There are many things in the world that are most worthy of warmth and happiness. Today's reunion after a long absence and peace and smoothness can be ranked in the top ten.
On the night when Liu Yi returned to the city, Liu Quansheng did not cook the food himself as he did last year and had a warm dinner with his precious son.
Of course, this dinner was not just like the dust-cleansing banquet that Liu Yixuan had last time when he returned home, with just four people, but a grand affair.
This was Liu Quansheng's special arrangement.
In his opinion: As everything in Pingtian progresses steadily and gradually unfolds, the human past involved becomes more and more complicated, and there are more and more difficulties ahead. In order to achieve a great cause, Liu Yi needs to use this meal to stabilize people's hearts, unite the scholars, and convince talents, so that they can be used for his own purposes and support the great cause.
Liu Yi was reluctant to do this, but as a young and mature man, he knew that his father was doing the right thing, and he did not try to stop him.
Under the auspices of Liu Quansheng and Xia Qing, not many but not too many people were invited to this dinner. There were no separate meals. There were four tables in total, and the scene was very lively.
At the first table, there are Huaxing County Sheriff Ying Zhi, County Guard Chief Kong Wu, Recorder Cao Zhi, Huang Yuan, Reporter Guo Xiu, Lingyuan County Magistrate Ding Xinchuan, Men Cao Ding Xinshan, Huang Yan, plus Liu Yi and his son, ten people in total, were all prominent figures in Huaxing County. 33
At the second table were the parents of the children, and the big-headed Xia Qing who was shaking her head.
At the third table were Li Erniu, Wang Sanbao, Huangfu Lu, Mou Zihua, Mou Huazi, Guo Yizhi, Fang Yi, Miao Yiming, and Zhou Fu. They were all teenagers of the same age, so they chatted naturally and freely.
The fourth table was for Qiao Miaoqing, Bei Youwan, Yunyi, Su Di, Chailing, Chai Rong, Zhang Hui, and Sang Zhi. When Liu Yi asked Wang Dali where he wanted to sit, Wang Dali didn't even think about it and sat next to Qiao Miaoqing. beside.
Huaxing's officials, Pingtian's soldiers, everyone's relatives, Liu Yi's friends, almost all the power that can be leveraged in the future are here!
Liu Yi looked around and suddenly felt a sense of loss.
The hall is full today, and all the guests are happy. Seeing all the guests, old and young, there was only one young person.
The little one is naturally the most important piece of the puzzle in "Zigui Five Primary Schools" and should be completed.
In the battle in the wasteland, Yingcheng was seriously injured and lost an arm. He was disheartened and had difficulty calming down. Feeling that he could not help Liu Yi Pingtian, he went south alone and returned to Lingyuan City. According to what Yingcheng's father Yingzhi said, Ying Cheng only rested at home for a while, then settled in the Lingyuan Mountains alone, swearing that he would never leave the mountains until he entered the ruined city.
This time, his entry into the mountain was not as ambitious as the previous times, but this time, he did not retreat in spite of the difficulties like the previous times. Since entering the mountain, he has never come out again.
Passing by the Lingyuan Mountains, Liu Yi did not find Ying Cheng, the good brother he longed for. Liu Yi thought that Ying Cheng was deliberately avoiding him and did not want to meet him.
It seemed that this boy would never see me again unless he entered the broken city.
That’s fine! With affection in mind, let's work hard.
Before the banquet started, Liu Yi glanced at Ying Zhi, who was holding a broomstick and staring at him with triangular eyes. Liu Yi didn't need to think about it. He knew that this Master Ying was sulking at him. Woolen cloth!
After all, my precious only son used an arm to exchange for your life, Liu Yi.
As he was thinking about it, Liu Yi walked quickly to Ying Zhi's seat without bringing him a drink. He stopped, knelt down, and said sincerely, "Uncle Ying, Ying Zhi saved my life. It's so sad that I lost one of my arms. If you don't give up, you will never give up." , Yi is willing to respect Uncle Ying as his adoptive father."
"Get out! This county governor doesn't have a son like you, a bastard." Ying Zhi turned his head and said with a trembling voice, "If you want to do it, you should be the son of Mr. Huaxing."
As long as you are worthy of the people of Huaxing and worthy of the Lord's grace, I can give you everything, not to mention the son I should know, or even the life I should know.
"No! I will obey my foster father's orders."
Liu Yi chuckled and winked silently with his father, Liu Quansheng.
Liu Quansheng smiled half-heartedly and nodded to Liu Yi.
Good son, your ability to climb up the ladder is just like your father and me! Ha ha!
After a while, a large basket of candied jujube mantou was cooked by the two cowgirls. It looked steaming hot and smelled fragrant. Later, steamed shrimp, fried wild rice, wild rice soup, seabass and other rare winter dishes were temporarily invited to Wangnan. Chef Lou served them one by one. The aroma of the dusty Dukang floated silently, along with the two main dishes of boiled fish and steamed lamb. The dishes were all ready for the banquet.
As soon as everyone sat down, Liu Quansheng stood up. He chuckled smartly and said, "Yier, before the banquet begins, I have a gift. Your adoptive father should know that he will give it to you today!"
Ask for help after drinking, talk to people while drinking, and add joy to others before drinking.
After listening to Liu Quansheng's words, Ying Zhi pursed his lips and was very stubborn. He shook his hands and refused deliberately, "I don't have any gifts from this county governor. You Liu Quansheng can't talk nonsense. It's very bad to make promises casually." .”
"Hahaha!"
Liu Quansheng left the table happily, stood lightly behind Ying Zhi, rubbed his shoulders, and said, "You should know, you should know. Ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the former Xiaohuangmen has become the leader of the government. A high-ranking official in the county. Nature is easy to change but hard to change. Who would have thought that your temperament is still so 'little family'! Look, even this pair of catfish Hu'er look so petite and dainty, hahaha."
Faced with Liu Quansheng's teasing, except for those Huaxing officials who forcibly suppressed their laughter, the rest burst into laughter and couldn't help laughing.
"Go, go, go!" Ying Zhi pretended to be angry and said angrily, "You two, one is a traitor, the other is a slippery one, neither of you is good!"
"Haha! Yi'er is your adopted son!" Liu Quansheng pointed at Liu Yi, then pointed at Ying Zhi, and asked Liu Yi, "Is it you two that County Sheriff Ying is talking about?"
Ying Zhi immediately retorted loudly, "You are the guy who climbed up along the pole, who said you want to accept him as your master?"
"But Magistrate Ying didn't say he wouldn't accept it, right? Right? When I just said to Yi'er the words 'the foster father should know', didn't Lord Ying give a very straightforward answer?"
Liu Quansheng smiled and twirled Ying Zhi's mustache. Now, the mustache looked more like the slender whiskers of a catfish. Ying Zhi's slight movements were like a catfish swinging around.
Faced with Liu Quansheng's clever tongue, Ying Zhi hesitated and was speechless for a moment.
Seeing Ying Zhi being so stupid, even the officials in Huaxing couldn't help it, they all covered their faces and laughed.
"alright!"
Ying Chengniang, who has a gentle personality, came over, took Liu Yi's hand, and whispered softly, "What a smart boy! He will definitely be a good material for governing the country and ensuring peace in the future."
Liu Yi was too smart, so he bowed his head and said, "My child, Liu Yi, meet my adoptive mother."
"Hey..." Ying Chengniang responded gently, and helped Liu Yi up with her free hand. Her eyes turned red, and she seemed to be moved by the scene, thinking of her son Ying Cheng who was practicing alone in the Lingyuan Mountains.
Upon seeing this, Ying Zhi muttered and took out a thin roll of paper with black edges and red background from his sleeve.
Afterwards, Ying Zhiwu stood up, straightened his clothes, and looked at Liu Yi solemnly, "His Majesty's edict is here, and Liu Yi will take it."
Liu Yi was shocked, clenched his fists, and hurriedly knelt down to greet the order. Everyone followed, and only Ying Zhi was left standing in the entire hall.
You should carefully unfold the thin scroll, and a red Chinese character written in regular script is displayed on the back of the thin scroll. The "Han" character has two splendid golden dragons sewn with gold thread, which is very majestic.
Ying Zhi cleared his throat, straightened his back, and read aloud, "On the seventh day of the tenth month of the seventeenth year of Tianyuan, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty issued an edict: God favors the emperor's imperial edict. I have heard that the people are the foundation of the country, and the foundation is solid and peaceful. Tianye County Humbly, the foundation of a strong country is that if the people work in the fields, the people will be prosperous. If the people are prosperous, the government will be prosperous. If the government is prosperous, the country will be prosperous. Therefore, the country sets up systems and establishes fields to support the people's livelihood. Liu Yi, the order of Pingtian, has few virtues, talents and intelligence. I am not lazy, and I am running to promote the essence of the "May Civil Order". I feel very comforted. In order to cope with the unexpected, I have specially approved the formation of the Pingtian Army. I will prepare troops to prepare for it. I will be the general of Pingtian, and I will travel to the five counties with the imperial edict. Specially, Liu Yi issued the edict to Pingtian, and Zhou followed it, followed it, and performed it well."
After hearing this, Liu Yi, who was kneeling on the ground, was filled with excitement. With this edict, he would have military power, he could recruit soldiers, form his own force, and recruit talents to defend the people of Li. The troops and horses are strong to defeat the unfaithful and conquer the great cause.
The significance of this edict is extraordinary!
The tip of Liu Yi's eyebrows was slightly raised, and the delicate fingertips trembled slightly in the palm of his hand. He took the edict tremblingly, unfolded it and looked at it carefully. The eight big red characters of "I have been ordered by heaven, and I will live long and prosperous" came into view. Liu Yi was like dreaming. His ordinary emotions finally returned to reality. He immediately turned his head and looked at Liu Quansheng affectionately, wanting to say something.
I know my son better than my father. The ancients never deceived me!
My father actually explained everything about Hirata's pain points and difficulties as well as my own thoughts. In the final analysis, I only played a decisive role in Hirata's incident. It was my father who truly grasped the general trend and strategized!
"I dare not disobey the order, so I have to accept the title. It's just that I, Kusano, don't understand the court's laws. If Hirata makes any mistakes, please forgive me." Before everyone could react, Liu Yi immediately knelt down on the ground and said sonorously and forcefully, "General Pingtian Liu Yi, accept the imperial edict."
When everyone thought about it, they were immediately relieved and cast admiring glances at Liu Yi.
The words just now were naturally meant for the ubiquitous Changshui Guard, who would naturally convey these words to Heaven. This undoubtedly left a way out for Liu Yi himself. Even if Pingtian failed in the future, today If you have spoken in advance, Your Majesty will be given a lighter punishment.
After getting up, Xia Qing shook her big head and laughed loudly, "Whatever you thought of, your two good fathers helped you think of it! What a General Hirata, haha, the best swords in the world are indeed sharpened faster and faster! Boy , there is no turning back for you! Come on."
"I still have to rely on the help of my uncles and brothers and sergeants!"
Liu Yi grinned, raised his wine and said boldly, "We have entered the world as an army to send blessings to the elders of the five counties. Yi, I will do my duty. Today, we will not let go of our commitment to the mountains. He will make a promise to bring peace to the world! Do it!"
Liu Yi drank it all in one gulp, and the banquet was officially opened!
An edict is worth a thousand words!
Liu Yi just drinks and doesn’t need to say anything else!
Some people died, but not completely...
