In Long'an City, the provincial capital of Longbei Province, bursts of salutes and firecrackers were fired.
Prince of Black Mountain Castle, Marshal of the Griffin Legion, Supervisor of the Black Mountain Special Zone, Prime Minister of Zhenjiang Province Lu Ming, and His Royal Highness Princess Alice visited Long'an City.
Ren Zhonglin, the governor of Longbei, led a group of civil and military officials to the airport to greet him.
Last year, Marshal Lu was still holding the title of "Advisor Member of the Longbei Provincial Council." However, after he married Princess Alice, his status immediately changed to "Permanent Honorary Councilor of the Longbei Provincial Council." long".
As for the Longbei Provincial Council, there is actually no president. The members are all elders of the Longbei faction, and they are a consultative body for all parties.
This "honorary dean" has a hidden status above all the elders of the Longbei faction. He is on an equal footing with the warlord Ren Zhonglin. It is naturally the highest honorary title in Longbei Province.
That night, a grand banquet was held at Ren Zhonglin's official residence to welcome His Royal Highness the Prince, His Highness the Princess and his wife.
At the dance, His Royal Highness the Prince and His Highness the Princess were naturally the absolute protagonists. The military and political elders of Longbei and their wives formed a circle around them and applauded the dancing couple. Many people's eyes were full of envy.
The image of the two dancing together was recorded by the photographer at the scene and became one of the most precious recorded images in history.
……
The Snow Garden is the villa of Mao Zhongyin, the richest man in Longbei, Ren Zhonglin’s father-in-law. It has just been built and is not yet occupied.
You cannot actually enjoy snow in the Snow Appreciation Garden. It is only a legend that snow once fell in the northern region. However, the garden has rugged rockeries and swaying pines and cypresses, giving it a bit of a winter scenery.
Now this garden was given to the prince and princess by Ren Zhonglin. More than ten days ago, water was poured into the garden, incense was used indoors, and the cleaning could not be more careful.
The palace is really as splendid as the palace in the previous life. It is seven rooms wide and has carved beams and painted columns. The father-in-law of the Northern Warlord is really not afraid of losing his life.
After entering the dormitory, Lu Ming stretched out his hand and stepped aside. Seeing Alice looking inside curiously, Lu Ming smiled and said, "You must be exhausted. Don't take a shower today. Just go to bed and rest!"
For banquets and dances, despite her young age, this little girl has an innate air of honor. In addition, she acts in a strict manner and speaks with dignity and dignity, making people forget her age.
Moreover, she probably has a special ability to influence the perception of people around her.
Even Lu Ming seemed to have had an illusion at that time, seeing the noble and bright princess in front of him.
But back at home, Lu Ming saw her frowning slightly when she entered the hospital. In order to make herself look as tall as possible, the high heels in her wide skirt were like stilts. It feels so uncomfortable to think about it.
"It's just once today. From tomorrow on, you don't have to show up. The rest are just some conspiracies and tricks. Just have fun and ask us to follow you. You don't have to entertain the local ladies. They also Not qualified."
Seeing what Alice wanted to say, Lu Ming reached out and picked up her little body, walked a few steps, and put her into the moon cave bed.
When Lu Ming moved, Alice did not struggle and let him do what he did.
The bed is very big, perhaps four meters long and more than two meters wide. It is covered with brand-new bedding and bright yellow bedding, which is extremely soft.
Lu Ming untied the pair of self-made sky-high ties in Alice's skirt, took them off her snow-white lace feet, and said with a smile: "Have a good rest and take a shower tomorrow morning. I’ll give you a new one tomorrow.”
Alice did not speak, her big blue eyes blinked, and she just looked at Lu Ming quietly.
Lu Ming smiled, reached out and took out a lollipop from his arms, "Do you want another lollipop today?"
Alice's green eyes lit up and she nodded her little head.
"It's up to you today!" Lu Ming handed the lollipop to her, "But don't forget to ask Emily to help you rinse your mouth with a toothbrush before going to bed."
Alice nodded and said crisply: "Yes, I know."
Lu Ming was very happy. He had never called himself a bad guy since he had been in the Northern Territory, and he seemed to be very obedient.
It would be nice to stay like this forever.
But when he came out of the dormitory and saw the beautiful girl with silver hair and silver eyes standing outside the dormitory, Lu Ming felt a chill in his heart.
Emily, Alice's personal maid, has been with Alice since she was born.
Lu Ming had a vague feeling that this guy was a little weird, probably similar to Bi Zhu or Liu Li, and he was the protector beside Alice.
I didn’t know whether I was happy or worried for a moment, thinking wildly as I walked towards my dormitory.
……
Although Ren Zhonglin also likes to smoke a few puffs, the more intimate the appointments and the closer he gets to people, the more he likes to talk in the smoking room.
Dan and Lu Ming prepared fragrant tea and refreshments, obviously knowing that the prince hated the longevity ointment deeply.
The tea room where Lu Ming had a secret conversation was in the back house of the Governor's Mansion. Basically, even his closest subordinates had never been here. It was usually where he and his concubines played cards.
Ren Zhonglin is a skinny old man. His eyes are a little cloudy as he smokes a big cigarette, but occasionally he rolls his eyelids and his eyes shine. He is obviously a very shrewd person. His addiction to smoking is the root of his youth. He is a descendant of the upper class society in Longbei and has a good atmosphere. In this case, there is nothing we can do about it.
"Brother Xian, you also know that I am not the only one who has the final say in Longbei's affairs. My old brothers are more powerful than the others!" Ren Zhonglin drank tea, shook his head and sighed. .
Half an hour ago, he proposed to be friends with His Highness the Prince. No matter what he thought, Lu Ming could only agree.
Lu Ming understood that for the people of Central China, the oath of eight worshippers was probably more reliable than any secret agreement.
If you don't agree, it means that you don't really want to cooperate with him from the bottom of your heart, and it's more of a conspiracy.
Of course, the friendship between eight worshippers is also a combination of interests, but at the very least, there will be a certain moral binding force before both parties betray each other.
Ren Zhonglin proposed sworn sworn friendship as a test and a prerequisite for true cooperation.
If Ren Zhonglin does not agree, then it is impossible to achieve any results from today's talks.
Listening to Ren Zhonglin's words at this time, Lu Ming smiled: "Sun, Ma, Zhao, and Chen have all sent me posts. In the next few days, brother, I see that my schedule is fully booked."
Sun, Ma, Zhao, and Chen are the four major families in Longbei. Together with the Ren family, they rule Longbei.
Ren Zhonglin patted his forehead, "Damn, everyone is so impatient! Seeing that I have been suppressing them and standing still, they think I just want to maintain success and have no ambition to make progress, so they want to convince me through you. ! ”
Lu Ming smiled: "I can't wait to go to Anshan to share the fruits, but the people of Anshan are fierce, so it's better to make a plan before moving. Marshal Qi from Northern Xinjiang couldn't wait and sent troops ten days ago. Anshan, but I heard that he suffered a lot."
Ren Zhonglin snorted, "This Qi Huaide knows how to play with women's belly buttons. He is a handsome man with navels, so he is good at playing with women!" He glanced at Lu Ming and said, "Brother, that An Laoheng is a piece of shit. Are you dead? Why do I feel that your information is more accurate than mine?"
Lu Ming thought for a while, "From my intelligence network in Montenegro, I judge that there is a 90% chance that he has passed away. It must be that the An family has an expert to guide him and keeps the funeral secret. He wants to maintain this period so that his successor can take over smoothly."
"Damn! I knew it!" Ren Zhonglin slapped the table, "So, why are we sending troops now? Isn't it too unkind? Lao Navel is the most shameless person. He will take advantage when he sees it. And if you ask me, Anshan The poor people are making noises. If you really want to take care of things over there, you have to provide food for those poor people, otherwise you have to worry about them rebelling. The taxes collected are not enough to worry about! ”
Lu Ming smiled: "Brother, I disagree with this. In the current era of large-scale industry, labor is very important, especially cheap labor. As long as there is food to eat, labor that will not rebel is very precious. Resources."
Ren Zhonglin glanced at Lu Ming: "Brother is old and doesn't understand this anymore!"
Lu Ming pondered and said: "We can wait a little longer until the civil strife breaks out in Anshan. By then, our Black Mountain and Big Brother's Longbei Army can take joint military operations to maintain peace. An Laoheng owes Big Brother 20 million Right? We have to get this account back. In fact, this is not a private loan, but a public account, right? It is owed to Longbei Province by Anshan Province. Of course, this account cannot be changed just because Anshan has changed its government. Isn’t it yellow?”

Ren Zhonglin smiled: "Yes, brother Xian, what you are saying is that this is a public account. When I lent it to An Laoheng, I did not lend it to him privately." He breathed out comfortably, "Then this Guy, just die! My brother is very angry!"
