Xiaoqi

Although Liu Zhang has long been familiar with Li Li's great achievements in the past, and is envious of them, but now listening to Zhao Wei repeating it again, it is a different feeling.At this moment, his expression changed drastically, he was terrified, and many thoughts came to his mind involuntarily: "Yes, it is exactly as Zhao Wei said. Li Li is now an extremely human minister, and the emperor will give him all the rewards. In the future And what should I reward him with? The great ancestor Liu Bang has already made a custom that different surnames cannot be crowned king. In this way, there is no reward or seal, and the emperor can only abdicate to let the virtuous. Didn't it just die? The country has been handed over to others, how should I, a Yizhou pastor, deal with myself?"

Amidst the racing thoughts, Liu Zhang's suspicious and fickle nature was naturally revealed, looking forward and backward, worrying about gains and losses.

Zhao Wei didn't answer for a while, but at this moment he said quietly: "It is no exaggeration to say that Li Li has become an extremely talented minister at such a young age, and his future is limitless. It is not an exaggeration to call him a 'great talent'. If it was in a time of peace, it would not be a happy ending; but right now, when the world is in chaos, this person must be determined in the world, intending to get involved in the country and reach the supreme position."

"Yes, it is meaningless for us to discuss whether to send troops to help Zhang Lu. Sending troops is inevitable, otherwise Hanzhong will be lost. The Xiliang Army has just won the victory in the Sili War. How can Zhang Lu be the opponent of the Xiliang Army, and he will definitely lose. Once Hanzhong is lost, we will be followed by the nine counties and three vassal states of Yizhou, and even Nanman will not be spared. Yizhou enjoys the reputation of "Land of Abundance", rich in things and people , money and grain are abundant, and the treasury is full, so many princes have coveted this for a long time. And the Xiliang army occupying Hanzhong is staring at Yizhou all day long, how can Xiliang Li Li turn a blind eye and sit and watch other princes plot Yizhou?"

After adding fire again, Zhao Wei finally revealed his true intentions: "I implore my lord not to hesitate, but to continue to suffer from it. The Hanzhong war is imminent and at stake. If you hesitate again, I am afraid that Yangping Pass will be destroyed." It was captured by the Xiliang Army. Once Yangping Pass was lost, how could Zhang Lu in Hanzhong resist the brave Xiliang iron cavalry? Even if they come out in full force, I am afraid they are not the enemy of the Xiliang army, and it is absolutely impossible to take back Hanzhong County from the Xiliang army."

"Ah! This..." Liu Zhang was horrified when he heard the sound, his face changed rapidly, from red to white, as if his heart was struggling violently.

After a while, the expression on his face finally stabilized, with a solemn expression, as if he had made up his mind, and said in a deep voice: "I have made up my mind, I will send troops to Hanzhong to help Zhang Lu!"

After Zhao Wei heard the sound, he bowed his head excitedly and said, "My lord is wise, this is the good fortune of Yizhou!"

"My lord is wise!" Following Zhao Wei, everyone in the hall bowed in unison.

Facing the bowing and bowing of all the civil and military people in the hall, Liu Zhang did not have a trace of joy, but was uneasy. His heart was hanging in the air, helpless and empty.This is the first major decision he has made since he became the state pastor for more than a year, and this is exactly what he does not want to see, but the situation is compelling and he has to face it.Although he doesn't have the lofty ambition to fight for world hegemony, nor does he have the ability, but he is not willing to lose Yizhou.Forced and helpless, he finally chose to fight Li Li, because his father Liu Yan kept chanting a sentence when he was dying: "My son must keep in mind that he must always be on guard against Li Li, and he must not slack off. In the future, my Liu family will be very important in the world It may be destroyed in the hands of this person. Remember, remember."

The late father's entreaty is still in my ears. Liu Zhang once tried to forget this sentence, but the more he wanted to forget it, the more he remembered it. It lingered in his mind almost all the time, and he couldn't get rid of it.What troubled him the most was that on the wall of the inner hall in the backyard where he lived, there was still a calligraphy and painting gifted to him by Li Li when he left Chang'an, and the letter read: "A confidant in the sea is like a neighbor at the end of the world".It was Li Li's own handwriting, and he was the one who watched Li Li write these ten big characters on the brocade silk, and gave it to him as a farewell souvenir.Li Li regards him as a confidant in his life, and he also regards Li Li as his only confidant in his life.But good luck tricks people, and now the former confidantes and friends are going to meet each other in battle.

With Liu Zhang's order to dispatch troops and generals, the discussion of the State Shepherd's Mansion came to an end.

"Chang Shi took the initiative to ask the lord to lead the troops to Hanzhong. I don't know what his intention is? If Brother Zhao still thinks that Wu is a good brother who shares weal and woe, please be sure to tell the truth." After leaving the state capital, Wu Yi and Zhao Wei walked side by side. Okay, when he was parting, he suddenly pulled Zhao Wei to the side of the carriage, looked around, and asked in a low voice.

"Since the virtuous brother is asking, brother Yu should tell. They say that Li Lixiong from Xiliang is a great man, but we have no chance to meet him. This time, brother Yu will go and see for himself to see if he is as invincible as the rumors say. " After finishing speaking, Zhao Wei chuckled, then strode onto the carriage and walked away.

Watching Zhao Wei's car drive away, Wu Yi murmured softly: "This old fox is so cunning that he played Liu Jiyu around. It seems that he still has a wicked heart, and there will be no peace in Yizhou from now on."

Chapter 864 The Cooked Duck Flies Pianpian

Time flows relentlessly, regardless of whether the world is happy or sad or sad or painful, it ignores it, turns a blind eye, and still passes according to its inherent rhythm.

It ignores the world, but the world cannot ignore its existence.

"After so many days, does she still refuse to eat?"

Qiang Dao camp, inside the tent of the Chinese army.

After calling Li Zhi out of the secret room, Li Li quickly stepped forward and asked softly.

Before he finished speaking, he saw the maid coming out with a tray, and he knew the answer without Li Zhi answering.

But Li Zhi still reported the truth: "For three days and four nights, she didn't drink a drop of water. If this continues, she will starve to death. Perhaps, she has already noticed that there is a problem with the food and drinking water, so she deliberately refused to eat or drink."

"Well, there is such a possibility." Li Li nodded slightly, but his face became more and more anxious, and said in a deep voice: "Whether she knows or not, she doesn't eat or drink for three days, she doesn't want to live? It seems that this girl is trying to compete with me and is determined to hold on to the end!"

After speaking, Li Li couldn't help rubbing his temples, one head and two big, his head was swollen, and the pain was severe!

"My lord, don't worry. In the future, she will not be able to hold on any longer. In at most two days, she will have to submit obediently." Li Zhi comforted softly.

Li Li raised his sword eyebrows when he heard this: "Two more days? After two more days, she will ascend to heaven! If she doesn't eat or drink for five days, even if she doesn't die, she only has half her life left. Could it be that my great general is just like this?" Do you want to force her to death like this?"

Li Zhi shook his head upon hearing the sound: "My lord, I'm worrying too much. Fairy Mengxin is different from ordinary people, and she is also different from generals like us. She is a cultivator, and she usually devotes herself to retreat and practice. It is not surprising that she does not eat or drink for three or five days. Therefore. Will guess that nothing will happen to her if she doesn't eat for a few days. Uh, it's not good, it's a bad thing!"

With an exclamation, Li Zhi dashed to the entrance of the secret room, staring at the tight wooden floor in surprise, as if he was listening intently to the movement underground.

"What's the matter, I was surprised, what happened?" Li Li walked to Li Zhi with a stunned expression.low voice.

Li Zhi stared intently at the floor of the secret room, and said softly: "My lord, have you forgotten that Mafeisan can only paralyze people's nerves. It is non-toxic, and ordinary people can recover more than half of it in one day, and return to normal the next day. Fairy Mengxin is not an ordinary person. Although the dosage will be increased in the end, it is only for the first day. After that, one dose per day will only make her weak. But now, she has not touched a drop of water for three consecutive days. This means that she has already recovered and has the ability to escape!"

"What?" Li Li was shocked when he heard the words, his face turned livid in an instant, his sharp eyes stared at the tight-fitting floor, and his eyes suddenly flashed.Mu Ran turned her head and looked around the big tent.

In an instant, the look of shock and anger on his face quickly faded away.He regained his calm in the blink of an eye, as if nothing had happened, he walked to the handsome seat and sat down, his expression calm and unusually calm.

"Zicheng doesn't need to look any further, she's not in the secret room, she's already come out."

After a pause, Li Li's tone changed suddenly, and he said loudly: "Since the fairy has escaped, there is no need to hide, you might as well show up and see her!"

Li Zhi's expression changed upon hearing this, and he vigilantly scanned every corner of the Chinese military tent, but found nothing suspicious.Immediately, he hurriedly stood beside Li Li, and said anxiously: "My lord said she had escaped from the secret room, how did she get out? When the general opened the secret room just now to let the maidservant in to deliver meals, he saw her sitting cross-legged on the couch in the secret room." , it took only a cup of tea, how did she escape?"

Li Li smiled lightly: "Yes, as Zicheng said, Fairy Mengxin is not an ordinary person! She can walk out without breaking the secret room, and she walked in front of us without being caught by us." Notice." At the end, Li Li added: "Just when you and I were talking, she came out."

"Ah!" Li Zhi was surprised when he heard the sound, and suddenly realized: "The maid who delivered the meals?"

Before Li Li could open his mouth to speak, someone had already answered Li Zhi's question for him: "That's right! As expected of a famous general, his wit and quick thinking are amazing!"

The moment the ethereal voice reached the ears of Li Li and Li Zhi, a white figure suddenly appeared a foot away from them to the left. After staring at it, it was the Fairy Mengxin who was still locked in the secret room a moment ago. Zhang Zhi, but right now she is standing in front of Li Li's master and servant.

"Huh, huh, huh!" There was a sound of chains suddenly, and Li Zhi stepped forward to block Li Li's body. With a shake of his arms, his sleeves instantly shattered, revealing the iron chains wrapped around his arms.I saw the loose chains swaying slightly, like two silver snakes coiled around the arms, winding and circling, waiting for an opportunity to move.

"You don't know what is good or bad, you ask yourself, how does my lord treat you? When I arrested you, I couldn't bear to hurt you. When I was imprisoned, I visited you at least twice a day, and I specially hired four maids to serve in the morning and evening. Whenever you open your mouth, what will the lord do? Yes? To tell you the truth, my lord is a dragon among men, as long as the lord reveals his words, thousands of beauties will come to hear the news. However, the lord just fell in love with you, but you are stubborn If you don’t change, you insist on not following through, you even went on a hunger strike to resist these days! If the lord hadn’t been interested in you, how could you have escaped from the secret room?”

After speaking, Li Zhi shook his arms, glared at Zhang Zhi angrily, and said angrily: "Do you think I can't deal with you? If you are really so arrogant, then you are very wrong. Earlier I Waiting to set up an ambush to catch you is a strict order from the lord. You must run to ensure that you are unharmed, so that we will tie up our hands and feet and spend a lot of time working together to capture you alive. Today, if you dare to be presumptuous, I will let you see it. Great against chains!"

Zhang Zhi was moved when he heard the words, her fair cheeks were flushed and white, with a bit of shyness and youthfulness like a young girl, like a newly ripened apple, which is rosy and white, very gratifying.

"I'm unarmed now, do you want to bully the weak?" As if glaring at Li Zhi with a shameful expression, Zhang Zhi replied angrily.Immediately, she stared at Li Li with extremely complicated eyes, and said coldly: "Li Li, take care of your black-faced general, I don't want to fight today!"

"Don't you want to fight? I think you have more than enough energy, don't you? Hehehe!" Casually breaking Zhang Zhi's predicament, Li Li got up with a smile and walked to Li Zhi, with his back to Zhang Zhi, and laughed at Li Zhi. He ordered: "Zicheng don't get angry. You know I didn't intend to kill her, but now that she has come out by herself, it saves me a dilemma. You go to the secret room to wake up the maid, and tidy up the secret room by the way. It's better to smash it." , why do you need a secret room if you can’t even lock people in?”

Li Zhi was stunned when he heard the sound, pointed at Zhang Zhi, and said with a distressed face: "But she is too dangerous, and I will not be at ease in the end."

Li Li shook his head with a smile: "Don't worry, although our fairy doesn't appreciate it, he won't take revenge and deliberately murder me."

Having said that, Li Li approached Li Zhi and said in a low voice: "It seems that she wants to talk to me, and I have a way to deal with her."

Immediately, Li Li waved his hands involuntarily and said, "Zicheng doesn't need to say much, let's do it quickly. In addition, order the dining room to cook some delicious dishes with the wild vegetables and mushrooms I picked up the mountain in the morning, and prepare a jar of fine wine from the spring. See you off for the fairy. Pass the order down, all the soldiers and servants are not allowed to enter the big tent without orders, go."

"Promise." Li Zhi bowed to accept the order and left, waved his hands and screened the maidservants in the tent and the soldiers guarding the door of the big tent.

When Li Zhi left, Li Li strode down to the hall, put the four desks together, took the soft cushion that Shuai sat on and put it on the opposite side, then beckoned Zhang Zhi to come and sit down.

A pot of freshly brewed tea on the handsome table was also placed on the side table. Li Lihao poured a cup of hot tea for Zhang Zhi in his spare time, and said with a smile, "Don't worry about drinking it. You've already come out, so there's no need to drink it." Anesthesia. I have neglected you these days. There are some Mabosan in meals and drinking water. The high-quality medicinal powder developed by the genius doctor Hua Tuo after many years is non-toxic and harmless. Before that, these medicinal powders were specially used to treat wounded soldiers in the army, so as to prevent them from dying of pain. I didn't expect it to be used on you this time. body. Please forgive me for such a helpless move."

Zhang Zhi gently picked up the teacup and sipped the tea. After hearing the words, he glared at Li Li angrily.But no matter how you look at it, this look is a bit winking, at least in Li Li's view, so that he was in a daze, staring straight at Zhang Zhi, and his throat twitched a few times involuntarily.

"Puchi!" Seeing Li Li's dumbfounded look, Zhang Zhi couldn't help smiling, and said with light teeth, "I heard what you said to Li Zhi the day before yesterday. Do I really look like her? Since she is your wife, with your current position of power, why can't you keep your woman and child? Are you deliberately avoiding her, or are you despising him, and deliberately abandoning her and your child?"

Li Li was startled when he heard the words, as if he knew what Zhang Zhi would say.Immediately, his expression changed suddenly, his face was dark, and unprecedented melancholy and loneliness appeared in his eyes.But these sad emotions only stayed on his face for a moment, and they disappeared in a blink of an eye, and then his expression remained normal.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Li smiled and said: "Maybe the fairy heard it wrong. My wife, concubine and children are all in Chang'an, and they live a good life. Maybe the fairy has also heard about it. I, Li Li, have a passionate and romantic nature, but I have never let anyone down." I love my woman, and I will never abandon her and my child. No one in this world can take my woman and child away from me, not before, and never in the future, unless one day I die in battle or was killed."

Zhang Zhi nodded slightly, and said softly: "Although you are avoiding my questions, or you are unwilling to bring up the past, I can see that you seem to have a lot of thoughts. Or, you look very young , but with a maturity and stability that is incompatible with your age. I think you must have experienced many things, and these memories are deeply hidden in your heart, and you don’t want to mention them to anyone. But even if you don’t tell them, I can feel them. Forget it, since you don't want to tell, I won't ask, but you can't hide it from me."
