Zhennan Palace, reception room.
The banquet was quickly prepared. Xing Bang sat at the main seat, Li Jiye sat opposite him at the second seat, and below them sat dozens of generals, who were considered the highest echelons in the southern border.
Zheng Xiujun just exchanged a few words of greeting and did not attend. Zheng Yunxi and Han Bingying accompanied her to the villa that had been prepared in advance.
"Generals!"
Xing Bang spoke first, glancing at the generals with dignity and solemnity.
"Over the years, you have been guarding the border with all your might, despite the wind and rain, making the southern border so impregnable."
As he spoke, Xing Bang pointed at the jade cup in front of him and spoke loudly with great momentum.
"Change to a bigger bowl!"
Hearing this, the expressions of the generals sitting below were all lifted, and the atmosphere in the field suddenly changed, filled with heroic spirit.
Soon, the maid replaced all the bowls with large ones and filled them up.
Xing Bang picked up the stick casually.
"This first bowl of wine is offered by the king to all the generals. I hope you will continue to work hard and assist me in my career, so that I can achieve greater achievements."
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. We will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
More than a dozen generals held up their large bowls and spoke in unison.
"A hero must be true and a real man must be able to drink!"
"Dry!"
After he finished speaking, Xing Bang picked up the bowl and drank the whole bowl of wine in one gulp.
"Cheers to the prince, and to the little prince!"
The generals did not hesitate and drank up the wine in their bowls in one gulp.
Li Jiye was worthy of being the son of a general, and he drank the wine in one gulp.
Xing Bang laughed, "Okay, generals, we must drink to our heart's content today. No one can leave this door unless they get drunk."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a burst of happy laughter from the audience.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Afterwards, the scene became lively. All of them were veteran generals who had fought on the battlefield. There was no one who was shy. They all drank happily without any restraint.
"Also, I have something to state. I am just passing through the southern border this time and I don't have any special intentions."
Xing Bang finally explained that these people didn't know that he was going to Guangming City.
Suddenly coming to the southern border from the capital, these generals naturally had some guesses in their minds, but of course they would not think too much about anything bad.
Because Xing Bang's status in Dayu and his position and prestige in the hearts of these generals are absolutely irreplaceable.
To put it bluntly, basically no one would think about reorganizing military affairs or even seizing military power.
It can be said that if Xing Bang wanted to do this, he could do it easily.
If we don't think about these things, then the only thing left is whether there are any strategic intentions towards Nan Chu.
Of course there will be, just not now, and Xing Bang won’t say it until the time comes. Just explain it so that these generals will have peace of mind.
…
"Brother-in-law, I can't do it anymore..."
Two hours later, Li Jiye was drunk. This kid had a really good alcohol tolerance and drank more than twenty bowls of wine.
The generals also drank to their heart's content, their faces were red and their necks were thick, but although they enjoyed themselves to the fullest, no one got drunk.
After Li Jiye got drunk, everyone left.
Xing Bang was naturally fine. After Li Jiye was helped back to rest, he was led by the maid to the villa where Zheng Xiujun was.
