Chapter 554 The Meaning of King Qin
"I believe you can do it."
"The Wind Rider, who once roamed the Western Regions and frightened countless merchants, will once again show his former glory in Yangzhou."
"And you, Wulezhi, the former Turkic master, a top killer ranked among the top few in the world, you will also make great contributions for me in Yangzhou!"
"I, Li Cunxi, will never forget the contributions you have made. If I become an emperor in the future, I will definitely benefit from your help!"
Li Cunxi didn't care whether Wulezhi could eat it or not, he praised him passionately on the spot and even painted a big rosy picture for him.
Wulezhi was probably really hungry. He knelt on one knee and said loudly:
"I am willing to go through fire and water for the master of the family, no matter what it takes!"
Li Cunxi patted Wulezhi's shoulder vigorously and turned away.
"I will never forget those who have done things for me, Li Cunxi."
"You, Wulezhi, are the best fighter under my command. I urgently need you to fight alongside me at this critical moment and help me solve my problems!"
"Tomorrow night, I will arrange for someone to report to me at midnight, saying that there are hundreds of skeletons and minced meat and blood all over the ground in Beigou Warehouse."
"It's time for you to think and act on your own."
Wu Lezhi bowed and said, "I already know when I should make my move, Patriarch. Tomorrow night at midnight, you will definitely get the result you want."
"I'm waiting for your good news."
As Li Cunxi spoke, he stared at Wulezhi with a passionate gaze.
"Yes!"
Wulezhi responded, took his leave, left the ship, and soon disappeared into the endless night.
Wu Yanhao, who was sitting on the mat, was shocked.
"All the heroes in the world are in our grasp. I can't even imagine how Yuan Qi will win the battle in Yangzhou."
There are four powerful enemies outside and two undercover agents inside.
How should Yuan Qi make up for such a fatal gap in military power?
The number of masters Li Cunxi summoned this time far exceeded Yuan Qi's imagination.
As long as Hu Jinghui can hold Yuan Qi back, Kui Wenzhong, Li Yuanfang and Wulezhi will be able to cooperate with Long Feng and Chen Yiqu to wipe out all the leaders of the Iron Hand Group in a very short time by means of internal and external cooperation.
"Cunxi, we are bound to win this game again." Wu Yanhao said softly.
"Yes, it's another must-win game." said Li Cunxi.
"You are already the head of all officials, serving as the governor of Henan Province, co-director of Fengtai Luan Pavilion, serving as the prime minister in the government hall, and being conferred the title of Duke of Qin. You have reached the highest position you can be."
Lu Dayou licked his lips and said, "That is to say, after Cun Xi solves the Han Canal boat capsizing case and returns to the court, the most likely reward he will receive is..."
Wu Yanhao took a deep breath: "King Qin!"
Since Qin Wang Li Shimin was conferred many official positions, no official positions above the second rank were established during the Tang Dynasty.
Even for second-rank official positions, only a few are available for people to compete for.
This is the reason why Li Cunxi, the second-rank governor of Henan Province, was ranked first among all officials.
Similarly, the title of King of Qin, which was endowed with special significance, took on new meaning after Emperor Taizong Li Shimin took control of the world's military power!
King Qin!
Xuanwumen!
Inheritance system!
The way of inheriting the throne in the Tang Dynasty has become... snatching.
And when Li Cunxi became the King of Qin, he was destined to grab that position.
"My father called you His Highness a few years ago. I was still out there at the time and never understood."
"Now, question Daddy, understand Daddy, and become Daddy."
"Your humble servant Wu Yanhao pays respects to His Highness!"
Wu Yanhao looked solemn and stood up to bow to Li Cunxi.
"Why is it so, Brother Yanhao?"
Li Cunxi lay down on his side: "I don't know you yet? Are you pretending to be me again? Do you also want to be conferred a title?"
Wu Yanhao immediately returned to his usual playful state.
"My parents gave me life, and I am known by my parents."
"But my father's throne of King of Wei will definitely not be mine, so I can only follow you for a while and see if I can become a Duke, then I will be satisfied."
Wu Yanhao lay down completely, picked up a piece of exquisitely crafted pastry and put it in his mouth.
The pastry was very sweet and fragrant, but it could not compare to the feeling of a bright future, which made him feel sweet to the heart.
He used to be the twelfth son of King Wei. He went out to gain experience early, waiting for his wicked father to seize the throne so that he could become a prince.
Later, his father asked him to come back and get together with Li Cunxi, saying that he wanted to take some of Li Cunxi's nobility.
He didn't want to, but he came back.
Now, several years have passed.
He understood his father.
He once had no official position and only the title of the son of King Wei.
Today, although he holds many official positions, he is still an official without actual responsibilities. He travels around every day and is as happy as he can be following Li Cunxi.
Moreover, when he has run out of titles to be given, he will at least have the title of Duke.
As for the throne of King Wei in the family, let's leave it to our good brother Wu Yanji.
"Yanhao, please don't let yourself fall into depravity."
"You have the talent to be a prime minister!"
Li Cunxi spoke righteously. He absolutely did not want Wu Yanhao to follow the example of his mentor Wu Chengsi and become a hands-off boss.
"No, I didn't, I definitely didn't!"
"I was born a straw bag, I just eat, drink and have fun."
Wu Yanhao closed his eyes and muttered to himself.
What a joke! I'm about to live a wonderful life like my father Wu Chengsi, and just because of your kind words, Li Cunxi, should I give up my dream?
Born in the family of King Wei, Wu Yanhao remembered that his father spent his days in debauchery and drunkenness ever since he could remember.
This made Wu Yanhao, at a young age, look forward to living this kind of life when he grew up.
Now, he's almost there!
Can you, Li Cunxi, stop me?
"Don't worry, you will never have this chance, Yanhao."
Li Cunxi lowered his head and made up his mind secretly.
……
After a night's sleep, Li Cunxi slowly woke up to the sound of Lu Dayou reading aloud.
The coarse salt soaked into the hot water, and the salty taste filled his mouth. Li Cunxi brushed his teeth and rinsed his mouth, then came out and drank a bowl of tea that had been brewed for him early.
"Today's tea is quite good."
He said, turning around and sitting on the mat.
The soldiers had already brought the food. It was a sugar cake similar to the one Wu Yanhao had eaten last night, and there were five side dishes on the side. The combination of meat and vegetables was very delicious.
Wu Yanhao, who was also awakened by the sound of Lu Dayou reading, walked out with panda eyes wide open. He sat down opposite Li Cunxi and looked outside.
"Bring another set of bowls and chopsticks, seven or eight soup dumplings, and three side dishes, all with meat."
Soon, soldiers brought buns and side dishes, as well as bowls and chopsticks.
"Go down." Wu Yanhao reached out and picked up a soup dumpling, "Dayou, it's time to eat!"
Lu Dayou's reading stopped abruptly. He put down the book and came out to sit on one side. The three of them began to eat.
Halfway through the meal, someone suddenly came in from outside and bowed to Li Cunxi.
"Cunxi, someone is coming from Prince Ying's Mansion."
