Chapter 72

Pharmacist Li smiled slightly and said, "Exactly."

Chuchen said angrily: "How can you still laugh in such a situation?"

She then changed her mind and smiled: "Could it be that you, the gentleman, already have some considerations?"

Li Yaoshi smiled and said: "Although there are calculations, it is not perfect. Although Li Yuan led his troops to the north, it is for you and me, but there is another layer of heart. How do the Turks know the past between us and Li Yuan?

Seeing Li Yuan's army stationed on the outskirts of Mayi City, I can't help but worry that if we don't agree to make friends, Li Yuan may join forces with us, and Liu Wuzhou will be in danger. Therefore, Li Yuan will not attack you or me until the Turks agree."

Chuchen said: "So, before Liu Wenjing reports back, we still have three days to respond."

Li Yaoshi smiled and said: "Not only can we adapt to the situation, but we can actually adapt to it. Now that Li Yuan has started something, the central government has not yet heard about it. Since Wang Wei and Gao Junya have been killed, as the magistrate of Mayi County, I have the responsibility."

Go to the capital to report the rebellion."

Chuchen was startled and said in shock: "You... you went to the capital to report a rebellion and got close to the central government. Could it be that... could it be that you wanted to imitate Cao Mengde and 'hold the emperor's hand to command the princes'?"

Pharmacist Li shook his head with a smile: "Think about the center, where there are many people with high positions and powerful positions, trying to balance each other. If you talk about 'stealing the emperor', who will it be for me, Pharmacist Li? I just went to Chang'an in the name of suing."

.”

How could Chuchen not know that the central officials were competing for balance, and that it was not Li Yaoshi's turn to take advantage of the emperor? She was originally worried that her husband would take risks and make impetuous advances.

Hearing this, his cheeks turned slightly red, he lowered his head and said, "It's just that I'm too worried."

How could Master Li not understand his beloved wife’s thoughts? He held Chuchen Su’s hand and said affectionately: “The hearts of you and me can be learned from heaven!”

At this time, Chuchen had calmed down and said, "There are still many old people from the Yang family in Xijing, and the fourth master is in Kunming Pool again. Could it be..." She has called Yang Xuanqing "the fourth master" since she was a child.

Li Yaoshi said: "That's right. Also, in the chess game played in the clean room of Xu Taoist Chang Yuntang in Taihua Xiyue, I added a sunspot on the northwest 69th road."

Chuchen said happily: "Yes! That sunspot is Chang'an! When the Chu and Han Dynasties were fighting, Pei Gong entered the Pass first and became king, and Xiang Yu entered the Pass later and perished. It's very interesting to go to Chang'an! Think of Xijing, now

Just relying on Wei Wen to be promoted is not enough."

There was tea but no wine in front of her, so she offered tea instead of wine and said to her husband: "Now I will give you a bowl of thin tea to wish you success soon."

Pharmacist Li drank tea, but his expression turned solemn: "I went to Chang'an to report my resignation, and it was inconvenient to bring my family with me. However, after I left, Li Yuan was still here."

Chuchen smiled and said: "You don't need to worry about this matter. Leave the family matters to me! I will take the child to Kunming Pool first, and then meet you in Chang'an."

At that time, Li Dejiang was just an infant, and Li Derjian was only four years old.

In this world of war and chaos, what a difficult task it is to hide and hide with two young children? Chuchen just said lightly, "Leave it to me"!

Pharmacist Li was grateful and held his beloved wife's hands tightly: "It's settled."

Chuchen said: "From here we go south to Taiyuan and west to Tongguan. The journey is not easy."

Knowing that his beloved wife was concerned, Li Yaoshi told her his plan: "From here, we will go south to Taiyuan, which is still within Li Yuan's power, so we will naturally hide and go. Then we will go from Taiyuan to Tongguan, enter Chang'an, and go all the way."

The world is still under the Sui family. I, the prime minister and supervisor of Mayi County, am responsible, but I let the captain kill the prefect, which is a crime of dereliction of duty. Now I am just treated as an imperial prisoner, put into a prison car and driven to Xijing, and cleared all the way.

Who dares to delay for fear of delay?"

Chuchen clapped his hands and said, "What a plan! As long as we enter Chang'an and see Wei Wensheng, everything will be safe."

Now he and his wife discussed it in detail and went their separate ways.

In the evening, Pharmacist Li ordered Yu Hai and Ji Xingbo, two of his cronies, to leave the city with their wives and children.

As soon as they arrived at the outskirts of the city, Chuchen quietly sneaked back to Mayi with his two young sons, while Li Yaoshi, Yu Hai and Ji Xingbo headed south.

Before Liu Wenjing could turn back, the three of them had already passed through Taiyuan.

Li Yuan waited for several days on the outskirts of Mayi City. Liu Wenjing finally returned and brought news of the Turkic promise.

Li Yuan immediately entered the city to capture Pharmacist Li, but he didn't expect that Pharmacist Li had already run away with his family.

Li Yuan only thought that his wife was bound by their young son and could not move quickly, so he quickly sent troops to search everywhere.

Unfortunately, he has already made an appointment with the Turks, and Ma Yi belongs to Liu Wuzhou.

Liu Wuzhou was afraid that Li Yuan would occupy Mayi, so he couldn't wait to lead his troops.

Li Yuan had no choice but to withdraw from Mayi and return to Taiyuan.

After Li Yuan retreated and Liu Wuzhou entered the city, he had nothing to fear after leaving the dust.

Cong Rongrong took the two children by the mountain road and bypassed Taiyuan, headed for Kunming Pool, and entrusted his beloved son to Li Yaowang.

When Li Yuan came to Mayi from the north of Taiyuan, he knew that Li Shimin admired Li Yaoshi, so in order to prevent him from getting in the way, he did not let him accompany him and only ordered him to stay in Taiyuan.

If Li Shimin comes this time, Li Yaoshi and Chuchen may not be able to escape smoothly.

Li Yaoshi, Yu Hai and Ji Xingbo traveled through Taiyuan and came to Huoyi, where they informed the prefect of Huoyi about Li Yuan's rebellion.

He also said that he wanted to go to Jiangdu to report his rebellion, so he borrowed a prison car and sat in the car. Because Ji and the others escorted him south.

As soon as the governor of Huoyi knew that there was a change in Taiyuan, he immediately prepared for it.

Li Yuan found out that Pharmacist Li had passed through Huoyi, so he locked himself into the prison car and headed for Jiangdu.

Huoyi was already prepared, and Li Yuan was unable to go south for a while. He was worried when Li Mi's message announcing an uprising to the world happened to come from outside.

After Li Mi was defeated and captured by Yang Xuangan, and escaped from Yu Wenshu's hands during the escort, he traveled to Weicheng and defected to Zhai Rang of the Wagang Army.

First, he set up an ambush at Dahai Temple in Xingyang and killed the Sui general Zhang Xutuo, which greatly boosted his reputation. He also captured Xingluo Cang and opened it to provide relief for the hungry, which made him happy even from near and far away.

Zhai Rang saw Li Mi's military skills and his knowledge was far beyond his own, so he elected Li Mi as the leader of the army.

Li Mi then called himself Duke of Wei and led the Wagang rebel army to besiege Luoyang, the eastern capital.

When Yang Xuangan wanted to besiege the eastern capital, Li Mi tried to dissuade him.

Yang Xuangan refused to listen and eventually perished.

At this time, Li Mi wanted to besiege Luoyang, and his general Xu Shiji also analyzed the situation and believed that the eastern capital was difficult to attack and the western capital was easy to attack, so he asked Li Mi to take Chang'an first.

However, Li Mi believed that most of Wagang's disciples came from Jiaodong, and Luoyang must be captured first to reassure the people, otherwise who would be willing to expedition to Chang'an? Li Mi did not listen to Xu Shiji's advice, and eventually perished.

Is this true of the saying that "people who are good at planning for others are ignorant of looking for themselves"? In fact, bystanders know better, but the authorities are confused.

Li Mi besieged Dongdu, and the Sui Dynasty sent Wang Shichong, the general defender of Jiangdu, to rescue him.

While Li Mi was fighting with Wang Shichong, he also spread the word to the world, enumerating the ten major crimes of the ignorant king, saying that he "exhausts the bamboos in the Nanshan Mountains, but there is no end to his crimes; he has conquered the waves of the East China Sea, and it is difficult to end his evil deeds."
