Li Chenan's eloquent words shocked Shang Di, and also made Wu Xichen look at him with admiration.

His words were beyond their understanding, and they had the greatest impact on Shang Di in particular.

Shang Di was originally a learned man. He resigned from his job in Kyoto and came here because of the reason Fan Taohua married Zhong Lipo, and also because he couldn't stand the darkness in the officialdom.

But he was invited by Mr. Changsun to join the Imperial City Division. He believed that what the Imperial City Division did was a good deed and that he was upholding justice for the people of the world!

The Imperial City Secretary controlled the indiscriminate killing of innocent people in the Jianghu with one hand, and controlled the corruption and perversion of the law by officials from all over the imperial court.

Over the years, the Imperial City Division has set rules for people in the world, and it has also become a sword hanging over the heads of those officials.

He thought this was a restraint on evil, but Li Chenan said that this was actually another kind of evil!

Because no one can supervise the Imperial City Division.

There are tens of thousands of spies under the Imperial City Division, and those spies are all human beings. Human beings have selfish motives, desires, and will be greedy for profit, and they will collude with certain people.

Therefore, in Li Chenan's view, a normal country should not have such an institution.

But when Shang Di asked how to solve this problem, Li Chenan looked at the sunset outside the window.

"Brother, your tea is very good, and the orchids outside are also very fragrant."

"I... am just a businessman, wearing the tiger skin of the Fish and Dragon Society, just to make a little money in peace."

"Actually... the existence of the Imperial City Division is also good. After all, there are some good people like you in it, and there are some evil people who will be punished by you."

"As for the other things, I, as a commoner, have never thought about them at all. Thinking about those things makes me suffer from headaches. It doesn't help. It just adds trouble to myself!"

"Let me know when you go to Kyoto and help me bring some wine to Zhongli Ruoshui."

Then Li Chenan said goodbye, and Shang Di sent them to the pier, and finally asked: "Maybe we can go with them on this trip to Kyoto?"

Li Chenan pondered for a moment and nodded.

…

…

"What are you doing in Kyoto?"

Wu Xichen asked.

"Go and see Ruoshui."

"Then what will this ichthyosaur do?"

"I think it's more important to see Zhongli Ruoshui. As for the Fish and Dragon Club, let's see how Ye Po does."

"……All right."

"You going with me?"

Wu Xichen jumped on the carriage, looked at the sunset, and shook his head.

"The day you go to Kyoto will be the day you go to Yue as a teacher."

"Didn't you say three months from now?"

"Go early, come back early!"

"……good!"

"Really going to Huo Mansion for a banquet?"

"Really, if you want to be a good villain, you have to get along with the villains first!"

…

…

Zhongli Mansion.

When the lanterns first come on.

Zhong Lizu was sitting in the study, with the light on, reading a letter in his hand.

Zhongli Qiuyang stood in front of him respectfully, waiting until Zhongli Su took the letter into his arms.

Zhong Lisu then raised his head, with a smile on his majestic face, "Sit down, make tea... No, serve peach blossom stuffing!"

Zhongli Qiuyang pursed his lips and went to get a pot of wine and two glass cups.

He poured two glasses of wine, handed one to his father, and asked: "That boy is so high-profile, as if he is afraid that others will not know that he is the helmsman of the Fish and Dragon Society... Will this bring him trouble?"

Zhong Lisu took a sip of wine and smacked his mouth, "Trouble? If he and Shang Di didn't know each other, my father thought there would be some trouble, but the old man Shang Di called him to Peach Blossom Island.

Then at least he won't have any trouble in the short term."

"...Father, you mean that this is actually a good thing?"

Zhong Lisu took another sip of wine and put down the wine bowl, "Murong He is also a disciple of Songshan Sword Academy, and he is also your grandma's nephew."

"Murong He came down from the mountain to become a guest elder of the Fish and Dragon Society. This was the recommendation of the Duke of Qi, but behind it was the intention of Duke Cheng..."

"The last time Cheng Guogong came to our Zhongli Mansion, he talked about many things in Kyoto."

"Now the Ning Kingdom is in danger, but the emperor...the emperor has ignored the government affairs for many years because he only pursues the truth."

Zhong Lizu stood up, walked a few steps in the study room with his hands behind his back, came to the window, and looked out the window.

"Your grandma has mentioned it in several letters, so... our Zhongli Mansion will start to set up in Shuzhou."

"This is just a precaution. After all, Prime Minister Ji is becoming more and more powerful and bold!"

"To go off the rails, Murong He visited your grandma when he went to Kyoto and mentioned Li Chenan, so... you can think that Li Chenan became the helmsman of the Fish and Dragon Society, which also has your grandma's intention."

Zhongli Qiuyang was startled, "But that boy also hides his identity as the embroidery envoy of Lijing Division! What will the fourth princess think of it? What will His Highness think of it if he knows about it?"

Zhong Lisu grinned, "The smart thing about that kid is that he didn't reveal his identity as an embroiderer!"

"As for what the fourth princess and the prince think...you don't have to think so much about things in Kyoto."

Zhongli Qiuyang pondered for a moment, and he began to understand the reason.

From this point of view, in the game with Prime Minister Ji in the temple, at least one son fell on Li Chenan of Guangling City.

Then I remembered that my father once said that because of Hua Manting's publicity in Kyoto, that boy's name was even louder in Kyoto than in Guangling City.

Prime Minister Ji must have heard of his name.

When Prime Minister Ji thought about it, he probably also hoped that the Yulong Society could be more civilized and less murderous, so he agreed to let Li Chenan be the helmsman of the Guangling sub-rudder.

Or maybe...the ambiguous thing between Sanmei and Li Chenan also reached Prime Minister Ji's ears.

His move may also be to use Li Chenan to reconcile with Zhongli Mansion, or... to recruit Li Chenan to attack Zhongli Mansion!

"Don't worry too much about Li Chen'an, it's your business!"

Zhonglisu turned around and looked at Zhongli Qiuyang.

"You are already eighteen. Duke Cheng Guogong has sent another letter. Your grandma likes the princess of the Cheng family very much. You will go to Kyoto in a few days and this matter must be settled!"

When Zhongli Qiuyang heard this, a look of fear suddenly appeared on his face.

He swallowed and whispered with some difficulty: "Father, can the child refuse this marriage?"

"Of course not!"

"As a father, I'm confused. Cheng Yiren is also one of the four flowers in Kyoto. During those days when you were in Kyoto, weren't you and she always very good?"

"You and her were engaged in marriage back then. You two can be considered childhood sweethearts. You don't even look at yourself in the mirror. How lucky you are to be able to marry Princess Cheng!"

Zhongli Qiuyang lowered his head, thinking that Cheng Yiren was indeed one of the four flowers in Kyoto, but she was covered in thorns!

Her appearance deceived too many people!

Not only is she not as weak as Xiaoniaoyiren, but she is too violent!

Cheng Yiren’s strength value is too high!

Even taller than her brother Cheng Zhe!

One hand can easily knock him down, Zhongli Qiuyang.

You can even swing it around!

Those unforgettable pasts, those bruises and wounds, are still his nightmare for Zhongli Qiuyang!

In these years, he would rather stay in Guangling City and serve as a small judicial officer than go to Kyoto. This is the most critical reason!

"...If I agree to take over the Guangling Navy, does that mean I won't go to Kyoto?"

Zhong Lizu laughed, "You said that yourself!"

He took out a piece of paper from his arms and placed it in front of Zhongli Qiuyang:

"The Ministry of War appoints a document, and you can take office tomorrow!"
