It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 1018

The toughest enemies are often the ones you don't understand. Qi Jiguang cast a wide net in response to this action, and the elites of Yulongwei came out.

But until now, the net he cast has not caught Cheng Dalei. He has been led by Cheng Dalei's nose all the time, and often just got news of Cheng Dalei, and when he rushed over, he rushed to nothing.

By boasting about Haikou in front of Li Xingzai, he would be able to lock Cheng Dalei's position in three to five days, but more than half a month later, Qi Jiguang still found nothing.

He had to meet Li Xingzai to report the current situation.

Li Xingzai's face was dark and gloomy, and he was speechless for a long time after hearing Qi Jiguang's report.

Qi Jiguang was quite ashamed, clasped his fists with both hands and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, your subordinates will resolve the trouble as soon as possible, so that Your Majesty will not be worried."

Li Xingzai glanced at him and said, "The matter has been delayed long enough, how fast is it as soon as possible?"

"This..." Qi Jiguang was speechless.

Li Xingzai sighed helplessly: "Let's go to Qingniu Mountain, he will go to Qingniu Mountain."

Qi Jiguang was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "My subordinates will do it immediately."

Li Xingzai knew Cheng Dalei just as Cheng Dalei knew Li Xingzai. Li Xingzai guessed right, Cheng Dalei made a big circle, and the final destination was indeed Qingniu Mountain.

When Li Xingzai predicted this, Qi Jiguang gave an order, and the Yulong Guards scattered out rushed towards Qingniu Mountain, chasing and blocking them all the way, setting up many barriers.

In this way, it is not easy for Cheng Dalei to get rid of Yulongwei's tracking.

Bai Yuanfei had already reported the transfer of Yulongwei to Cheng Dalei, and they even blatantly clung to Cheng Dalei's back, not afraid of being discovered by Cheng Dalei.

In response to the actions of Yulongwei, Cheng Dalei changed from darkness to light, and played the banner of inspection on behalf of the emperor.

In this way, Qi Jiguang was a bit of a jerk. This time, the action against Cheng Dalei had to be done in secret, and he couldn't start the action with a stance and a gun. Otherwise, the more than 100,000 elites in Liangzhou and the 100,000 Liangzhou soldiers led by Liu Bei are not decorations after all.

However, Yulongwei was secretly moving towards Qingniu Mountain and secretly making arrangements. Waiting for Cheng Dalei to be arrested, sooner or later, the one who should be killed will be killed.

When the two sides were calm on the surface and the swords were drawn in secret, the August Festival was just around the corner, and the princes of the world had already entered the capital.

On the one hand, he is concerned about Cheng Dalei's affairs, and on the other hand, he manages the affairs of the General Assembly. Set the fiefdom rewards for the feudal lords in various places, and for the civil servants and military generals under his command, the rewards that should be awarded should be awarded.

Although Li Xingzai conquered the country, he couldn't swallow the cake alone, and he still had to share what he deserved. They are all like a wolf like a tiger. If they dare to swallow it alone, they are afraid that they will immediately show their fangs.

Now Li Xingzai already misses the existence of Cheng Dalei a little. He fights his own brothers, and fights father and son soldiers. If Cheng Dalei is poking at the side, plus the 300,000 Liangzhou soldiers behind him, the princes in the world would dare to be presumptuous.

Killing a vicious tiger attracted a pack of wolves. Now Li Xingzai is also thinking whether it is the right choice to take action against Cheng Dalei after listening to Qi Jiguang's instigation.

Song Youqu was reporting to Li Xingzai about the meeting of the princes, discussing the titles of princes in various places. Li Xingzai was already wandering in the sky, pondering his own mind.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Song Youqu called out twice before Li Xingzai came back to his senses. He waved his hand and said, "Just do as you said. You still need to pay more attention to this matter."

"Subordinates obey."

Song Youqu agreed and put away the memorial, with a hesitant look on his face, he hesitated.

Li Xingzai stared at him curiously: "Why, is there anything else?"

Song Youqu sighed: "I do have something on my mind, but I don't know if I should say it or not."

"Then don't talk about it." Li Xingzai said.

"Uh..." Song Youqu was so choked up that although he was the honorary of the Ninety Five, His Majesty's style was still the same as before.

Song Youqu paused and said, "I feel that I still have to report to Your Majesty."

Li Xingzai rolled his eyes at him and said, "Speak."

Song Youqu lowered his head and summoned his courage: "I used to stay in Toad Village, and I did things with Lord Cheng for a period of time. Although it is rumored that Lord Cheng has done all kinds of evil things, from the perspective of my ministers, Lord Cheng still has a bottom line. His merits to the world outweigh his demerits, and this minister has also told Cheng Wangye. This time, I would like to ask your majesty, what title should be given to Cheng Wangye?"

Li Xingzai's eyes narrowed, Song Youqu speaking freely this time is really bold.

There is no impermeable wall in the world. Could it be that his actions against Cheng Dalei leaked the wind. Where is Song Youqu seeking a title for Cheng Dalei, he is begging for Cheng Dalei.

Li Xingzai's face returned to calm, and he asked casually, "According to what you said, what title should be given to him?"

"The dead guard is called loyalty, and the pacification of chaos is called martial arts." Song You channel: "What does your majesty think of King Zhongwu?"

"Zhongwu?" Li Xingzai muttered these two words, and sneered from the bottom of his heart.

He did not affirm but did not deny, and asked: "Song Youqu, as far as I know, you were trapped in Toad Village as a hostage at the beginning, and Cheng Dalei was not polite to you at all, but you seem to admire him very much."

Song Youqu had already opened his heart, and he simply said to the ground: "At that time, everyone was their own master, and what the lord did was his own duty. As a son of the Song family, I should consider the family, but as Song Youqu himself, I really admire it in my heart. Lord Cheng's behavior."

The past is also a confused account. Li Xingzai was once imprisoned in Song Bokang, and he parted ways with Ye Yuanhuo for this matter. And Song Bokang's defeat in Liangzhou City was also caused by Cheng Dalei. Later, he was beheaded by Bailisheng, and he had nothing to do with Cheng Dalei.

The power of the former empire was complex, and each had its own proposition, but he never expected that Song Youqu had no grudges in the past, and was willing to say a word for Cheng Dalei.

"Youqu, you really impress me."

Song Youqu lowered his head: "We are ashamed to be worthy."

Li Xingzai smiled and said: "Youqu, you and I didn't encounter something that we didn't meet. At that time, you were desperate, and I didn't get along very well. I supported this way, fighting the East China Sea, pacifying the south of the Yangtze River, sweeping away the Rong tribe, and heading north to the Central Plains, yes. It is extremely difficult to get to this day. Today, I can win the world, and you have made a great contribution. This time, I have reserved a place for you to reward the ministers with merit."

Song Youqu knelt on both knees: "Thank you for your love."

Li Xingzai nodded: "Go down and do things."

"The title of Prince Cheng?"

The smile on Li Xingzai's face froze, and his eyes became extremely cold. He turned around and faced Song Youqu with his back.

"I know this matter in my mind, let's discuss it again."
