Chapter 462 was furious by the upheaval

At sunset, Li Li stood on the tower of the south gate of Wuji City, leaning on the wall and looking at Wuji City, thinking a lot.

Looking back on the previous incidents and events, it really fulfilled two old sayings: "Hard work pays off; There is nothing difficult in the world, only afraid of those who have a heart. ”

Many things that originally seemed impossible to succeed have now been realized one by one, and the trip to Jizhou is like a complete merit, and it is time to leave.

"Lord, the last batch of maids and family members of the Zhen Mansion have left the city, and we should also go."

Suddenly, just as Li Li cleared his mind and was about to go downstairs, Li Zhi, who had been standing beside him and inspecting the evacuees downstairs in the city, walked to his side lightly and reported in a low voice.

Li Li bowed his head happily, with a faint smile on his face, casually patted the bluestone battlement under his palm, and said softly: "Zhang Ji arranged very reasonably, the side clan began to evacuate half a month ago, and then arranged for the old servants of the Zhen family, cronies and servants to leave Zhongshan Kingdom, and left the descendants to hold on to the end, until today to leave with me." In addition, the old patriarch Zhen Yuan is reluctant to leave the ancestral house, and is willing to live in the secret room under the city wall, and at present, he also takes a group of old slaves to take care of thousands of maids and servants who voluntarily return home for us, and will not be sent out of the house until tomorrow afternoon.

This qiē is arranged reasonably and seamlessly, and it is really worthy of a family with a two-hundred-year-old heritage, and it is just right to do things! ”

As he spoke, Li Li turned his head and looked at the "bloated" tower at his feet, which far surpassed the other three city gates.

This south gate tower and the city walls on both sides that are several miles long are all funded and built by the ancestors of the Zhen family more than a hundred years ago, and the entire project is the sole responsibility of the Zhen family.

As a result, the South Gate Tower was huge and solid, the scale of the building far exceeded the other three gates, and the inner side of the city wall was connected to the Zhen family's huge mansion. The north side of the city tower is integrated with the south garden of Zhen's house, making it impossible to judge whether the city tower is too big or the south garden of Zhen's house is built against the law.

Now, the last group of descendants of the Zhen family and the dead of the family have all been evacuated from the south gate, but the 75-year-old patriarch Zhen Yuan insists on staying in the mansion and is unwilling to leave the ancestral house of the Zhen family. And the South Garden where he lives is built in the South Gate Tower, there are not many houses, a total of ten rooms in the two houses, very dark, all lit by oil lamps.

At noon, when Li Li and Zhen went to say goodbye to Zhen Yuan. Before leaving, under the guidance of Zhen, he personally saw the secret room built in the city tower, which was really extremely hidden and strong. Just the stone door that opened the secret room was a granite stone about two feet high, seven feet wide, and three feet thick. It weighs 10,000 pounds.

In addition to the front door, the chamber has a back door built at the foot of the city walls. It is integrated with the city walls. The stone gate can only be opened from the inside, and it can lead directly to the outside of the city. In addition, there are twelve old servants of the Zhen family in the secret room, these people have been slaves of the Zhen family for generations, and their children are the first batch of Zhen family collateral clansmen who evacuated Jizhou, and they are the same homeland as Zhen Yuan. I am willing to accompany the old patriarch to die here.

This scene touched Li Li very much, and made him realize for the first time that in this era, people are not without true feelings, and they are intrigued everywhere, but they usually can't see it. They will be fully revealed when the heart and faithfulness are truly tested.

This extended to the pre-Qin period, many veterans who followed the monarch all their lives were willing to be buried when the monarch died of illness or died suddenly, and life and death followed, and over time the old bad habit of needing to be buried alive after the death of the monarch was derived.

Li Li, who bears the soul of later generations, has been influenced by the human rights ideology of later generations, and has long ceased to believe that there is such a thing as "life and death going hand in hand" between people. Because the word is so easy to say, as soon as the upper and lower lips touch, it comes out; But there are 、、、 people who can really do this kind of thing. Even if they are loving couples who swear to meet each other and share blessings and misfortunes, when they say that life and death are at stake, even when they encounter disasters or difficult things that are difficult to solve, they are very likely to fly separately and scatter when the catastrophe comes.

Therefore, the scene of the twelve old servants of the Zhen family volunteering to accompany the old man Zhen to the end of his life made Li Li very shocked and sighed.

And, according to Zhen's words, in fact, there are more than 100 clansmen and old servants who are willing to follow Zhen Lao to die here, including more than a dozen of Zhen Yuan's concubines. However, after repeated consideration, Zhen Lao only left these twelve old servants with an average age of more than sixty years old, and the others were not allowed, and persuaded them to follow the family caravan to Chang'an.

Later generations know the style of the ancients, and Li Li naturally knows this sentence, but he has never seen it with his own eyes, until he went to the Zhen family's secret room to inspect it, and then he knew the true meaning of the style of the ancients.

"Oooo

A crisp sound of footsteps interrupted Li Li's thoughts, causing him to quickly wake up from his distraction, and then turned to investigate.

"Husband、、、 Wenchang, hurry up and leave, everyone is waiting for you outside the city!" Zhen looked panicked and hurriedly climbed the city tower, panting and saying urgently. It's just that she was about to call Li Li "husband" as soon as she opened her mouth, but when she saw Li Zhi standing next to her, she immediately changed her words, and her cheeks flushed when she spoke, I don't know if she was shy or too tired to go upstairs like this.

"Well, I see, let's get going." Seeing Zhen's anxious expression, Li Li responded with his head.

However, when he saw Zhen sighing when he heard the words, he couldn't help but wonder, and faintly felt that Zhen's rush up to the city tower was not as simple as urging him to go downstairs and set off, but that he was hiding something from himself.

"Why are you in such a hurry? I have a god horse and a horse, every mountain and river is like walking on the ground, enough to travel thousands of miles a day, I have already let you go first, and Zicheng and I will arrive later. After seeing Zhen's expression, Li Li was not in a hurry to go downstairs, and said with a disapproving smile.

Zhen's soothing expression changed dramatically when he heard this, and his tone resolutely vetoed: "No, we must get out of here immediately!" ”

"Oh?" Li Li's eyes stared at Zhen's beautiful eyelashes, and said softly: "Actually, you don't have to run for such a trivial thing as going upstairs to urge me to go, do you have anything else to say to me?" Or、、、 what are you worried about and what are you trying to hide? ”

"Ahh You know it all? Zhen exclaimed in shock, and then turned his head to look at Li Zhi suspiciously, only to find that Li Zhi had a curious look on his face.

Suddenly, Zhen knew that it must be his panicked look that made Li Li suspicious. And he didn't know what happened to Dao, because Li Zhi didn't know either.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhen said tentatively: "There is indeed something that is extremely unfavorable to us right now, I didn't want to sue you now, but since you have opened your mouth to ask, I shouldn't hide it." But you must promise me, you must not be impulsive, let alone rash, you must focus on the overall situation! ”

"Hehehe!" Li Li's expression changed slightly, and his sword eyebrows rose slightly. But he pretended to grin lightly and said, "What happened to make you so nervous, isn't it?" You are the head of the Zhen family, with hundreds of millions of family fortunes in your hands, and you are definitely a person who has seen strong winds and waves. What kind of big things can make you so cautious?

You know very well who I Li Li is, although I am young, I am not frivolous. Not to mention being presumptuous. So it doesn't hurt for you to be outright. Don't worry about me, how to choose, I have my own measure! ”

"Okay, then I'll be straight to the point." Zhen nodded slightly, but his big bright and moving eyes stared at Li Li's expression tightly, as if he was worried that Li Li would lose his temper.

Seeing Li Li's face as usual. With a calm expression, Zhen took a deep breath and said softly: "Half an hour ago, just when we loaded all the goods into the carriage and just left the city. There were two Zhen Mansion family members who took advantage of everyone's inattention, and after leaving the city, they secretly let go of Yuan Xi and Feng Ji 、、、、、、"

"What do you say! Yuan Xi and Feng Ji fled? Li Li's expression changed dramatically and he exclaimed. Immediately, he interrupted Zhen's words angrily, and then his face was full of iron, his sword eyebrows were raised, and his eyes were round, looking angry, and he wanted to choose someone to eat.

Li Li, who was angry, took a deep breath, tried his best to calm his mind, and said urgently: "Before, I was worried that Chen Dao, He Man and others would beat Yuan Xi and Feng Ji again, so I handed these two over to the Zhen family and walked with the convoy. Who would have thought that the family in your mansion would be so unbearable, not only did you let go of Yuan Xi and Feng Ji without permission, but also took them out of the city! Do you know how strict the consequences of letting Yuan and Feng flee are?

This is Jizhou! Yuan Benchu's lair! Once these two people are allowed to escape back to the Changshan camp, then we will be intercepted and killed by Yuan Shao's army with the most ferocious interception, surrounded by layers and endlessly pursued and killed, and we will have to pay the price of blood at every step along the way. Once we are caught up by Yuan's army, or surrounded by them, then we have only one way to die! Today, there are countless people who want to kill me Li Li, especially the princes of various towns, as long as they learn that I appear on their territory, they will definitely want to get rid of me as soon as possible, without exception!

This time, we captured Yuan Shao's son and his most trusted advisor, and we could have left Jizhou without fear, and when we arrived in Sili, we could either kill or release him. Fortunately, we were just about to set off and they fled! Their escape has put us in a place of no return, and sooner or later we will die in the hands of Yuan Shao!

Where are Huan Fei and Xu Chu, why don't they chase them?! If Yuan Xi and Feng Ji don't die, the ones who die will be us! No matter what, you must catch up with them for me, even if you chase them to the door of the general of the chariot, you must stop them for me, and kill them! ”

In the midst of the loud shouts, Zhen was so frightened that he retreated again and again, his delicate body trembled, and even Li Zhi, who was standing not far away, couldn't help but take a few steps back, shocked, and lowered his head in fear, not daring to face Li Li in the rage.

This time, Li Li was really angry.

To be precise, he went berserk, thundering, furious, murderous up and down Zhou, and there was a strong and infinite anger like substance between his eyebrows.

In fact, as Li Li said, once Yuan Xi and Feng Ji are allowed to escape, then Li Li and his party, plus the descendants of the Zhen family, as well as the Zhen family and the caravan on the way to Sili in the past few days, will all be in a desperate situation. Especially Li Li, once Yuan Shao learns that he is in Jizhou, he will inevitably exhaust everything he has, chase and kill step by step, chase and intercept in all directions, and if he does not kill Li Li, or if he does not see Li Li's body with his own eyes, Yuan Shao will never give up!

Although Li Li did not reveal his identity in front of Yuan Xi and Feng Ji, no one else in the Zhen Mansion knew his identity except for the six mothers and daughters of the Zhen family and Zhen Yuan. But after all, Yuan Xi and Feng Ji have been locked up in Zhen's house for three days, and they have seen Li Li's appearance with their own eyes, and they have also had close contact with Li Xuan, Huan Fei and others, so it is difficult to guarantee that they will not find some clues. What's more, as long as they can escape back to see Yuan Shao, and then mention Li Li's height and appearance, with the wisdom and wisdom of Yuan Shao and many strategists under his command, they will know Li Li's true identity after a little thought.

In addition, in the study or dormitory of the princes of each town in the world, there must be portraits of all the princes except themselves, and the portrait of Xiliang Li Li must be placed in the most conspicuous position. Because Li Li is currently the most powerful prince in the world, it is enough to make all the princes like a man on their backs, like a fish in their throats, unable to sleep and eat, hating and fearing, and not getting rid of unhappiness.

It's just that the portraits of the princes are generally not seen by their subordinates, so as not to make their subordinates have different thoughts, grow the morale of others to destroy their own prestige, and lose the face and prestige of the overlord.

At the same time, there are only three situations in which this kind of portrait will be made public; The first is the calligraphy and painting scribbled by scribes, such as pictures of famous horses, ancient sages and ladies, etc., in order to make a name for themselves or make a profit. the second is a criminal who is wanted by the imperial court, which is easy for the people to identify; The third is the portrait of their ancestors for future generations to see and pay tribute to.

In general, the children of the clan family, even if they copy calligraphy and painting by themselves, will not show it lightly, let alone make a profit, and only close friends or relatives will occasionally see it; Because calligraphy and painting are not the right way. For people from official families, learning to paint is not doing a proper job, playing things are discouraged, and they don't want to go into the stream, and they disdain it.

It was precisely because he thought that Yuan Shao would definitely have his portrait in his hand and memorize it by heart, Li Li was very sure that once Yuan Xi and Feng Ji escaped alive, his identity would be immediately exposed, and Yuan Shao's ferocious and crazy pursuit would follow.

Just now, Li Li was quite complacent about this trip to Zhongshan, thinking that he had gained a lot and made a lot of money, and he was very emotional about it.

didn't admit it, Zhen rushed upstairs but brought such a shocking thing to Li Li, which made him fall from the clouds to the bottom in an instant, and the gap was too big, which was really difficult for him to accept. Because of this, he was furious, thunderous, and almost crazy.
