The third day of March in the 23rd year of Zhaohua of the Ning Empire.

Jiangnan Province.

Guangling City.

…

The spring is bright and it is a great time for spring outings. The shores of Huaping Lake are packed with tourists.

They are all handsome men and pretty women. Most of these handsome men are dressed as officials, wearing long gowns of excellent quality. Their hair is shiny and shiny. They also hold a folding fan in their hands. They gather together in groups of three or five, one by one.

He was full of energy, shaking his head and commenting on a certain poem and song that had been circulated in Guangling City recently, and his impassioned words had a hint of pointing out the country.

But those little eyes betrayed them.

Their little eyes are always sneaking a glance at some pretty girl inadvertently.

Li Chenan grinned, "Spring is here, and it's the season when animals are restless."

He no longer paid attention to the literati students and walked along Huaping Lake, walking among handsome men and beautiful women, and unknowingly arrived at the east bank of Huaping Lake.

There are few people here.

Pure.

There is also a pavilion named Yanyu.

There is no one in the pavilion, so I just want to take a rest.

Sitting in the Yanyu Pavilion, Li Chenan looked towards Huaping Lake again, and then he sighed softly:

"Come on, I really can't go back!"

"It's just the life experience of the original owner...!"

The original owner was also named Li Chenan, the eldest son of Li Wenhan, the dean of Zhuxia Academy in Guangling City.

The Li family is not considered rich or powerful in Guangling City, but it is also an extremely famous scholarly family.

Of course, a scholarly family has more rules. For example, the children of the family should first pursue knowledge.

But the original owner had no talent for this.

He was enlightened at the age of three and still could not memorize the Three Character Sutra at the age of nine.

Later, he learned martial arts and practiced martial arts with Guangling boxer Zheng Haoyang for three years but still failed!

If he can't succeed in martial arts, he will give up and start doing business again... This is already the bottom line that his father can't get any lower!

I bought a shop in Erjinggou Alley in Guangling City and opened a food shop. It lasted for three years and then closed down. I still owed a lot of debt!

His father Li Wenhan was so angry that he used his life savings to pay off his debts. He couldn't stand the wind that his concubine blew in his ears, so he kicked the original owner out of the house half a month ago!

Then something bloody happened.

The Shen family, a wealthy businessman in Guangling, came to break off their engagement. It was a baby marriage. Perhaps the Shen family was betting that Li Chenan would be the top scorer in high school——

The Li family in Guangling is extremely famous in Ningguo because legendary stories such as seven Jinshis in one family and three visits between father and son happened in the Li family, but they were not from the Li Wenhan lineage, but the eldest and second brothers of the Li family.

Of course, they don't live in Guangling City now, but in Yujing City, Kyoto.

In the Shen family, even if there is a queue, the next good luck will be the third bedroom of the Li family. However, I did not expect that the eldest son of the third bedroom is such an incompetent person. He is really blind and almost steals the chicken.

rice.

Of course, the Shen family would not agree to break off the engagement so easily, so this matter caused a stir in Guangling City. News of a fool in the Li family naturally spread, and for a while, the originally unknown name Li Chenan was changed.

A household name.

Li Wenhan was disgraced and called the original owner back to give him a scolding.

Ten days ago, the original owner died in depression, and Li Chenan came here.

No one knows that the Li Chenan who used to be is dead, and of course no one knows that the Li Chenan who is alive now has changed to a different person.

Li Chenan didn't care about those past grudges, because he was an outsider after all, and the things that had happened and the people he had experienced didn't have much to do with him.

"That's good. Although this place is backward, it is cleaner than the previous life."

"Well, it's a bit more leisurely."

Thinking like this, the mood that had been depressed for more than ten days suddenly became brighter. As a result, the hairpin-length painted lake became more vivid in his eyes.

Especially after a painting boat floated on Huaping Lake.

He looked at the three-story boat with great interest. There was a tall flagpole in front of the boat, and a bright red flag was flying on the flagpole. On the flag were written two big characters - Zhongli!

This is a compound surname. I vaguely remember that this surname has a very high status in Ningguo.

As for the high-level method, the original owner was quite dull and autistic, so he was not very impressed by it.

This also has nothing to do with him, and even the whole world has nothing to do with him at this time.

He felt like a guest.

For example, right now, he is sitting on that painted boat and feels that it is quite beautiful under the sun.

The cornices, pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings make it look very grand and elegant.

It is a pity that the windows with the Xiang Fei bamboo curtains are all closed tightly. If the bamboo curtains can be half rolled, there will be a pretty girl playing the pipa in the half rolled bamboo curtain, which would be the most beautiful.

Just when Li Chenan was thinking this, there were footsteps outside the pavilion.

He turned around and saw two people walking towards the pavilion.

The man in front is about sixteen or seventeen years old. He is not tall, about 1.6 meters tall, but has a good face. He is wearing a snow-white moire gown, with a wide-brimmed blue auspicious cloud belt tied around his waist, and his hair is tied up.

, wearing a small silver crown inlaid with jade.

Behind him is a handsome boy in Tsing Yi, holding a three-layer food box in his hand.

The master and servant stopped when they were three steps away from the pavilion.

The young man in front seemed to have never thought that there would be anyone in this remote Yanyu Pavilion. He raised his head and raised his eyebrows, frowning slightly and then quickly unfolding his eyebrows.

The boy behind him was about to step forward, but he opened the folding fan with a swipe and shook it. He put his other hand behind his back and walked into the Misty Rain Pavilion.

He sat opposite Li Chenan.

At this moment, Li Chenan's eyes turned to Huaping Lake. After all, it was very impolite to stare at a stranger, not to mention that this strange man was too handsome——

His lips are red and his teeth are white, and his skin is white and rosy, as if it could be broken by a blow.

Coupled with the willow-leaf-like eyebrows, the big watery eyes under the eyebrows, and the faint orchid fragrance in his nostrils... He almost thought this was a girl disguised as a man!

So just now Li Chenan glanced at this young man, and the second time he glanced at his chest, well, Babaili Pingchuan is a man.

A very handsome young man.

Just a bit girly.

The handsome man was looking at Li Chenan at this moment.

Except for his slightly tall and burly figure, Li Chenan was dressed very ordinary, just a blue cloth and linen jacket with two patches.

In addition... that man's profile is Li Chenan's. Well, the profile is more three-dimensional, his nose is very straight, and his thick sword-like eyebrows are very energetic.

There are so many energetic young people.

The handsome man lost interest in Li Chenan, and he also raised his head towards Huaping Lake. At this moment, the painting boat on the lake turned its bow and suddenly changed its course, and actually headed towards the pier in Huapingtung.

Then Li Chenan saw two huge banners hanging from the bow of the ship.

On the right it says: 'There is dust in the eyes and the world is narrow'

The left side is empty.

This should be a couplet, but the first couplet seems a bit stingy, as if it is venting some dissatisfaction, but I don't know why I didn't write the couplet.

Li Chenan pondered for a moment and read out with great interest:

"If you have dust in your eyes, the world will be narrow... but if you have nothing in your heart, the bed will be as wide as your bed."

He said this couplet casually, which actually suited his current state of mind, but it surprised the handsome young man.

"This brother..."

The handsome young man spoke at this time. Li Chenan turned around and was surprised by that face again. His eyes naturally fell on the man's chest again.

As if feeling the weight of Li Chenan's gaze, the handsome man's face suddenly turned red. He glared at Li Chenan, and Li Chenan smiled apologetically, "Ah, I'm sorry, the handsomeness of a young master is rare in the world, but I am Meng Lang."

The handsome man did not expect that Li Chenan would take the initiative to apologize. His eyes swept over Li Chenan's face. Li Chenan's brows were peaceful and his eyes were clear and upright. There was no hint of blasphemy, but it was incompatible with his age.

of calmness.

He shook the folding fan in his hand again to cover up his embarrassment, but asked curiously: "Brother, this second couplet is very good. Is that what you just thought of?"

Li Chenan nodded and said with a smile: "It's just my feelings, I want to make the young master laugh."

This is no joke!

This person's casual second line is absolutely perfect!

If this person presents this couplet to the people in Zhongli Mansion, he will definitely come out on top in the couplet competition.
To be continued...
