After Chu Yunsheng left, He sat there alone, in a daze for a long time.
There were some things that he had thought about when he left Liangzhou. Although the world is huge and there are many forces that separate each other, there are not many that can really catch He's eyes. He planned to defect to Li Xingzai from the beginning. Based on Li Xingzai's understanding of him,
After joining Donghai, I didn't worry that my talents were useless.
But some things are different from what he thought. Now Li Xingzai has become a powerful force, with Chu Yunsheng and Song Youqu under his command; Wu has Qi Jiguang, Ma Chao, Xu Wentian and others. When he arrives in the East China Sea, he can really get the respect he wants.
What.
Although he didn't make many friends in Toad Village, no one dared to be disrespectful to him. After coming out of Liangzhou, the next place he was looking for could not be worse than Liangzhou.
This time, Li Xingzai did not come in person, but only sent Chu Yunsheng. Chu Yunsheng did not show much respect for him in his words. From this, it seemed that Li Xingzai did not think much of him.
In this case, why should I travel across mountains and rivers to the East China Sea to sit on the bench?
In this way, He had to make other plans and change the original plans.
However, besides the East China Sea, where else can I go? I can't return to Liangzhou in disgrace.
"Mr. He, Mr. He..."
Just when I was having a hard time with my worries, the ghost-headed dragon hurried over, with a panic look on his face.
He suddenly came to his senses, shook his head, and asked, "Why are you panicking? What happened?"
"It's coming, it's coming..." the ghost-headed dragon stammered.
He frowned and said: "Who is coming?"
In front of the gate of Crocodile Village, ten large ships were parked. Soldiers in armor and armed with weapons poured out of the ships and lined up on both sides of the road.
At this time, Li Xing slowly got off the boat, followed by a group of personal guards.
When He Zhan saw this scene on the mountain, he also gasped. Despite all the calculations, he never expected that Li Xing would appear here in person.
Arriving in front of the gate of Crocodile Village, Li Xing rushed behind him and said to the guards: "You guys wait here until I come down from the mountain."
"Your Majesty." Hong Liao showed a nervous expression: "Think twice."
The son of a rich man cannot sit down in court, not to mention that Li Xing is now the king of a country. If he goes to the mountain alone, if there are assassins or the like, Li Xing alone is related to the rise and fall of the country.
Li Xing smiled and waved his hand: "Don't worry, I am not defenseless. Mr. Hong went up the mountain with me to see who can threaten my safety."
Hong Liao is not a white-faced scholar with no power. The two masters before and after him are both regarded as worldly masters. Although after joining Jiangnan, there are not many opportunities to do it personally, but Hong alone can be worth a lot.
Team bodyguard.
The two of them walked up the mountain along the stone steps. The mountain in Crocodile Village is not high, and you can see the top of the mountain after walking a few steps.
Watching this scene, He sighed helplessly, then lifted up his robe and walked down quickly.
Li Xing has already put on such a posture. If he doesn't know how to praise him again, he will be really shameless.
"His Majesty……"
The two sides met on the hillside, and Li Xing quickly took a few steps to hold his arms.
"Mr. He, there is no need to be polite. If I can help Mr. He, I should be the one to salute Mr. He."
Li Xing bowed slightly, lowering his head slightly.
"Serious words, serious words."
In front of He, Li Xing lowered his attitude.
He didn't know what to say, so he asked Li Xing to go up the mountain. He asked him to sit at the main seat in the hall, and he sat at this seat.
Li Xing paused for a moment and then said: "After Mr. He left Liangzhou, I don't know what his plans were. Crocodile Village is a rough place, so it should not be a place for Mr. He to stay for a long time."
He sighed and said: "I don't tell secret things in front of Ming people. I'm telling the truth. After I left Liangzhou, I no longer want to do this kind of fighting and killing. I just walk around casually and enjoy the mountains and rivers."
, to pass the time."
Li Xing was quite disdainful in his heart, and he said this quite darkly. The underlying meaning behind his words was that he still didn't want to help him. However, Li Xing still couldn't figure out why he didn't agree.
No matter what, I still want people and territory now, so staying by my side and doing things will not be an insult to him.
"Mr. He's words are wrong. Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. At this time of the empire's survival, how can a capable and capable person like Mr. He just seek peace for one person and ignore the lives of the people in the world."
"I have little talent and little knowledge. I'm afraid I won't be able to help His Majesty in any way."
"Hey..." Li Xing pushed his hand outward: "Everyone in the world knows Mr. He's ability. If Mr. Cheng can build a lot of business in Liangzhou, Mr. He's help is indispensable. This king
I came here just to invite Mr. He out."
He was also hesitating in his heart. The key reason why he never chose Li Xing was that he felt that Li Xing was not a talented person.
But today Li Xing has given himself enough face. Compared to Li Xingzai's indifference, Li Xing values himself enough. Not only did he appear here in person, but he also kept his posture low enough.
One cannot be ignorant of praise, nor can one be shameless.
He thought about it and made a decision in his heart. Forget it, it all depends on people. Li Xing now has a strong army and horses. With his help, he may not be able to dominate the world.
Thinking of this, He Chang stood up and knelt down towards Li Xing.
"My subordinates are willing to work for His Majesty and work hard until death."
Li Xing hurriedly helped He up, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, with the help of Mr. He, I am even more powerful. I promise Mr. He that Mr. He will be able to use what he has learned in his life in Jiangnan. Mr. He will live up to Jiangnan.
Jiangnan will definitely live up to Mr. He."
He bowed to Li Xing again, and the two agreed on the relationship between monarch and minister. In He's heart, he was also a little speechless. He was heading towards the East China Sea, so why did he join Li Xing's camp.
He followed Li Xing to Yangzhou City. Not only him, but also the Crocodile Village water thieves such as Gui Toujiao, Wang Da Chong, and the Zhu family brothers all went to Yangzhou City with ease.
They can be regarded as a turnaround, and they became prosperous together with He.
Li Xing valued He enough that he personally allocated a mansion, including a set of maids and servants to serve him. After that, he held a grand banquet to introduce He to the civil and military officials from Jiangnan.
Compared with Cheng Dalei who always used people to suppress He, Li Xing gave him enough respect. As soon as He arrived in Jiangnan, he took Hong Lie's place and now he is the first military advisor under Li Xing.
The hesitation at the beginning gradually faded away. Li Xing was so kind to him, and he couldn't be more grateful. Now, he has made his heart down and is willing to do things for Li Xing.
When Liu Facai and Bai Yuanfei saw that He had joined Li Xing's camp in Jiangnan, they had nothing to do, so they hurriedly returned to Liangzhou to report the news to Cheng Dalei.
