In the extremely stern voice, Li Li looked sternly at Liu Fan and Liu Dan, who were trying to argue with His Highness, without raising his eyebrows, he said sharply, "Where are the guards in front of the palace? Drag these two thieves out of the palace." door, beheaded in front of the palace, and the dead body for three days, so that we can see and hear!"

"Li Li is a traitor, dare you! I am the clan of the Han Dynasty, and the villain dare to kill my brothers!" Hearing Li Li's words, all the officials in the hall were terrified, and the two brothers Liu Fan and Liu Dan were even more terrified. After hearing the sound, Liu Dan was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground on the spot. Liu Fan was better, and angrily scolded Li Li hoarsely.

It's a pity that Li Li didn't even blink his eyes, and waved his sleeves in a cold voice: "It's so noisy, if you really don't repent, if you drag it on, you'll be beheaded immediately!"

"Li Bandit'an dares to bully my Liu clan like this, he will surely die in the future." Amid the hysterical curses, four burly armored guards dragged Liu Fan and Liu Dan brothers backwards and strode out. As soon as he stepped through the palace gate, Liu Fan's yelling stopped abruptly, as if his throat was pinched, and he could no longer make a sound.

Li Li, who was standing on the upper steps of the main hall, turned a blind eye to all this and said with a stern expression: "From now on, the general Fu Wan and Yilang Pang Xi will be appointed as the general's subordinates. If there is any disobedience, we will be executed!"

After finishing speaking, Li Li casually threw the Son of Heaven Sword to Li Zhi, waved his sleeves, and strode away in stride.

At this time, a shrill voice suddenly sounded in the hall, it was still from the mouth of Zhongchang Attendant Dong Hong: "The discussion is over, retreat from the court!"

Chapter 812

The spring is bright and the weak willows support the wind.

From noon to noon, it is warm and harmonious.

Outside the west gate, Wangjun Pavilion.

This small pavilion is located next to the plank road, which is the only way to go to Liangzhou from the west.

Once upon a time, Li Li led his troops past Wangjun Pavilion several times, coming and going, no less than ten times.

Four years ago in the early summer, Li Li brought [-] plays from here to Wuwei County, when Li Jue, Cai Yong and others came to see him off.At the beginning of spring three years ago, it was also here, Li Jue and Cai Yong went out of the city for more than ten miles to meet each other, and waited in the pavilion for half a day. It was not until evening that Li Li came back with thousands of horsemen.

In the fall of that year, after the Chang'an Rebellion was put down, Li Xin, Dong Wan, Ren Hongchang, Dian Wuxia, Cai Yan and Chen Yu planted hundreds of fruit trees around the pavilion for pedestrians to come and go. Rest, it is used for sharpening and quenching thirst.Since then, the general's mansion and soldiers have come to take care of it every month, so that there are more than ten families purposely settling here, reclaiming hundreds of acres of cultivated land around, and taking care of these fruit trees.

After three years, the two or three hundred fruit trees in the past have changed drastically.The nearby people did not know where to move hundreds of fruit trees, and planted all the fruit trees on the hillside north of Wangjun Pavilion, turning it into an orchard covering an area of ​​[-] mu.

A few days ago, Li Li accidentally heard Cai Yan mention that there are apricot blossoms all over the mountains and plains, which are really beautiful. The implication is that he wants to bring his family to come here for an outing.It's a pity that Li Li was busy with military and political affairs and rarely had time to spare, so he laughed it off at the time and didn't make a positive statement.

However.Today, after the imperial court, when there were still two bleeding heads hanging in front of the Changle Palace, a lingering solemn aura was condensed over the entire Chang'an City.Li Li suddenly took his family out of the city on a whim, and the destination was the Wangjunting Orchard mentioned by Cai Yan.

However, there are several other cars driving with Li Li's family this time.Immediately following the general's mansion was Li Li's younger brother Li Xian and his newlywed wife Zhao Yu, and then Da Qiao's car, and the people traveling with the car were naturally Li Xian, Zhao Yun, Zhou Yu and them. accompanying guard.

Facing the rising sun, more than a dozen chariots and hundreds of armored cavalry walked slowly.It took an entire hour before arriving at the destination Wangjun Pavilion.

As Cai Yan said, Wangjun Pavilion is surrounded by apricot blossoms all over the mountains, and the apricot blossoms are as white as jade in the shape of snowflakes.And it is pure white with a charming pink color, which is endearing and beautiful.

Not long after, the soldiers set up guards around the orchard.A group of female family members got off the carriage one after another.Walking together; a few naughty children jumped into the orchard, and the rest of the children who hadn't learned to walk were held in the arms of the maid and looked around.

"Brother Siam is getting married tomorrow, so you don't have to follow me today, just stay with Yuer well. Communicating more before marriage will help enhance the relationship between husband and wife! Hahaha"

In the gazebo, Li Li, who was about to sit down, turned his head and caught a glimpse of his younger brother Li Xian following him. He couldn't help but tease him, and then drove him into the Xinglin.Chase Zhao Yu who was taken away by Li Xin and others.

After Li Xian left, there were only Li Li, Li Zhi, Zhou Yu and Zhao Yun left in the pavilion.

Obviously.This time, Li Li took both public and private interests into account. He took his wife and children for an outing together, and also intended to have a heart-to-heart conversation with Zhou Yu and Zhao Yun.

Following the maidservants spread brocade silk on the stone table, served the prepared wine and dishes, and then the soldiers brought the wine jar on the stove.After everything was settled, Li Li waved his hand lightly, and all the servants and soldiers retreated. Only Li Zhi sat by the stove looking after the fragrant wine, adding some medicinal ingredients to the wine jar from time to time.

"I just went to court, and I haven't had time to eat a hot meal. Presumably the two of you are the same. Just in time, with the apricot blossoms in the garden, we can enjoy the flowers and drink while waiting. Wouldn't it be beautiful! Hehehe "

After sitting around the table, seeing Zhou Yu and Zhao Yun's slightly reserved expressions, Li Li smiled heartily, and then poured fine wine for them himself, indicating that they don't have to be restrained, just feel free.

"Thank you, my lord, for the wine!" After expressing their thanks in a respectful voice, Zhou Yu and Zhao Yun held up a cup of wine with Li Li. After drinking a glass of wine, the expressions on the faces of the two couldn't help but relax.

"A leisure time like today is really rare for my lord. Zilong and I followed all the way, but we disturbed my lord's enjoyment of flowers and play, and begged my lord for forgiveness. Hehehe" Sure enough, Zhou Yu is worthy of being extremely smart After realizing that Li Li was really in a good mood, he immediately relaxed his mind and his words became casual.

Li Li put down the food chopsticks (chopsticks) lightly, raised a cup to signal for the two to drink together, and then nodded happily: "To be honest with Gongjin, it is true. In a blink of an eye, Hao'er and the others are already two or three years old, but I once They have never taken their mother and son out of the city to play, so that Hao'er and the others have grown up so much that they have never been out of Meiwu. Today is rare, so I will take them out for a walk and have a look, so as not to leave regrets in the future."

Speaking of this, Li Li showed a rare warmth, with a knowing smile on his face.This is the expression of true feelings, and it also moved Zhou Yu and Zhao Yun when they saw it, touched the softest part of their hearts, and couldn't help showing warm smiles on their faces.

Indeed, looking at the many beauties wandering in the apricot grove, it is truly a delight to the eye and the mind.Accompanied by the innocent laughter and frolics of the children, the eyes full of fresh green hair, accompanied by the breeze, and dotted with the scorching sun, this scene is truly intoxicating and warm.

Afterwards, the three chatted in a low voice while eating wine, and laughed heartily from time to time, very harmonious and comfortable.

Hot wine was still boiling on the stove next to it, and the scarlet charcoal was burning in harmony. The fine wine exudes a rich and mellow aroma under the simmering fire, which is refreshing.

After a long while, the food and drink were removed, and the maidservant put on the cakes again. At this moment, Li Li beckoned for Li Zhi to sit down as well, and the four of them chatted while drinking.

"Recently, there have been a lot of gossip in the city, and many caring people have made a big fuss about the deeds of the two of you, exaggerating them wantonly, with sinister intentions!" Slowly putting down the wine bottle, Li Li said in a soft voice.

Zhou Yu and Zhao Yun nodded lightly after hearing the words, their expressions were a little melancholy, they were obviously troubled by the rumors, but they couldn't argue with each other, it was extremely miserable.

After a while, Zhou Yu sighed softly: "The rumors are as fierce as tigers. I didn't take it seriously before, but now I am very distressed. Therefore, today my lord will behead Liu Fan and Liu Dan, the masterminds of spreading rumors. I strongly agree. We must not be soft on these people with ulterior motives, otherwise these people will have no fear, become more unscrupulous, and do whatever they want."

While speaking, Zhou Yu paused, then looked at Li Li with a frank expression, and said frankly: "The last general originally wanted to defend himself against the Battle of Anyi, pretending that he didn't know that Sun Ce was trapped in the prefect's mansion, so Only then did he commit an unforgivable mistake. But now, the last general does not want to deceive the lord. The Battle of Anyi is indeed an act that the last general knowingly committed. In front of myself. Because of this, there was the subsequent act of arrogance, so that thousands of soldiers lost their lives because of my mistake. Today, the last general apologized to the lord face to face. No matter how the lord punishes him, the last general will never complain! "

"Boom!" Zhou Yu got up and knelt in front of Li Li before he finished speaking, and bowed his head to apologize.

The moment Zhou Yu knelt on the ground, Li Li stretched out his hand to grab him, then got up and helped him up, and sat back to his original position.And Zhao Yun, who was about to speak at the side, was stopped by Li Li's raised hand, so Zhao Yun sat down angrily with a stunned expression, and stopped talking.

After pushing Zhou Yu down to his seat, Li Li casually poured a glass of wine for the two of them, and said frankly: "I already knew the merits and demerits of the Anyi war. Compassion is not unforgivable. In the past, when Gong Jin joined me, he said that he would not be an enemy of Sun Ce in this life. For this reason, I also made a promise that one day I will forgive Sun Ce's life, including his family.

Therefore, I had the opportunity to kill Sun Ce at the foot of Dongyuan City, but in the end I spared his life, granted his request and gave him the emperor's edict.It's just that I was very displeased with Sun Ce's subsequent actions. He took advantage of both sides, raped and cheated, not only recruited tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, but also coveted more than [-] shi of grain and grass hoarded in the east of the river. as nothing.Therefore, I deliberately punished him a little bit, let him fetch water from a bamboo basket in vain, and all his calculations were in vain. "

Speaking of this, Li Li paused for a moment, looked at Zhou Yu and said, "Today, we simply have an open and honest exchange of hearts with the ministers. It is exactly as Gong Jin thought, and I intend to use Gong Jin's hand to eliminate the battle of Anyi." Sun Ce, use this to prevent future troubles forever. Because both of you and I know Sun Ce's temper. Once trapped in the mansion and unable to break out of the siege, Sun Ce will definitely not be tied up. He will definitely fight to the end and die in the end. Therefore, Yang This is the purpose of Chou's troops besieging the county guard's mansion. They join forces with Gong Jin to force Sun Ce to submit, and he is exiled from the siege. It's a pity that you can't hide all this from Gong Jin. You saw through the mystery and staged a self-report The scene of carnage caused Sun Ce to take the opportunity to escape and survived.

As far as this matter is concerned, if you say that I am not angry at all, don't say that Gongjin doesn't believe it, even I don't believe it myself.It is said that I, Li Li, have a magnanimous mind, but I have not yet reached this level of magnanimity. The soldiers and horses under my command turned against each other, not only killing each other, but also letting go of the enemy of my life in vain.It is difficult for any prince to deal with such matters calmly, and I am no exception.However, after calming down and thinking about it afterwards, what Gongjin did was reasonable, as I fulfilled my promise once again.After all, I was the one who said something first, so how can I break my word and get fat?

Therefore, this matter ends here, and there is no need to mention it in the future.At the same time, the brotherhood between Gong Jin and Sun Ce has come to an end.I don't know if Gongjin has any objections? "

Chapter 813 Xinglin Boiled Wine 2/2

"Therefore, this matter ends here, and there is no need to mention it in the future. At the same time, the brotherhood between Gong Jin and Sun Ce also ends here. I wonder if Gong Jin has any objections?"

"Uh!" Hearing Li Li's unhurried words, the expression on Zhou Yu's face has been changing rapidly. When Li Li's last sentence fell, he looked up at Li Li in amazement.At this moment, he clearly saw Li Li's resolute expression and his undeniably sharp eyes.

Zhou Yu knew what this meant. Li Li's expression and eyes clearly told him that this was the last limit that Li Li could tolerate, and there was no possibility of giving in.

At this moment, the expression on Li Li's face was very similar to that of the morning court today, and this was Zhou Yu's first time participating in the morning court, but he happened to witness Li Li's ferocious means of killing.

That domineering arrogance firmly controlled the situation and atmosphere in the court hall, making all the veteran officials of the three dynasties who had been looking up to Zhou Yu held their breaths and didn't even dare to breathe.The powerful aura that dominates the world has always remained in Zhou Yu's mind, lingering and lingering.

It was also witnessing Li Li's arrogance and power with his own eyes that made Zhou Yu have a clearer understanding of this approachable protagonist for the first time in his life, and an indescribable awe, or fear, inexplicably arose in his heart.Because of this, he deeply realized that the protagonist he was facing had a mature mind and supreme majesty that did not match his age. Beneath that sunny smiling face was a big iron-blooded and ruthless heart. The heart is enough to cover the world, all-encompassing, with the ambition to swallow mountains and rivers, and the ability to be unpredictable.Far from being as bright as the naked eye can see.

Honestly speaking, Zhou Yu was extremely uncomfortable with Li Li's cramped change.Because this made him inexplicably feel the invisible alienation between himself and Li Li, as if the once familiar friend suddenly became very strange.It was unacceptable for a while.However, when he calmed down and thought about it carefully, he suddenly discovered that only the current Li Li can achieve fame and success, while the previous sunny boy was easier to get close to, but in the end it was difficult to achieve great things.

But now Li Licai is a real hero, with lofty ambitions in his heart, and wisdom in his belly.Can rise and hide, can bend and stretch.At first glance, he looks as sunny as the big boy next door.Gentle and casual, people can't help but get close to it.However, only after close contact can one find that his resourcefulness is as deep as the vast sea.Temperament is changeable.Sometimes stern, sometimes wise, sometimes reasonable, sometimes domineering, making people elusive and unpredictable.

Precisely because of this, all the generals of the Xiliang Army admired and feared the commander-in-chief of the three armies.Willing to be driven by it, but dare not have the slightest desire to despise the superior.The soldiers of the whole army are loyal to the coach Li Li.I am willing to die for it, bathe in blood on the battlefield, and die without regret.

Zhou Yu hadn't realized this before. He subconsciously believed that the lord Li Li might not be as powerful as he imagined. Maybe he could firmly control the generals in the army, but he definitely couldn't control the entire army. .After all, the Xiliang army has a large number of soldiers and horses. The main battalion and the county soldiers add up to a total of 50 million troops. Even if the lord Li Li has all-powerful abilities, he cannot control so many soldiers.

However, the scene in Anyi City made Zhou Yu deeply realize that he was wrong. He took Li Li for granted and took Li Li too simply. He miscalculated the situation of the Xiliang Army and underestimated Li Li's control over the army. .Even the surrendered soldiers who have just been received have a deep awe of Li Li, so they will definitely not violate Li Li's will.Therefore, when he went against Li Li's wishes and ordered to attack Yang Chou's tent and drop troops, Yan Xing showed his military talisman in public, easily took back the military power from him, and then commanded the army to attack the remaining allied troops without hindrance.
