Chapter 580 [Night Banquet](2/2)
, which is a bit stronger than the imperial general like himself who is empty-handed but has no military power.
This Gaocha is probably the elder in the Arpai family, and he probably plays a role like the patriarch.
So after all...he is also his political enemy.
Du Wei sneered in his heart. He returned the gift to Gao Cha politely. Gao Cha didn't know why he came to get close to Du Wei, but he seemed to be good friends and exchanged a few words. On the surface, he was in good spirits.
He doesn't look like a political enemy at all.
However, the Finance Minister gave a kind reminder: "After the New Year, Mr. Gaucha will probably take office as Governor of Lille."
Governor of Lille?
When Du Wei heard this, he couldn't help but frown.
The province of Lille is adjacent to the province of Côte where the Rollin Plain is located, but it is a neighbor of the territory of the Rollins. Over the years, most of the governors of the province of Lille have been wealthy families who have good relations with the Rollins. Otherwise,
.We live next to each other. If they are hostile, there will be a lot of trouble on weekdays.
For Du Wei, the Province of Lille is even more important: the Province of Lille is a large province facing the sea in the southeast of the Luo Lin family. There are several large port cities in the south of the empire. Before, the Province of Lille was of great significance.
, the maritime fleet under Du Wei, whether it is trade in Nanyang or other businesses, enters and exits through several ports in the province of Lille. Even the fleet under Du Wei is officially established in a port city in the province of Lille.
They settled down and bought a suitable seaport as a base.
But now... the governor of the province of Lille has been replaced by a political enemy leader who is against him...

Thinking of this, Du Wei's eyebrows twisted involuntarily.
This high-ranking officer was quite elegant, and his behavior showed everyone's style. Every move he made seemed to be the style of a wealthy family.
But at this time, the ceremony call finally sounded, and it was the royal family members who arrived.
Different from previous years, at this year's dinner, both Prince Chen and the new Emperor Charlie were dressed in grand attire. Prince Chen personally led his son into the venue. Charlie was wearing a crown, but... the scepter that symbolized imperial power, but
It is in the hand of Prince Chen.
The venue was simple and solemn. When Prince Chen stepped onto the throne at the front, he smiled and announced in a pleasant voice: "Today's dinner includes a fine gift from General Rostock on the northern front.
New Year's gift, this was just delivered by a fast horse from the north this afternoon."
As he spoke, he took a red leather package from the attendant next to him, symbolizing an urgent military situation.
"Good news!"
Prince Chen announced in an amplified voice filled with joy.
But when Du Wei heard this, he couldn't help but frown deeply...
Good news? Hmm...that's weird!
Du Wei's fingers on the armrest of the wheelchair tightened involuntarily. He thought of a document sent by General Andre from the north two days ago, and a secret letter written by the fat man Longbottom in the north to him.
