In the suburbs, in a mountain village.
An old man wearing coarse cloth and straw sandals returned from the farmland.
The old man carries a hoe on his shoulders.
People passing by immediately waved and greeted the old man.
"Mr. Zhu, you are so old, but I didn't expect that your legs and feet are still so nimble!"
"Mr. Zhu, be more careful on weekdays. After all, you have to accept old age!"
"Uncle Zhu, the word you told me yesterday, I will write it to you in the evening. You must point it out to me then!"
Along the way, as long as the villagers saw the old man, a smile appeared on their faces for the first time.
The old man always waved and signaled immediately, as if he had already become one with the village.
However, when the old man crossed the threshold, he suddenly showed a sense of arrogance.
At the same time, the old man immediately looked towards the courtyard and saw two figures now appearing in his home!
The old man didn't blame him at all for the other party's uninvited visit.
Instead, he immediately looked at one of the unfamiliar faces and said, "Are you Liu Bang?"
Outside, Liu Yidou always regarded Liu Bang as his pseudonym.
The so-called Liu is Liu Yidou's surname.
The word "Bang" was used by Liu Yidou to always remind himself of his identity as a Shu citizen!
At that moment, facing the old man in front of him, Liu Yidou nodded immediately and said: "Prime Minister, I am Liu Bang. I have always heard of your name before, but now that I see it, it is indeed well-deserved!"
It turned out that the old man who looked like an old man from the countryside at this moment was the Prime Minister that everyone was talking about.
However, under the exaggeration of coarse cloth, Mr. Wolong's body has a bit of smoke and dust.
The moment the other party appeared, Liu Yidou's eyes had already fallen on the prime minister.
After a few conversations, Liu Yidou was keenly aware of the truth.
The Prime Minister in front of me had a somewhat unruly expression on his face as he spoke.
Just from such details, you can see his ability!
But in Liu Yidou's imagination, the old man in front of him should be a being with unparalleled magical powers.
But why, as the two sides approached, Liu Yidou didn't notice the slightest pressure from the other party?
Today, Liu Yidou's true strength has reached the realm of divine connection, and his own realm has also reached the level of concentration.
From Liu Yidou's point of view, even if he faced Emperor Wei, he could immediately notice the difference in him.
Only when facing the old man in front of him, Liu Yidou's perception seemed to go wrong!
In this case, there are only two possibilities.
Or, the old man in front of him is even stronger than the original Emperor Wei!
Or, instead of the old man in front of me, he is simply an ordinary person!
However, thinking of all the folk legends and the information that Shopkeeper Wan had given him before, Liu Yidou was unwilling to accept the fact that Mr. Wolong was an ordinary person!
"Master Prime Minister, you are now..."
Faced with such a scene, Liu Yidou hesitated for a long time, but finally bit the bullet and expressed his doubts.
But what Liu Yidou didn't expect was that before he could finish his sentence, Mr. Wolong opposite him had already waved his hand.
"I'm just a useless person now, there's nothing surprising about it!"
"If not, how could I live in seclusion in this place?"
"Senior, could it be that..." After hearing this response, Liu Yidou suddenly thought of a possibility. No wonder the Prime Minister disappeared from everyone's sight without warning.
It turns out that it’s because of the other party’s skill!
According to Liu Yidou's understanding, how could the original prime minister be a master above the level of the same city, and why did the other party turn into an ordinary person in the end?
For a moment, Liu Yidou felt endless curiosity in his heart.
But what Liu Yidou didn't expect was that the old man opposite seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. This time, before Liu Yidou could speak, the prime minister had already responded directly.
"One day a year ago, I suffered an assassination. Although I survived by luck, since then, I have become an ordinary person!"
"I know that this assassination is a warning to me, but someone wants to tell me that I must leave Shu!"
"However, after staying in this place for so long, I will always have some concerns. But at that time, I had become a useless person, so I could only settle for the next best thing and live in seclusion here!"
"Fortunately, after all these years, the group of people who caused trouble for me never showed up again, which is why I have to live here!"
Suddenly, a shocking fact came out from the mouth of the prime minister in front of him.
When Liu Yidou heard this, his pupils dilated, and a look of shock appeared in his eyes.
The prime minister at that time was unparalleled in his power. Looking at the entire Shu Kingdom, I am afraid that no one can surpass him.
Moreover, the time period one year ago happened to be the time when the late emperor was born!
Could it be that?
Is it because Emperor Wei, as his opponent, took action in secret, so that the Prime Minister was forced to make such a choice?
"Prime Minister, is it possible that this matter is related to the Wei State..." With a bit of shock, Liu Yidou immediately expressed his innermost suspicion.
But he didn't expect that the old man waved his hand immediately after hearing this.
The next second, a look of sadness appeared on the old man's eyebrows, and he sighed in front of Liu Yidou.
"Sometimes you know someone's face but not their heart. You think he is a good person, but you don't know that this guy has a heart of snakes and scorpions!"
"You are still an outsider on some things. You know too much and it is not good for you. However, you can guide Wan Changlong to find this place. It is considered a great achievement. As a reward, I must give you some benefits, right?"
At this moment, Mr. Wolong waved his hand to interrupt Liu Yidou's statement, and then suddenly changed the topic.
At the same time, his sharp gaze was directed towards Liu Yidou. The moment he looked at him, Liu Yidou felt as if his whole being was being seen through.
Thinking that there might be some unknown secret hidden behind this matter, Liu Yidou suppressed his curiosity and did not dare to ask any more questions!
However, thinking of the purpose of his visit this time, Liu Yidou plucked up the courage to say: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister, I will tell you the truth. My wives and I are all from the Kingdom of Wei!"
"However, we are not from the Wei Kingdom, but we fled there before. Now that we have returned, I want to own an industry in the Shu Kingdom!"
"It just so happens that there is a strange person among my wives. He said that the most profitable business these days is auction!"
"However, the so-called auction is not a simple matter. It must have a reputation, so I thought, can I ask the Prime Minister to stand up for me?"
"In this way, with the face of the Prime Minister, my auction house will definitely be able to prosper when the time comes!"
At this moment, Liu Yidou didn't hide anything and directly stated what he needed.
But Liu Yidou didn't expect that after hearing what he said, the Prime Minister opposite him would remain silent for a long time.
After half a stick of incense, there was no response at all. The other party's brows were slightly furrowed, as if he was deep in thought.
Finally, he raised his head and spoke like a threat.
"Boy, have you thought clearly?"
"It may not be a good thing for me to come forward!"
