The four sisters of Zhongli Ruoyu left Huaxi Villa.

It is dusk at dusk.

Only Zhongli Ruoshui and Li Chenan were left in the main courtyard of the huge villa. Zhongli Ruoshui's personal maid Lin Xueer also went to other places with great sensibility.

Although she still felt that this son-in-law was not as good as the Young Master Cheng Zhe in Duke Cheng’s Mansion, nor as good as the Young Master Qi Zhixue in Duke Qi’s Mansion, she obviously understood the young lady’s feelings. As a servant, she had kept her duty.

Li Chenan and Zhongli Ruoshui wandered by the lotus pond at dusk, quiet and peaceful, relaxed and freehand, just like when they were in the Peach Blossom Villa in Guangling City, they were swimming in the peach forest together.

Zhongli Ruoshui roughly told Li Chenan about the current situation of Zhongli's mansion. Only then did Li Chenan realize that this family was so huge.

Of course, he was even more amazed at the power of the old man Zhong Lipo, and also admired Mrs. Fan very much.

He gave birth to eight children, none of them died young, each of them grew up healthy, each of them could be both literary and martial, and now each of them is his own side - this includes the three aunts of Zhongli Ruoshui!

What Li Chenan admired even more was that under Fan Taohua's education, all the women in Zhongli Mansion had a completely different personality from other women.

Of course, those wives who get married home don't count.

However, no matter which wife or granddaughter-in-law is from the house, no one dares to say anything in front of Mrs. Fan!

This is the momentum that the old lady has developed for a long time!

"Actually... Grandma doesn't want that, but whether it's my mother or other aunts, they seem to be born to be afraid of Grandma."

"Grandma is a very kind person. She has never beaten and scolded us grandchildren, and is even extremely doting. So under the protection of her, we are somewhat arrogant in front of our parents."

Li Chenan grinned, "This is actually a good thing. The old lady has helped you get rid of the constraints of those old rules and allow you to choose your favorite husbands yourself, rather than being bound by the words of the matchmaker from your parents' orders."

While walking, Li Chenan said, "This is to let you pursue happiness yourself, just like what she once did. This is a blessing for you and me."

In his heart, Li Chenan admired the old man he had never met yet.

This is the simplest opening of the people's wisdom when he comes.

In that era, this kind of thought was not worth mentioning, but in such a dynasty, this kind of thought was rare.

But she relieved the thoughts of a small group of people in Zhongli's mansion, looking at the entire Ningguo... Tens of millions of Ningguo people are still ignorant and still locked tightly by the feudal shackles.

They endured humiliation and carried the treacherous Ningguo forward with a hard work, and they worked tirelessly to maintain this twilight country.

Except for a small number of bandits who really couldn't survive, the vast majority of the people of Ningguo... are like sheep in the mountains and fields!

"What are you thinking?"

After leaving for a long time and not speaking, Li Chen'an's expression became more and more serious, which made Zhongli Ruoshui ask with concern.

Li Chenan was awakened by this sentence, and then he realized that he was thinking a little too much and a little far away.

"It's nothing, I just think... This villa is very beautiful, and the Taohua Villa in Guangling City is also very beautiful. They are all places that can make me feel at ease and linger. It's just our Ningguo,"

He looked up at the sky. It was dark and the lanterns on the lotus pond trail were already lit up.

"Maybe I'm thinking a little too much. The news I've learned these days is probably not very stable."

Zhongli Ruoshui stood still and looked up at Li Chenan. She did not deny it, but there was a star-like light in her eyes.

"I like how you think so, because you're not wrong."

Zhongli Ruoshui's eyes were drawn to the dark lotus pond, and the originally brilliant lotus flowers were of course gone.

"Grandma has long felt something about this. She even said... In three years, Ningguo will be in chaos!"

"I thought this chaos came from the invasion of the people in the Mobei Wilderness, but my grandmother later said that it was not like that. She said that this chaos came from Kyoto."

"You don't know His Highness the Crown Prince. In fact, His Highness the Crown Prince is a capable person, but the emperor doesn't like him, which led to him staying in the Eastern Palace for a full ten years... Now the emperor is obsessed with seeking immortality, but he doesn't pass on the throne to him."

Li Chenan was stunned, "Since the emperor has appointed the crown prince, why don't he like him?"

"This matter is a long story, and you will understand it in the future. I can only tell you that the Crown Prince is very fat, and the Emperor... does not like fat people, and the Emperor prefers the second prince!"

"The prince was a teacher at Hua Lao. He was gentle and knowledgeable, but he was not easy to move, so he gradually became a fat man."

"The second prince learned from Wen Zaidao, a famous martial arts scholar in Ningguo. Not only did he learn a good martial arts, he was also skilled in military strategy, which was in line with the emperor's appetite. But strangely, with Ji Tai's support, the emperor did not really abolish the prince."

"Some people say that there is probably the reason for Concubine Li... Concubine Li is the daughter of Duke Yan, and her son is the third prince Ning Zhiyuan."

"The emperor has only these three sons. On the surface, it seems that the prince and the second prince are fighting for the throne. But some people say that the person who is really trying to do something in the dark is Concubine Li... She probably wants to make a profit... but grandma said this is unlikely, because Concubine Li's personality is indifferent. Who knows the true or false?"

"But this has really become the biggest disaster in Ningguo!"

"In fact, Ningguo is not afraid of foreign enemies, because grandma said that Ning people have a strange characteristic? - they can live with humiliation like cattle and horses, but if the country is invaded by foreign enemies, they will be able to burst out with extremely strong cohesion and combat power again!"

"Even if they are so hungry that their chests are pressed against their backs, they can still fight to the death with their enemies with swords and guns!"

"After expelling foreign enemies, they will cheer for victory, and then continue to farm hungry and feed the corrupt officials in the court to a bright and greasy... This is really ironic, but it is true."

"The Prime Minister Shang was able to turn the tide a hundred years ago because he realized this characteristic of Ningren and used it to the greatest extent."

"In fact, in the more than 300 years of history of Ningguo, the Ning people have fought against many disasters for this country...such as wars and famines, but their lives have not changed much in the past three hundred years."

"Grandma does not appreciate the characteristics of Ningren, but the people in the court, both civil and military, praised them... They talked about Ningren's greatness, and even said that such a noble character came from the difficult history of Ningguo, and was forged by history. They were born as Ningren, and they should be proud of it..."

Zhongli Ruoshui shrugged and raised his lips, "Ning people are really proud of this, so grandma thinks that the fall of Ningguo... will not be due to foreign enemies, but internal struggles... Just listen to this, this is the reason why grandma made many arrangements in Shuzhou."

Li Chenan nodded slightly, raised his head to the stars and moon in the sky, and said, "The praises and praises of suffering are the greatest sins!"

"I won't talk about this anymore. I want to find Brother Shangdi. Do you know where he lives?"
