Sunset.

Kyoto Tamakyo City.

In the backyard of Tai Academy, in a small courtyard full of flowers.

Hua Manting put his hands behind his back, looked at the sunset on the horizon, and after a while, he slowly turned around and looked at the warm boiled rain who was drinking tea.

The regent Li Chen'an returned from the state of Wu.

According to the original time, he was supposed to arrive in Kyoto at the end of July.

But because of the fourth princess Ning Chuchu, he ran thousands of miles from Annan Road to the Northern Desert Road!

Now, the flying pigeon biography of the Imperial City Division has been sent back, which made Wen Zhuanyu and the others let go of their hanging hearts.

Wen Boiling came here after the rain and passed the news to Hua Manting.

Hua Manting also put his mind at ease.

"What a bold man!"

Hua Manting walked to the table and sat down, "It's nothing to cross that Death Valley, after all, there are so many masters around him." ”

"But he killed Yuwenfeng's second eagle...... Very good! ”

"Is there any movement over there in the Great Wilderness Country?"

Wen Boilyu put down the teacup and grinned: "Yuwen Feng didn't order the garrison of Jiuyin City to go south, he did two things. ”

"What two things?"

"One is to build a majestic city on the opposite side of Death Valley, with the name of the city Border City."

"After this city is built, it will only be separated from the Yanjing City of our Ning Kingdom from that Death Valley!"

"It's only three hundred miles away!"

"Second...... It was the establishment of a Tianji Pavilion similar to the Imperial City Division. ”

"The first thing is easy, this Tianji Pavilion...... The brains of the desolate people are simple, and they are not good at espionage and intelligence, so it is not so easy to set up, which requires the use of the Central Plains people. ”

"Yu Wenfeng is open-minded on the surface, but he is actually suspicious by nature."

"In such an important department, it takes him a long time to inspect the loyalty of the people of the Central Plains, so the first thing that Tianji Pavilion was established on, he asked the pavilion master of Tianji Pavilion to personally lead the team and head to the northwest."

Hua Manting was stunned, "What are you doing to the northwest?" ”

"It is said to track down the secrets of the former Loulan Kingdom."

Hua Manting frowned, stroked his long beard, and nodded after a while, not surprised by the name Loulanguo.

"Who is the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion?"

Wen Zhuoyu raised his eyes, "This is top secret!" ”

Hua Manting grinned and didn't ask the question again, what he asked was:

"Where is Chen'an now?"

"It's time to enter Gangnam Province."

"Oh, that's still half a month before we get to Kyoto...... By the way, has the fifth princess of Wu arrived in Kyoto? ”

"It seems that you really studied your knowledge behind closed doors, Princess Qin arrived in Kyoto five days ago, and I went to greet her in person, and I lived in the plum garden."

Hua Manting picked up the tea cup and smiled:

"I can't control these young people, a bad old man!"

"They are more energetic, more idealistic, and more thoughtful."

"As for me, I care about Chen'an's safety, after all, after he returns to Kyoto, he should get married!"

"My daughter is going to marry him, he is half of my son, for my daughter, I will naturally care more about him."

Wen Zhuanyu glanced at Hua Manting, "Your daughter has found a good home, but my daughter ......"

"Isn't Xiaowan on Peach Blossom Island now?"

"Hey......"

Wen Boilyu sighed, "She went to the Great Wilderness Country!" ”

Hua Manting was taken aback, "What are you doing in the Great Wilderness Country?" ”

"Many people on Peach Blossom Island have gone to the Great Wilderness Country, and this time she sent me a letter."

She said that Peach Blossom Island wants the peach blossoms on the island to bloom on the land of the Great Wilderness Country...... She also said that she missed staying in Ningguo...... Cutting and untidying is still messy...... It's better not to cut and ignore it, go farther, and maybe you can forget. ”

Hua Manting naturally understood the meaning of these words.

He let out a long sigh, "Chen An returned to Beijing to ascend the throne as the emperor, but the palaces in the harem are all empty, why don't you persuade them?" ”

Wen Zhuoyu shook his head: "Feelings are such a thing, I can't persuade them, and I don't want to persuade them." ”

"The twisted melon is not sweet, Chen An and the little girl...... Maybe there is no fate at all, or maybe fate has not arrived, so it is better to go with the flow. ”

Hua Manting sighed for three breaths and asked, "Do you like Miao Qiuqin more or the seventh princess who returned to Hui more?" ”

Without waiting for the temperature to boil the rain to answer, Hua Manting leaned over and asked in a low voice: "Or is there still someone else in your true love?" ”

Wen Zhuanyu stood up, stretched his waist, and glanced at Hua Manting: "What do you think about when you get older?" ”

"Young and affectionate, all are true love, but some love can't be obtained, some love can only be given up, and some love ...... Only in the heart. ”

"Now it's twilight, and then let's talk about love...... I heard that Emperor Wu is now wetting his shoes in the wind, what to love? ”

"Let's go!"

"Although you are no longer the head of the Tai Academy, you still have the name of Ning Guo Confucian, and the exam will start in the autumn of the fifth day, if you are too idle, why don't you go to Guozi Jian to get a sign and go to Changle City to invigilate!"

"This is the talent your son-in-law will need in the future!"

"Senior brother, let's use snacks!"

Warm boiled rain walked away.

Hua Manting looked at the back of Wen Boiling Rain and smiled.

He also stood up, thought for a moment, and before the dinner had been settled, he walked to another small courtyard not far away.

In that courtyard lives the courtyard of the Tai Academy!

……

……

August 28, 25th year of Zhaohua.

Ningguo's three-day autumn festival was held in Changle City.

More than 6,000 students participated in this autumn festival, which is the largest in the history!

Also in the evening of this day, Li Chenan and his entourage came to Linshui City.

Linshui City is a special city in Guangling Prefecture.

It is located at the confluence of the Yuguang Canal and the Yangtze River.

As the node of the two shipping nodes in the north and south, it should have been extremely prosperous, but because of the trouble of the Shuangjiao Mountains and Bandits in the Yuguang Canal, the merchant ships could not pass, so only the Yangtze River shipping and ships were berthed here.

Since the Shuangjiao Mountain and Water Bandits were exterminated two years ago, the Yuguang Canal has gradually had ships coming and going.

But they are all small ships of the people.

The large ships of the Imperial Court were supposed to be built in the docks of the waterfront port, but the dockyards of the waterfront port fell into disrepair and it lost almost all of its functions.

Even the craftsmen who built large ships, which were originally under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Industry, had long since been dismissed because the Ministry of Industry had no money to pay and no work to do.

Waterfront City is now slightly more prosperous than before, but this prosperity does not match its location.

And the existence of Linshui City was originally for the once famous Guangling Water Master of Ningguo, so Linshui City had no city lord from the beginning of its establishment.

The person who runs this city is the successive Admirals of the Navy.

Now the Admiral of the Guangling Water Division is Zhongli Qiuyang of Zhongli Mansion.

The regent Li Chen'an was about to arrive in Linshui City, and Zhongli Qiuyang had already received the news, he was very excited, but a little apprehensive.

I'm excited to meet this future brother-in-law.

Once Guangling City was goodbye, and in the blink of an eye, two years have passed, and he has walked from the small owner of the tavern under the banyan tree to the position of regent.

When he returns to Kyoto, he will also become the emperor of Ningguo!

Of course, Zhongli Qiuyang was very happy about this.

But about the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion, his father had already sent a letter to tell him.

Grandpa has now left home and is missing.

Grandma went to find grandpa...... Father said that this is to draw an end to the relationship under the peach tree back then.

Kyoto's Jokoku Prefecture actually exists in name only.

So will Li Chenan settle accounts after the autumn?

After all, what grandpa did, if he is investigated, it will be a crime of beheading!

But the little sister is still by Li Chenan's side.

The relationship between the two does not seem to be affected.

It won't be too much of a problem.

Standing at the gate of Linshui City, Zhongli Qiuyang, who was originally a very chic son in Guangling City, suddenly felt a little melancholy.

Cheng Yiren, the lord of Yunchen County, stood beside him, looked at Zhongli Qiuyang's appearance, and she suddenly laughed:

"There's nothing to worry about."

"He's not that kind of person."

"He owes me a horse!"
