Chapter 1382: Take the initiative to show goodwill

I don't know the purpose of Lu Yun inviting him to the banquet, and I don't know whether the Lu clan of Wu County has a friendly or hostile attitude towards Li Qinzai.

Li Qinzai only knows that he can rub a meal, after all, people have just given a heavy gift, and they are so polite to invite guests to drink, so he can't turn his face immediately after receiving the gift.

This son of the Lu family is remarkable in receiving people and things, Li Qinzai has been to a lot of powerful banquets over the years, but it is rare for the host to go out of the city to greet him.

On this point, Li Qinzai already has a slight impression of him, of course, only in the private aspect.

If the Lu clan of Wujun has some conspiracy and makes up his mind to fight against him, the Son of Heaven, then he will turn his face when it is time to turn his face.

A carriage had been prepared by the drawbridge outside the city, and after Lu Yun invited Li Qinzai into the carriage, the group slowly entered the city and headed towards the Assassin's Mansion.

The Thorn History Mansion is located in the middle of Jiangzhou City, in the middle of the east and west cities, the roads in the city are not prosperous, but they are quite clean.

The carriage stopped in front of the Assassin's Mansion, and several middle-aged men in silk shirts were waiting outside the door.

"Xiaguan Jiangzhou assassinated Song Jinshan, met with Li Jungong, met His Royal Highness King Teng, and His Royal Highness King Xun."

Several men behind him also saluted, these people were all officials of the Assassin's Mansion, from Bie Driver to Sima, the highest-ranking officials on the ground in Jiangzhou basically came.

Li Qinzai smiled and stood outside the door of the Assassin's Mansion to greet Song Jinshan, the Jiangzhou Assassin Historian, and Lu Yun next to him covered his mouth and coughed lightly, Song Jinshan hurriedly turned sideways and invited Li Qinzai and the three into the mansion.

The back hall of the Assassin's Mansion was brightly lit, dozens of candlesticks illuminated the hall, and a team of stunning and enchanting women knelt under the corridor of the hall.

Li Qinzai walked into the hall proudly, followed by King Teng and Li Sujie, followed by Lu Yun and Song Jinshan and several officials.

After entering the hall, Li Qinzai sat in the guest seat as a matter of course, and the interesting thing is that it was not Song Jinshan, the assassin, who sat in the host's seat, but Lu Yun.

Li Qinzai quickly glanced at Song Jinshan, and the smile in his eyes grew.

Has this guy not concealed his relationship with the Wu Jun Lu clan anymore?

As Lu Yun clapped his hands, a team of subordinates came to the hall with wine and food, and the beautiful women who were kneeling under the porch just now also entered one after another, dancing in the melodious sound of silk and bamboo in the music class.

Of course, the banquet had to drink, Lu Yun got up first to toast, followed by Song Jinshan, and the officials of the Assassin Mansion.

The atmosphere was lively and noisy for a while, and the guests and hosts in the hall were happy.

The person who just received the heavy gift is still very sensible, Li Qin carried the glass to the wine, did not push it at all, and was already slightly drunk after a round.

At this time, the kabuki also happened to finish dancing, Lu Yun smiled and swept his eyes, and the kabuki bowed and retreated.

Lu Yun got up and toasted Li Qinzai again, and then got to the point.

"Li Jungong and the two highnesses came from afar, in fact, before you left Chang'an City, the Wu Junlu clan already knew the news that Li Jungong had ordered to go to Jiangnan, and they didn't come to meet until today, hoping that Li Jungong and the two highnesses would forgive their sins." Lu Yun smiled and apologized.

Li Qinzai said with a smile: "It's okay, I came out to do some errands on order, and I didn't plan to disturb the Jiangnan Wang clan, come quietly, go quietly, and don't take away a stitch and a thread ......from the Wang clan."

Lu Yun was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

I just received a few heavy gifts from a few large carriages, and now I say that I don't take away a stitch and a thread, and the style of saying one thing and doing one thing in the officialdom is handled by this county prince.

Lu Yun arched his hand and asked with a smile: "I don't know what kind of errand Li Jungong is doing on this trip to Jiangnan, Wu Jun's Lu family is not talented, and he is willing to serve Li Jungong." ”

Li Qinzai sneered, pointed at Lu Yun, and said, "If you want to ask, just say it, you don't have to beat around the bush like this, to be honest, I don't expect you to serve the family, thank God for not blocking me." ”

Lu Yun's smile was a little embarrassed: "Li Jungong is really funny when he speaks......"

Immediately, Lu Yun said cautiously: "I heard that the Duke of Li County went to the south of the Yangtze River, and General Xue Rengui led 20,000 soldiers and horses to accompany him, and he did not separate until Yuezhou,...... Is General Xue leading his troops south also part of the errand? ”

Li Qinzai said calmly: "Oh, General Xue was ordered to go south to train soldiers and horses, play the Yangtze River, and escort me by the way, after all, when I was in Chang'an, I had a little unpleasant trouble with your eight major clans." ”

Lu Yun's smile became drier and drier.

If you don't want to answer, you can not say it, why fool me with this kind of nonsense? This reason can't even be deceived by young children, right?

The 20,000 army went south inexplicably, what kind of exercises and martial arts exercises, do you think I believe it or not?

It is certain that Xue Rengui's 20,000 soldiers and horses must have had other purposes in their southward journey, and it is very likely that they are coming at the eight major wang clans in the south of the Yangtze River, as for whether they want to use force against the wang clan or just deter, it is impossible to judge at present.

This is not Lu Yun's personal conclusion, long before he came to Jiangzhou to see Li Qinzai, the head of the Lu family of Wu County and the elders discussed it for a long time before he came to this conclusion.

Lu Yun originally planned to take advantage of the opportunity of the banquet to knock on Li Qinzai's purpose of going to Jiangnan, but Li Qinzai was not a good person, he was treacherous and cunning like a loach, and there was no truth in his mouth, Lu Yun was really helpless.

Sure enough, today's heavy gifts are like meat buns beating dogs, and the person receiving the gift is a little ignorant......

Li Qinzai smiled very kindly, for some reason, sitting with the person who gave the gift, he always felt that he was very kind, and there was a faint urge to worship him.

"Brother Huai'an came to Jiangzhou, presumably not just to invite me to a banquet, right?" Li Qinzai asked with a smile.

Lu Yun hesitated for a moment and said with a smile: "In Jiangzhou, of course, I admire the demeanor of Li Jungong, and secondly, I ...... Under the order of the head of the family, he expressed his attitude to the prince of Li County. ”

"I'm listening."

Lu Yun's expression was straight, and he said seriously: "The Lu clan of Wu County admires the power of the sky, and I dare not be a little angry, I heard that Li Jungong went to the south of the Yangtze River, and the Lu family of Wu County is willing to take the initiative to express his attitude to Li Jungong......"

"Now that spring sowing is imminent, all the states and counties in the south of the Yangtze River that the Lu clan can influence are willing to use Sancheng fertile land to plant the new grain varieties promoted by His Royal Highness King Teng."

"Wu Jun Lu's attitude, I don't know if Li Jun Gong is satisfied?"

Li Qinzai and King Teng were stunned for a moment, and the two quickly glanced at each other.

Then Li Qinzai's face bloomed with a smile.

It's a bit interesting, I haven't taken the initiative to say anything, the Lu family of Wujun has taken the initiative to show goodwill, it seems that the Jiangnan Wang clan is not monolithic, after all, there is still some awe of the imperial court.

Li Qinzai glanced at King Teng with a smile and said, "When the Zhangren came to Jiangnan to promote new grain varieties, did it go so smoothly? ”

King Teng seemed to understand the intention of Li Qinzai's words, and said lightly: "Since this king went down to the south of the Yangtze River, the officials of all prefectures and counties have pushed and refused, unwilling to plant new grain seeds, and have come up with a lot of reasons, but they have never taken the initiative to express their willingness to plant. ”

Li Qinzai sighed leisurely: "It seems that the son-in-law seems to have a bigger face than the father-in-law......"
