145 Border Victory, Draw Salary from the Bottom of the Cauldron!
Qin Mo didn't know.
It should be said that except for Xia Zu himself, no one knows what his true strength is.
The five masters had guessed through their battle records, and the only thing that was certain was that Xia Zu was a ninth-order S-level awakener.
Qin Mo originally thought that the strength of him and Li Tiangang should be almost the same, but after meeting Xia Xuan yesterday, he had doubts about his idea.
The great housekeepers of the Gaoling Xia clan are all peak S-level, how can Xia Zu be weaker than him?
Therefore, Qin Mo felt that he had most likely touched the level of the Heavenly King.
Of course, until you actually see it, guessing is just speculation, and it's hard to know for sure.
Thinking of this, Qin Mo couldn't help but slowly shake his head and smile.
It's still the same sentence, the soldiers are coming, the water is coming, it does matter what the enemy's strength is, but it doesn't matter much, he just needs to make sure that his strength is steadily improving.
As long as he is given enough time, then everything does not matter.
Every day passes, Qin Mo's strength will have earth-shaking changes, and his advantage is in his ......
The sun gradually set over the mountain, and the boundless night was like a curtain that was being lifted, covering the sky over the imperial capital inch by inch.
The car drove very fast, and at about half past six, Qin Mo and his party came to the destination of this trip...... Lin Yuan.
Lin Garden is located in the northeast corner of Fuyun District, covering an area of not small, about the size of two Li manors, the environment in the park is extremely elegant, it is an absolute upper-class place.
Generally speaking, only the disciples of the five great families were allowed to enter and leave the forest garden, hold banquets in it, and invite guests.
No one else, whether it's royalty or the rest of the top families, has this qualification.
As for the ordinary people living in the imperial capital, the vast majority of them don't even know that there is such a place in the imperial capital, and the huge gap between classes can be seen.
And the reason why Lin Yuan is so arrogant that even the royal family dares to turn away is entirely because of ......
The forest of the forest garden is the forest of the Far Eastern Lin clan.
This is the industry of the five major companies.
At this time, Qin Mo, who got out of the car, stood in place, turned his head slightly, swept his eyes slightly around the manor in front of him, and then stepped in with Li Mou and Li Tiangang.
】
At the door of the manor, there stood elegantly dressed waiters, very politely leading the three into the banquet hall.
The official start time of the night banquet was seven o'clock, and they came half an hour early, but it was just right.
Taking advantage of this effort, Li Mou was ready to take Qin Mo to meet some people with high status.
As for Li Tiangang, as soon as he entered the banquet hall, he took the initiative to separate from the two, and with his identity and status, he naturally didn't need to play any contacts.
The purpose of his trip was mainly to eat, and to see if there were any young girls who were willing to step on the lonely sea with him.
Of course, plump mature women are better.
Qin Mo didn't know what Li Tiangang was thinking in his heart, as soon as he entered the banquet hall, he saw a lot of acquaintances.
For example, Li Mo, Li Yuan, and Chu Tianjiao, the son of the Chu family, although their own realm is not high, they all have special status, so they are also qualified to participate in tonight's night banquet.
Several people also saw Qin Mo at the door, and each nodded at him, which was regarded as a greeting.
Qin Mo smiled back, and then followed Li Mou all the way through the crowd, into the depths of the hall, bypassing the small door from the side, and came to another quieter small hall.
All the utensils in the small hall are the top in the whole Great Qin, and the materials are extremely exquisite.
At this time, there were only four people in the hall, and they were the current heads of the other four families, and they were also the four princes of the Great Qin Empire.
"Ladies and gentlemen, long time no see."
Li Mou put his hands behind his back, smiled on his face, and took the lead in speaking.
Hearing this, the other four people all set their eyes on him, smiled sincerely, and greeted him politely.
Whether or not this smile is true or not, I'm afraid only they know, but it doesn't matter.
Anyway, these five people are all old foxes, one is more than a chicken thief, no matter who is real or fake, no one will be fooled.
Qin Mo stood aside, seeing all this in his eyes, he could be said to know it well.
After Li Mou finished greeting them, he stood sideways, pointed at Qin Mo and smiled:
"Let me introduce you to a few people, this person is ......"
"Who doesn't know the name of the Marquis of Kannai? I don't think I need to introduce it. ”
Before Li Mou could finish his sentence, Fang Guogong, who was sitting on the sofa, suddenly opened his mouth to interrupt him, only to see him look at Qin Mo with a smile and continue:
"I'm an old acquaintance."
When the words landed, the eyes of the other three people in the small hall suddenly became playful.
If Qin Mo is an old acquaintance with the Yan Nannan clan, then what is it with the Qingyang Li clan?
Fang Xiang came up and said a word, and there was a trace of deep meaning in it, which could be said to have dug a small pit for Qin Mo.
Chu Xiong and the others also looked at Qin Mo, ready to see how he would answer next.
If this answer is not good, it is very likely to make him and Qingyang Li have a disagreement.
The Li family has one less genius, and the other four families are happy to see this.
It's just that they mistakenly underestimated the relationship between Qin Mo and Li Mou.
The two of them are not puppets supported by Qin Mo for the Li clan as rumored by the outside world, even if he answers badly today, the Qingyang Li clan will not have any change in attitude.
After all, they knew Qin Mo's true strength.
This kind of peerless genius that is rare through the ages and has unlimited achievements in the future, Qingyang Li's tolerance will be infinite.
Of course, it is impossible for Qin Mo to answer incorrectly.
He is not the kind of stunned young man who has no social experience, where can he not see the pit that Fang wants to dig for him?
For this, I saw him smile and shake his head, and said straight:
"I've only seen it once, and I'm not very familiar with it."
Rumble!
There was a sudden silence in the small hall, and a pin drop could be heard.
Qin Mo's words didn't save Fang Xiang any face, he was almost slapping him in the face.
In an instant, the situation of the right talent turned out to be a 180-degree reversal, and now the focus in the small hall has suddenly become Fang Xiang.
Moreover, everyone's eyes were more playful than Zhi Shicai, and their faces were full of strange colors.
The smile on the corner of Fang Xiang's mouth had already fallen into a stagnancy, and it could be seen with the naked eye that his face was instantly gloomy.
But the old thing is the old thing after all, and other aspects aside, the thickness of this face alone is incomparable.
After a short silence, an extremely sincere smile resurfaced on Fang Xiang's face, as if nothing had happened, he stroked his palms and said:
"It is worthy of being the youngest prince of my Great Qin Empire, if it is really a noble man who forgets things, I am not as good as him."
Guogong?
Qin Mo keenly caught this word, a different color flashed in the depths of his eyes, and he secretly said in his heart:
"Sure enough."
Li Mou, who was standing on the side, noticed the change in his eyes, and then explained:
"Tomorrow morning, after the fall of the Gaoling Xia clan, I will ask Your Majesty again for the title, with the credit you have accumulated in recent times, plus the previous ones, it is enough to promote the position of the prince of the country.
When the time comes, these people in front of you, including me, will be on an equal footing with you. ”
After he said that, the rest of the people in the small hall all smiled and bowed, without the slightest meaning.
Obviously, they had known about this for a long time, and they didn't mind that the Qingyang Li clan had an extra prince of their own faction.
I don't know how much interest is exchanged, and the Li family must have given up a considerable piece of the cake before the other four families nodded in exchange.
Qin Mo knew this from the bottom of his heart, and he knew that this should be the little gift that Li Mou was talking about.
However, he was not overjoyed by this, and remained the same as usual.
He had known about the promotion of the national prince for a long time, and there was nothing surprising.
And it doesn't matter if the country is not a public one.
Qin Mo just wanted to live the life he wanted, nothing more.
And when everyone saw his posture, they couldn't help but raise their evaluation of him by one point in their hearts.
This kind of mind alone is not something that ordinary people can have.
With this alone, whether Qin Mo is a puppet supported by the Li family or not, his future achievements will definitely not be small.
Liu Guogong and Lin Guogong, who met him for the first time, thought so in their hearts, and couldn't help but nod secretly.
They had the same initial feeling as Fang Xiang and Chu Xiong, and there was basically no difference.
And most importantly, Qin Mo is only twenty-three years old this year, and his young age can be said to be very excessive.
At such an age, he has already achieved the rank of Guogong, and he still has the powerful strength of the third order, which is higher than the five people here combined.
It's hard to imagine how far Qin Mo will grow in the future.
A few people chatted like this in the small hall for more than twenty minutes, and in addition to Qin Mo's affairs, there were some other cakes to share.
This kind of carving-up had actually been carried out a few days ago, but the cake was too big, and everyone wanted to eat more, so it was not something that could be discussed in a day or two.
However, after going on for so many days, tonight has finally come to an end, and most of the things have been decided.
Li Mou looked at the time, then raised the red wine glass in his hand, looked around at everyone, and said with a smile:
"Ladies and gentlemen, now it's just tomorrow morning, the Gaoling Xia clan has completely collapsed, let's enjoy tonight's celebration banquet to the fullest."
"We old guys are already behind the times, and Qin Guogong is the real protagonist tonight." Chu Xiong took over the conversation and said with a smile.
Qin Mo didn't say anything, just smiled back.
Should I say it or not, he is too lazy to put these people here and make a mistake.
He has already made a decision, and he will get together with Chu Tianjiao and Li Yuan later, and the others will forget it.
In this way, everyone raised their glasses and touched them in the void, drank them separately, and then got up and walked outside.
However, they had just taken a step when suddenly a middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper hurriedly entered the small hall, he was the person in charge of Lin Yuan, a member of the Far Eastern Lin family.
After this person came in, he did not salute and say hello, but frowned tightly, and said quickly:
"Ladies and gentlemen, news suddenly came from the Shicai border that the champion Hou Xiazu broke into the enemy formation alone, and with one enemy of ten thousand, he killed the three ninth-order S-level awakened people of the Qi Kingdom in front of the formation.
The army of Qi was leaderless, and in desperation, he had to withdraw his troops in a big way, and the champion Hou Chengsheng pursued, led the soldiers of our Great Qin Empire to conquer the lost territory, and rebuilt the border defense line......"
What he said later, everyone didn't care anymore.
The news mentioned above alone is shocking enough!
After conquering the lost territory, Qi withdrew its troops, and Xia Zu was one enemy and three ......
What is it??
This is a military feat! It is an indelible achievement!
Which of the few people present was not extremely aware of the situation? Who doesn't have a keen sense of smell?
When they heard the news, they thought about what would happen next.
Li Mou's faces instantly became extremely ugly, and the same thought surged in their hearts.
"Now, it's broken......"
None of them needed to verify the authenticity of the matter, as evidenced by the constant ringing of the phone ringing in their pockets like a talisman.
Li Mou took a deep breath, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, opened the screen and saw that it was indeed a call from the Council of Elders.
The same is true for the rest of the people.
The abrupt end of the border war was like a meteorite falling from the sky, rudely and brutally disrupting all the layouts of the five major families.
At such a time, no one has the heart to go to any more banquets, and the so-called celebration is more like a joke.
"Qin Mo, you go out and deal with it first." Li Mou hurriedly said to him.
Afterwards, the few of them went to different places, answered the phone in their hands, and prepared to discuss with the Council of Elders.
Just a few seconds later, only Lin Yuan's housekeeper and Qin Mo were left in the small hall.
The housekeeper bowed slightly to Qin Mo, and then quietly retreated from the small hall.
Qin Mo watched in the direction where several people left, and at the same time spread out the holographic vision, covering the entire forest garden.
The content of the call between the five families and the Council of Elders reached his ears very clearly.
The super brain was running rapidly, and Qin Mo was directly single-minded.
He narrowed his eyes, listening to the information of Li Mou and the others, and at the same time groaned secretly in his heart.
"Conquer the lost ground, this is to cover up the ...... with merit"
Qin Mo raised the corners of his mouth and showed an extremely sarcastic smile.
You must know that the five major families have actually hoarded a considerable part of their strength on the border between the two countries.
These people can not only be used to defend against the Qi State, but also their eyes and ears, and the Elders' Council will know any news on the border as quickly as possible.
But now, it can be seen from the posture of Li Mou and the others that the Council of Elders is also confused.
For Xia Zu's trick, they didn't have any preparations.
In other words, the news of the border victory has already reached the imperial capital.
So, the public opinion guidance carefully guided by the previous five masters......
It seems that all the work done is going to be wasted.
After all, a person who did his best to successfully subdue the lost territory for the Great Qin Empire and beheaded many generals of the Qi Kingdom would really be a traitor?
