Pei Shiju must make a choice.

If the Turks in the east and west join forces to launch the Civil War, attacking Central Earth with their left and right, and Central Earth hastily responded with a tired body, and their chances of victory are very little. Of course, if the Holy Lord and the Reformers give up this year's Eastern Expedition, do their best to stabilize the domestic situation, and prepare for war at all costs, then even if the Civil War breaks out next summer and autumn, Central Earth will have the power to fight, and at the least, they can defend the Great Wall and fight a draw.

However, as far as the current situation is concerned, the Holy Lord and the Reformers will definitely launch the third Eastern Expedition, and the domestic situation will inevitably deteriorate as a result. Middle-earth is covered with scars under the attacks between the inside and outside, and it is just the best time to attack the Turks. How could the Turks miss such a thousand-year-old opportunity? As long as there is no accident, the Turks will definitely put the blame on the Civil War as quickly as possible, and actively attack Middle-earth. Taking advantage of your illness, you will kill you and give Middle-earth a heavy blow.

The Holy Lord and the Reformers had a little luck in this regard and were blindly confident and arrogant. In order to defeat their opponents, the conservative forces in the court had given up the bottom line and did everything they could. At the critical moment, they would not only not stop the third Eastern Expedition, but may even add fuel to the flames, deliberately worsen the domestic situation and detonate the Civil War in advance, so as to use the power of the Turks to deal with the Holy Lord and the Reformers. However, the middle forces headed by Pei Shiju, with the interests of China and Turkey, had to make the worst plans at this moment and had to formulate a response strategy in the worst situation. Therefore, the change in Andong became an opportunity that they must firmly grasp that might reverse the fate of China.

The two evils are the least. For Pei Shiju and the political forces led by him, the harm brought by Li Pingyuan, the "political noose" is far less than the huge loss of fundamental benefits brought by the decline of Middle-earth. The Civil War is too important. Once Middle-earth loses this battlefield, the cause of unification may fall apart, and Middle-earth may fall into division and war again. At that time, how can Pei Shiju and his political forces led by him protect their vested interests alone? On the contrary, if Middle-earth wins the Civil War and the cause of unification prospers and prospers, Pei Shiju will make great contributions, and the political forces led by him will become increasingly powerful. At that time, Li Pingyuan will not be a "political noose" that everyone is afraid of, but a "political dividend" that everyone covets.

Of course, this is the worst guess of the situation. If you are so angry, God bless Middle-earth. This year, the political crisis between the two capitals has been alleviated with the victory of the Holy Lord and the Reformers on the battlefield of external conquests. The domestic rebel forces have also suffered a heavy blow, which has improved the domestic situation. Next year, the Turks did not attack Middle-earth, which won valuable respite for Middle-earth. Then, Middle-earth is well prepared and the chances of victory in the Civil War will be great. And Andong's fate against Middle-earth will be in trouble.

The impact will be smaller. In this way, the decision made by Pei Shiju at this moment, that is, to make a major compromise with Andong, will cause considerable harm to Pei Shiju and his political forces. For this reason, Pei Shiju must come up with countermeasures to prevent problems before they happen. But unexpectedly, Pei Shiju's countermeasures were to admit Li Pingyuan's survival and take the initiative to put Li Pingyuan as a "political noose". This not only surprised Li Fengyun, but also puzzled Pei Xuanji and others.

However, if you think about it carefully, you will understand Pei Shiju's difficulties. He has no choice. He cannot make a major compromise with Anton, and cannot let himself and his political forces bear huge political risks. Especially in the current harsh environment with many internal and external crises, any imprudent move may bring a catastrophe to himself and his political forces.

In order to safeguard his own interests, Pei Shiju cannot compromise with Anton, but he also needs to achieve the expected goals and complete the mission entrusted by the Holy Lord and the Central Committee. What should I do?

The only way is to force Li Fengyun to restore his true identity and admit that he is Li Pingyuan. Then all the contradictions will no longer exist and all the problems will be solved.

Of course, there are still disadvantages. For Pei Shiju, Li Pingyuan is a secret weapon sword. Once the secret weapon sword is proven to be a white-haired thief, he has to put on the "political noose" of Li Pingyuan. The consequences are worrying, but there are disadvantages. The advantage is that behind Li Pingyuan is a super wealthy family in Shandong headed by the Li family in Zhaojun. Pei Shiju is also related to the wealthy family in Shandong aristocratic group, especially the old ministers of Gao Qi. Therefore, once someone points the finger at Pei Shiju and Li Pingyuan, he has to consider the terrible consequences that damage the interests of Shandong aristocratic group.

It is not difficult to see from this that Li Pingyuan's strong rise and the powerful strength that Li Pingyuan possessed not only brought real benefits to Pei Shiju, the Shandong super wealthy family, and the Shandong aristocratic group, but also "bind" several major forces together, forming a political alliance with interest, which in turn ensures Pei Shiju's security and hedges the harm brought by the "political noose".

Li Fengyun figured it out, and Pei Xuanji and others also understood Pei Shiju's intention.

Everyone has their own positions and interests, and it is inevitable that there are contradictions and conflicts. Now Pei Shiju has taken the initiative to compromise and make concessions, and even took the initiative to come up with countermeasures. Next, it is Li Fengyun's turn to respond.

Li Fengyun remained silent.

Pei Shiju, Pei Xuanji and others had no intention of persuading him and allowed Li Fengyun to weigh the gains and losses himself.

Previously, the Turks spread rumors in the palace that the white-haired thief was a secret weapon sword, aiming at Pei Shiju, intending to provoke a high-level struggle at the central government. The Holy Lord and the Central Government responded in a timely manner and publicly announced the establishment of the Anton Commander Mansion, with Li Pingyuan as the first Anton Commander, successfully resolving a crisis. Therefore, now Li Pingyuan's official identity and meritorious achievements were not only recognized by the Holy Lord and the Central Government, but also appointed as the fourth-rank Anton Commander, and also assumed the important task of managing Anton. Now that Anton Commander has returned and been incorporated into the Central Earth territory, Li Pingyuan must have made contributions. So naturally, when the Anton Commander Mansion was upgraded to the Anton Commander Mansion, Li Pingyuan is also qualified to be promoted to the main official of the Anton Commander Mansion, and may even be entrusted with important responsibilities and take charge of the Anton Commander's military power.

However, if Li Fengyun refuses to restore his true identity, refuses to admit that he is Li Pingyuan, and insists on his identity as a "white-haired thief", then even if Pei Shiju makes a major compromise, even if the Holy Lord and the Central Committee make major concessions, the white-haired thief will at most be appointed as the general manager of Anzhou. From rebels to local military and political chiefs, it will be soaring into the sky. It is impossible for him to serve as an important position in the Anton Protectorate Office, let alone take charge of Andong's military power and command the Anton Han army.

Now Li Fengyun has made a request that he should take charge of the military power of Anton in exchange for the Anton army to participate in the third Eastern Expedition, but how did Pei Shiju agree? He could not do it, even if the Holy Lord came in person. The state-owned legal family has family rules and everything has its own rules. Li Fengyun's requirements far exceed the legal restrictions and no one can do it, so it should be Li Fengyun who should compromise. Pei Shiju also pointed out the direction for him, restored his true identity, and admitted that he was Li Pingyuan. Pei Shiju could agree to him and do his best to help him get the military power of Anton.

Amid everyone's expectations, Li Fengyun finally responded, "Ming Gong believes in Li Pingyuan, but Li Pingyuan no longer believes in Minggong."

Pei Shiju frowned slightly, nodded slightly, and said with a beard, "If Li Pingyuan takes charge of Andong's military power, Li Pingyuan is the de facto Grand Protector of Andong, and he has Andong's autonomy. Even if he serves as Andong's Great Protector, he will also serve as the other party, and he will stay in Andong for a very short time. Once someone leaves, Andong will be the world of Li Pingyuan. So in this matter, as long as someone believes in Li Pingyuan, it is enough. As for whether Li Pingyuan believes in it, it doesn't matter."

Li Fengyun sneered, "Ming Gong, what you said about this matter doesn't count."

Pei Shiju nodded, "Indeed, the Holy Lord has the final say in this matter, Yuwen Shu has a great influence, and the opinions of others in the center, including some, cannot play a big role. But because of this, Li Pingyuan must face the reality and temporarily put aside the grudges from seven years ago. Everyone works together to win the Civil War first, defeat the Turks first, ensure the security of Middle-earth, and then settle the old accounts and take revenge."

Li Fengyun scoffed, "Ming Gong, you should tell these words to the Holy Lord and Yuwen Shu, and not teach Li Pingyuan a lesson."

Pei Shiju frowned and said sincerely, "Those words must be told to the Holy Lord and Yuwen Shu, but first of all, we must convince Li Pingyuan and let Li Pingyuan return to Middle-earth. As long as Li Pingyuan is willing to return, we will be sure to convince the Holy Lord and Yuwen Shu to let Li Pingyuan take charge of Andong's military power."

Li Fengyun was surprised, "Ming Gong is sure? Where did he get it?"

"Li Pingyuan is successful and defeat is successful. My sure grasp is Li Pingyuan." Pei Shiju said calmly.

Li Fengyun became increasingly confused. Pei Shiju could not speak nonsense and be targeted. He would definitely make some decisions. Otherwise, he would not be sure that he could convince the Holy Lord and Yuwen Shu. The only way to convince the Holy Lord and Yuwen Shu to admit, accept, and tolerate Li Pingyuan is actually very simple, that is, exchange of interests, exchange the interests needed by the Holy Lord and Yuwen Shu.

Under the current situation, with the third Eastern Expedition about to begin, the political crisis between the two capitals is rapidly out of control, and the Civil War is about to break out, what kind of interests can impress the Holy Lord and Yuwen Shu, and make them acquiesce to Li Pingyuan in fact monopolize the military and political power of Andong?

Suddenly, Li Fengyun's spirit flashed and suddenly realized, and immediately became furious and shouted at Pei Shiju, "It's outrageous! Will the nightmare happen again? The bones of that year can't fill your desires?"

Pei Xuanji and others were still thinking, but when they heard Li Fengyun's words, they immediately realized and immediately understood Pei Shiju's methods. As expected, they were the same as before, and they were exactly the same as before.

Pei Shiju had no expression on his face and said nothing.

"The situation is different now. The Civil War is about to break out. At this moment, what Zhongtu needs is stability, unity, not killing each other, not division or war." Li Fengyun waved his hands and shouted excitedly, "Ming Gong, you cannot repeat the same mistakes, otherwise Middletus will be collapsed."

Pei Shiju glanced at him and shook his head, "Tell me, how can China and Earth be stable in this situation? How can the two capitals unite? How can we prevent the second Yang Xuangan from appearing?"

Li Fengyun was speechless.
