Lu Xiaoyuan raised his glass and said, "Whether Mr. Li has good intentions or bad intentions, let's be careful." ”

On Li Muqing's left are three nuns, because of the difference between monks and laymen, the nearest one and Li Muqing are also separated by three seats, the nun is nearly forty years old, her face is smooth, but there are crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, she is wearing a white monk's robe, her face is sinking like water, and she does not talk to everyone.

From her are two small nuns, one of which Lu Xiaoyuan has seen, it is Huiyou, the eldest disciple of Shuiyue Nunnery, and the other he doesn't know, that day Tianmuling eradicated the sandstorm dragon, this little nun is not among them.

The two nuns didn't speak, and looked at the warriors with cold eyes shouting and drinking, frowning slightly, disgusted and disdainful.

On Li Muqing's right side is a sturdy man, with a body and a body of animal skin, unkempt hair, and every muscle is full of vitality, as if it may explode at any time.

Lu Xiaoyuan asked about the origin of the middle-aged nun and the sturdy man, and Fei Bin said: "That nun is the head of Shuiyue Nunnery, the master of Shuijing, and the sturdy man is the beast emperor Ying Slaying Dragon, and the two of them are among the three masters of the Li family in Jinzhou." ”

Lu Xiaoyuan looked at the two of them carefully, and it happened that the two brilliant eyes of the Beast Emperor Ying Slaying Dragon swept over, and when he met Lu Xiaoyuan's eyes, he smiled slightly, full of pride. Although Master Shuijing's eyes were closed, when Lu Xiaoyuan's gaze swirled on her face, her eyes suddenly opened a slit, and a cold light shot out, startling Lu Xiaoyuan.

At this time, most of the guests were drunk and their eyes were hot. Li Muqing clapped his hands, and dozens of maids walked into the bamboo pavilion in a curling manner, each holding something in their hands, some were long boxes, some were packages, and some were small boxes.

The maids presented the things to the warriors, and Li Muqing said: "This is a small gift for you, talk about your heart." ”

The martial artists took the gift and opened it to see it, and many people exclaimed: "Ice Crystal Jade! Great, I lack this spirit stone!" "Fire Phoenix Fruit, haha, my Divine Fire Skill is not far from the day of practice!"

Fei Bin opened the gift box and saw that it was a fire ginseng in the box, he was stunned, so he got up and hugged his fists: "Mr. Li bothered, my mother was poisoned by the cold silkworm more than ten years ago, and she is still deeply disturbed by it. Mr. Li's move is really timely rain, please accept the next gift. ”

Mrs. Lu Yao said with a smile: "Fei Daxia is a filial and righteous gentleman, helping Fei Daxia is also accumulating virtue for the Li family, Fei Daxia doesn't need to say thank you." ”

Lu Xiaoyuan opened the box, and inside the box was a stack of square papers, opened the paper ball, wrote the word "Cheng" on it, and used a red pen to cross the word. Lu Xiaoyuan understood that this meant that the Li family could assist him in getting rid of Cheng Batian.

Zhang Dalu got a dagger, took off the sharkskin scabbard, only to see the cold light of the knife body shining, like a flood of autumn water, he loves the magic weapon the most, saw the great joy, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li is generous and generous, heroic and dry, if there is a dispatch in the future, I will go to the soup and fire, and I will do it." ”

Although the gifts received by everyone were of varying value, they were all precious to themselves, and they all expressed their attitudes, claiming that they would never shirk the Li family's dispatch in the future.

Lu Xiaoyuan and a few old and serious people thought that the businessman was unprofitable and could not afford to be early, and Li Muqing gave this heavy gift, and the person who was plotting must be not small, so he did not put away the gift and did not express his position.

Li Muqing saw everyone's situation, nodded slightly, very satisfied, and said: "Everyone is very strong, and it won't take long to be promoted if you work under Master Hou." I just hope that after you take power, you can take more care of the Li family's business. ”

Everyone agreed in unison. An old man said: "I heard that a large part of Jinzhou's military and political expenses depend on the Li family, and Mr. Li wants to arrange a few children of the Li family to be officials.

Li Muqing said: "The ancestors of the Li family are strictly forbidden for the children of the Li family to get involved in the official career. Although Li is not good, he does not dare to disobey the teachings of his ancestors. ”

Mrs. Lu Yao said: "There is one more thing, the Li family has a part of the business, which needs your contribution, and I hope you will not shirk when the time comes." ”

Zhang Dalu patted his chest and said: "I am a dart bureau, if you want to escort the goods, you only need to say a word, let him go all over the world, and he will never make a mistake." In fact, there is the power of the Hou Ye and the empire, and no dog cub dares to attack the Li family's goods. ”

Mrs. Lu Yao shook her head and said, "There are some things that you don't need to let Master Hou know, you have to be strict." ”

When a few people heard this, they were suspicious: It seems that the Li family is secretly doing business prohibited by the empire, perhaps it is ambergris fruit, holy spirit beads and other special items for the royal family, or it may be the buying and selling of weapons and artillery. As soon as I thought of this, I was silent.

A scribe said, "What do you mean, Madame, please explain." ”

Mrs. Lu Yao smiled: "Mr. Xu is a smart person, there are some things that don't need to be clarified, right?"

The scribe said: "The villain first and then the gentleman, if the Li family sends something in the future, we can't do it, isn't it because we don't believe in our words?"

Mrs. Lu Yao said: "Okay, for example, now the Li family has a batch of ambergris fruits that the empire strictly prohibits trading, and if you want to send it to the place, you need to prevent the inspection of the empire and the robbery of the underworld green forest. ”

Most of them gasped and were much more sober. Since they came to defect to the Marquis of Jinzhou, of course, they decided that the empire had a better chance of winning than the four-way anti-king, and if they accepted the conditions of the Li family, it would be an enemy of the empire.

Seeing that everyone looked at each other, Mrs. Lu Yao said with a smile: "Everyone, please think carefully, if you are willing to help the Li family, the Li family will never treat you badly." ”

After being silent for a long time, the scribe said: "When I joined the Zhaoxian Pavilion at the beginning, I was dedicated to serving the empire, and Mr. and Mrs. Li's proposal was forgiven for not obeying my fate. ”

His words expressed the hearts of many people, no matter how powerful the Li family in Jinzhou is, it can't go against the entire empire, and being an official in the empire is better than helping the Li family do underground business in terms of profit and security, so everyone took out the gifts and put them back on the table, got up and said goodbye.

Lu Xiaoyuan and the three of them glanced at each other, Fei Bin was filial by nature, and he was unwilling to hand over the fire ginseng in his hand and watched his mother suffer. Lu Xiaoyuan was already opposed to Wei Wensheng, and he was extremely disappointed in the darkness of the imperial officialdom, and he did not reject the Li family. Gao Ling looked at the two of them, and they didn't move.

Although Zhang Dalu and a dozen others wanted to leave, they were pressed by the Li family's heavy gifts and couldn't stand up no matter what.

As soon as everyone walked out of the bamboo pavilion, they suddenly heard a crisp girl's voice and said coldly: "I don't know what to lift, Mr. Li can afford to look down on you, but you are pushing back, and you really treat yourself as a dish." ”
