Just when a group of Jianghu warriors wanted to prove whether the Yibo Building in Ruyang was the Yibo Building in Dongdu, in a newly built house in the outer city,
An old man in a green shirt was sitting at the stone table under the pavilion with Meng Haoran, chatting happily.
This house occupies a large area. Ever since Yi Bo Lou retired from the world, the core masters have lived here. The Sword Master Pei Min also lives in this house.
At this moment, the stone table was filled with wine and food.
"Brother Haoran is not the kind of person who is born easily, but once he is born, how can he retire again?"
Picking up the wine cup, the old man in green shirt drank it intoxicatedly and said this.
"Haha, isn't that true, Brother Wang? Who would have thought that the famous Mojie layman would come back to the world one day?"
Seeing this, Meng Haoran laughed.
The old man in green shirt in front of him, whose surname is Wang Wei, is his best friend.
Wang Wei loves poetry, not to mention that he is also an eighth-grade master. In addition, he is also very accomplished in literature, Taoism and military strategy.
He was living in seclusion in a quiet place in a valley, but he didn't expect to arrive in Ruyang earlier today.
"Oh, isn't it all your fault, old friend?"
Wang Wei gently put down the wine cup, fearing that the wine in the cup would spill.
"Blame me?"
Meng Haoran was stunned.
Obviously he didn't expect his friend to say that.
"After you were born, you caused ups and downs in the world. You had hot pot meals, top-quality wine, and a battle with Tibet in the west of Chang'an. How could I still stay here when you were so interesting?"
Wang Wei smiled bitterly.
Sometimes it's like this. It would be okay if everyone went into seclusion, but after one by one is born, the remaining ones will naturally not be able to stay any longer.
"That's true..."
Meng Haoran smiled and nodded.
Wang Wei was right. The days he spent at Yibo Tower were indeed carefree and unrestrained, far better than before.
"Brother Haoran, I have to say that this wine is as wonderful as the legend says, absolutely amazing!"
After a pause, Wang Wei couldn't help but glance at the hot pot and Maotai on the stone table, and gave a thumbs up.
Along the way, rumors about Yibo Tower were everywhere in the world.
When I saw it today, it certainly lived up to its reputation.
"That's... this fine wine and meal are a rarity for outsiders, but for the people of Yibo House, they are home-cooked food and wine!"
A hint of pride flashed across Meng Haoran's face.
It is said that during this period, Ruyang's wine cellars began to produce wine again. In addition to Maotai, they also produced a spirit named Wuliangye by the owner. This wine is not inferior to Maotai at all.
These cannot be purchased by outsiders.
"Too!"
Wang Wei nodded heavily.
"By the way, Brother Wang, what are your plans next? The court is currently undergoing great changes..."
After a pause, Meng Haoran said again.
"This... I haven't thought about it yet!"
When it comes to the changes, Wang Wei couldn't help but sigh.
I think that when he left his seclusion, the Tang Dynasty was still the same Datang Dynasty. In less than a month, the Tang Dynasty was already alive.
"In this case... why not stay in Ruyang? There are many friends here, and most of them are people with similar interests. For example, there is a guard in Yangguan named Cen Shen. This man is also a great talent. If brothers are free...
.. Wouldn’t it be nice to recite poems and write poems together?”
Upon hearing this, Meng Haoran was overjoyed and said hurriedly.
I have a good brother here, so I don't want him to leave so easily.
"Oh? Are there any like-minded people?"
Wang Wei couldn't help but feel a little moved.
Whether it's hot pot, fine wine, or these good friends, they are all reasons for him to stay.
"Well, brother Yu will introduce you someday."
"But...even if my brother agrees, the Lord of Ruyang..."
After thinking for a moment, Wang Wei still hesitated.
I have to say that the current Yibo Building is really stronger than ever before.
If it were given to other forces, it would be a great thing for an eighth-grade warrior to want to join, but now this eighth-grade warrior wants to join Yibo Tower, but he is still worried about whether he is qualified.
In this way, we can see the strength of Yibo Tower.
"Don't worry, brother, my lord is very thirsty for talents. If a brother can join my lord, why shouldn't he agree? In this way...Brother Yu will take you to see my lord tomorrow morning!"
Seeing that Wang Wei had already agreed, Meng Haoran said hurriedly.
"That's...that's good!"
"Come... have wine! Have wine!"
"Eat wine!"
.......
The words were divided into two sides. Just when another eighth-level warrior in the world joined Yibo Tower,
A man in his sixties, wearing a brocade robe, with a face as deep as water, sat on the main seat.
The man is none other than Li Feng, King of Xiangyang.
At this moment, there are several people in the lobby, none other than the five kings of the Li family.
It is said that Li Feng, the king of Xiangyang, is also a disciple of the Li family, but he is the fifth brother of Li Longji. Therefore, Li Feng and the five kings of the Li family are serious cousins.
It's just that after Li Feng became king, he also received the title of Jiedushi, so that he could take charge of a place after the chaos.
Let's talk about Li Yuan and other five kings. After they occupied Chang'an at Anlu Mountain, they quietly took their people to defect to Li Feng.
Being a member of the Li clan is extremely dangerous. Xiangyang King Li Feng and Liang King Li Xuan have undoubtedly become the biggest backers. The five kings are relatively close to Li Feng.
Only then did the scene unfold before our eyes.
"Your Majesty, Xiangyang is bordered by Jiannan to the west and Lingnan Army to the east. If we don't expand the army early, I'm afraid..."
After a pause, the boss Li Yuan spoke.
Because they were all brothers of the Li family, Li Yuan and others became Li Feng's right-hand man after they took refuge in Li Feng.
"Expanding the army? Now that the situation has just begun, is it too urgent to expand the army?"
Hearing this, Li Feng frowned.
Doesn't he know that the 50,000 troops under his command are not enough in front of this force, but Xiangyang's economic strength is average, and expanding the army requires not only population but also money.
Without money, there is no food, wages, and equipment.
Also, even if you have money now, you may not be able to buy armor and war horses!
"Your Majesty, brother, I have a plan. If it succeeds, it will not only expand the prince's territory, but also achieve the need to expand the army, so that the Jiannan Army and the Lingnan Army will not dare to act rashly."
At this time, Li Yuan said again.
"Oh? Tell me."
Li Feng's expression changed.
If such a thing really existed, that would be great.
"Incorporate Ruyang Li Mo!"
When Li Yuan said this, his eyes were full of coldness.
The hatred of Li Mo by the five kings of the Li family has reached an extreme point. Even now, there is a huge amount of white linen paper in Xuanhe Village in Luoyang, which is all waste.
In the eyes of the Five Kings, this was all caused by Li Mo.
Unfortunately, Li Mo was later appointed as the Jiedushi of Ruyang by the emperor, so they could only break their teeth and swallow them, thinking they were unlucky.
Jiedushi was already someone they couldn't afford to offend.
I thought I might never have the chance to cause trouble for Li Mo again in this life.
The result...it really came!
"What? Incorporate Li Mo?"
Li Feng was stunned immediately and couldn't believe his ears.
