Liangzhou government office.
This day.
Li Chengqian was dressed neatly and was about to go to the street to take a look.
But before he could go out, a boy came in to report.
"Your Highness, there is someone looking for you outside."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment and asked: "Who is coming? Male or female?"
The reason why he asked.
It was because of this period that Zhai Yuexiu came to see him almost every two days.
And the reason for looking for him is the same, either to contract a project here, or to contract a project somewhere.
It would be fine if Li Chengqian agreed, but if he didn't agree, he would have to face some of this woman's tricks.
Her tactics were the same almost every time, either crying, making trouble, or hanging.
When did Li Chengqian experience this situation of crying, making trouble, and hanging himself?
None of the women in his family had ever given him such stimulation.
So much so that even now, Li Chengqian shudders when the words Zhai Yuexiu are mentioned.
Fortunately, the boy said: "The person who came here is a man, claiming to be the head of the Zhao family in Liangzhou."
The head of the Zhao family?
What is he here for?
Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and then said: "Let him come in."
Not long after, Zhao Yongbai, the head of the Zhao family in Liangzhou, walked in from outside.
When he saw Li Chengqian, he bowed his hands and saluted, shouting: "The common people pay homage to His Highness the King of Qin..."
"no."
Li Chengqian waved his hand, then raised his eyes to look at the person in front of him.
Although Zhao Yongbain, the head of the Zhao family, is not very old, he is still in his late thirties or early forties.
And because of his long-term wealthy life, this man has an excellent complexion. Even people younger than him do not have such a good complexion.
Li Chengqian smiled slightly and said, "I don't know, why are you here looking for me today?"
"It's nothing."
"There is a banquet tonight."
"At that time, all the heads of the major families in Liangzhou City will be present."
Zhao Yongbai bowed slightly and said, "The common people came here specially to invite His Highness to come with them."
Invite yourself to the banquet?
And also attending a banquet of aristocratic family?
who is he?
He is Li Chengqian, the public enemy of the family.
Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhao Yongbai in front of him.
He even felt that the person in front of him might have some bad brains.
Li Chengqian pointed to himself and felt happy.
He said: "Are you sure you want to invite me to the family gathering?"
"certainly."
"If Your Highness can come to my house, I will definitely make my house shine."
Zhao Yongbai also smiled and said: "I hope His Highness will appreciate you."
Hearing these words, the smile on Li Chengqian's lips became even thicker.
People have said so. If he doesn't go, wouldn't it be too disrespectful to others?
Li Chengqian really didn't expect that one day, a noble family would take the initiative to invite him to dinner.
He thought he would have to fight with the noble family to the end for the rest of his life.
…
That afternoon.
Li Chengqian arrived as promised.
A group of people from the Zhao family came out to greet him in person, lined up at the door and shouted "Your Highness."
That scene really gave Li Chengqian enough face.
Li Chengqian waved his hand casually and said, "Okay, just take it all away and keep a low profile."
Zhao Yongbai smiled slightly and then stepped forward.
He said: "I didn't expect that His Highness would actually come as promised, which really warms our hearts."
I just came here to have a meal, what is there to warm my heart?
Li Chengqian chuckled.
He said: "Master Zhao invites me so kindly, how can I not come?"
"But, I'm curious."
"Master Zhao, why did you choose to invite me to the banquet?"
"After all, I still know my image in the eyes of my family."
"I thought that the Liangzhou family would be the same as those families, and they would all regard me as their life and death enemy."
Li Chengqian said these words as if he were joking.
Although these words seemed to be a joke, there was so much meaning hidden in them, how could Zhao Yongbai not know?
It was obvious that Li Chengqian was asking him what he wanted to pursue.
Zhao Yongbai chuckled lightly.
He said: "How can we, from a small family, compare with those big families in Jiangnan Road?"
"In their eyes, we may just be some low-class guys."
"The reason why they are against His Highness is because His Highness has touched their fundamental interests."
"And how can we have so many benefits? We are just barely able to survive."
"We are the ones who invited His Highness here today. We just want to discuss with His Highness how we, the aristocratic families, should develop in the future."
Zhao Yongbai said it politely and in a very humble tone.
After listening to his words, Li Chengqian couldn't help but have a flash of light in his eyes.
Ouyou?
I didn’t expect that these Liangzhou aristocratic families would be so virtuous.
Before he could do anything to them, they chose to come over and surrender.
This really surprised Li Chengqian, and it was also a bit unexpected.
Li Chengqian smiled and nodded: "If that's the case, then this meal is worth it."
After saying that, he followed Zhao Yongbai into the house.
Today, Zhao Yongbai indeed put on a great show.
Many prominent people in Liangzhou City came.
When these people saw Li Chengqian, they were all very surprised.
After all, everyone knows that Li Chengqian's relationship with aristocratic families from all over the world has never been very happy.
As one of the famous families in Liangzhou, the Zhao family in Liangzhou is very powerful.
Not only is he related by marriage to several other major families, but he also has interests in dealings with many bureaucrats in Chang'an City.
In addition, in recent years, because the scholars from poor families have been put into important positions, they have also focused on cultivating the scholars from poor families in Liangzhou, and some of them have already passed the examination.
Although the Zhao family has never shown any ambition, they have actually taken the lead among the Liangzhou family.
Today Zhao Yongbai invited Li Chengqian to the dinner.
To a certain extent, doesn't this mean that Zhao Yongbai wants to bring the entire Zhao family to attach themselves to Li Chengqian?
Now that the Zhao family is attached, how big of a storm can the other aristocratic families make?
These people present are also smart people.
They could immediately see where the wind would blow next.
On the wine table.
Li Chengqian also showed the courage that a royal child should have.
Every move he raises his hands and feet carries an air of nobility that no one else can match, let alone learn from.
At this time, Zhao Yongbai led the two of them to Li Chengqian.
He slowly said: "Your Highness, this is the head of the Chen family in our Liangzhou City, and the other one is the head of the Zhan family."
"These two families, like Zhao, have always admired His Highness, and they came here today just to communicate with His Highness."
As soon as he finished speaking, the head of the Chen family, Chen Shang, said: "Yes, Your Highness, I have experienced His Majesty's heroic appearance earlier, but I am of low status and cannot be close to Him."
"Brother Zhao is also lucky today to be able to invite His Highness home for the banquet. Your Highness must give Mr. Chen a chance to toast."
With that said, he picked up the wine bowl and faced Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian did not hesitate, smiled heartily, and said: "Master Chen, you're welcome, I just have a better background than others, there's nothing special about me."
"I'll drink this bowl of wine, you can do whatever you want..."
