Several sergeants wearing hakama pleated military robes strode into the official office, walked straight into the hall, crossed their hands and asked, "May I ask if Gao Pingnan Li Shushu is in the hall?"
Li Taishang was wary and did not stand up to answer immediately, but Pei Han had already stood up, pointed at Li Tai and said with a smile: "This is Li Shushu, what are you waiting for to ask?"
After hearing this, the sergeant who asked the question bowed to Li Taixian, bowed his head and said, "My lord, Lord Wu'an, Li Kaifu, heard that Li Zuosu had joined the Taifu government, and he was in Zhili this month, so he came here to express his congratulations, for fear of disturbing Cao Cao.
It's official business, so let me inform you first."
Hearing this, everyone in the hall stood up one after another. Pei Han seemed to be worried that Li Tai did not know the identity of the other party, so he came closer and whispered: "Li Xianqing, Duke of Wu'an, is the younger brother of Duke Li Wansui of Yangping. Both brothers are Daxingtai's confidants."
…”
Of course Li Yuan, brother Li Mu, and Li Tai knew about it. He had met Li Yuan when he was in Hulao, and even regarded Li Yuan as a backup partner for a time, but before he could find a chance to join him, the demand was gone.
No longer so urgent.
Li Yuan's younger brother Li Mu suddenly came to visit, which made him curious. What was the other person's plan? Looking at Pei Han, they seemed to have lost contact with each other.
"I'm really flattered that Li Kaifu actually came to greet me in person, please come quickly, please come quickly!"
Li Tai suppressed the doubts in his heart and quickly stood up and went out to greet him with his colleagues.
Li Mu was in his thirties, with strong arms and strong waist. He looked very brave, and he looked even more majestic and majestic when he was guarded by his entourage.
When he saw Mo Cao and others walking out, he took a step forward, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "I happen to be in Zhixi Military City today, so I took the liberty of visiting and disturbing you all."
"Mr. Wu An is so polite. I have nothing to do. My colleagues and I are congratulating Li Lang on his entry into the record room. You are here, but you are welcome from afar!"
Pei Han made the first move and spoke up. The enthusiastic look on his face made Li Tai confirm that there must be a good friendship between them.
"Oh? That's really gratifying!"
When Li Mu heard this, he raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Li Tai. Without waiting for him to speak, he raised his hand and held his hand. He said with an affectionate expression: "I have heard about Boshan Shiyu for a long time. The former
My elder brother once praised me for having a good tutor, but because I was so busy with chores, I saw him today, and his charisma is indeed eye-catching.
I originally intended to recommend talents to Daxingtai at the right time, but I didn't expect that Boshan had already arrived in advance. He is really a talented person, and all my relatives and friends are also very honored!"
Li Tai was still wondering about Li Mu's intention to take the initiative to see him, but after hearing this, he understood a little bit. This familiar look seemed to treat him as a close junior.
To be honest, Li Tai is not opposed to making friends with Li Mu, building a good relationship, and even treating himself as a junior.
After all, the qualifications and power of the brothers lie here. The three brothers Li Xian, Li Yuan and Li Mu of the Gaoping Li family can be said to be the best among the powerful men in Guanlong.
Li Xian was the pastor of Honshu, Li Yuan was in charge of the army in the west of Henan, and Li Mu was in charge of Wei Bafu. Even Beizhen powerful people like Zhao Gui and Dugu Xin did not have such a comprehensive staffing.
Even if Yu Wenhu later dared to kill Zhao Gui and Dugu Xin when he was in power, he would still be open to the Gaoping Li family. He would only force Li Yuan and his son to be killed, but he would not dare to kill Li Xian and Li Mu brothers.
Speaking of their close personal relationship with Yuwentai, the three Gaoping and Li brothers also surpassed those of Yuwentai's Beizhen township party members.
Yu Wenyong, who was born last year, and Yu Wenxian, who will be born soon, can be said to be the two most outstanding sons of Yu Wentai. They have been fostered in Li Xian's home in Yuanzhou since they were children.
Li Yuan was the loyal Ma Chai who dared to draw a knife to threaten Dugu Xin. Needless to say, Li Mu in front of him saved Yu Wentai's life in the battle of Heqiao. Yu Wentai also generously rewarded him with ten lives.
He was one of the few high-ranking generals in the Western Wei Dynasty who could serve as the founder of the government in his early years.
In addition to being successful as a young man, Li Mu lived a long life. He lived until the Northern Zhou Dynasty, riding on the wall to persuade him to enter, and survived another hundred lives with Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian.
However, Li Mu's current attitude still makes Li Tai secretly unhappy. No matter how powerful your family is, I haven't benefited from it at all. How can I have the face to stand in front of me, a Kansai branch certified by Daxingtai?
Acting like a senior in front of Boss Li?
It had been more than a year since he came to Kansai, and Li Mu was leading troops in Huazhou. He never had a chance to meet him. It could be said that the other party was busy with official duties.
But he had just finished his vacation and returned to work in Taifu on his first day. Li Mu rushed over to meet him. The only thing that attracted him was that he was a direct descendant of the Li family in Longxi. This showed Li Mu's eagerness to improve his family background.
In the final analysis, he just felt that he had lost He Basheng as a strong support, and it was when he was at his weakest and hesitant, so he took this gesture to come to meet him and get things done in a way that saves time and effort.
Thinking of this, Li Tai sighed secretly. He didn't feel much when He Basheng was here before, but now that he has passed away, he is directly exposed to Kansai Shiliu, and all kinds of personnel disputes come to his face.
He didn't think that the Longxi Li family's brand name was very valuable, and he was happy to meet a few powerful people to support him. But Li Mu obviously didn't regard him as a main dish at the moment, and it was pointless to rush to get attached to him.
After all, I am also the new rich man in Shangyuan and the new secret secretary of Daxingtai. If you don’t care about me, I really don’t want to make friends with your family!
Naturally, he would not show this little emotion in his heart. He just smiled and invited Li Mu into the hall with everyone.
The remaining tables in the hall had not yet been cleared away, so Li Mu didn't take it seriously when he saw this, and just ordered his entourage to go to the Taifu kitchen to add two roasted whole lambs and a few steamed hard vegetables.
Xue Shen had to go to the official school tonight, so he left the hall with a few subordinates, leaving Pei Han and other officials to accompany him in the hall.
When the new dishes arrived, Li Mu first exchanged greetings with a few others, then looked at Li Tai and said with a smile: "Boshan, you are less likely to follow your parents to make a living in Dongzhou. You probably don't know much about the people in Kansai. It just so happened that the clan members recently
People want to dig caves and create statues in Weibei to accumulate good deeds for their ancestors and pray for blessings for their descendants. Boshan, your pen and ink are exquisite. If you can write and describe things, they will be more beautiful!"
When Li Tai heard this, he sneered in his heart and said politely: "It is a good deed to make statues and worship Buddha. Although I am not a Samana believer, I also admire Duke Wu An's sincere heart. Although he is not physically able to come,
I will definitely send my family members to provide financial assistance to comfort Wu An’s friendship.”
Li Mu frowned slightly when he heard his answer, and continued: "The money for worshiping the Buddha is paid by the host, and there is no need to trouble the people who attend. With this intention, in addition to worshiping the Buddha, we should also stay close to each other at home.
Boshan, you are isolating Guanxi, and you must be curious about the affairs of the clan here. If possible, it is best to attend in person."
Pei Han also chimed in and said: "The king's state is uneasy and the world is unstable. Even close relatives and compatriots will inevitably gather less and stay apart more often. We really need to cherish the fate of being together!"
"Pei Canjun's words are really sad. The giant bandit has not been eliminated, the family and the country are uneasy, and the world is full of turbidity. The root and the bottom are confused, which makes people feel more painful every time they think about it. I am the only one who has done this, and I owe you my gratitude to you.
If you have great ambitions, you should not make weak remarks and sacrifice your life and efforts in the hope of great unification."
Li Tai responded to Pei Han first, then looked at Li Mu and stood up and bowed: "Thank you very much, Mr. Wu An, for condescending to report the matter. I should have followed suit. But my family is ugly and the master of the family has not been heard yet. My filial piety has been lost."
, and even more shameless, good at pretending in front of relatives and friends, hiding his voice, just to cover up his ugliness, thank you very much."
When Li Mu heard this, his expression became extremely unnatural, and under his frown, his eyes became sharp: "Since Li Lang has such a sad heart, he should pay close attention to his relatives in Kansai and report this illness to his relatives."
People, in order to help others. Can people in danger be brought to safety by praying behind closed doors?
Now that you are telling me your concerns, I am already thinking about how to help you. If you are troubled by the affairs of the Tai government and cannot find a benefactor calmly, I can also express your feelings on your behalf, and I sincerely ask Daxing Tai
Let’s clear things up!”
After hearing the words, Li Tai sighed again: "The pain of losing a relative is my own misfortune. I don't know how many people in the world have fallen into this situation. There are really not many people who misdirect public affairs for private purposes. I don't dare to stand out from others, but if I can get
Mr. Wu An spoke upright and forthright, I will definitely thank you very much!"
Li Mu also stood up from the table, stared at Li Tai for a while, and then clapped his hands and laughed a few times: "Okay, you are worthy of being from a famous family! It is really a pleasure to meet you today. Since I agree with you, I will definitely
I will report to the Lord, please be patient!"
After saying this, he strode out of the hall. Li Tai simply stood there without moving. Pei Han next to him glanced at him twice, with a look of hesitation on his face. When he saw that Li Mu had already walked out of the hall,
Then he quickly caught up and sent it out.
At this time, all the members in the hall also noticed that something was obviously wrong in the atmosphere, and they were a little at a loss. Li Tai pointed to the uneaten vegetables and said with a smile: "Mr. Wu'an is generous and generous to everyone, so don't be polite, everyone should share it."
Let some leave the office and return home!"
After everyone heard this, their expressions became lively again. It had nothing to do with them whether the friendship between the big shots was good or evil. It was their business to pack some meat and vegetables for their wives and children.
After Pei Han sent Li Mu off, he wandered outside the official office for a long time before returning. By now, the remaining banquets had been cleared away, and Li Tai was left alone to sit in the hall. When he saw Pei Han walking in, he smiled and said, "Pei will join the army tonight."
Do you want to be detained in court too?”
Pei Han felt a little embarrassed when he looked at him. He was silent for a moment and then said: "I work in the same department and I have seen that Li Lang is not a lonely and arrogant person, so I..."
"It's a trivial matter, not worth mentioning. I also admire Gong Wu'an's meritorious service very much. It is an honor to serve as a minister in the same court. But other than that, the personal relationship cannot be harmonious and harmonious, which makes people helpless."
Li Tai waved his hands, stood up from the table, and walked to the temporary dormitory that the officials had packed up for him.
The three heroes of the Gaoping and Li family are indeed awe-inspiring, but awe does not mean that they have to cater to them without any bottom line.
If you really want to be so awesome, your own family will take care of my eldest brother He Liuhun. It’s just a matter of your words to remove Yuwentai, the big bank, not to mention me, the big boss’s new little secretary.
