Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

After hearing Ren Yuan's words, Lee Geun-suk felt a strange feeling welling up inside him.

That feeling told him that what the King of Liang said was all true!

Why should Li Ziqian and his lineage become the leaders of the Renzhou Li family? Why can't the Li family of Renzhou become the Li family of Li Genshuo?

"Little Li, I have high hopes for you. I like ambitious branch disciples like you. Oh no, from now on you will be the main branch of the Li family in Renzhou."

“Little Li, think about how Li Ziqian and his son treated you before. They only gave you a minor official position in Jinzhou City. The two of them, one is the prime minister of Goryeo, and the other is the governor of Dongjing.”

"In Jinzhou, you not only work yourself to the bone, but you're also constantly controlled by others, while they live a life of luxury! Why? Just because they're from the main branch?"

Ren Yuan looked at the crazy expression on Li Genshuo's face and expressed his satisfaction.

"Xiao Li, do you think this is fair? What's the difference between the Li family father and son and Wang Yu? They're all incompetent and foolish!"

"King Liang is right! Why should our branch be exploited? Why should they live a life of luxury?"

Lee Geun-seok erupted. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Ren Yuan made sense. He had previously been thinking about whether he could make a contribution and then get a reward from his family.

But now, to hell with the reward! Why can't he become the head of the family!

"That's right! Little Li, come here and tell me! What is your dream?"

Ren Yuan was very satisfied. Koreans are so naive and easy to fool!

"Your Highness, what is a dream?"

"Oh, so what do you want to do in the future?"

"Your Highness! I... I wish to become the head of the Li family in Renzhou!"

Looking at the expectant expression in Ren Yuan's eyes, Lee Geun-seok gritted his teeth, hardened his heart, and said those words that were extremely disrespectful from the perspective of the family!

"Hahaha! Good! That's ambitious! I like it!"

"A true man is born between heaven and earth; how can he remain subservient to others for long! Little Li! I support you!"

Ren Yuan laughed heartily, "It's done! This is exactly the effect I wanted!"

"Thank you, Prince Liang! Thank you, Prince Liang! Your Highness is willing to help me?"

Seeing Ren Yuan's reaction, Li Genshuo immediately understood that this Prince Liang wanted to treat him as a trusted confidant!

"Of course! I have a hobby: helping others realize their dreams. You want to become the head of the Lee family in Inju, Goryeo, and I will help you!"

Ren Yuan said firmly.

"Thank you, King Liang! Thank you, King Liang! From now on, King Liang will be my second father!"

Lee Geun-seok was overjoyed and immediately knelt down and kowtowed to the Prince of Liang!

"No need for kowtowing, Little Li. I'll help you, so wouldn't you..."

"Rest assured, Your Majesty! From this day forward, I, Li Genshuo, am Your Majesty's man in life and in death! I will go through fire and water for Your Majesty without hesitation!"

Lee Geun-seok swore to Im Won that he was now nothing in the Lee family of Inju.

But with the help of this King Liang, everything will be much easier!

Lee Geun-suk only needs to have power within the Lee family; as for the title of King of Goryeo, let whoever wants it be! He certainly won't!

"Alright, go. I'll tell you what to do from now on, but remember this: I can make you the head of the Li family in Renzhou, and I can also make you step down from that position. So if you dare to have any disloyal thoughts..."

"Then let me die pierced by a thousand arrows!"

Lee Geun-suk quickly assured Im Won that his loyalty was absolute!

"Brother, are you trying to fool us again?"

After Lee Geun-seok left, Heo Guan-chung appeared from behind, looking in the direction Lee Geun-seok had gone, and joked with Im Won.

"Guanzhong, you can't say things like that. I'm just helping a young man with a dream."

Ren Yuan waved his hand, indicating that he was very serious.

"Brother, did Grandpa teach you to be so shameless?"

Seeing Ren Yuan's serious-sounding nonsense, Xu Guanzhong could only laugh and tease him back.

"Guanzhong, about this issue, why don't you ask him about it when you get back?"

"Never mind, but brother, this Lee Geun-seok is indeed a bit weak. How can you ensure that he can become the leader of the Lee family in Inju?"

"Hmm... let's see how Li Ziqian and Wang Yu play their game. Those two old foxes will end up hurting themselves, and Li Genshuo might just be able to pick up the pieces."

Ren Yuan also looked in the direction where Li Genshuo had left, still secretly plotting in his mind.

"What if he fails?"

"Failed? It's alright. The Li family of Renzhou has no shortage of people with the surname Li. If he fails, we can just find another one."

Ren Yuan said, "Little Li, I can give you this immense wealth, but whether you can accept it or not is none of my business."

……

Gaegyeong, the royal study of King Yu.

"Prime Minister, I heard you suddenly fell ill last night. How are you now?"

Wang Yu sat in his seat reading memorials, while Li Ziqian sat in a chair to the left, leisurely sipping tea.

"It's nothing, just a minor illness. Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."

Li Ziqian bowed slightly in return for Wang Yu's greeting.

"Prime Minister, you still haven't told me what exactly happened in Tokyo and Jeolla Province."

After Li Ziqian arrived at his study today, he remained silent in a corner, which surprised Wang Yu.

In his opinion, this was not Li Ziqian's style.

"Your Majesty, everything is fine in Dongjing City. The people are living in peace and prosperity. The old ministers of Jeolla Province have no specific news either, but it seems nothing has happened there..."

"Is that so? Prime Minister, you're becoming more and more dishonest these days!"

Wang Yu tossed several memorials to Yi Ja-gyeom. Yi Ja-gyeom opened them and read that they contained information about a large number of enemies suddenly appearing in Jeolla Province.

"Prime Minister, do these memorials look familiar? These were all sent before you fell ill, but you kept them all. Why did you conceal this?"

Wang Yu asked.

"They are familiar; indeed, they are all documents that this old minister has seen."

Li Ziqian first stated that he had not been lazy and that he had indeed read all the memorials.

"However, Your Majesty, at the time I thought that these people were talking nonsense. Our Goryeo is so powerful, and Jeolla Province has two large armies. Who would dare to come here and provoke us?"

"Therefore, I suspected these reports were false, so I kept them for myself. This is my duty to help Your Majesty."

Li Ziqian's words made a good point, and Wang Yu was unable to refute them for a moment.

"So what about this? You went to Tokyo the night before last, what happened there?"

"Why have scouts discovered such a large army in Gyeongsang Province? Who are they? Prime Minister, can you tell me?"

Wang Yu continued to ask.

"Your Majesty, there is no army. This is all just your imagination."

Li Ziqian looked up and spoke to Wang Yu in a very calm tone.

"I'm just imagining things? Does the Prime Minister mean I'm confused?"

"Your Majesty is busy with countless affairs of state, and it's inevitable that you'll be physically and mentally exhausted. It's normal for you to have sudden delusions at times..."

"boom!"

Before Li Ziqian could finish speaking, he saw Wang Yu slam his hand on the table! Then he pointed at Li Ziqian's nose and started cursing!

"Li Ziqian! How dare you! Do you really think that just because you're a member of the Li family from Renzhou, you can act with impunity?"

"I'm telling you! I am the true king of Goryeo!"

"I am the ruler! You are the subject!"

"Do you even respect me now? This is treason!"

Li Ziqian remained unmoved in the face of Wang Yu's accusations.

"Your Majesty? What kind of Your Majesty?"

Lord Liang said, "That chair you're sitting on will soon be mine..."
