Li Bai walked into the study and saw his father reading. He didn't say anything to disturb him. Instead, he stood at the side and admired his father's work.
" Li Bai, what do you think of my handwriting?" Li Wen asked. " Father's handwriting is vigorous and powerful," Li Bai replied.
"Alright, don't say these nice things. Tell me, why are you looking for me?”,Li Wen turned around and asked. " I want to go to Luoyang after the new year. I hope Father can agree," Li Bai said.
" Oh, what are you going to Luoyang for?" Li Wen asked. "I want to go to Luoyang to meet His Majesty and ask for an official position: Li Bai answered truthfully.
" Then what do you want me to do?" Li Bai asked curiously,""Father, don't you want to ask me why I'm asking for an official position?”。
"That's your business. I believe that you must have a reason for doing this. Let me ask you, if I stop you, will you not go?”,Li Wen asked.
Li Bai was shocked at first, then lowered his head and pondered for a while. He looked up at Li Wen's eyes and said resolutely,""I don't want to lie to Father. I won't!”。
" Isn't that the end? Since I can't stop you, then why am I asking so much? Besides, you're my child. As long as you want to do something, just do it. I trust you. As for your mother, I'll talk to her. Don't worry, but be careful. The world hasn't been peaceful lately." Li Zhong said earnestly.
Although Li Wen wasn't really Li Bai's father, people were not plants. Just based on Li Wen's usual concern for Li Bai, and now his trust and love, Li Bai was touched.
Li Bai bowed to Li Wen and said solemnly,""Don't worry, father. I will not disgrace the reputation of father and the ancestors of the Li family.”
Li Wen nodded his head in gratification and said,"Since you have the heart to do so, then go ahead. For the sake of the elders, I can only wait for your good news at home. Go."
" Mhm, Father, I'll go and prepare. I hope Father will take care of yourself." Li Zhong bowed to Li Wen and walked out of the study.
Watching Li Bai's back disappear, Li Wen muttered,"" Brat, do your best. When you return, I'll give you a big present." Then, he shook his head and left the study.
Li Bai left the Li Residence and walked straight out of the city.
Tiger Mountain was 10 places away from Wangdu County. It was named after the frequent appearance of tigers in the mountains.
When Li Bai arrived at the foot of the mountain and was about to walk in, four burly men with large knives suddenly appeared. One of them said with an unfriendly expression," Unauthorized people are not allowed inside. There are tigers inside. Go back quickly." Li Zhong nodded his head in gratification and said,"" Not bad, not bad."
" Brat, I told you to leave quickly. What are you still talking about?" the burly man said impatiently.
" Go and call Guan Hai over to see me. Just tell him that I'm here," Li Bai said kindly, not angry.
The burly man looked at Li Bai in confusion, then called a man beside him to run back. He himself ordered the other two men to keep a close eye on Li Bai, afraid that something unexpected would happen.
When Li Bai saw this, not only was he not angry, but he was also very happy. He said to the leader,""Brother, why are you doing this?" Before Li Zhong could finish speaking, the burly man said,"I'm sorry." If I didn't tell you to speak, don't speak. Stand there obediently and don't play any tricks in front of me, or I'll split you alive." After saying that, he glared at Li Zhong.
Li Bai smiled bitterly and shook his head, not saying anything else.
After about a cup of tea's time, the man who had gone back to report the news came back. In front of him was Guan Hai. Guan Hai was also excited to see Li Bai. He shouted to the three men beside him,"" Hurry up and get out of the way. This is the young master I told you about. He's the one who gives you food, water, and shelter."
The man was stunned for a moment before kneeling on the ground. The two men beside him and the man who had returned to report also knelt down and apologized," I didn't know it was Young Master. Please forgive me, Young Master."" Please forgive me, Young Master." The three people at the side also said in unison.
" Quickly get up, quickly get up. You don't know, so you can't blame me. Quickly get up."
Li Bai walked over to help them up and said to the man leading the group,"" What's your name?"" In reply to Young Master, I'm Yan Liang, also known as Zishan," the man replied.
Yan Liang ah, hahahaha good, I didn't expect to have a general, Li Bai was proud in his heart.
When Yan Liang saw Li Bai's expression, he immediately changed and said,""Young Master, I didn't mean to do it earlier. I hope Young Master doesn't know." Before he could finish, Li Bai understood. Zishan, I don't mean to blame you. I'm just too happy. I'm happy to have you guys."
Hearing Li Bai's words, Yan Liang's heart instantly relaxed, and he said,"" Thank you, Young Master, for not committing any crimes. This lowly one and my brothers thank you, Young Master."
" Alright, don't call me that in the future. Just call me directly."
Li Bai said. Seeing that Yan Liang still wanted to say something, Guan Hai glared at him from the side. He nodded his head in embarrassment. Guan Hai said to Li Bai,"Young master, Yan Liang came when I was recruiting refugees near Chen County. Oh, right, there's another person with him. If these two kids 'martial arts are really good, to be able to exchange a hundred moves with Hai without falling into a disadvantage, I think their martial arts will become even stronger in the future. I hope young master can give them a chance."
When Li Bai heard that there was another person who came with Yan Liang, he suddenly thought of another fierce general and quickly asked,"" Zishan, is the person who came here with you called Wen Chou, Ziqin?"
Yan Liang glanced at Guan Hai and saw Guan Hai shaking his head with a puzzled expression. He hurriedly said," Young Master, that person is called Wen Chou. Because we are from the same village and we are kindred spirits, we became sworn brothers."
Hahahahaha, it really was Wen Chou. He was someone that even Zhang Liao and Xu Huang couldn't defeat. Li Bai was feeling proud of himself.
Hoho, Yuan Shao, your heart aches, hahahahaha!
At this moment, Yuan Shao, who was far away in Luoyang, felt a pain in his heart as if he had lost something. Yuan Shao could not figure it out, so he did not think too much about it.
