Hearing the report of the maid's helmet, Princess Pingyang also showed a hesitant expression, someone outside came to visit Li Xiu, but she didn't want this person to have too much contact with Li Xiu, worried that this person would affect Li Xiu, and even wanted to send the people away from Li Xiu without telling Li Xiu, but in the end she still didn't do it, after all, Li Xiu had his own ideas, and he couldn't help him make decisions, not to mention that he was not Li Xiu's person. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Thinking of this, I saw that Princess Pingyang's face must have said to Li Xiu: "Li Xiu, someone came to visit!" ”

"Oh? Who's coming? Li Xiu was also quite surprised when he heard this, he was chatting with Ma Ye just now, and he didn't notice the situation on Princess Pingyang's side.

"Duvoway!" Princess Pingyang's white teeth bit her lower lip and said with a not very happy look.

"It's over, this old guy is a dog skin plaster, you can't get rid of it if you stick it, boy, you better cut the mess quickly, and draw a clear line with the other party as soon as possible, so as not to affect yourself!" As soon as Ma Ye heard that Du Fuwei was coming, he hurriedly opened his mouth to persuade him, don't look at Du Fuwei roaring through Chang'an City with a group of strange swordsmen all day long, and he also went out hunting from time to time, as if he was very happy and happy, but in fact, he had fallen to the point of hating ghosts and ghosts, as long as he understood people, he was avoided.

"Uncle Ma, Uncle Du is not that kind of person, and the person who came today is a guest, I can't be too rude, you eat first, I'll go and greet you!" Li Xiu was indeed a little surprised by Du Fuwei's arrival, but then he stood up and smiled.

At that moment, Li Xiu walked out of the living room, walked out of the front yard and out of the gate, only to see Du Fuwei in civilian clothes standing in front of the door, when he saw Li Xiu come out, he immediately took a few steps and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that today is the housewarming joy of Li Xijiu, the old man didn't prepare any gifts, it's really rude!" ”

"Uncle Du is polite, you took him in the day before yesterday, and Li is also grateful, where can I still receive your gifts, please come in quickly!" Li Xiu hurriedly said when he heard this, and then said very enthusiastically that Du Fuwei went in.

Du Fuwei did have something to ask Li Xiu when he came to find him today, but just now he already knew that Princess Pingyang and Ma Ye were inside, and from the situation they met yesterday, they didn't seem to welcome him, so Du Fuwei thought about it for a while but shook his head and said: "Li Xijiu, I won't go in, but I don't know if you are free now, I have something I want to ask?" ”

"Don't dare to ask for advice, if there is anything, Uncle Du will say that it doesn't matter!" Li Xiu immediately replied that the family had already been moved, and Ma Ye and the princess were so familiar that he didn't need to accompany him all the time, so he really didn't have anything to do now.

Seeing Li Xiu agree, I saw Du Fuwei turn his head to look around, and then pulled Li Xiu to the bamboo forest not far from the courtyard, found a stone and sat down, and then said: "Li Xijiu, can you tell me, what does the sentence you reminded me yesterday that 'when you continue to break and you will suffer from it'?" ”

Hearing Du Fuwei ask this, Li Xiu suddenly smiled and said, "Uncle Du, we don't talk darkly, don't you really understand the meaning of what I said yesterday?" ”

"This ...... Hehe~" Du Fuwei also blushed at this time, and smiled a little embarrassedly before he said, "Don't hide it from Li Saijiu, the old man did hear some of the meaning of your words, but he was a little uncertain, so please ask Li Saijiu to solve his doubts!" ”

"Hehe, uncle, I'm afraid you're not unsure, but you can't make up your mind, and you can't make a decision, right?" As soon as Du Fuwei's words fell, Li Xiu smiled again, Du Fuwei always hid half of his words, and he didn't have the refreshing energy of yesterday, which is probably the reason why he has not been able to make up his mind.

"Hehe~, the old man's thoughts have been seen through by Li Saijiu, and the old man won't say anything else, and ask Li Saijiu for more advice!" Du Fuwei hugged his fist at the moment, after hearing Li Xiu's words of "keep interrupting" yesterday, he couldn't sleep all night, and after struggling for a long time today, he finally decided to ask Li Xiu for advice.

"I don't dare to give advice, but I don't know if Uncle Du is really willing to believe it?" Li Xiu didn't rush to speak, but stared at Du Fuwei and asked.

"Of course, before Li Saijiu and the old man were also plain and simple, just a little help from the old man, but Li Saijiu took the initiative to wake up the old man, speaking of which the old man lived a handful of years, and he could still hear good and bad words, so the old man believed that Li Saijiu would never lie to me!" Du Fuwei said loudly with a serious face at the moment, and there was also a lack of strategists like Li Xiu around him, so that he couldn't even find someone to discuss when he encountered something.

Li Xiu stared at the change in Du Fuwei's expression when he spoke, and after making sure that his words were indeed sincere, Li Xiu sighed and said: "Okay, since Uncle Du wants to hear it, then I will say a few words of my own shallow opinion, but these words are out of my mouth and into your ears, and I will never admit to saying these words in the future!" ”

"Great, please also ask Li Xianjiu for guidance!" When Du Fuwei saw that Li Xiu finally agreed, he was also excited.

I saw Li Xiu groaning for a moment at this time, and then said slowly: "Uncle Du, your current situation is very bad, no, it should be said that it is very bad, in the face of the increasingly powerful Tang Dynasty, whether you choose to completely break or surrender completely, I am afraid it will be much stronger than your current situation!" ”

"Ahh This...... Is it so serious? Du Fuwei couldn't help but wipe a cold sweat when he heard this, he could become one of the anti-kings at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and after Wang Shichong, Dou Jiande and others perished, he had become the only anti-king who might threaten the Tang Dynasty, so Du Fuwei himself was not a simple character, but his control of some overall situations was really poor.

"It's that serious!" Li Xiu said with a solemn face at this time, "At the beginning, Uncle Du, you and Datang were allies, but with the increase of Datang's strength, your Jianghuai army has become a vassal of Datang, if you can be more decisive at that time and completely hand over the military power in your hands, Datang will definitely reward you, your status will not be lower than now, and you will avoid being suspicious again, and Uncle Du can also rest assured that you can retire without worry." ”

When he said this, he saw Li Xiu pause for a moment and then said: "And if Uncle Du and Datang completely break up, with your strength, it will not be so easy for Datang to eliminate you, and Datang also has Turkic and other external troubles, it is definitely impossible to use all the forces against you, in this way, you will also have bargaining chips and can fight for better conditions for yourself." ”

"Of course, whether it is a fight or a peace, Uncle Du has to take a certain risk, but look at Uncle Du's current situation, holding the military power of the Jianghuai Army in your hands, and having heavy guards around you, it seems that one side is strong, but your approach has touched the bottom line of Datang, and now Datang has not found an excuse to do it to you, but once they find an excuse, I am afraid that not only you, but even the entire Jianghuai Army will give you a funeral!"

Li Xiu finally said categorically, he was not scaring Du Fuwei, in fact, just a few months later, Du Fuwei's good brother Fu Gongyou took advantage of his absence, in the Jianghuai army false order to rebel, all of a sudden Du Fuwei was forced to a dead end, although the official history records that Du Fuwei died of a violent illness in Chang'an, but this is too coincidental, over there Fu Gongyou just rebelled, Du Fuwei died of a violent illness here, and then Du Fuwei's righteous sons did not have a good end, and the entire Jianghuai Army's high-level was almost cleansed.

Hearing Li Xiu's words, Du Fuwei also showed a contemplative expression, and after a while, he suddenly said very entangledly: "Li Xianjiu, whether you believe it or not, in fact, I don't have the idea of grasping power, and I don't even pay much attention to my personal gains and losses, but the Jianghuai army is all old brothers who have followed me for many years, I once promised them that I would give them glory and wealth, and I will definitely not do rebellion, after all, I have self-knowledge, but if I surrender completely, what if the Tang Dynasty turns his face and does not recognize people?" ”

Li Xiu also kept staring at the change in the expression on Du Fuwei's face, and when he finally determined that he should not be lying, he suddenly sighed and said: "When I saw the old man the day before yesterday, I felt that the old man was a true hero of righteousness, and it is normal for you to worry that your old brothers will be snubbed and even liquidated after surrendering. ”

When Li Xiu said this, his face suddenly changed, and his voice became heavier and continued: "But uncle, if you are so hesitant, not only will it not help the old troops of the Jianghuai Army, but it will only harm them, and Datang's patience has been exhausted by you, and when Datang really makes a move, he will definitely use thunderous means to sweep away the forces of the Jianghuai Army, and then those old brothers of yours, I am afraid it will be even more difficult to have any way to live." ”

"But ......" Du Fuwei seemed to want to say something at this time, but he couldn't say anything when he opened his mouth several times, and the expression on his face was even more entangled, in fact, he didn't necessarily understand what Li Xiu said, but it was one thing to understand, and it was another thing to be able to make the right choice, Du Fuwei's character made him a little indecisive at this point.

Seeing that Du Fuwei still had a tangled expression, Li Xiu couldn't help but sigh helplessly, I'm afraid Du Fuwei has been entangled in this matter for a long time, and now he has said everything he can say, if he still can't make the right choice, then it's no wonder to others.

After a long while, I saw Du Fuwei, who was bowing his head and pondering, suddenly raised his head, gritted his teeth and whispered: "Li Xianjiu, what do you think is the most correct choice for me now?" ”

Hearing that Du Fuwei's words were already a little loose, Li Xiu also felt relieved, and looked at him with a light smile at the moment and said: "Uncle Du, I am afraid that you know the most correct choice better than me, so you don't need to say more about this, right?" (To be continued.) )
