"The visitor is a guest. Since he doesn't know that you are the magistrate of this county, please be patient. I don't want you to die!"

Su Yian whispered to Liu Xiayin in an extremely serious voice.

Liu Xiayin chuckled, picked up the wine jar, poured himself another bowl of wine, and whispered back:

"It's a shame if I didn't know there was such a person!"

Su Yian had no way to stop him, and was very worried. With a glance from the corner of his eye, he saw that Li Chenan and his party had arrived in front of the fence.

Li Chenan looked at the two people drinking in the yard, grinned, and asked:

"May I ask, who is Mr. Su Yi Ansu?"

Su Yian stood up and walked towards the low fence, "I am the one who dares to ask you, sir. Who is he?"

"Hello, Mr. Su, I'm Li Chenan!"

I’m Li Chenan!

Even though Su Yian already knew that it was Li Chenan who was coming, Su Yian still felt nervous when he heard Li Chenan say from his own words that he was Li Chenan.

After all, he is the regent of Ningguo!

Sure enough he came!

In the past few days, Su Yi'an's originally calm heart has been rippled by Hua Manting's words.

Although Ningguo is still the same Ningguo that has existed for three hundred years, since the incident in Kyoto last year, according to Hua Manting, this Ningguo is no longer the decadent Ningguo.

Although it is still called Ningguo, it is already a new country.

It's just that it was born on the decaying ruins of the past, it has just sprouted, and the situation it faces is still very serious.

How to make it grow vigorously?

How to protect it from the destruction of the old forces?

How to make it grow more upright, straight and stalwart?

This requires a large number of like-minded people to take care of it!

From Hua Manting's words, he already knew that many of his old friends had returned to the court.

They were favored by the regent.

They are protecting the healthy growth of this seedling.

If you say you are not moved, this is obviously false.

As a knowledgeable scholar and a scholar with a world-wide mind, if I could grow up with this seedling, if I could witness it grow into a towering tree with my own eyes...

What an honor and pride that is!

But Liu Xiayin's words just now extinguished the fire that was already rising in his heart!

If the regent is in such a bad state, the tree... may grow into the crooked-necked tree in the Imperial City.

Now Li Chenan came as promised and stood in front of him alive.

This young man was gentle and elegant, had a smile on his face, spoke sincerely, and was extremely polite... It seemed that he was far from the little lecher Liu Xiayin talked about.

You have to verify it yourself!

At this moment, Su Yian thought a lot.

He bowed and said, neither humble nor overbearing: "It turns out that the regent has arrived, please!"

He opened the fence door, stretched out his hand, and turned to look at Liu Xiayin sitting at the table.

Well, the guy seems really desperate.

As the magistrate of this county, the regent came, but he still didn't get up!

He didn't even take a second look!

He is drinking.

Eat braised pig ears.

He didn't seem to hear the conversation, and didn't seem to know that a very expensive guest was coming to his door.

Li Chenan came with Xiao Baozi, Amu, and Wang Zhenghaoxuan.

Xiao Wu didn't come, he wanted to prepare the antidote for confusion.

Ning Chuchu and the others didn't come either.

They were going to buy some supplies needed for their next journey.

The four of them walked into the small courtyard.

Su Yian closed the fence door and looked at the girl following Li Chenan.

I thought that girl must be Xi Wei's daughter.

That's the little vixen Liu Xiayin talked about who seduced the regent by not adhering to women's rules.

He calmly led Li Chenan and others to the stone table. He did not introduce Liu Xiayin, but said:

"It is an honor for me to have the regent come to my humble residence."

"It's just that the humble abode is really cold, and the Regent is rich in wealth... If the Regent doesn't mind it, how about sitting down and having a drink together?"

Li Chenan looked at the small yard through the light.

Really poor.

He lifted up his clothes and sat down nonchalantly.

Xiao Baozi didn't pay much attention to etiquette, so she sat next to Li Chenan without being invited.

On the other hand, Wang Zhenghaoxuan and Amu stood on both sides behind Li Chenan.

Liu Xiayin still didn't raise his head, still drinking his wine.

Li Chenan glanced at him. The light was quite dim, and Liu Xiayin's official robe was too shabby. Li Chenan could not identify him, but he vaguely felt that he had seen him before.

He didn't care.

The purpose of his coming here was to take a look at Su Yian.

Su Yian went to the room and took two sets of bowls and chopsticks and placed them in front of Li Chenan and Xiao Baozi.

He poured two bowls of wine for the two of them and said:

"Originally, I don't even have any wine in this humble abode. This wine was brought by Brother Liu... I heard that Huapingchun, brewed by the regent himself, is the holy product of wine. This country wine... If the regent doesn't like it, I don't like it either.

There’s no good wine to entertain.”

There was no modesty or politeness in Su Yian's words.

Li Chenan smelled the wine and realized that it was indeed the poorest quality wine. People who were used to drinking Huapingchun would not despise this wine at all.

Of course he doesn't like it either.

He did not aggravate his taste buds for the so-called polite corporal.

What's more, he still doesn't know if this Su Yian is the person he needs.

"I've already had dinner at Yuelai Inn!"

"I came here because before I left Beijing, Wen Boyu told me that if I passed by Jingning County, I would like to see if you are still teaching here."

"The name of your school is very good!"

Su Yian was startled and asked: "Where does the regent think it is?"

"Three flavors!"

"Sanwei Bookstore...it would be even more perfect if there was a herb garden next door."

These words immediately confused Su Yian, and even Liu Xiayin looked up at Li Chenan at this moment.

Of course Li Chenan did not explain, he smiled and said:

"The so-called three flavors, I don't know what Mr. means about these three flavors. I do have my own opinions on these three flavors."

Su Yian suddenly became interested, and Li Chenan's unhappiness for not drinking was temporarily put aside.

"Then please tell me, Prince Regent, how you understand these three flavors?"

Li Chenan lifted his clothes and said without hesitation:

"First, reading the classics tastes like rice, reading history tastes like delicious food, and reading hundreds of schools of thought tastes like glutinous rice."

"Secondly, it means living in poverty and enjoying the good life. Holding a book in your hand, you will feel the warmth of cloth, the fragrance of vegetable roots, and the long-lasting taste of poetry and books."

"I also have a third view. The so-called three flavors, if they are called samadhi, are the words of Buddhism."

"It talks about the three realms of reciting Buddhist scriptures and understanding the meaning of the scriptures."

"The first is 'concentration', the second is 'right feeling', and the third is 'equal holding'!"

"It means that when reading and writing, one must be mentally stable and focused, use a correct attitude to understand the profound meaning of the book, and also study patiently and maintain a consistent belief."
