    "Your Highness, there is a man named Li Shifu who is asking for an audience outside the mansion." Zong Ning, the new housekeeper of Wang Chen's mansion, stood outside Wang Chen's study and said to the room very respectfully: "Are you going to see him or not?" This paragraph  Time Wang Chen is very busy and rarely goes home to rest during the day.  It was a rare occasion for me to come back today, so I said I would go back to the study to take a rest, and I would go to Li Gang's house later, so I asked the servant not to disturb me if there was nothing special to do.  But within a short while, someone outside the house asked to see Wang Chen.  Originally, the servants were not prepared to pass the news, but the identity of the person who came to see him was unusual. In the end, the housekeeper Zong Ning went to report to Wang Chen in person.  Wang Chen actually did not rest, but stayed in the study, studying and analyzing the current situation of Xixia and Jin Kingdom sent from various channels.  Know yourself and the enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger. Wang Chen agrees very much with this classic saying.  There are currently a large number of spies sent to these two countries, and intelligence reports continue to be sent through various channels.  Through these channels, Wang Chen had a general understanding of the situation in the two countries.  The war is not ongoing yet. Observing the situation of the two countries requires a dynamic process to further understand the national conditions of the two countries, judge their national and military strength, and make adequate responses after the war occurs. Wang Chen attaches great importance to  Intelligence work in Xixia and Jin.  He is almost in charge of the affairs of the Intelligence Department of the Ministry of War personally, and the chief officer of the Intelligence Department is almost directly responsible to him.  After he roughly analyzed the newly received information, before he classified it and checked it on the map, he heard the housekeeper Zong Ning reporting the matter outside, saying that someone asked for a meeting.  At this point, he felt angry. He had just told him not to disturb him unless there was anything particularly important.  What a big deal it is for a person to visit. There are countless people who come to visit him every day, but he rarely receives them.  I was about to get angry.  But considering that Zong Ning has been the housekeeper for a while, he must know the priorities of things. He is not a very special person. He should not come to report and just send him away.  He swallowed back the scolding he almost spat out, and asked in a muffled voice: "Who is this Li Shifu?" "He came from Shaanxi, with a letter from the Sichuan-Shaanxi Liu resettlement envoy. So I didn't dare to repel him, or did I  Let His Highness make the decision!" Zong Ning was careful when speaking, fearing that Wang Chen would scold him.  Hearing that it was Liu Ziyu who recommended the person, Wang Chen thought for a moment and immediately ordered: "Zong Ning, let him come in!" "Yes. Your Majesty," Zong Ning breathed a sigh of relief and quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead.  , ready to bring people in.  "Bring him to my study!" Wang Chen ordered again.  "Yes, Your Majesty!" Zong Ning responded again and strode away immediately.  Wang Chen immediately collected all the maps and intelligence materials and put them in the cabinet.  It was just when he was getting ready.  There were footsteps outside, and then Zong Ning's voice sounded again, "Your Highness, the younger one has brought Li Shifu here." "Let him come in!" Wang Chen said, walked to the case and sat down.  The door creaked open, and Zong Ning led a tall young man in.  "Li Shifu, a humble official, has met His Royal Highness Prince Fu!" The young man, who was about 1.90 meters tall, walked into the house and glanced at Wang Chen secretly.  Immediately come forward and salute.  Wang Chen was surprised when he saw that it was a very young and tall man who came to see him, holding a letter from Liu Ziyu.  "No courtesy!" Wang Chen motioned to Li Shifu to get up.  Li Shifu agreed, straightened up and stared straight ahead, waiting for Wang Chen to ask questions.  "Li Shifu, you come to see me. What's the matter?" Wang Chen asked in a calm voice without any emotion.  This voice made Li Shifu a little nervous, and he quickly saluted and replied: "Your Highness, I hold a humble position in the Shaanxi Army. I was appreciated by Liu's pacifying envoy and recommended by him. I came to the capital to find His Royal Highness King Fu, hoping to be in the Imperial Guards in front of the palace."  Take office." Li Shifu said, took out a letter from his arms and presented it to Wang Chen.  Zong Ning quickly stepped forward, took the letter from Li Shifu, and handed it to Wang Chen.  Wang Chen reached out and took the letter from Zong Ning, and read it slowly.  This was an autographed letter from Liu Ziyu, the Sichuan-Shaanxi pacifier. Wang Chen naturally thought that the young man in front of him, who was taller than him, was not a simple person.  As expected, Wang Chen was a little surprised by what Liu Ziyu said in the letter.  Li Shifu is a descendant of the Tang Dynasty clan and a native of Qingjian, Suide Army. He is probably from the Chang'an area of ??Shaanxi Province. The Li family has inherited the nine Suwei clans since the Tang Dynasty and has a history of patrolling the capital.  Li Shifu's father is Li Yongqi, who now also serves in the Sichuan-Shaanxi Army.  Li Shifu is twenty-six years old this year. He has been fighting on the battlefield with his father since he was seventeen years old.  In the first year of Jingkang, Jin soldiers invaded Yanyan??, Li Xianzhong took the initiative to ask his father Li Yongqi to go to spy on the intelligence. He killed seventeen Jin soldiers sleeping in a cave alone at night. He was appreciated by Wang Shu, the governor's comfort envoy, and he was appointed as a general in the army.  Become famous.  Later he was transferred to Wu Yilang and served as deputy general.  He performed well in the following battles. Liu Ziyu felt pity for his talent and hoped that Li Shifu would do greater things, so he recommended him to Kaifeng to find Wang Chen, hoping to be added to the Imperial Guards in front of the palace.  After reading this letter from Liu Ziyu, Wang Chen already roughly understood what was going on.  Li Shifu must have performed very well, and both Wang Shu and Liu Ziyu admired him very much. In the end, Liu Ziyu was brave enough to write a letter to recommend him personally to His Highness Prince Fu, hoping that this person named Li Shifu would have greater success under him.  as.  Wang Chen became interested for a while, looked at Li Shifu and asked: "Li Shifu, since you have been personally recommended by Ambassador Liu Anping, I believe your abilities are also very good. I am willing to place you in the Imperial Guards in front of the palace, but I don't know that you  What are your plans? " "Lead the army, go into battle to kill the enemy, and serve the country!" Li Shifu said very simply and directly.  "Aren't you just as capable of killing enemies in Shaanxi?" Wang Chen was a little confused.  "Being able to work for His Highness King Fu will give me more opportunities to make meritorious deeds. I believe His Highness King Fu will not be disappointed in me!" Li Shifu said very arrogantly and confidently.  The arrogance and confidence shown by the other party made Wang Chen feel more favorable towards him, and he immediately said: "It's good that you have such confidence. I just hope that you can not just talk about it, but prove it with your military exploits!" "  This humble position will definitely make His Highness's wish come true!" Li Shifu didn't know how to describe his joy when he heard that Wang Chen accepted Liu Ziyu's recommendation.  Li Shifu knew that Wang Chen and Liu Ziyu had never met, and they had no contact, but Liu Ziyu was willing to write a handwritten letter to Wang Chen to recommend him, and said that Wang Chen would definitely not do it after seeing the letter he wrote.  If he is indifferent, he will definitely be put to good use.  Looking at today's situation, what Liu Ziyu said was indeed true. How could he not be happy about this?  After coming all the way to Kaifeng, if Wang Chen is not bad, he will definitely be deeply affected. In the end, he will have to return to Xi'an, and his future will be further bleak.  Wang Chen stared at Li Shifu for a few more times, and then said: "The fact that you can kill seventeen Jin soldiers with one person's strength shows that your personal ability is very outstanding. Today, the king also wants to see your skills."  "His Royal Highness Prince Fu is outstanding in skill, but I dare not show my embarrassment in front of His Highness despite my humble position!" Although Li Shifu was very confident in his skills, Wang Chen bravely rescued the young emperor Zhao Chen from the Jinren camp, as well as Emperor Roufu and Hui Fu.  The story of Emperor Ji setting off another fire and burning the golden man to a state of embarrassment has long been passed down as a myth. Although Li Shifu felt that it was exaggerated, he fully believed that Wang Chen's skills were very good.  Today Wang Chen wants to see his skills. How can this not make him nervous?  "Then let's have a good fight. Let me try your skills!" Wang Chen could not forget the story of Li Shifu killing seventeen golden men in one night. He became more and more interested in this tall man of similar age to him.  .  If what he said in the letter was true, then this guy was born to be a special forces soldier.  Those seventeen people were the Jin Army who had experienced battles for a long time, not seventeen pigs without resistance.  It is very difficult for a strictly trained special forces soldier to attack and kill seventeen sleeping enemies.  No matter how careful you are, there will always be movement and noise.  Some people even become nervous after killing a few people. They kill seventeen people in a row and still retreat calmly. This person's killing ability and state of mind are not comparable to ordinary people.  Seeing the calm manner Li Shifu showed in front of him, Wang Chen further recognized this young man.  In fact, Wang Chen still underestimated Li Shifu. If he called Li Shifu by another name, I believe Wang Chen would have a better impression of him. I also believe that many people who are familiar with the history of the Song Dynasty would have special feelings for this person named Li Shifu.  In another historical time and space, Li Shifu had a famous name¡ª¡ªLi Xianzhong.  Li Xianzhong has many records in the history of the Song Dynasty. He was a famous general who fought against the Jin Dynasty. His life experience was quite bizarre. He once surrendered the Jin Dynasty and later returned to Xixia. However, he was in Cao's camp and his heart was in the Han Dynasty. He was determined to return south and became the main general in the Southern Song Dynasty to fight against the Jin Dynasty.  , led the army to the Northern Expedition several times and achieved outstanding military exploits.  It is true that strange people have strange bones.  Hearing what Wang Chen said, Li Shifu did not refuse anymore and followed Wang Chen to the yard.  Wang Chen was not polite and directly attacked. Li Shifu was shocked and quickly dodged. Miraculously, he actually dodged Wang Chen's blow that he felt was bound to hit.  This made Wang Chen very surprised, and he struck again. This time the kick hit Li Shifu, but most of the force was avoided by him, which did not cause much damage, and he reluctantly fought back.    This surprised Wang Chen even more. He didn't expect that this low-level officer named Li Shifu was so capable. He was able to fight back after being kicked by him.  At that moment, he no longer had any scruples and began to attack with all his strength. Li Shifu also dodged very quickly and looked for opportunities to counterattack. It was not until Wang Chen made more than ten moves in a row that he was hit hard by Wang Chen.  Wang Chen also stopped and laughed at Li Shifu: "You are very capable. You can temporarily go to the Imperial Guard in front of the palace. After you become familiar with the military affairs here, I will arrange for you to go to another place." "  Thank you, Your Highness!" Li Shifu was naturally overjoyed. He knew that Wang Chen had looked at him differently.
