The first floor of the world.

"Get up, you and I don't have to be so polite, and those who don't know are not guilty."

Li Wuji walked up to Luo Ping, and as he spoke, he reached out and helped Luo Ping up from the ground.

"Thank you for your generosity."

Luo Ping said gratefully, got up slowly, and his face was full of respect.

"Sit down."

Li Wuji smiled and motioned for Luo Ping, who was still a little nervous, to sit down.

"Master Xie."

Luo Ping agreed, and slowly sat next to Li Wuji.

Cao Zi'an stepped forward and personally poured a cup of tea for Luo Ping.

"Master Hou, please rest assured, from now on, as long as you have a place to get the lower officials, despite your words, the lower officials will definitely go all out and never give up."

Luo Ping picked up the teacup with both hands, watched Li Wuji finish speaking seriously, and then raised his head and drank it all.

Li Wuji smiled, symbolically picked up the teacup and took a sip, which was considered to be a complete acceptance of Luo Ping's confession.

Xiao Hongxing went to the capital to report to the official, although Luo Ping later reported to the military department, but he didn't take it to heart, until he heard that the Jinling army had caught the mountain bandits, and heard that Xiao Hongxing not only took back the robbed goods, but also took over half of the Xiao family's industry, then he knew that Xiao Hongxing was actually the person who left Anhou!

Thinking about the fact that he didn't take Xiao Hongxing's report to heart at the beginning, he couldn't sleep and eat, so he finally had to disguise himself and come to the door to apologize.

Among them, there is also the reason why Li Wuji dealt with the Lingyao Sword Sect in the end, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that the current Li Anhou has become more and more favored by the royal family.

"Commander Luo is serious, although Benhou has no official position, but you and I are colleagues, there is no need to be so polite."

"What's more, if you don't give up this kind of thing, it's better to say less in the future."

Li Wuji smiled, picked up the teapot himself, and said with a smile.

"Xia Guan understands!"

Luo Ping was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, hurriedly agreed, respectfully raised the cup, and handed it to Li Wuji.

Li Wuji smiled, slowly filled Luo Ping's teacup, and didn't say anything more.

Luo Ping is a smart person, and there are some things that need not be said too clearly.

Next, the two chatted with each other, and the atmosphere gradually became less tense than at the beginning.

At this moment, Dillon, who had just left the room, returned to the door of the room, holding a prayer note in his hand.

"Childe, I just received a letter of worship from Xiao Gongzi, please come to Juxian Residence tonight."

Dillon bowed, and as he spoke, he sent the prayer note in his hand to Li Wuji.

Li Wuji took the post, opened it and glanced at it, with a faint sneer on the corner of his mouth.

"It seems that Xiao Ergongzi has a good personal relationship with Hou Ye."

Luo Ping, who was on the side, glanced at it and said with a smile, with a hint of sourness in his words.

"Friends only."

"Come, tea."

Li Wuji smiled, responded casually, and raised his glass and said.

Luo Ping hurriedly raised his glass with both hands, signaled, and took a sip respectfully.

The word friend is a very rare title in this deceitful capital, especially to be able to become friends with the rightful favored Li'anhou, I don't know how many people in this capital are wishing.

Thinking of this, Luo Ping couldn't help but rejoice, fortunately, Xiao Hongxing's matter had been successfully resolved, otherwise if there was any mistake, Li Anhou would definitely be angry with him.

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a long time, Luo Ping reluctantly got up to say goodbye and quietly left from the backyard.

After Wuji Mu sent Luo Ping away, a sneer flashed at the corner of his mouth.

For Luo Ping's tireless flattery, he basically went in and out of his left ear, and he didn't take it seriously, because Luo Ping, who was in the court, was different from Xiao Hongxing, such a person would see the wind and rudder the most, and he only had interests in his eyes, and he would never be his friend.

...

In the evening.

Juxianju.

When Li Wuji came to the door of Juxianju in a carriage, he found that Xiao Hongxing had already waited respectfully at the door to greet him, and Zhu Hexuan was also there.

"Childe!"

"I've seen the departure!"

As Li Wuji slowly walked out of the carriage, Xiao Hongxing and Zhu Hexuan stepped forward at the same time and saluted respectfully.

"No need to be polite."

Li Wuji waved his hand, got out of the carriage as he spoke, and walked straight inside.

Since it was a banquet, he only brought Lu Yuan alone.

When Li Wuji walked into the restaurant, he found that it was empty, and the entire restaurant, from the shopkeeper to the guys, was all standing respectfully on both sides, ready to serve him.

Only then did he know that Xiao Hongxing had already arranged a banquet in order to invite him to this meal.

"Is this necessary?"

Li Wuji turned his head to look at Xiao Hongxing, and asked with a smile.

"Hongxing just didn't want to disturb the interest of the son, so he took it upon himself to charter the entire restaurant."

"Tonight's Juxian Residence, only serving Gongzi alone."

Xiao Hongxing smiled embarrassedly, bowed his hand respectfully, and invited Li Wuji all the way to the second floor and entered the largest box.

Zhu Hexuan has always been by his side, with a flattering smile on his face, wanting to interject, but he has never been able to find a suitable opportunity, so he can only keep laughing, looking like a fool.

After the three of them were seated, the shopkeeper of the restaurant personally urged the guys to serve the same wine and food to the table.

Looking at the wine and food in front of him, Li Wuji couldn't help but have a great appetite and drool.

To be honest, there have been so many things lately, and he hasn't had a good open meal for some days.

"Please, two?"

Li Wuji raised his hand to signal, and then he was no longer polite, picked up the chopsticks and ate them.

Today, Xiao Hongxing has put a lot of effort into it, not only did he charter the venue, but even the wine and food were the best, once upon a time, he was just a useless person who couldn't even pay for the wine.

In just half a month, it is almost a different kind of life.

After three rounds of wine, Xiao Hongxing picked up his wine glass and slowly stood up.

"Childe, although I have thanked you many times, I still can't fully express Hongxing's gratitude."

"Brother Zhu is right, you can't always put the word thank you on your lips all day long, you should always put it into action, so Hongxing will prepare a little wine tonight, I hope I can get drunk with my son."

"The redundant Hongxing won't say, and he doesn't want to boast about Haikou, there is only one sentence, Hongxing is a person who knows how to repay his kindness, and the future is long, and the son can just look at it."

Xiao Hongxing held the wine glass in both hands, looked at Li Wuji very seriously, and then raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, with a kind of firmness in his eyes that he had never seen before.

At this time, he was completely like two people compared to Xiao Hongxing, who he had seen at the tea stall at the beginning and only knew how to live with wine all day.

"Good!"

Li Wuji turned his head and glanced at Zhu Hexuan intentionally or unintentionally, nodded heavily, without any extra nonsense, raised his head and drank the wine in his glass.

Immediately, the two lit up the bottom of the cup and smiled at each other.

"Master Hou, Hexuan is fortunate to have met Master Hou through the light of Brother Xiao, it can be said that he is fortunate in three lives, if he can use Hexuan in the future, Hexuan will serve the work of dogs and horses!"

"My father often mentions Hou Ye, and his prestige is also thunderous, but he has been suffering from not having the opportunity to meet, and my father can only sigh at this often."

Zhu Hexuan also picked up a glass of wine, looked at Li Wuji with a reverent face, and said with emotion.

"Zhu Gongzi's words are serious, so that the honor is the head of the household, and he is deeply respected by His Majesty, he should be the pillar of my dynasty, and this marquis is just an idle marquis, without an official and a half-position, how can he climb high."

Li Wuji smiled and said casually.

"What is Hou Ye talking about, if I can make friends with Hou Ye, it will be a blessing for my Zhu family!"

Zhu Hexuan arched his hand and said very seriously.

"That's a big deal."

"But speaking of which, Ben Hou does have something that may trouble Ling Zun, and he must visit the mansion if he finds an opportunity."

Li Wuji smiled and said slowly.

"Really?"

"Since Hou Ye is willing to appreciate his face, it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, tomorrow I will ask my father to prepare a banquet and wait for Hou Ye to come, how about it?"

Listening to Li Wuji's words, Zhu Hexuan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said.

"Will it disturb Ling Zun?"

Li Wuji asked embarrassedly.

"No!"

"If my father knew that Hou Ye was willing to come to the door in person, he would definitely be happy."

Zhu Hexuan shook his head and replied affirmatively.

"Okay, then it's decided, tomorrow the Marquis will definitely go."

Li Wuji nodded and said with a smile.

Hearing Li Wuji's promise, Zhu Hexuan smiled happily, hurriedly filled his wine glass, and toasted Li Wuji again.

Xiao Hongxing, who was on the side, looked at the excited Zhu Hexuan, and couldn't help frowning, vaguely feeling that he was being used as a stepping stone...
