No matter how much light there is, there will always be darkness.

Li Gu rubbed his face with his hands to drive away the solid and heavy feeling of fatigue on his body.

He has not had a rest for two days and two nights.

He was still the same as before when King Zhao was around. Xu Ziwen handed over his pulse and ignored him after he left his work... This noble man could not change his previous habits and was not pragmatic.

How to dispatch personnel, how to connect with the Pu family, how to arrange vehicles, how to contact Jianzhou, how to install the selected personnel to Jianzhou... How to open joints along the roads along the way, all these specific things fell on Li Gu's head.

The Pu family also provided some help, such as transportation capacity, the relationship between people who passed the level, etc. If it weren't for this, it would be difficult for Li Gu to succeed even if he had three heads and six arms.

Now, taking advantage of this grand wedding, Li Gu brought out the military officers from more than a hundred royal palaces, the military officers who were dependent on Xu Ziwen and the last convoy out of the city. They left the city from the west gate and happened to be staggered with the most lively place, and the military officers guarding the city gate had already prepared the orders, and there was no problem with everything.

These hundreds of military officers changed into clothes and dressed up like merchants and friends. They leaned around the big cart provided by the Pu family, chatting and laughing casually, and their expressions were extremely relaxed.

Of course, the topic of many people is at the sensational wedding in front of you.

"A villain is arrogant when he is proud." An old man, who is in his forties and from the Zhao Prince's Mansion, said disdainfully: "I have witnessed it with my own eyes that the old mansion of Nan'an was called a drama troupe during the Chinese New Year. When people enter the front door and move furniture to pawn shops at the back door. That joke made our old prince laugh for a long time."

"Just Xu Zixian, I think it was a lucky moment."

"I heard that this man is a slut, who dares to fight and fight. The King of Qi is ahead, now the old prime minister and the officials from Fuzhou City. He helped the slut to block the knife and rushed forward for them. It's ridiculous that Xu Zi really thought he had accomplished anything."

"He is far from our young master."

"Xu Zi first killed people too ruthlessly, and the conquest was too fierce, and it was too harmful to the harmony of heaven, and it was destined to have a good end." A prince's mansion said with compassion: "If we treat people, we should be like our young master. We should treat our subordinates with gentle means, not cruel, elegant, gentle and polite. This is what a monarch looks like."

"Speaking of this, our third brother looks a bit similar to Xu Zixian..."

"It's almost the same."

Li Gu looked at everyone with some anger, but his identity was only an aide. These military generals were built by Xu Ziwen to fight against his third brother Xu Ziwei in the mansion. Xu Ziwen's way of controlling the word "honor".

He was gentle and meticulous to his subordinates. He would reward him every festival. The noble prince never kept the money he received, and most of the money he received was scattered to these subordinates.

As long as all military officers encounter difficulties, no matter whether something happens at home or the elderly or children are sick or need money, Xu Ziwen will help him as long as he knows.

This is actually true, and Xu Zixian did the same.

But in addition to grace, we must also clearly distinguish between rewards and punishments. If we still blindly give grace, we will become good people. Xu Ziwen has never punished these military officers in front of us, and at most he said a few words. They violated the ban, made mistakes, made small mistakes, embezzled military pay, and fed their own pockets. Xu Ziwen covered up these things for them. Although this method can make some people work wholeheartedly, just like the group of people in front of us, Xu Ziwen used grace to win over into a party. Because of Xu Ziwen's identity as a follower, he could only take risks and participate in this adventure.

Due to Xu Ziwen's indulgence and habitual attitude, the people in front of him, except for King Zhao, who made them afraid of Xu Ziwei at most.

As for a staff member like Li Gu, he is actually quite a decent identity in the Zhao royal family, and King Zhao is a little polite, but in front of these soldiers and gangsters, Li Gu's status is just like that. Everyone is just playing for King Zhao and the young master.

"Don't make noise when you leave the city." Li Gu said with a serious expression, but his attitude was quite gentle: "Don't go in groups after leaving the city, it's too conspicuous. You go in batches, and after you arrive in Jianzhou, there are people who will come to join us."

"Mr. Li is so careful. We have never seen any storms. Mr. Li is at ease." An old army leader who has been following King Zhao since the Yanjing period was smooth and useless for the rest of his life. But now he came forward to Li Gu. Li Gu looked at the half-white veteran and felt a little disgusted, but he had no choice. If Xu Ziwen had elite soldiers and strong generals, of course he would not use such people, but in the current situation, it would be good to have these people.

"What you need to do is to go to Jianzhou to work with that person." Li Gu was exhausted physically and mentally, but he still warned these people: "As long as you do, use the money and military supplies you have at your disposal, bringing more people, and waiting for King Zhao to be useful in your future. You usually shout that the benefits are not enough, and now fame and wealth are in front of you. The more people you bring, the higher your power will be in the future. Don't mess up such a good thing."

Before and after, including the personnel sent by Li Gu, most of them were military officers from the team to the deputy chief.

Of course, these people were quite unsuccessful in the Zhao Palace. This time, they dared to take risks and take risks to gain higher fame and wealth.

Everyone was still listening to Li Gu's words, but some people still muttered: "Mr. Li is too trusting us? I am from a general family of great generals. My father was a martial arts scholar. He has been a martial arts scholar since he was a child. He is skilled in archery and horses, and is familiar with military books. Those mud legs are worthy of fighting with us? As long as we work together, we will lead troops to train troops and bring people and horses in our own hands. When His Highness Zhao sends out his troops, he will immediately fight back. This is a matter of being agreed, and we will never do anything bad."

"What I mean is that Li Kaiming is just a poor army, with no way to rebel. What can he have?"

"Compare bows and horses, fights, or military tactics?"

"After all, we are from Zhenggenzi, so Mr. Li, don't underestimate us."

"Don't worry, I will never mess it up."

A large number of people seemed to have opened the valve and loudly promoted their determination, which was actually expressing their dissatisfaction with Li Gu.

This time the head of the company is here

Some people seem to be Xu Ziwen and Li Gu is just an errand runner.

This guy is so hateful that he is so arrogant that he looks like a person in charge.

Li Gu was helpless. The people in front of him were swaying their arms and fists, and they looked like they didn't see Li Kaiming and others. They were indeed from generals, but in addition to learning archery and horse fighting since childhood and reading a few military books, they were afraid that they had fought dogs and cocks over the years, drinking and playing money, and having sex with prostitutes and chasing for fun. Their money, grain and salary were not enough, so they had to borrow money and squander money often. This kind of thing was too common in this group.

This time, they were ready to go to Jianzhou's battlefield immediately. In addition to playing for the opportunity, they also wanted to gain enough benefits for themselves.

At this time, Li Gu reminded them that if you pour cold water on them, how could these people listen to them?

"Okay, okay." Li Gu was quite annoyed and interrupted these people's words. He was too tired. He had been doing these things for the past two days without sleep. But the men in front of him took it for granted. No one took the initiative to go forward and no one took the initiative to share the burden for Li Gu. At this time, the eight generals of Qiu were completely contemptuous in their eyes. It is conceivable that if these guys really succeeded, they would have the attitude towards Li Gu.

Li Gu no longer wanted to say anything, pointed to the east gate and said, "The lights are already on there. I want to rush over to watch this big excitement. I will not accompany you. The city gate in Qiantou has already opened, so everyone can go away quickly."

At this moment, everyone was speechless, only a few people muttered: "Why don't you leave tomorrow? Fuzhou City is so lively tonight. If we don't leave and get together to drink and watch the fun, how beautiful it would be."

This made everyone sigh. Li Gu was disgusted with him and didn't want to say a word. Fortunately, the military officer guarding the city gate had already opened the city gate in the dark, and the convoy and the crowd began to flow out continuously. Li Gu didn't want to stay for a moment. The city was focused on the wedding at the east gate. Li Gu was also anxious to see the situation there, so he quickly got on the horse and walked forward quickly under the corner of the city wall along the road to the east gate.

At this moment, Li Gu completely relaxed, and all the chess pieces were successfully laid out. If the following things develop rapidly, Xu Zi's efforts to enter Fujian Road first will completely fail. At least under the control of King Zhao, Fujian Road will become a whole.

Xu Zixian had only one chance, which was to openly raise the flag to rebel.

At that time, his identity as a royal family member and his bloodline would become his shackles.

With such an identity and a rebellion, who would believe in his character?

The image and reputation they created before will instantly sweep into the bottom.

The places that are captured by a strong army will be difficult to manage.

Officials are dissatisfied, the people are disinterested, and merchants are afraid, and the army will become an uncontrollable beast.

Maybe years of business success will eliminate these negative effects, but at that time, how much could Xu Zixian get?

Anyone with a little rationality will retreat and operate self-protection in the Dongfan period without trying to get involved in Fujian Road.

After King Zhao opened his palace, he had the power to appoint and remove officials. What would Li Gu get then?

In the night wind and on the horse's back, Li Gu, who was exhausted both physically and mentally, suddenly smiled.

...

“It’s not that simple…”

In the mansion of Nan'an Marquis, someone sighed: "The foundation of the Zhongshan King was always in the Dongfan, and it formed its own system. The roads in Fujian were complicated and the dependence of several senior officials seemed optimistic, but there were so many officials, minor officials, imperial guards and generals of the Fang army, ordinary soldiers, outside prefectures and military counties, so many officials, civil gentry, students, merchants, and royal families in the city. These forces each had their own ideas and had their own opinions. The general idea now is to want the Zhongshan King to protect everyone with strong force. But if the Zhongshan King used the method of governing the Dongfan to govern the Fujian Road, the rebound would probably be greater than the support."

Everyone was silent for a moment, and that was indeed the case.

Xu Zixian established a more efficient administration in the Dongfan period, which was well-off and well-off, accepted supervision, and integrated officials. The power of public supervision was far greater than that on Fujian Road.

If you go to Fujian Road, how to integrate the forces from all over the world and utilize the forces of all parties instead of dispersing them will be the first problem after Xu Zi first entered Fujian Road.

This wedding is indeed a predecessor, but it only makes the haters hate them even more.

"The extraordinary rank of the King of Zhongshan." Lin Dingyi said firmly: "Nothing will stump him."

...

"You useless thing, you will be cowardly for the rest of your life, and you will be cowardly if you want to call your son?" Chen Man's wife looked like a cat with a trampled tail, with her teeth and claws open, wishing she could fly on Chen Man's face and scratch her face full of blooming.

Chen Man dodged in a very embarrassing manner, and explained while hiding: "We don't have deep hatred between each other and there is nothing that cannot be resolved. King Zhongshan and King Zhao will fight. Will we get involved in this matter?"

"Fuck!" Chen Man's wife spat and cursed: "Can the second brother and Xu Ziwen be exposed? Can you not even want your son for wealth? You are willing to let me go, but I can't let you go. Besides, who gave you your fame and fortune now? Xu Zixian is so great, but he raised thousands of soldiers on the broken island and defeated the pirates by chance. Now everyone is rumored that he is powerful, and you also want to go, lick the ditch and bastard, you don't think about it. You are still a figure in front of King Zhao. When you come to Xu Zi first, you have to kill your son first, and then kneel down to hold his stinky feet. If you want to do it, I would rather die than obey."

Chen Man was spitting all over his wife, and the nobles around him wanted to laugh but didn't dare. Chen Man was also the deputy governor, and a big man with real power in the city.

And as Chen Man's wife said, the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion is now very close to the Zhao Mansion. There are rumors that the King of Zhao plans to recommend it to the court and promote Chen Man to Duke, but this promotion still has to wait for the opportunity, such as Chen Man obtains a military merit or receives rewards overwork. Now both conditions are not yet ripe, so they can only wait.

"Let's take a look and talk about it..." Chen Man's original firm heart was also influenced by his wife's words. As his wife said, it was not yet the last moment, but he really was not in a hurry to make a decision.

...

"I'm here to congratulate you on behalf of His Highness Zhao."

There are endless crowds in front of Changwen Hou’s mansion,

Living in a yard, we will have contacts with each other during weddings and funerals. The powerful families of nobles are difficult for ordinary people to cross. For powerful people with a considerable status, such as Xu Ziwen, the Changwen Marquis Mansion in front of him is where he often comes.

When Xu Ziwen arrived, he almost did not attract much attention or attention, although he represented His Highness King Zhao.

Although the elders of the Chen family came out to greet him and invited him to the main hall all the way, this was a privilege that only a few VIPs had, Xu Ziwen still felt obvious coldness and alienation.

This is also a normal thing... Xu Ziwen thought indifferently that the Zhao Palace and the Zhongshan Palace would inevitably have a fierce confrontation, or even a battle that determines life and death. Of course, the Changwen Palace is on the side of the Zhongshan Palace, and there is no second possibility.

In this way, how could Changwen Hou Mansion be enthusiastic about itself?

Xu Ziwen did not have any emotional fluctuations. Since he came, he would be at ease. He was calm, drank and ate, and dealt with the rest of the guests, showing the style of the powerful children of aristocratic families. He seemed to be completely unhappy about the marriage in front of him...

Not far away, Chen Dujing, Chen Duguang, Chen Duli, Chen Duzhong, Chen Zhengzhi, Li Mingyu, Yang Fu and other core figures of Changwen Hou Mansion gathered together. Everyone frowned and looked at Xu Ziwen who was calm in the hall.

"This is abominable thing!" Chen Du said angrily: "Why did King Zhao send him here?"

Everyone has the same feeling, but it still makes people feel weird when Chen Duguang said this.

The man who strongly advocated a marriage with the Zhao Prince's Mansion back then was the old man with white beards. However, everyone present knew that if anyone dared to tell the old story and slapped Chen Duguang in the face, the saliva that Chen Duguang squirted on his face. For his own face, it would be better not to tell the slap in the face.

"I don't understand very much." Chen Dujing's face, which had always been easy-going but solemn, was also a little confused. He said: "It is impossible for King Zhao to not know his son's thoughts..."

Chen Duzhong sneered: "His son is more than a thousand miles away from Mingda. Now he is coming to show his face, and he is simply ignorant."

Chen Zhengzhi smiled and said, "Xu Ziwen is very likely to think that he is better than Mingda. King Zhao asked him to come, but he might want to tell him to give up. It is hard to say whether he really gave up."

"Boss, don't go anywhere else." Chen Dujing ordered: "The team we welcome will arrive soon. Don't make any accidents or make jokes, and ask outsiders to spread it. It will make you feel annoyed. When Mingda heard it, he felt even more displeased."

"Mingda knows about Xu Ziwen." Chen Zhengzhi said without much care: "Mingda has a grand and generous personality, so she won't feel displeased with her younger sister because of this little thing. He is very arrogant..."
