanyan, Emperor Liang Zhu Yu and others are eager to hope that I will have the opportunity."

The ambition to take something out of chaos, but you have to remember one thing, since ancient times, there has never been a hero who can really take something out of chaos. Anyone who has such an idea has always been to make wedding clothes for others!"

Feng Liao said: "The boss is dedicated to the people and will not change his will even if he is tortured. No matter how unwilling we are, we will not be so stupid as to advise you to take it randomly. Everyone also hopes to end this situation as soon as possible.

War, but after regaining Jinling and His Highness takes the throne, he may have different ideas about what to do. Let me say this boldly, sir, you cannot tell everyone not to have any ideas of their own."

"Keep talking..." Han Qian said.

"I think, even if it is impossible to ask the court to allocate hundreds of thousands of dollars from the annual revenue to make up for the expenditure gap of the Guangde military establishment, or the Guangde military establishment is too close to Jinling, it will always make people

Your Highness, Li Pu and others could not sleep, but your Excellency requested to lead Zuo Guangde's army and more than 200,000 women and children to cross the river to defend Shouzhou and resist the Liang army in the middle line. At the same time, he was also responsible for containing King Xin Yang Yuanyan.

Will anyone compete with you for this chore?"

Han Qian said: "Do you really think that if I propose to cross the river to guard Shouzhou, I can really seize the military power of Zuo Guangde's army, and really think that I can really bring over 200,000 old, weak, women and children?"

"The general trend has been established, and everyone strives for credit. Except for us, no one will preserve their strength while sharing the greatest credit. Even if Jinling cannot be captured years ago, it will not be a problem to besiege Jinling City. His Highness will succeed to the throne early.

A month or two, a month or two is a matter of delay," Feng Liao said. "After His Highness succeeds to the throne, Yang Zhitang and the clan will not only protect the basics of Hongzhou, but also focus their interests on Jinling and Jiangnan.

The host states—His Royal Highness may be more inclined to reuse members of the clan to protect the country. In addition to Yang Zhitang, the Zheng family should set their sights on Jingxiang, and the Zhang family should think about consolidating their power in Langyue.

In addition, Zhang Han’s qualifications are too low to compete with you for the opportunity to lead his troops across the river to garrison Shouzhou. After the war, the Xinchang Hou Mansion will most likely focus on Shaozhou and Hengzhou in order to seize the opportunity in the near future.

The benefits in Xia Yongzhou are enough for them to digest for a while. The situation in Shouzhou is the most complicated, and there are strong enemies on both sides. Apart from you, whoever dares to pat their chests and say that they will sit in Shouzhou will definitely not go out.

Fault?"

"In order to protect myself, I taught His Highness the power and tricks. Once His Highness succeeds to the throne, he will be the first to use the power and tricks on me. This is one of them."

Han Qian knew that there were some things that Feng Yi and the others did not expect to be so thorough, but Feng Liao mainly wanted to find a way to protect everyone's current basic interests from being damaged, but there is no such thing as the best of both worlds.

"But taking two to three hundred thousand women and children to Shouzhou and turning them into soldiers who are little better than slaves in the place of the Fourth War is against my original promise to them. If I break the promise, I will not keep it. The second reason is that

Also; thirdly, they have a clear candidate to guard Shouzhou."

"What candidates do they have?" Feng Xiao thought for a long time, wondering if Yang Yuanpu could have any suitable candidates to lead his troops to recapture Shouzhou and guard it after recovering Jinling.

Han Qian said: "The good news came from Jiangzhou today, I thought you could figure it out?"

"..." Feng Liao was slightly startled, but after thinking for a long time, he didn't know what he should understand. He looked at Han Qian with confused eyes and asked, "You mean Li Zhigao? Li Zhigao won a great victory. Li Pu's expression when he heard the news

Yu Xi, I think it is inevitable for Li Zhigao to take further steps after regaining Jinling. But if I were Li Pu, I would rather let you be more popular, my lord, so that he can gather more people to target you. It is better than calling him Li Zhigao.

Completely out of his control!"

"When did Li Pu become famous? You underestimated the Lu Qingxia next to the concubine. Li Zhigao is the one she really put her effort into cultivating or supporting!" Han Qian said.

"How is that possible?" Feng Liao was about to jump up as if someone had stepped on his tail, but he didn't understand why Han Qian thought so!

"It turns out that you have been wary of Li Zhigao since you returned to Xuzhou!" Xi Rong stood aside and heard this, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Han Qian stood in front of the window and was silent for a long time, waiting for Feng Liao to digest the news.

In the established historical process of the dream world, after the chaos in Jinling and Jianghuai areas, Li Zhigao was still active in Jiangnan for a long time, and claimed to be a descendant of the previous clan. However, this was not recognized in the history books, and it was thought that this was just Li Zhigao.

It's just a small way to deceive people.

However, in such a chaotic situation, Li Zhigao could only do this by taking over the remaining forces of Xinchanghou Mansion and Wanhonglou. However, this was different from Han Qian's relationship between Li Zhigao and Li Pu, Chai Jian, Li Chong and others.

Relationship observations are contradictory.

Therefore, Han Qian had long speculated that Wan Honglou had another plan for Li Zhigao, but it was only then that he got confirmation.

Although the novelist Yan likes to use ambush tactics, how could Han Qian not know how difficult it is to send an elite ambush force of more than a thousand people into the depths of enemy territory without being discovered?

This cannot be explained by the enemy's negligence, but before Li Zhigao sent out the ambush, he was convinced that there would be some negligence in the enemy's scouting and reconnaissance system that would allow them to take advantage of the loopholes.

Otherwise, who would be willing to risk more than a thousand of his direct lineage elites without even a 20% to 30% chance of winning?

Li Zhigao didn't officially leave Ezhou until almost June. How could he have time to insert enough nails into the scouting and reconnaissance system of the Jiangzhou garrison?

Only Wanhonglou, as the remaining force of the Shenling Division in Jiangzhun, still has further imaginable potential that can be tapped.

Naturally, Han Qian would not explain the historical trend in the dream world to Feng Liao at this time. Xi Rong and the others said: "At the beginning, the Shence Army and Shenling Division of Sichuan and Shu were both under the rule of Tian Lingzi, and the Lord of Shu, Wang Jian, could not He was not a very dazzling and outstanding member of the Shence Army. However, after the fall of the previous dynasty, the forces run by Tian Lingzi quickly fell apart. However, Wang Jian quickly rose to power with the support of the Shenling Division and the Shu Division. Liangchuan——If this is the most commonly used strategy by the Shenling Division, can you think of something?"

"Your Excellency, you are saying that Lu Qingxia, as a woman, cannot directly take over the military power, but at the same time, she has to prevent Li Pu from being controlled by her when he becomes powerful, so he must have laid a secret to check and balance him, and Li Zhigao is This secret?" Feng Liao took a breath and asked in surprise.

Li Zhigao had the talent to manage and command the army. He was pragmatic but extremely decisive in his conduct.

Especially in the early days of the Jing-Xiang war, Li Zhigao was able to join forces with Han Qian to counterattack Chai Jian, Li Chong and others, and return power to Yang Yuanpu, even at the risk of breaking with everyone in the Xinchang Hou Mansion and his adoptive father Li Pu. Such a decision , Feng Liao was also very impressed.

In Feng Liao's view, Li Zhigao is Han Qian's staunchest ally. Even if Yang Yuanpu may speculate on Han Qian, Li Zhigao should speak for him and not stand up to compete with Han Qian for the opportunity to control Shouzhou.

How could Feng Liao have thought that such a possibility still existed?

Han Qian took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Feng Liao and said, "Except for the good news sent by a messenger from Jiangzhou today, Yang Qin has already sent the letter to Nantang Village for a long time. The two look similar. But the small differences are worth pondering.”

Yang Qin led a thousand soldiers and more than 30 warships in Xuzhou. This time he was also recruited and incorporated into the Five Tooth Army Navy, and together they guarded the troops along the river and marched eastward. Yang Qin was at Li Zhigao's side at this time. People around me naturally had a closer look at the battle to capture Jiangzhou.

Feng Liao compared the similarities and differences between the two letters and found that there were indeed some very inconspicuous details. If Han Qian hadn't reminded him directly, he might not have been able to spot them. He pondered for a long time and then asked: "What if Li Zhigao is Lu Qingxia's secret agent?" , but the problem is how can Lu Qingxia be sure that Li Zhigao can be used by her? Li Zhigao is not a person who can be controlled better than Li Pu!"

It is not difficult to understand that Lu Qingxia can control Li Pu. After all, Li Pu mainly relied on Lu Qingxia to get to where he is today. Li Pu cannot do without Lu Qingxia, at least he needs to be tied to Lu Qingxia. Only in this way can he maintain his power at this time, but how could a figure like Li Zhigao easily become a puppet controlled by others?

"In the year when Taizu Jiu of Liang Dynasty killed Emperor Zhaozong of the previous dynasty, two young sons in the clan died later, but I sent people to secretly dig the tombs of these two young sons, but they were all empty!" Han Qian said.

"What?" Feng Liao never thought of this possibility, but in this way, the logic of many of Han Qian's guesses became clear.

Feng Liao sat there in awe. The little secret Han Qian said shocked him so much that he didn't know what to say for a long time.

Is it possible that Li Zhigao was one of the two former clan members who disappeared that year?

Feng Liao also deeply felt the gap between him and Han Qian. It was probably this invisible huge gap that prevented him from seeing anything suspicious about Li Zhigao, right?

After a long while, Feng Liao swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty: "The situation is more complicated than I thought, but it is a big taboo in anyone's eyes for you to go to Jinling and seize military power from Li Pu.

, Your Majesty, there is really no way to retreat! Feng Liao said something taboo, Your Majesty, you handed over the military power today. No matter how magnanimous your intention is, in the eyes of His Highness, it is just "the Duke of Zhou is afraid of the day of rumors, and Wang Mang is humble and has not usurped it."
