11. Final Negative Covenant

Who would have thought that as soon as he got home, all the servants came out to tell him that his brother Li Shidao heard that he would return the three states to the country, so he rushed back from the position of the governor of Mizhou.

When Li Shigu walked to the central hall, he saw Shidao, his wife Wei, and several family slaves kneeling there and crying loudly. He felt bad. He sat on the couch and stared at Shidao and shouted: "Even you object to me to offer the Three Prefectures. Do you want to give your Mizhou as an envoy? You are unhappy and ran hundreds of miles to get angry at my brother."

"Brother, how dare I oppose my brother's plan for the sake of the mere governor of Mizhou?" Li Shidao cried and said, "I am just afraid of going to the capital. It is called "Zunrong Brother", but in fact I am serving as a hostage to Chang'an. Thinking about Liu Shining from Xuanwu, after being conquered into the court, he lived a life worse than a prisoner. Of course, I am not unable to live a hard life. But if the court becomes more aggressive and takes my brother as a stamina, he threatens my brother to cut off more prefectures and counties, then the family business of the Pinglu Li family will be destroyed in the hands of our brother!"

At this time, Li Shidao's wife Wei and two concubines from Mizhou. Pu and Yuan also started crying, saying, "This brother should not be separated from life and death. If one is in Chang'an and the other is in Yunzhou in the future, this family will be broken."

Several slaves also pretended to cry, shouting, "Ziqing originally had fifteen states, all of which were made by Sikong (Li Zhengji) with one sword and one shot. It's not easy. But first he was cut off Xuzhou by the court, and then he was occupied by Wang Wujun to Dezhou and Dizhou. The remaining twelve states must not be cut off again. We would rather die and continue to serve Sikong than watch the good situation of Pinglu Army and were tragically dismembered!"

"War, there is no certainty of victory. Harmony will not satisfy your wishes. One, two, three, are all invading me. It would be better to let me take charge of the situation in Chang'an." Li Shigu was really upset by these close relatives and slaves, and stood up and shouted in anger.

Then he pulled open the folded collar of his clothes, gasped heavily, and said to Li Shidao angrily: "If the court fails to commit an agreement, the court will launch an attack on the confrontation, do you think that Liu Wu and Liu Yanping can fight against Du Huangshang and Gao Yue? If they receive troops today, they will sell my brothers for three or five cents tomorrow."

"Brother is not afraid. They all have wives and children in the military mansion. Who dares not fight to the death?" Li Shidao raised his face and in turn comforted Shi Gu.

Li Shigu looked at this incompetent brother, sighed, and then cursed: "In this world, your wife and children are nothing! I can regret the court, who can guarantee that others will not regret me?"

Li Shidao cried so much that his nose was flowing out, and he said sadly: "Since my brother has made up his mind, I will go to Chang'an. If the court turns against you, I will learn from Wu Shaoyang, kill my wife, concubines, children, and then burn myself to the fire."

"Burn, burn a dog's feet." Li Shigu was furious, "You go to Chang'an with your wives and concubines, but your sons Hongfang and Ming'an stay for me, so you have to leave some blood for Pinglu Army."

As a result, when Wei heard this, he immediately whistled a trombone and prostrated himself as if he had lost his parents.

At the critical moment, Si Chang came to report that Wei Bo had a secret envoy.

Half an hour later, in the side hall, Li Shigu's eyes lit up, as if he saw a life-saving straw floating on the water, and said to Wei Bo's secret envoy: "Yanshanshan, go back and tell you that the queen of your family. From now on, I will be your Wei's unswerving friend. Wei will not let me down, and I will never sell Wei. Also, have Zhao and Yan contacted me?"

The secret envoy replied: "Don't worry during the festival. King Chengde Wu Jun and Liu Ji from Youyan both expressed their willingness to join hands and fight against the court side by side."

"Wang Wujun is my elder, an unparalleled person in the field of Yannan Heshuo. Liu Ji's Youyan army is also brave generals like clouds and rain. With you here, I, Ziqing, will be safe and worry-free!" Li Shigu spread his arms and was overjoyed.

Then he assured the envoy:

After winning the court, Xing Ciming belongs to you, Wei Bo, Xu Si belongs to me, Ziqing, Youyan can get Zhenwu, Tiandezhen, Hedong belongs to Wang Wujun, everyone is called kings side by side, I am the King of Qi, your young master Tian Ji'an is the King of Wei, Wang Wujun is the King of Zhao, and Liu Ji is the King of Yan. At that time, the court's country was broken and broken, Gao Yue was a hero who knew the current affairs. At worst, the King of Wu was his, Wei Gao could be the Emperor of Shu, Du You could be the King of Nanyue, and then let that Mudi Zanpu be the King of Liang. My Emperor Tang is only in Chang'an City, governing, and the princes do not invade each other, and rescue each other in danger. Isn't this also in line with the righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period? What kind of practice is the Secretariat system, and it is all about the mind.

After the secret envoy left, Mr. Li felt his steps flying and had a good night's dream. The next day, he happily supported Mr. A's shoulder and said you don't have to go to Chang'an to be a hostage.

"Really?" Li Shidao felt the sorrow and joy were rising and falling, and his eyes were about to fall out.

"Wei Bo, Hengji, Youyan all agreed to join forces with us. I am not afraid of the court!" Li Shigu stretched his neck and almost pressed it on his younger brother's face.

Then the two brothers smiled and were so excited that they hugged each other.

On that day, Li Shigu sat in the military palace and pointed out Cui Gongdu, saying to him: "The twelve prefectures of Ziboqing are all left by the ancestors. Shigu is not talented, and he is in charge of the Lu Jingjie. He shoulders the expectations of everyone and dare not return to the three prefectures of Yihaimi. In addition, my brother Shidao suddenly fell seriously ill and could not get up. Please go to Chang'an Daming Palace and Guest Province to apologize to the court for me."

Cui Gongdu was extremely disappointed and felt as if he was ashamed, but he could only accept the order.

Just as he was about to say goodbye, Li Shigu called him and reminded him: "Wait, the previous sentence I said just now does not count. If you go to the Daming Palace, you will say that Wei Bo will not offer the Prime Minister's Guest Province, so I will not offer the Three States. When will Wei Bo start offering the Prime Minister's Guest? I will offer the Three States."

Cui Gongdu wanted to rush forward and slapped this guy's big mouth...

But Choi didn't know that this was not the most slutty one.

Li Shigu and Li Shidao actually found Linghu Zao and said that you would go to Xuzhou and Yangzhou to win over Zhang Jianfeng and Gao Yue. If these two people can adapt to the current situation, if Zhang is the King of Xia or King of Song, he will choose him, and Gao Yue will undoubtedly be King of Wu.

Linghu Zao was also stunned, but the next thing he did not touch the ground, he also took the order and left.

Half a month later, the prime ministers in the imperial city priest hall were furious, while Cui Gongdu, who came to avenge the crime, was sweating profusely and lying on the ground, not daring to breathe.

"The first thing to say is your family's commander to offer soil is your family's commander, but your family's commander is your family's commander. According to us, there is no need to argue about the Li Shigu Temple. The temple of the Pinglu Li family can be destroyed immediately, but it can be repaired for your brothers to build graves." Du Huangshang coldly threw Li Shigu's statement under his feet.

"Dears and lords atone for your sins, and lords atone for your sins..." Cui Gongdu first begged for mercy, and then said: "I don't want to go back to Ziqing again. I am willing to guide the Pinglu army's geography and reality for the official army."

"Okay, General Cui, you are finally aware of the current affairs, but are you not interested in your wife, children and parents who are hostage in Li Shigu's military mansion?"

"The Li brothers in Pinglu are responsible for disobeying the court and destroying their families and destroying their families. They are the pioneers of the court and have no longer cared about their personal affairs." Cui Gongdu answered decisively.
