Officials from the Ministry of Revenue quickly found Li Jie to hand over, and Li Jie also summoned Gu Xuewen and others again. Then the two sides sat down to discuss a detailed investment plan. The officials from the Ministry of Revenue were also very cooperative, so they didn't spend much time at all, and Li Jie didn't need to participate in the rest.

Early that morning, Liu Yi brought his servant to Li Jie's house and helped Li Jie pack up his things and prepare to move. In fact, there was nothing to clean up. This courtyard was originally a temporary residence, and except for some clothes that he had with him, there was no need to take away anything else.

After packing his things into the car, Li Jie asked Liu Yi's servant to take the things to his new home. He and Liu Yi took the car out, then bought some gifts on the street, and finally took the car to a mansion west of the imperial city. A plaque was hung on the door of the mansion with four big words "Xiping Hou Mansion" written on it.

This is Mu Ying's mansion in the capital, but Mu Ying is not in the capital for many years. She returned to Yunnan once last time, so she only lives here.

Li Jie got off the car and delivered the famous post and was soon invited to the living room. After a while, they saw Mu Sheng coming to the living room excitedly. When they saw Li Jie, they said happily: "Brother Li, you are a rare guest. Why do you have time to come to me today?"

"I heard that Brother Mu, you are about to be promoted, of course I want to come and congratulate you!" Li Jie also replied with a smile, then reached out to Liu Yi next to him and introduced, "This is my cousin Liu Yi!"

Liu Yi also came forward with great awareness to salute Mu Sheng. Now Mu Sheng immediately guessed Li Jie's purpose, because he had the list of the Iron Book Army in his hand, and Liu Yi's name was also on the list.

"Brother Li is so polite. Just let someone know about the trivial matters. You need to go there in person!" Mu Sheng smiled immediately.

"My cousin's affairs are just one of them. In addition, I've been too busy recently. Now I've finally got some free time and I want to have a drink and have fun with Brother Mu." Li Jie smiled again. Only by coming to the door in person can he show his sincerity. After all, he still admires Mu Sheng very much.

Mu Sheng was even happier when he heard that Li Jie was going to drink with him, but at this time he thought of something, so he excitedly grabbed Li Jie's arm and said, "Brother Li, you are here just right. I'll take you and Brother Liu to see something!"

Mu Sheng said and pulled Li Jie away, and Liu Yi had to follow him. When the three of them came to a study room in the inner house. When they entered the study room, Li Jie and Liu Yi were shocked because the study room was so messy, the ground was full of waste paper, and the pens, ink, paper and ink on the table were piled up in a mess, as if they had been thieves.

But Mu Sheng seemed to be accustomed to it, pulled Li Jie to the table, and excitedly pointed to the picture on the table and said, "Brother Li, please see, what is the plan of this military camp?"

"Military camp?" Li Jie also looked at the picture curiously, and found that it was a planning map of a military camp, which made him immediately react, "Is this the base of the Tie Ce Army?"

"Yes, Your Majesty assigned a military camp outside the city to the Tieche Army, but I was not very satisfied with the layout of this military camp, so I wanted to re-plan it." Mu Sheng also said excitedly again.

When they heard that this was the Iron Class Army's garrison, Li Jie and Liu Yi both looked at the picture curiously, and found that there were many alterations on the picture, including the residences, schoolyards, canteens, etc. in the camp, and the plan was very orderly. It seemed that Mu Sheng should have spent a lot of effort.

"In addition to the military camp, I have also summarized a set of exercise methods. Brother Li, please help me see!" Mu Sheng picked up a pile of manuscripts on the desk and handed them to Li Jie. At this time, Li Jie found that Mu Sheng had some blood in his eyes, and he probably spent a lot of energy on the Tie Cejun.

There are a complete set of military training methods on the manuscript, and they are all written by Mu Sheng at a stroke. In addition, Li Jie also found that there were many messy military books on the desk. It seems that Mu Sheng has also read a lot of books in order to write this set of military training methods.

"Brother Mu, you really spent a lot of energy on the Tie Ce Army!" Li Jie roughly read the manuscript of training. Although he didn't know how to train, he believed in Mu Sheng's ability. After all, he had seen the soldiers Mu Sheng had trained before, and even Mu Ying, a veteran on the battlefield, praised Mu Sheng.

"I dare not slacke in the slightest thing Your Majesty has told me personally!" Mu Sheng said again. He was an ambitious person. For him, the Tie Ce Jun was an opportunity to show himself. If he could train the Tie Ce Jun, not only would his father pay more attention to him, but even the Majesty would look at him differently.

However, Li Jie shook his head slightly at this time, hesitated for a moment and finally spoke: "Brother Mu, the Tie Ce Army is composed of Dukes, Marquis and Princesses. These people are not very at ease. Your Majesty set up the Tie Ce Army and did not really want them to go to the battlefield. I am worried that you have spent a lot of effort, but in the end you will get half the result with twice the effort?"

Tie Cejun was originally a hostage mortgaged by the Duke and Marquis. With Li Jie's understanding of Lao Zhu, he would definitely not care about the quality of Tie Cejun. As long as these princes can stay in the capital, Mu Sheng spent a lot of effort on training troops, but he did not have Lao Zhu's support, and the princes under him were not easy to mess with, so Mu Sheng's painstaking efforts might be in vain.

"Thank you for your reminder!" Mu Sheng took a long breath, and then said with a firm look on his face, "Of course I know the difficulties of training, but since I plan to do it, I must do it well. Even if they are a ball of sand, I will hold them into a stone!"

Liu Yi next to him felt a chill when he heard Mu Sheng's words. He thought that Mu Sheng could take care of him more when he asked his cousin to help him plead, but seeing his appearance, he was determined to train these princes into elite soldiers. He might suffer a lot by then.

Although Li Jie could understand Mu Sheng, he was really not optimistic about the future of Tie Cejun. He just saw that the other party was so persistent, so he couldn't say anything else. He just patted the other party on the shoulder to show his support.

"By the way, Brother Mu, you are the deputy commander of Tie Cejun. Who is the real commander?" Li Jie suddenly thought of the mysterious commander of Tie Cejun. Even his uncle Liu Ying could not find out any news. Mu Sheng, as his deputy, should know the other party's identity.

"I don't know!" Mu Sheng shook his head unexpectedly, and said with confusion on his face, "I have asked Grandpa the Emperor before, but Grandpa said that he has not yet decided who to serve as the commander of the Tie Ce Army, but he just asked me to be responsible for the garrison and military training."

"It's strange. Even you don't know who your immediate boss is?" Li Jie was even more curious when he heard this. The candidate for the commander was really mysterious. Lao Zhu said that he hadn't thought about it. Could it be that he really didn't make a decision?

"I guess I should be a veteran with high moral character. After all, I am still too young, and I may not be able to convince the public by myself." Mu Sheng also speculated at this time that although he was Zhu Yuanzhang's godson, his father Mu Ying was just a marquis of Xiping, which was much worse than those dukes. In addition, he was not a legitimate son, so it would be difficult to subdue those princes.

"This is possible!" Li Jie nodded when he heard this, but then he thought that it was difficult to find a veteran who was highly respected, because such a person was either killed by Lao Zhu or driven back to his hometown, and those who were left behind also needed to guard the world. So after thinking about it, Li Jie couldn't think of a suitable candidate.

It was getting late, and Mu Sheng immediately hosted a banquet in the mansion to entertain Li Jie and Liu Yi. However, he knew that Li Jie didn't like drinking, so he didn't drink Li Jie. Instead, Liu Yi was drunk by him. In the end, Li Jie helped Liu Yi onto the carriage, and then said goodbye to Mu Sheng and leave.

Li Jie's new home is also west of the Imperial City, but it is still a little far from the Xiping Marquis Mansion. After all, Mrs. Li didn't have much money at that time and could not afford to buy a house near the Imperial City. In the end, she even borrowed money from Liu Ying, so she barely raised enough housing funds. This shows that the housing prices in Jinling City are so high.

Li Jie had been here once before and accompanied Mrs. Li to inspect the house. At that time, Mrs. Li and Aunt Zhao were still planning the layout of their new home with great enthusiasm. Unfortunately, something happened to Li Shanchang later, causing all the plans at home to be disrupted.

When the carriage came to Li Jie's new home, I saw that it was a big house with three entry, but it was much worse than Li Jie's previous home. When Mrs. Li bought it, it seemed a bit dilapidated because the house was uninhabited for a long time. Now after Liu Ying sent someone to repair it, it looks completely refreshed.

As soon as the carriage was at the door, an old butler immediately came forward to salute. Li Jie knew the other party. The butler was named Liu. He used to be the manager of Liu Ying's mansion. Now he has been sent to Li Jie's house to be the housekeeper. After all, Li Jie is alone and must have a capable butler to help take care of the family.

"Young Master, the marquis has come a long time ago and is waiting for you at home!" Butler Liu stepped forward and saluted.

"Well, my cousin is drunk. You have someone to put him in the guest room for rest. I'll go to see my uncle!" Li Jie immediately pointed to the carriage and ordered, saying that it's convenient to have servants at home, and many things are just about moving their mouths.

Butler Liu agreed, and then called two servants to support Liu Yi. Li Jie stepped into his new home, looking at everything at home while walking. Compared to the last time he came, the place had changed, and there was no sign of the dilapidation at the beginning.

When Li Jie saw Liu Ying drinking tea in the living room, he immediately stepped forward to salute, and Liu Ying also asked with a smile: "How is it, are you still satisfied with this new home?"

"Of course I'm satisfied. I'm worried about it if I'm sorry!" Li Jie nodded immediately with a smile, and then told him about the story of his visit to Mu Sheng with Liu Yi.

When Liu Ying learned that Mu Sheng was going to train the Tie Ce Army into an elite soldier, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Mu Ying had a son with ambition, but that's fine. Your cousin's experience in the army will also be beneficial to him in the future!"
