Guangling City is full of excitement because of the peach blossoms.

There is no wind on the banks of Huanhua Creek in Jade Capital, Kyoto.

The sun is a bit strong.

But the banyan trees by the Huanhua Stream cover the sky and the sun, giving this place a sense of coolness.

Under the banyan tree, in that pavilion, Zhongli Ruoshui and the fourth princess Ning Chuchu were sitting opposite each other.

There was a box of Yunjinji pastries on the table, all of which were the ones that Zhongli Ruoshui liked. Ning Chuchu originally thought that Zhongli Ruoshui would happily eat them without any image, but she didn't expect that Zhongli Ruoshui only glanced at them.

"What? Spring has passed, are you still missing spring?"

Zhongli Ruoshui gave Ning Chuchu a roll of his eyes.

Suddenly he lay down on the table lazily and looked at Huanhua Creek like a mirror.

"Based on the time, his peach blossom wine should be on the market."

"The Huo family... How can the Huo family make his peach blossom wine go on the market smoothly? The Huo family's intention must be to steal his method of making wine!"

Zhongli Ruoshui suddenly straightened up again and looked at Ning Chuchu, "I said, if he shows the brand of Embroidered Clothes Master... will it be easy to use in front of the Huo family?"

Ning Chuchu looked away and pondered for a moment, not trying to deceive Zhongli Ruoshui.

"If the Huo family is upright, then that brand will work."

The implication is that if the Huo family adopts secret methods, such as using people from the Jianghu to rob it, the brand will be useless.

Zhongli Ruoshui's eyes narrowed, and she glared at Ning Chuchu, "It's all your fault!"

Ning Chuchu was startled, "Why are you still blaming me?"

"Your Lijing Division, if there are many spies in Guangling City, is he afraid of the Huo family?"

Ning Chuchu choked, swallowed, and her voice suddenly dropped, "Don't you know some things these days?"

"I also hope that he can rebuild the Guangling Mirror Division... He could have done it, but he just needed time... and he also needed to win the battle against the Huo family."

"I said, doesn't the Emperor like his wine very much? Let's go!"

Ning Chuchu raised her head, looked at Zhongli Ruoshui who had 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 issue a decree to include Li Lang's wine in the imperial business. In this way, even if the Huo family has a hundred courages, he will not dare to do anything to Li Lang!"

Ning Chuchu laughed.

"why are you laughing?"

"You, you are a fan of the authorities!"

"...How do you say this?"

"Have you ever wondered why Mrs. Fan called you to Kyoto?"

"Have you ever wondered why the Zhongli Mansion has been standing idly by on this matter?"

"Also, have you ever thought about why my father agreed to Mrs. Fan's request... what happened to the Second Prince and you a few days ago?"

Zhongli Ruoshui was startled, then sat down again, his beautiful brows furrowed, "You mean... they all want to see how Li Lang breaks the situation?"

Ning Chuchu smiled sweetly.

"You can't imagine how many things are involved in this court."

"Such a large temple is just like this big banyan tree. It looks like there is only one trunk, but there are countless branches on the top and 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 originally, but since Mr. Hua brought his poems to Kyoto, his name... actually fell into the world at that time.

In the eyes of many caring people in the temple."

"Of course, now he is just in their eyes, because he is too young. Even if he is good at poetry, even if his name of Hua Pingchun has already spread throughout Kyoto, these are just rumors."

"So, your grandma summoned you to Kyoto. Zhongli Mansion watched silently. Concubine Ji smiled lightly after listening to your mother's words. Father only praised you after drinking his wine."

"He's not big 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, and if he needs external help to deal with a Huo family... then he is just a young scholar who can write a few good poems!"

"There are many young men like this in Ningguo."

"Don't you hope that he will be like Prime Minister Shang? Prime Minister Shang entered Kyoto that year, and the capital was turbulent. He held all the storms in his hands with one hand... He opened a coffin shop in Kyoto, and he deserved to be killed.

, the beheading that should be done took three hundred and twenty-eight coffins!"

"This is ability, this is courage!"

"Only in this way can he be worthy of being the uncle of Zhongli Mansion, and can he be qualified to stroll around in the current wind and rain!"

Ning Chuchu's eloquent words revealed the essence of these things.

Only then did Zhongli Ruoshui realize that grandma had this intention.

It turned out that even his father and brother were silently watching what Li Chenan did and had no intention of lending a helping hand.

But this is not what Zhongli Ruoshui thought!

"I never thought he would be a general or a general!"

"I just want him to be safe and sound, brewing wine by the Peach Blossom Stream, and writing poems at Peach Blossom Villa, that's all!"

"You should know him well. How could he have such lofty ideals?"

"He is just a casual person. Otherwise, how could he write that he has nothing in mind and a wide bed? How could he write that life is just like a catkins before the wind,

There are sporadic joys and sporadic sorrows, and they all have words like Lian Jiang Dian Dian Ping?"

Ning Chuchu looked at Zhongli Ruoshui's nervous expression and raised the corner of her mouth: "You are still confused if you care!"

The smile on her face gradually faded, she took a piece of water chestnut cake from the food box, removed the paper and handed it to Zhong Li Ruoshui.

"If it were a peaceful and prosperous time, of course there would be no problem with your idea."

"But now... Yuwenfeng has established the Great Wilderness Kingdom, and the Battle of Mobei is imminent. If a hundred thousand deserters leave Jiuyin City...if Xiahou Zhuo never defends Yanyunguan... I am afraid that the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun

It will fall like this!”

Ning Chuchu took a deep breath, "Now the situation is so bad, but the DPRK wants to send troops without food and grass. In the end, a woman has to solve the problem... Let's not talk about this. The prince's brother and the prince's concubine will be here tomorrow night.

There will be a banquet in the East Palace to bid farewell to Princess Su Lin, you must come."

"Hey, Princess Xilin has a hard life, but I really admire her. If the marriage with Mobei is achieved, it can be regarded as solving the current crisis in Ningguo... At least it will give Ningguo some breathing space."

Zhong Liruo looked sad, sighed and asked: "How can there be no food and grass available? Wasn't there a good harvest in the south of the Yangtze River last year?"

"It was a good harvest, but...but when the grain was transported to Kyoto through the Yuguangdao Canal, half of it was robbed by water bandits from Shuangjiao Lake!"

“…So this year’s taxes have increased by another 20%?”

"There is no way around this, Prime Minister Ji said. The current situation has made the whole country have a hard time for a period of time."

"You should write a letter to your Li Lang. His wine...it's better to brew less. After all, it consumes too much food. Don't let it become an excuse in the hands of others."

"Also, I got some news."

"What news?"

Ning Chuchu smiled again, "I heard... a few days ago, an elder from the Fish and Dragon Club nominated your Li Lang to be the helmsman of the Guangling City Fish and Dragon Club, and the Fish and Dragon Club agreed!"

"Tell me...will he help me, Rei Jingsi? Or will he lean towards the Ichthyosaurus Society?"
