When Xia Hua said the name Li Chenan, Hua Manting was slightly surprised.

But not too surprised.

A handsome young man like Li Chenan, who is full of poems and books and yet holds a high position, is of course the object of admiration in the hearts of many young girls.

This girl is indeed very beautiful and has a very good temperament. She should be the daughter of a wealthy family in Shuzhou.

Maybe Mei Fangxi knows him.

Hua Manting poured another glass of wine for Xia Hua and said with a smile: "It turns out that the girl also likes Li Chenan... But I heard that he not only has a fiancée named Zhongli Ruoshui... he also has a fiancée named Xiao."

"The girl seems to have arrived a little late."

Xia Hua raised her head and looked at the rain outside the pavilion. She pondered for a moment and then said:

"Actually, I don't know if I have fallen in love with him...probably not!"

She withdrew her gaze and looked at Hua Manting. Maybe Hua Manting was very kind, or maybe she didn't know him anyway, and Xia Hua just wanted to find someone to talk to.

"How do you say that?"

"I just think his poetry is really good, and he can indeed be called a poet."

"This should be some admiration for him, that is, appreciation of his talent. As for liking..."

Xia Hua thought for a moment and shook her head: "I'm sure I'm just curious about him, not like him."

Hua Manting stroked his long beard and smiled. He thought this girl was quite cute.

Of course, he did not encourage this girl to pursue Li Chenan. Wouldn't that be adding a competitor to his daughter?

"I think you don't need to be curious about him."

"Poems and articles, for a girl of your age who has read books, if you just appreciate them, they can cultivate your sentiments. But if you indulge in them and even give birth to fantasies... then it is poison!"

"He is the regent of Ning State. In the future, he will ascend the throne and become the emperor of Ning State... Let's not say whether he will marry you after he becomes the emperor. Even if he marries you... marrying an emperor seems to be a good thing."

"But how cold, lonely and cruel the harem is, only the people in the palace know this."

"It's best that the girl doesn't like him!"

"Think about it. Emotionally, you came a little late. You definitely can't compare with Zhongli Ruoshui."

"That Miss Xiao, she has been with Li Chenan for more than half a year!"

"We live and die together, we share joys and sorrows, and we ride on the same donkey! The two of them have not only gone through the test of time, but they have similar personalities and temperaments to the point where they are inseparable."

"In terms of family background, you can't compare to Zhongli Mansion."

"In terms of martial arts, you can't compare to Miss Xiao."

Xia Hua looked at Hua Man Ting at this time and thought, how do you know that this girl can't compare with them?

My family background is as good as Zhongli’s!

My martial arts... then Miss Xiao is better than me?

Hua Manting looked at Xia Hua's unconvinced look, grinned and waved her hand, "Things aside, you actually don't know much about Li Chenan."

"For someone like Li Chenan, what the world considers to be beauty is secondary to him!"

"Besides, Li Chenan has to go to Wu Kingdom for Zhongli Ruoshui... He has no intention of liking other girls now, and it is difficult for a third girl to come into his heart."

When Xia Hua heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up.

She ignored the words of dissuasion from the person in front of Hua Man Ting!

"You said he is going to Wu Kingdom?"

"yes."

"Why is he going to Wu State?"

"I went to the Xijian Tower with the intention of finding an opportunity to practice the Fu Er Zhou Tian Jue to save Zhong Li Ruoshui's life... Many people know about this, but you still don't know?"

"ah……"

Xia Hua suddenly panicked: "I, I rarely go out."

"Oh, Li Chenan entered Chongqing Mansion today, have you seen it?"

Xia Hua nodded, "I just saw it in the crowd."

"Then don't read too much, and don't compare him with other teenagers!"

Hua Manting raised her wine glass, "I'm worried that you won't be able to find the right man after comparing, and in the end you will end up making a mistake, girl, for your whole life!"

Xia Hua also raised her wine glass, and the old man and the young man took a drink.

Xia Hua put down the cup, her face no longer showing the disappointment when she came in.

She stood up slowly and bowed: "Thank you for the wine, husband, and thank you for your words."

"It's time for me to go, see you soon!"

"Well, come and sit down when you have time."

"good!"

Xia Hua turned and left.

A look of joy.

Hua Manting picked up the book again and didn't take it to heart. She just thought she had saved a lost girl.

…

…

Zhongli Garden.

Yingchun Pavilion.

It's very lively here.

For the people of Zhongli Mansion, this person is not only the regent of Ning Kingdom, but also the future uncle of Zhongli Mansion.

This is the first time for most people here to see Li Chenan.

Although they already knew that Li Chenan was only eighteen years old, after they actually saw him, they were amazed at how handsome this young uncle was... not only handsome, he really had the aura of a superior person about him.

After all, he is the regent of Ningguo!

Zhong Liyou welcomed Li Chenan to the top with great care.

"The Prince Regent has been tired from traveling all the way, so I'll prepare a glass of wine for the Prince Regent to catch the wind and wash away the dust!"

Li Chenan waved his hand and smiled slightly: "Uncle, this is too raw."

"When I get to you, it's like I'm back home."

"This is not in the imperial court, and I am not a regent here. Just call me Chen'an, so I think I can drink two more glasses if I stay for a while."

With just a few words, Li Chenan made everyone sitting there look at him with admiration, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became much more relaxed.

Zhong Liyou laughed: "Then... it is better to obey orders than to be respectful."

He sat with Li Chen'an on his left, "My dear nephew, Uncle Rong would like to introduce to you all of you here... They are all core figures of the Zhongli Mansion."

So Zhong Liyou introduced them around, and Li Chenan remembered their names.

Especially Yuan Su!

This old man is the commander-in-chief of the Divine Guards.

This reception banquet was relaxed and happy, and Li Chenan handled it calmly and behaved well.

He once again gained the recognition of these people. At the same time, he also observed their words and emotions, and felt slightly strange in his heart——

He didn't tell from anyone's look or words that Zhongli Mansion had any bad intentions towards him!

They really regard him as the uncle of Zhongli Mansion!

They desperately hoped that he could cure Zhongli Ruoshui's illness!

They even expected him to become the emperor of Ning after curing Zhongli Ruoshui!

I drank a lot of wine.

It’s Huapingchun produced in Shuzhou!

Many people were drunk, but in their drunken speeches, no one showed the slightest move against him!

They love him from the bottom of their hearts!

Even a soldier like Yuan Su is no exception!

The banquet dispersed.

Zhong Liyou dismissed many people, and he took Li Chenan to sit in front of the tea table and cooked a pot of tea with his own hands.

Sitting next to Li Chenan were Yuan Su, Yuan Sanye and Liu Zuo Liu Daotai.

"Good nephew,"

Zhong Liyou was slightly drunk, but his thoughts were still very clear.

"This painting of Pingchun has made the Zhongli Mansion a lot of money."

"According to the original agreement, your share has been given to Ruoshui."

"These are secondary,"

Zhong Liyou poured a cup of tea for each of Li Chenan, Yuan Su and Liu Zuo. He looked up at Li Chenan and his expression became serious:

"Before my mother died, she sent me a letter!"
