Chapter 57 Amazing
After encountering a few monks from Huangjue Temple, Li Yuanhui thought about it carefully and decided not to take it too seriously.

It’s just a temple in Huainan.

In this chaotic world, we already have Second Brother and Zhao Da, so there’s no reason for Old Zhu to come along, right?
If that's true, it would be quite lively.

Without thinking about all this mess, Li Yuanhui took a few followers and some things and went to the residence of King Wu in Daningfang.

When he arrived, the King of Wu's house was already full of guests.

The Murong family, the Duan family, the Yuwen family, the Dugu family, the Yuchi family, the Bohai Gao family, the Wenxi Pei family, the Jingzhao Wei Du family, the Hedong Xue family, the Longxi Li family, etc.

They were all royal nobles, as well as men and women from prominent Han families.

Li Yuanhui didn't arrive early, but after he went to the main hall and greeted King Wu Murong Yang, he was invited to sit on his left or right.

Those who gathered around King Wu at this moment can be said to be the nobles among the nobles.

The men included Duan Wuchen, the son of General Fuguo, and his brother Duan Wuda, Dugu Qiuyu, the grandson of Duke Xin, Wei Xiaoju, the cousin of King Wu, and his brother Wei Xiaogong. Some of them were colleagues of Li Yuanhui's Xiaoguo Army.

He has always been on good terms with the King of Wu.

Murong Cong, grandson of King Wei and cousin of Li Yuanhui.

The women include Duan Wuchen's sister Duan Jin, Dugu Qiuyu's cousin Dugu Mingyuenu, and Chen Guogong's granddaughter Yuwen Sa. The only one who came from a prominent Han family was Wei Xiaoju's sister Wei Shier Niang, but her name is unclear.

Xianbei women are more bold in this regard and don't mind giving their names when they go out.

And judging from her figure and appearance, she is more in line with Li Si's aesthetics, with a bit of exotic charm, especially Duan Jin, who is very...
I won't go into details on this.

"You all know Ye Hou Li Silang, so there is no need to introduce him. He is a hero in suppressing the rebellion. Even the twelfth elder praised my brother-in-law in front of my father."

Murong Yang pulled Li Si to sit next to him, and Duan Wuchen was sitting opposite him.

When his brother Duan Wuda heard Murong Yang praising Li Si, he immediately felt unhappy and said sourly: "It's just luck."

His brother Duan Wuchen said coldly: "Shut up."

Duan Wuda immediately stopped talking, but there was always some hostility in his eyes as he looked at Li Si.

Li Si didn't care about it at all, just pretending he didn't exist. However, his colleague Duan Wuchen greeted him and said, "Silang, don't argue with a useless brother like me."

Li Si smiled and said, "Brother Duan, you are too polite. I will not argue with Duan Sanqi about this. You and I are colleagues. We still need to fight together and resist the enemy side by side."

As colleagues, he and Duan Wuchen had no grudges or conflicts of interest. As they were in the Xiaoguo Army, they naturally had to maintain good relations and fight together.

"What Silang said is absolutely right. Our Xiaoguo Army is the personal army of His Majesty. It is a gathering of the best soldiers in the world. These generals are all appointed by His Majesty. Not everyone can comment on them."

As for the little dirty stuff between him and Duan Wuda, Duan Wuchen didn't think it was a problem at all. His last few words were not only a warning to his brothers, but also a statement for Li Si.

Although Duan Wuda's position as Palace Attendant was high and important, and he was a close minister to the emperor, he was extremely honored and much higher in rank than his elder brother.

But in the Duan family, Duan Wuchen, the eldest son, was trained as the crown prince since he was young, so he entered the army for training.

In his eyes, his younger brother Duan Wuda was nothing but a playboy. Although he was brave, he had never led a soldier. Without military training, he would be useless and nothing more than a reckless man.

Although Li Yuanhui was younger than Duan Wuda, he had fought in battles and made contributions. Last time he led an army as a flank, his performance was not outstanding, but at this age he was able to suppress the arrogant and fierce soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army and maintain harmony in the ranks, which could not be achieved by relying on family background alone.

He must be proficient in military command.

Therefore, in his eyes, Duan Wuda's provocation of Li Silang was tantamount to humiliating himself.

As the only royal family of a different surname in Dayan, the Duan family, with deep roots and close ties to the Murong clan, was not afraid of offending the emperor's son-in-law, nor was it afraid of offending the Longxi Li family. But if it was for the sake of jealousy, it was completely unnecessary and not worth it.

Duan Wuchen's performance also surprised those who secretly looked down on Li Yuanhui and thought he was just lucky.

It seems that this person has some real talent, otherwise how could Prince Lingzhi, who is even more arrogant than his younger brother, and the other generals have such an attitude?

This also invisibly made Li Si's image much more lofty.

Duan Wuda, who was in a state of disgrace, felt a little uncomfortable sitting there, so he excused himself and went to the front hall to play with someone.

And it was not long after Duan Wuda left.

A young boy with shaved hair ran up to the crowd, looked around, and finally stopped in front of Li Yuanhui, staring at him with his round eyes.

When everyone saw the child, except Murong Yang who had a troubled expression, the others stood up one after another.

Li Yuanhui also stood up upon seeing this. The identity of this young child must be his brother-in-law without a doubt.

And that child was none other than Murong Yang's half-brother, Murong Kexie. He looked at everyone, then took Li Yuanhui's hand and walked to the corridor at the corner of the hall, next to the courtyard, and asked him quietly.

"Are you my brother-in-law?"

Li Yuanhui smiled when he heard this and decided to tease him, "Why do you think I'm your brother-in-law?"

Murong Kexie said seriously: "You are good-looking. Sister likes good-looking people."

Li Yuanhui was in a good mood when he heard this: "Has anyone praised you for being smart?"

Murong Kexie said proudly: "Of course, everyone in the palace praises me for being smart and wise."

Li Yuanhui nodded, then squatted down and gave him a thumbs up: "I think you are not only smart and wise, but also have a pair of discerning eyes."

Murong Kexie nodded repeatedly, then looked around and whispered, "Brother-in-law, I'm telling you, be careful of my sister."

"why?"

“She would hit people.”

Li Yuanhui showed a surprised expression. What do you mean she can hit people, but others can't?

Who knew that when Murong Kexie saw his brother-in-law's surprise, he thought that he knew the seriousness of the matter, so he complained to Li Yuanhui in a low voice about his sister Murong Jiayin's "atrocities" against him.

"Vajra."

A cold voice came, and then Murong Kexie, who was talking excitedly, shuddered and looked over there. It was the "Demon King Jialuo" he mentioned.

Vajra is the nickname of Murong Kexie, which means Vajra in Sanskrit.

Li Yuanhui looked in the direction of the voice and saw Murong Jiayin wearing a pomegranate skirt and a white fox fur coat. She was standing there with a tall and graceful figure.

At this time, it was snowing outside. A female official was holding an umbrella for her from behind. Goose-feather-like snowflakes were fluttering around her, making her look fairy-like.

There is still a plum blossom between her eyebrows, and the rouge on her red lips, coupled with her beautiful appearance, makes Li Yuanhui only think of a poem.

"There is a beautiful woman in the north, peerless and independent. She looks at the Qingren city and then the Qingren country."

This scene lingered in his mind for a long time, amazed him for more than forty years of his life.
