If the person in a high position cannot make big promises, then he has no right to be called a person in a high position.
"Your Highness, what about Yecheng and Haitang Duoduo that our Lord Shen specifically requested?"
Tian Kuixing is very dedicated and he acts the whole part, whether Li Chengze believes it or not.
"I have never broken my promises. You should prepare how to take down Ye Zhong and the Jingying camp."
Thinking he had the initiative, Li Chengze began to look down on Tiankuixing.
What about Tiankuixing? They are still trying their best to play the role assigned by Li Chengqian. As spies of the defeated country, they are like the saying goes, when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.
"What does the Qin family say?"
After Tiankuixing left, Li Chengze asked Xie Bian.
"Mr. Qin wanted to be a loyal minister at first, but his mind changed after he read the letter you asked me to give him."
"Humph, the old man is afraid."
Tianshatang and Ye Chong have never been Li Chengze’s trump cards; Qin Ye, the number one man in the military, is the one.

Fan Mansion
The protagonist Fan Xian, who has always had little presence, finally discovered the abnormality of the people around him.
"Father, are you and Uncle Wuzhu hiding something from me?"
Fan Jian naturally couldn't just watch Chen Pingping take risks alone, so he notified Wu Zhu.
"No, don't let your imagination run wild. By the way, tomorrow is the Double Ninth Festival, so don't go to the Royal Courtyard at night."
Fearing that Fan Xian would discover his plan, Fan Jian turned the tables.
"That's impossible. Ever since that crazy woman Li Yunrui moved into the Royal Courtyard, I haven't seen Wan'er for more than half a month."
Speaking of this, Fan Xian's hatred for Li Yunrui is higher than the sky and deeper than the sea.
"Lin Wan'er is someone of your status. Since you like her, you should be more considerate of her. It's really not good to climb her window in the middle of the night every other day."
Li Yunrui's pregnancy before marriage is a joke in the royal family. If Lin Wan'er is like her mother, it will be really funny.
"Father, we were just talking."
As they were all men, Fan Xian could naturally understand the meaning behind Fan Jian's words; he and Lin Wan'er were indeed just talking, because every time he had further ideas, the girl would take out that damn dagger from the bedside.
"You don't have to tell me this. Tomorrow is the Double Ninth Festival, and it will be your first time celebrating the festival in Kyoto. I'll ask your Aunt Liu to prepare some delicious food, and we'll have a nice drink tomorrow night."
"Okay, then we'll make it a deal. It's a pity that Ruoru is not convenient for me. It would be perfect if she could come as well."
Whenever the whole family was together like this, Fan Xian couldn't help but think of Fan Ruoruo who married into the Eastern Palace.
"If it's Ruoruo, I'll go to the East Palace tomorrow morning and ask for mercy to let her return home to celebrate the festival. The prince should give me this favor."
After careful consideration, Fan Jian made this decision; firstly, to protect his daughter, and secondly, he still wanted to help Chen Pingping;
In every previous experience, whenever Fan Ruoruo returned home, Li Chengqian would definitely send Qian Chunqiang to protect her, which meant that he had helped to transfer away a half-step master.
Chapter 246: Double Ninth Festival Banquet
Royal Court
The recent days have been unforgettable for Lin Wan'er. Although the bad guy didn't dare to come over again, she felt the long-lost maternal love.
"Meet Her Royal Highness the Princess"
Because it was the Double Ninth Festival, Lin Wan'er got up early to pay her respects to Li Yunrui, but was stopped by a palace maid at the door.
"what's wrong?"
"My Lord, Her Royal Highness the Princess is bathing and changing her clothes."
Having received a warning from Wanrong, the princess's close confidante, the maid did not dare to let him go.
"It's so early in the morning, mother is taking a bath again?"
Obviously, Lin Wan'er was no longer surprised by Li Yunrui's behavior.
"Is that Wan'er? Come in."
Li Yunrui's lazy call came from inside the house.
"Hello, mother. Today is the Double Ninth Festival. Wan'er would like to wish you eternal youth and longevity."
Looking at Li Yunrui's radiant face, Lin Wan'er felt that the four words "eternal youth" seemed to be born for people like her mother.
"Hurry up and get up. It's just the two of us, mother and daughter, behind closed doors. No need for all the formalities."
Li Yunrui was understanding and said that she looked somewhat humane now, which was why Lin Wan'er dared to try to get close to her.
"Mother, today is the Double Ninth Festival. I would like to go to the palace to pay my respects to the Queen Mother. Would you like to go with me?"
"Okay, let's go together."
It was dark at night, and Li Yunrui also wanted to see his face during the day.
.........
Inside the palace
In order to prepare for the Double Ninth Festival celebrations, the palace maids and eunuchs got up early and were busy with their tasks; pots of golden chrysanthemums were moved out from the greenhouse, and soon covered the square in front of Xingqing Palace.
Full of gold armor
The stage has been slowly being set up, waiting for the various actors to take their turns on stage.
East Palace
"Ruoruo, it's time to get up."
Li Chengqian, who was already dressed neatly, gently called out to Fan Ruoruo who was still sleeping.
"Ah, Your Highness, what time is it now?"
"It's almost time."
"Ah, it's so late, I haven't paid my respects to the Queen Mother and the Empress yet. Your Highness, why didn't you call me earlier? It's all my fault. I slept too late."
If you are pressed on the sleeping point, how can you sleep without dying?
"Okay, it's okay. You are in a special period now, so it's normal for you to be sleepy. I'll go with you later, and I don't think they will ask too much of you."
Li Chengqian looks like a good husband of Qing Kingdom.
The Queen Mother certainly wouldn't care about these conventional rituals when Fan Ruoruo was pregnant, so paying respects in Hanguang Palace was just a formality.
At noon, when the two were about to have lunch, Fan Jian arrived.
"I have met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince"
"How come you have time today, father-in-law, to visit my East Palace?"
The two of them really have their own opinions.
"I came here today to ask for a favor from Your Highness..."
"Father-in-law, please tell me..."
Li Chengqian was a little suspicious of Fan Jian's purpose as he came at this time instead of earlier.
"Today is the Double Ninth Festival. Everyone in the mansion misses Ruoruo very much. I am here to ask for a favor and let Ruoruo return home to celebrate the festival."
"It's just a small matter. How can I not agree to it when my father-in-law asks for it?"
It turned out that he was afraid that his daughter would be in danger. Wait, this old guy wanted to transfer Qian Chunqiang away; no wonder he was so serious and even came to the door in person.
"Your Highness, there is a family dinner in the palace tonight. Is it okay if I don't attend?"
If possible, Fan Ruoruo naturally wanted to go home for the festival; the family dinner in the palace was more of a ceremony than a family dinner.
"It's okay. I will explain to Father and Grandmother for Ruoruo."
As Fan Jian wished, Li Chengqian asked Qian Chunqiang to accompany Fan Ruoruo back home, and even saw them off with a smile. However, the moment he turned around, his face suddenly turned gloomy.
Favorability 20
With my looks, if I meet a stranger, his favorability will be higher than this.
The old guy didn't even give me a word of warning. It seems he wanted to watch me die.
Could it be that this guy still wants to be Yang Jian? If that's the case, Ruoruo, don't blame me for being cruel.
No wonder Li Chengqian had such doubts. Fan Ruoruo was pregnant. As long as Chen Pingping killed other members of the royal family and made himself half dead, there was room for this matter to be manipulated.
.........
Although she was named the Crown Prince's concubine, she was asked to replace the Crown Prince's wife to attend such a grand occasion as the Chongyang Family Banquet after only two days in the Eastern Palace. Haitang Duoduo still felt a little surprised.
Could it be that he has feelings for me and really wants me to have a home in Qing Kingdom?
After experiencing Li Chengqian's training again and again, Haitang Duoduo has lost a little bit of herself. Now she is just a little woman who is always worried about gains and losses.
"This is for you. There's going to be a disturbance at the banquet tonight, and I need your help."
Li Chengqian said after handing a jade token to Haitang Duoduo.
"Tiansha Order, what is this?"
"A little thing I carved for my own amusement; you will give it to me to-day at the dinner-party at the proper time. You are a clever man, and you will know what to do, right?"
Li Chengqian answered the question irrelevantly and smiled mysteriously.
…………
Facing the long flow of Zhang River, I look at the flourishing fruit garden. There are two terraces on the left and right, with a jade dragon and a golden phoenix. Two bridges connecting the east and west are like shrimps and salamanders in the sky. I look down at the grandeur of the imperial capital and the floating clouds.
Li Chengqian had never seen the Bronze Sparrow Tower, but he was sure that the Longxing Tower in front of him was in no way inferior to it; since the day it was built three years ago, it has been the most magnificent building in Kyoto City.
It was called a celebration banquet, but the Double Ninth Festival family banquet ceremony had a long history. Li Chengqian arrived at the Longxing Hall according to the usual time.
"Meet the Emperor, the Queen Mother"
The Empress Dowager did not like crowds and did not attend as usual; although Concubine Shu and Concubine Ning were elders, they were not worthy of Li Chengqian's great respect.
"Huh, I thought you weren't coming either?"
Emperor Qing's face looked very ugly, and there was a sense of panic in Longxingtai.
"Hey, haven't Big Brother and Prince Cheng arrived yet?"
Li Chengqian asked knowingly.
"Don't you know what they are doing?"
Emperor Qing was even more suspicious than Cao Cao. He didn't believe that Li Chengqian was completely unaware of the situation.
"Could it be that something delayed you on the way here?"
Li Chengqian pretended to be confused, but just as he finished his words, Eunuch Hou rushed in, crawling.
"Your Majesty, this is bad. The eldest prince is leading the border troops to attack from Yong'an Gate..."
"Well, he is indeed my good son. You asked him to return to the capital this time just to see him do this to me, right?"
Emperor Qing laughed out of anger and pointed at Concubine Ning and asked.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Prince Cheng led the Beijing Army and attacked from Yongding Gate..."
Before Concubine Ning could answer, another eunuch came in and reported.
"Rebellious sons, these two rebellious sons..."
Emperor Qing guessed that the two were up to something, but he didn't expect them to go so far; especially on the part of the eldest prince, his rebellion was unexpected.
"You should reflect on yourself, why would they oppose you?"
Unlike Concubine Shu who remained silent, Concubine Ning spoke rudely, she was completely determined.
"This matter was ultimately caused by me. I hope that Father will allow me to persuade my two brothers to come back."
The emperor cannot be wrong, if he is wrong it is someone else's fault; it is time for Li Chengqian to step forward and take the blame.
"It's good that you know. Gong Dian, you accompany the Crown Prince and bring those two rebellious sons to me."
Emperor Qing felt that he had not reached the point where he would have a quarrel with a woman like Concubine Ning.
