Night.

Long sleepless nights.

In the pavilion in the back garden of Xia Guogong's mansion, the flowers were full of flowers and had already floated away.

Xia Guogong Xia Mochou is still sitting here.

He's drinking.

Alone.

A jug of wine.

Bite after bite.

As an old fox, of course, he is not so easy to be fooled by Hua Manting.

In fact, it has been more than ten days since Hua Manting arrived in Dongxu City.

In the past ten days, Hua Manting has been to the Xia Guogong Mansion three times.

The two had known each other for decades, Hua Manting had traveled to the Kingdom of Wu when he was young, and he Xia Mochou had also been an envoy to the Kingdom of Ning.

He is a military general.

But he was deeply affected by Xi Wei.

Therefore, his literary attainments are also very good.

In the state of Wu, he has the reputation of a Confucian general.

Goodbye Hua Manting tonight, and even finally promised Hua Manting to become another ridicule of Wu Guo......

This is not because Xia Mochou is really because of Xi Wei's so-called lofty thoughts, but just the undercurrents hidden under the calm surface of Wu Guo today.

The first to cut the feudal domain!

In his status as a prince of the country, he knew that this was not groundless.

Is it good to cut the feudal domain?

He had thought about it carefully.

This policy is good from the standpoint of impartiality, but from the standpoint of the individual......

His daughter Xia Wanyi is the princess of the eldest prince Prince Ping Wu Cheng!

If this knife goes down, my daughter and son-in-law, as well as those grandchildren and granddaughters, I'm afraid no one will be spared!

In the face of family affection, he must stop the prince from cutting the feudal domain after he ascended the throne.

He has been watching these days, hoping that the emperor will deny the matter at a court meeting, but the emperor has not said a word.

This shows that the emperor also has this intention.

Today's emperor is not a fuel-efficient lamp!

Don't look at the fact that he seems to have handed over the government to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to take care of now, but as long as he is alive, he may turn his hands over at any time!

Especially the two forces in his hands-

Cardinal!

And the Condor!

Gou Zhong, the general of the Condor Army, is called the emperor's eagle!

And Mo Wuchen in the cardinal room is called the emperor's dog!

This eagle and dog are absolutely loyal to the emperor, if the emperor is really determined to cut the domain...... Even if you can't resist, you have to find a way back for your children and grandchildren to save their lives.

Hua Manting said tonight that Li Chenan was not dead!

Xia Mochou did not have the slightest doubt.

Because if Li Chen'an really died, Hua Manting would definitely not come to Wu Kingdom!

He will definitely be his head in the Tai Academy of Ningguo!

On the other hand, he also heard that his granddaughter Xia Hua was in love with Li Chen'an...... The way out is so clear.

Even if you can use Li Chen'an's power to make an amazing move in Wu Kingdom, it is not impossible!

What about agreeing to be a taunt in the court?

What's more, he is not the first ridicule of Wu State.

So who was the first?

Just when Xia Mochou was speculating carefully, Xia Liu walked over with her daughter Xia Hua.

"Father!"

"Grandpa!"

The two bowed, Xia Mochou glared at Xia Liu, looked at Xia Hua and smiled happily.

"Come on, sit down!"

"The last time my grandfather went to Tianshan, I haven't seen it for more than a year, and my granddaughter seems to have grown taller again!"

"Sit down, let grandpa take a look at ......"

Xia Mochou held Xia Hua in one hand, turned his head to look at Xia Liu, the smile on his face disappeared, and he glared at Xia Liu again, "What are you doing here?" Why don't you go to the kitchen and get some good dishes to go with wine? ”

"Lao Tzu wants to have a drink with his granddaughter, you stand here and are an eyesore! Roll ......! ”

Xia Mochou waved his hand with disgust, and Xia Liusheng left without love.

Xia Hua grinned and sat opposite Xia Mochou, "Grandpa, I seem to have been in trouble tonight." ”

Xia Mochou stroked his long beard and raised his neck: "What's the matter if the old man's granddaughter gets into trouble?" That's not a big deal! ”

"Tell me, what did you do?"

Xia Hua pursed her lips: "I, I seem to have offended the little stick!" ”

Xia Mochou suddenly opened his mouth wide, hesitated for a moment, and asked in a low voice, "What are you talking about...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? ”

"Yes!"

Xia Mochou swallowed a mouthful of saliva, looked left and right, and leaned over: "You just returned to Kyoto, why did you offend him?" ”

Xia Hua sighed for three breaths and told Xia Mochou about tonight's cultural meeting.

"I just can't get used to him stepping on Li Chenan and Mr. Li...... Tomorrow, no one in the world can compare to the two of them in poetry, but the little signature just opened his eyes and said nonsense! ”

"Isn't that a reversal of right and wrong?"

"I—I couldn't help but recite the poem that my husband did, and my father said, and the face of the little sign turned blue."

"Xiao Zhizi was very small when he was a child, I'm afraid, I'm afraid he will hold a grudge against Xia Fu!"

Xia Mochou stroked his long beard and sat up straight, "Oh......"

"Mr. Li and his wife...... They headed for the Sword Washing Tower? ”

Xia Hua originally thought that her grandfather would think carefully about how to deal with Wu Qian, but she didn't expect her grandfather to ask such an inconsequential matter.

She nodded, "Mr. and Mrs. are going to fulfill his last wish for Chen An." ”

When Xia Mochou heard this, he suddenly laughed.

Xia Hua was stunned, thinking that her father said that she had pierced the sky, why was her grandfather so light-hearted?

He could even laugh!

"Don't worry about anything, after all, there are still more years left for the crown prince to ascend the throne."

"Grandpa wants to ask you, you went down to Tianshan Mountain to Ningguo, and you also saw Li Chenan...... What do you think of Li Chenan's child? ”

Xia Hua was stunned for a moment, her face suddenly turned red, and after a while, it slowly dimmed.

She lowered her head slightly and sighed: "No matter how good it is, what can it be?" After all, people cannot be resurrected after death. ”

Xia Mochou leaned over again, looking at his granddaughter's face carefully, he already understood that this granddaughter really fell in love with Li Chen'an.

He didn't say that Li Chenan was still alive.

What he said was: "Actually, the prince is extremely interested in you, since Li Chen'an is dead...... You are not young anymore, after all, you want to marry, just marry the prince, the queen of Wu must be yours, what do you think? ”

Xia Hua raised her head suddenly, her eyes were fixed, and her words were extremely firm: "Not how!" ”

"Chen An died, I, my heart has condensed the Heavenly Demon Appearance, it is him!"

"There's no way I'm going to marry anyone again!"

"I want to go back to the Tianshan Mountains and live on the Tianshan Mountains for the rest of my life like the master!"

Xia Mo raised his eyebrows, but he was not angry, but asked extremely curiously: "You said, you have condensed the Heavenly Demon Phase?" Is this heavenly demon or Li Chen'an? ”

"Well, the Heavenly Demon Mind Method emphasizes unswerving until death, so ...... I won't marry anyone! ”

"Grandpa respects your opinion!"

"This time I went back to Kyoto, but I could stay a few more days, and your mother misses you every day, so I will accompany your mother more."

Xia Hua bit her lip, "I'm afraid it will take a while before I can come back to accompany my mother." ”

"What else do you have?"

"I—I want to go to the Sword Washing Building."

Xia Mochou pondered for a moment, "To see that Mr. Li?" ”

Xia Hua nodded, and a flash of brilliance bloomed in her eyes:

"Mr. is very talented, and after he goes to the Sword Washing Building, he will travel the world with his wife. I—I'm worried that I'll never see him again, so ...... In addition, I also have to go to the Sword Washing Building to find Dugu Han to compete! ”

Xia Mochou looked at Xia Hua again, "It's okay, then you go and talk to your mother." ”

"Thank you grandpa, ...... about the little sign?"

Xia Mochou waved his hand: "Tomorrow before you go to the Sword Washing Building, come to the study, grandpa writes a letter, you bring it to Wu Ximiao, the owner of the Sword Washing Building, for your grandfather!" ”

"Okay, then the granddaughter will go down first."

"Hmm!"

Xia Hua left happily, and Xia Liu came with a sad face.

Xia Mochou looked at Xia Liu, and this time he did not reprimand, but said:

"Sit down and have a few drinks with your father."

"It's the Mid-Autumn Festival again, and I'm afraid of the Mid-Autumn Festival this year...... After the Mid-Autumn Festival, winter will soon begin. The winter in that place in Beifu will be very cold, so you have to ask your sister and brother-in-law to prepare more things for the winter! ”

Xia Liu was startled, and then heard his father say again:

"Remember, tomorrow you will invite Xiao Chuanting...... It was the pen master of the original Yong Kingdom who invited him to come to the house for a trip to his father, and wanted to ask him to make a pen by himself. ”

Xia Liu was blindfolded.

I thought that my father gave up the pen and followed Rong, and it has been decades since he put down the pen.

Why do you suddenly want to make a pen?

"Pour the wine!"

"Wuyaguan, how is the situation on your brother Xia Li's side?"

Xia Liu poured wine and replied: "Ningguo's Red Flame Army still hasn't moved, but I heard that Wu Mian went to Yudan City and gathered many carpenters to secretly get something......

"In addition, it is said that the Ministry of Industry of the Ning State sent people to set up a firearms bureau in Yudan City, and the defense is extremely tight, I am afraid that it is making fireworks."

"Oh,"

Xia Mochou drank a glass of wine, "This is endless, I'm afraid I can't keep it!" ”

“…… Isn't that second brother ......? ”

Xia Mochou waved his hand, "General Gou Zhong's eldest son Gou, doesn't it mean that he is familiar with military books and has the posture of a general?" ”

"Gou Kuo gets along very well with the prince, but now he is just a thousand commanders of the city guard...... This can't help his talent! ”

"So after you go to court tomorrow, let the officials who have been raised over the years send a letter to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to impeach Xia Li, and ...... Xia Liu stubbornly defended the endless pass and did not want to forge ahead, delayed the fighter plane, and gave Ning Jun enough time to prepare! ”

"If it goes on like this, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to protect the boundless pass, so I recommend him to be the general and take over from Xia Li to guard the boundless pass!"

Xia Liu was taken aback, "This ...... Isn't the second brother ......?"

Xia Mochou waved his hand again, "Nothing is more important than being alive!" ”

"Will the prince be handsome?"

"Originally, he was afraid that he would hesitate, but since Xia Hua offended him tonight, he would not hesitate at all!"

Xia Liu poured wine again and asked in a low voice: "Father, is the situation very unfavorable?" ”

"Why are you so stupid!"

Xia Mochou reprimanded Xia Liu, and said: "Do what your father says, time is running out, in two days, my father will be seriously ill and bedridden, and he will not show up again, and no one will see him!" ”

"In addition, you go to the White Deer Academy more, the White Deer Academy has declined over the years, but don't forget the old master of Qiuchenqiu!"

"He is not only Xia Hua's enlightenment teacher, nor is he just a great Confucian of Wu State."

"If it weren't for the current emperor beating the mandarin ducks, he and the eldest princess of Tianyin Pavilion would probably have been full of children and grandchildren!"
