Chapter 418 Fifty Miles Away, Wheat Field Banquet

Tens of days later.

Fifty miles southwest of Yanchuan City, the sun was shining brightly.

It was already the end of September, and the golden wheat fields were swaying in the wind, and they were like gold in Zhao Cheng's eyes.

Zhao Cheng, Zhao Wu and Zhao Yan stood on the fork in the road, behind them were fifty soldiers of the Right Prime Minister's Palace lined up neatly.

An hour later, a huge team came towards the fork in the road.

The leader of the team was Chai Xin.

Following them are Deng Fugui, Cai Qiong and Li Lu.

Then there are Miao Shaohua, Tu Ziming, Lu Chen, Mu Yan and Jia Zhong and his son.

Zhao Cheng hurriedly greeted him.

Seeing Zhao Cheng, these people quickly dismounted.

"Little Prime Minister!!!"

Zhao Cheng bowed his hands to everyone and said with a smile: "Cheng is waiting here specially to wait for you. Thank you for your hard work!"

Deng Fugui hurried over and hugged Zhao Cheng, laughing and saying, "Congratulations, Mr. Xiang!!"

"Congratulations, Mr. Xiang!!!" Everyone congratulated.

Li Lu said: "This place is still far away from Yanchuan City. Why should the young prime minister wait here? It's a shame to wait!"

"I know you're all hungry for wine, so I've already prepared some fairy wine here!"

Zhao Cheng turned sideways and pointed to one place.

It was a golden wheat field, but an area had been cleared, and wine tables and food were placed.

Chai Xin was surprised: "You started drinking now?"

Zhao Cheng raised his hand and glanced around, smiling and saying: "Isn't such a beautiful scenery perfect for drinking?"

"Hahaha, I just like the temper of the young prime minister!" With that said, Chai Xin hurriedly walked towards the wheat field.

"Ahem..." Deng Fugui pretended to cough, stopped the firewood, stepped forward and asked: "Xiao Xiangye, let's go to Yanchuan to visit the right minister first?"

Zhao Cheng said carelessly: "I gave birth to my son, not my father. Who are you here to congratulate?"

"this……"

Seeing that Deng Fugui was choking, Cai Qiong waved her hand and said boldly: "We are here not only to congratulate the consort and the eldest princess, but also to congratulate the right minister. But since the junior minister has arranged it, how can we shirk it?

Everyone, please take a seat!"

"Master Cai is still so heroic!" Zhao Cheng quickly used Cai Qiong's words to lead everyone to the table.

Cai Qiong sat down and said: "Prince-in-law, the Champion King asked me to send you a message before I came. He is on the southern border. The situation is special. It is inconvenient for him and the generals of the auxiliary countries to come."

Hearing this, Zhao Cheng bowed gratefully to the south and said: "I am grateful to the champion king for thinking about you. Cheng deserves it!"

Cai Qiong smiled and was not polite to Zhao Cheng at all. After sitting down, she raised her hands and said, "Let's go to the bar!"

Seeing several adults sitting down, Zhao Cheng looked at Mu Yan and others and said: "Don't be formal, come all here!!"

Jia Shenchen had the smallest identity and status among the people at the table. After everyone sat down at the table, he stopped Lu Chen from sitting down and muttered: "Spring and summer have passed and autumn has come. The wheat fields are golden and the wine is good. The officials, businessmen and princes-in-law gather together.

I just feel that there is less bitterness in the cup."

"Good! What a poem!" Lu Chen clapped quickly.

Everyone at the table was stunned for a moment, Tu Ziming also clapped quickly, and everyone else applauded in agreement.

"Good poems, good poems..."

Zhao Cheng curled his lips and thought, what is this?

Please don’t lower the level of my wheat field wine banquet, okay??

Even though he thought so, Zhao Cheng couldn't slap Jia Shenshen in the face. After all, they came all the way to congratulate him, so he smiled to cover up his embarrassment and quickly raised his glass to serve and share a drink with everyone.

"Lao San, you are all guests from afar, so you should also toast to the guests!"

"yes!"

Zhao Yan rarely drinks alcohol, but he is not a drunkard. Even after drinking several glasses of fairy wine, his expression does not change.

At this time, Zhao Cheng inspected the group of guests and said after coming back: "My lords and bosses, don't you bring too many gifts?"

Cai Qiong smiled and said: "My consort can help us make money, so what does this little thought mean?"

Zhao Yandao: "Master Cai, you must be an upright official! Otherwise, some people will say that our government and businessmen colluded!"

"Young Prime Minister, what you said is wrong!" Deng Fugui interjected: "In the same place, you make your money, and we do our political achievements, but political achievements and money are inseparable! The better the local economy, the better the local economy.

The better our political achievements are, so when Mr. Cai said you led us to make money, he meant that you helped us earn more political achievements!"

Deng Fugui looked at Cai Qiong and said, "Master Cai, is this the truth?"

Cai Qiong pointed at Deng Fugui and burst out laughing: "That's the truth! That's what Mr. Deng said!!"

Li Lu picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "You Jiangyang County and Yunjing County are doing so well, but I am so jealous of you! Young Master, when will I come to Shangyang County to do business?"

"I think so too!" Zhao Cheng shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity that Your Majesty has set a scope for me and only allows me to explore the eastern area of ​​Dajing. Your place...is not within the scope!"

Li Lu argued: "But you have business in Yanchuan and you also have business in Changsui. My Shangyang County is the only place to pass between Changsui and Yanchuan. Your business is to stop when you pass by. That's right."

My Shangyang County is also good!"

Zhao Cheng deliberately looked enlightened and said: "That makes sense! Okay, when Pu Wudi and the others arrive, I will tell him and ask him to come forward and see if Shangyang County has a chance."

"If there is a chance, there must be a chance!" Li Lu said excitedly: "When Pu Wudi comes, please introduce me to Mr. Xiaoxiang, and I can talk to him alone."

"That's good, but...I'm afraid you won't be able to see me this time!"

"What do you mean? Didn't you just say that Park Wudi was coming?"

"He is coming, but you..."

Zhao Cheng sighed again and said, "I'm afraid I can't go to Yanchuan City!"

Everyone was stunned immediately.

Zhao Cheng had a sad look on his face and said faintly: "Cheng is extremely touched that you can come. This shows that you regard me and my father as your own. Let me tell you the truth. I also regard you as my own."

That’s why we met each other fifty miles away, and I’m going to tell you what’s in my heart in this wheat field.”

"But what I want to say is that my father and I are also in a difficult situation. Just like when I do business, His Majesty has divided the scope for me. I don't need to say more about the reasons for this."

"You are the governors of the three counties and the big businessmen of the powerful families in the three counties. Just because I gave birth to a son and my father had a grandson, you left your posts without permission and came here to congratulate me without caring about business!"

"If word of this gets out..."

"How should my father and I explain this?"

Zhao Cheng drank the wine in the cup in one gulp and said in a deep voice: "I know you didn't mean it, but if this move is used by others, to my Right Prime Minister's Mansion...how is it any different from being flattered and killed?!"

hiss!!!

After hearing what Zhao Cheng said, everyone in the room took a deep breath.

The wine glass in Deng Fugui's hand fell off. He stood up in a hurry and stamped his feet: "Me! I'm so confused!!"
