Chapter 568: State Banquet
The envoy of the Qi State arrived earlier than Gongzi Shi thought. With him was the document of the peace and the tribute of the first year. Although Qi is not rich in food resources, it is much richer than Dayong in terms of minerals and gemstones.
Then, after many years, Gongzishi finally met the people of Liangcheng.
"Your Highness. After the envoy saw Childe's life, he knelt down directly in front of Childe's world. He was already Da Qi's last hope.
Gongzishi looked at this messenger and had too many things to say, but the more he did this, the more he couldn't say anything.
The state banquet was set for the evening, and the venue was set in the palace. For the first time since becoming a captive, Gongzi Shizi attended in full costume, wearing the prince's uniform brought by the envoy. Yes, he is now a prince.
The civil war of Qi ended with the defeat of Gongziye. A rebellious prince cannot be a prince.
Gongzishi wondered why the people of Yongguo would relax their vigilance so simply, not only allowing themselves to meet the messenger of Dayong in advance, but also allowing themselves to change into the royal clothes of Qi Kingdom. Have they forgotten what they did in Dayong in the first place?
It wasn't until he saw someone at the banquet that Gongzishi knew that he was thinking too simply.
The state banquet is the highest level of banquet, although the Qi country is here to surrender, but no matter how you surrender, people are also a country, and snubbing a country, as a ceremonial state, Dayong, can't do it at all.
Therefore, half of the civil and military officials showed up at the banquet.
What surprised Gongzishi was those few people who were not officials.
At the most important seat of the banquet, three people were seated. The woman with the silver mask was Tang Yu, the woman Tang Yu looked at with a gentle face, Gongzi Shi also knew, and her name was Wen Wan. Gongzishi knew that Li Jia's group of people had a very good personal relationship with His Majesty. However, no matter how good this personal relationship is, how can these people sit at the state banquet, they are not officials at all.
When Gongzi Shi was surprised, the envoys of Qi who sat at the head of Gongzi's world were shocked.
The envoys of the Qi State didn't recognize Wen Wan or Tang Yu, but they all recognized the young man sitting on Wen Wan's other side. If it weren't for this person's help, how could they suppress Gongziye's rebellion without much effort? Countless supplies were all sold to Qi Guo by this person.
Lin Xiaosi seemed to feel that someone was staring at him, holding a wine cup, and raising a glass in the direction of the envoys of the Qi State.
The envoy wanted to raise a glass in return, but his hands were so shaky that he couldn't even hold the cup. Gongzi Shi naturally noticed this, frowned, and asked in a low voice.
"That, that person, yes, it's Lin Gongzi. ”
A diplomatic envoy who can't even speak well at a state banquet in another country is very disappointed. There are too many people surnamed Lin in Dayong, you say that this surname is Lin, how does Gongzishi know who it is?
However, looking at his seat and attitude towards the gentle Tang Yu, it can be seen that this person is also Li Jia's person. Gongzishi had a special headache, he used to think that Li Jia was not ordinary, and his forces were not ordinary, but he couldn't find relevant evidence. It's hard to know that there is a wolf guard, but it turns out that the wolf guard doesn't seem to have all the hole cards.
"Lin Gongzi is the richest businessman in Daqi. It took a while for the envoy to find his voice: "There are two hundred and fourteen tribes in Daqi, and each tribe has dealings with Lin Gongzi. ”
The envoy has already said very tactfully, to be precise, now the two hundred and fourteen tribes of Daqi are basically serving this Lin Gongzi. The food was purchased from Lin Gongzi, and the cattle and sheep skins and furs, and even mineral gems were sold through Lin Gongzi.
Gongzishi's brows furrowed instantly.
The ministers are frightened like this, how can there be any dealings that can be described. Thinking about the relationship between Daqi and Yongguo and Li Jia's usual methods, Gongzishi knows what kind of existence this Lin Gongzi is.
No wonder, Li Jia threatened himself that he would destroy the Qi State. If Xu Huan hadn't gone to see him on Chinese New Year's Eve, Gongzi Shi would still be holding the luck that the wolf guard in Li Jia's hand had died.
It turned out that when people destroyed the Qi State, there was no need to send troops at all, and the soldiers were bloodless, which was his means.
In the second half of the state banquet, the scope of Gongzishi's activities is not limited to his own seat. His first target is Lin Xiaosi, who is also not on the role.
"Young Master Lin. Gongzishi directly blocked in front of Lin Xiaosi.
The appearance of this young man was extremely inconspicuous, and he obviously couldn't find it when he fell into the crowd. However, in the mouths of the envoys, most of what Gongzishi heard was the terrifying growth speed of this young man. Like a template, nothing can limit the growth of his business empire.
That's right, at this time, Gongzishi subconsciously compared Lin Xiaosi's business development to an empire.
In fact, imagine that he did create an empire, at least, now most of the people of Daqi live on him or work for him. And the royal family of Daqi is simply a joke.
His Royal Highness said this, Lin didn't dare to take it. Lin Xiaosi hugged his fists very politely, but his waist has always been straight, if it weren't for the fact that the expression on his face was cautious and not humble or arrogant, Gongzi Shidu would almost think that the other party looked down on him.
"It turns out that Lin Gongzi is Daqi's person. The next sentence of the childe world directly pointed out the identity of Lin Xiaosi.
The envoy who followed the childe world tightened his hand suddenly, the last time he saw the childe, the childe was still a teenager, but that young man was wise and close to the demon, but the one in front of him, as soon as he came up, he was outspoken, and the memory of the childe world was different.
However, Lin Xiaosi felt that such a son-in-law confessed a lot, and habitually showed a signature smile: "Lin never said that he was not a person from Dayong." ”
Qi is different from Dayong, every time Qi and Dayong rub, they will snatch away some of Dayong's people, mixed blood, it is not a rare thing in Qi country. Gongzi Shi is such a mixed race, and Xu Huan is also a mixed race. Some are of mixed race and have the appearance of Qi people, while others have the appearance of Dayong people.
There are even people who, even if they have the identity of Qi Guo, prefer to let others call themselves Dayong's name, the most recent example is Xu Huan. Therefore, when Lin Xiaosi was active in Qi Kingdom, few people thought that this ordinary person who could not be found if he fell into the crowd was actually a spy of Yong Guoming.
Gongzishi looked at Lin Xiaosi's gaze much more solemnly, while the envoys behind him wanted to vomit blood.
"What is Li Jia's purpose?"
"What purpose?" Lin Xiaosi and Hengqing don't have much intersection, why don't he know what Hengqing's purpose is.
"The purpose of letting you go to Qi Country. Childe added.
"I didn't go to Qi Country at Mr. Li's indication. Lin Xiaosi glanced back at Wen Wan and saw her nodding before he continued: "When I went to Qi Kingdom, it was my master who made a bet with my father that as long as he could control the business of Qi Kingdom, his father would have to marry his master." ”
Therefore, last spring, Tang Yu married Wen Wan and made up ten miles of red.
Childe wanted to vomit blood.
