"The manager knows that Li Yizhi was assassinated in the west of the city this afternoon. The assassin was the famous 'Flying Knife' Xu Fei. This man has assassinated many innate masters with flying knives."
Zhang Shihe said solemnly: "But this time, not only did Xu Fei not kill Li Yizhi, he didn't even injure him. Li Yizhi caught his flying knife with his bare hands, and then turned around and killed him without any resistance."
Hiss!
Yuwen Wudi took a deep breath and looked shocked.
He had heard about Xu Fei. Even with his current martial arts skills, if he were to be assassinated unexpectedly, he would probably be seriously injured even if he was not dead.
You must know that this person's assassination ability is only inferior to that of the shadow assassin.
If it weren't for the lack of innate cultivation, I'm afraid it would be difficult for even the shadow assassin to suppress the opponent.
Zhang Shihe looked at Yu Wenhuaji, who had a cold face, and continued: "Furthermore, I saw that when he took action, his palms were full of blood, which was the same as the masked man who stopped General Yuchi and the masked man who escaped from the general manager.
, the martial arts are the same. Therefore, my subordinates guess that the masked man is probably Li Yizhi."
Yu Wenhuaji's eyes flashed coldly and he said: "So, Yin Kaishan didn't take refuge with him in advance, and he captured You Gui himself. With good means and good intentions, he actually hid it from all of us!"
Yuwen Wudi hurriedly said: "Brother, it seems that this Li Yizhi has sinister intentions and far-reaching plans. We must get rid of him as soon as possible to avoid endless troubles."
"It is inevitable to get rid of Li Yizhi, no matter which side he is from, even if he is from the Demon Sect. However, the first thing we have to do now is to seize the Dongming account book."
Yu Wenhuaji said coldly: "Zhiji, next you have to urge Sima Dekan to try to incite the soldiers' emotions so that they can infiltrate. Once I take control of the Xiaoguo Army, it will not be easy to kill Li Yizhi with the palm of my hand."
He had fought against Li Yizhi before, and he was confident that if he attacked with all his strength and Yuwen Wudi cooperated, he could kill the opponent.
"Yes, big brother!" Yuwen Wudi promised.
In fact, secretly infiltrating the Xiaoguo Army has always been what the Yuwen Clan has been doing.
Although Sima Dekan nominally controls the Xiaoguo Army, in fact, he does not directly control many armies.
Although Yang Guang was fatuous, he still had a tight control over the Xiaoguo Army and did not let Sima Dekan hold power alone.
Otherwise, once Sima Dekan rebels, Yang Guang will have no choice but to die.
"By the way, where is the Shihe Dongming? How long does it take to reach Yangzhou?"
"The manager should have arrived in Jiangyin. According to my estimation, he will arrive in about two days."
"Well, in two days, we must capture Dongming's account book. Then we can use all our strength to get rid of Li Yizhi, as well as Yu Shiji and Pei Yun, and completely control Jiangdu."
Yu Wenhuaji waved his hand and his voice was decisive.
…………
Yangzhou, Prefecture.
As soon as the eunuch who announced the imperial edict was sent away, Xue Zhen and others gathered around and paid homage to Li Yizhi: "Congratulations to the manager, congratulations to the manager."
Li Yizhi chuckled, feeling happy in his heart.
This Yu Shiji is really powerful. He handed over the 50,000 Yangzhou army to him so quickly, and also promoted his position to one level again, becoming the general manager of Yangzhou.
It can be said that Li Yizhi is now a feudal official in the true sense, with military and political power in his grasp.
After accepting the congratulations from the officials, Li Yizhi sent them down to work.
At this time, a clerk came up quickly to report and said: "Chief Qi, there is a man outside the door who calls himself Li Jing. He was recommended by Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling. He said he wants to see you."
"Oh, it's Li Jing. Please invite someone in quickly. Forget it, I'll go in person."
Li Yizhi's eyes lit up. It seemed that it was an unexpected surprise to let Shuanglong out, and it actually attracted Li Jing.
He could not let go of such a military genius so easily.
In fact, Li Yizhi has no habit of collecting famous generals. Just like in Yitian World, he did not recruit any famous generals such as Chang Yuchun.
Because he is confident that with advanced equipment, even ordinary generals can help him conquer the world.
But this is not possible in the Tang Dynasty world, because he does not have so much time to develop advanced equipment.
Therefore, when the equipment cannot crush the opponent, the general's ability becomes extremely important.
Especially for a military genius like Li Jing, one person could carry 100,000 troops.
Quickly arriving outside the house, I saw a tall and majestic young man, about twenty-three or four years old, with a rough face, a broad forehead, and bright eyes, giving him the impression of being both steady and resourceful.
impression.
I think this person is Li Jing.
Li Yizhi was thinking, but what surprised him was that beside Li Jing was a rather delicate woman with a plump and curvy figure.
"Your Excellency is Li Jing, who is this?"
"Li Jing has met Taishou Li, and this girl is Su Su. We met brothers Kou and Xu in Liyang, so we were entrusted by them to come to tell Taishou Li that he is safe."
Li Jing hurriedly bowed and observed Li Yizhi as he spoke.
Naturally, he would not directly say that he was here to 'observe' the other party to see if he was worthy of loyalty.
However, although it was their first meeting, Li Jing actually had a deep impression of Li Yizhi.
First, from the words of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, Li Jing had an initial impression of Li Yizhi: far-reaching vision, arrogant and domineering.
Secondly, after entering Jiangdu County, he saw refugees reclaiming wasteland everywhere. The villagers from Pujia Village who were traveling with him received proper resettlement as soon as they entered Jiangdu County.
It can be seen from this that Li Yizhi is still a capable minister who is good at political affairs.
Now when we meet him in person, although he looks ordinary, his demeanor is calm and serious, his eyes are pure, and it is easy for others to like him.
Therefore, a more three-dimensional image of Li Yizhi appeared in Li Jing's mind.
So far, Li Jing quite agrees with Li Yizhi and has a certain fondness for him. The next step is to test him with words to see if he is worthy of his loyalty.
Su Su's face turned red with embarrassment, as if she were seeing an idol, and she said excitedly: "The famous girl Su Su, please pay homage to the prefect."
Li Yizhi looked at Su Su and understood in his heart that probably just like the original work, Kou Zhong happened to rescue Su Su in the mountain village and got acquainted with Li Jing.
At the same time, he also knew in his heart that Li Jing came here not just to send a message to report that he was safe, but because he was recommended by Shuanglong.
As for whether Li Jing can be retained in the future, it depends on his own ability.
Li Yizhi chuckled and said: "Since you two are friends of Kou Zhong and Ziling, you are also my friends. Please come in, you two. You have been traveling all the way, so you should go and freshen up first, and I will host a banquet for you."
"Thank you, Governor."
When Li Jing and Li Jing saw Li Yizhi's humble and approachable tone, they couldn't help but feel a little better about him.
…………
Prefect's Mansion, backyard.
The side hall was brightly lit with candles, and Li Yizhi had a banquet prepared for Li Jing and Su Su.
At the banquet, Li Yizhi and Li Jing chatted from side to side.
Li Jing found that no matter what he talked about, Li Yizhi could answer it. Whether it was astronomy, geography, or military tactics, there seemed to be nothing that the other party did not understand.
Even in many aspects, he gained insights and benefited a lot.
Li Jing knew that Li Yizhi was not only a capable minister and a painting sage, but also a erudite and talented genius.
Su Su watched the two people talking loudly throughout the whole process. Although she didn't understand, it gave her an unclear feeling.
Sure enough, an idol, worthy of being an idol!
We have talked about everything that needs to be talked about, and we have almost understood everything that needs to be understood.
Li Jing put down his wine glass and formally entered the topic, saying, "I wonder what the manager thinks of the world?"
It was only after he washed up that he learned from his servants that Li Yizhi had been promoted to Yangzhou General Manager.
