Li Dan, the current governor of Liang County, is very famous among the children of Guanlong nobles. His fame does not come from his talent, military merits and family background, but from his romantic history.

Li Dan's wife is Sima Lingji, who comes from the Sima family in Wencheng, Hanoi. The Sima family is a rich middle-level family and a royal family in the previous dynasty. The influence of it can be imagined. Sima Lingji first married the last emperor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and became the queen. Sima Lingji's father Sima Yingnan was the late emperor who was the prime minister of the Northern Zhou Dynasty when he was overthrown. He launched a mutiny with Yuchi Jiong and Wang Qian. The mutiny failed and Sima Yingnan fled to Jiangzuo. His wife and son were both implicated, and Sima Lingji was deposed as a commoner. Soon after, the late emperor was Zen and founded the country and unified Zhongtu. The royal family of Yuwen in the Northern Zhou Dynasty was killed all, and Sima Yingnan died of depression. The late emperor gave his grace outside the law and pardoned the Sima family.

. At this time, Sima Lingji was still young, and the Sima family was a rich middle-level family. There were still many people who were willing to marry him. However, Sima Lingji's identity was too special, and her family was full of grudges and grudges. Therefore, before marrying her, you must weigh the pros and cons of it. If you cannot bear the possible consequences, don't have this idea. As a result, everyone stayed away from him. Li Dan appeared at this moment. After meeting Sima Lingji by chance, he was shocked and immediately launched a vigorous offensive, which made the Li family and Sima family uneasy, and finally alarmed the late emperor. The late emperor was enlightened and matched it up, which led to this marriage, which was once a good story.

More than 20 years have passed in a blink of an eye. Li Dan has gray hair and no longer has the romantic passion of the past. However, his political wisdom has reached a state of enlightenment. When he saw Li Mi suddenly appearing in his mansion, he immediately realized the purpose of Li Mi's trip. Although his face was still smiling, he was very unhappy. "In a turbulent autumn, you are not studying at home and respecting your mother. What is it like to come here? Will you cause trouble for someone?"

"After a lot of trouble, my mother was very concerned about my uncle and aunt, so she specially ordered me to come and visit me." Li Mi smiled happily, "If my uncle is sent, I will go through fire and water, and I will never refuse."

Li Dan shook his head and secretly thought that it was a pity for the eldest son and nephew. Among the next generation, the eldest son and nephew, the eldest son, the eldest son, had the most talent and the best talent, but because of his outstanding talent, he was very proud of himself and showed his sharpness, and his personality flaws were too obvious. He was too tough and frivolous. Li Mi, who was young and frivolous, fell into a political storm and suffered setbacks. He thought that after the baptism of the storm, he would change and become a good person. As a result, he changed, but it went against everyone's expectations. Not only did he not "look back", he went further and further. The elders of each house were very disappointed, but after all, they were their own children and grandchildren, and they were born in the eldest son. No matter what, they could not give up. When they should be taught, they would still be taught when they should be helped, and as long as he did not act arbitrarily and did not harm the interests of the family, he would go with him.

However, this time, Li Mi sacrificed herself and jumped into the storm. His purpose was too obvious and had seriously threatened the interests of the family. Li Dan had to warn him.

"I don't want to see you here." Li Dan was very serious and stern, "Master, you shouldn't come. Don't you know that your actions have had an adverse impact on the Li family?"

"I'm sorry, don't you know the purpose of transferring you from Guanzhong to the Central Plains before the Holy Lord personally led the expedition?" Li Mi looked calm and had a modest attitude, but there was no respect in his words. "The Holy Lord is becoming more and more afraid of my Li family, especially since the Li family was about to rise and the prophecy was spread, my Li family was pushed to the forefront by some ulterior motives, and it was as if they were exhausted."

Li Dan's expression suddenly became solemn, and his eyes were filled with deep sorrow. Li Mi's words hit his vital point, making his heartstrings tremble uncontrollably.

Li Mi looked at him and continued, "Be prepared for danger in times of peace and prepare for the future. Facing the crisis that is coming, if our Li family passively defends, we will suffer. Uncle, the best defense is actually attacking. Only by taking the initiative can we deal a heavy blow to the enemy."

Li Dan agreed with what Li Mi said. The Li family was a Liaodong house in the Li family in Shandong. Although the Li family has been loyal to Guanlong for four generations since Li Bi, its roots have always been in Shandong. Before the Central Earth unification, the Guanlong aristocratic group was divided into many factions, such as Cui, Wang, Lu, Li, and Zheng, five Han nobles belonged to the Shandong system. After the Central Earth unification, the Shandong aristocrats naturally had to return to the main hall and put the strength of each house and branch all over the Central Earth with the main hall as the center.

The amount gathered together, so that the Shandong people in the former Guanlong noble group, the Shandong people in the former Jiangzuo noble group, and the Shandong people who have always been based on Shandong's development, together with the huge Shandong noble group. The contradiction between the Guanlong people and the Shandong people is deeply rooted. If the Guanlong people use the prophecy of "Li family to rise", then the first one is Li Bi's branch of the Li family in Liaodongfang, who can't escape even if they want to.

However, the opponent has already taken a move, and it is a fatal blow. Although the Li family in the world has been pushed to the forefront, today, there are only a few Li families with the greatest power, the strongest political power, and the greatest threat to the country. Except for the Li family in Longxi, the Li family in Shandong, and the basis of this dynasty was the Guanlong noble group. Among them, the Li family in Longxi was the greatest hero in assisting the founding of the late emperor. Just imagine how could the emperor attack the Li family in Longxi? Wasn't that shaken his own foundation? Undoubtedly, the Li family in Shandong became the target, and the Li Bi branch became the only target. The sudden life and death crisis caught the Li family off guard, and they could not find a way to save them in a hurry.

At this moment, the Li family had no choice but to passively defend themselves, and to do their duty well and resolutely not participate in any political struggles. If they have the conditions, they would retreat bravely. Li Dan planned to use this Tongjiqu crisis to withdraw from his official career, but he had to retreat with a strategy and to retreat without taking the handle of his opponent. Otherwise, it would become a disaster for himself, shooting himself in the foot, and giving his head to his opponent.

Li Dan was walking on thin ice, as if he was facing the abyss, and was cautious and afraid of taking a wrong step. The same was true for other senior officials of the Li family, such as Li Changya, the inner historian of Jingzhao, but there was an alien Li Mi in the family. He and Yang Xuangan called brothers and were very close to the Heluo noble group.

The royal family of this dynasty came from the Heluo noble group, so the Heluo noble group is not only the strongest political faction among the Guanlong noble group, but also the foundation of the country's destiny. In contrast, it is often the center of the political storm. Li Mi was in his prime and was full of energy. He was very close to Prince Yang Yong. If nothing happened, the great ambition was just around the corner. However, the storm was in full swing, and he almost lost his life. After that, Li Mi did not learn the lesson and continued to wander in the "deep of the sea", but the object of clinging became Yang Xuangan, the Minister of Rites, who was powerful in the court today.

Yang Xuangan's father Yang Su was trusted by two generations of emperors. In the past twenty years, he had achieved civil and military achievements and had a great power. The prince Yang Yong was deposed, and now he won the battle for imperial rule. Yang Su made great contributions. After Yang Su's death, his eldest son Yang Xuangan succeeded him as the title of title and inherited all his political heritage. Yang Xuangan himself also jumped to the peak of power in just four years, served as the Minister of Rites, ranked as the core of the central government, and ranked high as the chief magistrate, successfully replaced his father's respectful position in the central government, and successfully controlled his father's painstaking management.

It has been a huge political force for decades. It can be foreseeable that Yang Xuangan, who has achieved success and fame, will definitely be one of the core of Middle-earth politics in the future, but the heights are too cold. Throughout history, including this dynasty, how many people standing at the highest point will not fall without falling? If Yang Xuangan falls, Li Mi will be implicated, and the Li family will also be affected by this. This is only one of them. The second is that the Yang family and the Li family are affiliated with different political groups and are political opponents. Li Mi is close to the "enemy" and helps the "enemy" deal with his own family. How can this make the Li family feel?

However, all Li Dan's worries were filled with thick haze deep in his heart. As Li Mi said "to attack" suddenly disappeared, as if thousands of golden lights illuminated his heart, making him suddenly realize.

Li Mi has not changed, Li Mi is still the original Li Mi, what has changed is Li Mi's mission. In the past, Li Mi served the crown prince Yang Yong and was a loyal prince. Now he is still serving Yang Yong, just avenging the dead Yang Yong.

"Master, do you know what you are in?" Li Danyu asked earnestly.

Li Mi smiled and nodded, "I know, I know clearly."

"Since you know, why are you coming?"

"Transfer the crisis." Li Mi smiled, "Only by passing the crisis to others can the Li family get rid of the crisis

Li Dan stroked his beard and pondered for a long time. He sighed, "How sure are you?"

"I don't have any confidence." Li Mi replied, "but someone is sure, and it's absolutely sure."

"With his strength, he is indeed sure, but the traces are too heavy and can be seen at a glance, and he cannot hide the Holy Lord at all." Li Dan said, "How can the Holy Lord let it go if he has ruined the Holy Lord's hard work so blatantly?

"The key is what the Holy Lord thinks."

Li Dan frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "In the mind of the Holy Lord, is there anyone else to choose the crown prince?

"The key is not the crown prince, but change." Li Mi said, "For the Holy Lord, change is more important than everything, and everything is for change."

"The snipe and clam fight, and the fisherman gains the benefits." Li Dan sighed, "But if the snipe and clam fight to the death, what are the benefits for Middle Earth? Will the resistance to change be reduced? Will the speed of change be accelerated?"

Li Mi smiled, "Uncle is worried about the world. For the Li family, there are only benefits but no harm. If they are in peace, how can the Li family pass on the crisis?"

Li Dan wanted to speak but stopped.

"I know my uncle has the idea of ​​getting out of the way, but I want to ask my uncle, you can really get out of the way.

"As far as the current situation is concerned, if Dongdu deliberately raises the bandits, it will be difficult for me to escape unscathed." Li Dan smiled bitterly, "But I am worried about you and don't want you to take risks."

"Someone has decided." Li Mi said, "I have a perfect solution."

Li Dan hesitated, but still wanted to speak but stopped.

"My uncle is still not finished, are there any teachings?"

"Why did the white-haired thief suddenly enter the Central Plains?" Li Dan asked solemnly, "Master, you should know the relationship between the Duan clan of Beihai and the Duke of Yue, and there may be other mystery in it."

"He also had this idea. He was worried that this was a conspiracy, a conspiracy against him, so he was like a needle and a hundred thousand people rushed to Tongji Canal to find out the truth."

"If you want to know the truth, you must find out the true identity of the white-haired thief."
