Chapter 289: Everyone has their own thoughts

Li Qing's wedding was luxurious and grand. Although Dingzhou was in a hurry to follow the power during the war and had already simplified too many rules and regulations, even when several officials of the Ministry of Rites believed that this was a big disobedience to the etiquette, the people of Dingzhou who had been living on the edge for a long time were still feasted. These people at the bottom of the Great Chapel never thought that marriage would be so twisted. They were very excited to see, but Li Qing, who was involved, was very distressed. He was bent on his ritual officials and was worried about the war in Ma Wangji and other places. Today, it should be the day when Lu Dalin launched an attack. Victory is not to be doubted, but the counterattack of the barbarians who were in desperate situations must be unprecedented. The energy that a nation bursts when it is on the verge of extinction cannot be underestimated. I hope everything goes well.

The huge wedding team moved from outside the city toward the newly built Zhenxihoufu. Along the way, the only regret of the people of Dingzhou who were extremely enthusiastic was that they could not see the beauty of the Dingzhou mistress. The full-blown Qiding Baoxiang Car blocked everyone's sight. However, since they were royal princesses, their appearance and figure were naturally not bad. Otherwise, how could they be worthy of our wise and powerful Marshal Li! While guessing the appearance of the new mistress in their hearts, the people of Dingzhou were magnanimous and went there to receive their reward.

When Li Qing got married, every household in Dingzhou City could get one qian, two kilograms of meat, and half a kilogram of wine (slightly smelling wine!). Once the wedding team stepped into the town's Xihou Mansion, there would be no more lively. That place was not a place where ordinary people could set foot.

At this time, high-ranking officials gathered in Zhenxihou Mansion and were full of distinguished guests. The major forces of the Chu Dynasty sent out powerful generals to Dingzhou in the name of congratulations. Even Zhong Ziqi, who almost returned to the west after his death in Dingzhou, also came to Dingzhou with the title of deputy envoy. This made Qingfeng feel so angry that he locked himself in the office of the Statistics and Investigation Department, wondering if he would find an opportunity to cut off this guy in one fell swoop and eliminate future troubles forever.

After Zhong Ziqi escaped from Dingzhou, he kept jumping up and down the hinterland of Da Chu. While King Tining was collecting information, he was even more capable of winning over. The special agent sent by Qingfeng to follow him was really not his opponent. He was either tricked by Zhong Ziqi or lost his trace in a few seconds. By the time he realized that Zhong Ziqi had already appeared leisurely in another place.

Not only King Ning, but also the Lü clan of Jing'an Hou who was entrenched in the north, and the Zeng clan of Zheng, who was magnificently established in the east, all sent envoys with extremely high status among the clans to Dingzhou. Of course, they were congratulating on the surface, but secretly these envoys were working hard to find a suitable opportunity to meet Li Qing.

The emperor of Da Chu is also very pitiful. Nowadays, all the aristocratic families that can shake the foundation of Da Chu have clearly known what is about to happen. The private alliances and alliances are in full swing. However, in the palace, the high-ranking Emperor Tianqi is still doing Li Qing's dream of expanding the border, using his unparalleled achievements to serve as his foreign aid and revive the great Chu dream.

Yuan Fang, the commander of the official position of the official position, was plotted against him, and he was not sure of his life or death. Ding Yu, who succeeded him, had already been in Cao's mind. The loss of the key department of the official position of the official position made Emperor Tianqi completely deaf and blind.

Of course, these special guests sat in the hall. It is of course unrealistic to meet Li Qing these days, but they can get in touch with Li Qing’s most important generals, Shang Haibo and Lu Yiming, and can also find out the next direction of Dingzhou from them. As for meeting Li Qing, it is of course to be able to gain a sufficient ally.

No matter what the rich and separatist warlords felt in their hearts, they had to admit that after Li Qing pacified the barbarians, he had already become a figure with a certain influence on the entire situation in the Great Chu. He took Dingfu two states as a base, leaned against the vast grassland, and even had Shiwei people farther away. Li Qing's strength had increased sharply. This is not the Li clan standing behind him. If this is included, Li Qing's potential will be greater.

Of course, as these old forces entrenched in Da Chu for many years, Li Qing's power, which is like a rocket, is an ally worthy of great efforts to win over, but he is not qualified to become an opponent. The years of war with the grassland have exhausted the financial, material and manpower of the two states of Dingfu. In a short period of time, Li Qing will never be able to get involved in the Central Plains. Perhaps after several years of rest and recuperation, his strength is enough to compete for the Central Plains, but by then, the overall situation in the Central Plains has been decided, and he will no longer have such a good opportunity as he is now. Therefore, what he can do now is to choose one of the many forces, and choose the force he believes is the most likely to sit in the country to form an alliance.

Whether it is King Ning, the Lü family in the north, or the Zeng family in the east, they all have a strong confidence in themselves and have the spirit of no other than me. These families are sitting in the VIP hall at the same time, so naturally there is a verbal battle and sarcasm.

Li Qing came over, and after a glass of wine in turn, he left the table. Shang Haibo stayed here with a smile, while toasting the wine, listening to the mutual struggle between the people during the meal. Shang Haibo naturally knew the purpose of these people. His commander had become the target of these top clans. In the eyes of these people, he was of course the person who could greatly influence the commander. Seeing these people who had to look up to him constantly lifting the wine glass to him, and saying some slanderous words that even he felt embarrassed when he heard it, Shang Haibo was filled with emotion.

A few years ago, I was an arrogant scholar whom I despised from Shouning Hou Mansion. I was eating a bowl of idle rice, looking at others' eyes, listening to others' hungry laughter, and accidentally letting myself come to Dingzhou. I was afraid that I would not have expected that on a whim, I would have achieved my lifelong dream, learned the dragon-slaying technique, and sold it to the imperial family. Since the imperial family didn't want it, I would support a new emperor, and Li Qing was the hero he had been looking for for many years.

The golden scales are not something in the pond, but they turn into dragons when they encounter wind and clouds. When I think about it carefully, I am afraid that the Yunhui Captain whom I saw was determined but slightly green, could grow into a commander in a few years, and the world could change with a turn of hands. Only 300 defeated soldiers have become a powerful army with tens of thousands of troops and a mighty force in the Great Chu. At that time, Wang Qinian, Jiang Kui, Feng Guo, Tang Hu, and Yang were still not worth mentioning in his sword, but now they are all generals who command tens of thousands of troops. Every bit and every drop is a collection of their sweat and hard work.

Those famous nobles who were afraid that they wouldn't even look at them in front of them now raise their glasses with a smile. It's really a fate. If they were swept out like a waste by the Shouning Hou Mansion and sent to Dingzhou, they were really angry, how could they have the energy they are today!

Looking at these so-called VIPs coldly, Shang Haibo laughed in his heart, wait, wait for me to assist the general, sweep the six deserts and eight combinations, and sweep you high-ranking people into the garbage dump of history. The future history of Da Chu will be written by our Dingzhou.

Of course, Dingzhou now needs to be nourished and wait for the opportunity, as these people think, the chaos in Da Chu will not be able to decide the outcome within a few years, but let you bite the dog first. This is a great opportunity for us Dingzhou to get along with each other and make profits from it.

The people in the hall who have the most clear understanding of Li Qing is Zhong Ziqi. Li Qing is definitely not the kind of person who is willing to be submissive, but the current situation has not left Li Qing much time. Zhong Ziqi also believes that as long as His Highness Ning can quickly determine the overall situation and pacify the Central Plains when Li Qing's teeth have not yet fully grown, then no matter how ambitious Li Qing has, he can only surrender to His Highness Ning. Li Qing can defeat the grassland in a short time, but it is impossible to restore the land of the two states to the heart of the Central Plains with the land of great lands. Moreover, at that time, with Ning's great talent and strategy, he could only impress Li Qing, the fierce tiger.

What Zhong Ziqi wanted to do was to allow Li Qing to effectively restrain the Xiao family after pacifying the grassland. This was not only because the Li Xiao family had a long-term feud, but also that Bingzhou and Lanzhou were adjacent to Dingfu, and these two states had defected to the Xiao family. In this case, Li Qing could not be wary of these two states. As long as Li Qing made an attack on these two states at that time, it would be enough to make Xiao family worried.

There are intrigues in the VIP room, and everyone has their own ideas in the lobby outside.

Xiang Wenjin and Long Sihai were also invited to the banquet for their contributions to the issuance of bonds in Dingzhou. You should know that there are so many great merchants and businessmen in Dingfu and there are very few people who can be invited to sit here. With the honor of being in the face of honor, Xiang Wenjin was extremely grateful for his decisive decision-making and avoiding disasters. At present, it seems that not only avoiding disasters, but his future is bright. He is now a director of the Dingzhou Trade Department, but what makes him a little unhappy is that Long Sihai, a native rich man from Jing'an, not only became a director of the Trade Department, but also far superior to him when he was arranging a seat. The speculation of this local rich man at that time achieved great returns. Not only was his son recruited as an official by the prefecture, but Li Dashuai also handed over the production rights of a batch of military supplies to him. This was a monopoly operation, and the huge profits could be imagined.

Long Sihai, who was jealous of Xiang Wenjin, has reason to be happy. His investment has never failed in his life. Now he is ushering in the peak of his career. Following Li Dashuai closely, the Long family will climb to the peak in his hands and sweep his eyes across the VIP hall inside. Perhaps in a few years, he or his son will have the opportunity to walk inside and become a guest there.

The congratulatory people had their own thoughts, but Li Qing, who was slightly drunk, came to the bridal chamber under the guidance of several maids. Tang Hu, who was conscientious and responsible, followed him step by step.
