Chapter 885 Carrying the Cauldron to Defend the Way
As soon as Li Licheng finished speaking, the scene fell silent. Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and for a moment they didn't know what to say.
Even the young and arrogant Lu Sixidao opened his mouth in surprise and saw that the surrounding environment was indeed in a manor in Yenan and not a foreign country. Then he looked back at Li Licheng. These words are what you can say casually.
Say, can I just listen?
The owner Wang Xi did not expect that Li Licheng had hidden his secrets before. This confession immediately made him so frightened that he wanted to hide his ears and run away. After a while, he quickly waved his hand to Li Licheng and said: "Master, please don't say such treacherous words again."
! Our country has its own laws, how can we allow this, this... Please don’t say anything again, please don’t say anything again!”
Li Licheng was very calm at this moment, looking at Wang Xi and continuing to smile and said: "My king also praised the prince. In the past, the great commander of our country entered Luo and failed to conquer the prince. It is a pity. Later.
He Liuhun selected teachers and friends for the disciples, and the princes and princes also had to be among them. Is it a blessing to receive rewards one after another?
The king also said, the talents of the king are not limited to the ministers of the shogunate. When the time comes, the Qin king and his like can take his place. If the king intends to go west, the king will definitely sweep the bed to welcome him..."
"Mr. Lang, be careful what you say!"
Li Licheng's unbridled words had already irritated Wang Xi, and these heart-wrenching words frightened him so much that he almost jumped up and covered the guy's mouth. He was so frightened that he broke into a white-haired cold sweat.
This guy really dares to say anything!
It is said that he is not only talented as a minister of the shogunate, but even Yang Min can replace him. The problem is, if he replaces Yang Min, then his boss will have to replace Yang Min's boss!
Everyone else was also panicked at this moment, and hurriedly shouted: "Li Lang, please don't say anything again. The situation in the Eastern Dynasty is dangerous, and there are many people who have committed crimes because of their words! If these few words are leaked to the outside, we may all die."
Save it!”
"I'm really sorry, I'm sorry! I really don't know the danger of the situation here, but I just hope that I can convey to you the enthusiasm of the king for seeking talents! There are many talented people in Hebei, and the king is not the only one who is valued by the king.
And... Alas, tyranny is so extreme that it guards the people’s mouths, dares not speak out, and the roads are in front of their eyes!”
Li Licheng realized it later and patted his knees with an annoyed look on his face. He then looked at Wang Songnian and said, "You and I are all close friends and relatives here, so I, I am eager to show my sincerity, so I don't dare to hide anything anymore."
.This, what should I do?"
After everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at Wang Songnian with a look of resentment. What kind of treasure have you brought for us? These rebellious remarks are frightening to even dream about, especially now that His Majesty the Emperor's tyranny is gradually revealed.
People are frightened. If anything here is leaked, I am afraid that they and everyone in the congregation will not be able to survive alone!
"Everyone, please be patient and don't be impatient! Fortunately, there are no strangers here, but we have to be careful no matter what happens in the future!"
Wang Xi was now sweating heavily on his forehead. This house was his family's property, and he was the one who organized today's round. If he really wanted to leak the news, he would undoubtedly be guilty of an even greater crime.
In particular, although Li Licheng spoke freely, he also pointed out the fact that he had a close relationship with King Changshan, and it could be said that they were both prosperous and prosperous.
Previously, he was angered by the emperor because King Changshan repeatedly admonished the emperor. He was punished and sent to Jiafang. It took several years before he was pardoned. Now if he causes trouble due to careless interactions again, I'm afraid it will be
It is inevitable to implicate King Changshan. Once King Changshan is implicated, the lives of his and his family may be in danger.
While Wang Xi was comforting everyone, he kept a close eye on Li Licheng. Li Licheng's unabashed behavior just now made him look like a careless person, but would Li Boshan send a fool to carry out such a task?
If the other party is not stupid, then he is deliberately making this statement in order to make them hide it under false pretenses. Of course, there is no way to solve this problem. No matter what his identity and background, Li Licheng is just an outsider after all.
Allowing him to disappear without anyone noticing in this manor can avoid certain troubles. Of course, doing so may also lead to greater troubles.
"No matter what your intentions are, these words of Mr. Lang are tainting the integrity of a certain class of people! This is by no means the etiquette that should be followed when visiting an old friend. Whether our country is governed or not, and how the personnel are, I don’t care whether Mr. Zang can do it in person.
! Today’s evil words are buried here. If you hear them again in the future, you will draw your sword and strike at them without mercy!"
After weighing the situation, Wang Xi suppressed the anger in his heart and looked at Li Licheng with a stern warning.
During the time Li Licheng entered the park, he had generally seen that this small group was centered on Wang Xi. And an important reason why he became the center of communication was that he held the position of Changshan Wangyou, and as Changshan Wang Gaoyan
The confidants and aides had a certain appeal to these frustrated scholars.
Among the Gao family members, Gao Cheng had his confidant Chen Yuankang, who assisted Gao Cheng in assisting the government in Yedu and preparing to usurp the Eastern Wei Dynasty. After these two men were assassinated, they were replaced by the pair of Gao Yang and Yang Min.
.
Li Licheng didn't know whether Wang Xi wanted to replace the previous pair with Gao Yan, but that didn't stop him from making such malicious speculations or even slandering me. Either you kill me, or you help me.
Point, don't let me be arrested in Yecheng, otherwise I will falsely accuse you!
The reason why he took the risk to make this attempt was that Li Licheng felt that the resources and power he could use were really limited, and he had to rely on the help of the local people in Hebei to complete the mission as soon as possible.
After hearing Wang Xi's rebuke and threat, Li Licheng smiled slightly. He walked to a desk and took out a pen and paper, but there was no inkstone or ink.
Before he could ask for it, after a second thought, he took out the short knife he was wearing, directly rolled up his sleeves and stabbed his arm to bleed, dipped his pen in the blood flowing from his arm, and quickly wrote hundreds of words in blood, and then again
He bowed to Wang Xi and said: "Today someone made a mistake and disturbed you all. I pierced my arm and swore not to reveal anything to the outside world, so as not to cause trouble for you. If you violate this oath, if there is an eldest son in your household, all of you will be killed."
But kill me!"
As he spoke, he held the blood book to Wang Xi with both hands. Wang Xi frowned, and after a while he raised his hand to take the blood book. He looked at everyone and said, "I have a heart-to-heart relationship with you, and I have no doubts. However,
If things change today, more than one person will be harmed, and the family will be wiped out in an instant, and it is unknown. I will also stab my arm as an oath. If your words are leaked to me, the sky will be thick and the earth will be abandoned, and both humans and gods will be abandoned!"
At this point, he also asked for a short knife from Li Licheng, dipped his arm in blood, and left his name on the paper.
Seeing this scene, everyone else had mixed feelings in their hearts. Although they were somewhat resistant, they had to admit that only by making this oath would they believe that they would not be betrayed.
After everyone present had finished their oaths, Wang Xi collected the blood letter signed by everyone, and then looked at Li Licheng and said: "Li Lang behaves with chivalry. I now believe that you are of the blood of Duke Dongping. It's just that.
Shannan and Hebei are far apart from each other. If King Li sends you here, apart from being in danger, I'm afraid there won't be any practical benefits!"
"I beg your pardon to disagree with your words. The rise of the Gao family has only lasted twenty years, and its position has been transferred to three people. Who can say with certainty that it can enjoy the country for a long time? It seems that it is strong now, and it depends on the materials in Hebei.
Wealth lies in the prosperity of talents in Guandong, but how much can the Lord of Qi use the wealth of Hebei and the talents of Guandong? Those in power are nothing more than a few veterans from Jinyang, a few treacherous subordinates, and no heroes at the time, just trying to maintain their power."
With the oath between them, Li Licheng spoke more casually and calmly: "Why should you deceive yourselves? You all have both talents and ambitions. How much can you do in this country? It's nothing more than submitting to the power of the Lord Qi.
Yu Laojun is a slave!
My king has only been in power for a short period of time, but he is particularly good at subduing the soldiers. Since the mutiny in the six towns, who has done this? The Lord of Qi punishes the veterans with the title of monarch and minister, so my king drives them away with a stick, just like lecturing a naughty boy! Everyone
He is a good family and a good talent, how can he bear to cast his innocent body into a nest of filth?"
"Yes, good birds choose trees to roost in! The Gao family has only raised scholars for a lifetime, and has not had great virtues to connect with the people, so how can they dare to claim that the king's affairs will prosper? It is true that Gao Wang's victory over Erzhu has contributed to the country, but with
It doesn't mean that there is governance even if the soldiers are above all the people! Since the great upheaval in Heyin, all the families have been demoralized. Now King Li of Shannan Road is carrying the cauldron to defend the road. If people don't go there, how can right and wrong exist?"
Lu Sidao, who had admired Li Tai before, couldn't help but clapped his hands and said after hearing Li Licheng's words: "Xiangzhe, the Western Dynasty suffers from the small land and weak people, so it is not enough to be an enemy. But now King Li has decided to settle in Jiangling and sit on it."
Huaihan, the vast world must do something great!"
Everyone present couldn't help but reveal their emotions when they heard the two men singing. They gathered here to keep themselves warm. Although Northern Qi was prosperous, it didn't give them many opportunities. Li Boshan's
With their influence spanning Huaihan and Han Dynasties, they can be said to have great momentum, and it is indeed a good choice for them.
As a close supporter of the Gao family, Wang Xi naturally would not be easily incited. After hearing this, he frowned and said: "King Li's actions are indeed majestic and admirable, but his position is still controlled by others, and I am afraid it will not be easy to get rid of him. Now Liang Guo has invited
As a vassal of our country, Hefei and other towns will also be recovered soon. Even if Mr. Lang recruits some people with bleak futures here, I am afraid it will not be able to relieve Shannan's urgent needs."
After hearing this, everyone present nodded in agreement. They could be easily instigated and persuaded, so naturally they couldn't say they had a firm stand. They were just following what others said, and all they wanted was to sit on the fence and watch the wind.
"A thousand words from a wise man are not as good as one thing that comes true. The king is deeply involved in this situation, and it is difficult for me to persuade him to turn back. But the friendship forged today will never be in vain. I still need to stay in Yecheng for a while.
Today, I hope that the monarch can give me some help. Maybe with a little effort today, I can invite thousands of households to be granted the title."
Li Licheng did not expect to be able to convince people like Wang Xi. If both parties could reach a certain consensus, Wang Xi's role in Yecheng would be even greater than that of following him to Xiangyang.
Hearing Li Licheng's somewhat arrogant words, Wang Xi couldn't help but smile. He had his own judgment on the general trend of the world in his heart, but he didn't want to compete with such a arrogant person for any verbal victory. He just said: "No matter what,
, Li Lang is willing to risk his own life to save the innocent relatives and friends of the Cui and Li families. He is also very loyal and touching."
