Chapter 179 Borrowing wine to make trouble

King Li would not have thought that several of his appointments would arouse the resentment of a Zhennan Army general who came from a small border general family far away in the Southern Wilderness border.

He would never have thought that this little side general would hinder his big taboo.

Perhaps even if King Li really knew it, because of his several appointments as commander-in-chief, a small side general had some bad ideas.

But he probably won't change his mind because of this. After all, in the distribution of power in the past, a young general born into a small family of generals, a general without even a name, is really insignificant. He can even be used as a chess piece.

His qualifications are not enough, he is the real Ronaldinho.

There was a reason why King Li appointed Shangguan Wenhui as the commander of the additional troops this time, and after taking office, he served as the deputy general of the Southern Conquest Army, which he had high hopes for.

Although King Li's queen was from the Shangguan family, this was not enough for him to treat Shangguan Wenhui differently. In fact, because King Li's authority was extremely strong, he naturally gave some of the former ones to the queen.

All rights were given to King Li.

Therefore, the current queen has shrunk in power compared to the queens in the past.

Of course, in some aspects, it still has traditional authority, but overall, it is still a form where the king is strong and the queen is weak. Therefore, when appointing Shangguan Wang Hui, there is no need to consider the queen's thoughts.

The Shangguan family is one of the eight great families in the imperial court, also one of the so-called four great military families.

The eight great civil and military families, as early as the founding of the Li Kingdom, worked with the first King Li to create this country. They can be regarded as one of the deep-rooted and most established families.

No matter how you think about the foundation it possesses, it is impossible to overestimate it.

When the first emperor founded the country, the eight great families, namely the four great literary families and the four great martial arts families, were collectively known as the Eight Pillar States in the court.

Later, it was at the hands of the first Li Wang that he used a series of tricks to disintegrate the eight pillar kingdoms and retreat into the eight major families.

Their power in the court has shrunk, but over the past ten thousand years, the eight great families have remained standing. It can be said that they are deeply rooted and are truly big trees.

The Shangguan family, the Nangong family, the Yang family, and the Song family are the four great martial arts families.

Among them, the Shangguan family is well deserved to be the first family.

This was the main reason why King Li appointed him as the deputy general of the Southern Conquest Army.

Because of the strength of King Li, Li State integrated various forces, so the domestic changes were great.

Ordinary people may not feel it deeply enough, but in the upper echelons of the Li Kingdom, the changes have been drastic, so all the major families have to come forward to compete for power, especially military command.

Of course, the Shangguan family didn’t mean that King Li was here.

He just watched as he played that little trick.

At the same time, this is also a courtesy. In other words, King Li extended an olive branch to the Shangguan family and expressed to the Shangguan family that I regard you as one of my own. What about you? Do you need to repay me?

King Li was trying to divide the four major martial arts families. As far as King Li was concerned, if he could win over the Shangguan family, which ranked first among the martial arts families, to his side, it would be very beneficial for him to govern these various forces.

There are so many reasons why Shangguan Wenhui served as the deputy general of the Southern Conquest Army this time.

As for what the Shangguan family is thinking deep down, it is naturally not clear for the time being. The details will depend on future performance.

The general's residence was a joyful one. Under the arrangement of Princess Changle, these people all looked very enthusiastic. Even Zuo Qing, an official who seemed to be less humane than usual, told a few jokes and chatted with Shangguan.

Wen Hui said hello and chatted for a while.

This is actually because the Shangguan family is indeed the well-deserved first family in the past.

No matter what their motives are, when Shangguan Wenhui has just arrived and doesn't know what's going on, they want to show the most basic courtesy and hope to build a little friendship with him.

Because looking at this, maybe Shangguan Wenhui will be another thick thigh after Princess Changle and Luo Ping, or a thick thigh with a bright red root.

No matter who Shangguan Wenhui came up to toast him, he always smiled and had a gentle expression, not at all the arrogant look of a member of aristocratic family.

There is no such thing as the ordinary children from aristocratic families who may appear to be polite on the surface, but actually reject you from thousands of miles away.

Shangguan Wenhui expresses a very natural temperament and is born with good appearance and demeanor.

In this way, the atmosphere of the entire banquet was very good, and everyone seemed very friendly to each other, except for one person who seemed to be an exception, and that was Ray-Ban.

Ray-Ban was indeed present, and at first he managed to smile and greeted Yang Jie and others.

When the banquet officially started, Ray-Ban ran to the corner and drank alone.

As the banquet progressed, the more wine Ray-Ban drank, the more livid his face became, and he looked very ugly.

"Isn't this General Lei? Why are you drinking alone? Come on, let's have a drink."

It was Li Tianxing who came over with the wine glass. He looked completely different from Li Tianxing who had grown three heads and six arms through practicing martial arts. He seemed to be back to his normal appearance, and he didn't use any black robe to cover it up. He looked just like Li Tianxing.

They look exactly like normal people, except they look a little pale and seem tired.

So many people joked with him, saying that Lord Li

You have to pay attention to your health, don't play too crazy with the city lord's wife, and Ni Tianxing also made various smiles to show that he must listen to the instructions and pay attention to his health.

Li Tianxing usually dealt with Lei-Ban a lot. In the past, when Lei-Ban, Zuo Qing, Tong and Fatty were in charge of the Nancheng town, they would always invite Li Tianxing and the four of them would share a table.

Although Li Tianxing's own presence is not strong, he and Ray-Ban can be considered old friends, so when he saw Ray-Ban hiding in a corner drinking alone, he came up to say hello to Ray-Ban.

This is a normal thing in social circles. We are relatively familiar with each other. It doesn't matter. If I see you drinking alone, I will naturally come up to you and have a chat or say hello. That means

I still remember yours.

Otherwise, if you go back and think about it, you must have seen me at the banquet tonight, but you didn't come over. What does this mean?

Therefore, there is nothing Li Tianxing can do. In a situation like this, as long as he sees something, he will definitely walk over.

But the result of Li Tianxing was indeed unexpected to him, because Ray-Ban directly spoke a word to him.

"roll!"

Li Tianxing was already pale, and now his face became even paler. He really didn't expect that in public, this person would actually do this without etiquette.

Everyone present stopped talking and looked here.

If Ray-Ban had changed the way he did it, or used other words, it would have been better than this, and it would have made Litianxing easier to do.

But the method adopted by this sword alliance is simple, direct and indeed unacceptable. That is, he used a loud voice in front of everyone at this banquet hall, using a voice that can be said to be heard by almost everyone.

It's such an outrageous thing to say such words that are almost insulting.

How can we endure this kind of Litianxing?

Even if he could bear it, with so many people listening, if he didn't say anything, he wouldn't be able to come out again in the future.

After standing still for a moment, Li Tianxing finally came to his senses, General Lei, what do you mean?

Anyone can see Li Tianxing's expression of extreme anger.

"roll!"

Lei Ban didn't seem to hear Li Tianxing's words. He didn't even look at him. Instead, he looked at the wine glass in his hand and said something else.

Li Tianxing was almost going crazy. Lei-Ban's demeanor and the words he spat out without even looking at him were like slaps one after another, hitting him hard on the face.

He felt like he couldn't hold his head up in this banquet hall and felt ashamed to see others.
