Chapter 457 (1/2)

As the night fell, the wind and snow became heavier and heavier, and the cold north wind swept across the sky, tearing the whole world apart.

At this time, outside the official hall of Zhenjiang City, the lights were bright.

A pile of red campfires was burning, dispelling most of the cold of the night. The gentry and noble families in more than 100 famous towns of Jiangcheng had been waiting outside for a long time, waiting for the news that they would be called in.

These gentry are not fools.

Li Yuanqing used Cao Er Niang to inform them of the banquet in the evening. To a large extent, it has shown the sincerity of the Ming army. Otherwise, it would not be Cao erniang's servants, but the soldiers in full armed.

”Lao Wang, what a surprise. The Ming army was able to conquer Zhenjiang city again. And it only took one night. Well, this Li Yuanqing is really a character. ”

In a corner of the crowd, a thin, white haired old man whispered to a chubby middle-aged man.

Fat old Wang's face was very white, and he always had a smile like Maitreya Buddha. When he heard this, he quickly looked around and found that no one was paying attention to them. Then he lowered his voice and almost said, ”brother Qi, be careful. The Tartars are so powerful that we don't know whether the Ming army can hold Zhenjiang or not

Old Qi, a thin old man, nodded in deep thought, ”Lao Wang, I'm also worried about this. It's said that Mao Wenlong is here, too. ”

Fat old Wang suddenly sneered, ”hum. Mao's name is just a bully. He has already pit our people in Zhenjiang once, but he wants to pit us again? ”

Lao Qi shook his head slightly. ”Lao Wang, you can't say that. At the beginning, Mao Wenlong also had difficulties. Ah. It's all done by these bloody Tartars. ”

Lao Wang nodded, but he did not answer.

Lao Qi knew that Lao Wang still had a deep connection with Mao Wenlong, so he changed the topic and said, ”Lao Wang, what's the intention of Mao Wenlong and Li Yuanqing asking us to come here this time?”

Lao Wang thought for a moment and then suddenly sneered, ”what else can I do for you? Wool comes from sheep. No wonder it's up to us to help. Maybe, Li Yuanqing, who is young and vigorous, is more ruthless than Mao Wenlong. ”

Just as old Qi was about to open his mouth, the door of the official hall was opened. A middle-aged Eunuch in a red eunuch's robe, with a smile on his face, came out with a smile under the guard of dozens of tall soldiers. It was Wei who did not think well and neglected the guests. I also hope that all members of the Council and the old men will have a deep understanding of each other. Somebody. Please, please, and invite all the members and gentlemen to come in and have a cup of hot tea to warm up

”Ladies and gentlemen, please!”

The relatives and soldiers hastened to serve around, straightened up and respectfully welcomed the gentry into the official hall.

The gentry here have all their eyes.

Looking at Wei Liang's official robes, they all realized that today's standard is a little scary. The eunuchs and the guards came out to meet

This, this is to kill them hard in the neck?

Someone in front of me said with a smile, ”father-in-law, you are really killing me. After you, father-in-law. ”

Wei Liang, however, said with a smile: ”all the members and the master are noble people. I'm so happy to give someone face to me. Ladies and gentlemen, please

Wei Liang had already made a full gesture. How could the gentry in front of him resist?

Soon, some people could not resist Wei Liang's power and began to enter.

Not far behind, old Qi lowered his voice and said, ”the old eunuch's surname is Wei. Can't it be that he is...”

Lao Wang was also surprised. He had heard that there was a supervisor named Wei in Changsheng Island, but he didn't know the details. At this time, the Duke of Wei actually came to meet them in person

For a moment, Lao Wang said, ”Lao Qi, there is something wrong with this today. We must be more careful. ”

Lao Qi nodded, ”that's right. We'll have to work together. ”

………

In the official hall, a dozen grand banquets have been arranged.

Zhenjiang city was the core territory of the later Jin Dynasty. To a large extent, the old slaves also managed Zhenjiang with painstaking efforts.

But Li Yuanqing's sudden destruction of the city, Daishan and Amin were unprepared and retreated in a hurry, which also made a lot of materials and goods in Zhenjiang City fall into the hands of the Ming army in vain.

Mao Wenlong and Li Yuanqing have a strong foundation with abundant materials. Each table has more than 20 dishes, flying in the sky, climbing on the ground, swimming in the water, all of which are of high standard.

Li Yuanqing was not familiar with these gentry, mainly because his status was not enough when he was in Zhenjiang city.

However, Mao Wenlong had many acquaintances, and soon began to exchange greetings with others.

With the help of Wei Liang, Zhang Qiliang and Duke Ma, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became lively.

Zhang Qiliang and Duke Ma personally led the people to take their seats, while Wei Liang stood in the middle with Mao Wenlong and called on them.Looking at Wei Liang in the middle of the high spirited, Ma Gonggong's eyes flashed a touch of unspeakable sadness.

Once upon a time, Wei Liang was not as good as a dog in front of him. He even disdained to look at Wei Liang.

However, at this time, Wei Liang's ”next to” Li Yuanqing. Although his rank is not as high as that of him for the time being, he has become the number one supervisor in the Liao area.

”Damn it! People are more than people. It's really irritating. ” Mr. Ma spat in his heart.

But the situation is better than people.

This time, Li Yuanqing conquered Zhenjiang with his own strength. It must be that Wei Liang, an old dog, wants to go to a higher level.

Even if Mr. Ma is not happy, he is unable to change the reality.

Li Yuanqing has already reached the zenith of the sun, and even faintly has overthrew Mao Wenlong. He can only think of a way to try to mix with Li Yuanqing and get some soup to drink, so that he will not be hungry.

”Master Ma, you can arrange for these masters here.”
