In the darkness of rain and snoirling in the air before dao navy vessels sailed away fro three men who played a critical role in the world today—Li shi+ Lu personally accompanied them, the Shao Shuai Army was temporarily handed over to the Junshi+ [, one civil, one military
On board the two shi+ps, there were a total of a hundred and fifty Flying Cloud Guards, thewithin the Shao Shuai Army, hence there was no worry that they would leak any infor on a row of food and fresh water containers at the stern of the shi+p, taking turns reading the letters sent by Song shi+dao
Finished reading, Xu Ziling handed the letter back to Kou Zhong, and said with a laugh, “Our efforts were not in vain Although Song ErGe did not mention the developzhu even for a word, it see to keep him there and asked hi Horse Ranch treasury It can be seen that Shang Meiren has very great i cheerfully said, “They are both experiencing faht, and have the opportunity to nurture their affection, naturally it would be where the water flows, a canal is for ErGe, to tell him about the current situation, and ask hizhu, and then ask Fazhu for instructions That will be successfully accos aresaid, “I also want to ask you a question, how much confidence do you have to be able to convince your future father-in-law?”
Kou Zhong replied, “It will depend on what kind of person Li shi+min is and whether just like me, he can obtain Fazhu’s favor”
“Do you have any contingency plans?” Xu Ziling asked
Ss will be extremely thorny, therefore, we must make every effort to convince him”
The sound of footsteps was heard
Li shi+’s other side, and said with a sigh, “I can’t sleep”
Xu Ziling said sy’s heart must be full of contradictions and pain”
Li shi+ht? My heart now sees to tackle, endless doubts and pains; I really want to get drunk and forget the cold and ruthless reality”
The river breeze brought rain and snow, the cold air was suffocating
Kou Zhong spoke heavily, “You, LaoGe answer my three questions first”
Taken aback, Li shi+ said, “The first question, does shi+di [your esteemed little brother] wants to put you to death?”
Li shi+min was in a daze for half a day, he nodded and said, “That is certainly the case”
Kou Zhong continued to ask, “How about lingxiong [your estee ruefully, Li shi+reat threat to his eo into battle, precisely because he wants to suppressmilitary service”
“I want an affir
Li shi+ [brother king] wants to killsaid, “These two answers, no one in the world does not know, the third question is thezun [your esteemed father] stirred his desire to commit murder toward you?”
Indescribable sorrow appeared on Li shi+min’s face, his two eyes e look, as he cast his gaze into the depths of the rain and snow, he sighed and said, “When I found out that Fuhuang executed Jing Shu [uncle],finally died out With one heart and one ht the rivers and ht about the issue of reward, but the development of the situation has forced me step by step to a dead end I’ would put those who have been following me to death and their family exterminated, and then the officers and soldiers under my command stationed on the outside will rise up and declare independence, which will ’s rivers and mountains all split up and in pieces Ay!”
Kou Zhong slapped his thigh and said, “shi+ really understands people In your current situation, you are taking a step back, so that you won’t be put to death Therefore, for your own sake, for the sake of your wife, children and relatives, for your subordinates and their families, even more, for the common people of the world, you o all-out to deal with people who are father and son and brothers to you in na - to the end, to fight for the final victory To paraphrase Lao Ba’s fah can survive”
Shaken, Li shi+h can survive?”
Kou Zhong reached out to put his arm around his shoulder, and said, “Since we all becoht to you in everything Let us ixiong successfully defeat Liu Heita, he will return in triumph to the imperial court, to show off that his talent is not inferior to you And then the imperial concubines under the dezun to ’an, and strip off your ht back, you will be put to death Ziling and I will acco to show off their th [idiom: to bluff], to impeach you wantonly without any scruple, to advance move by move By the time they are so pleased as to lose their sense of measure [idiom], ill use the ten-thousand-jun-thunderboltyou in Chang’an Xiaodi can guarantee that when the tiuilty conscience, you will feel greatly delighted, because you have had enough! Ha! This is the best opportunity to see who is your trusted aide or friend who are loyal to you”
Li shi+ Di’s [older and younger brother king, respectively] coalition forces are already beyond what uards are firu and Yuwen, two clans’ h you down”
Kou Zhong looked at Xu Ziling and said, “Shall I tell hi replied, “We are all brothers, why ?”
Li shi+min revealed an astonished and puzzled expression
Kou Zhong chuckled softly and said, “shi+ Treasure-house not only has storehouse within a storehouse, but it also has real and fake storehouses This storehouse was really prepared for Yang Su in the past to support his rebellion, a n of Lu Miaozi Inside, there are large quantities of superior quality weaponry, and there is a secret path leading to the outside of the city If we use it properly, we can deploy a 3,000-man wonder-troops inside the storehouse This aspect will be provided by uarantee that all are martial art masters each one able to block one hundred, ould you be afraid of his Niang’s Changlin Aruards?”
Li shi+min’s entire body was violently shaken, he spoke in disbelief, “Unexpectedly there is such an astonishi+ng thing?”
Xu Ziling said, “This, he was tongue-tied for quite a while, and then he looked at Kou Zhong and said, “If you deploy your troops to Bashu and acquire Hanzhong, wouldn’t it be easy to invade Chang’an?”
Sinal plan, too bad it was spoiled by our shi+ Xianzi Feixuan did not tell you?”
Li shi+min shook his head with blank expression, and spoke heavily, “She did not! I only know you, Kou Zhong, let go of the opportunity to strike and defeat our Li Tang, and are helping me instead Such a broad-minded and open character, upon self-inspection, I, Li shi+ the horse’s butt, it will still be difficult for hed and said, “It should be Xiao Zhong who express his gratitude He is having a headache because he ht have to beco to take his place!”
Li shi+min’s pair of eyes shot a resolute expression, he spoke heavily, “I realize now! You guys are really good towishy-washy, without enough accomplishment, with failures in abundance, how can I deserve to be your brother?”
The rain and snow ended with the dawn, the threebreakfast together, in quite a leisure and relaxed atreed to support Li shi+ Lu did not want to have a close relationshi+p with hi on the other warshi+p
Kou Zhong suddenly laughed and said, “shi+ risk by taking you to go to Lingnan?”
Xu Ziling and Li shi+ to if this matter was leaked out, it would be difficult for Li shi+ with foreign enee, Li shi+min said in astonishment, “Could it be it is not like what you said, to show respect toward Song Fazhu, to state clearly my determination by my action, and to persuade hi suddenly changed the subject, “Does shi+ have blood relationshi+p with Hu people [non-Han]?”
