Chapter 420: Things that happened during and after the banquet

Seeing the crowd staring at him with wide eyes, Li Qing couldn't help but touch his head awkwardly. After a while, he forgot that he had to prepare gifts. Now that everyone else has put the things on the table, An Min is his own son, but she forgot. After glanced at Ji Yue, she also looked at him with a straight look.

After exploring her body for a while, she was really useless. Not to mention gifts, there was not even a single gold ingot and silver ingot. She smiled embarrassedly. She was about to make a haha, but when her hands drooped, she touched something on her waist. Her eyes lit up. Without thinking, she took the object off and held it in her hand, and smiled and said, "Just give this thing to Anmin!"

It was a rectangular jade pendant. The whole jade pendant was fiery red. Under the reflection of the light, it was extremely bright. What was particularly precious is that in the center of this fire jade, a vivid yellow dragon entrenched in the middle, with its teeth and claws and hair and beards clearly visible.

I thought I wanted to win a lot of prizes, but Li Qing was proud to find that everyone at the table was silent. Shang Haibo's face was even worse. After watching from both sides, he saw Qingcheng's face was also ugly.

Li Qing shrugged and was about to put the fire jade next to An Min. However, Ji Yue stood up suddenly, reached out and grabbed Li Qing's arm, and said, "Brother, this thing is too precious to give to An Min!"

Hearing Jiyue say this, Shang Haibo's face looks a little better and he glances at Jiyue with admiration.

"It's just a toy. What's the precious thing? In my eyes, Anmin is the most precious thing!" Li Qing smiled.

Shang Haibo stood up, "Master, the eldest son is young, and such a precious jade pendant is given to the young son to play. It would be a pity if it was smashed. There is probably only such a top-notch one in the world."

Li Qing looked at him strangely, glanced at the fire jade in his hand, and saw the yellow dragon with its teeth and claws, and suddenly understood what everyone was thinking, and why Qingcheng's face looked so ugly. He took back the fire jade and said, "This is difficult. I really didn't prepare anything else. Since everyone said it was not suitable, let's forget it. I'll look for a good gift for him tomorrow."

The symbolic significance of this Huanglong jade pendant is too important. Everyone here, including Boyan Sushun, and Qingcheng, understands that Li Qing is definitely determined to be the world now, but An Min is not a legitimate son after all. If Li Qing is allowed to give this thing to An Min, it would be a confirmation of An Min's special status. The eldest lady Qingcheng is now pregnant with Liujia. Once she gave birth to a legitimate son, the dispute over the eldest son will inevitably occur within Dingzhou.

With this accident, the atmosphere in the hall became a little subtle, and the previously active atmosphere seemed a little stiff for a moment. "Please take the gift and ask for food to serve later!" Li Qing said: "Everyone, today, the 100-day banquet for the dog son, everyone should not return drunk."

When the topic was changed, Li Qing smiled.

"That's right!" Everyone answered with a loud bang. Although their thoughts were all turning on their hearts, there was no abnormality on their faces. Who could sit in the hall was not a guy with a delicate heart? Did the Grand Marshal do it deliberately or was it really an unconscious behavior today? Everyone was turning on this thought in their hearts.

Shang Haibo felt very heavy. The handsome man's favor for Qingfeng has not diminished. This is something he knew very well. Moreover, since he could not marry Qingfeng into the house, he felt an inexplicable guilt towards her. If this guilt turned into a love house and a slut, it would be very bad.

Qingfeng is one of the three carriages that constitute the power structure of Dingzhou. Apart from Li Qing, her influence is not lower than herself. Once her nephew becomes the legitimate heir of Dingzhou, her power will inevitably swell further. Although her relationship with Ji Yue is not very harmonious, Shang Haibo dares not take this risk. After all, the same blood flows in their blood vessels. Once reconciled, Qingfeng's ability will inevitably cause fatal damage to the power structure of Dingzhou. Even when the great commander's foundation is complete, it may even evolve into a situation where foreign relatives interfere in politics. His knowledge runs through ancient and modern times. Shang Haibo, who has seen too many such events, would never want this situation to happen.

"I hope Princess Qingcheng can give birth to a legitimate son. Now that the power of the Great Chu is in vain, Princess Qingcheng's power is far from enough to shake the foundation of Dingzhou. The legitimate son inherits the foundation of the future marshal, which is more conducive to long-term stability." Shang Haibo thought about his thoughts and looked up at Princess Qingcheng opposite. Unexpectedly, she was also looking at her opposite.

The two of them had a slight touch, and then turned to another place as if nothing had happened. After a few bites of the dishes, Qingcheng whispered to Li Qing: "Master, I feel a little uncomfortable, I want to take my leave."

Li Qing glanced at her high bulge and said caringly: "It's nothing, right? You're going to give birth, so you must be careful. If you feel uncomfortable, please ask Mr. Huan Xi to take a look."

Qingcheng frowned and said, "It's nothing big, it's okay to go back and lie down."

"Okay, go, please tell me if you have anything to do!" Li Qing said.

Qingcheng nodded, stood up, and accused everyone of the crime. Everyone in the hall also stood up together, watching Qingcheng stagger into the back hall.

After three rounds of drinking, everyone was in high spirits. A personal guard suddenly rushed into the hall, leaned over and whispered a few words in Li Qing's ear. Li Qing's face changed slightly, he stood up and said, "Everyone, I'm sorry, suddenly there is an emergency official service, I need to deal with it, everyone will take care of it. Mr. Shang, Mr. Lu, General Lu, Hu Zi, you follow me."

Shang Haibo and the other two stood up suddenly. At this time, something suddenly happened, which must be related to the two-line battlefields.

The four of them followed Li Qing into the study. There was a person waiting there in the study, but Tang Hu was talking with him. Seeing Li Qing and others coming in, the man stood up and bowed to Li Qing, "I have met the Grand Marshal!" He turned to Shang Haibo and others, "I have met you all sirs."

Li Qing waved his hand, "No need to be polite, just talk about it!"

"Yes, the Grand Commander, the subordinate is He Xinwu, the captain of the Zhenwu Division of Military Information. Today, I received a close report and came to report the military information to the Grand Commander!"

"How is going?" Li Qing raised his eyebrows. Although he knew that the matter had been settled when he saw He Xinwu's expression, he had to say it out to be more at ease.

"Teacher Deng Peng sent news that ten days ago, General Zheng Zhiyuan and Zeng's coalition led their troops to conquer Quancheng and Yingcheng, cutting off the retreat of the Northern Army's Lu Fengchun's troops. Now, Lu Fengchun's troops have been blocked in Shenzhou." He Xinwudao.

"Okay!" Li Qing smiled, "This Zheng Zhiyuan is very good. He wiped out Zhongxiang, Bozhou some time ago, and now he cut off the main force of the Northern Army's journey to the north, laying a good foundation for our army to defeat the Lu family!"

Everyone in the room was filled with joy.

"Master, Jiang Kui's troops should be launched!" Shang Haibo said.

"Hu Zi, I will immediately pass the order to Jiang Kui and Tian Feng, and tell them that I will set off tomorrow and I will arrive at Luo Feng in two days. At that time, I will see that their army has broken through the opponent's defense line and starts to drive straight in."

"Yes, Grand Marshal!" Tang Hu's eyes shone. Grand Marshal was going to visit the front line again. If he was lucky, he might be able to fight for a few more battles.

"Master, take action on the northern line. I'm afraid it's not far away from the mountain wind, so you must be prepared there too!" Shang Haibo said.

"It's not just the mountain wind!" Li Qing said excitedly. "Beard, you Qi Nian's division must be prepared. Enter Fuzhou at any time and support the mountain wind battle. I must take down the whole province. General Lu, you are also prepared in Bingzhou and wait for an opportunity to act. If it is as we expected, when Xiao defeats King Ning and goes straight into the area controlled by King Ning, Mr. Long from Xingzhou will probably also launch it. If there is a chance, we might as well beat the dogs in the water. We can't let Qu Yongjie take away the benefits."

Lu Dalin was ready to beat his hands and said excitedly: "That's natural. After this battle, Xiao's family will never have a day to turn around. King Ning retreated to the south. If he could protect himself, he would have to burn high incense. Qu Yongjie's foundation was too weak. From then on, the power of the Great Chu was the only one in Dingzhou."

Li Qing smiled and said, "Mr. Long is very good at making a big plan. If you can take a little advantage, one will increase and the other will increase, which will be of great benefit to us in the future."

Everyone looked at each other and laughed, "Qingfeng's statistical survey department has made a lot of contributions to success this time. If she hadn't discovered the tricks of Qu Yongjie's side, we would have been kept in the dark now. By the way, Hu Zi, I'll notify Director Qingfeng of this situation immediately."

Qingfeng did not attend Anmin's 100-day banquet today, and everyone knew that it did not mention this matter. Now that the general mentioned Qingfeng, everyone looked at Tang Hu.

"Master, Director Qingfeng is not in Dingzhou. My wife accompanied the Director to Fuzhou. I heard from my wife that Yuan Fang was chasing Director Qingfeng all the way. The Director was extremely angry. After returning, he began to clean up the secret spies of the Fangsi. Dingzhou had basically wiped out the empty space. The situation in Fuzhou was a little more complicated. The Director went to preside over the presidency."

Li Qing sighed inwardly, knowing that Qingfeng was hiding this hundred-day banquet, but he couldn't say this.

The room here is extremely excited, but in the backyard of Zhenxihou Mansion, Qingcheng was depressed and sat alone under the lonely lamp, holding his hands on his cheeks, thinking about his thoughts in a daze.

The Great Chu is now in name only, and the Luoyang court is in control of the Xiao family. If they are willing, they can push Emperor Zhaoqing, who is above the throne, off the throne at any time. His husband Li Qing's intentions are becoming more and more obvious. It is not only him who is the wish of all his subordinates, but also the wishes of all his subordinates. Where will he go? Should he marry a chicken and follow the chicken, and the husband and wife follow him, or bow to the fullest for the Great Chu? It's just the current situation. Even if he is willing to be a fan of the Great Chu, can he change the form?

"Princess, General Nuo's wife, Princess Nev, please see me!" A palace maid tiptoed in and whispered.

"Neu, what did she do when she sees me?" Qingcheng raised his head, "No!" Qingcheng had no favors for this barbarian princess.
