Imperial study room.

Li Chenan sat opposite them in the surprised eyes of Nian Chengfeng and Wen Zhuoyu.

He ignored the eyes of the two of them falling on his face with countless doubts, calmly took the fire and lit the tea stove:

"Don't ask, I won't tell you that this was beaten up!"

He raised his head, looked at Wen Zhuoyu, and grinned: "Are you Mr. Zhuoyu?"

"It's...but, I guess you were beaten by a woman!"

Li Chenan raised his eyebrows, "This is not difficult to guess!"

"Why did that Miss Xiao beat you up? Is this hard to guess?"

"You really can't guess this!"

"Then I won't guess, I'll talk about the serious matter."

"We waited for a night and we hadn't been sleeping for a night in the broken place in Huamanting. It was all about you."

"They also told me in detail about your idea of ​​governing the country. I agree with some of your views, such as paying attention to industry and commerce, punishing corrupt officials, breaking down business barriers between various places, etc.."

"But I have a question."

Li Chenan raised his hand: "Please speak!"

"It depends on people's work, and to achieve things, it depends on people after all."

"People have different styles, and they are different. When too many officials first left the academy and entered the officialdom, they were full of enthusiasm for serving the country and the people."

"But after these people became officials, most of them would forget their original intentions in two or three years."

"They no longer care about the sufferings of the people under their rule, but about the preferences of their superiors."

"They began to collect wealth and ointment from the people and seek greater official positions by taking the pleasure of their superiors."

"This is not just Ningguo, but looking at the world and thousands of years of history, it's all!"

"So there is a saying that dynasty has only been three hundred years."

"What I want to ask you is... what is the solution to this problem?"

Li Chenan twisted a handful of tea and put it into the teapot. He pondered for a moment, raised his eyes, and said: "This is the first thing I urgently need to do!"

"What's the matter?"

"legislation!"

Wen Zhuoyu frowned: "What method?"

"The Supreme Constitution above imperial power!"

“…”

Li Chen'an talked about tea around the stove. His words completely subverted the two's perception and made them dumbfounded.

...

...

From early morning to dusk, the snow still showed no sign of stopping.

In the backyard of Tai Academy, the flowers are full of flowers in the courtyard, and I feel uncomfortable today.

Even though he hadn't been asleep all night last night, he was not tired at all.

He walked back and forth in the room, and there was no more plan to go after the chess game in his mind.

At this time, there was no world in his heart.

Only the girl riding a little donkey.

And the hands holding the girl!

Those hands are extremely natural!

That girl is also very natural!

Hua Manting lowered her head, raised her steps, walked out of the room, and stood in the heavy snow at dusk.

Back then, Xiao Mantou was here, and it was also natural in the heavy snow of the cold winter.

Natural wine cooking.

Drink with yourself naturally.

Leave naturally.

Then that happened naturally.

That year I was forty-five.

She is twenty-one.

Now Li Chenan is seventeen and that girl is twenty.

She is Xiao Mantou's daughter, and she is her own daughter.

In the past twenty years, Xiao Mantou has never been to Kyoto again, and she has never even left Wanxizhai again!

I have never been to Wanxizhai, nor have I even sent anyone to Wanxizhai.

It's just because my identity cannot be exposed.

It cannot bring them any danger.

However, twenty years later, my daughter came to Kyoto.

She is as beautiful as her mother.

But her personality seems to be more stubborn than her mother.

Now she obviously fell in love with Li Chenan...Li Chenan must ascend the throne as emperor!

He is the emperor, and his daughter must be the queen!

Hua Manting's eyes slowly narrowed, but Zhongli Ruoshui was in front of his daughter. Li Chenan was deeply in love with Zhongli Ruoshui, and even refused to wear the crown for Zhongli Ruoshui.

Then, Zhongli Ruoshui must die!

He raised his head and looked up at the sky.

Heavy snow fell on his face, and at this moment, he made up his mind.

"Peach Blossom, I'm sorry!"

At this moment, the fence door in the courtyard suddenly opened.

Flowers gathered in their eyes and saw a girl wearing a blue cloth cotton jacket riding a pitch-black donkey walking in.

Xiao Baozi jumped off the donkey's back and stood in front of Hua Manting, with his mouth curled up, "Welcome the snow?"

Hua Manting's face, which was just cold and frosty, was now rippling like the spring breeze, "That's true, not."

Xiao Baozi's slender neck tilted, "The great scholars of knowledge speak differently, and I can't understand what I come from here."

Flowers in the courtyard smile kindly:

“It’s cold outside, sit inside!”

"good!"

Xiao Baozi looked at the simple courtyard, followed Hua Manting into the cabin, sat in front of Hua Manting, and said:

"I heard that you and Chen'an are friends who are forgot about age. You and Chen'an are brothers. Let's not be too disagreeable. I'll call you brother, how about it?"

Hua Manting's hand holding the teapot suddenly stopped in the air.

"……good."

"Brother," Xiao Baozi leaned over, "I should have come to find you for a long time, but later... I felt a little conflicted, so I couldn't make up my mind, so I came a little late."

Hua Manting placed the teapot on the tea stove and asked, "What are the contradictions?"

"That's right, I'm here to Kyoto, not to find my own biological parents."

"It was my disciples from Wanxizhai who wrote to me that they had found a good boss, your brother Li Chen'an."

"So I decided to come out for a walk, what exactly is Li Chen'an? Don't deceive my disciples."

"He and I met on Shilipo, and we walked together to Shuangjiao Mountain. After that, we arrived in Kyoto."

"Yan Jidao said that my master Xiao Mantou was also a legendary existence in Kyoto back then... I now roughly understand what he meant... He said that if you want to understand the master's story, I will find you."

"Brother, I don't really care about my mother's story. I'm just wondering, do you know Xi Wei?"

"After all, the matter between her and Xi Wei should be very secretive. If you know their story, you should know Xi Wei!"

Hua Manting pondered for three breaths and nodded.

Xiao Baozi asked again: "He...is he really a bad person?"

Anyway, it's his own father after all.
To be continued...
