Chapter 569: Women’s Thoughts
It is a bit far from the south gate of Kyoto to Huaxi Villa on the bank of Huanhua River.
But for this young couple who haven't seen each other for three months, they don't think so.
Li Chenan came to Kyoto and hugged Zhongli Ruoshui into his arms in the carriage. This made the relationship between the two people a little closer. This made Li Chenan feel the reality of living in this world, and also made Zhongli
Ruoshui felt the fusion of two hearts.
There were noisy voices outside the carriage, but there was a warm atmosphere inside the carriage.
The one driving the cart was the sword dancing girl, followed by Zhongli Dang on horseback.
Zhong Lizang did not bring the eight hundred divine warriors with him, but he brought with him Zhou Huairen, Zhao Debao and Xiong Da, three fifty-year-old veterans!
They all rode war horses, and Fan Taohua gave them the war horses of the Shenwu Army!
Su Muxin and Murong He had already said goodbye to Li Chenan, and they went to Taiyuan University because Li Chenan could not go to Taiyuan University to meet Hua Manting for the time being.
Li Chenan's greetings need to be conveyed to Hua Manting by Su Muxin.
Of course, this move may attract some people's attention, but Li Chenan doesn't seem to care.
Almost a month has passed, and I think Liu Zuo, under the protection of Zhongli Mansion, is about to arrive in Shuzhou.
Cheng Yiren, the princess of Princess Yunchen who was killed by Li Chen'an and stepped on the cloud, suddenly realized that she was a little redundant. She went into the Marquis Dingguo's Mansion, greeted Mrs. Fan and sat down for a while.
After learning that Zhongli Qiuyang went to Linshui City to become the admiral of Guangling Navy, she had some ideas. Of course, she was not embarrassed to mention it to Mrs. Fan, but returned to Cheng Guogong's mansion happily.
As for the carriage of wine that Li Chenan brought, of course it was placed at Dingguo Hou Mansion.
At this moment, the two of them were still on their way to the Huaxi Courtyard. Zhong Lipo from Dingguo Marquis was already drinking Huapingchun with his wife Fan Taohua.
"This boy, he handled the incident at the South Gate quite well, but it would be better if he could be more ruthless and kill a few students who stirred up trouble!"
Zhongli Po stroked his snow-white beard, picked up the wine bowl and took a long drink.
“Good wine!”
"It tastes better than the one brought by Ruo Shui. Madam, try it quickly!"
Fan Taohua glanced at Zhong Lipo, picked up the wine bowl, and said: "I think he handled the South Gate matter impeccably. After all, he is a scholar. Although Wu Xichen mastered both Fuji Zhou Tian Jue and Fuji Sword.
I gave it to him... but his poetry is obviously better than his martial arts."
Zhongli Po chuckled: "Madam is right!"
"But the job that boy did at Huangyangyi didn't look like a scholar!"
"What's so different about him? Huang Sanlie wasn't a scholar back then? What did he do when he was a bandit in Yanqiu Mountain outside the Pass that looked like a scholar?"
Fan Taohua took a sip of wine, savored it for ten breaths, and then said: "I can tell you, if a scholar is ruthless, he will be more terrifying than a martial artist like you!"
"Especially when literati take power...such as the Prime Minister of Shang a hundred years ago!"
Zhongli was startled. When Shang Buqi became the Prime Minister of Ning State, he opened a coffin shop in Kyoto and gave away a total of 328 coffins for free to the people he killed!
The people called him Prime Minister Qingtian, but many officials in the court secretly called him Prime Minister Butcher!
He is just a scholar, without any martial arts skills, but he has killed more people than any master in the world...
Now Madam suddenly puts Shang Buqi on a par with Li Chenan...
"I'm afraid that boy still needs some heat!"
"That's why I didn't connect him to the Hou Mansion because I just wanted to know how capable he is!"
"...But after all, he is a white man and has no rights in his hands!"
"If he can do something without power, then he can do more with power!"
Zhonglipo frowned, pondered for a moment, and drank the wine in the bowl.
"Hey... I'm afraid Ruoshui won't like him like that."
"If it were a peaceful and prosperous time, I wouldn't like it as a wife, but now this situation..."
Fan Taohua also drank up the wine in the bowl, "Everyone in Zhongli Mansion must plan for the future!"
"Li Chenan is no exception!"
…
…
Jian Wu drove the carriage onto the boulevard beside Huanhua Creek.
Zhongli Ruoshui was still nestling in Li Chenan's arms, with a nervous look on his face, although Li Chenan was very calm when he talked about the Huang Yangyi incident just now.
"I didn't expect that Shen Qiaodie would do such a crazy thing, but this incident also served as a wake-up call for us."
"I heard that Huo Xi, the old head of the Huo family, came to Kyoto with his grandson Huo Shufan a few days ago. Grandma said that the Huo family was invited by Concubine Li... Concubine Li has a son and a daughter, and one son is three. The prince Ning Zhiyuan and his daughter are the sixth princess Ning Shuyu."
"Princess Shuyu suffered from a serious illness when she was young. Later she saved her life, but became disabled... Her legs were lame and she also had a scar on her face."
"I saw him before when I went to the palace. He was relatively withdrawn and a little sensitive."
"Calculating, she should be around fourteen or fifteen years old this year. I originally heard that the emperor wanted to arrange a marriage for her, but she refused. For some reason, she fell in love with Huo Shufan... So this time the Huo family comes to Kyoto, if there is no What an accident, Huo Shufan may become the Sixth Princess's consort."
"Concubine Li is a relatively unique existence in the harem. She is from the Duke of Yan's palace. She is now the youngest daughter of Duke Yan and the younger sister of the great master Yan Jidao."
"Although the Imperial Concubine Ji controls the Imperial Concubine Ji, Concubine Ji does not dare to bully Concubine Li. Concubine Li does not seem to have that ambition. She lives in Lihua Palace and spends her days burning incense, worshiping Buddha or planting grass. Things like growing flowers.”
"What I think is that the Huo family has been spying on your wine. What the Huo family is afraid of now is your identity in the Yulonghui, or it may be because of the Zhongli Mansion. But once Huo Shufan becomes the sixth princess's consort...and Yan With the support of the Duke's Mansion, it's hard to say whether the Huo family will do anything to you."
"So, you must be more careful in the future, and be sure to bring a few experts with you when you go out!"
Only then did Li Chenan know the reason why Huo Xi rushed to Kyoto, and also realized that there was such a complicated relationship behind it.
When he was in Guangling City, Huo Chuanming showed enough sincerity to him, and it didn't look like he was fake.
Throughout Guangling Prefecture, Huo Chuanming could really make a lot of money by joining forces with him, which was enough to make up for the Huo family's losses in Guanglingsan.
Therefore, the Huo family will not take the initiative to antagonize themselves.
Of course, even if Zhongli Ruoshui didn't say this, Li Chenan had never relaxed his guard against the Huo family.
The two people were talking and the carriage drove into Huaxi Villa.
When they arrived in front of the archway of Huaxi Courtyard, the carriage stopped.
Zhongli Ruoshui sat up straight, straightened his clothes, and the two got out of the carriage.
Before Li Chenan could see what was going on in the other courtyard, he heard a voice:
"Sisters, come quickly, the third sister is here!"
"We have the greatest talent in Ningguo, come here quickly!"
Then, Li Chenan raised his head and was shocked to see four beautifully dressed women flying out of the other courtyard!
Zhongli Ruoshui was also surprised, his face turned red, and he whispered in Li Chenan's ear: "They are all my cousins."
