Wei Yunqi, the censor of the clerk, and Wei Baoluan, the prefect of Jiyin, received the order of King Qi, and returned to King Qi's camp day and night

None of the two expected that things would change so surprisingly, especially Wei Baoluan, who was even more regretful. It was he who saw Li Fengyun breaking into the Central Plains and had an opportunity to take advantage of it, so he offered advice to the King of Qi to make contributions to the crown prince again by leaving Beijing to suppress the rebellion.

As the King of Qi, leading the army out of Beijing to suppress the rebellion would indeed bring political risks. However, the Wei family was powerful and all the Wei family members were full of confidence. The Chengji Li family in Longxi, Du family in Guanzhong, and Su family also ignored the risks. The case of King of Qi's "deficiency" caused them to fall into a big flaw and lost all their faces. They finally seized an opportunity to counterattack, but how could they miss it? However, things in the world were impermanent, and the political risks that were originally deliberately ignored by them were infinitely magnified under the intentional manipulation of their political enemies. The King of Qi was deeply trapped in a desperate situation without realizing it.

So what about suppressing the rebellion and suppressing the thieves? The greater your contribution, the greater your strength, the faster you will die. Who gave you an army? Who gave you the strength to rebel? Who made you "counterattack" without knowing how to fight back after being hit hard? The higher you are, the more you want to attack the crown prince, the more counterproductive it will be, and the more you will be besieged by hostile forces. It is difficult to not die.

"Who is the white-haired thief?" Wei Yunqi calmly thought and asked the key point.

Li Fengyun's identity is the key. Only by finding out Li Fengyun's true identity can we find the "key" to solve the problem.

Wei Fusi's deduction originated from Li Fengyun's knowledge of the highest secrets of the central core level. Wei Fusi was once a member of the central government. With his understanding of the political situation in the Dongdu and his rich experience in politics for decades, he certainly knew the authenticity of the secrets Li Fengyun said, which led to Pei Shiju, the Huangmen Assistant Minister.

Wei Fusi determined that Pei Shiju was hidden behind Li Fengyun, and Pei Shiju was once an old minister of Gao Qi, Shandong, and had close ties with Shandong wealthy families and the entire Shandong aristocratic group.

The reason why the late emperor and the Holy Lord valued Pei Shiju was not only because Pei Shiju came from the Pei family in Hedong and was extremely talented, but more importantly, for political purposes, he was used as a "bridge" to effectively ease the conflicts between Shandong people and Guanlong people and alleviate the tension between the two sides. Pei Shiju used his position and power in the center to fully exert his influence among Shandong people and completed the political task entrusted by the two generations of emperors. Pei Shiju thus won the general favor of Guanlong people and Shandong people, which is also the reason why he stood firm in the center.

Taking Pei Shiju as the center, Li Fengyun, Duan Wencao, the prefect of Lu County, and Cui Deben, the governor of Pengcheng County, and then connected Li Fengyun into Mengshan, traversing southwest Shandong, establishing a rebel alliance, and moving to the Central Plains. It is not difficult to find that Li Fengyun was "made" by Shandong people. It is a "weapon" used by Shandong people to disrupt the situation in China and Earth. Pei Shiju not only participated in "making" Li Fengyun, but also might bypass Shandong people to directly command Li Fengyun. The evidence is that Li Fengyun knows the highest secret of the central core layer.

If Wei didn't know this secret, then many wealthy families in Shandong would not know it, but Li Fengyun, a rebel, knew it. This problem would be serious, so we have to think about why Pei Shiju told Li Fengyun about this secret? What purpose does Pei Shiju hope that Li Fengyun can achieve with the help of these secrets?

The political significance of Pei Shiju's ranking as the center is to ease the conflict between the Guanlong people and the Shandong people. As long as the contradictions between these two major political groups are eased and the conflicts are reduced, the political situation of the Dongdu will be basically stable. Now because of the Eastern Expedition and natural disasters, the conflict between the Guanlong people and the Shandong people has erupted. The Yiqi Banner raised on both sides of the river is a typical example. If the King of Qi Yang Nan was defeated in the Tongjiqu battlefield, then the Guanlong people and the Shandong people will definitely fight. This will not only affect the political situation of the Dongdu, but also affect the progress of the Eastern Expedition, and affect the national defense and diplomatic strategies. Therefore, at this critical moment, Pei Shiju must take action and must bypass the Shandong people and directly command Li Fengyun.

Deduction from the strategies offered by Li Fengyun can indeed achieve Pei Shiju's goal, and it is also beneficial to the King of Qi. After all, it is better to live without a good death. Being strong is worse than not being able to do, being outside the prison is better than being in prison, and having contribution is better than not being able to make contributions. The King of Qi, who is so high that birds can fly, may be able to seize a certain opportunity to reverse adversity. Similarly, this strategy is also beneficial to Shandong people. If Shandong people cooperate with the Heluo people to destroy the King of Qi in Tongji Canal, it can provoke a pass.

The internal strife between the Long people will inevitably be retaliated by the Saint Lord and the local forces in Guanlong. The price paid is too high and not cost-effective. On the contrary, if you cooperate with the King of Qi and work together to attack the Heluo people, you can not only achieve the purpose of attacking the Guanlong political group, but also push the King of Qi step by step on the path of no return with the Holy Lord. Perhaps it will allow the King of Qi to repeat the mistakes of King of Han Yang Liang, and repeat the tragedy of the King of Han rebellion and the royal family killing each other.

However, why did Pei Shiju trust a thief so much? Why did he entrust such an important mission to a thief? Why did he conclude that this thief would obey his words?

The answer is about to come out. Pei Shiju is in charge of national defense and diplomatic affairs in the center, and the most important of them is the relationship between the north and the south. To this end, it is necessary to grasp the various moves of the Northern Barbarians in a timely and accurately. To obtain information about the Northern Barbarians, a large number of secret soldiers must be deployed on the desert. Pei Shiju had a secret army in his hand, and Li Fengyun was once a thief active on the front line of the Great Wall. As far as the Wei family knew, most of these horse thieves on the border were secret soldiers. From this, it is certain that Li Fengyun was a secret soldier and a close subordinate of Pei Shiju.

So, why was Li Fengyun arrested by the border army? Why did Yuwen Shu detain him to the Eastern Capital? Why did Li Fengyun rebel after escaping from the white horse? Wei Fusi couldn't find the answer, but these puzzles were not important at the moment. What is important is that as long as you know that Li Fengyun is Pei Shiju's man, and Pei Shiju will not harm the King of Qi. On the contrary, from his position, he must do his best to protect the King of Qi. From this, it is speculated that the battlefield of Tongjiqu is full of traps, and if the King of Qi is not careful, he will suffer the disaster of defeat. Only the current strategy is only thirty-six strategies.

Wei Yunqi shook his head and sighed, "Shandong people have unpredictable intentions. If the King of Qi is far away from the Eastern Capital, it is very likely that he will repeat the mistakes of the King of Han."

Wei Baoluan frowned slightly and then sneered, "So what if we repeat the same mistake? If it weren't for the purpose of preventing Shandong people from making a comeback with the help of the Han King, how could we support the Holy Lord? What reward did the Holy Lord give us after he held the throne? Not only did he support Shandong people to fight against us, but he also used this as a threat to force us to support his reform. Look at the court today, is there still our position in the court? Is the government still under our control? If the Eastern Expedition is a great victory and the reform process is accelerated, will we still be like us high-ranking families in ten or twenty years? Will we still have a place to live? If we had known this, we would rather let Shandong people benefit than let those treacherous villains succeed and let crazy changes take away the future of our Middle Earth."

Wei Yunqi's face looked ugly and hesitant.

Wei Fusi nodded repeatedly. He could understand that Wei Yunqi was in a high position, had too many bonds, and did not have the courage and determination to take risks. However, because Wei Baoluan abandoned the county and county to suppress the thieves, even if he recovered Jiyin, he would not be able to escape the blame. Sooner or later, he would be expelled for the people like himself, and it would be difficult to make a comeback. Therefore, Yu Qiang took the initiative and shared honor and disgrace with the King of Qi, and vowed to die. If he failed, he would lose his title. However, if he won, he would achieve success and fame, and his life would usher in the greatest glory.

"This matter is serious, and we should discuss it with Dongdu and Xijing before making a decision." Wei Yunqi suggested

Wei Fusi and Wei Baoluan both agreed that this matter is related to the future of the entire political group. We must be cautious and we cannot make decisions with impulse.

The three of them then looked at Yang Nan and asked him to decide the final decision.

The King of Qi made a decision. First, he did not want to return to the prison in Dongdu. Secondly, he was even more afraid of being imprisoned by the Holy Lord. He was as good as a walking corpse as a walking corpse, so he decided to "Ask a meeting with a white-haired thief, and I would like to talk to him personally."

Wei Fusi agreed, but rejected it in his heart. Before the decision was made in Dongdu and Xijing, King Qi could not and was not suitable to meet Li Fengyun. There is no airtight wall in the world. Once this matter is leaked in the future, King Qi will be dead.

At the end of the summer, Dongdu received a confidential news from the Liaodong Palace. Duan Wenzhen's legacy was made public among the top leaders. In order to suppress the opposition from the military, the Holy Lord and the Central Committee had to rely on Duan Wenzhen's reputation. The soldiers of the Expeditionary Force also began a thousand-mile leap forward in the harsh environment after the rainy season in the Far East.

Yang Xuangan, the Minister of Rites, was very surprised. What was surprised was not that the Holy Lord and the Central Master implemented Duan Wenzhen's legacy policy in the wrong time, but that a mere thief actually knew Duan Wenzhen's legacy policy earlier than him. From this, it is speculated that Li Fengyun's statement that the Central Master has a traitor is not nonsense, but that there is an accurate source of information.

Has that person been exposed? If the Holy Lord knew that the person betrayed him and colluded with the enemy and treason, the consequences could be imagined. What's more serious is that once the person cannot hold on under severe torture and confesses his secret plan of cooperation with him, wouldn't he be finished?

Just at this moment, the secret documents of that person arrived. The person predicted that the Expeditionary Force might fail. Even if the Expeditionary Force escaped from the city of Pyongyang by luck, the war would continue until the second year. So he asked Yang Xuangan to use the hands of the thief to destroy the King of Qi on the battlefield of Tongjiqu, and then give the thunder blow to the rebels to stabilize the situation in Tongjiqu, so as to win the trust of the Holy Lord and gain control of the Dongdu. In this way, the two sides will cooperate with each other and will be able to successfully implement the long-planned subversion plan.

Yang Xuangan replied, detailing the secret of Li Fengyun revealing it. Your secret has been exposed. Someone at the center has targeted you. I don’t know if the Holy Lord has learned and has a clear evidence. In short, you must be careful and notify others. Once the incident occurs, you will flee to the desert and avoid disaster. Before, he could not confirm the authenticity of the secret Li Fengyun said, and in order to ensure safety, he did not warn that person. Now it is different. Not only should he issue a warning, but he should also prepare for the escape.

Yang Xuangan hurriedly told Li Mi again, don't waste time, and immediately convince the white-haired thieves to launch an attack. With the cooperation of internal forces, defeating the King of Qi is easy to turn against the hands of the King of Qi. The King of Qi must destroy it, which is an important part of the secret planning. If the King of Qi is in Dongdu, as his first heir to the imperial reign, as soon as possible, he will gather people to ascend to the high school, how will he occupy Dongdu? How can he change the situation of the imperial reign according to his own wishes? As for the investigation of Li Fengyun's identity, because the parties and insiders in the Yulin incident that year were either dead, either lent the frontier, or were far away in the battlefield of the Eastern Expedition, it would be difficult to achieve results in the short term, so even if there were any mistakes in the decision-making of Tongjiqu, it could only be saved afterwards.

Just as Li Mi received Yang Xuangan's secret order, King Qi and Wei Fusi also received secret news from the Dongdu.

Duan Wenzhen's disclosure of his legacy confirmed that Li Fengyun was indeed related to the central high-level leaders. From this, it is speculated that Wei Fusi's deduction is very close to the truth. There are many traps on the battlefield of Tongjiqu, and the King of Qi is in a desperate situation. He is very likely to be completely destroyed by his political enemies. At present, he can only leave in the name of suppressing thieves, escape from danger first, and then Xu Tu's plan later.
