As soon as Youyou woke up, Li Shan stretched greatly, stretched his limbs, and a sense of soreness and tingling spread throughout his body.
"Lang Jun finally woke up."
"It's almost seven hours!"
Mrs. Zhou quickly stepped forward to serve, and Xiaoman went out to bring hot water. As the door opened and closed, Li Shan glanced at it, "Is it snowing again?"
"The snow is heavier than the past few days."
Sitting on the edge of the couch, he allowed Zhou to serve and dress neatly. Xiaoman then served and wiped his face and rinsed his mouth... Li Shan was a little ashamed, he was really corrupted, but it seems that he can't blame me.
With a thermos still stuffed in his sleeves, Li Shan walked out and looked up at the sky. He was immediately startled... He had never seen heavy snow in his previous life, and the intensity of the snow really made him dumbfounded.
It seems that there is a hole in the sky, and the heavy snow is like shaking cotton wool. It is falling down in piles. Looking at it, it is completely white, and no other colors can be seen in sight. The big tree in the yard has been covered with snow.
Broken by pressure.
Li Shan couldn't help but start to worry. According to the route, the old troops of Sanqian Liu Shirang who were rushing to Mayi were still on the way, and they probably would have collided with the blizzard.
But then I thought about it, if Yu Sheshe hadn't lied and Yu Gushe had really gone south... I guess it would have been quite miserable.
"Finally woke up." Ma Zhou appeared at the door, "The King of Huaiyang sent a doctor to see you and said that you are too tired and you need to rest well."
"Have a good rest..." Li Shan smiled bitterly, "It's difficult, difficult, difficult!"
If you think about it, you will know that no matter whether Liu Shirang is guarding Mayi or wants to invade, it will take a lot of energy... In the final analysis, it is Li Shan who caused the current situation in Mayi. Does Li Yuan admit that he is still there?
Between the two.
Not to mention that if Tuli Khan endured the news of Yu Sheshe being killed and still formed an alliance with Li Tang... Needless to say, Li Shan would inevitably become a key figure, at least an indispensable bridge for the time being.
There are also Li Shenfu, Li Gaoqian and the prince behind him...what a mess.
Li Shan glanced at Ma Zhou. He had a haggard look on his face. He must have been having a hard time these ten days.
It was already past noon, and Mrs. Zhou brought a large bowl of soup cakes with thinly sliced mutton. Li Shan, who had not had a good meal for a long time, ate it happily. He wondered if there was anything like this in this era.
Pepper, the mutton soup always feels lacking in flavor without pepper. I was thinking about the beef, ox tongue and ox tail brought back from Mayi. I remember that in order to get more ox tongue, Yu Sheshe asked Yuan Junzhang to kill more.
There are two cows.
Ma Zhou had already eaten. He sat aside and whispered, "I've checked it out."
"Ahem." Li Shan turned his head and sent Mr. Zhou away, then looked out the door, "Go and invite Cui Sheren."
"Huairen?"
"Already know everything." Li Shan answered simply and clearly, and continued to eat noodles. He was still thinking about bringing back a few pieces of beef brisket and trying the braised beef brisket noodles later... The noodle shop in front of the hospital, every day
There were only two or three pieces of beef brisket, which made me feel uncomfortable eating it.
When Cui Xin came in, Li Shan drank the last sip of soup and said with a smile: "Brother Bin Wang is my nephew's best friend, Shi Bo can trust me."
Cui Xin looked at Ma Zhou twice, his lips moved but in the end he just nodded.
Li Shan was a little surprised. He was in Qinghe County last year, and besides Ma Zhou, there were also Su Dingfang and Ling Jing. He thought Cui Xin would ask Ling Jing if he knew the inside story.
Cui Xin did want to ask, because Ling Jing himself had a clear political leaning, but in the end he didn't ask... There was no need to ask, the young man in front of him had no clear leaning in the battle for the heir.
"The personal guards reported that the Turks came south to Mayi to spoil the recruitment. It can't be a coincidence." Ma Zhou said slowly: "If it was just revealed that Huairen was in Dai County, Yu Gushe might be interested, but he wouldn't run away.
Xiang Mayi...not to mention Yu Sheshe, the fruitfulness rate."
"It can't be Li Gaoqian, he doesn't have the courage."
"If we talk about resentment..." Cui Xin asked tentatively: "King of Xiangyi?"
"The King of Xiangyi is not very majestic, he is not afraid of others, and he is cautious." Ma Zhou shook his head and said: "I reported it to the Marquis of Yiyang County, but he just attached his name to it, so Huairen..."
Li Shan listened calmly and sneered: "It can only be Pei Hongda."
Cui Xin was stunned, while Ma Zhou nodded silently.
"Based on time, Yuan Xiaozheng witnessed Cao Chuantuo in Xinzhou, and he was in Chang'an for three days." Ma Zhou said in a low voice: "Logically speaking, when Cui Gong rushed to Yanmen Pass, he summoned Liu Shirang to the envoy who returned to Beijing to question the crime.
It should not be far away...but Yuan Pu is Huairen, and Cui Gong only arrived at Yanmen Pass on the seventh day after setting off."
"Besides, Yuan Pu has not yet arrived at Yanmen Pass, and the rumors of Liu Shirang surrendering to the enemy have already spread..."
"If Liu Shirang refused to stick out his neck and be chopped off, he would have no choice but to surrender or run west to surrender to the enemy." Li Shan smiled and said, "Then and Shibo are likely to be trapped in Mayi."
"The rumors may not be the work of Pei Hongda, but may be the means of King Xiangyi and Li Gaoqian." Ma Zhou analyzed in detail: "But I have a secret connection with the Turks and told your majesty to send an envoy to appease Yuan Junzhang... It will definitely be possible."
If bad things happen, Huairen is more certain to be dealt with..."
Cui Xin listened blankly as Ma Zhou and Li Shan discussed the details, then suddenly shook his head and said: "No matter how deeply Pei Hongda hates Huairen, he will never..."
Ma Zhou lowered his eyes slightly, but Li Shan interrupted unceremoniously: "In terms of ruthlessness, Pei Hongda is not as good as his son-in-law. In terms of methods, how can his son-in-law be compared with Pei Hongda, who has been famous all over the world for decades?"
Cui Xin was speechless for a moment. Li Dewu first abandoned his wife and son, and then wanted to kill his son. He was even more ruthless, but Pei Shiju's method was more tactful and more impressive... quietly sending Li Shan to the edge of the Turkic sword.
Down.
Ma Zhou thought to himself that Li Shan was really lucky this time. If Yu Sheshe and Yu Gushe were the ones who went south this time, Li Shan would have been crushed by now.
It took a while for Cui Xin to come back to his senses, "What's the proof?"
Li Shan and Ma Zhou looked at each other, this one is really a bit innocent and cute...Do you need a certificate for this kind of thing?
It is enough to prove it with a free heart, just because he, Pei Shiju, has such means and even more such motives.
Li Shan's face turned cold and he said softly: "Shibo, have you ever thought about why Pei Hongda suggested that your Majesty send his ministers to appease Yuan Junzhang?"
Seeing Cui Xin's confused face, Li Shan chuckled, "The article "Ai Lian Shuo"... Well, between you and me, Pei Hongda is not blind or deaf. Once he proposes to recruit close ministers, His Majesty will probably choose Shi Bo.
."
"Why did Pei Hongda give this credit to Shibo?"
"I heard that Shibo still refused to marry Wenxi to the Western Dependent Household of the Pei family?"
"The only possibility is that he wants his nephew Ma Yi and his party to come."
Cui Xin suddenly woke up and said, "Not bad, not bad!"
Pei Shiju could not openly propose that Li Shan go to Mayi to appease Yuan Junzhang, but if Cui Xin went to Mayi as an envoy, Li Shan would probably accompany Cui Xin to Mayi, regardless of personal or official reasons.
And then, Yu Sheshe and the association leader suddenly led their troops to Mayi... It was a pity that these two people were attached to Tuli Khan. Not only did they not kill Li Shan, but they also made friends... Although they were later killed.
A wave.
Ma Zhou added: "One day before Cui Gong arrived at Yanmen Pass, two caravans left the pass for Yunzhou, one was from the Zhang family in Dai County, and the other was from the Wenxi Pei family."
"Is it really Pei Hongda..." Cui Xin was a little convinced, "I heard by chance that the Pei family's caravan left customs..."
"It can't be them." Li Shan said calmly: "If I guess correctly, the Pei's caravan is in Yunzhou, probably just to make a name for someone."
Ma Zhou nodded in agreement. Li Shan became famous in Yunzhou, and when the news spread to Wuyuan County, Yu Gushe suddenly went south.
Listening to the two young men in front of him analyzing the matter like a butcher trying to solve an ox, Cui Xin rubbed his eyebrows and asked, "What do you want?"
"As the prime minister, Pei Hongda secretly communicated with the Turks... Could it be that Mr. Wenxi and Pei would personally do such a secret thing?" Li Shan wrote lightly: "There cannot be any evidence, so naturally we can only leave it alone."
Cui Xin breathed a sigh of relief, "Your Majesty will definitely reward you for your great achievements this time. I think Pei Hongda will not dare to do it again in the future..."
Listening to Cui Xin's ramble, Ma Zhou glanced sideways at the smiling Li Shan. He knew this guy's character very well.
The reason why Pei Shiju strikes again and again is just for the sake of his affairs and heirs. Li Huairen seems to be kind to others, but he is by no means the kind of person who doesn't fight back after being beaten... Let's just leave it alone, that is, write it down in a small book, and then leave it alone.
The further you go, the greater the price Pei will have to pay.
