Thinking of this, Liu Jin poured himself a cup of wine, stood up and saluted Li Mengxi, "I've heard about the name of the little military advisor a long time ago, but when I saw him today, it's clear that he's well-deserved!

Liu Jin dares to invite wine to toast the military advisor!"

Everyone's eyes suddenly fell on Li Mengxi.

Li Mengxi stood up with the wine in his hand. He looked at the wine in the glass and hesitated. For the ancients, toasting to others was etiquette, but children shouldn't drink alcohol, especially high-strength alcohol. They would be foolish to drink.

what to do.

So, Li Mengxi said to Liu Jin seriously, "I am young and not good at drinking. How about drinking water instead of wine?" After saying that, he shouted outside the tent, "Come here! Get some water."

The guard who was happily gnawing on pig's trotters outside the tent heard the shouting and hurriedly pursed his lips and went to find water.

After a while, the guard brought the water. The guard, who was heartless, took the boss's bowl and filled it with too much water.

Li Mengxi held the bowl in his hands, bowed to the imperial physician Liu Jin, raised his head, and drank tons and tons of water, finishing a large bowl of water in one go.

After drinking, Li Mengxi raised his sleeve and wiped his mouth, turned the bowl as big as a head over in his hand, indicating that not a drop was left.

Liu Jin was a little dumbfounded. He secretly admired Li Mengxi's heroic spirit. He thought that someone who could be valued by Liu Xuande was indeed a character.

I haven't eaten yet, but I drank a lot of water. Damn it, I even ate a hammer.

However, someone was stupid. Two other strangers at the table saw Liu Jin toasting. They reacted belatedly. Following the imperial doctor Liu Jin, they also picked up their wine and stood up to toast Li Mengxi.

Li Mengxi, who had already drank a lot of water, opened his mouth and said, "Well, I can't bear to drink, so I'd rather drink water instead of wine. Someone..."

Liu Bei felt sorry for Li Mengxi, so he got up at the right time to block Li Mengxi. Liu Bei picked up the wine cup and smiled at the two of them, "My Xi'er is not good at drinking. How about I do it for you?"

Liu Bei took the place of wine, and the two of them accepted the invitation. They were flattered and drank the wine in the glass with Liu Bei's invitation.

This scene completely fell in the eyes of the imperial physician Liu Jin. Liu Jin, who was experienced in human nature, immediately judged that the relationship between Liu Bei and the junior military advisor was not generally good.

Later, after finishing the wine, Liu Bei took advantage of the opportunity to introduce the identities of the remaining two people to Li Mengxi. The remaining two people were both Yulin Army soldiers.

The three people Liu Bei brought back were an imperial doctor and two Yulin warriors. This was so strange that Li Mengxi was puzzled.

At the ensuing banquet, Liu Bei repeatedly served wine and food, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

During this period, Xiao Brick came back.

As soon as this little guy came in, Zhang Fei, Liu Bei, and Guan Yu all warmly greeted Xiao Bian to come over to the three of them. Xiao Bian ignored anyone. He walked over to Li Mengxi and carefully showed Li Mengxi a cricket in his hand.

When Liu Bei saw it, he smiled and joked, "Brick, can you give me the cricket?"

Xiao Bian glanced at Liu Bei and realized that he hadn't seen the big-eared uncle for a long time. He thought for a while and gave the cricket to Liu Bei in a grand manner.

Liu Bei, the boss, was alone, so why did he want crickets? This interesting scene caused the whole room to burst into laughter, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

The banquet lasted until the afternoon. Everyone had eaten and drank enough and started chatting. It was not until this time that Li Mengxi knew what had happened during Liu Bei's trip to Luoyang.

Liu Bei mentioned that the emperor hit a pillar in anger and fainted. If it had not been for the protection of the imperial doctor, he would have died at the hands of Zhang Rang.

Li Mengxi looked at Liu Bei in astonishment.

Off the court, Zhang Fei was even more surprised, "Is this happening?! Why didn't Xianhe tell me?"

After finishing speaking, Zhang Fei realized that he had missed the point and quickly shut up.

After Zhang Fei mentioned this, Liu Bei suddenly remembered that Jian Yong was here. He asked doubtfully, "Where has Xianhe gone? Why are you going to the banquet in the future?"

Li Mengxi glanced at the imperial doctor Liu Jin and two Yulin scholars present at the table. These three people from Luoyang may not be trustworthy. They talk a lot, so it is better to keep confidential matters private.

So, Li Mengxi interrupted and said, "Xianhe also went to Luoyang and will be back soon."

Liu Bei was even more confused. He looked at Li Mengxi in surprise. How could he not know when Jian Xian and Luoyang went to Luoyang, what they were doing in Luoyang, and why he didn't see him in Luoyang.

Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei again, but Zhang Fei's eyes dodged.

Liu Bei intuitively felt that there must be something he didn't know about here, and Liu Bei frowned slightly.

Liu Bei's intuition was right, something earth-shattering was happening here that was almost going to change the dynasty.
