Chapter Ninety-Five: The Flying Boat
Guangling City is full of wind because of peach blossoms.
There is no wind on the banks of the Huanhua River in Kyoto's Yujing City.
The sun is a little strong.
However, the banyan tree on the bank of Huanhua Creek shades the sky and the sun, giving this world a sense of coolness.
Under the banyan tree, in the pavilion on that side, Zhongli Ruoshui and the fourth princess Ning Chuchu sat opposite each other.
There was a box of Yun Jin Kee pastries on the table, all of which were the ones Zhong Li Ruoshui liked, originally Ning Chuchu thought that Zhong Li Ruoshui would be happy to eat without an image, but he didn't expect Zhong Li Ruoshui to just take a look.
"What's the matter? This spring has passed, could it be that you are still thinking about spring?"
Zhongli Ruoshui threw Ning Chuchu a roll of his eyes.
Suddenly, he lay on the table very lazily, and looked at the Huanhuaxi like a mirror.
"In time, his peach blossom brew will be on the market. ”
"Huo Jia...... How could the Huo family let his peach blossom brew go on the market smoothly? The Huo family's idea must be to rob him of his wine-making method!"
Zhongli Ruoshui suddenly straightened up again and looked at Ning Chuchu, "I said, if he shows off the embroidered clothes to make that brand...... Will it be easy to do it in front of the Huo family?"
Ning Chuchu looked away and muttered for a moment, not deceiving Zhongli Ruoshui.
"If the Huo family is bright and bright, the brand is good. ”
The implication of this is that if the Huo family adopts secret means, such as using people in the rivers and lakes to rob them, the brand will be useless.
Zhongli Ruoshui's gaze froze, and she glared at Ning Chuchu, "It's all your fault!"
Ning Chuchu was stunned, "Why is it still on my head?"
"Your Lijing Division, if there are a lot of spies in Guangling City, is he afraid of the Huo family!"
Ning Chuchu choked, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his voice suddenly lowered, "Don't you know some things these days?"
"I also hope that he will be able to rebuild the Gwangling Mirror Division...... He could, it just took time...... It is also necessary to win this battle against the Huo family. ”
"I said, doesn't the emperor like his wine very much?
Ning Chuchu raised his head, looked at Zhongli Ruoshui who stood up, and asked in surprise, "Where are you going?"
"Go to the palace and see the emperor!"
"I want to ask the emperor to make a decree to include Li Lang's wine in the imperial business, so that even if he gives the Huo family a hundred dares, he will not dare to do something to Li Lang!"
Ning Chuchu laughed.
"What are you laughing at?"
"You, this is the authority fan!"
“...... What do you mean by that?"
"Have you ever wondered why Old Madam Fan called you to Kyoto?"
"Have you ever wondered why Zhongli Mansion has been standing by in this matter?"
"Besides, have you ever wondered why your father agreed to Mrs. Fan's request...... Is that what happened to the second prince and you a few days ago?"
Zhongli Ruoshui was stunned for a moment, and sat down again, his beautiful brows frowning, "What do you mean...... They all want to see how Li Lang breaks the game?"
Ning Chu smiled with a smile.
"It's hard for you to imagine that there are so many things involved. ”
"The huge temple, like this big banyan tree, looks like the main trunk is just like this, but there are countless branches on it, and there are countless invisible fibrous roots below. ”
Li Chenan has nothing to do with this big banyan tree, he is an outsider. He didn't come into anyone's eyes, but since Mr. Hana brought his poems to Kyoto, his name ...... In fact, at that time, it fell into the eyes of many people in the temple. ”
Of course, now it is only in their eyes, because he is so young, even if he is good at poetry, even if his name has already spread all over Kyoto, but these are small paths. ”
"So, your grandmother summoned you to Kyoto, Zhongli Mansion was silently watching, Concubine Ji smiled lightly after listening to your mother's words, and my father only praised him after drinking his wine. ”
"His weight is not enough!"
"He needs to prove his ability, and the situation in Guangling City is the first test. ”
"If he can't even deal with a Huo family in Guangling City, if he needs external help to deal with a Huo family...... Then he is just a literati boy who can write a few good poems!"
"There are many such teenagers in Ningguo. ”
"Don't you want him to be like Prime Minister Shang? Shang Cheng has been in Kyoto for a long time, and Kyoto is turbulent, and he holds all the wind and clouds in his hands with his own strength...... He opened a coffin shop in Kyoto, and he used up 328 coffins to kill those who should be killed, and to behead those who should be killed!"
"This is ability, this is called courage!"
"Only in this way can he be worthy of Zhongli's uncle, and he is qualified to walk in the current wind and rain!"
Ning Chuchu's sprinkled words revealed the essence of these things.
Zhongli Ruoshui realized that grandma meant this.
It turned out that even his father and elder brother watched what Li Chenan did silently, and they didn't mean to lend a hand.
But that's not what she thinks about Zhongli Ruoshui!
"I never thought he would be in the picture!"
"I just thought that he would be safe, brewing wine on the bank of Peach Blossom Creek, writing poems in Peach Blossom Villa, that's all!"
"You should know him, where does he have such lofty ideals?"
"He is a casual person, otherwise how can he write that there is nothing in his chest and a bed is wide? How can he write that life is only like the wind before the wind,
Joy is also sporadic, sadness is also sporadic, all of them are words like Lianjiang Dianping?"
Ning Chuchu looked at Zhongli Ruoshui's nervous appearance, and the corners of his mouth curled: "You still care, it's messy!"
The smile on her face slowly subsided, and she took a piece of water chestnut cake from the food box, removed the paper silk and handed it to Zhongli Ruoshui.
"If it is in a peaceful and prosperous world, of course there is no problem with your thoughts. ”
"But now...... Yuwenfeng has established the Great Wilderness Country, and the battle of Mobei is about to break out, if 100,000 desolate people leave Jiuyin City...... If Xiahou Zhuo didn't hold Yanyun Pass again...... I'm afraid that the sixteen states of Yanyun will fall!"
Ning Chuchu took a deep breath, "Now that the situation is so bad, but the DPRK and China intend to send troops and have no food and grass available, and in the end, a woman is needed to solve this matter...... Don't talk about this, tomorrow evening, the prince's brother and the princess will hold a banquet in the East Palace to bid farewell to Princess Yilin, you must come. ”
"Hey, Princess Jarin is also miserable, but I really admire her. If it is reached with Mobei and Qin, it can be regarded as solving the current crisis of Ningguo...... At least give Ning Guo some respite. ”
Zhong Liruo's face was sad, he sighed, and asked, "How can there be no grain and grass available?
"It's a good harvest, but it's ...... However, when the grain was transported to Kyoto through the Yuguang Canal, half of it was robbed by the bandits of Shuangjiao Lake!"
“...... So this year's tax has increased by two percent?"
"There is no way to do this, Prime Minister Ji Cheng said, the current situation, the whole country has been a hard life for a period of time. ”
"You should write a letter to your Li Lang, his wine...... It's better to brew less, after all, the food consumption is too large, so don't become an excuse in the hands of others. ”
"I did get a piece of news. ”
"What's the news?"
Ning Chuchu smiled again, "I heard...... A few days ago, an elder of the Ichthyosaurus Club nominated your Li Lang as the helmsman of the Ichthyosaurus Club in Guangling City, and the Ichthyosaurus Club agreed!"
"You say...... Will he help me with the Ryogami Division, or will he lean towards the Ichthyosaurus?"
