Li Chenan and his party just entered the city.

It was getting late, so of course we had to find an inn first.

Liu Xiayin, who cried several times at the gate of the city, stopped crying. He stood in the last ray of sunset and realized that the night wind was cold and felt a little chilly on his body.

He wiped his eyes and suddenly looked at the setting sun and smiled:

"Liu Xia Yin, Liu Xia Yin, you are crying!"

"People are laughing!"

"I'm laughing while hugging the girl, laughing while drinking wine, laughing while eating delicious food... Is it worth crying?"

"It's not worth the bullshit in this world. It's better to go and have a drink with your friends!"

So, he turned around and walked into the city gate, went to a liquor store and bought two kilograms of soju, and then went to a braised food shop to cut a kilogram of pig ears. He just twisted it and went straight to the Sanwei Bookstore.

…

…

Sanwei Bookstore.

In the small yard in the backyard.

Unknowingly, one or two inconspicuous morning glory vines climbed up the bamboo fence.

Su Yian was squatting next to the bamboo fence at this moment, stretching out a finger to pluck the thin vines that were only five inches long, and then raised his eyes to look at the old willow tree in the corner of the yard.

Liuyaer has rice grains.

Spring has indeed come.

He stood up with a smile on his face.

The regent must have come.

That day, Hua Manting and he drank and chatted all night. From Hua Manting's words, he could hear Hua Lao's ardent expectations for the regent.

Hua Lao said that he was his old friend.

Hua Lao also said that he was not only unparalleled in poetry and writing, he also had insights on state governance that were beyond the reach of ordinary people——

Hua Laodaru's vision is certainly unique.

The person he likes is never wrong.

But in Su Yian's heart, she still had some doubts after all.

That regent is too young!

There are benefits to being young.

Like a newborn calf, full of vitality and fighting spirit.

But when it comes to running a country, being young has another huge disadvantage—

A young man cannot be prudent because of his arrogance; an old man can seek for the country because of his stability.

What young people lack is stability!

For a country, the most important thing is stability!

But Hua Lao said that the regent was not like an ordinary 18-year-old boy. He was neither arrogant nor impetuous, calm and collected in situations, methodical in dealing with things, and he made decisions and priorities just right...

This is a very high praise.

But what’s even more impressive is that Hua Lao actually said that this man’s talents and methods of doing things are far superior to those of Prime Minister Shang a hundred years ago!

He used the word "far beyond"!

Prime Minister Shang was the person who turned the tide when Ning State was in crisis!

He is one of the wise prime ministers who will go down in history!

Li Chenan...does he have higher abilities than Prime Minister Shang?

Xu was Hua Lao in order to make himself interested in the regent.

The interest is indeed there.

But don't let yourself down.

At this moment, Liu Xiayin walked in with wine and meat.

Su Yian turned around and looked around, but did not see the joyful expression of Liu Xiayin's visit in the past. Liu Xiayin's complexion was as black as charcoal.

"...What unhappy thing happened to me? It makes me happy!"

Liu Xiayin glanced at Su Yian and placed the wine and meat on the stone table.

Su Yian shook his head and smiled, went to the kitchen, took out two sets of bowls and chopsticks and came out.

The two sat across from each other. Liu Xiayin poured two bowls of wine and handed one over, then raised his eyes and looked at Su Yian:

"The Prince Regent is here."

Su Yian, who was holding the wine bowl, was startled, sat up straight, and his expression became serious.

"Now that the regent is here, as the magistrate of this county, you should go and greet him. Why did you come to me... Judging from your face, you were scolded by the regent?"

Liu Xiayin picked up the wine bowl and took two big sips.

He slapped his mouth and said, "Old Su, I think you have heard some news about the regent in the past two days."

"It's amazing that everyone is spreading the word!"

"He brags about why gods from heaven descended to earth, why he is the savior of our Ning Kingdom, why God gave birth to Li Chenan, and he will surely grace the literary world for five thousand years!"

Liu Xiayin put down the wine bowl, laughed at himself, and waved his hand: "Shit!"

"That's just what the people want!"

"But there is a word that describes it quite appropriately."

Su Yian was extremely shocked because what Liu Xiayin said was completely different from what Hua Manting said!

So he asked: "What word?"

"The word coquettish!"

"...How do you say this?"

So Liu Xiayin told Su Yian exactly what he had just seen outside the south gate.

This guy made Su Yian stupid.

He knew Liu Xiayin well.

He also believed in Liu Xiayin.

But Hua Manting came all the way from Kyoto, and even brought a jar of Huapingchun brewed by the Regent... Did he come to deceive himself?

So who is right and who is wrong?

"Did you admit the wrong person?"

Liu Xiayin waved his hand again: "Impossible!"

"The regent is coming from the south of the Yangtze River. The former prefect Chang sent someone to tell me this news."

"Of course, you want me to be more meticulous about receiving the regent. Mr. Chang should have come in person. Didn't he not be able to come because of that incident?"

"The person he sent personally described the regent's appearance to me, and specifically mentioned that he did not ride a horse or a sedan, but rode a black donkey!"

"He does ride a black donkey!"

"No wonder he rides a black donkey!"

"You don't know!"

"This enjoyment... the enjoyment has reached a new level!"

"There have been countless foolish kings in history, but there has never been one like this regent!"

Su Yian pondered for a moment, then picked up the wine bowl and took a sip.

"I heard that he was with Xi Wei's daughter... I heard that Xi Wei's daughter was riding a little black donkey... It seems that you have not mistaken the person."

"It's just that, if this is the case, it does not suit his status as regent."

Liu Xiayin raised his eyebrows, "What you said is so light and does not suit your status. Is this something that does not suit your status?"

"You can know its true nature by looking at the subtleties of a work!"

"First of all, as the regent of Ning State, how can he be with the daughter of a traitor who has brought disaster to the country and the people?"

"We in Ningguo don't have an emperor yet, and his regent represents Ningguo!"

"He must rectify himself in front of the people of the world before he can rectify others!"

"Secondly, since he has extremely high talents and learning, he should know etiquette, justice and integrity!"

"In broad daylight!"
