Chapter 138: Travel to Huai'an

Although Fuzhou and Huai'an Prefecture live next to Dingzhou, there is no slight sense of war. Unlike the fierce martial arts of Dingzhou people, most street people are slow-wearing, calmly walking, walking as cars, teasing birds and dogs, and shops are lined with shops, and there are a wide range of products. The shops are smiling and constantly selling the products of our store to pedestrians on the street. There are also many beauties, dressed thinly, revealing large snow-white skin, holding round fans in their hands, or standing in front of the window upstairs, or leaning against the door lintel, with charming eyes and sending in autumn.

Li Qing shook his head and sighed: "The business girl does not know the hatred of the country's destruction, and she still sings the back garden across the river!" Cui Yicheng, who was accompanying him, did not hear what Li Qing was saying, but Mingyan's eyes lit up and she whispered: "Master, is this your new lyrics?"

Li Qing smiled softly and said, "No, I feel it. Seeing the scene here, I couldn't help but think of our Dingzhou. The two states are adjacent to each other, but the contrast is so great that it makes people feel moved."

This time Cui Yicheng heard it clearly and smiled and said, "The Grand Marshal is in Huai'an Prefecture. If you walk down and take a look, the scene will be very different. Huai'an Prefecture gathers most of the wealthy businessmen and gentry in Fuzhou, but the counties below are much worse, especially those salted people, whose lives are still quite miserable. It is not an exaggeration to describe it by not filling your stomach and not covering your clothes."

"Oh?" Li Qing said interestedly: "Why aren't you afraid of these men rebelling? The three southern states are full of bees. In the final analysis, it's not because you can't eat enough."

Cui Yicheng smiled and said, "Master Xiang is quite clever in this. Although people are not full, they will not starve to death. As long as the people still have some hope, they will take risks and do these beheading activities. If the salt officials in some places are too excessive, Master Xiang will also be a warning to them."

"So, Mr. Xiang is quite smart. He knows where the bottom line is!" Li Qing laughed.

"Of course, smart. If you are not smart, how could you sit in Fuzhou for so many years? You must know that even in the queen's family, there are many people who covet this position!" Cui Yicheng said with a smile.

"Well, I like smart people, it's easier to deal with smart people." Li Qing said: "Have you arranged it all?"

"Don't worry, Grandmaster, I have arranged everything. I have booked the venue in Yipinju, the largest restaurant in Huai'an Prefecture tonight and only entertained the two Grandmasters."

Huai'an Grand Marshal's Mansion, Xiang Xianhe, was as fat as a ball, and was striding in the room with his stomach. After walking back and forth for a few laps, he finally stopped breathlessly, raised a post in his hand and sneered: "What do you want to do in Cui Yicheng? I'm invited to the banquet, grandma, can I be invited as long as he wants? I haven't settled the score with him yet? I thought I had leaned on Li Qing and dominated the salt market in Dingzhou, but I still gave me the same portion as the old rules and regulations, thinking I was Ha'er!"

An aide on the side smiled and said, "Master General, Cui Yicheng doesn't understand the rules and regulations, so you have to go even more. Teach him the rules and regulations well and ask him to make up for the members. How can he let him go for nothing?"

Xiang Xianhe sneered: "Teaching him rules and regulations, I need to go in person. If you can go out alone in the Marshal's Mansion, you can squeeze out his bones. If you are quarrel with me, I will let him know how many eyes Mr. Ma has?"

The staff wiped the sweat and advised: "Mastery, isn't Cui Yicheng related to Li Qing and Li Dashui in Dingzhou? We can't do anything wrong. It's not easy to meet with Marital Li in the future? Besides, Marital Li is already the royal prince consort, and he is still a relative of the Marital!"

After hearing this, Xiang Xianhe touched his stomach, "It seems that you have a reason. Li Qing can't do too well with him, but if you really want to talk about seniority, he has to call me Uncle!" At this point, he couldn't help but feel proud and laughed, saying, "Master Ji, you don't know. I wrote a letter from the capital saying that Li Qing and Qingcheng had a fight, hahaha, it's so funny. That girl suffered a lot this time, but couldn't say it, hahaha!"

Master Ji wiped his sweat again. It was better to know these secrets of the royal family. However, the Grand Marshal claimed to be Li Qing's uncle, but he didn't know whether Li Qing recognized it. At a young age, he severely defeated the barbarians and defeated Xiao Yuanshan. He was very good at making trouble. How could he mess with others?

"Yes, yes, Yang Dashui is Li Dashui's elder, and he has to teach Cui Yicheng the principle of being a human being for him. How can he destroy the bridge when crossing the river? Otherwise, Yang Dashui would break his salt road and make him cry. At that time, he would be afraid that Yang Dashui would not forgive him."

Xiang Xianhe slapped his belly and said, "It's reasonable. This time he won't let him vomit blood. I will never let him go. Master Ji, go and arrange it. We will go to the banquet in the evening."

Master Ji agreed and came out, and wiped his sweat a lot. He said in his heart: "Cui Yicheng, Cui Yicheng, if you want me to help you, you will definitely hire the Grand Marshal. I did it for you. This thousand taels of silver was not in vain, but the Grand Marshal made you ugly, so I can't blame me."

Hearing the handsome man's strange laughter and the screams of the girl serving him from the room, Master Ji hurriedly ran away.

At dusk, the street where Yipinlou was located was sealed off and the guards of Dashun's mansion stood far along the street. The bustling street suddenly became clear. Except for Yipinlou, the other merchants were complaining. Everyone knew that Xiang Dashun was going to Yipinlou, but in this street, the rest of the merchants had no business. The frowning bosses had a dark face and closed the door early. They all knew Dashun's virtues. They would not leave until late at night. Today, they could rest early.

Looking at this show, Li Qing on the Yipin Building shook his head and smiled: "Master Xiang is such a big show. It's like the emperor's tour, and he actually cleans the streets and clears the roads."

There was no outsider in the room, and Cui Yicheng became bolder. "Isn't General Xiang the local emperor of Fuzhou? He can tell the truth. Not to mention the street closure, even more outrageous things can be done."

Yang Yidao couldn't help but say, "Will he do this, be it because the other officials are blind? No one else has ginseng?"

Li Qing laughed, "A sword, in Fuzhou, as long as Xiang Dashu covers the sky with one hand, who dares to touch a hair? Besides, Xiang Dashu's backstage is not ordinary, it is very hard! Besides, Xiang Dashu is very rich and has enough money. As long as he doesn't raise the flag to rebel, who cares about him."

As he was talking, the door of the room sounded lightly, a team of Yuan Yuan and Yanyan entered in with musical instruments, bowed to everyone, and the person in the lead smiled and said, "Oh, Mr. Cui, I haven't invited us to support us for a while. Today, it's rare that you finally remember us again?"

Cui Yicheng laughed, "Cui hasn't returned to Huaian for a while. After coming back, will he invite Miss Ding quickly? Today I invited Grandma Xiang, Miss Ding, so Miss Ding has to show her real skills!"

Turning around and saying to Li Qing, "This is Miss Ding Ling from the daughter Yixiaolou "Salute to Yueguan". She is the top player in Huai'an Mansion, and she is both good at singing and dancing!"

Li Qing nodded, glanced at him, and then turned back to look downstairs. Qingfeng was not very interested. Only Mingyan saw her and couldn't help but look at her curiously. Ding Ling, who is the daughter of Yixiaolou, is also the leader of a state like her. She finally met today. She is really well-deserved. Not to mention whether she is a master of singing and dancing, her appearance is much better than herself.

When Ding Ling saw Cui Yicheng talking to Li Qing, she looked like a servant talking to her master. She was shocked and thought that this was the god who could make the rich man Cui in Huai'an so humble. She glanced over and looked at him with caution. She was shocked again. The two of them had such a strong murderous aura, and they must have seen the master of blood. The people in the entertainment are indeed poisonous, and they discovered that something was wrong at first glance.

Li Qing didn't care what Ding Ling had discovered. He came here today to discuss business with Xiang Xianhe. Even though Ding Ling was like Mingyan, he still had a special identity, so he didn't care.

There was a sudden sound of horse hooves coming downstairs. It seemed that Xiang Xianhe had arrived. When Li Qing looked at him, he couldn't help but widen his eyes. He had never seen a fat man before, but he had never seen such a fat man. The team of personal soldiers and horses surrounded a carriage and went downstairs. It looked like a person from the carriage, which was like a meat ball. Seeing the humble attitude of the people around him, the man must have been Xiang Xianhe.

"Is this fat man Xiang Damao?" Li Qing turned around and asked.

"Yes!" Cui Yicheng bowed and said, "I have to go and pick him up, otherwise Magistrate Xiang will be unhappy again." He sued Li Qing and ran away quickly.

Ding Ling on the side became more and more surprised. The young man actually called Xiang Dashen a fat man, and it was extremely natural and smooth. The people with him, and Cui Yicheng, did not express anything special, which shows that the young man's identity is unusual!

"Where is this young man from? But he is so nervous!" Ding Ling smiled and walked towards Li Qing. As soon as he took a step, Yang Yidao had already reached out to stop him and said in a cold voice: "Go aside."

Ding Ling's face changed drastically, and no one has ever been so rude to her. Even the coach Xiang downstairs had always been smiling at her, wanting to say something, but when he saw Yang Yidao's cold eyes, he went back again and retreated aside with aggrieved look on his face.

The floor creaked painfully outside the building. I thought Xiang Xianhe had arrived outside the door. Li Qing turned around, patted his face, and tried his best to make a smile.

The door opened, and a meat ball rolled in, but didn't see Li Qing. Instead, he saw Ding Ling on the side first. Before he could speak, he burst into laughter. "Ah, Lao Cui, you are a big deal today. Even Miss Ding from the Qianjin Yixiao Building and her entire team were invited. This is a lot of money? Miss Ding, I haven't seen her for one day? But I'm still having a good time. What will happen if I go to my house to sing in the next day?"

As he spoke, a pair of fleshy hands had already touched Ding Ling's little hand, holding it in his hand and rubbing it.

The grievance on Ding Ling's face was swept away, and she smiled and said in a smirk: "Isn't it easy for Da Zheng to listen to Ling'er's singing? You say hello, didn't Ling'er run over that time? But today, Da Zheng and the guests want to greet him!" As he said that, his eyes were aimed at Li Qing.

Li Qing's smiley face that was barely supported was already a little stiff at this time. Seeing Xiang Xianhe finally looked at him, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, Xiang Xianhe's face changed, "Old Cui, what do you mean?" He was both stern, obviously he didn't expect that there was someone else in the room whom he didn't know, and it was not a good person at first glance. Yang Yidao and the personal guard were too heavy. Xiang Xianhe had never eaten pork, and could he have never seen pig run? After all, he was also the Grand Marshal of Yizhou. He could see the difference between these people at one glance, and was shocked. Hearing Xiang Damao's angrily shout, the guard outside the door appeared beside the door.

Li Qing smiled and clasped his fists and said, "To the Grand Marshal, Li Qing from Dingzhou came to visit. I hope he can forgive the abruptness!"
