Hearing Young Master Liu's somewhat strange murmur, Suzaku also turned his attention to the contents of the letter in Liu Mingzhi's hand.
After reading the contents of the letter under the light, Suzaku immediately looked at Young Master Liu nervously: "Master, what should we do? If King Zhao succeeds, will it affect your plan?"
Liu Mingzhi lit the letter against the candlelight and threw it into the brazier. He shook his head silently: "It's hard to say. Whether this kid can pass the spy level is a question.
However, Lao Zhou said that the real spy shadow would not interfere with the rebellion of the prince of the Li clan. Maybe the shadow master, the Twelve Shadow Guardians and other old people really would not interfere with the rebellion of this boy Li Tao.
.
This guy was so decisive, he raised the troops when he was told, without any hesitation. He must have been planning for a long time, and he may have learned something from some of the clansmen, Wei Di and Xuan Di around him.
He raised troops to Beijing under the pretext of clearing my name and seeking justice. This kid's mentality is not much worse than that of his elder brother.
It’s just that there is no question whether he took advantage of Li Geng, the crown prince of King Shu, or whether Li Geng, prince of Prince Shu, took advantage of him.
I have never met Li Geng, the prince of Shu, and I don’t know much about his character and conduct.
But I know quite well what kind of person Li Tao is."
After Liu Mingzhi finished speaking, he recalled that after he accidentally took aphrodisiacs, He Shu and his mother and son were on their way to express condolences to Li Zheng and the late emperor Li Baiyu.
.
Liu Mingzhi knew in his heart that Li Tao must have known something at that time, and the reason why he deliberately pretended to be confused and endured it was to win over him.
To put it nicely, it means knowing the general situation, knowing how to advance and retreat, and knowing how to be patient.
The worst thing to say is that there is some unscrupulousness.
Liu Mingzhi thought for a while, rubbed his temples and his eyes became serious.
If this kid like Li Tao intervenes, he might give Marshal Yun a reason to lead troops to the capital to rescue King Qin. Then all his plans will be in vain because of his sudden intervention.
No, we must put some pressure on Mr. Yun.
“Quier, prepare your pen and ink!”
Knowing that the matter was of great importance, Zhuque did not continue to talk to Liu Mingzhi, but walked to the desk and began to study ink.
After a while, Liu Mingzhi stuffed the letter into an envelope and handed it to Zhuque.
“Send it to Rongrong and ask her to act according to the instructions in the letter.”
“Yes, Suzaku excuses himself.”
After Suzaku flew out of the window and disappeared, Liu Mingzhi hurriedly walked behind the screen. Looking at the sleeping Queen, Liu Mingzhi leaned over and pushed the Queen's shoulder.
“Hmm! What’s wrong?”
“To put it mildly, you go find Yue’er right away and ask her to come to the study to meet me.”
The queen opened her sleepy eyes and stared at the solemn-faced Young Master Liu: "It must be getting late, why are you looking for her at this time?"
“There is something very important and I don’t know how to explain it to you. Just go find Yue’er and come over.”
"All right!"
The Queen yawned, stretched her arms horizontally to relax her graceful figure, picked up her cloak and walked out of the study.
After the Queen left the study, Liu Mingzhi wandered around the study with a restless expression.
First, the Western Turks Spismult and those fools from Tsarist Russia messed up their first step of planning, and now Li Tao's sudden attack on the army is about to mess up his second step of planning.
If this continues, he will have no choice but to rebel forcefully, but if this happens, Dalong will inevitably fall into dire straits.
This is not what I want to see.
Recalling the reaction of Princess He Shu in the palace of Prince Zhao in the past, she was always dissatisfied with Li Tao's desire to get close to her. It is said that he should be extremely opposed to Li Tao's reaction.
Why didn’t they stop it this time?
There was a loud knock on the door, which made Liu Mingzhi wake up.
“Master, Xiaosong.”
"Come in!"
"yes!"
Liu Song pushed open the door and walked in. Looking at Liu Mingzhi, who was healthy and sound, standing by the desk, he let out a long breath.
“Master, seeing you safe and sound with my own eyes, Xiaosong is completely relieved.”
“Sit down and talk.”
“Thank you, Master!”
Liu Mingzhi picked up the pot and poured two cups of tea. He sat across from Liu Song and looked at Liu Song's dusty face and nodded happily.
“Thank you for your hard work these days.”
“No hard work, no hard work, this is what Xiaosong should do. As long as the young master is safe and sound, Xiaosong deserves it no matter how hard he works.
By the way, young master, this is a letter from King Zhao Li Tao to young master Chengzhi. Xiao Song stopped him and delivered it to you, young master.
This is why I had to rush to the study to meet you as soon as I came back."
Liu Mingzhi looked startled for a moment, took the letter from Liu Song's hand, and started reading it under the light.
After a while, Liu Mingzhi threw the letter into the brazier with a gloomy expression.
Li Tao actually wanted to drag Liu Chengzhi into the water. It seems that he was determined to win this rebellion.
Unfortunately, he didn't know that although Liu Chengzhi was officially the King of One Side One Side by One, the right to speak about commanding the 240,000 soldiers of the Sixth Guards and the Third Army of the New Army was still the King of One Side Side by One who was no longer alive, his uncle Liu Chengzhi.
Mingzhi is in control.
“Liu Song, go and take Chengzhi to school. This child has not experienced strong winds and waves. It might be counterproductive.
By the way, is the wound on Chengfeng’s arm okay?”
“Don’t worry, young master, the wound on young master Chengfeng’s body has already healed, leaving only a terrifying scar.”
Liu Mingzhi nodded silently: "Scars are a trivial matter, as long as the person is fine.
He is the elder brother among many brothers and sisters, and some responsibilities must be shouldered by him."
“The young master is saying that Master Chengfeng is indeed very responsible and has a big brother.”
“Dad, the moon is here!”
The little cutie was leaning on the study door with her head hanging out, her eyes filled with inquiry.
"come in."
"OK, all right!"
Liu Mingzhi was silent for a moment and waved his hand to Liu Song.
“Liu Song, please go back and rest first. The matter about the letter sent by King Zhao to Chengzhi is not allowed to be leaked to anyone, not even Chengzhi himself.”
“The little one understands, the little one resigns.”
Little Cutie watched Liu Song leave the study, walked to Young Master Liu and stopped.
“Dad, Yue’er just went to bed. Did you ask mother to come to me for something?”
“Come here, daddy will tell you something.”
"okay!"
After a while, the little cutie scratched his forehead and looked at his father in confusion.
“Did Yue’er really do this, or did she create rumors to scare others?”
“Silly girl, of course you are trying to scare others. Your mother will not allow you to lead your troops to the south at this time.”
“Yeah, yeah, Yue’er knows, I’ll set off tomorrow.”
Liu Mingzhi looked at the well-behaved little cutie, lowered his head and kissed the little cutie on the forehead.
“Daddy, my dear Yue’er, daddy will send someone to protect you secretly, take care.”
“Yeah, yeah, Yue’er knows, next time daddy kisses Yue’er on the cheek like before, okay?”
"No, Yue'er is already a big girl, and dad can no longer kiss Yue'er's face."
The little cutie wrinkled her nose a few times and nodded boredly: "Okay, if there's nothing else, Yue'er will go back and rest first."
“Well, be careful!”
After the little cutie left, Mr. Liu had a hearty meal after Qi Yun brought him food. In the dead of night, the couple walked hand in hand towards Qi Ya's courtyard.
Fortunately, the maids had already rested for a long time, otherwise there would have been rumors spread privately.
The prince has been traveling for many days, and a disturbing note came from the room of one of the prince's wives. It was impossible not to cause some rumors.
The next day, the little cutie quietly left the princess under the covert protection of the two kings and hundreds of spies.
Seven days later, a rumor spread throughout the twenty-seven prefectures of Northern Xinjiang.
The little princess Wanyan Luoyue of the Kingdom of Jin was dissatisfied with the perfunctory explanation given by the Dalong court about the assassination of her father Liu Mingzhi. She had rushed back to the grassland to prepare her troops to go south. She wanted to fight Dalong to the death. Troops from various Turkic tribes responded one after another and wanted to fight with the Jin Kingdom.
The little princess Wanyan Luoyue and her troops went south to attack the city.
In just a few days, people in many prefectures and capitals in northern Xinjiang have once again become panicky.
Many days later, rumors about King Zhao's rebellion spread again, causing Dalong to fall into complete panic.
Soon after Zhao Wang Li Tao led his troops to the capital city, the Northern Expeditionary Army commander Yunyang sent a force to aid the capital, and the news reached Liu Mingzhi.
Liu Mingzhi also received a private letter from Cheng Kai and six others.
The 240,000 soldiers have already purchased enough food and grass to supply themselves and their horses, and are rushing to the east, west, north, and south directions of the capital. They can rush into the capital as soon as Liu Mingzhi gives the order.
Liu Mingzhi couldn't calm down and walked around in the study holding the letter. After a long time, Liu Mingzhi stood in front of the window, staring at the scenery outside the window hesitantly, muttering two things that his elder brother Song Qing had mentioned more than once.
