Taixue Palace.

A remote courtyard in the southeast corner.

Twenty years later, the Red Dust Gun reappeared in the world. In the first battle, Li Ziye experienced it personally and was beaten.

Excellent luck.

However, Li Ziye, who had become accustomed to being beaten, didn't care at all. There was no such thing as damage to his Taoist heart.

What kind of invincible posture can sweep across an era? I am invincible. That is not a question that Li can consider.

"senior."

After the contest, Li Ziye sat on another swing, looked at Nan'er who was practicing martial arts in front of him, and asked, "Do you think it is possible for Nan'er's martial arts talent to reach your level?"

On the swing beside her, Lu Baimei was sitting there, her eyes dull. After a moment, she replied, "It's not easy, it depends on her luck."

"Where's the hibiscus?"

Li Ziye changed the subject and said, "Can her skills with guns be as good as yours, senior?"

"able."

Lu Baimei responded.

Hearing this, Li Ziye looked thoughtful.

Sure enough, Hibiscus's martial arts talent is better than Nan'er's.

However, martial arts talent is just a reference. In terms of talent, he is just a scumbag, and he has not made it to where he is today.

"Senior, do you know who created Qianji Bailian?"

Li Ziye continued to ask, "That magical weapon is very good."

"Not sure."

Lu Baimei looked indifferent and said, "Concubine Jin gave it to her."

"Concubine Jin?"

Li Ziye looked stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and said in surprise, "Prince Wen's mother-in-law?"

He had read Prince Wen's archives and remembered that Prince Wen's mother-concubine seemed to be Concubine Jin.

"Um."

Lu Baimei nodded and responded.

Li Ziye's expression condensed and he asked, "Do many people know about this matter?"

"I'm the only one." Lu Baimei replied.

Li Ziye looked thoughtful when he heard the former's answer.

Senior Baimei's words revealed a lot of information.

Weapons of the level of Thousand Machines and Hundreds of Refinements are not something that ordinary people can make. If it was made by a great forger of the royal family, then there is no way that the Shang Emperor would not know about it.

If not, then where did Concubine Jin get such a magical weapon?

After thinking for a moment, Li Ziye jumped off the swing and said, "Senior, I'm going back first and will pick up Nan'er in the evening."

"The Commoner King."

On the swing, Lu Baimei looked at Nan'er in front of her and said calmly, "I don't care who you are, but protect Nan'er!"

Li Ziye paused, turned around, bowed his hands, and said, "Senior, I will remember what I said."

After saying that, Li Ziye walked away without saying another word.

In the courtyard, Lu Baimei was sitting on the swing, her eyes becoming dull again.

Outside the courtyard, Li Ziye looked back at the small courtyard behind him, his expression slightly condensed.

This senior Baimei is really not that simple.

He just showed a slight flaw and was noticed.

With the role of the Commoner King, he shouldn't be so concerned about Hibiscus.

Asking too many questions will naturally arouse suspicion.

They are all human beings.

Li Ziye withdrew his gaze and walked towards the outside of Taixue Palace.

There is someone whom it is time to pay a visit.

I've been too busy these days and haven't been able to take care of it.

However, just in case, I still have to take a trip.

Outside the Taixue Palace.

Li Ziye got on the carriage and left in front of Taixue Palace.

On the street, the carriage rumbled past and disappeared at the end of the street.

Half an hour later, the carriage stopped in front of Prince Jiuyou's Mansion.

Li Ziye walked down and walked straight to the front of the palace. He looked at the guards in front and said, "Two of you, let me know that the commoner king wants to see you."

"The Commoner King."

The two guards in front of the mansion looked shocked when they heard the person in front of them announcing their identity, and immediately saluted respectfully.

Then, one person hurried back to his hometown and went to report.

Not long after.

The guard walked back and said respectfully, "Prince of Commoners, Your Majesty invites you!"

"Good work."

Li Ziye stepped into the mansion and followed the guards towards the meeting hall of Prince Jiuyou's mansion.

Outside the meeting hall, King Jiuyou stood quietly, waiting in person.

At this time and that time, the commoner was crowned king, and his glory was endless. The Jiuyou King, who was already in decline, did not dare to neglect.

"Your Majesty!"

In front of the meeting hall, Li Ziye said politely, "I hope you won't be surprised if you come here uninvited."

"The King of Commoners is out of sight, please come inside." King Jiuyou said with a gentle expression.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Li Ziye responded and walked into the hall.

"Please take a seat."

In front of the tea table, King Jiuyou raised his hand and gestured.

Li Ziye nodded and sat down across from the tea table.

The servants of the mansion brought tea and then left.

"King Commoner, why are you here today?" King Jiuyou took a sip of tea and asked proactively.

"It's nothing important."

Li Ziye smiled and said, "We are both working for His Highness, so naturally we have to move around."

When King Jiuyou heard this, he sighed softly and said, "It's rare that King Commoner is willing to come to my place. There have been no guests in Prince Jiuyou's palace for a long time."

"Everyone in the world is short-sighted, so how can they understand that a moment of honor or disgrace cannot mean anything."

Li Ziye looked calm and said, "Your Majesty is still the King of Martial of Dashang. When the Blackwater Army is rebuilt, it will surely regain its former military power."

After hearing the words of the Common King in front of him, King Jiuyou silently put down the tea cup in his hand and said, "No wonder His Highness thinks so highly of the Common King. The Common King's mind and vision are indeed incomparable to ordinary people."

"The prince is overly praised."

Li Ziye picked up the tea in front of him and said, "I only believe in my own judgment. In the battle in the north, the prince was attacked from both sides and was attacked by a large-scale cavalry. Defeat was inevitable. It would be the same for anyone.

In the current situation, if Dashang wants to fight against the Eight Tribes of Mobei, it must continue to recruit troops. If you have soldiers, you must have generals. Dashang does not have many commanders who can fight, so reactivating the prince is a certainty!"

King Jiuyou was silent, and after a moment, he softly said, "I hope so."

Li Ziye narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw the reaction of the person in front of him.

It seems that there is really something hidden.

It seems that when King Jiuyou waited outside the palace all night and was summoned by Emperor Shang, there were some unknown secrets.

"My lord, if you need help with anything, please feel free to tell me."

Li Ziye took a sip of tea and said, "I have only just entered the court, and my foundation is still shallow. I really need friends like the prince."

When King Jiuyou heard this, his expression condensed and he said, "Why, when the commoner king's holy favor is in full swing, why would he choose a down-and-out person like me?"

“Because it’s always better to provide help in times of need than icing on the cake.”

Li Ziye said calmly, "It is precisely because of this reason that I choose to stand on His Highness's side. Similarly, friendship in times of adversity is the strongest."

King Jiuyou listened to the straightforward answer of the person in front of him. He clenched his hands tightly and said in a deep voice for a long time, "Now, although the imperial court is constantly recruiting troops, the previous wars have consumed a lot of troops in the hands of each King Wu, and they need to be replenished."

, in addition to this, it is not easy to rebuild the Qingyu Army, and it is almost impossible to form the Blackwater Army again in a short time."

"Understood."
