Chapter 360: The Feast of Nations (2)

The ceremonial officer in charge of the process knelt down in front of Li Si and waited for the dispatch, Li Si looked around, and then slowly raised his hand towards the ceremonial official, and said loudly, "Open the feast!"

When the ceremonial officer heard this, he immediately kowtowed, stood up, and shouted at the top of his voice, "Your Majesty has a decree, and the banquet will be held immediately—"

As soon as the order was conveyed, the waiters who had been waiting for a long time immediately began to get busy, although the lords of the country present were big and small, but they were all the masters of a country, so Li Si treated everyone equally, and the dishes on the table were the same.

You must know that this is the banquet of all nations with the highest specifications in the Tang Dynasty, and many of the cherished dishes have never been seen in many small countries in their lives, but even so, Li Si still chooses to treat everyone equally, which not only shows that he hopes to be recognized by everyone, but also lowers his posture and gives everyone an equal opportunity to get along.

At the banquet, Mu Ru Changhai ate very slowly, in fact, not only him, but the other lords also chewed and tasted this meal slowly, many people knew that once they stood in the wrong line in the next negotiation, it was very likely that it would be their last meal!

Li Si's eating speed is not fast or slow, but he eats extremely carefully, everyone has to become him knows that everyone is glancing at him with their spare eyes, he is not in a hurry, he knows that as long as he is not in a hurry, someone will definitely be in a hurry.

Soon there were many people who couldn't sit still, Li Si knew how to measure things, he wrote down the faces, and finally picked up the golden silk handkerchief on the side and wiped his mouth, everyone immediately stopped when they saw this, Li Si had already stopped, they didn't dare to continue to move chopsticks, since you are in this game, whoever is the first bird will not end well!

After eating the banquet, Li Si stretched lazily, and then threw a smile at Mu Ru Changhai, who bowed slightly, his eyes full of smiles.

Li Si slowly stood up, all the lords of the country stood up, originally they thought that Li Si was going to talk to them about sending troops, but who knew that Li Si actually smiled and waved his hand at everyone, and said with a smile, "You don't have to be nervous, I have a little bit of a suspension, just sit down." ”

After that, Li Si really stepped off the dragon chair alone, and walked around everyone in a big circle, and many lords looked at the new emperor suspiciously, really not understanding what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.

After smiling and walking around, Li Si finally stopped beside Mu Ru Changhai, who got up and gave Li Si a slight salute, Li Si smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "The Southern Kingdom sent its most elite Yama army to the battlefield of the Ten Thousand Beasts Forest to support, this kindness, I remember it for the people of the Tang Dynasty!"

Mu Ru Changhai bowed down and said, "Your Majesty is serious, these are what those of us who are courtiers should do, the beast clan is eyeing the border, as the lord of the southern country of the human race, I naturally have to do my part." ”

As he spoke, Mu Ru Changhai raised his head and said in a deep voice, "I have already sent the Yama army to the battlefield of the Ten Thousand Beast Forest, and the other troops are also reorganizing the army at this time, and the 100,000 troops of my southern country are all sent by Your Majesty!"

When Mu Ru Changhai said this, the pupils of the Qi State Lord who was sitting opposite him shrank suddenly, 100,000 troops? He has been fighting with the South for so many years, so he naturally knows what the 100,000 army means to the South Kingdom, and that is almost all the family resources of the South Kingdom! If these 100,000 troops are the main battle camps of the South Kingdom, then the South Country is afraid that there is really nothing left.

Li Si held Mu Ruchanghai's hand with a solemn face, and said word by word, "All the soldiers in the southern country are the heroes of our human race, and I will definitely not treat them badly!"

"Mu Ruchanghai, you don't need my help, I will do my best to do it for you!"

Hearing this, Mu Ru Changhai slowly let go of Li Si's hand, and his gaze naturally fell on the Lord of Qi State.

"The minister does have one more thing to ask your majesty for. As soon as Mu Ru Changhai said this, the lord of Qi immediately became nervous, in fact, it was needless to say that he also knew what Mu Ru Changhai was going to say, the middle-aged man with gray hair frowned, as if he was thinking about the next countermeasures.

"Everyone here should be aware of the grievances between my southern country and the Qi country, the 100,000 army is almost all the strength of my southern country, and now my southern warriors are about to go to the front line to resist the beast clan, if the Qi country stabs us in the back at this time, I'm afraid my southern country will not have any power to fight back......"

What Mu Ru Changhai said is not an exaggeration at all, if Qi State does not send troops, then he will never be able to sleep steadily, so the most important premise for him to send troops is for Qi State to send troops with him, aren't you hostile to me? Now that we have sent troops, no one has any available troops in their hands, Mu Ru Changhai is naturally relieved.

When the lord of the Qi country heard this, he immediately stood up and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the minister hereby swears that he will never send troops to the south during the period when the south country resists the beast clan, if there is a violation, my Qi country will be doomed!"

Looking at the Lord of Qi who stood up for the first time, Li Si sighed deeply, "Lord of Qi State, it's not that I don't believe you, do you believe it yourself when you say this?" Or do you ask the Lord of the Southern Kingdom, do you believe it?"

"The soldiers are about to go to the front line to kill the enemy, to ensure that they have no worries is my Li Si's accusation, if they go on the expedition, the former enemy is still eyeing their homeland, I am afraid that even if they go to the battlefield, these soldiers will not be at ease!"

The Lord of Qi took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice, "Then what does Your Majesty think the minister should do to reassure these front-line soldiers?"

"You shouldn't ask Your Majesty that. Mu Ru Changhai sneered and mocked, "Now that the beast army is on the border of the human race, if you feel that you are a person, send troops out to defend against foreign enemies, so that everyone has no troops in their hands, and I can feel at ease, right?"

The lord of Qi scolded Mu Ru Changhai when he heard this, he didn't expect Mu Ru Changhai to be so very, and directly moved out of his family, now he is already a tiger, Li Si and Mu Ru Changhai have already pushed this lord of Qi to the righteousness of the human race, if he doesn't send troops at this time, it won't be something that can be explained in three or two sentences.

"The minister came to Chang'an City this time to discuss this matter with His Majesty. The lord of the Qi State respectfully saluted Li Si and said in a deep voice, "I, the Qi State, have decided to send 30,000 elite soldiers to the aid of the beast clan's battlefield, all of which will be dispatched by Your Majesty!"

"Thirty thousand, ......" Li Si did not express his attitude at the first time, but looked at the other four vassal lords under the throne with some playfulness, and asked softly, "What do you think?"
