Concubine Li said: "Shang Shuling, the Great Zhou is here, and all members of Duke Li's family can enjoy the glory and wealth, and everyone from one family can enter the court as an official. When Wang Qi arrived in Chang'an, he even won the world, but Duke Li's family did not This is power."

"As far as the Ai family knows, there are still not enough officials in Li Gong's family. As for Li Gong, he is getting old and getting older. Could it be that Wang Qi will still use you?"

Concubine Li said: "Could it be that Wang Qi will give preferential treatment to those unscrupulous descendants under your knees for you?"

These words are more direct.

After hearing this, Li Hongzhong's expression changed slightly.

Some of the heirs of his Li family are indeed disappointing, and there are not many outstanding people.However, she is not such a waste as Li Fei said, she still has talents.

Li Hongzhong took a deep breath, and said again: "Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, for the current plan, it is not easy to prepare to resist Wang Qi's army. In the eyes of the veteran, there are only four things that can be done now."

Zhao Gandao: "Mr. Li, please tell me."

Li Hongzhong said in a deep voice: "First, no matter what, troops must be dispatched to guard the front line. The old minister suggested that a general should be dispatched immediately to lead the army to Hulao Pass outside Luoyang to guard Hulao Pass."

"Hulao Pass is the passage to enter Guanzhong. The city wall is tall and thick, and the terrain is difficult and dangerous. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as Hulao Pass is guarded, everything will be easy, and Guanzhong will be in the hands of the imperial court."

"Of course, this guarding cannot be done solely by the army. We have to arrange people to go to Zixia Mountain and ask Zixia Mountain for help. After all, there are great masters in Zixia Mountain, and they can go down the mountain to help us to defend it better."

Li Hongzhong said: "As for the candidates, according to the veteran, Xu Huanshan, the commander of the imperial army, is suitable for leading troops. Although Xu Huanshan is the commander of the imperial army, in the past, he was also a general comparable to Wang Zongxi and Li Sheng. Can keep it."

Zhao Gan nodded and said, "What about the second thing?"

Li Hongzhong said: "Secondly, Your Majesty, please arrange someone to tell the people all over the world that Wang Qi has a heart of disobedience, call on the people in the world to boycott Wang Qi, and call on the people in the world to deal with Wang Qi."

"No matter what, the Great Zhou Dynasty still has a certain influence in the hearts of countless people. The common people may not feel much, but the scholars in the world resist, and Wang Qi's Qi Dynasty will always be affected. Even let these people write a letter Say, dissuade Wang Qi."

"This matter requires the Black Dragon Platform to operate immediately. At least, let these people hold back Wang Qi's retreat. As long as Wang Qi is restrained, at least it can hold time and give Da Zhou, Wei and Chu a chance."

"Thirdly, dispatch people from the Black Dragon Terrace to assassinate the officials of the Qi State. Although the main officials in the Qi State are protected, once the assassination continues, it will cause internal turmoil in Qi, and it will be of great help to us now."

"This point is not difficult for Heilongtai."

"Fourth, arrange people to notify Chu and Wei again that my Great Zhou has already made a move, and let them resist with all their strength. Only in this way can they resist with all their strength."

"For Da Zhou, Wei and Chu are two barriers that must not be lost. Once these two most important barriers are lost, it is tantamount to cutting off one's arm."

Li Hongzhong solemnly said: "Your Majesty, these are the four suggestions of the old minister. Starting from these four aspects, we should weaken Qi State, at least set obstacles for Qi State, so as to gain a first-line opportunity."

Linghu Qianli's heart turned cold when he heard Li Hongzhong's words.

Li Hongzhong's methods are really ruthless.

Linghu Qianli was a little reluctant, he said: "Your Majesty, according to Shang Shuling's method, it is equivalent to all the people who have arranged the Black Dragon Terrace in Qi country, all take action."

"As soon as these people act, they will be discovered. At that time, the eyeliners placed in Qi will be completely removed. Further, our power will be defeated."

"Even if it succeeds, a suicidal assassination method can be adopted, which will cause huge losses. In the next few years, the power we arrange in Qi will be weakened."

Linghu Qianli said: "This is not very cost-effective."

Li Hongzhong's eyes were sharp, and he said, "Commander Linghu raises troops for a thousand days and uses them for a short period of time. At this critical juncture, it is impossible to think about the long-term. If you think about other things, the current situation is even more difficult. You can't grasp anything. Even Yu, people who don't use the Black Dragon Terrace at this time, wait for Wang Qibing to come to the city before using it? At that time, everything will be abolished."

Zhao Gan nodded and said: "Governor Linghu, follow the arrangement of Shang Shuling."

"As ordered!"

Linghu Qianli replied immediately.

Concubine Li's eyes rolled. Although she was a woman, she was not mediocre. She said slowly: "At this moment, simply being arranged by Shang Shuling is not enough."

Zhao Qiandao: "What advice does the queen mother have?"

Li Hongzhong said: "I would like to listen to the Queen Mother's instructions."

Concubine Li said slowly: "The battle between the two countries is no longer a moral battle, but a battle of life and death. On this occasion, if you want to make a move, you must go all out and leave no room for relaxation."

"The third point mentioned by Mr. Li is that the assassination of officials of the Qi State is not limited to the assassination of officials of the State of Qi. It can even kidnap the sons of the officials of the State of Qi and make the officials of the State of Qi work for us."

"In short, there is no limit to the means, and it can be done in a variety of ways."

"In addition, we can't just focus on the Qi country. We also need to make arrangements for the entire area within the Great Zhou."

"The imperial court issues decrees. Anyone who can come up with effective strategies against Qi will be promoted to three ranks. If it is really effective and effective, the imperial court will directly confer the title of Marquis."

"Similarly, once Heilongtai discovers that there are people who dare to collude with Qi, the nine clans will be implicated, and no one will be left behind."

"This is Aijia's proposal."

Concubine Li said slowly: "Shang Shuling, what do you think?"

Li Hongzhong's heart turned cold.

The empress dowager's mind was really cold, so the situation in Da Zhou was immediately tightened.Of course, because of the benefits given by the imperial court, many people will naturally support the imperial court.

Li Hongzhong echoed, "The Queen Mother is wise!"

Zhao Gan ordered: "Commander Linghu, you can arrange the matter directly."

"I obey my orders!"

Linghu Qianli responded directly.

At this moment, another servant hurried in and reported: "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince of Chu, Xiong Zhuang, is seeking an audience outside the palace."

Zhao Gan was a little surprised when he heard it, why did the prince of Chu come?

Zhao Gan couldn't figure it out for a while.

Zhao Gan didn't waste any time, and ordered: "Tell me!"

The servant hurriedly went to deliver the order again.

Li Hongzhong, Linghu Qianli and Li Concubine were all thoughtful, because the arrival of Xiongzhuang at this time may not be good news.

Not long after, Xiongzhuang stepped in.

Xiong Zhuang came to Dazhou this time. He led the army on the way before, but after arriving at the border of Dazhou, he was quickly stopped by the border garrison, so Xiongzhuang left the army and slowly came to Chang'an, and he took Wei Xi to take the first step. Hurry up and quickly arrive in Chang'an.

Xiong Zhuang was full of travel and dust, and he was very tired.After he stood still, he saluted and said, "Xiong Village of Chu State, I pay my respects to His Majesty the Great Zhou Emperor."

Zhao Gandao: "Xiongzhuang, why did you come here?"

Xiong Zhuang choked up and said: "Your Majesty, Xiong Zhuang came today to ask His Majesty to take him in."

Zhao Qian had a bad premonition in his heart, and asked, "What happened?"

Xiong Zhuang said: "Chu Kingdom is destroyed!"

"what!"

Zhao Gan couldn't help but exclaimed.

Li Hongzhong, Linghu Qianli and Li Fei were also very surprised when they heard this.The news from Xiongzhuang is really shocking. They never expected that Chu State would be directly destroyed by Wang Qi.

How can it be?

Anyway, Chu State is also the overlord.

The century-old heritage of the Chu Kingdom was destroyed just like that.

Zhao Gan stabilized his mind, and quickly said: "What is going on, why is it directly destroyed."

Xiong Zhuang didn't hide anything, and said directly: "When my father led troops to resist Wang Qi in Qichun County, he was betrayed by Cai Heng, the great master of Chu State, and led him to Wang Qi's military camp..."

He elaborated bit by bit, and after all the news was finished, Xiong Zhuang sighed: "Now that Wang Qi is in charge of the Chu Kingdom, I will bring more than two thousand soldiers to Chang'an to seek refuge. I beseech Your Majesty to take them in."

Zhao Gan was immediately displeased.

Came for help.

He needs help now, and needs someone to resist Wang Qi for him.Although Zhao Gan didn't like it, he also knew that the current Great Zhou needed more people to help and unite more forces.

Zhao Gan said: "Xiong Zhuang, I support you."

Li Hongzhong took advantage of the situation and said: "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince of Chu is here, and the old minister has a suggestion."

Zhao Gandao: "Shang Shuling, please tell me."

Li Hongzhong looked at Xiong Zhuang and asked, "Prince Xiong, how many of the Nanyang County in the north of Chu State belong to Chu State?"

Xiong Zhuang shook his head and said, "I don't know yet."

Li Hongzhong turned to look at Zhao Gan, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, on this occasion, we immediately dispatched a group of elite troops to support Prince Xiong, and asked him to return to Nanyang County to organize troops to resist in Nanyang County. As long as Wang Qi's With the army guarding the front line of Nanyang County, it is impossible for Wang Qi to go north, this is our first line of defense."

Zhao Gan asked, "How many troops do we need to dispatch?"

Li Hongzhong thought for a while, and said: "A rough estimate is that at least 5 people are needed. Besides, when Prince Xiong returns to Nanyang County, he can call up the old troops, and then our troops will be even stronger."

Xiong Zhuang shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it won't be easy."

Zhao Gandao: "Why do you say that?"

Xiong Zhuang said: "The huge city of Xiangyang, as the capital of the Chu Kingdom, has been captured. With 5 people alone, it is difficult to resist Wang Qi's army. After all, Wang Qi's army strength far exceeds this number."

"In addition, Wang Qi is now a grand master. His strength is so powerful that killing a grand master is like killing a chicken. According to the information obtained, the two great masters of the Barbarian God Sect were all killed by Wang Qi."

Xiong Zhuang said: "Under this premise, if you want to resist Wang Qi, you must at least have a great master to restrain you, otherwise it will be difficult to succeed."

Zhao Gan nodded and said: "Although Wang Qi is a grand master, it is not a problem. Please help Zixia Mountain. The grand master of Zixia Mountain should be dispatched. With the grand master of Zixia Mountain restraining Wang Qi, the army is not enough to kill him." Fearing Wang Qi's army, it shouldn't be difficult to defend Nanyang County."

Xiong Zhuang said: "I would like to listen to His Majesty's arrangement."

Under the current circumstances, as long as Da Zhou is willing to support, Xiong Zhuang has no objections.If he can take back Nanyang County and regain his foothold, everything will be fine, at least he will have a chance to counterattack and go back.

Xiong Zhuang thought for a while and said, "Actually, in the south of Chu State, Satana, the priest of the Barbarian Sect, retreated. He also had a sworn hatred with Wang Qi. He brought people in the south of Chu State, and he could also restrain Wang Qi. Qi's army, and even attacked the rear."

Li Hongzhong said: "Wang Qi just took over the Chu Kingdom. To seize the territory and control the Chu Kingdom, a large number of troops are needed. So even if Wang Qi wants to go north, there will not be too many troops."

"As Prince Xiong said just now, Wang Qi will be restrained. On this occasion, we are fighting Wang Qi's army, and [-] elites are enough. This time, the veteran suggests that Xu Huanshan go."

"In addition, Zixia Mountain must be notified and confirmed as soon as possible. If no one comes out from Zixia Mountain, it will not be able to stop Wang Qi's army from attacking. After all, Wang Qi is a master in the Grand Master realm."

Li Hongzhong said: "Changing the plan right now, move Hulaoguan to Nanyang County."

Concubine Li said: "As for the Great Chan Temple, Governor Linghu went to arrange it. The Sanqing Temple and Zixia Mountain are hostile. The Sanqing Temple is the state religion of Qi State, and Zixia Mountain has no choice."

"As ordered!"

Linghu Qianli replied immediately.

Zhao Gan nodded and said: "Let's arrange it like this. Immediately notify the government. Speed ​​is needed. Time waits for no one. We must stop Wang Qi's offensive in the shortest possible time. Otherwise, we will not be able to stop Qi's offensive."

Linghu Qianli, Li Hongzhong and Xiong Zhuang got up and left to prepare for the next battle.

It's just that Linghu Qianli hadn't gone far, another court lady came in a hurry, came to Linghu Qianli's side, and said: "Governor Linghu, the Queen Mother invites you to go."

Linghu Qianli heard the words, turned around and turned back.

He went to the harem, and not long after, he saw Concubine Li, bowed and saluted: "Queen Dowager!"

Concubine Li was sitting upright, she looked at Linghu Qianli, and said slowly: "Brother Linghu!"

Linghu Qianli hurriedly said: "The queen mother has defeated the evil minister."

Concubine Li said leisurely: "In my heart, you have always been the elder brother of the Ai family. Because of the presence of Brother Linghu, our two mothers are able to have what we are today. It's just that the good times don't last long, and now we are facing the choice of life and death. The Great Zhou was in turmoil, the court I can't hold it any longer."

Linghu Qianli said in relief: "Queen Mother, the current predicament is only temporary. As long as he survives the current predicament, Da Zhou will naturally come to the end of all hardships."

"Difficult, too difficult."

Concubine Li shook her head and said: "I don't expect anything to unify the world and unify the world again. For me, as long as the current situation can be maintained, it is already very good. It's just that Wang Qi insists on killing him. It is quite dangerous. So now I ask Zixia Mountain to come forward, so that I can fail again."

Linghu Qianli said: "I should go all out."

Concubine Li said: "Persuasion alone, even if you know the benefits, may not be successful."

Linghu Qianli said: "Please show me the Queen Mother."

Since Concubine Li said so, she must have an idea, Linghu Qianli is very sure of this.

He is familiar with Li Fei's handling style.

Concubine Li took out a token from her sleeve, and said: "Brother Linghu, you can take this token. When you see Zeng Hong, the Supreme Elder of Zixia Mountain, you asked Zixia Mountain to help him, he will naturally I understand."

Linghu Qianli took it, and he looked at the token, which was made of jade.On the back is a blooming peony flower, and on the front is a flower character.With the token in hand, the jade is warm and moist, very comfortable.

Even though Linghu Qianli was in charge of the Black Dragon Platform, he didn't know much about this token, let alone the coldness behind this token.

Linghu Qianli put it away carefully, and said: "I will take my leave."

"Wait a minute!"

Concubine Li stood up, she walked to Linghu Qianli, looked at Linghu Qianli who was a little nervous, she smiled sweetly, stretched out her arms and hugged Linghu Qianli.
