Li Mi finally came back from the palace, Zhen Mi and the others couldn't help but be overjoyed, after all, Li Mi had been gone for two or three days, and there was no news, and they even found Wu Weizhong's side.

It's a pity that Wu Weizhong has already gone to Jinzhou and other places to prepare for the war, and it will take a few days to come back to participate in the martial arts palace examination, so there is no way to inquire.

Now that Li Mi is back, he has a lot of questions to ask, but it can be seen that Li Mi's expression is not worried, and everyone tacitly does not talk much.

Li Mi is indeed a little disheartened, people say that the royal family has no family affection, and he also has a deep understanding at this time.

In any case, he had a life-saving grace for Zhu Yijun, but because of the obstruction of the holy decree, all the kindness was canceled out all of a sudden.

However, Li Mi also thought very clearly, favors belong to favors, and he can't use favors to hold the state politics hostage, he is not a central courtier, and it is already a taboo to intervene in the mining tax this time, and he also owes a life-saving grace, otherwise it is uncertain whether he can come back.

As for whether he can be reused by Zhu Yijun in the future, Li Mi has no bottom in his heart, if his adventure can be successfully promulgated by the household department and completely cancel the mining tax, it will be regarded as a good thing, and there will be no obstacles in his heart.

In the next few days, as Li Mi expected, the Ming Dynasty was like the information vessels of the entire empire, and the holy decrees and official documents spread out from the heart of Beijing, and they spread all over the world in a few days!

The people of Beizhili took the lead in starting to celebrate, and this celebratory atmosphere detonated from the outside to the inside in Beijing, almost jubilating the government and the opposition!

This kind of atmosphere is also beyond Li Mi's expectations, and the hottest topic on the streets and alleys is nothing more than this.

However, Li Mi is also worried that the more jubilant the people are, the more it shows that he hates the mining tax, which is also a slap in the face of Zhu Yijun.

But from another point of view, Zhu Yijun's abolition of the mining tax is not a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and it is worth remembering and praising the people?

It is said that Concubine Wang Gongfei and Zhu Changluo both participated, and the effect was good, Zhu Yijun's body also recovered quickly, and everything seemed to return to normal.

In view of this, the work of the Wuju Palace Examination was also put on the agenda, and the Wuju people from all over the country also began to move around, and the city of Beijing was still lively, but Li Mi's side was deserted.

Wang An and Tian Yi never came, and they were not summoned in the palace, Wu Weizhong still did not come back, Qi Chu followed Wu Weizhong out, and Li Mi was half an acquaintance and could not see him.

Matteo Ricci and Luo Ruwang were in Beijing, but they did not come to visit Li Mi, perhaps because they could not know Li Mi's residence.

It seems that the whole world has forgotten such a person as Li Mi, although Zhen Mi, Qin Liangyu and others are a little anxious for Li Mi, but Li Mi is happy and quiet.

Although Li Mi was depressed after returning from the palace, what the whole country celebrated was that some news came out, Zhen Mi and others were good at collecting intelligence, and they soon got the news, and came back to confront Li Mi, and only then did they know what happened.

They are all folk people, if it weren't for this, they wouldn't be so resistant to the imperial court, and after hearing Li Mi's approach, they regarded Li Mi as a civilian hero, but this kind of thing must not be said, after all, Li Mi will still be in the officialdom in the future.

Seeing that the day of the martial arts hall test was approaching, Zhao Guangling and Zhang Huangting were also making final preparations, but Li Mi did not make any moves.

He is not to lead the troops to fight, the reason why he relies on martial arts is to have a serious background, and now he already has it, and the palace test or ranking is only secondary.

In Li Mi's view, Xie Yuan is also a martial artist, and the last one is also a martial artist, there may be some differences in the army, or even a big one, but Li Mi has no intention of joining the army, so there is no difference.

In this way, Li Mi was idle for a few days, wandering around with Zhen Mi, familiarizing himself with the environment, and casually inquiring about what Zhou Yu did.

As soon as I returned to my residence on this day, I saw the sound of a fight inside, Li Mi and Zhen Mi glanced at each other, and hurriedly ran into the yard, but saw two figures fighting in the yard!

One of them is Qin Liangyu, and the other is tall, and the two of them are shaking their spears, and the fight is inseparable!

"Xiong Tingbi?"

Li Mi also couldn't cry or laugh, Zhao Guangling and Zhang Huangting have been fighting with Qin Liangyu in the past few days, but they have won less and lost more, Xiong Tingbi came to the door today, but he didn't expect to fight with Qin Liangyu.

This palace test is also unprecedented, martial arts people from all over the world gather in Beijing, and it is also a gathering of heroes, Xiong Tingbi as Huguang Jieyuan, he is also famous among the martial arts people, I didn't expect to beat Qin Liangyu, and I tried my best for a while, but I couldn't take advantage of it.

He looked at Ruya, who was actually a very irritable character, and immediately threw away the wooden gun, waved his hand and said, "If you don't fight, you won't fight!" I said I wouldn't hit women! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he was taken by Qin Liangyu with a shot, and fell out with a pop!

Zhao Guangling also laughed, and sneered on the side: "If you can't beat it, you can't beat it, if Miss Liangyu participates in the palace examination, she will be the champion of martial arts this time!" ”

Qin Liangyu is a dead man, he has already seen through the world, and he doesn't care about any male and female etiquette, he hugged his fists at Zhao Guangling and said: "Zhao Gongzi praised it falsely, a woman is a woman, and it is difficult to get into ......the lobby after all."

Zhao Guangling pointed at Zhang Huangting with ill intentions and said, "Isn't this a woman who can also take the martial arts exam?" ”

He actually didn't know the secrets of Zhang Huangting's body, he just joked that Zhang Huangting was becoming more and more feminine, if it was usual, Zhang Huangting would not care, but would ridicule each other, but today's Zhang Huangting is becoming more and more feminine, but this time he ran away in anger!

Xiong Tingbi was confused, and the atmosphere was really a little embarrassing, so Li Mi took the opportunity to walk in and said to Zhao Guangling.

"Your mouth is much better than your hands and feet!"

Zhao Guangling also knew that he was joking too much, and it was rare for Li Mi to come out to play a round, so he smiled and said: "There are a lot of Huangting brothers, I said the wrong thing, can't I invite you to Yulong for dinner in a while." ”

Zhang Huangting was just about to run out, just when Li Mi stopped him, and at this time he said to Zhao Guangling: "Anyway, the ancestor has also been the emperor, and you are embarrassed to invite Ke Yulong in such a cold place?" ”

Zhao Guangling also smiled and said: "Cheng, as long as the Huang Ting brothers dissipate their anger, they can go anywhere!" ”

Zhang Huangting eased his face at this time, after all, he also knew that he was too abnormal, and if he continued like this, the palace test might be exposed, so he would be restrained.

Xiong Tingbi took the Huguang first place, and Li Mi was not surprised, but when Xiong Tingbi asked about their rankings, Li Mi was a little embarrassed.

At the beginning, when the King of Chu performed martial arts, almost all of the most prominent people were in this courtyard, but Xiong Tingbi deserved his name and had to understand the Yuan, but Li Mi and the three were the last one, two, three, which was a little funny.

However, Xiong Tingbi is a very smart person, and it is not very strange to think about the identities of Zhao Guangling and Zhang Huangting.

After greeting for a while, Zhao Guangling invited guests to dinner, and it was inevitable that there would be a lively reunion after a long absence.

This was eating, but the family came to the door, saying that Wu Weizhong was back, and invited Li Mi to the general's mansion to eat.

Although Xiong Tingbi knew that Li Mi was Wu Weizhong's righteous son, he always thought that Li Mi was just clinging to Wu Weizhong, but he didn't expect Wu Weizhong to invite Li Mi to come to the door as soon as he came back, and he really regarded Li Mi as a son, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

After all, he is a humble scholar, but even Li Mi, who started as an apprentice, has a backstage like Wu Weizhong, and although he is a famous Huguang, he is helpless in the capital......

Li Mi is such a careful person, he can naturally see Xiong Tingbi's worries, and at this time he said to the people of the Wu Mansion.

"Go back and talk to my father-in-law, eat and drink with friends tonight, and visit him tomorrow morning."

The errand of the Wu Mansion said to Li Mi: "Master Li, the head of the family said that I have to invite you over no matter what......"

Zhao Guangling said to Li Mi: "Okay, today is the east of me, it's the same if you're not there, we can eat more if you're not there, hurry up and get out of yours!" ”

Zhao Guangling was understanding, but Li Mi didn't want to do this, so he said to him: "Are you great at doing the east? I invite you to the General's Mansion for a banquet! ”

Zhao Guangling also knew that Li Mi didn't want them to feel favoritism, so he followed Li Mi's intention and said: "Okay, Hengzhu hasn't been to the General's Mansion either, let's follow you to eat!" ”

Zhao Guangling said this, and everyone had no opinion, but Wu Fu's errand was a little embarrassed, and whispered to Li Mi: "Master, is this really good......

Li Mi waved his hand and said to him, "It's okay." ”

Saying this, a group of people left the restaurant and came to the general's mansion, this was also the first time Li Mi came to Wu Weizhong's mansion, and he didn't have any gifts in his hand, so he simply asked the people in the restaurant to come over with a few tables of wine and food.

This general's mansion is very low-key, which is very in line with Wu Weizhong's style, and after Li Mi arrived, he walked in with his friends.

Only then did he walk into the courtyard, and he saw seventeen or eighteen black-armored guards chatting in the courtyard, and Li Mi was immediately overjoyed, because they were Qi Chu's brothers!

"Everybody's back! My eldest brother Qi! ”

Everyone saw that it was Li Mi, and they were also jubilant, after all, almost a year had passed since Chongmingsha separated, and they were happy to meet again this time, they were unwilling to be loyal to the imperial court, but only willing to follow Li Mi!

"Your eldest brother Qi is here! Hahaha! Qi Chu walked out of it, dressed in the military uniform of a general, really like a god general, and his demeanor was compelling, Zhao Guangling and Xiong Tingbi were dizzy and fascinated!

Since returning from Chongmingsha, with the help of Wu Weizhong, Qi Chu has also verified his identity, and the official has been reinstated, and the grievances suffered by Qi Jiajun in the past have also been compensated, and more importantly, Wu Weizhong and Qi Chu have finally helped Qi Yin successfully rehabilitate!

Therefore, Qi Chu is even more high-spirited, this time he can be reinstated and participate in the upcoming war, he is also ambitious, and he is happy to see Li Mi!

Li Mi saw that he was radiant and regained his fighting spirit, and he was happier than anything else, the two of them were chatting outside, and Li Mi introduced the others to Qi Chu.

Zhen Mi is just a few people, he is Li Mi's cronies, and he is no stranger to Qi Chu, but Zhao Guangling, Xiong Tingbi, Qin Liangyu and others have admired Qi Jiguang and Qi Jiajun for a long time, especially the legendary story of Qi Jiguang's tears and beheading, it was Qi Yin who was killed, and when he heard the name of Qi Chu at this time, he was so excited that he couldn't speak.

Qi Chu saw it one by one, and he didn't have any severance, and then smiled at Li Mi: "Brother, you are so bold......

Li Mi was clueless at first, and Qi Chu didn't explain much, but when he walked into the hall, he realized what Qi Chu meant.

Because a banquet was being held in the hall, in addition to Wu Weizhong, there were more than a dozen people, all of whom were wearing official robes, and they swept their eyes around, and the lowest was also a garrison, full of high-ranking officers!

Li Mi finally understood that Wu Weizhong asked him to come to dinner as soon as he came back, in fact, he wanted to introduce all the connections in the military world to Li Mi, so that Li Mi would be familiar with him.

As a result, Li Mi brought Zhao Guangling and others over......

However, Li Mi didn't have too much embarrassment, because Xiong Tingbi had great achievements in the future, and he could be called a figure like the Great Wall of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty, so he just took advantage of this opportunity to pull him and help him to take the position!
