Chapter 801 Chapter 801: Qin Li's way of literati [ask for a monthly ticket]
It was in vain for her to trust Qi Yuanliang so much, and categorically denied Gu Chi's speculation. She never thought that the mastermind behind the scenes was really evil!
Shen Tang looked at the handwritten letter spread out on his knees for a long time.
"If you owe me so much, I'm not afraid that one day I'll take off the quilt sack?" If the sack could be covered, the sack Qi Yuanliang received would definitely be able to support a factory. He raised his hand to fetch a lamp from the corner, and watched the pages of letter paper burn to ashes, leaving no evidence against Qi Shan, "Worry."
The length of this letter is limited, and Qishan wanted to write too much, so he omitted all kinds of processes, including the identity of the Xu clan who was murdered by him with a knife. Shen Tang was not sure who this person belonged to Brother Xu Jie, whether they were close or not, she only knew that one thing more is worse than one thing less. Once Xu Jie and Xu Quan knew that it was Qishan who killed their clansmen, and then burned down Xu's granary, the two sides would inevitably become enemies. Shen Tang is not a saint, so her heart will be biased, and she will be inclined to pray for good without any suspense.
This matter can be hidden from other people, but it cannot be hidden from Gu Chi.
"Just say evil plots can't be changed and eat shit." Hehe, if something bad happened, guess it from Qishan, and one guess will be right!
Shen Tang said in a low voice: "It's good to be able to achieve the goal."
She also had a headache before how to mess with Wu Xian.
After all, the more cooperation between the two, the better the external relationship. As long as Wu Xian is interested in the future, Shen Tang really can't find a reason to attack him. She can do things in secret, it's fine if she doesn't get discovered, but if she reveals her flaws, her reputation will be damaged.
Praying for Shan to do it at this time is just right. As long as Shen Tang takes care of the aftermath and those who know about it keep their mouths shut or can't speak at all, who can say that Qishan did this?
Who can say that she intends to do something wrong with the alliance?
Gu Chi listened to his lord's rich innermost feelings, and helplessly covered his ears: "Oh, I can't listen to these things."
Shen Tang asked him with a smile: "Are you worried about being silenced?"
Gu Chi rolled his eyes indecently, and said with a sneer, "Chi Li aspires to be the number one courtier in the ages, would he be worried about this?"
Ningchen is not a good word, it refers to a courtier who is good at flattery, understands what he wants, and flatters him. Gu Chi's grandfather and father had a straight personality, and they also hoped that Gu Chi could inherit the family tradition, but they couldn't stand him as a scribe, and they couldn't get away from this word in this life. Since it is doomed to be unable to break free, let's enjoy it and hang out with the like-minded protagonist.
Monarch, subject, master and servant, is there any closer distance than heart-to-heart communication?
Shen Tang: "...It doesn't have to be like this."
It's okay, why scold yourself like that?
She originally wanted to ask Gu Chi to inquire about the identity of the dead Xu's children, but soon got the answer from Xu Quan. Xu Quan's words are not very easy to follow, but as long as she shows the trump card of Gongxiqiu, the little fan's mouth will have no handle.
Send Gong Xiqiu out in the morning, and he will come back in the afternoon.
"The one who died was the grandson of Xu Quan's family elder." Gong Xiqiu completed the task without asking Shen Tang why. He was obsessed with martial arts and hobbies, and didn't like intrigue, but that didn't mean he was brainless. In fact, even a brave warrior who has no mind can not be the commander-in-chief, and can only be an ordinary general for the rest of his life. Gong Xiqiu has the ability to command troops, but he just doesn't like it.
Shen Tang threw a jade wheat cob for him, the golden yellow seeds were covered with soup, and there was white mist: "The grandson of the clan elder?"
Gong Xiqiu took it precisely, opened his mouth and gnawed a circle: "The grandfather of the clan elder and brother Xu Jie and Xu Quan's generation is quite prestigious in the Xu family. His grandson is posthumous and only seedling. He is robbed in the street. A woman, was opened by a brick."
Shen Tang asked again: "How is his relationship with Brother Wen Shi?"
Gong Xiqiu gnawed on a jade wheat stick, and replied vaguely: "The relationship should not be very good, isn't it like this for all big families? In name, they are cousins, and they don't meet as many times as passers-by in their lifetime. Made Xu Jie a lot of stumbling blocks, filled his own pockets when he was doing things... at the end of the year when the family dividends were distributed..."
Xu's family started as a merchant, and the family motto is different from other places.
They know that if they want their clansmen to work, they have to give them benefits, so that the interests of the clan become their own interests, so there is a dividend at the end of each year. A part of the annual dividend is evened out, and the income is divided according to the credit throughout the year.
This tradition has continued for generations.
Xu's business has expanded like never before in Xu Jie's hands, unknowingly it has also raised the appetite of the clan. Not all clan members understand the pain points of merchants in this society. They don't care about Xu's external status, they only care about the small dividends they get each year. The elder of the clan was the most ruthless, and strongly opposed Xu Jie's investment in Wu Zhaode, but he flattered the family behind his back.
Trying to make friends with the Tianhai gentry in exchange for the teaching resources of the famous grandson and apprentice, in short, there are two faces.
The only seedling is gone, and he is also crazy.
Using the prestige and seniority within the family to put pressure on Xu Jie.
"...According to what Xu Quan said, his cousin Xu Jie currently suspects that the person who set fire to the granary was this clan elder... After all, with his character, he can do this." But Gong Xichou knew it was not, and he did it. The son's person is definitely related to Mama. Even if it wasn't Mama's instigation, it was her staff.
He knows, but he doesn't care.
Xu Quan is his fanboy, but who is Xu Jie? Who is the Xu family? Who is the old man of the Xu family whose only grandson died?
These people have a penny relationship with him?
Shen Tang's eyebrows stretched slightly.
Gong Xiqiu: "Since Xu Jie has suspected targets and found a reason, it is this old guy who did it."
He throws the clean stick into the trash can.
Shen Tang smiled: "I also have that intention."
"I heard that Huang Xiguang made another move?"
Shen Tang said: "Wait for them to call over by themselves."
It's hard to say how long the food in Huang Lie's hands will last, but Zhang He can definitely last. Shen Tang intercepted his grain and grass, but Zhang He chased and killed Chu Yao before, and also got a batch of grain and grass. This back and forth, the two sides can be considered a tie.
"Damn Huang Xiguang, I have to leave for a while."
Shen Tang understands Gongxichou, the latter will not stay in one place peacefully, even if she is a sacred object of the Gongxi clan: "What are you doing?"
"Of course I'm looking for my brother and nephew." Every day he couldn't find his blood relatives, he would think about it all day long. Will be back too."
Shen Tang didn't force him to stay either: "Yes."
—
Zhang He camp, a letter was brought back by scouts.
The signature is received by Zhang He.
As soon as he opened it, he was so angry that the cap almost flew off!
roared angrily: "Shen! You! Pear!"
"Zhuzi! You're bullying too much! You're bullying too much!"
It was enough to intercept his food and grass, but he sent such a letter showing off his might, every word on it made his blood pressure soar! Years of conservation and breaking power in situ! He kicked the table case flying, and the table case rolled on the ground several times before it fell apart!
"Is there any news from Huang Xiguang's people?"
This time, let Yanzhou become the burial place of Shen Youli!
—
The movement of Zhang He and Huang Lie's soldiers and horses could not be concealed from the Shen and Wu scouts, but more precisely, Qin Gongsu was the first to discover the movement. Much thinner and haggard, he was sitting in the tent, holding a half-read military letter in his hand.
There is a strange sand table in the center of the tent.
This sand table is rectangular in shape. There is neither corn nor sand and gravel on the sand table, and there are no small flags representing forces. Some are just a layer of condensed clouds and mist images, under the clouds and mist, mountains, rivers and rivers are all available.
Qin Li looked carefully at a piece of bamboo again, and the curtain of the camp tent was lifted vigorously. Wasn't it Zhao Dayi who came in?
Zhao Feng held the plate with his left hand, and lifted the curtain with his right.
"Gong Su, don't be too busy, come and eat."
Seeing that Qin Li was motionless, Zhao Feng was about to take away the slips before he entered, Qin Li turned sideways to avoid: "I don't want to eat, I have no appetite."
Qin Li finally glanced over.
There are seven or eight thick and weird things stacked on the plate. The sticks have a lot of seeds, full of grains, and the skin is crystal clear.
"What is this?"
Zhao Fengdao: "My daughter sent it."
On the day Shen Tang came, Zhao Feng and the others did go out to do business, and Shen Tang specially left them a small basket of jade wheat in the name of Zhao Wei. Zhao Feng heard that this was made by his old friend Cui Xiao, so he immediately expressed his support and became the first one to try it.
Zhao Feng was prepared to be poisoned to death or spit out. After all, Cui Xiao knew nothing about farming, so the food he made was edible? The result—well, it’s not poisonous, and it tastes really good.
"Try it, it tastes much better than wheat rice."
Even if he is a general, the wheat rice he eats still makes his throat louder.
Qin Li glanced at Zhao Feng, then at Yumai's appearance, and refused to open his mouth to gnaw like him, rude.
He ate one by one.
Zhao Feng: "..."
Zhao Feng has finished turning three jade sticks, and Qin Li has not finished half of them. If it weren't for the conditions, I really doubt that Gong Su would take silver needles and eat them one by one. What's the taste of this?
Having a good meal, Zhao Fengdao: "I found out."
Qin Li lowered his eyes and continued to compete with Yu Mai: "Speak."
Zhao Feng wiped his mouth: "It's the problem on Tianhai's side."
He told one by one the news he found out.
Since that incident, Wu Xian had a clear estrangement from their faction, and the estrangement has become even worse these days. If there is anything to discuss, they always seek counselors from the Tianhai noble family. Qin Li occasionally made a suggestion, but the other party's reaction was also very cold.
This also made Zhao Feng complain in his heart—the mastermind of that revenge was himself, and he led people to do all the processes. The lord is even involved with Gong Su, it's too partial!
After checking, everything is clear.
Xu's children were killed, Xu's granary was burned, Xu Jie couldn't produce food and grass, and the front line couldn't run out of food, so Wu Xian could only turn to the Tianhai family for help. Zhao Feng was on fire in his heart: "What is the difference between my lord's move and selling laughs for food?"
Even though it was in private, it was also offensive.
Qin Li said calmly: "It's no different."
Whether it is the emperor's nobles or the traffickers and pawns, they must fight for their interests, and they must weigh the pros and cons. Both of them are playing tricks for survival. Essentially nothing is different.
Zhao Feng asked: "What should I do now?"
Qin Li doesn't care about these things, he only cares about one thing.
"Dayi, who do you think did this?"
Zhao Feng was startled: "What?"
Qin Li calmly said: "It's just a coincidence."
"Gong Su means—someone is plotting against the lord?"
Qin Li corrected him: "It's plotting against me."
"...Who is it? Who did it?" Zhao Feng evolved into a ferocious beast on the spot, and he couldn't hide his eyes that wanted to kill someone. "Gong Su, tell me, I'll kill him!"
Qin Li said: "Pray for Yuanliang."
This statement is in a declarative tone.
Zhao Feng frowned: "The prayer book under Shen Jun's account?"
Qin Li's eyes fell on the sand table in front: "The person who knows you best is often not a friend but an enemy. Although there is no evidence, my intuition tells me that this matter is inseparable from Qi Yuanliang. Even if he didn't do it himself , He also sent someone to instigate. Xu Wenzhu has been forced by Wu Gong to gradually renounce these years, and he has come closer to Longwu County. Shen Jun led the army and handed over the rear to Qi Yuanliang. Xu Wenzhu followed him After dealing with him a lot, how can he doubt him? It's almost inseparable..."
Zhao Feng: "... What is the picture of the Lord's book?"
Qin Li sneered: "As long as I stay under Wu Gong's tent for a day, Qi Yuanliang will not be at ease for a day, and will naturally be separated."
Zhao Feng scratched his head: "...how much hatred is this?"
Qin Li waved his hand.
The clouds on the sand table dissipated, and the mountains and rivers below were clearly visible. If you leaned over and took a closer look, you could see that there were many ant-like phantoms in Wu Xian's camp, and the layout of the small tents was exactly the same as the real camp!
Zhao Feng's brows and eyes were stained with worry.
"Gong Su?"
Qin Li said: "Don't worry, nothing happened."
The way of scribes in the perfect state consumes more than ordinary states, but Qin Li had to do so if he wanted to control the enemy's movements in real time. Of course, other than a few friends who lived and died together, this hole card is unknown to others, after all—
The threat is too great!
"Huang Lie and Zhang He have made moves."
Zhao Feng leaned over, his eyelashes were glued to the villain on the sand table: "Are they sending elites to detour?"
Under Qin Li's way of literati, any tactical tricks are useless. From this perspective, all living beings play chess!
Qin Li said: "Yes."
Zhao Feng asked again: "Do you want to remind the Lord?"
Wenxin scribes are full of holes, and they are well versed in the principle of the three holes of the cunning rabbit, and they always hide a hole card at all times. Qin Li is no exception to this point. His way of literati has been perfected for many years, but he has been hiding it from the outside world, including Wu Xian.
Even subordinates need secrets.
Qin Li lowered his eyes slightly.
After a long time, Zhao Feng heard him say: "Remind, of course we have to remind, but wait until the vanguard scouts have news."
Now he has become a fringe figure, without access to timely information. Even if he is clever, it is difficult to know how many troops the enemy has sent, when and from where. In the past, he wished he could tell the lord immediately.
but now?
Speaking out will not be adopted, and it will arouse suspicion.
Qin Li also needs to think about Zhao Feng and his group. They have followed him for so many years, but they haven't enjoyed much blessings, and they are full of aggrieved stomachs. Wu Xian's interests and their safety?
Qin Li now chooses the latter.
He has no intention of betraying Wu Xian.
As long as Wu Xian doesn't push him to that point!

Yuan Liang had a reason to be afraid of Qin Gongsu, not because he was staring at him. In terms of function, Qin Li's way of literati is stronger than that of Ah Yan's teacher, Jim Moyu, a former minister of the Xin Kingdom.
Jimo Yu's way of literati can be regarded as a living map, with clear distinctions between the enemy and us, and clear movement and movement, while Qin Li's way of literati can not only see the terrain and the enemy, but also affect the battlefield weather to a certain extent.
Of course, Niubi's skills are relatively life-threatening.
