Qin Feng must pave the way for Jing Qianying's return as soon as possible. After all, King Beidi will never sit still and wait for death.
…
At night, in the capital of Beidi, Yunxiang comes to the restaurant.
In a sense, today is the first time that Liang and Di have had "high-level contact" on the land of Di. They thought it would be a grand banquet, but the result was exactly the opposite.
Everything seemed very low-key. Yunxianglai Restaurant was operating normally, and the lobby on the first floor was already occupied by guests from all walks of life.
Only the innermost room on the second floor was left alone.
Qin Feng was very satisfied with Jing Ci's arrangement. After all, this was the attitude of "talking about things".
If because Qin Feng hosted a banquet for Chen Si, a large number of high-level officials from the Di Kingdom came, which would not be suitable for talking about any actual matters. This night would only turn into worthless politeness.
Qin Feng asked Ning Hu to wait outside the door. When he opened the door, he found that everything that was supposed to come was here, and everything that wasn't supposed to come was also here.
Of course, Chen Si and Jing Ci need not be mentioned. In addition, there are two guests present, namely Zhang Bingguo, the Minister of War, and the country's spy chief, Li Yu.
Qin Feng was not surprised at the uninvited arrival of these two people.
Compared to the tense situation at the city gate today, the atmosphere at the scene was actually quite warm and harmonious.
Since Chen Si only had one arm left, it was inconvenient for him to clasp his fists in salute. He had his own unique way of saluting, which was to hold his fists against his chest.
It was more like some kind of oath taking action than a salute.
"Qin Feng, farewell to Liang Guo in Kyoto. We haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you very much."
"We agreed at the beginning that when you come to my capital of Dadi, I will be the host and entertain my brothers. However, it ends up costing Brother Qin money. This is really inappropriate."
Everything Chen Si showed was extremely sincere and warm, as if he had already forgotten all about Qin Feng's murder of Chen Mou and Chen Li, and the blood feud that destroyed the Snow Wolf Brigade.
Fortunately, there were no outsiders at the scene. If he had been seen by the common people or Daotouqing, they would definitely curse Chen Si as a traitor who cheated on others.
Qin Feng also resented the late meeting, and quickly bowed his hands: "Being able to see Brother Chen again is my wish."
"Brother Chen doesn't know. It's a long and arduous journey from Kyoto, Daliang, to your country. But when I think of meeting Brother Chen, I can't wait to get my wings and fly over."
The people present were all old foxes. Even though they knew that Qin Feng and Chen Si were playing tricks on each other, no one found out.
On the contrary, everyone tried their best to cooperate and smiled all over their faces.
Chen Si stretched out his hand and pointed to Li Yu and Zhang Bingguo beside him: "Qin Feng, let me introduce to you. This is Mr. Zhang, the Minister of the Ministry of War, and this one is His Majesty's confidant, Mr. Li Yu."
Li Yu's official position is not a secret at all to Qin Feng, but there are some things that are still inconvenient to point out. You can't tell Qin Feng directly that Li Yu is the spy chief.
After all, the word "spy" usually has a strong derogatory connotation. To put it bluntly, it means that it is difficult to be polite.
Qin Feng and the two of them saluted one after another.
Zhang Bingguo smiled brightly: "Hahaha, I have already met the Marquis of Qin at the city gate today. I must say that the Marquis of Qin is really young and promising, and he is a talented person."
"The Liang Kingdom is truly blessed to have an arm like the Marquis of Qin. I, Dadi, am so jealous just looking at him."
As soon as Zhang Bingguo opened his mouth, he knew that he was an old courtier, and his words were smooth.
Li Yu on the side looked Qin Feng up and down, even though Li Yu's ears were almost numb when he heard the name "Qin Feng".
But today, it was the first time I saw Qin Feng in person, and I was amazed.
Although I had known that Qin Feng was a young man, I was still extremely surprised after seeing it with my own eyes.
He immediately smiled and praised: "With the age of Marquis Qin, it is unprecedented to be able to reach such a position today. I admire you very much."
Qin Feng first smiled at Zhang Bingguo, and then looked at Li Yu. Naturally, he did not dare to be careless in the face of this old fox who had been working as a spy all his life.
"Haha, Mr. Li, I'm grateful. I'm just lucky."
Upon hearing this, Li Yu waved his hands repeatedly: "Excuse me? It's absolutely not the case!"
"There are countless young talents in the world. There are not a few who become generals at the age of fifteen or sixteen and lead troops into battle to kill the enemy. There are many examples of those who have passed the examination and become officials at such a young age."
"But like the Marquis of Qin, a versatile man who can bring order to the world with his pen and a horse with military skills. Even though I have lived for most of my life, I have only heard of this one case of Marquis Qin."
"The Marquis of Qin alone is better than thousands of troops."
Li Yu's evaluation of Qin Feng is not low, but whether it is sincere praise or sugar-coated bullets, only Li Yu himself knows.
Everyone was chatting and laughing as they took their seats, and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.
Jing Ci sat next to him and said nothing, just quietly watching Qin Feng and Dadi's three important courtiers, drinking and chatting, secretly learning and improving.
After some polite remarks, Qin Feng took the lead to get to the point, raised his glass of wine and looked at Chen Si opposite.
"Brother Chen, I would like to toast you with this glass of wine. Firstly, it is a reunion after a long separation. Secondly, Chen Mou and Chen Li died on the battlefield, and the whole Snow Wolf Brigade has exhausted its ink to express peace."
After saying that, Qin Feng drank it all in one gulp and poured another glass naturally.
Chen Si still had a smile on his face: "Marquis Qin, don't worry too much. After all, in war, people will die. As a soldier, it is your fate to be wrapped in horse leather. This point, from the moment Chen Mou and Chen Li rushed to the battlefield, they I’ve already realized something.”
"Besides, if I hadn't been lucky, I might have died on the battlefield before I could even experience the national war."
As he spoke, Chen Si reached out and touched the empty sleeve on the other side, as if the wound he had been shot by the Tianji Camp guard was still aching.
Jing Ci admired Chen Si's generosity and extraordinary theorem.
If it were her, carrying such a blood feud, she would have already fallen out with Qin Feng.
At this moment, Zhang Bingguo, who was sitting next door, took advantage of the situation and asked: "I heard that the Marquis of Qin and Her Highness the Princess reached a preliminary deal? A shop in exchange for a reduction of one million taels of silver? I don't know if this is true or not? Rumor?"
Qin Feng did not hide anything and said straightforwardly: "It is true, but there are some discrepancies."
"The matter of war reparations has been established by the missions of the two countries. Even if the reparations must be reduced or reduced, it needs to be discussed and decided by the ministers of Liang Dynasty. It is definitely not something that a little Qin Feng can decide."
"This one million taels of silver is a kickback."
