The strongest Marquis in history

Ma Tianqi said, "That's what it means."

Dong Xu also nodded in agreement.

The four of them were talking, and Han Zhen, who was sitting below, had a smile on his face.

opportunity!

His chance has come!

With his grandfather's plan, he will become the county magistrate of Kaiyang County next.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Han Zhen just sat quietly and didn't speak, after all, he was here to attend right now.According to his seniority and age, it is good to be able to attend, and there is no chance to speak for the time being.

Time passed by little by little, and in a blink of an eye, it was already dark.

"Report!"

At this moment, a servant entered.

After the attendant stood still, he reported: "Patriarch, the county government has arranged for someone to send a message, inviting the Patriarch to go to the banquet. At the same time, please also inform the other three families to go together."

"understood."

Han Qinzi nodded.

He stood up, looked at Li Mi, Dong Xu, and Ma Tianqi, and said with a smile: "You three, just follow me. Zhen'er, you also go together this time, after all, you have to plan your affairs at night."

"Yes!"

Han Zhen replied immediately.

Han Qinzi led the people out of the government office and took a carriage to the county office.

The carriage stopped outside the county government office. When Han Qinzi and his party arrived at the gate of the county government office, they were led into the hall of the county government office.

In the hall at this moment, Wang Qiduan was sitting on the main seat, the left seat was vacant, and on the right side were Zhuge Feng, Xia Houhu, Cai Yang, Gu Tong, Li Meng and others.

Li Mi was a little surprised when he saw Li Meng, but he didn't say anything.

A group of people sat down alone.

Seeing that everyone was here, Wang Qi glanced at Han Zhen and ordered, "Come here, serve the food and wine."

With an order, the soldiers filed in.

Wine and meat are placed on everyone's desk.

There is no wine in Wang Qi's army, these wines are all seized materials, they are from Baibo Mountain's cellar, so they are considered good wines.Although compared to Wuliangye, it is far behind, but it is still a good wine.

As for the meat, it was made by the cooks in the army.

Wang Qi saw that the wine and dishes had been set up, picked up the wine bottle, and said, "Patriarch Han, your four major families have made great contributions in the process of breaking Kaiyang County this time. Thanks to you this time, let's have a drink together. "

"Please!"

Wang Qi drank it all in one gulp.

Han Qinzi and the others drank with a smile, all of them seemed very happy.

Wang Qi acknowledged their contributions, and things were easy to handle.

It would be more troublesome if Wang Qi wiped it out and refused to admit it, but Wang Qi is obviously not such a person.

After putting down the wine bottle, Wang Qi said again: "Since I, Wang Qi, has been in charge of Nanyang County and now in charge of Langya Country, I have always adhered to one point of view, that is, those who make meritorious deeds must be rewarded and those who have done wrong must be punished."

"Although Patriarch Han and others are not under my command, you have helped me and made great achievements. I have to express it. Therefore, I am going to reward the four major families."

Wang Qi didn't go around in circles, and directly said about the award.

Han Zhen sat at the last seat.

His heart suddenly became excited.

coming!

coming!

Grandfather is about to propose that he be made the county magistrate of Kaiyang County.

Han Zhen's eyes fell on Han Qinzi, waiting for Han Qinzi to speak.

Han Qinzi was very calm in his heart, with a smile on his face, he took the words and said, "President Guo, what kind of award do you dare to ask?"

Wang Qi said: "I am going to hand over the post of county magistrate to people from the four major families."

Han Qinzi didn't even think about it, and immediately said: "The Prime Minister is very kind, I thank the Prime Minister on behalf of the four major families. When it comes to the post of county magistrate, it is very important and requires talented people to be competent. The grandson of the old man, Han Zhen, as the head of the younger generation of the four major families, is the most suitable. I implore the Prime Minister to appoint him as the county magistrate."

Dong Xu, Li Mi and Ma Tianqi all looked calm and didn't say anything.

After all, it is an agreed matter.

Wang Qi was not in a hurry, and said: "Master Han, Han Zhen, is capable, but unfortunately too weak. I admire one person, Li Meng from the Li family, who is very good. I am preparing to let him be the leader of Kaiyang. County magistrate."

brush!

Han Zhen's complexion changed drastically.

how come?

Why did Wang Qi choose Li Meng?

You must know that Han Zhen went to Wang Qi in person in order to pass on the news, and has always been by Wang Qi's side as a hostage.But Wang Qi chose Li Meng, and this person is just a collateral branch of the four major families.

Why is it Li Meng?

Chapter 367 Dispute

Han Zhen was born in the Han family and is the eldest grandson of the Han family.Although he had seen many things in the world, when he heard Wang Qi's words, he still couldn't help being surprised, with a shocked expression on his face.

Han Zhen couldn't help but said, "Li Meng is just a collateral branch of the Li family, not even a concubine. I don't agree with him as the county magistrate of Kaiyang County."

Han Qinzi's expression changed slightly when he heard Han Zhen's words.

"To shut up!"

Han Qinzi scolded, and said, "Here, there is no room for you to speak."

In the current situation, Han Zhen, as a junior, is not qualified to speak.So Han Qinzi immediately reprimanded him, turned to look at Wang Qi, and said, "Minister of the State, you should be cautious about choosing the magistrate of Kaiyang County. After all, Li Meng is a warrior, not a literati. Such a person serves as a county lieutenant." It’s not bad, I’m afraid it’s not appropriate to be the county magistrate.”

Dong Xu and Ma Tianqi sat below, they didn't speak at this moment, they looked like they were watching a play.

Li Mi narrowed his eyes.

Thinking in my heart.

It is true that Li Meng is a collateral lineage, not his lineage, but Li Meng is a member of the Li family after all.

Want to support Li Meng?

As soon as Li Mi thought of this, he looked at Han Qinzi again.Once he opened his mouth to support Li Meng, it was tantamount to saying that he would offend Han Qinzi and create a rift with the Han family.

Since then, contradictions have arisen.

In Li Mi's heart, he suddenly thought clearly.

But after Li Mi understood, he frowned again, because he thought of another possibility.

This is Wang Qi's intention.

Is it intended to provoke an internal strife among the four major families?

Suddenly, Li Mi became flustered.

He has always been resourceful, but Wang Qi's arrangement made Li Mi vigilant.Although Wang Qi is young.But the strength that Wang Qi displayed, as well as Wang Qi's means, are really not simple, and they cannot be taken lightly.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Mi finally did not speak and did not intervene.

Li Meng is not a direct descendant of the Li family.

There's no need to fight Han Qinzi for Li Meng, and act as Wang Qi's knife.

Wang Qi glanced at Li Meng. Seeing that Li Meng was silent, he smiled lightly. He turned to look at Han Zhen, and said indifferently: "Han Zhen, the official employs people, and he doesn't know his background. What about the collateral line? Who stipulates that the direct line A person should be born to be strong."

Han Zhen hurriedly said: "Han Zhen made a slip of the tongue, please forgive me, Prime Minister."

Wang Qi snorted, turned to look at Han Qinzi, and continued: "Patriarch Han, you said that Han Zhen is a literati, while Li Meng is a warrior. But according to my understanding, Li Meng is both civil and military, which is rare. Talents."

"Such a person can fight wars on horseback and govern the country off horseback. How can he be so poor?"

"In my opinion, Li Meng is the most suitable candidate for the county magistrate. As for Han Zhen, he is a hero of the Han family. He will stay in the Han family for now and inherit the Han family in the future."

"As I said just now, the four major families helped me open the city gate and made great achievements. I reciprocated and arranged for people from the four major families to serve as the county magistrate. So I let Li Meng serve as the county magistrate."

Wang Qi said with a smile on his face, "There should be no problem, right?"

Han Qinzi was furious.

Where Wang Qi is giving benefits, he is clearly provoking on purpose.

Of course, in name, Wang Qi did give benefits, but the Han family didn't get any benefits.

He is not happy.

Han Qinzi looked at the smiling Wang Qi, and his heart skipped a beat.He suddenly had a feeling that the Wang Qi in front of him was not someone like Bai Boshan.Bai Boshan seems to be strong, but in fact he is strong on the outside and capable on the inside.

Wang Qi is different.

This is a very sophisticated fox.

As for the matter of rewarding the four major families, it was reported that Li Meng was appointed as the county magistrate. Who can say that Wang Qi treated the four major families badly?

No!

Li Meng is from the Li family.

Han Qinzi lost interest all of a sudden, he clutched his chest, looked embarrassed, and said, "Minister Guo, I suddenly feel uncomfortable and feel unwell, I beg you to resign, so as not to affect the banquet of the Prime Minister."

Wang Qi said: "Go!"

Han Qinzi turned and left, Han Zhen also stood up, gave Wang Qi a bitter look, then turned and left.

Dong Xu and Ma Tianqi also left with excuses.

Li Mi, who was sitting at the end, hesitated for a while, and also got up to leave.

The members of the four major families all left in a short time.

Seeing this scene, Wang Qi chuckled lightly.

Don't care at all.

It's just four major families.

If reputation was not considered, the troops under Wang Qi's command were enough to easily crush the four major families, and it would be no problem to turn the bottom upside down.

Wang Qi looked at Li Meng and said, "Li Meng, what do you think?"

Li Meng's expression was very serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Reporting to the Prime Minister, serving as the county magistrate in a humble position made the Prime Minister hate the four major families. The Prime Minister knows the kindness of encounter, and the humble position will definitely go all out to live up to the trust of the Prime Minister."

At this time, Li Meng has no sense of belonging to the family.As long as Li Mi recognized him a little, he would not leave directly, let alone let Han Qinzi speak.

At least give him a hand.

Not to mention Li Mi and Han Qinzi fighting to the end, defending Li Meng with a word, that's different.

Unfortunately, Li Mi did nothing.

Wang Qi chuckled and said, "What I mentioned is to ask you, what do you think of the four major families?"

Li Meng is not just a martial artist, he has his own wisdom.Li Meng thought about Wang Qi's question for a while, and he already had an idea in his mind, and said, "Minister of the State, what the four major families want is for the people they support to be in power."

"Because I wasn't supported by them, they didn't agree."

"Even because of what happened today. When I am in charge in Kaiyang County next time, they are likely to obstruct me and set up obstacles, which will cause me many obstacles and make it difficult for me to govern the place smoothly."

Li Meng said firmly: "Please rest assured, Prime Minister, I will live up to the great trust of Prime Minister, and I will definitely handle the government affairs of Kaiyang County well. In humble positions, loyalty and filial piety are two words. Loyalty comes before filial piety."

Wang Qi nodded.

He is satisfied with what Li Meng said.

Wang Qi asked again: "What do you think of the Li family?"
