Of course, Li Yuanqing understood Chen Zhong's concern. He handed Chen Zhong a cigar with a smile and said with a smile: "Brother, I am at least 70-80% sure about this matter. You don't have to worry too much. By the way, how did you get along with Lao Zhang?"

Did Lao Chen get together?"

Although Li Yuanqing, Zhang Pan and Chen Liangce can be regarded as brothers, to a certain extent, they can also be regarded as brothers in life and death.

However, Zhang Pan and Chen Liangce are obviously far from being able to compare with the relationship between Chen Zhong and Li Yuanqing.

To put it bluntly, it is no wonder that Zhang Pan and Chen Liangce have always followed Li Yuanqing, because Li Yuanqing can bring them actual benefits, and they need to take advantage of Li Yuanqing's momentum.

The reason why Li Yuanqing supported them and helped them was also because of their strength.

Everyone relies on each other and makes money together.

In essence, interests are still involved and guided.

But~, Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong are completely different. They are already flesh and blood, connected with each other's muscles and bones.

Even if Li Yuanqing is defeated like a mountain and has only one brother left by his side, then~~ this person must be Chen Zhong.

This kind of brotherhood that has long melted into the bone marrow can no longer be explained with pale words.

This is the connection between muscles, bones and flesh among countless blood and fire!

At this time, when he heard Li Yuanqing ask about this matter, Chen Zhong hurriedly said: "Yuanqing, Zhang Pan also said this before. He had already made preparations on Guanglu Island. As soon as I came back, his people

I got the news and came directly to me. I thought about it and realized that the situation was critical at this time, so I told Zhang Pan's soldiers. He hurried back to Hongzui Fort. Within a few days, Zhang Pan and Chen Liangce

Come over together. Yuan Qing, this matter is my fault. I failed to keep the matter a secret, so now you have exposed this killer weapon in advance."

Chen Zhong said, hanging his head with some annoyance.

Although he, Zhang Pan and Chen Liangce could be considered brothers, Chen Zhong was very aware of the situation at this time. Even if he was not careful, it would probably bring disastrous consequences.

If~, if something like this happens and drags down Li Yuanqing and drags down the brothers, then Chen Zhong will really die without redemption.

Li Yuanqing smiled, took a candle, smiled and helped Chen Zhong light the cigar, then lit his own, and said with a smile: "Brother, it doesn't matter for now. My layout in western Liaoning is just a brief outline. They

I don’t know the details, let alone the chess pieces, so there shouldn’t be any big problems in a short period of time. Besides, brother, I’m not in a hurry to use these chess pieces in Liaoxi at this time.”

Chen Zhong was stunned for a moment. The smoke he had just smoked halfway hit his throat and he couldn't help but cough.

Li Yuanqing helped him pat his back and said with a smile: "Brother, don't worry. Some things may seem big, but in fact, they are just trivial matters. We must try our best to maintain a good attitude."

After a long time, Chen Zhong came back to his senses. He couldn't help wiping away his tears and said: "Yuan Qing, you, you are trying to scare my brother to death. How many evil intentions are there in your mind?"

Son."

Li Yuanqing smiled: "Brother, although this matter can be used in emergencies, it should not be exposed easily unless it is absolutely necessary. Just a few days ago, I gave the emperor a discount. It will be temporarily changed for two or three months. The problem should not be solved.

Big. We still have to come up with a more secure way to deal with it."

Chen Zhong also understood what Li Yuanqing meant, "Yuanqing, if you are prepared, you will be safe. If you are prepared, you will be safe. I also want to understand now. You must not be anxious about this matter! The more anxious you are, the more counterproductive it will be!"

Li Yuanqing nodded, took a deep breath of the cigar, and puffed out smoke from his mouth and nose at the same time, but said: "Brother, my little arm can't twist my thigh. The emperor's suspicion of me is really not ordinary.

.If this situation continues to develop..."

Li Yuanqing paused for a moment, "Brother, I estimate that there are eight to nine cases out of ten that I will leave Liaodi and take shelter for a while."

Chen Zhong couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

After a moment, he said: "Yuan Qing, tell the truth. At this time, it is the best choice for you to take a step back and for me to take a step back. But, if this is the case, our foundation in Liaonan..."

Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "Brother, this is what makes it difficult to make a choice. If we just give up like this, who will be willing to give up all our years of hard work?"

Chen Zhong pondered for a long time, looked seriously into Li Yuanqing's eyes and said: "Yuan Qing, no matter what choice you make, brother, I will always be on your side!"

His tone was so firm that there was no room for doubt.

Li Yuanqing smiled and patted Chen Zhong's shoulder heavily: "Brother, this matter~ is not as bad as we thought. Let's delay it for a while and see the situation before making any calculations. You should have a good rest today. Tomorrow

Let’s talk slowly and carefully the day after tomorrow.”

…………

After leaving the Nanxinkou military camp, it was almost ten o'clock. Li Yuanqing hurriedly rode back to the official hall without taking a carriage.

In the afternoon, Li Yuanqing sent someone to notify Qi Xiaorong and Qi San in advance that after handling this matter, he would definitely be present at the banquet in the house tonight.

Just like driving late at night in later generations, at this time, riding a horse at night was a very dangerous move, especially after drinking too much.

However, although Li Yuanqing rushed back in a hurry, his speed was not very fast. It took him nearly an hour to reach less than ten miles.

When we returned to the house, it was almost midnight.

Although Qi Xiaorong was hosting a banquet for her godfather Qi San in the mansion, the back house of the mansion was Li Yuanqing's private property, so it was obviously not possible.

The place where Qi Xiaorong hosted Qi San this time was in the guest room in the front yard of the official hall.

When Li Yuanqing rushed here, the dishes on the table were already neatly arranged, and there was no sign that chopsticks had been touched.

Seeing Li Yuanqing coming, Qi San quickly saluted Li Yuanqing respectfully.

He never dreamed that Li Yuanqing would be so busy with official duties, but in this state, he still insisted on going to today's appointment.

Of course, Qi Xiaorong's face may be involved in this, but Qi San understands that Li Yuanqing attaches great importance to credibility, which has penetrated into his bones.

What an honor it is for the Qi family to get Li Yuanqing's promise to join him!

Seeing that Li Yuanqing came over in person, Qi Xiaorong was also filled with joy.

But~, seeing Li Yuanqing so drunk and exhausted, she felt unspeakably distressed in her heart.

This man is really...

In this life, she, Qi Xiaorong, is able to serve her by her side, which is really a tribute to her ancestors.

After exchanging a few words, Li Yuanqing chuckled and said, "Third Master, why don't you eat something to fill your stomach first? You are making Yuan Qing feel bad."

Qi San hurriedly smiled and said: "Li Shuai, I, Qi San, have heard about your name Li Shuai for a long time, but I always thought that there was a lot of exaggeration in it. But at this time, my old man finally understood why, Li Shuai

, how can you get to where you are today in less than ten years?"

Li Yuanqing laughed loudly: "Third Master, let's not talk nonsense. Fortunately, today is all about stew. Rong'er, heat up the vegetables. Let's eat some to fill our stomachs first. I drank a lot of wine tonight.

, I haven’t even eaten a few bites of food yet.”

Qi Xiaorong happily placed the small pot on the brazier, and delicately helped Li Yuanqing and Qi San put the dishes and chopsticks on them.

In winter, at this time, stir-fried vegetables are just a decoration. The real bulk is meat dishes, especially stewed meat.

Not only can it repel the cold and keep warm, the hot broth can also make people feel full subconsciously.

Even though Li Yuanqing was almost as wealthy as his country at this time, he still followed the rules in this regard.

Qi Xiaorong helped Li Yuanqing and Qi San fill their wine glasses. Li Yuanqing smiled and touched Qi San's glass, and was about to drink it.

Qi San said hurriedly: "Li Shuai, wait a minute."

"Um?"

Li Yuanqing glanced at Qi San doubtfully.

Qi San smiled hurriedly and said: "Li Shuai, my old man, my old man is not innocent after all. Let's try this food and wine first."

As he spoke, he took out a silver needle that was thicker than a toothpick and tried it one by one in the soup pot and a dozen side dishes.

Then he smiled and said: "Li Shuai, everything is not poisonous."

Li Yuanqing laughed loudly, drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, picked up a piece of beef with a smile, put it in his mouth and chewed it, and said with a loud laugh: "If the third master can stay with Yuan Qing, Yuan Qing will be even more powerful!"

Qi San also drank the wine in his glass in one gulp, but said with a wry smile: "If Qi San could have known Li Shuai earlier, why would he have ended up like this? What a pity! How hateful! Alas...it is your own fault, you will not live!"

Li Yuanqing laughed loudly and said: "Third Master, you can't say that. How can everything be smooth sailing in life? Some setbacks and some difficulties are inevitable. As long as you keep the right direction in your heart, sooner or later

One day, we will get back on track."

Qi San also had to admire Li Yuanqing's broad-mindedness. He shook his head and said with a smile: "Li Shuai, my third son suddenly realized that I was still short of Ronger's dowry. I should use all my belongings as a dowry for Ronger."

ah!"

When the two met each other, they couldn't help laughing.

such a pity.

How could Qi San know that even though he and Qi Xiaorong stayed in the room for most of the night, their every move could not escape Li Yuanqing's eyes at all.

If the food was really poisonous, how could Li Yuanqing dare to be so bold?

Li Yuanqing values ​​his own safety more than anyone else.

Today's dishes seem to be diverse and rich, but in fact, these dishes have one characteristic, and that is 'pure'.

The mutton in the stew pot is in white soup, the soybean is in clear soup and soybean, stir-fried yam, stir-fried toon sprouts, stir-fried sea cucumber, etc.

Moreover, the plates and stew pots for serving dishes have exquisite mechanisms inside.

If something was really wrong, Li Yuanqing's 'eyes' would be able to detect it right away.

Of course, Li Yuanqing would only let them rot in his stomach.
