Chapter 98 Letters from Thousands of Miles Away

Li Xin did not make things difficult for Yuwen Zhao. After the agreement was completed, he personally sent him out of Jizhou City.

He and Zhao Fang stood together on the city tower of Jizhou City, staring at Yuwen Zhao who was riding a horse.

Zhao Fang participated in this negotiation throughout the whole process. He also looked at Yuwen Zhao's back and sighed: "This Yuwen Tianwang is so brave. If it were me, I would never dare to come to Jizhou City."

Marquis Jing'an put his hands in his sleeves and said lightly: "Everyone is the same person, he will be afraid, but his ambition is too great, overwhelming his fear."

"At this time, this king of the northern grassland might be trembling in the battle between the two sides."

Li Xin looked into the distance, looking at Yuwen Zhao who had turned into black dots.

At this time, Yuwen Tianwang, who was riding on the horse, was indeed shaking on both legs, and the expression on his face was a little scared.

"Go faster!"

He whispered to the servant beside him.

The two men were getting farther and farther away, and it was not until after they disappeared from Li Xin's vision that Marquis Jing'an took back his gaze and turned around and said, "Let's go back."

Zhao Fang whispered: "Mr. Marquis, do you really want to fulfill your contract?"

The general of Zhenbei smiled and said, "I have a word "true" in my name, and I have always promised a thousand gold."

Zhao Fang said with some concern: "If the Marquis fulfills his contract, then the tribe of King Yuwen will grow rapidly within a few years. If he integrates the Yuwen tribes together, it will be difficult to do it again."

Li Xin stopped when he heard this, and turned around and looked at Zhao Fang with a smile: "You kid, why are you starting to consider the court now?"

Zhao Fang was born into the Li family of Zhaojun, and the Li family of Zhaojun is still a rebel in the Great Jin court. From this perspective, he should be hostile to the Great Jin court.

The young man smiled shyly.

"Since you are ready to take root in the Great Jin Dynasty, you naturally have to think about it for the court. Otherwise, if you become a high-ranking official in the court in the future, the court will suddenly disappear. Wouldn't the years of hard work be wasted?"

Li Xin reached out and patted his head, and said with a smile: "You kid, you are still a lieutenant, and you are thinking about becoming a high-ranking official."

After saying this, he slowly said: "If Yuwen Zhao fulfilled his contract, the war after the beginning of next spring should be able to defeat Yuwen Futu's tribe. He made an appointment with me to stop, but both of us knew that once the fight started, it would be impossible to stop."

"As long as we fight, the Yuwenfutu tribe will be beaten to death by our tribe, and at least it will be damaged."

Speaking of this, Li Xin narrowed his eyes and smiled and said, "Of course, Yuwen Zhao is not a fool. Once the fight starts, he will probably stop directly and let the Futu tribe fight with our tribe."

"But if he stops, I will stop."

"He and I know very well what will happen then. The key is how to deal with it on the spot and where the two sides will compromise."

Speaking of this, Li Xin took a deep breath: "At that time, it depends on who can calm down in this game between me and him."

There were some relatively profound things in the words of Marquis Jing'an, so profound that Zhao Fang could not understand for a while. After walking dozens of steps behind Li Xin, the young man finally figured out Li Xin's words. He asked, "Marty, what about the one who destroyed the Futu tribe?"

Li Xin kept walking and didn't look back.

"You ask what these military secrets are doing, are you going to the north to surrender to the enemy and become a minister of the Yuwen family?"

Zhao Fang's face turned pale and he shook his head repeatedly.

In fact, as long as the Futu tribe is destroyed, Li Xin's next action will be very simple. At that time, Li Xin will contact the people in Yunzhou City to attack Yuwen Qigui's tribe. If the great achievements are ahead, the Zhong family will not be unwilling to be moved. If the Yuwen Qigui tribe is destroyed, the Yuwen tribes will have gone the second. If they want to make some moves, it will be much simpler.

Of course, the family may not cooperate.

If the Zong family does not cooperate, then Li Xin actually has no choice, but at that time he would probably give up. Anyway, this is the Ji family's business, so he doesn't need to take this mess completely on himself.

Li Xin's mentality was very simple to come to the north this time. He did his best, but he would not force it regardless of whether it succeeded or not. After all, he is now the most powerful minister and his title is almost at the end. Even if he makes great achievements, he will at most turn the marquis into the duke of Old Man Ye. The position cannot be further mentioned, and he will even be afraid of the court.

In fact, if you are a person seeking stability and placed in the position of Li Xin, you will probably take this opportunity to deliberately lose a few battles and then return to the capital to collect crimes, be demoted by the court, and re-employed in a few years. From then on, you will be respectful to the court. This will be a lifetime.

However, Li Xin did not have such idleness and did not bother to do such things.

Zhao Fang followed Mr. Li and returned to the garden in Jizhou City. Mr. Li took him to the backyard and taught him how to stand on boxing stances bit by bit.

While practicing seriously, the young man asked, "Mr. Marquis, I don't think you are the kind of person who often fights with others. Why are you so diligent and have been practicing boxing for so many years?"

Li Xin was standing in a boxing stance, but when he heard this, he turned around and looked at Zhao Fang indifferently.

"You know nothing."

"In the court, the most important thing is not how to fight for power and profit, nor how to make achievements, but..."

"Living for a long time."

Marquis Jing'an slowly breathed and said lightly: "As long as you live for a long time and never die, you will have everything. This set of boxing stakes is an internal martial arts. I have never practiced it for fighting, but for health care."

Li Xin naturally could not tell Zhao Fang the story of Sima Zhongda in another world.

Li Xin was not prepared to be Sima Yi. He wanted to live longer. First, to stay in this world for a few more years, and second, to protect the people around him as much as possible.

Zhao Fang glanced at Li Xin and nodded.

"I see."

After saying that, he stood up with a stern look as Li Xin, and learned to breathe bit by bit according to the method Li Xin taught him.

Although they did not have the status of master-apprentice, they had the reality of master-apprentice. Li Xin did not teach him how to read and read, so he might not be able to teach him these things, but in other aspects, Li Xin taught him step by step.

…………

In a blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed, and it has been November of the eighth year of Taikang.

Because Jimen Pass will not be ready to move troops after the beginning of next spring, Li Xin has been very comfortable in Jizhou City during this period. Except for occasionally going to the Zhenbei Army camp to take a look, he took him in Jizhou City for the rest of the time. He threw all the military affairs of Zhenbei Army to the young master Ye Mao.

Ye Mao and Ye Xun invited him to live in Zhenbei Army Camp more than once, but he refused them both.

At this time, it was a rare opportunity for him to give Ye Mao some experience in commanding the large-scale army. Li Xin did not lack such experience, so he simply let Ye Mao do it.

However, in the evening of that day, a knight in black was brought to Li Xin by Chen Gang and others.

The knight, in ragged clothes, took out a letter tremblingly in front of Li Xin.

"Mr. Marquis, this is a letter from General Mu to you..."

He was extremely tired and knelt on the ground and said softly: "After coming out of Hanzhou City, Hanzhou Prefecture has been attacked by the imperial army. Although the situation in Hanzhou City is not clear, I want to come..."

"It should have been surrounded by the imperial army..."

After saying this, he fell to the ground and fell asleep.

Marquis Jing'an took the letter from him, and when he opened it, his hands were trembling.
