Xu Mo was full of joy that he could get the help of Liu Yan and Liu Xiu, the two bigwigs of the Nanyang wealthy family, this time, which added a lot of confidence to Xu Mo.

After Xu Mo settled in Liu Yan's mansion, when the weather was slightly cooler in the afternoon, Xu Mo went out with Liu Ji and Li Yi to the famous Jade Street in Wancheng and began to look for clues.

When he arrived at the jade street, Xu Mo was shocked, the jade business in Nanyang County was indeed worthy of its reputation, and a street was full of jade shops and processing workshops.

Li Yi said: "The jade of my Nanyang County is actually Dushan jade, and it is also the famous jade of my Han Dynasty, all the jade raw materials come from Dushan in the northwest of Nanyang County, and are processed in Wancheng and sold to various places. Therefore, there are more than 100 workshops and shops that process and sell jade in Wancheng!"

"More than a hundred!" Xu Mo was taken aback and said.

Xu Mo also thought in his heart, there are so many families, how easy it is to find the person who is the Jade Buddha in his hands!

Liu Ji next to him was a straightforward person, and said: "Xu Yingying, we have been ordered by Da Situ to help you find it, and we must find it!"

Xu Mo hugged his fist to one and said, "Then thank you from the bottom of my heart!"

It is indeed time-consuming to go to such a store, and it is necessary to ask again and again, and the afternoon time quickly passes.

The shops on this jade street are full of praise for the color and texture of this jade Buddha, and they all say that it is indeed the only jade produced in Nanyang County, but for the carving of this jade Buddha, they all say that their own family can not make it.

Especially for the line of small words seen on the jade Buddha: "The brilliance of the cloth, the brilliance of the Yaobi - Liu", all the shops said that no one in the entire Wancheng can embed the word into the jade......

Half a day, nothing was gained, and the shops on this street had only asked about twenty.

Trying to find out the origin of this Jade Buddha is indeed like looking for a needle in a haystack!

Xu Mo was indeed a little discouraged, Liu Ji looked at his displeasure on his face, and said, "You don't have to worry, if you can't find it, I will always accompany you to find it!"

Li Yi also echoed on the side.

Xu Mo also nodded, very grateful in his heart!

And so the day passed......

Back at Liu Yan's mansion, Xu Mo told Liu Xiu about the situation of going out to look for him today, and Liu Xiu also comforted him that it was still a long time and that he could find it slowly, and he was not in a hurry for a day or two.

On the morning of the second day, Xu Mo went to Jade Street with Liu Ji and Li Yi to explore again, but it ended in vain!

It's just that in the evening, the first emperor Liu Xuan still had to feast on the heroes of the war, and this afternoon, Xu Mo didn't go out anymore, sorted out his outfit, and waited for the evening to go to the banquet with Liu Yan and Liu Xiu!

On this day, when the sun set in the west, someone came to inform Xu Mo that he was going to set off now and go to the palace of Liu Xuan, the first emperor!

Liu Yan and Liu Xiu took the lead on the horse, and took Xu Mo, Deng Yu, Liu Ji, Zong Tong, Li Yi and others all the way to the palace.

The palace of the first emperor is in the middle of Wancheng, which is a palace that Liu Yan spent more than 20 days repairing after breaking through Wancheng, so that Liu Xuan took a group of family members and concubines to move in.

Xu Mo followed in, and in his eyes, there were red walls and yellow tiles, and bright lights, which were magnificent, not magnificent!

In the palace, there are already dozens of civil and military attachés with large and small official positions, and they are already seated!

Liu Yan and Liu Xiu sat down in their own positions, Xu Mo sat down behind Liu Xiu, Liu Ji sat down behind Liu Yan, and Deng Yu, Zong Tong, Li Yi and others sat down in turn in the back.

Liu Ji had already introduced to Xu Mo the names of the people in various positions in the hall.

"You see, that is the Great Sima Zhu Kun, that is the Great Sikong Chen Mu, that is the Imperial Captain General Wang Chang, and that is the embroidered Yushi Shen Tu Jian......"

Now above the palace, there are three empty positions, one is the dragon case in the center of the palace, and the other two are in the first place on both sides of the palace.

This central position is naturally that of the first emperor Liu Xuan, and the other two positions should be reserved for Wang Kuang, the prince of Dingguo, and Wang Feng, the prince of Chengguo.

Everyone has good wine and food on their seats, waiting for the feast to begin!

Not long after, someone spread the word: "The first emperor has arrived!"

All the people stood up!

The protagonist of this banquet has arrived!

Xu Mo saw that three people entered the palace, followed by a large group of entourage.

The person at the head, with a white face and long beard, thin eyebrows and small eyes, and wearing a gorgeous dress, this person is Liu Xuan.

Behind Liu Xuan, there are two long-haired generals, who are very similar in figure and dress, one Xu Mo is known, that is, Wang Feng, the prince of Chengguo, and the other should be Wang Kuang, the prince of Dingguo.

Liu Xuan sat down in front of the dragon case, and everyone shouted in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Liu Xuanlang said: "All Aiqing are seated!"

Everyone sat down in gratitude.

Liu Xuan said: "Today we are holding a banquet here, aiming to celebrate our army's victory in this Wancheng, and to break through 100,000 new troops in Kunyang City, which is really to raise the prestige of our army! Come, come, let's have a drink first!"

Everyone praised: "My emperor is blessed with heaven!"

Liu Xuan said: "In the recent two big victories, the first merit should be recorded is the great Situ Liu Yan and the Taichang general Liu Xiu, I have discussed with the Dingguo Shanggong and the Chengguo Shanggong to give your two brothers 500 acres of fertile land, 100 beauties, and 200 slaves to commend the meritorious ministers!"

Everyone said: "My emperor is wise!"

Liu Yan and Liu Xiu also thanked each other!

Liu Xuan said again: "I heard that the lord of Chengguo said that in the battle of Kunyang City, there was a hero who was like a divine soldier, I don't know if I came today?"

Liu Xiu replied: "What the emperor said is my good brother Xu Mo, who also came to meet the emperor today, and I hope that the emperor will reward him with a title!"

While speaking, Liu Xiu had already taken Xu Mo to bow down in the palace!

Liu Xuan looked at Xu Mo carefully and said: "This little hero is indeed dignified, since he has made great contributions to our army, he naturally wants to be rewarded for his meritorious deeds!"

Liu Xuan asked again: "What official position does General Taichang think is appropriate?"

Liu Xiu replied: "You can let Xu Mo be the captain of the military academy under the minister's account!"

Liu Xuan laughed: "Actually, I have just discussed with the Duke of Dingguo and the Duke of Chengguo, and it is in line with me to make Xu Mo a military captain, but you can stay by my side, I don't know if General Taichang can cut his love!"

Liu Xiu's heart sank, and he thought: "This Liu Xuan, Wang Kuang, Wang Chang and others really have scheming, not only to win people's hearts, but also to be the foot of my Nanyang soldiers!"

When Xu Mo heard this, he also understood what the situation was, but he also heard that Liu Xuan was originally incompetent, and Liu Xiu was a good big brother who sincerely worshipped him, how could he accept such a gift.

Xu Mo said loudly: "Weichen is afraid that it will be difficult to serve the emperor for a while, so it is better for me to continue to train with the army under the account of General Taichang!"

Liu Xuan listened to Xu Mo's words, and his face was already displeased!
