After Liu Yinyue went outside the tower, she turned back after a short time. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 At this moment, there was a middle-aged monk in blue robe who looked a little anxious.

The blue-robed monk was thirty or forty years old, and he had a white jade pendant hanging from his waist with the word 'Nie' written on it. In addition, the cuffs and neckline are also embroidered with a red maple leaf, which makes people know from a distance that this person is a member of the Nie family in Red Maple Valley.

The messenger waited under the tower for three days, seemingly a little anxious, and at this moment hurriedly followed Liu Yinyue into the Gathering Star Pavilion, and after seeing Li Sen, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He stepped forward and bowed to Li Sen: "Junior Nie Long, I have seen Governor Li. ”

"You are the envoy sent by the Nie family? I heard that you have been waiting for Li Mou in the port for three days, I don't know what is important?" Li Sen glanced at him with a smile and said.

Nie Long replied respectfully: "Because the head of the family, Nie Qihai, is approaching his birthday, he is scheduled to have a banquet on the first day of next month. His old man specially instructed the juniors to invite Governor Li to the banquet. Therefore, the juniors did not dare to leave without waiting for Governor Li's reply. ”

Hearing this, Li Sen couldn't help but glance at this person more.

"You said, Nie Qihai specially instructed you to invite Li to the banquet?"

"Exactly. Nie Long lowered his eyebrows and said respectfully.

But after Li Sen heard his confirmation, he couldn't help but glance at Juan and Liu Yinyue.

Liu Yinyue shook her head slightly, hinting at Li Sen's refusal. Juan, on the other hand, looked thoughtful and didn't show any opinions.

After Li Sen thought about it for a while, he asked Nie Long again: "Nie Long, let me ask you, besides Li, who else did Nie Qihai Daoyou invite to the banquet?"

He also invited Master Yuanming of Kuzhu Island, Bai Xiuzhubai, the helmsman of Wu Guoru of the Yuanling Business Alliance, Mei Xuesheng, the master of the Plum Garden, and all the sects and families in Wu Kingdom to distribute invitations. Nelon replied.

As soon as these words came out, Liu Yinyue and Juan were taken aback. Even Li Sen's face showed surprise.

"In addition to Bai Xiuzhu, Master Yuanming and Mei Xuesheng were also invited? But I remember, didn't Mei Xuesheng go to the Eastern Continent last year?"

Nie Long's face showed a hint of embarrassment: "This junior doesn't know. Senior Mei may not be in Wu State now, but he did not inform his family when he left, and Mei Yuan is still there, and it is also etiquette to send a post to him. As for Master Yuanming of Kuzhu Island, he used to be the life-saving benefactor of the head of the family, and now he is invited to a banquet on his birthday, which should be a matter of course. ”

"I see. ”

Hearing this, Li Sen touched his chin, and his face showed a look of thought.

After a while, Li Sen nodded and said, "Li knows, you go and reply to your family master, just say that Li will definitely arrive on time and participate in Nie Daoyou's birthday banquet." ”

"Great! Governor Li's reply, the younger generation must return to the head of the family word by word. Leave. ”

Nie Long was overjoyed when he heard this, and after hurriedly surrendering his hand, he hurriedly left.

It seems that after a three-day delay here, there is not much time left for him to return to the task.

After Nie Long left, Li Sen returned to his seat, picked up a cup of tea and began to drink it.

Liu Yinyue and Juan glanced at each other, and then sat down on either side.

Li Sen didn't speak, and it was inconvenient for the two of them to speak first. After waiting for Li Sen to drink half a cup of tea slowly, Li Sen finally put down the teacup.

"Hu Daoyou, Liu Daoyou. Li Sen looked at the two people in front of him and said calmly, "If you have anything to say, just ask." ”

When Liu Yinyue heard this, the soldiers were not polite, and said directly: "The Nie family doesn't know what the hell they are doing this time, and they will invite any cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods there." In my opinion, Li Lang should not have agreed to this person's invitation just now. ”

Juan was relieved: "Since I have already agreed, there is no use in saying these words." It's better to think about how to deal with it after arriving at the Nie family. By the way, should you bring Ikeda with you? There are still a few guards in the foundation period on this side of the port, and if you bring them, you can prevent accidents. ”

"You can take me. Liu Yinyue took the initiative to ask.

Seeing this, Li Sen shook his head: "It's not appropriate." The Ikeda realm is only in the middle stage of foundation building, and the other deputy commanders who are subordinate to him are only in the early stage of foundation building. If there is a real danger at that time, such a little strength will not help at all. Besides, since it's a birthday feast, there shouldn't be any ambush. Even if things are not harmonious, with my relationship with Kuzhu Island, I will never be isolated. ”

"That's true, I forgot that you've always had a close relationship with Kuzhu Island. Although those monks are stinky and hard, their strength is extremely strong. With them, your safety should be guaranteed. Liu Yinyue nodded.

"Governor Li is far-sighted, and I can't wait. Juan also agreed, and slapped a little sycophant by the way.

Li Sen smiled and said: "Okay, let's discuss here, let's discuss, and we can't figure out what medicine is sold in the Nie family's gourd, and we can only see the tricks after we go." In contrast, there are several other things that Li cares more about. ”

Speaking of this, Li Sen glanced at Liu Yinyue, and then said, "Listen to what you said before, Nan Xin has also come to me these days?"

Liu Yinyue nodded calmly and said, "Yes, when you were about the sixth day of your retreat, she came to the port from the teleportation array in Star City to find you. But when I heard the news of your retreat, I left in a huff. It looks like there's something I need you to help with. ”

"Looking for help from Li?"

When Li Sen heard this, he was slightly stunned. Immediately, Li Sen pondered for a moment, then shook his head slightly: "Nanxin, this girl, since Li advanced to the Jindan stage, she has returned to southern Xinjiang with several elders of the Jindan period of the Miao tribe. It seems that he has returned to the southern Xinjiang to organize preparations to defend against the demon monks. There has been no movement in the past two years, maybe it was really a tricky difficulty, so I came to look for Li from thousands of miles, right?"

"What, listening to your tone, it seems that you care about her?" Liu Yinyue looked at Li Sen.

"Nan Daoyou, I used to know Li through Ling Huyan, and I have always been just an ordinary friend with Li. But after Li advanced to the Jindan period, when the meridians were cut off and he was sick in bed, Nanxin's daughter once came to visit Li. For this reason, she encountered difficulties to find Li, and Li should also help in terms of morality. Leeson replied.

Hearing this, Juan nodded: "If a friend is in trouble, it is also appropriate to help when he can." ”

"If it's just out of morality between ordinary friends, then that's it. But to be able to run all the way here to ask for your help, I'm afraid it's not a simple matter, you just have to take care of it yourself. If you can, you can help, and if you can't, you will refuse. Liu Yinyue admonished.

Li is naturally clear about this. Li Sen smiled slightly.

After a pause, Li Senfu said again: "Let's put these two things down first." What Li is also concerned about is that in the half month that I left, has anything happened on the port side?"

Hearing this, Liu Yinyue and Juan glanced at each other, and both shook their heads.

"It was calm, nothing happened. Juan replied, "The only small thing is that the Mohist monks, including Yuno, asked us to help them improve their diet and living environment. Of the twelve Mojia monks, four of them, including Yuno, were female monks, and it was somewhat inconvenient to work in the underground shipyard for a long time. Since these are small things, I just approved it. Today, two small mansions, one for men and one for women, have been temporarily built in the underground shipyard, which are dedicated to the Mohist monks. ”

"It's a small thing, but it's not to be neglected. The Mo monks are all treasures, and we have to treat them well. Even after the construction of the 'Spirit Boat' is completed this time, Li will definitely be able to use these Mohist monks in other aspects in the future. Li Sen commanded.

"Governor Li, rest assured, our port will never treat these Mo monks badly. All standards are according to the VIP level, and the service is done with care. Juan laughed.

"Well, although the port is calm in the short term, it should not be negligent. Now that the spies of the demon world are becoming more and more rampant in the human world, no one knows if there will be spies from the demon world lurking here on this side of the port. If the news of our warship here gets out, we may face a surprise attack one day. There are still fewer patrol guards on the port side, and the realm cultivation is too low. Go back and draw up a note, see how much strength is needed to strengthen the defense of the port, and I will talk to Elder Wei when I have time. Li Sen commanded.

"Okay, I got it. I'll leave this to me, and I'll discuss it with Ikeda. Juan nodded, acknowledging the matter.

After Li Sen thought about it, he opened his mouth to Juan again, but he mentioned the matter of the neighboring Chu State and Yue State.

Juan also seems to have a good understanding of the intelligence of the two countries, and even when it comes to answering questions.

At this time, Liu Yinyue just sat quietly on the side, watching Li Sen and Juan talk to each other.

It is no wonder that although Liu Yinyue has a certain management ability, she is still inferior to Juan's old and shrewd man. Therefore, Juan dealt with more of the main affairs of the port. Liu Yinyue was mainly in charge of the commercial activities of the Juxing Pavilion and the foreign affairs of the port.

When Li Sen and Juan discussed with each other the many affairs of the port, as well as the situation in the surrounding cultivation realm, she could only sit there quietly.

But even so, Liu Yinyue couldn't see any dissatisfaction on her face, she sat there with a smile on her face, as if as long as she could watch Li Sen sit next to her and talk slowly, she was already very satisfied, and she didn't have any other ideas.
