When the sky was just dawning, Dongcheng Invincible opened his eyes and found that the soft and fragrant body around him seemed to have been gone for a long time, and half of the quilt had become cold, just like the feeling of many years in the past.He was stunned for a while, as if he was not sure whether this was reality or a dream, and after more than ten seconds, he smiled self-deprecatingly, sat up slowly, put on his clothes and walked out of the room.The light was on in the corridor of the villa outside the door, because it was the fourth floor, in a more private space, the small reception area at the corner of the corridor was transformed into a small kitchen, and a slight sound accompanied by the aroma came over, Dongcheng Invincible sniffled, and his expression became softer.Bai Qingqian, who got up early, was frying eggs in the small kitchen, and there was a cooked porridge on the side, as well as a few finished oil cakes with a strange shape."
Hungry?"
Dongcheng Invincible walked to the kitchen and looked at his wife, and laughed: "If you wait for a while, Sister-in-law Wu will probably get up too, why do you cook in person today?"
”"Just made breakfast for the two of us."
Bai Qingqian, who was wearing an apron, put the fried eggs on the plate and said softly: "My plane this afternoon and evening." ”Dongcheng Invincible was stunned for a moment, and then fell silent.Bai Qingqian is the speaker of Liaodong, naturally it is impossible to be resident in Youzhou, she has been in Youzhou during this time, there is less than a year before the general election, and she is very sensitive in all aspects, she will go to Yinlonghai today to participate in a meeting of the speakers of the Central Continent, which is also the highlight of this series of meetings, and it can even be said to be the finale meeting.This meeting can basically determine some things that all parties are already mentally prepared for, and even determine Bai Qingqian's new position after the general election.Then she had to rush back to Liaodong overnight.The next time the husband and wife meet, it is estimated that it will be the general election in October next year."
It may not be too late to send you, it depends on the situation, I will try to find time."
Dongcheng Invincible was silent for a while and said softly."
No, I don't."
Bai Qingqian filled two bowls of porridge, made some very delicate and delicious side dishes and put them on the table: "You can be busy with yours, I will try to come back for the Spring Festival." ”Dongcheng Invincible smiled bitterly and shook his head, the Spring Festival is a holiday for ordinary people, but for them they can't be idle at all, especially in the year before the election, it is basically impossible for the speakers of various places to leave their jobs, and even if Bai Qingqian can really come back, in the past few days of the New Year, Dongcheng Invincible can't be busy, he wants to represent the military department to go to all parts of Central Continent to pay New Year's greetings to the soldiers, inspect the work, and the two of them have little chance of encountering."
Reluctant?"
Bai Qingqian sat down, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "It's only a year at most, I can go back to Youzhou, I can't wait for a year?"
”"What year is this?"
Dongcheng Invincible sighed, his face was sad, and he no longer had the slightest murderous demeanor: "This has made me wait for more than twenty years before I can taste the sweetness, I..."
Bai Qingqian's face turned red, and he picked up his chopsticks and knocked Dongcheng Invincible in annoyance, and said hatefully: "Let you talk nonsense." ”"That's true."
Dongcheng Invincible was a little helpless.Bai Qingqian held the chopsticks, his face became more and more ruddy, the relationship between the two has been stiff for more than 20 years, almost a state of turning his face into hatred, although the relationship has eased a little bit in recent years, but as a husband and wife, the real sharing of the bed has only recently begun, Dongcheng is invincible and reluctant, Bai Qingqian naturally doesn't want to leave, but the responsibility is in the body, what can you do if you don't go?
She lowered her head and took a sip of porridge, and said quietly: "Isn't the Black Dragon Army in Longjiang?"
”"yes."
Dongcheng Invincible nodded subconsciously.Bai Qingqian glared at him: "I can't come back during the Spring Festival, can't you inspect the Northeast during the Spring Festival?"
”"AhhDongcheng Invincible reacted suddenly, and nodded with a smirk: "Yes, that's right, it's so decided, I'll go to your side to inspect during the Spring Festival." ”Bai Qingqian snorted lightly, drank porridge, and asked casually: "After the election, your part-time job should be removed, right?"
”"Hmm."
Dongcheng Invincible nodded: "It doesn't have to be after the election, it may also be before." ”He was the permanent minister of the military department and the commander of the Border Forbidden Corps.In the entire military department, the Frontier Forbidden Corps occupies an extremely important core position, and the rank of marshal of the corps commander is enough to show that Zhongzhou attaches great importance to the Frontier Forbidden Corps.The Academy, the Southeast Group, and the Prince Group were reluctant to continue to let this position be in the hands of Dongcheng Invincible.The invincible prestige of Dongcheng is too high, especially in the Border Forbidden Legion, he has served as the commander of the Legion for more than twenty years, and he is completely the soul and core of the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Border Forbidden Legion, although he is now the commander of the Border Forbidden Legion, but as long as he is still in the Border Forbidden Legion, even if it is just a soldier, as long as he is there, the Border Forbidden Legion has no room for others to interfere.The other groups would rather let a person who is also from a wealthy group take control of the Frontier Forbidden Legion than see Dongcheng Invincible continue to occupy this position.Especially the Southeast Group, this position was originally traded by them from the Dongcheng family with great difficulty, and finally sent it out, and the grievances and helplessness in it are indescribable, and they naturally want to regain some of the right to speak in the Border Forbidden Legion.This position has now become an important bargaining chip for the wealthy group to trade with all parties in the general election, and the benefits that can be traded have even exceeded expectations."
What about the successor?"
Bai Qingqian said softly: "Is it the Li Eagle King?"
Or Thor?
”This issue is also the focus of many people's attention, and it can also be said to be the most sensitive focus before and after the election.Dongcheng Invincible took a deep breath, frowned, and after a while, he shook his head and said: "It's hard to say now, the qualifications of the Eagle King are enough, but some people are talking about his experience in not leading the army for so many years, Lei Zi's qualifications are slightly worse, and he is not even a general, in short, there is resistance in front of the two, in this regard, although we cooperate with the Southeast, the Southeast also has a saying."
In the final analysis, they are not very opposed to the Eagle King or the Thunder Son, either of them can go up, what they want is some other positions in the Border Forbidden Legion after the two of them go up. ”"So we can push any of them up now, the next thing is nothing more than a deal, the reason why this appointment has not been issued now is just because a new balance has not been reached, to be honest, we can hand over some positions, but we don't want to give too much, the current situation is very simple, whether it is the Eagle King or the Lei Zi, we must at least give more than a third of the Border Forbidden Legion, or even close to half of the right to speak, the price is too great.Moreover, the border ban legion has a special status and special responsibilities, and such a transaction is not a good thing for the legion. ”Bai Qingqian blinked his eyes and said softly: "So, what you once said to your eldest brother is true?"
”Dongcheng Invincible was stunned for a moment before he remembered what he had said to Bai Qingqing before, he hesitated, nodded and said: "I have also communicated with the two old men about this matter, but I haven't made a decision yet."
Dongcheng Invincible paused, and said thoughtfully: "The most important thing now is the result of the decisive battle in Beihai, if Tianlan's performance is strong enough, the Border Forbidden Legion will have the most perfect candidate." ”The Frontier Forbidden Legion is too big, in a sense, it can almost be said to be the most important large-scale comprehensive legion in Middle-earth, there is no one.Such a behemoth, the Eagle King or the Thunder God have such and such problems, and the Eastern Palace is now extremely strong, so such a problem cannot form an obstacle, but if you want to achieve your goal, the wealthy group also needs to pay some price.In this case, the most correct way for the Wealthy Group is to bypass the Eagle King and Thor, and directly launch a person who is extremely perfect and strong in all respects, so strong that as long as the Wealthy Group pushes out this candidate, there will be no reason to oppose it in all aspects.As long as he is pushed out, everyone will take it for granted that he is the new commander of the Border Forbidden Legion, the most suitable, even irreplaceable.Such people are hard to find.The most suitable means that there is only one.Compared with the major groups in Central, there is only one such person.It's hard to find.But that doesn't mean that the Giants Group doesn't.Dongcheng Invincible has always had such a hole card in his hand, and he has been hesitating to play it.When this card is played, no one will object, and no one is qualified to oppose it, which also means that in the transfer of the supreme power of the border ban legion, the price that the wealthy group needs to pay to other groups is much smaller.Just playing this card, the giants are also likely to lose another hole card, which will also cause some trouble.Therefore, the invincibility of Dongcheng needs some new situations, and the situation formed after the decisive battle in Beihai is undoubtedly a good entry point.But only if the situation after the decisive battle is as expected."
Tianlan..."
There was some worry in Bai Qingqian's eyes: "Someone outside has already called him Your Majesty, is he really invincible?"
As rumored to be?
”The decisive battle in Beihai is a key point, and it is also the beginning of the Eastern Palace Dynasty, Li Tianlan must be in it, this is a step he must take.Bai Qingqian couldn't stop it, and he didn't think about stopping it, but the worry in his heart never let go.It is said that there are several invincible realm masters involved in the decisive battle this time, and none of them will stand on the side of Beihai.Li Tianlan has not yet entered the invincible realm..."
Don't worry."
Dongcheng Invincible was silent for a while, and said with a smile: "Tianlan has grown to the point where he has now, and the worst result can also guarantee that he can retreat in the decisive battle." ”Bai Qingqian nodded pretentiously, and just as he was about to say something, a middle-aged woman who looked to be in her early fifties had already walked up lightly.Bai Qingqian glanced back, a little surprised, and said softly: "Sister-in-law Wu, what's the matter?"
”"Speaker, I was just about to cook, I saw a person standing outside, just standing like that, not moving, I asked the minister's guards, they said she was standing there in the middle of the night, the guards asked, the other party wanted to find you, but not let people disturb your rest, ah, I have been standing for hours."
Bai Qingqian stood up a little dazed, and said curiously: "Who?"
”"I don't know, I asked her who she was, and she didn't say."
Sister-in-law Wu shook her head.Bai Qingqian frowned and glanced at Dongcheng Invincible.The two of them got up and went downstairs at the same time, turning on the manor monitor in the living room.In the icy cold wind of the early morning, a somewhat thin figure appeared on the screen.Quiet, feminine, stunning, elegant.Bai Qing glanced at it, and the first feeling was that he didn't know it, and then he felt a little familiar.She thought for a while before she raised her eyebrows slightly, and said in surprise: "Lixi?!"
”Dongcheng Invincible nodded and said softly, "It seems to be true." ”......
