Reborn in the Water Margin as emperor, built tanks to level the world

After several days of preparation.

Zhao Ji has already made all the plans for the trip.

But when it came time to figure out who to bring out of the palace to play with him this time, Zhao Ji struggled for a long time.

Because according to Zhao Ji's original plan, he wanted Liu Xiangning to accompany him.

In this way, Zhao Ji will not feel bored every time he takes a break.

But Zhao Ji was afraid that doing so would make other concubines in the harem jealous, so he went to his residence again and again to complain to him.

After much thought, Zhao Ji had no choice but to let go of the idea first.

Zhao Ji's trip can be said to be quite grand.

There are countless accompanying people.

On the way, wherever the dragon passed by.

Both the local generals and the first constitutional officials all bowed down and greeted him with courtesy.

It's really a great show.

And when Zhao Ji and others arrived at Dongping Mansion.

That time was already more than ten days later.

Before that, Cheng Wanli was extremely looking forward to Zhao Ji coming over.

But he was still not sure whether Zhao Ji could really come over.

After all, with Zhao Ji's wealth, if there was nothing important, how could he possibly come to visit his land as soon as he asked?

Although before that, he had already sent many benefits to Cai Jing.

But even so, Cheng Wanli still didn't have that confidence in his heart.

Until Zhao Ji's dragon driver really came to Dongping Mansion.

The big stone in Cheng Wanli's heart has just fallen to the ground.

Cheng Wanli, the governor of Dongping Prefecture, was extremely flattering when entertaining Zhao Ji.

All the good things in the government office have always been taken out regardless of the cost.

It’s time to accompany Zhao Ji and watch the dozens of ice-carved lanterns.

He even called all the officials from nearby state capitals to act as foils.

The principle of making this ice sculpture lamp is not much different from the ice sculpture lamps Zhao Ji saw in later generations.

It's just that the electric lamps placed in the ice sculptures in later generations were replaced with candle lamps wrapped in red oil paper.

But even so, under the careful carving of those craftsmen, these dozens of ice-carved lanterns are like treasures passed down from generation to generation, extremely beautiful!

Cheng Wanli, who was walking beside him, saw Zhao Ji getting happier and happier as he walked around.

I was so excited that even when I spoke, there was a slight tremor:

"Guan family, after our group has finished admiring the ice sculpture lanterns, Wei Chen has specially prepared dozens of delicacies for Guan family."

"It will definitely satisfy the official family later."

After hearing this, Zhao Ji turned to look at Cheng Wanli who was walking beside him.

Although there was a big smile on his face, there was a lot of slander in his heart.

It seems that you, the prefect, have gained a lot of public support during your tenure.

If not, how could you afford such extravagance with your monthly salary?

If you have any flaws in the future, I, as the governor of Dongping Prefecture, will have to take good care of you.

After everyone admired the ice sculpture lanterns, they were all invited into his prefect's mansion by Cheng Wanli.

And that place has long been filled with jade plates and delicacies.

Zhao Ji sat in the main seat.

On both sides of him were two officials, one civil and one military.

The civil official was Cheng Wanli, the prefect.

As for the military attache, it was Dong Ping, the military commander of the city here, who was known as the Double Spear General.

When Cheng Wanli introduced Dong Ping to Zhao Ji, when Zhao Ji turned his head slightly, he saw only a handsome military general.

This man has a tall build and thick brows.

He has a stern face, a broad waist and a broad back, and his arms are quite long.

He was wearing a black outfit.

Although there was a smile on his face at this time, the murderous aura in his body could not be concealed no matter what.

Regarding Dong Ming, Zhao Ji's thoughts were quite complicated.

On the one hand, this person has super strong military force and is very brave when leading troops.

On the other hand, in the original work, what he did by killing his father and seizing his daughter was really difficult for Zhao Ji to accept.

Zhao Ji didn't pay much attention to this controversial figure.

Because at this moment, Cheng Wanli not only called out all the singing and dancing girls in the government office.

Even his precious daughter Cheng Waner was specially arranged by him to be next to Zhao Ji.

To serve him drinking and dining.

This Miss Cheng Waner is really a gentle woman.

If nothing else, just her cute and well-behaved appearance is enough to make many men in the world fall in love with her and be unable to extricate themselves.

This is a pretty standard classical beauty.

Her eyebrows are delicate and her lips are petite and rosy.

Although the small face has a bit of baby fat, it does not ruin its overall beauty in the slightest.

On the contrary, it makes the feminine charm even better.

The red lips are slightly opened, and the teeth are opening and closing.

The soft and waxy clip sound only made Zhao Ji feel soft in his heart and tight in his throat.

It's just that the beauty, a touch of sadness between her eyebrows, can't go away no matter what.

Zhao Ji was so close to Cheng Wan'er, so he naturally saw all the sadness in his eyes.

Combined with this, Dong Ping was reluctant to see Cheng Wan as a child.

Zhao Ji already understood in his heart that these two people were a pair of mandarin ducks.

And the reason why Cheng Wan'er is sitting next to him at this moment is to accompany him.

Most likely, he was forced to come here by his father.

In this regard, Zhao Ji didn't say much.

But in my heart, I always feel weird.

I always feel like I have become that lewd thieves and thug who forced a good girl.

The welcome banquet lasted for nearly two hours before it came to an end.

Just when Zhao Ji wanted to return to the temporary palace built for him by Cheng Wanli with the help of Eunuch Sheng.

That Cheng Wanli took advantage of others' unpreparedness and quietly came to Zhao Ji's side.

Just when Zhao Ji was full of doubts and didn't know what the other party meant by this move...

Then he saw Cheng Wanli suddenly taking a huge box from the servant's hand.

When it was slowly opened, countless gold and silver jewels inside were immediately displayed in front of Zhao Ji's eyes.

May I ask what Zhao Ji lacks most now?

What is most lacking is gold and silver, isn’t it?

According to Zhao Ji's estimation, this box of gold and silver jewelry must be at least 10 taels!

Just as Zhao Ji was looking at the large box of gold and silver jewelry, he was in a daze.

Cheng Wanli, who was standing aside, quickly said to him again:

"In the official family, these things were all donated by the wealthy gentry under the rule of the humble minister when he was in office."

"They were grateful that the ministers were able to govern well and manage the government in a sound way, which allowed them to accumulate some small wealth."

"I am also grateful to the minister for his kindness and blessings to the people after he took office."

"That's why under the voluntary organization, these were sent to Wei Chen one after another."

"But I have been honest for a long time, but I don't know how to use these gold and silver properties."

"It happens that the official is here at this moment, so I will give all these gifts to the official."

"I hope the officials will never refuse."

Zhao Ji shook his head slightly, with a look of helplessness on his face:

"Cheng Aiqing, what are you doing?"
