Chapter 43: The Identity of Mingyan
Tao Ranju Mingyan was overjoyed for Li Qing's revisit, the last time Li Qing was shocked but there was no trace, Mingyan didn't wait for Li Qing to come again, until he heard that Changsheng Camp was leaving the camp, this was desperate, knowing that the last time this elegant military general came here was completely for Huanji, he couldn't help but be a little more curious about Li Qing, generally speaking, this kind of young general with strong blood and strength rarely has such immunity to a woman like himself.
Welcomed the group in, compared with the banquet of big fish and meat in Xiao Yuanshan, it is much lighter and more elegant, a few seasonal side dishes, a few delicate snacks, a few warm pots of wine, and the Qingyue Zheng song with tea, but also the artistic conception is excellent, not interesting.
Lu Dalin and Li Qing both understand this kind of meeting, they don't need to say anything, just drink and eat food, talk about some wind and moon, occasionally involve the military, and only talk about some interesting things in the army, never involve anything else, but they are also happy and laughing constantly. As for a brave man Lu Dabing, he didn't care about what he had to do with Li Qing, anyway, he just had to follow his brother closely, sitting in the banquet, a pair of bull's eyes just aimed at Mingyan's body, very curious, and wondered what he didn't know was that this Mingyan didn't look outstanding, why did he go to Dingzhou, so that those experts in Dingzhou flocked to it, and they were proud to be able to meet and drink with her?
Needless to say, Lu Dalin has a good relationship with Li Qing now, and there is no loss for him to reach the line of the Li family, now there are no soldiers or generals in his hands, Xiao Yuan is no longer suspicious of him, of course, it is too early to let him get on the Li family's ship now, as long as Xiao Yuanshan does not collapse, he will never change the ship rashly.
For Li Qing, the relationship with Lu Dalin is just to bury a secret chess piece in the future, whether it can be used or not, but everything is pre-planned, and if it is not pre-planned, it will be wasted, first make a good relationship and then talk about it, maybe when it will be used.
For such a meeting, the two of them were in a very relaxed mood, Lu Dalin was really a little drunk this time, and at the second watch, when the song ended, when the people dispersed, without Lu Dabing's support, they were really unstable on their feet.
The three of them walked out of the small building and were about to say goodbye, when Mingyan's personal maid Huan Qing'er hurriedly ran over, blessed Li Qingfu, and said crisply: "Master Li, girl, please stay."
Li Qing couldn't help but be stunned, looking at Qing'er's eyes full of inquiry. The drunken Lu Dalin laughed, "Brother Li, you are blessed, you are blessed, according to legend, although this tea girl is famous, she has not yet entered the scene, it seems that this person has fallen on you, brother, brother here, I wish you a happy and happy night, and you want to die, hahaha!" With a wild laugh, he staggered away.
Puzzled, Li Qing returned to the small building, the room had already been cleaned up, and after welcoming Li Qing to the small building, Qing'er had already closed the door and left quietly. Looking at the red candles held high in the empty room and the smoke of cigarettes, Li Qing couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart, isn't there really peach blossom luck coming head-on, this tea smoke is going to stay by himself?
The door knocked slightly, Li Qing turned around, but saw that Mingyan had already changed his outfit, and the pink gauze on his original body had been taken off, replaced by a simple green shirt, with heavy makeup on his face gone, and his face was facing the sky. Compared with before, the color of the wind and dust is gone, but it is a little girl next door.
"It is worthy of being the best of the flowers, between the changes in this identity, he really has a good grasp of what he looks like! Li Qing secretly praised in his heart.
"Under the Li family, the shadow of the Dingzhou branch is smoking, knocking on the little waiting master! Mingyan bowed down, but the words that came out of Yingying Cherry's small mouth made Li Qing suddenly become a fool.
Secret agent? Beauty spy? Scouts? Li Qing couldn't connect these words with the woman in front of him, looking at the cigarette that fell in front of him, he opened his mouth and his brain crashed.
Mingyan, who bowed her head and fell in front of Li Qing, didn't hear Li Qing's voice for a long time, but Li's strict system of superiority and inferiority made her dare not look up at Li Qing, Li Qing didn't know her identity before, she could do it according to her original identity, but she had already indicated her identity, the huge difference between the two couldn't help but make her feel frightened, she knew clearly, don't look at herself as famous, but Li really wants to clean himself up, it can be said that it is effortless. What's more, he was born in the Li family, grew up in the Li family, and was created by the Li family, for the Li family, it is already like a parallel vine climbing on the tree.
After waiting for a while, there was still no response, Mingyan finally couldn't help but raise his head, Li Qing's face in front of him was extremely strange, and the eyes looking at him could be said to be extremely weird, tilting his head, raising a hand, like a wood carving clay sculpture.
"Little Waiter? Tentatively and softly, "What's wrong with you?" "
Li Qing's body shook suddenly, shook his head vigorously, sobered himself up, looked at Mingyan who was still lying on the ground, and tried to make himself accept this fact, and said in an extremely strange tone: "You, you get up first and tell me what's going on?" "
Mingyan got up and said, "Little Waiter, please sit down, Mingyan knows that this is very abrupt, please let me talk slowly and listen to my son!" "
Li Qingpan sat on the side of the desk, resting his elbows on the desk, rhythmically knocking on the desk, and snorted coldly: "Don't call me any little master, I'm not a little master, or call a general, right?" "
Mingyan smiled slightly, although the life experience of this little Hou Ye is a taboo in the Li family, but for these people, it is not news, seeing that Li Qing is very disgusted with this title, he smiled and said: "I am from the Li family, and it seems to be out of sight to call the general, since you don't like the title of Xiao Hou Ye, I will call you Gongzi!" While smiling and talking, he lifted the teapot on the desk and poured Li Qing a cup of fragrant tea.
Li Qing looked at Mingyan with a side face, although she was facing the sky at this time, but after all, she had stayed in Fengyue Field for too long, every word and deed, a smile and a cheek, naturally brought a charming atmosphere, when it came to the words "call you son", her body was slightly sideways to Li Qing, her voice was like a turn, and her face was sad, which made people unbearable to refuse.
Li Qing had adjusted his mentality, and he also woke up from the shock just now, looking at Mingyan's face, he smiled and said, "It doesn't matter what you like to call, but you have to understand that you are not the previous Mingyan at this time?" Mingyan's body shook slightly, and Bing Xue was smart, and she immediately understood what Li Qing meant, and immediately restrained the charm that she unconsciously brought out.
"Sit here and tell me about it! Li Qing patted the side of the case and said.
"Yes, Childe! Mingyan sat down in a disciplined manner, cleared his throat, and said, "I am the person in charge of the Li Clan's Shadow Branch in Dingzhou, specializing in inquiring about news and transmitting intelligence."
In Mingyan's slow and clear explanation, Li Qing finally figured out the truth of the matter, the shadow of the Li family is a spy agency to put it bluntly, all over the country, of course, the other families who believe it will not be absent, but whether there is such a scale and rigor as the Li family, it is unknown. This shadow is huge, specializing in collecting all kinds of intelligence for the Li clan and reporting it to Yizhou and the capital, while Dingzhou is just a small-scale branch, after all, in the previous Dingzhou, the Li clan did not have the slightest foundation, and the identities of the people in the shadow were varied, penetrating into all aspects of Dachu, so to speak, what happened in any corner of Dachu, the Li family could know in a very short time.
"You should have known who I am, why are you telling me now? Li Qing asked.
Ming Yan said: "I also received a report after Shou Ninghou came to Dingzhou last time, and asked me to pay attention to Childe's actions, but even if I knew Childe's identity, without the order of the Shadow Headquarters, Mingyan didn't dare to reveal my identity in front of Childe."
Li Qing's eyes rolled, "So, now that you've been authorized, you can let me know your identity?" "
Ming Yan said: "I just received an order a few days ago, the Dingzhou Shadow Branch has been completely assigned to the command of Gongzi, from now on, I will no longer accept the order of the Shadow Headquarters, I am having a headache how to connect with Gongzi, I can't think of Gongzi to come to Taoranju." Mingyan smiled sweetly, "This makes Mingyan save trouble."
"Assign it to me? Li Qing frowned.
"Yes, that is to say, the Shadow Dingzhou Branch will belong to Childe from now on, and it will no longer have any connection with the headquarters, and the headquarters will also cut off all the dark lines with my branch."
Li Qing had to think about what Luoyang Li's move meant? A special department like Shadow would definitely be of great help to him, but he had to figure out the relationship between them. The shadow is Li's, of course, the Dingzhou branch is also Li's, and it can be seen from Mingyan's attitude that he is quite loyal to Li's, is this good or bad for himself? What does it mean that Li completely attributes the Dingzhou Shadow to himself?
