I just had tea yesterday, and I invite you to have morning tea today. It must be impure for a man and a woman to wait so eagerly to meet each other!"
Ai Xiang said as if she had come before.
Zhang Wei and Feng Ming nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, she is probably attracted to you!"
Ai Xiang was even more curious and asked: "Has she asked you to meet again?"
"Yes, she invited me to participate in the poetry meeting the day after tomorrow.
Then I will probably be able to meet Roten in person."
Li Xuan said.
The six eyes of the three people were all wide open, and their faces were full of disbelief: "We are about to meet the parents!"
Ai Xiang even patted her chest and said, "I thought it would definitely fail this time, but now that she asked you out again, I'm relieved.
Li Xuan, all our hopes are on you, don’t let us down!"
"What happened?"
Li Xuan asked strangely.
Ai Xiang handed over a document and said, "Please take a look at the information we just received."
After opening the information, Li Xuan glanced at it a few times, and his expression also changed.
This intelligence showed that just early this morning, Marquis Mi Wenlong purchased two arsenals from another noble.
It was originally a normal acquisition, but under the current background, it seems not that simple.
Most of that noble's industries are related to military industry, and they have always maintained close trade relations with the Yunteng Empire.
It is said that at the eastern border, half of the military uniforms worn by Yunteng soldiers were produced by his military factory.
Of course, this is just the bright side. Secretly, only God knows how many high-end weapons from Daqi Kingdom are imported into Yunteng through the channels of military factories! At present, the situation in Yunteng on the eastern border is getting more and more tense, and war is about to break out. This is exactly what is needed
When there was a large amount of military products, the noble actually sold his military factory to Mi Wenlong! This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Yunteng! The reason is very simple, Mi Wenlong is a well-known conservative backbone
, has also been advocating the theory that Yunteng is useless.
You have no idea what he will do after acquiring the military factory! The most frightening result is that the products and materials originally intended to aid Yunteng may be sent to the Dachu Kingdom's positions, which are already on the weaker side.
For Yunteng, this is definitely a disaster! Li Xuan read the intelligence and realized that the situation was not good. He couldn't help but said strangely: "I remember that Mi Wenlong has been coveting these two military factories for a long time and has always wanted to acquire them.
, were all rejected.
Why would he sell it this time?"
"It is said that Marquis Zhang Ning was the mediator and used some unknown means to force the noble family to sign the transfer agreement.
We also found some other information. Just last night, four manors and a forest farm belonging to Mi Wenlong's family were transferred to Zhang Ning's name.
I guess this is Zhang Ning's reward for helping."
Ai Xiang said.
"Zhang Ning... Mi Wenlong..." These two are the most powerful marquis families in Da Qi, and they are also the staunchest conservatives.
When they join forces, there's really nothing they can't do.
"By the way, we also found some strange movements.
At the same time that Mi Wenlong set aside the manor and forest farm for Zhang Ning, the Zhang family's territory in several remote provinces also changed owners."
Ai Xiang said, "One high-level territory, one medium-level territory, and more than twenty manors, which is almost equivalent to the entire territory of a noble.
They all transferred to the Mi family!"
"What the hell are they doing? What are they doing here and there?"
Li Xuan said doubtfully.
"I don't know yet...but judging from various clues, maybe this is also a reward.
Maybe the Mi family will also do something for the Zhang family."
"It won't be a good thing anyway."
Li Xuan said with a headache.
"Conservatives are becoming more and more powerful, and the attitudes of many hard-liners have become subtle as a result.
If this situation continues, perhaps Daqi will soon make the decision to abandon Yunteng.
By then, our situation will be in danger!"
Ai Xiang said solemnly.
"Don't worry..." Li Xuan took a deep breath.
He had received a promise before. Although there is no news yet, Li Xuan believed that the person would go all out.
But Li Xuan didn't intend to hang himself on a tree, he had to figure out Roten's attitude.
As long as this iron-blooded warrior can unequivocally support Yunteng, the situation will not get worse! From this point of view, the poem meeting the day after tomorrow is very important! But before that, I have to talk to a certain old man...
...Li Xuan scratched his head and found that he was sinking deeper and deeper into the political quagmire of various countries in the mainland and was unable to extricate himself.
...Saturday night, the moonlight was shining, and the weather was good.
When the lanterns first came on, many luxury carriages drove in the same direction from all directions, and their destinations were General Roten's home.
The Roten family holds several banquets almost every year, most of which are called poetry gatherings and invites some famous domestic poets to perform.
Almost every poetry meeting was a large gathering of nobles from the Daqi Kingdom, which always caused some sensation in the upper class.
It was the same this time. Not only were the ten major marquis families invited, but even the current prince and future King Gothe was invited to participate.
The arrival of the prince made the security of the Poetry Society very tight. There were guards stationed one kilometer away from Roten's house. They had to go through three rounds of inspections before entering the venue.
Without an invitation from the Roten family, not even a fly would be able to sneak in! When Ma Lie and Xue Na, who was wearing a fiery red dress, stepped out of the carriage, they immediately attracted the attention of many people.
"Aren't those Dean Malie and Dean Xue Na? People from Gaofu Academy rarely attend various banquets, but they are here too! What a strange thing!"
"Dean Xue Na looks so beautiful in a dress, and she has a very good figure. You can't even tell that on ordinary days!"
Many people are whispering.
The status of Gaofuyuan in Daqi Kingdom is very special. The status of several deans is comparable to that of princes. Ordinary little nobles must bow to them when they see them.
It is precisely because of their noble status and sensitive status that people in Gaofuyuan rarely attend various banquets to avoid getting involved in politics.
But today, two big shots at the dean level suddenly showed up, which made people speculate about the relationship between Gao Fuyuan and Luo Teng.
Compared to the slightly reserved Ma Lie, Xue Na was not stage frightened at all and instead greeted a few acquaintances.
Seeing Ma Lie's stern face, his expression was like that of a wooden man, Xue Na couldn't help but pinch him and said, "What are you doing?
You are here for a poetry recital, not a funeral!"
Ma Lie then smiled bitterly and said: "I rarely participate in poetry gatherings and I don't know what to do. Do you mean that I should smile more?"
Xue Na glanced at him and snorted: "Forget it, your laughter is uglier than your crying, so you better stop laughing.
Otherwise, others will think you have a problem with the Luo family!"
Ma Lie said angrily: "It's all because of Li Xuan's bad idea that he asked us to come and cheer him on!"
"Then why didn't you refuse the teacher?"
Xue Na smiled.
Ma Lie was speechless. The old man treated Li Xuan as if he were a treasure. He responded to every request. How could he dare to disobey the old man's wishes?
