Chapter 490: Two Emperors and Eighteen Kings
Chapter 493
The northerners rode horses, the southerners took boats, the waterways in the south of the Yangtze River were crisscrossed, and the emperor led by Li Letian did not practice water warfare.
Therefore, although Li Letian hated it from the bottom of his heart, he had no way to crusade against Li Xing. can only issue a thief order to the people of the world, stating that Li Xing is a traitor, and everyone in the world can attack him.
Yangzhou is the richest place in the world, and I don't know how many people are drooling when they stare at it. Now Li Xing has also become a thief who everyone in the empire can kill, but everyone is afraid of his strength and has not done it for the time being.
One south and one north, it has become a situation of confrontation between the two emperors. In addition to the two emperors of the north and the south, Li Letian also crowned eighteen princes and kings, and in the territories of the princes and kings, they all had legislative power, administrative power, and tax power.
In the process of dividing the benefit cake this time, Cui Xiang failed to push Li Xingya to the throne as he wished. But it can't be said that he has failed, such a big family that has been passed down for a long time will never put all the bets at the table, and they will always have a way to make themselves benefit in any situation.
Of the eighteen princes and kings, two of them are representatives of the Prime Minister's Office, namely Song Bokang, the king of Liangzhou, and Lei Tianyin, the king of Yanzhou.
As for Lee Xing-jae...... He has lost his usefulness and is naturally eliminated. But after all, it was the prince of the empire, and he also showed his face in this thief operation, although the performance was a bit wasteful, but the big man of the empire couldn't act like nothing had happened after all. In the end, Li Xingzai also mixed the position of a prince and king, and the fief was in Luofeng City, Xuzhou.
Luofeng City is a small city with a population of less than 100,000 people, and its geographical location is at the junction of Xuzhou, Yangzhou and Yanzhou. Yangzhou is Li Xing's territory, Yanzhou is the territory of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Xuzhou is the territory of the General's Mansion. Therefore, the geographical situation here is extremely complicated, and in the event of a war, Luofeng City will bear the brunt.
In addition, the land here is barren, the residents of the city can only rely on fishing to make a living, and there are often pirates who cause trouble, and the life of the residents is very difficult.
On this day, a black horse went out of the capital, and it was a young man who led the horse, walking with a limp. This cripple is naturally going to Luofeng City to take office as Li Xingya.
After being wounded, he was left with some disability in his left leg. I want to leave Chang'an today, I have to go to my fiefdom, and I don't even have anyone to see him off before leaving, and I'm just a dark horse with me.
He smiled bitterly, of course he already knew about Luo Fengcheng's situation in advance, but from his face, he didn't see much decadence, compared to before, his eyes were a little more angry.
There was a post at the gate of the city, and many people gathered around to see it. Li Xingya didn't join in the fun, because he knew what was posted on it.
This is a recruitment order issued by the imperial court, regardless of background, as long as you have a skill, you can go to the newly established recruitment hall to seek an official and a half-position.
Li Xingzai knew that not only the imperial court, but also other princes and kings also had the same action, recruiting talents, and cultivating customers, and the future may be the world of martial artists, killers, and lobbyists.
Li Xingzai didn't stop much, leading the horse to the road, the situation in Luofeng City was very complicated, and he hadn't thought about how to deal with it at that time. And from the capital to Luofeng City, the two places are thousands of miles apart, and I don't know what will happen on the way. Not to mention the bandit bully who occupies the mountains and forests, there will be killers sent by other forces to assassinate him, and if he stabs himself halfway, he will die.
When he led the horse away, he passed by a woman, Li Xingzai glanced at the woman, and saw that she was born ordinary, and there was nothing surprising, but somehow, the moment when the two of them mistook their shoulders, it made Li Xingya's heart chill.
He shook his head and smiled, there are still a lot of troubles in front of him now, so don't worry too much about things that have nothing to do with him.
......
Liangzhou, Toad City.
Cheng Dalei nested in the small black room, analyzing and studying the information sent by the Xizi team. He sighed in his mouth: "This Li Letian is raising tigers for trouble." ”
Ah Xi sat opposite Cheng Dalei and said, "What do you think about the big boss?"
Cheng Dalei took a sip of tea and said slowly: "Two emperors and eighteen kings, Li Letian's imperial court's control of the empire is limited to the area of Jingzhou and Bingzhou. He is not only raising tigers for trouble, but raising eighteen evil tigers in one go. There can't be two kings in the country, there can't be two tigers in the mountains, raise and raise, and in the end it's just a dog eats a dog, look, this empire will become more and more chaotic. ”
"In your opinion, who will be the last dog to survive in the last dog-eat-dog?" asked Ah Xi.
"I can see that. Cheng Dalei said: "Now all the forces are not betting, I hope that the person I bet on can go to the end." However, the general trend of the world is changing rapidly, and the least optimistic now may not be the last. By the way, what is Li Xingya doing now?"
"He's already on his way to Luofeng City, so we don't know more information. ”
"This way has passed, I'm afraid it won't be peaceful. Cheng Dalei thought for a while and said, "You let Bai Yuan fly over, I have something for him to do." ”
After a while, Ah Xi came over with Bai Yuanfei, and Cheng Dalei said: "Now, there is something for you to do, if you go out of the city, if you are fast, you should be able to catch up with Li Xingzai." After finding him, don't meet him, just protect him in secret. When he arrives at Luofeng City safely, you will come back. By the way, you should be able to find him, right?"
"As long as he makes a little movement along the way, it's not hard to find him. Bai Yuan Feidao.
"Okay, let's go quickly, and when you come back, remember to bring back any information along the way. ”
After Bai Yuan flew away, he immediately rode a fast horse out of the city and went straight to Jingzhou.
And Cheng Dalei is still nesting in the house, dealing with other things. He is quite adaptable to his current life, and these days have passed, and he has gained two pounds on his body.
Ah Xi stood aside and said, "Great master, how are you doing with the sword?"
"It's good, I realized it early and late, and I'm about to get prickly heat. Cheng Dalei said casually.
"When the big boss is going to leave the customs, now everyone is guessing......"
Cheng Dalei pursed his lips, he didn't dare to joke with his life, he couldn't solve Nie Yinniang, he wouldn't leave this house one step.
Suddenly moved in his heart, Cheng Dalei asked Ah Xi: "These days, has any woman entered the city?"
"Which woman is the big boss looking for?"
"This ......" Cheng Dalei sighed: "I don't know what kind of woman she is, but it's dangerous, deadly dangerous." ”
Ah Xi was confused, and couldn't understand what Cheng Dalei was talking about.
"No matter what kind of woman she is, all women who enter the city must be carefully examined, and the information obtained must be sent to me. ”
