"What does the eldest grandson want to say?"
Li Xiao looked at Changsun Wuji coldly.
"Nothing, just asking casually. Since entering the villa, I have seen King Yue's blacksmith shop and tailor shop all the way, and now recruit so many guards. What does King Yue want to do?"
"This business is getting bigger and bigger, and it is inevitable that people will be jealous. Naturally, it needs guards to guard it." Li Xiao said lightly.
However, at this moment, his mind is a little dignified.
One of the reasons for making such a move was to legalize the blacksmith shop in his villa.
After all, it is not open to the outside world. If it is not for business, it is inevitable that there will be suspicion of self-made soldiers and armor.
But he didn't expect that he still couldn't escape the eyes of the old fox Changsun Wuji.
"The king of Yue thinks His Majesty's imperial army is not strong enough?"
Changsun Wuji said with a puzzled look, "Then I don't understand."
He pointed to Li Xiao's newly recruited guards in the distance: "These people are as thin as sticks, can they fight on the battlefield?"
"I can't help it. I'm poor, so I can only recruit weak ones, but after training for a while, I can become stronger." Li Xiao said slowly.
"Ha ha."
Changsun Wuji looked at Li Xiao with amusement in his eyes, and suddenly said to Li Er: "Your Majesty, I know the scenery behind this villa is beautiful, why don't you go and have a look?"
Hearing this, Li Xiao stared at Changsun Wuji, narrowing his eyes slightly.
At this moment, Xue Rengui and the others should still be training in the back mountain.
If it is bumped into, I am afraid it will be difficult to explain.
Li Xiao was puzzled, did Changsun Wuji do it on purpose or unintentionally?
If it was intentional, how did Changsun Wuji know that there are recruits training in the mountains behind him?
Li Er nodded: "Okay, anyway, if you have nothing to do, let's go and have a look."
"Father, the weather is hot and the scorching heat is unbearable, why not move to the side hall, my son, let someone prepare the best food..."
Changsun Wuji interrupted Li Xiao: "Your Majesty has eaten countless delicacies from mountains and seas, so why do you care about that?"
After speaking, he looked at Li Xiao with a playful look on his face.
"Since you're all here, let's go to the back mountain to have a look, Xiao'er, why don't you lead the way?"
Li Er looked thoughtful.
"Yes, Father."
Seeing that Li Xiao couldn't stop it, he could only accept his orders.
Afterwards, Li Xiao ordered people to move the horses, and several people rode the horses to the back mountain.
In terms of scenery, Lantian Villa is really extraordinary.
The huge back mountain is taken care of by special personnel, so it looks like a beautiful country.
Several people stopped and went, and finally came to a canyon.
It was the canyon where Xue Rengui and the others trained.
"Father, do you still want to go in and have a look?" Li Xiao asked.
"what?"
Changsun Wuji suddenly showed surprise, and asked in confusion, "Why do I hear noises coming from this canyon? Is there someone inside?"
"Well, there are indeed people. This is the training ground I built to train the newly recruited guards." Li Xiao said expressionlessly.
"So that's the case, the few people recruited by the King of Yue are nothing to see, Your Majesty, shall we go back?" Changsun Wuji said.
"Go, go in and have a look."
Li Er looked at Li Xiao meaningfully.
Then Li Er took the lead and walked in.
Seeing this scene, the smile on Changsun Wuji's face grew even stronger.
After a while, a group of people came to the training ground.
At this moment, Xue Rengui and hundreds of people are still training hard under the scorching sun.
Although sweating profusely and exhausted, everyone did not slack off.
"So many people?" Changsun Wuji narrowed his eyes, "King Yue, I didn't expect you to hide so many people in the back mountain. It shouldn't be as simple as just guards, right?"
"What do you mean?" Li Xiao looked at Changsun Wuji coldly, "What's wrong with recruiting a hundred people? Don't you have hundreds of guards in your house?"
"Since you entered the door, you have targeted me everywhere. I would like to ask, what do you want to do?"
"Besides, I have already reported this matter to my father, how can you wantonly slander me?"
Hearing this, Changsun Wuji was startled, and then looked at Li Er.
Li Er nodded and said, "Well, I do know about this."
"Did you hear that?" Li Xiao turned his head to look at Changsun Wuji, "Do you still want to say that I am recruiting soldiers privately, building armour, and preparing to rebel?"
Li Er also looked at Changsun Wuji coldly.
"King Yue's words are serious, I don't mean that."
Changsun Wuji quickly apologized.
At this moment, Xue Rengui and others stopped and waited for orders in the distance because they had never seen Li Er and the others.
At this time, Fang Xuanling looked at the training facilities and asked curiously, "King Yue, are these strange things also used for training?"
"good."
Li Xiao has something to say, but he has no intention of continuing to explain.
"Is this also called practice?"
Changsun Wuji chuckled lightly, shook his head, and said nothing, but his eyes were full of sarcasm.
"I'm just going through the process casually. I'm sure I don't know as much as Master Changsun in this aspect." Li Xiao said expressionlessly.
Li Er looked at it, thought about it seriously, and pondered: "Xiao'er, if necessary, I can send an additional [-] imperial troops over."
He figured it out, Li Xiao, the newly recruited recruit, why does everyone have it?
Not to mention that most of them are skinny, there are still some old, weak, sick and disabled, and even immature teenagers.
"Father, there's no need, these people will be useful after a period of training."
Li Xiao quickly refused.
He didn't dare to ask Li Er important person again.
He has a lot of secrets here, and he must not let them out.
Now the imperial guards around him had all fought together.
Moreover, Li Junxian and Zhao Yuntian are still in charge, so naturally there is no need to worry about loyalty.
"These people can also come in handy? Hehe..."
Changsun Wuji sneered, and said, "I'm afraid that if they go up together, they won't be able to beat Commander Luo alone."
"Really?" Li Er asked again.
Li Xiao nodded and said: "Father, don't look at them like this, but there are still a few powerful people, so father can rest assured, the child knows."
"Since this is the case, let Commander Luo experience the strength of these people." Changsun Wuji suggested.
"No need!"
"Debi, you can only grow by fighting against the strong. Your Highness doesn't want them to learn something from Commander Luo?"
"This……"
Li Xiao looked troubled.
He really couldn't figure out what this eldest grandson Wuji wanted to do.
What's the point if you just want to use Luo Tong to humiliate his recruits?
is this necessary?
"Then let's compete." Li Er said thoughtfully.
Li Xiao had no choice but to call Xue Rengui.
Among these recruits, he is the one who can fight the most.
Seeing only one person coming, Changsun Wuji was stunned, and asked doubtfully, "Only one person?"
"One person is enough." Li Xiao said confidently.
Li Er ordered: "Luo Tong, you go and meet him, stop as soon as you order, and don't hurt anyone."
"Xue Rengui, the person who is competing with you is the commander of the Forbidden Army in the palace. Please do not hurt anyone." Li Xiao also imitated Li Er and said.
Hearing this, Changsun Wuji couldn't help laughing immediately.
Still can't hurt people?
Is it possible that you, a recruit, can beat the commander of the imperial army?
Changsun Wuji dismissed it.
Immediately afterwards, the battle began.
Xue Rengui was holding a long spear, while Luo Tong was carrying it with one hand, and was going to fight Xue Rengui with one hand.
It's just blatant humiliation.
Xue Rengui's eyes narrowed, and he rushed up immediately!
Chapter 130: My grandson, are you a saint?
In the open space, the two were fighting.
Xue Rengui played against Luo Tong.
Luo Tongxin was arrogant, looked at the spear in Xue Rengui's hand with disdain on his face, not only empty-handed, but also prepared to defeat Xue Rengui with one hand.
"King Yue, is this one of the few powerful ones you mentioned?"
Changsun Wuji shook his head and chuckled with a teasing expression on his face.
Fang Xuanling also shook his head slightly: "Looking at this kid's skills, he has indeed practiced for some time, but he is too young. Even if Commander Luo is bare-handed, he must be able to easily win."
Both of them expressed their views.
"is it?"
Li Xiao smiled slightly, but didn't say much.
Luo Tong is indeed extraordinary in skill, he should be at Zhao Yuntian's level, second only to Li Junxian.
But Xue Rengui is not an ordinary person.
If Luo Tong can go all out, the current Xue Rengui may only be able to support dozens of moves, and then lose to defeat.
But this Luo Tong is actually unarmed, even with one hand.
This is a bit arrogant.
Li Xiao felt that Luo Tong would pay for his arrogance.
Just when a few people were chatting.
On the battlefield, Xue Rengui rushed towards Luo Tong with a gun.
A straight stab, as fast as lightning.
However, Luo Tong turned sideways, dodged the thrust, and grabbed the spear with one hand.
Against this kind of person, there is no suspense for him to win.
But with His Majesty present, he will win well.
