Fish swimming around the world

Naturally, Jiang Qi had no objection to her brother's request. She just reminded Jiang Fan that this technique was indeed a bit weird and she didn't know if anyone could practice it.

She used weird words, but she didn't say evil, because in Jiang Qi's opinion, there is no good or evil in Kung Fu, only people have it.

Jiang Fan listened carefully to her opinion and decided to try it slowly in his free time.

After the three-day alliance ended, Jiang Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief. After that, they would cautiously leave Yangdu and return to their old places, but changes would slowly occur. The close communication between them is also a long-term and meticulous work, which cannot be solved in just a few sentences.

But no matter what, there was finally a start, and Jiang Fan also realized that he was constantly changing whether he was active or passive.

After settling this matter, there will be a third grand banquet, the Great Qin New Year State Banquet.

Yes, since the New Year's Day was established, the first New Year's Day state banquet was held in Mortal Residence.

For this reason, as early as half a year ago, Qinglianyuan had started to supervise the construction of a huge banquet hall to entertain all the civil and military officials of the Qin State, powerful people from all walks of life, and officially invited guests.

This banquet is not a secret. Almost everyone in Qin knows about it, but all parties have different opinions.

Some people think that it was just the empress and the regent who hosted a banquet for all parties to celebrate the establishment of the New Year's Day, which was also a great celebration for the country.

Some people also believe that this was used by the empress and the regent to show the close relationship between the two.

Others believe that this is a way for the two to show their benevolence, win people's hearts, and screen their confidants.

Some people even secretly call it the Happy Party Banquet. In their opinion, this was used by King Xiaoyao to show off his muscles. Some people believe that this shows that King Xiaoyao has enough power and confidence. The rise of a new and huge political force in the Qin Dynasty means that the changes in the power of the Qin Dynasty have begun.

But no matter what, it is a great honor to hold the first New Year's state banquet in a mortal residence. Zhao Gao was in charge of the palace affairs and Gu Beiyan was in charge of the mortal affairs, and they jointly organized the matter.

Gu Beiyan is familiar with ordinary people's homes and has experience in running them. Zhao Gao, on the other hand, is a truly well-rounded person who does everything meticulously. Under their management, the banquet was almost flawless, grand and grand yet harmonious and warm, and ended perfectly.

A total of 331 people participated in the banquet, including officials of the fifth rank and above from the Great Qin Dynasty. There are a total of 567 representatives of aristocratic families from all over the country. There are a total of 418 celebrities and elders from all walks of life. Two hundred and ninety-six outstanding contributors from all walks of life were selected under Jiang Fan's suggestion. There are a total of 180 people's representatives from the eighteen states of the Qin Dynasty. A total of 305 people from outside Qin were selected. There are also 217 representatives from Daqin and its partners outside the territory.

After counting, there were nearly 2,400 attendees. Fortunately, the banquet hall named Qinglian Hall was designed by Gongshu with a large void in the middle of the upper and lower floors, and it was enough to accommodate 3,000 people for dinner together.

Naturally, state banquets cannot be as casual and joyful as ordinary people's banquets. Rather, there is a process to follow. Although many people in Qin are simple, there are still some things that cannot be avoided.

Therefore, the banquet started in the afternoon, started at dusk, went through a series of links, started at the end of Xu Shi, and ended successfully at midnight.

No matter how much the outside world views this banquet and how meaningful it actually is, it is clear that since then, Da Qin has truly established the New Year Festival, and has also begun to develop the cultural tradition of the New Year Festival.

Of course, the profound political significance, cultural significance contained in it, as well as the significance of breaking the tradition of thousands of years and distinguishing it from the four countries are freely commented by the world.

Jiang Fan felt exhausted and such a formal occasion was not suitable for him.

The empress was fine, and looked very good, but she seemed not to have eaten enough. She was now replenishing her meal with Jiang Fan in the small hall.

A golden and shiny roasted whole lamb, and a pot of tender and smooth hot and sour soup.

"The letter of credence discusses the Northern Territory to show the national strength. The state banquet of the Qin Dynasty shows Zhang Xian's wealth. In your words, the face-saving work has been done. The rest depends on the game."

Jiang Fan nodded and said while eating a lot: "The old guys from the Feng family and the Holy Land didn't test it out, and if we turn around and do it like this, it will make it unclear to the outside world what confidence we have."

"Procrastination is indeed not easy." The empress frowned a little.

Jiang Fan smiled: "It's nice to just do it if you don't accept it. But it's only a temporary pleasure. The price is too heavy and we can't afford it."

The empress said: "I can bear it, but you can't. Come back beautifully from this trip to Northern Xinjiang."

"I will obey my lady's wishes." Jiang Fan said with a smile.

"Don't give me that playful smile. If you don't do things well, you should think more carefully."

After three banquets, the mortal residence gradually returned to peace. And Jiang Fan's unrest has officially begun.

Just as Gao Jian was pushed to the forefront by Taihua, he himself was manipulated by the empress.

Mr. Jiang's trip to northern Xinjiang is about to begin. But he was still not in a hurry, he was waiting for news.

Half a month later, a secret letter came from the grassland, and it was from Prince Dulan.

Jiang Fan read it carefully twice before burning it on a candle.

Very well, neither Du Lun nor King Zuo Xian let him down. Du Lun obviously conveyed his attitude and thoughts to Du Meng clearly. As he thought, it was easy for this kind of hero to understand such things.

Later, after the conditions of the Qin State spread to the grassland, Du Meng followed the orders of the Great Wolf Lord and went to the Royal Court of the Golden Horde to discuss countermeasures.

Faced with Qin's provocation, King Hunxie became furious and asked the Great Wolf Lord to send troops to cooperate in the attack on Qin.

But Du Meng immediately raised an objection, thinking that it was not appropriate to mobilize troops as the Fuli Conference was imminent. This point was actually agreed by the Right Wise King, who implicitly pointed out that it seemed more important to determine the ownership of the New Moon Pasture and ensure the stability of the grassland first.

In this matter, King Tu Ling remained neutral. After all, he did not border the Qin State at all and had no interest in it at all.

Then there was the Great Wolf Lord, who appeased King Hunxie on the surface and absolutely agreed with the views of the Left and Right Wise Kings in secret. So, under this situation, King Hunxie's proposal was rejected.

And facing the 200,000 troops of the empress and Jiang Fan's 100,000 troops, there must be a solution.

They discussed for a long time and thought that the empress was just bluffing, but it was hard to say about Jiang Xiaoyao, who had two previous convictions in the barbarians!

He dared to fight hard when he had nothing, and now he is in charge of 100,000 private troops. What is he afraid of?

In the past few days, the 100,000 troops have been active more than a dozen times near the border between Yuzhou and the barbarians, and they have crossed the border for military exercises from time to time. Even a fool can see that they are ready to move. The tribes on the border were so scared that they began to flee deep into the grassland.

Facing this unreasonable barefoot hooligan, everyone is uncomfortable.

The problem is that it is impossible to ask King Hunxie to pay compensation. He has roared more than once, shouting that the people of the Wolf God have never had such a humiliating history. Of course, asking the Great Wolf Lord to offer the Crescent Princess is even more nonsense. In their opinion, the empress also knows it well. She is deliberately proposing impossible conditions to find an excuse for Jiang Xiaoyao to march.

For this, the Right Xian King actually cited evidence, which was provided by one of his Huazu staff members, Zeng Xi.
