Li Jie rode all the way along the way. Originally, the city of Jinling was already in a curfew and the city gate was closed, but Li Jie had a waist card that was passed at night. Of course, it was very troublesome to use this waist card once, and he also needed to report it to the court afterwards. Therefore, Li Jie had never used it before, but today it was different. He was anxious to see Luo Guanzhong, for fear that the other party would leave again.

Speaking of Luo Guanzhong, when Li Jie first went to Ningbo, he thought of the other party. Later, he met Zou Pusheng, Li Hong and others, especially Li Hong. Like Luo Guanzhong, he was once a subordinate of Zhang Shicheng, so Li Jie also asked Li Hong about Luo Guanzhong's situation in private.

However, Li Hong and Luo Guanzhong may not have been in contact for many years and do not know much about Luo Guanzhong's situation, but they still promised to look for Li Jie. If they could find him, they would ask him to come to Li Jie. After all, Li Jie promised to help Luo Guanzhong print the books he wrote.

At first, Li Jie was very excited about this matter, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't wait for Luo Guanzhong's news. In addition, Li Hong and others were busy going out to sea again. Now it has been almost two years. Li Jie himself has almost forgotten about this matter, but he didn't expect that Luo Guanzhong suddenly came to visit, which made Li Jie immediately anxious to go out for searching.

Fortunately, Luo Guanzhong left his address outside the city when he left, so after Li Jie left the city, he ran all the way to the Dragon King Temple outside Dinghuai Gate, and then slapped his saddle and knocked on the door.

Luo Guanzhong in the temple was already a little surprised to hear the sound of horse hooves outside, and now he was even more surprised to hear the knocking of the door. Lao Miao Zhu couldn't hear the knocking outside at all, and he was still snoring in the room next door, so Luo Guanzhong quickly walked out of the door.

When Luo Guanzhong opened the door, he saw a young man in gorgeous clothes standing outside the door, with several guards leading carriages behind him. He could tell at a glance that he was from a wealthy family.

"I dare to ask if it's Mr. Robenro?" Li Jie stepped forward and bowed and bowed.

Luo Guanzhong didn't expect that the other party would call out his name in one go. He was stunned again and then replied: "I am Robben, I don't know what the young master calls me?"

"I'm in Li Jie. Today I heard that the gentleman came to see him and came to meet the old man!" Li Jie learned that the old man in front of him was Luo Guanzhong, and immediately saluted again. He was also looking at the other person when he spoke.

Luo Guanzhong's hair was gray and dark, and his skin looked more like an ordinary old farmer than a great writer. He was wearing a shabby robe, which was washed a little white. He had several patches on his hem. With his thin figure, he looked quite shabby.

"You... are you Jing Hai Bo?" Luo Guanzhong was also shocked when he heard Li Jie's identity. He never dreamed that Li Jie would visit him in person, which made him feel at a loss for a moment.

"Mr. Luo, I have been looking for you for a long time. I have been lucky enough to see you today. I wonder if I can ask you to go to the mansion to tell you?" Li Jie took the initiative to invite him. He wanted to have a long talk with him all night after seeing Luo Guanzhong, but he didn't expect that the other party would actually live in such a dilapidated temple, so it would be not too late to go home and chat again.

"This..." Luo Guanzhong immediately wanted to nod when he heard this. After all, he was still counting on Li Jie to help him print books, but he said hesitantly, "Only Jing Hai Bo invited me, of course I am asking for it. But I live in the temple and say goodbye to the temple if I want to leave. In addition, I have some manuscripts to clean up, so..."

"It's okay, I'll help the old man clean up together. Even if the old man goes to the temple to celebrate his farewell!" Li Jie said immediately. He also wanted to see what was written on Luo Guanzhong's manuscript. What is the difference between the contents of books such as the Three Kingdoms and later generations?

Seeing Li Jie so enthusiastic, Luo Guanzhong did not hesitate anymore. He immediately asked Li Jie and the others to come in and then began to pack up his own things. Li Jie personally helped him, and he didn't even let the guards take action, because Luo Guanzhong didn't have much stuff, mainly manuscripts. Li Jie was afraid that the guards would break it by carelessly.

When the things were packed, Luo Guanzhong also woke up the old temple to say goodbye, and Li Jie also asked someone to take out the Hundred Guan Baobao to give it to the temple. Although the treasurebao has depreciated a lot now, the hundreds of Guan Baobaobao is not a small amount, and it is enough to renovate the entire Dragon King Temple.

Lao Miao Zhu was a little dizzy when he received the money. Then he bit his finger hard, but then screamed in pain, and then he was sure that he was not dreaming.

Li Jie took Luo Guanzhong into the city. It was already midnight when he returned home. He immediately asked someone to arrange a room for Luo Guanzhong to rest. Of course, he did not dare to have a thorough talk with the other party. After all, Luo Guanzhong is not young anymore, and it would be bad if he is really tired and sick.

The next morning, Li Jie took a day off. After Luo Guanzhong had breakfast, he came to visit again. At this time, Luo Guanzhong also changed into the new clothes prepared by Li Jie for him, and after washing up, he became much more energetic.

"I am paying homage to Bo Jing Hai. Thank you for your kind hospitality!" Luo Guanzhong took the initiative to salute when he saw Li Jie.

"Mr. Luo is so polite. I asked Mr. Li Hong and Mr. Li about your whereabouts, but there was no news for a long time. I didn't expect to find you so long!" Li Jie also hurriedly helped the other party up and said.

"I am really ashamed. I have lived in a place in the past few years and have been home for all the worlds. Brother Li only found me last year. I hesitated for a moment before I decided to come to Jinling to see Jinghai Bo. Unfortunately, you are not here when you came to the door yesterday." Luo Guanzhong felt a little embarrassed when he said this. After all, his life in the past two years was too embarrassing, and Li Jie saw his situation with his own eyes yesterday.

Li Jie also saw Luo Guanzhong's embarrassment and immediately changed the topic: "Mr. Luo, I heard that you have finished writing "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". I wonder if I can read it?"

"Of course!" Luo Guanzhong also hurriedly got up and took out the manuscript he had prepared long ago to Li Jie. Luo Guanzhong was not surprised that Li Jie knew that he had written the Three Kingdoms, because in order to print, he had asked many people to introduce the books he wrote, but unfortunately he did not receive a response. Li Jie accidentally knew that the books he wrote were not impossible.

Li Jie took the manuscript and opened it quickly. What surprised him was that the familiar song "Linjiangxian" was not at the beginning of the Three Kingdoms, because Yang Shen, the author of this poem, was not born yet, and was not added to the beginning of the Three Kingdoms. (Note: The previous chapter was my negligence, which has been corrected.)

Li Jie looked at Luo Guanzhong's manuscripts of the Three Kingdoms and found that some parts are different from those of later generations, but this is normal. After hundreds of years of circulation, whether it is printing, copying, or revision by later generations, it will cause some changes to the original work. There are countless versions of the Three Kingdoms in later generations, and some contents are still very different.

Looking at these familiar plots, Li Jie also showed an excited expression. He remembered that when he was in middle school, his favorite thing was the Three Kingdoms. He even read it countless times during a summer vacation, and almost memorized the entire Three Kingdoms story. Now seeing these familiar words has brought Li Jie's thoughts back to the past.

Luo Guanzhong was also happy to see Li Jie seeing his manuscript so fascinated, because it meant that Li Jie liked the stories he wrote, which also increased his confidence. In fact, he was running around for printing over the years and was rejected by countless people. He had already hit him out of nothing, and even had no confidence in himself.

After a while, Li Jie suddenly looked up and said, "Mr. Luo, this book will surely be passed down in future generations, so leave it to me for printing it!"

"Brother Jing Hai, are you really willing to invest in printing?" Luo Guanzhong's eyes were red with excitement when he heard this. This was his greatest wish in his life.

"That's of course. Not only this book, but if there are other books, he will also print and publish them together, so that everyone can know the talent of the old man!" Li Jie said excitedly again. He knew that Luo Guanzhong not only wrote about the Three Kingdoms, but also revised the Water Margin. In addition, he also wrote books such as the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Sansui Ping Demons.

"Really...really?" Luo Guanzhong was finally excited to tears when he heard Li Jie's words. He now doubted whether he was dreaming like the old temple prayer he had last night.

"You don't have to doubt me, Li Jie always keeps counting when speaking. If you don't have a place to go for the time being, you can stay here temporarily. When printing in the future, you still need to check and correct me personally!" Li Jie smiled again.

"This... how can you be so embarrassed?" Luo Guanzhong heard that Li Jie actually invited him to stay at home for a long time, and immediately showed a embarrassed expression again. But to be honest, he did not live in the capital, and the Dragon King Temple was only temporarily staying there.

"There is no need to refuse, and I have many questions to ask for advice from the old man!" Li Jie said immediately, and as he said, he raised some questions from the Three Kingdoms. When talking about these, Luo Guanzhong immediately sat upright and explained to Li Jie.

Next, Luo Guanzhong took out other manuscripts of his book, including the Water Margin written by his teacher Shi Nai'an. However, he is still revising it now, and it will probably take several months to complete it. Li Jie also took the opportunity to read the Water Margin and found that like the Three Kingdoms, it is also somewhat different from later generations.

The more Li Jie and Luo Guanzhong talked, the more he became more and more speculative. Especially for the two books, the Three Kingdoms and Water Margin, Luo Guanzhong would not talk about it. Li Jie was deeply influenced by later generations and had a deep understanding of the two books, which made Luo Guanzhong feel like he had found a confidant. Even the lunch was sent by Li Jie and the servants, and he still kept talking during the meal.

However, just when Li Jie and Luo Guanzhong had a good chat, Zhu Yunxi's carriage was parked in front of Li Jie's house. He had made an appointment with Li Jie to go to martial arts yesterday, but he didn't expect Li Jie to take leave and not enter the palace. Zhu Yunxi was worried that Li Jie was sick, so he came to visit him specially.
