Chapter 452 Li Gongde is open and honest, and the mysterious guest provoked the prince
Hearing the knock on the door, he was flipping through the strategy of a previous dynasty book “Kaiyuan Li”, and asked the adult to raise his head, gently put down the book, tidied up his clothes, and said calmly: “Come in.”
The familiar figure pushed the door and said to Li Gongde: “General Lingzhou meets with the strategy commander.”
Li Gongde’s expression was complicated. After this second-rank official who was famous for his melodious and flattering skills, he said in a deep voice: “The prince is well down, but he came later than Li Gongde’s expectation. The reason why he said this proves that the two secret letters were indeed planned by Your Highness. Beiliang needs such a King of Beiliang, so there is a saying that “come well”. If he comes late, he is dissatisfied with the kindness of His Highness’s wife, and he actually only handed out a letter to Li Gongde. After the secret letter, he neither turned against others immediately nor opened the letter immediately. He knew that the secret letter was the true letter. This means that the nobleman has been hesitating these days. Even if he mistakenly thought that Li Gongde had decided to surrender to the court, he still did not want to kill him. Such a prince, who is the general of Lingzhou, is more than enough. He is not in charge of the army. How can he drive the 300,000 cavalry of the Northern Liang that is the most powerful in the world in the future?
Xu Fengnian did not refute. Li Gongde smiled, moved two chairs out, and sat opposite each other. The strategy that was very different from usual made the adult look at this young face that was increasingly angular and whispered: “Your Highness, you may ask why Li Gongde did this in such a way. Since he had not surrendered to the court and was not tempted by Zhang Julu, why did he deliberately hide a fake letter. It is very simple. Your Highness carefully made a careful arrangement this time, almost using fake to distort the real, to test Li Gongde, the leader of the civil servants of Beiliang, and Li Gongde also wanted to know whether it was wise to stay in Beiliang. Your Highness…”
Speaking of this, Li Gongde stopped talking. Unlike the time he was in the study before, this time he was crying from the heart. He kept crying. Li Gongde did not wipe it and said slowly: “It’s too late to come down. This means that Your Highness is not the hero of troubled times who can be killed for his own achievements. Li Gongde has regrets, but he is more grateful. Hanlin was entrusted by me to such a King of Northern Liang, and even if he really wanted him to die on the battlefield one day, Li Gongde would not have any complaints. No one was a husband. Li Gongde has been an official for thirty years and has never seen a few people who are really destined to be punished in the end. Even if he is honored before death, he will be in trouble. As for descendants, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, and it has been since ancient times. Your Highness has a gloomy method, but he is not without meticulous heart, just like the general. This is the new Liang King Li Gongde really wants. To be honest, Your Highness may not believe it. It is not that Li Gongde was cunning and cunning, and he saw through His Highness’s plan at first sight, but Li Gongde determined that the general’s son would not treat the Li family badly and would not be sorry to Hanlin. He never thought of going to the court to be a bullshit first-rank powerful minister. If I go to the capital, Hanlin would not break up with my father and son. I will never recognize my father for my whole life, but I will only seek blessings for my descendants. My son is gone, and Li Gongde is already fifty-year-oldAs soon as he became a powerful temple official, he had to go into a coffin in a few years. He was given a posthumous title to the emperor, which was useful! Besides, being an official in a capital city where you are not familiar with the place can be comparable to being a wise man in Beiliang. Shu Xin, Li Gongde has been thinking about the way to become an official and studying the art of clinging. The old sayings say that Jiang is destined to be an old man, and I will not be too embarrassed to take a step at this age.
Your Highness, don’t worry, Li Gongde will never talk to Hanlin about the secret letter in his entire life. Your Highness has a clear conscience about Beiliang, and he should not have a grudge against Hanlin for this matter. Just think that Li Gongde begged Your Highness to avoid Hanlin from getting into a stubborn position. Your Highness, Hanlin will have to die at the border at that time! If Your Highness has a conscience to Li Hanlin alone, Li Gongde also asks Your Highness to think about Hanlin and never tell this matter! “
Li Gongde, who had never kneeled before, slowly knelt down and said in a deep voice: “If your Highness does not agree, Li Gongde will resign from the commander-in-chief! “
Xu Fengnian returned the secret letter to the Administrator and said calmly: “Uncle Li, Xu Fengnian promises you something. If he still has the opportunity to give his last words before his death in the future, he will promise that as long as the Xu family has been lucky for one day, no matter whether the Li family is loyal to the Xu family in the future, even if he commits a serious crime of corruption, he will protect the Li family. The Xu family will never raise a knife to kill people. “
Li Gongde’s body trembled, he lowered his head and choked and said, “Old minister thanked Your Highness for his great kindness first! “
Li Fuzhen saw his father kneeling on the ground at the door and said sharply: “Xu Fengnian! what are you up to! “
Li Gongde, who was supported by His Royal Highness, shouted: “Really, don’t be rude! “
Xu Fengnian smiled and said, “Uncle Li, I want to avenge you. From today on, Xu Beizhi will be the governor of Lingzhou. “
Li Gongde wiped his face and laughed, “What a big deal, it’s not worth telling His Highness himself. “
“Also, Hanlin has returned to Youzhou safely. “
After Xu Fengnian whispered this sentence, she said goodbye and left, passing by Li Fuzhen. Li Gongde, who was ecstatic in his heart, carefully hid the secret letter and glared at his daughter, “I don’t know the importance of it! “
Li Fuzhen said angrily: “Dad, you are the governor of Beiliang Dao. You kneel down to Uncle Xu. You flatter Uncle Xu. Your daughter has never said nonsense. But Xu Fengnian is just a general in Lingzhou. Before he inherited the King of Beiliang, he will make you kneel down. Why is he worth it! He always speaks “Uncle Li” and says nicely. He never really treats you as an elder! “
Li Gongde narrowed his eyes and stared at his daughter, smiling and said, “Why is the reason why the prince’s prince has already made his father’s strategy difficult and busy. Just because he dared to use Zhong Hongwu as the hard bone in the Northern Liang army, he was the first to cut the knife, instead of picking soft persimmons and pinching them to add a laughing stock! Just because he lives to this day! “
Li Gongde was so distressed that he burst into tears when he saw his daughter’s grievance, and lowered his voiceYin, approached her and wiped her tears. Li Fuzhen ignored her head and avoided her. The master sighed, “Dad, don’t you know that he didn’t regard his father as his elder before. Besides, his father did not regard him as the prince, but it will be different in the future. You, don’t be angry with his father. The stupidest thing a woman in the world does is the word “angry”. “
Li Gongde seemed to feel that his words were heavy and laughed softly, “Zhen’er, today is a blessing for the Li family. It’s even happier than being a counselor. Have a drink with his father.”
Li Fuzhen remained silent.
