Li Ci's judgment was that Chen Weiwei would not come to see him rashly.
Chen Weiwei is actually a very cautious person. He has an adventurous spirit, but he will not take risks without any reason.
He sent someone to deliver a letter. The greeting note only asked Chen Weiwei to meet him somewhere. There was no other information at all. If he were Chen Weiwei, he would not come.
The only thing Li Ci wants to bet on is Chen Weiwei's refusal to accept his fate.
There is a hill in the south of Geling City. It is not big and does not have many trees.
It's just because this place in Geling City is already remote and is a gathering place for wanderers.
Li Ci sat on the grass slope and wiped his hands. There were several corpses behind him.
Four or five ignorant wanderers thought he was a kind person who accidentally entered this place, and planned to kill him and take away his money. Who would have thought that this seemingly kind-hearted guy would be a disaster star.
Li Ci hadn't personally killed anyone for a long time. The fact that he had killed a few homeless people was not worth mentioning, but he seemed to have regained some of the excitement he once had when seeing blood.
Behind this hill is the city wall of Geling City, which is only about two miles away.
He was on the back of the hill, so the defenders on the city wall naturally couldn't find him killing people.
Li Ci was sitting here with Chen Weiwei who he felt might not come back, and just outside the city, many people died.
It is also behind a mountain. There are not many trees, but it is overgrown with weeds and can be as tall as half a person.
I don't know whose family the dead people were. There were corpses all over the hillside. It looked like they belonged to a rather large family.
A group of Imperial Guard cavalry stopped while patrolling, probably smelling the smell of blood that had not yet dissipated.
They dismounted, drew their knives, raised their crossbows, and approached cautiously, and then discovered the densely packed corpses in the grass.
About an hour later, there were rumors in Geling City that a certain family that had fled outside the city with their entire family had been massacred outside the city, and their bodies were randomly discarded.
Li Ci was sitting on the hillside, still waiting for Chen Weiwei. The news would naturally not reach here. He had given an order not to look for him no matter what.
But he knew that many people had died outside the city. He even knew when they died and how many people died, including men, women, old and young.
Because these people were originally the assassins he arranged for half a tael of money.
They were from the Su family, and they felt that the family might be targeted by Lin Ye. After all, the old man of the Su family was also serving in the Ministry of War when the Cowardly Army massacre occurred more than ten years ago.
Wang Luoshen said that Lin Ye was attacking his heart.
He doesn't actually have to kill so many people. As long as some people in the city start to get scared and start running away, then Lin Ye's mind-attacking technique will be enough.
Li Ci would not allow Wang Luoshen to fail, nor would he allow this alliance, which did not seem to be strong, to break up completely.
He knew how to reunite those who were already afraid of Lin Ye, and that was to kill more people and wipe out more tribes for Lin Ye.
Everyone in the Su family is dead, and everyone will think that this is the hand of the cowardly soldiers Lin Ye left outside the city.
Those who are wavering now, who have fear in their hearts, and are also considering whether to escape, will no longer consider running away at this time, but will stand by Wang Luoshen's side again.
Let them see how ruthless Lin Ye is, let them know that no one who leaves the city will survive, then they will have only one choice left.
Li Ci didn't even need to ask Wang Luoshen for instructions on these matters.
Wang Luoshen asked him to arrange for more people to pretend to find out who leaked the news. Even though he was greatly touched after hearing Wang Luoshen's words, he still did not arrange it. In his opinion, instead of doing that, it is better to put the morale of the army first.
Hold on.
How smart is Lin Ye?
As long as Li Ci really sent someone to find out who leaked the news, Lin Ye would immediately react. Wang Luoshen didn't have any troops outside the city, so the cowardly army would immediately find a way to enter the city in large numbers.
Li Ci was unwilling and allowed anyone to make mistakes.
Whether Wang Luoshen was really panicking or was hiding something, Li Ci knew it was time for him to make his own decision.
Just as he was waiting for Chen Weiwei here for two full hours, but he still didn't leave, it was because he had already made up his mind.
When it was almost dark, Li Ci heard slight footsteps.
That was because Chen Weiwei deliberately stepped up his steps after seeing him, as a deliberate reminder.
Li Ci stood up with an impeccable polite smile on his face.
"Li Ci, a common man, has met the priest of the Dali Sect."
Li Ci bowed deeply.
Chen Weiwei asked: "There doesn't seem to be much intersection between you and me in the past. I don't know why you invited me here."
"Because I want to live and live well."
Li Ci answered quickly.
He said: "I guess the Dali sect also wants to live and live well."
Chen sneered slightly: "Do you think I'm not alive now? Or am I not living well enough now?"
Li Cidao: "Wearing a red robe inlaid with gold, his status in Shangyang Palace is second only to the master's real person. Anyone who says that the Dali teaching is not good enough is obviously nonsense."
Chen Weiwei: "Let's be honest, there's no need to beat around the bush, I still have a lot of things to do."
Li Cidao: "The Dali Jiao has a lot of things to do. People in Shangyang Palace don't trust the Dali Jiao, and they won't let the Dali Jiao take care of anything. Now that the Dali Jiao has lost even His Highness, how can there be anything left?
What do you need to do?"
Chen frowned slightly.
Li Cidao: "I didn't mean to offend Dali Jiao on purpose. I just wanted Dali Jiao to understand that I am sincere and Dali Jiao also needs me."
The biggest advantage of Chen Weiwei is that he is very willing to take risks.
"I need you?"
Chen Weiwei said: "Then you might as well tell me what I need you to do?"
Li Ci said: "There is no one available in the Dali Sect in Shangyang Palace, and all the former subordinates of the Dali Sect have been secretly eliminated."
He looked into Chen Weiwei's eyes and said, "I can give great gifts and teach people, and they are all masters."
Chen Weiwei said: "When I was working in the palace, I arranged for my subordinates to go out to do things. You said they were secretly eliminated. Where did you get the news?"
Li Ci pointed at himself: "I arranged for everyone to be killed."
Chen frowned slightly again.
Li Ci said: "Don't blame the Great Rites, because at that time the Great Rites were almost out of control. Naturally, I couldn't tolerate it. The people he gave you have turned into swaying wallflowers. It's useless for the Lord to keep such people."
"
Chen Weiwei was not surprised or even suspicious.
He smiled and said: "Since you know that Wang Luoshen hates wallflowers, but you come to me again, aren't you afraid that Wang Luoshen will get rid of you too?"
Li Ci said: "I'm afraid, so I thought carefully. With my own strength, can I fight against Wang Luoshen or Lin Ye?"
Chen Weiwei: "You can't fight anyone."
Li Ci pointed at Chen Weiwei: "The same is true for the Great Rites."
Chen Weiwei: "You don't mean to say something. You and I are no match for others, so why not cooperate? If we divide, we will both die, and if we join forces, we will both benefit?"
Li Ci smiled and said, "Isn't it?"
Chen Weiwei said: "Do you think I am a child who can be deceived by telling lies?"
Li Ci asked: "Has the Dali Jiao ever heard that there are half a tael of money in Jianghu?"
Chen Weiwei's heart moved.
He has heard, and most people in the world have heard, that Banliangqian is definitely a terrifying existence. People in the world say that there are only two people in the world who cannot kill Banliangqian, one is the emperor and the other is the boss.
teach.
Li Ci pointed to his nose: "Half two cents, mine."
Chen Weiwei wanted to laugh, want to ridicule, wanted to ridicule, but finally endured it.
Another good thing about him is that he will not easily offend someone who may be helpful to him.
Except for the forest leaves.
"Don't you believe in the Dali teaching?"
Li Cidao: "That's not as good as this. The Dali sect appoints a person. Of course, it cannot necessarily appoint a target that no one can kill. In addition, the Dali sect names a person. Whether he is dead or alive, we will see you tomorrow.
Find out."
Chen Weiwei said: "Wang Luoshen."
Li Ci sighed.
Chen Weiwei sneered: "Since you don't have that much strength, don't brag so much."
Li Ci remained silent.
Chen Weiwei said: "Then I'll change it."
Li Ci asked: "Who?"
Chen Weiwei replied: "Queen."
Li Ci asked: "Why the queen."
Chen Weiwei said: "Because once the queen dies, Wang Luoshen and Lin Ye will confront each other head-on."
Li Ci fell silent again.
Chen Weiwei said: "If the Queen wants to leave, she must be forced by Wang Luoshen. With your intelligence, do you think Lin Ye is right or not?"
Li Ci: "Of course it's not allowed."
After a moment, he shook his head again: "It should be accurate."
Chen smiled slightly: "I thought at first that Lin Ye was not allowed. But the more I thought about it, the more I realized that Lin Ye was looking forward to the queen leaving because he didn't want too many forbidden troops in the city."
Li Ci said: "You said the queen should die, then when do you think the queen should die?"
Chen Weiwei said: "You should die as far away from Geling City as possible."
Li Ci: "Then, do you still need to say it?"
Chen Wei smiled and said: "What I just said is that Lin Ye thinks it should be like this, and Wang Luoshen also thinks it should be like this."
Li Ci: "What does the Great Rites mean?"
Chen Weiwei took a step forward, walked up to Li Ci and asked: "Since you said half a tael of money is yours, and you said there are very few people in the world you can't kill, is there any way you can let the queen die in the reception office?"
As soon as these words came out, Li Ci's eyes widened.
If the queen dies in the host office, even if everyone knows that it is a display queen, it will still cause an uproar and put everyone in the host office in danger.
Chen Weiwei said: "You and I can't see the way forward clearly. You belong to Wang Luoshen, but you don't trust Wang Luoshen. I don't belong to anyone, and I don't trust anyone..."
"So at this time, the more chaotic the situation, the better for you and me. We don't know anything, but we know that the office must be the foundation for the emperor to stay and stabilize Geling."
Li Ci said as if talking to himself: "I don't know what Lin Ye is going to do, and I don't know what Wang Luoshen is going to do, so why don't we just take care of the office?"
Chen Weiwei: "I don't believe Wang Luoshen didn't tell you to kill the people in the office, but you didn't do it because they didn't leave the imperial garden. What I said was not to kill them, but to make them unable to make the decision.
."
If the queen dies in the office, who will investigate?
If the people in the service office check themselves, who can trust them?
At that time, Wang Luoshen would definitely be the first to jump out, and the Zhao family would also jump out and demand an explanation as a member of the Queen's family.
At that time, the situation in Geling City was even more chaotic.
Chen Weiwei said: "Of course Lin Ye doesn't want the people in the service office to die, they are all the same...Wang Luoshen will immediately go to make things difficult for the service office, and Lin Ye will immediately go to protect the service office.
"
Li Ci said: "At that time, their decisive battle will be brought forward."
Chen Weiwei said: "What tricks they each have, they have to reveal them."
Li Ci cupped his fists and said: "What a strategy. I really didn't expect that the Lijiao would have such a mind. It's really admirable."
Chen Weiwei said: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm going back. If I hear about the queen's death, I will naturally come to you. If I don't hear about it, you don't have to come to me again."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Li Ci looked at Chen Weiwei's back and had to re-examine this guy.
Of course Chen Weiwei didn't trust him, so she asked him to do something difficult.
Even the Queen Li Ci can be killed, so it is not a bad thing for Chen Weiwei to form an alliance with him.
"I think...it's better to die a few more people in Shangyang Palace."
