The attempt to use the blunt sword of the Suppressing Song Army to deal with Lin Hongfei failed, and the anger in Li Yanqing's heart was not to mention how strong it was.

Ever since he, a bathhouse worker, climbed up the tree of Marshal Cao and took over direct financial power, he has been respected by everyone wherever he goes.

But last time Lin Hongfei put a gun to his head and severely damaged Li Yanqing's face. When had Li Yanqing ever suffered such a big loss?

"no!"

"This is not over yet!"

Li Yanqing quickly calmed down, and after getting dressed, he got in the car and went all the way to Marshal Cao's residence in the capital.

It was already getting late at this time, and logically speaking, Marshal Cao would go to bed soon. If there was nothing important, no one would dare to disturb Marshal Cao.

But Li Yanqing is different from others. The reason why he was favored by Marshal Cao as a bather is because of his exquisite foot-pinching skills.

Unless there are special circumstances, Li Yanqing has to wait for Marshal Cao to go to bed every night. If there is no day when Li Yanqing doesn't wash his feet and beat his legs, Marshal Cao can't even sleep well.

Arriving at Marshal Cao's residence, Li Yanqing entered the bedroom with ease. At this time, Cao Kun, the direct leader, was sitting on the Grand Master's chair, holding a book in his hand and reading it carefully.

"Third Master, I'll help you rest!" Li Yanqing said with a smile on his face.

Cao Kun didn't say anything, just nodded slightly, his eyes still staying on the book in his hand.

Li Yanqing asked a servant to bring a basin of foot washing water soaked in herbs, and then quickly took off Cao Kun's shoes and socks. He held Cao Kun's feet with both hands and slowly put them into the hot foot washing water.

.

Then, under Li Yanqing's skillful craftsmanship, Cao Kun sighed slightly, with a relaxed look on his face.

When the two servants next to them saw this, they couldn't help but sigh. No wonder Mr. Li Liu could rise from a stinking bather to the sky. With his ability to serve others, if this was done in the Qing Dynasty, Mr. Li Liu might not be able to do it.

It’s the second Ande Hai, Li Lianying!

While Li Yanqing was washing Cao Kun's feet, he was talking some gossip. Cao Kun also responded indifferently. As they chatted, Li Yanqing brought the topic to the change of ownership of Shaanxi Province.

"Third Master, I heard that Shaanxi Province was occupied by Lin Hongfei, and the original governor Liu Zhenhua was driven to Yu Province!" Li Yanqing said while slightly raising his eyelids and looking at Cao Kun's face.

When Cao Kun heard this, he frowned slightly and said calmly: "Well, there is such a thing."

Based on Li Yanqing's understanding of Marshal Cao, his expression was a sign of unhappiness. Li Yanqing felt happy. It seemed that Marshal Cao was also somewhat dissatisfied with Lin Hongfei's behavior!

So, Li Yanqing quickly added to his jealousy: "This Lin Hongfei is really outrageous, but Liu Zhenhua has defected to our direct line a long time ago. Isn't this a joke of our own people beating our own people and making outsiders laugh?"

"Liu Zhenhua is the governor, and Shaanxi Province is his territory, but Lin Hongfei directly led his troops to Hanzhong, and now he has driven Liu Zhenhua out of Shaanxi Province and occupied the territory of Shaanxi Province himself!"

"Moreover, he didn't inform you, Third Master, of such a big thing. This is simply lawless. He clearly doesn't take you seriously, Third Master!"

"In my opinion, Third Master, you should punish him well, demote his official position, and let him have a long memory..."

Li Yanqing became more and more energetic as he spoke, and did not notice that Cao Kun's face became more and more ugly. With a bang, Cao Kun kicked the footbath over and splashed the footbath all over Li Yanqing.

"Third Master..."

Li Yanqing was stunned, with a look of horror on his face. He didn't expect that Cao Kun, who had been kind to him in the past, would suddenly lose his temper with him tonight.

At this time, Cao Kun looked angry, pointed at Li Yanqing and cursed: "Who are you? You can talk a lot about important matters like whether to punish the governor of a province or not. You have the right to talk about this kind of thing!"

Although Cao Kun favored Li Yanqing and allowed him to take direct financial power, Cao Kun was still very clear-headed about certain matters and he would not let Li Yanqing get involved.

Just like what happened tonight, Cao Kun knew very well why Li Yanqing incited him to deal with Lin Hongfei. It was just that the two had a conflict last time and Li Yanqing wanted to come back for revenge.

"I have made my own decision on Lin Hongfei's matters. It's not your turn to express your opinion yet. A pinch on your feet is better than anything else!"

"Also, do you think no one knows about the military expenses you secretly sent to the Zhensong Army?"

"Do you think everyone else is blind?"

"If you hadn't served me with all your heart and soul these years, I would have turned you into a military law officer long ago!"

Cao Kun's harsh words frightened Li Yanqing out of his wits, and he kept kowtowing to admit his mistake, for fear of losing Cao Kun's favor and protection.

However, Li Yanqing still didn't understand why Marshal Cao didn't deal with Lin Hongfei?

Although Li Yanqing is now in a high position, his vision has not improved much. He thinks that with Cao Kun as a big tree, he can pretend to be powerful.

But the problem is that tigers are also afraid of some things and will not touch them easily.

Therefore, Li Yanqing, who did not understand this principle, tried hard but could not achieve what he wanted.

Not only that, Li Yanqing was scolded by Cao Kun and then kicked out of Cao's house.

Li Yanqing, who had hit a big nail, was filled with anger and had no place to vent his grievances. He could only summon two concubines to vent his anger on the bed, causing an exquisite red sandalwood bed to creak.

It rang for most of the night.

However, although Cao Kun refuted Li Yanqing's idea, deep down he was still quite dissatisfied with Lin Hongfei's private capture of Shaanxi Province and the expulsion of Liu Zhenhua.

Although Cao Kun has always been famous for his generosity and tolerance, he is a powerful man after all. How can he be offended by others at will?

Lin Hongfei took action against one of his own people without asking for permission. Is this clearly the following crime?

And more importantly, Lin Hongfei had Wu Ziyu as his backer, even though Cao Kun and Wu Ziyu had a close relationship before and worked closely together.

But after Wu Ziyu won the Zhili-Fengtian war, his reputation within the Zhili clique tended to overshadow his own, which Cao Kun could not accept.

And Lin Hongfei is Wu Ziyu's confidant. Now Wu Ziyu occupies the two lakes area. If Lin Hongfei occupies the two provinces of Shaanxi and Ling, then Wu Ziyu's sphere of influence directly spans four provinces!

Therefore, Cao Kun must not allow Lin Hongfei to annex Shaanxi Province. Not only that, he must also find ways to control the territory of Shaanxi Province in his own hands!
