The rows of seats were filled with delicacies from land and sea. In such a harsh military camp, those luxurious and expensive things were very out of place.
Many generals sat at their seats, looking at the delicacies in front of them with a look of confusion on their faces.
Xiao Shengxing sat in the main seat, glanced at the dishes, and his face darkened.
Su Lijin was secretly shocked. This General Li might not just be having a simple meal today.
Unaware of the changes above, General Li enthusiastically pulled a woman over and introduced her, "Your Majesty, this is my daughter, Li Furong. You may stay by your side and serve closely."
The meaning of leaving a minister's daughter to serve is self-evident.
"Your Majesty, your servant, pays homage."
Li Furong looked at Xiao Shengxing shyly and bowed, with a hint of admiration in her eyes. Then, she glanced at the woman beside her.

After Su Lijin finished speaking, General Li's expression became somewhat tense.
She continued calmly, "General Li's salary shouldn't be enough to buy so much, right? Could it be that General Li embezzled military funds?"
Xiao Shengxing's eyes immediately swept over, and General Li's face turned pale, and he fell to his knees on the ground with a thud.
"Your Majesty, please spare my life. I only held this banquet to celebrate our victory..."
"Your Majesty, please forgive my father. I am willing to make porridge for him as an atonement for his mistake."
Li Furong also knelt down and lowered her head.
