MTL - Unparalleled Concubine-Chapter 123 take risks
Chapter 123
Since Li Shen and the Nanshu Li family established the southern border structure, Hanzhou Prefecture is the sphere of influence of the Nanjiang Li family, and Jincheng is the territory of the Pingnanhou House.
In other words, although Cheng Ping nominally broke Hanzhou, but when Li Xin and others left the southern border, Hanzhou's capital city would still return to Li Xing's control.
Even now, when the Pingnan Army is stationed in Hanzhou Prefecture, Li Xing's power has not been damaged in any way, at least he speaks more than Cheng Ping in Hanzhou Prefecture.
Therefore, he had the confidence to say this sentence, even if he discovered it for Cheng Ping, it didn't matter.
This time Nanshu was born, and it was claimed that 50,000 people raised troops. Although no one was in trouble, Li Xing could easily pull 50,000 people out.
Li Shen reported this amount, in a sense, he wanted to give the court a clue and tell the capital how much capital Southern Border had.
In April, it has gradually started to get a little hot.
But at night, it was still very cool. Li Xin, Wang Mo and other inner guards were sitting in the backyard of the big mansion, enjoying the shade while discussing what to do next.
Now, they are all in exactly the same situation. As long as there is one wrong step, these people will all die in the southern border. However, the wisdom shown by Li Xin in the past few times has convinced these warriors from the inner guard. In most cases It was Wang Mo and the others who were listening to Li Xin's speech.
This sixteen-year-old boy became the backbone of this temporary team.
Lieutenant Colonel Li was sitting under the pavilion, facing a few tall and majestic inner guards, without stage fright.
What he was best at in his last life was holding meetings, of course he was very familiar with it.
"Brothers, our trip to the Southern Border is coming to an end."
Li Xin squinted his eyes and said softly: "The next thing we have to think about is how to return to the capital alive."
During this period of time, Li Xin and others could say that they had gained nothing in the southern border, but they had also gained a lot. At least Li Xin now has a clear understanding of the southern border, no longer like before, only a vague concept.
The most intuitive perception of is that here... the imperial court really can't control it.
Up to Li Shen, Cheng Ping, down to the soldiers of the Pingnan Army, everyone didn't pay much attention to these military envoys.
Wang Mo frowned and said in a low voice, "Li Xiaowei, our trip to the southern border will be at the mercy of the people of the Pingnan Army. Don't they allow us to leave?"
The big man's voice was filled with anger: "If they were so lawless, they just killed us with a knife earlier, why bother?"
Li Xin sighed softly.
"They took us all the way. They wanted to give us a step down. If we don't want to follow this step, then there is no way to leave the southern border."
Cheng Ping and others took Li Xin around the Hanzhou Mansion. They really wanted to give each other a step, although the step was very rough, and it didn't give Li Xin and the others face.
Wang Mo lowered his voice: "What does Li Xiaowei mean?"
"Before we leave, Li Shen will probably meet with us."
Li Xin squinted his eyes and said softly: "When the time comes, don't say anything he asks, let me tell."
The young captain's voice was solemn.
"Say the wrong word, and we may not even have this step."
Wang Mo and other inner guards were silent one after another, and after a while, Wang Mo let out a sigh of relief.
"I was originally in charge of guarding Li Xiaowei, so naturally I can't speak."
"But Li Shen may ask you."
Li Xin said softly: "He asked you, don't tell me, do you understand?"
Wang Mo said in a low voice, "I see."
The captain from the guard battalion glanced at Li Xin and said in a low voice, "That big-headed scholar from the censor's desk, do you want to let me know?"
"Need not."
Li Xin said indifferently: "This person is timid, in front of Li Shen, he dare not say anything."
Just as Li Xin was discussing with these inner guards, there was a slight noise not far away. Wang Mo and the others were instantly alert. All of them pressed the handle of the sword and shouted in a low voice: "Who?"
On the courtyard wall of the big mansion, two people who were not tall jumped down. The two slowly walked up to Li Xin, clasped their fists at Li Shen, and said, "Which one is Li Xiaowei?"
Li Xin was originally guarded by Wang Mo and the others. Hearing this, he reached out and gently pushed Wang Mo away, walked to the front, and looked at the two men in blue clothes.
Li Xin hesitated for a while, but finally said, "I'm under Li Xin, who is your Excellency?"
The two did not answer, but said solemnly, "My son asked Li Xiaowei to come over to the manor for a chat."
Wang Mo's long sword was two inches out of its sheath, and sneered in a low voice: "Then see if you have the ability."
The two of them looked at the tall Wang Mo and didn't panic. They just lowered their heads and said, "Li Xiaowei, this time the two of us are here to invite you. It's a matter of courtesy. If the etiquette is not enough, you can only do it first and then soldiers."
Li Xin smiled slightly: "Why, your son has the ability to rob people from the Pingnan Army?"
The two bowed their heads and said, "It may not be possible."
After saying that, one of them clapped his hands lightly, and a fire suddenly lit up outside the courtyard wall of this big house, and the fire was very bright and shadowy. Looking at the battle, there were hundreds of people at least.
Li Xin should still be under the supervision of Cheng Ping. Being able to pull so many people under Cheng Ping's hands shows how powerful these people are.
Li Xin was silent for a moment, and finally looked at the two men.
"Your son's surname is Li?"
"good."
Li Xin asked thoughtfully, "Which Li?"
The taller man sneered: "Of course it's Li from Shu County."
Li Xinxin thought for a moment, and finally nodded slowly: "Okay, I'll go with you."
Wang Mo pulled Li Xin's sleeve and said in a low voice, "Li Xiaowei, if we are here, they will do nothing to you for a while, but if it doesn't work, let's go to the Pingnan Army. It's someone else's flesh!"
Li Xin looked back at Wang Mo, his face was calm: "Brother Wang, Nanjiang and his party are all about survival, don't worry, I know in my heart, if Li Shen doesn't dare to kill us, the remnants of Nanshu will not be able to. Dare."
Having said this, Li Xin paused and continued in a low voice: "And listen to the tone of these two people, most of the Hanzhou capital is their territory, they can ignore Cheng Ping and come to us, and they will not be afraid of the peace in Hanzhou. Southern Army."
In the end, the Pingnan Army actually sent too few people to Hanzhou Prefecture, 20,000 people on the surface, but in fact there may not be 2,000 people.
And Li Xin had an intuition that these people from Nanshu would not kill him.
Although he killed the little highness of Nanshu, 80% of that little highness was killed by someone inside them, and he still had two hostages in his hands...
Although in Li Xin's opinion, the two hostages are mostly unpopular, but with these two cards, he can talk to the people in the southern border.
As long as we can talk, there is a chance.
He was a marketing man in his last life, and what he is best at is playing tricks.
In addition, in the Hanzhou Mansion, even if he didn't want to go, he couldn't help him. Maybe if he resisted, it would only cause Wang Mo and others to lose their lives.
The most important thing is what he said to Wang Mo just now.
If Li Shen didn't dare to kill him, it meant that the Southern Border was still somewhat afraid of the imperial court. In this way, most of these Nanshu remnants did not dare to kill him.
Thinking of this, Li Xin took a few deep breaths and smiled at the two of them.
"Lead the way."
