Li Chenan didn't know the significance of Li Wenhou asking him to meet Changsun Jinghong.
He heard Shang Di talk about Changsun Jinghong.
He knew that Changsun Jinghong seemed to have a good relationship with his grandfather. After all, they were both imperial masters, and they were just civil and military.
Then the current emperor ascended the throne, and his grandfather became the Taiwei of the current dynasty, and the eldest grandson Jinghong also took charge of the famous Imperial City Division of Ning Kingdom.
Grandpa has already left Hexi, but Jinghong, the eldest grandson of the Imperial City Division, is still alive and well.
However, Shang Di said that Changsun Jinghong seemed to have become a different person after he got on the train and waited for Lu Zhanxiao to be murdered twenty years ago.
He rarely left that gloomy place in the Imperial City Division, and even lived in that dark building!
On that day in Jiuyulou, Shang Di had recommended him to meet Changsun Jinghong, but he was delayed by what happened later. In the past few days, he and Zhongli Ruoshui had discussed the Mid-Autumn Festival Cultural Conference and returned to Guangling City. , I no longer thought about going to Shang Di to meet Sun Jinghong.
After all, it is the feeling of grandparents.
Changsun Jinghong is also very old, and he probably doesn't have much energy to worry about these things of his own.
Li Chenan took a sip of tea, looked at Li Wenhou, and did not ask why he wanted to see Chang Sun Jinghong, but asked:
"Are you and Ji Tai... enemies or friends?"
"I can't say friend or foe. He is the prime minister, in charge of six ministries, and is my superior officer."
Li Wenhou probably misunderstood the meaning of Li Chenan's question. He added: "Although I am the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, in your case, even if I go to Jitai, it will not help!"
"As I said before, you're blocking their way!"
"If you just quit, announce to the world that you have nothing to do with Zhongli Ruoshui, leave Huaxi Villa, and go straight back to Guangling City. I think many people will breathe a sigh of relief. They will not look at you again. , and you... can also spend this life safely in Guangling City!"
"Actually, Mrs. Fan has not let you go to Dingguo Hou's Mansion so far. I think... there may be these reasons for this."
"Although the Dingguo Hou Mansion is powerful, it can't keep up with the former Shangche Hou Mansion."
After Li Wenhou said these words, he kept looking at Li Chenan.
He hoped that Li Chenan could understand the current situation and retreat wisely to protect himself!
He invited Li Chenan to come to his house. This was not his original intention, but was entrusted by others!
The person entrusted to me is not Prime Minister Ji, the second prince, or Concubine Ji.
She is the concubine Li who lives in the harem and likes to grow flowers and plants!
Concubine Li came from the palace of the Duke of Yan.
Logically speaking, Li Chenan's current identity is very subtle, and many people can make different stories about him.
For example, if he died in the hands of the Fish and Dragon Society, the apparent peace between the Dingguo Hou Mansion and the Prime Minister Mansion would most likely be broken.
Kyoto will fall into chaos.
But the chaotic Kyoto is another rare opportunity for the Prime Minister!
For another example, if Li Chenan lost to the talents of the Yue Kingdom at the Mid-Autumn Festival Cultural Festival, he was the most talented person in the Ning Kingdom, but he made the emperor lose face in front of the Yue people. If the emperor ordered his head to be chopped off, , Dingguo Hou Mansion is afraid that this will give rise to dissatisfaction.
This is also a great good thing for other forces.
Li Wenhou certainly thought that Concubine Li had good intentions.
Because Concubine Li said that Ningguo is already in chaos now. If Kyoto is in chaos again... I am afraid that the country will be destroyed.
Li Chenan is a key chess piece.
As long as he jumps out of the chessboard, of course the chess game will not end there, but the two sides will always relax a little, leaving more time for Ning Guo.
Now that the emperor has returned to the palace, he doesn't want to see these troublesome things.
There are so many women in the world, why would Li Chenan hang himself on a tree like Zhongli Ruoshui?
So, Li Wenhou reluctantly made an appointment with Li Chenan.
Now that what should be said has been made clear, it is now Li Chenan's turn to make a decision.
If Li Chenan was still the fool he once was, Li Wenhou would still be a little worried, but now it seems that Li Chenan has indeed become shrewd.
It will be easier to talk to smart people, because smart people will weigh the pros and cons and know the trade-offs!
The choice is very simple. In Li Wenhou's view, any smart person will make the right choice.
Because Li Chenan is not a big shot, he can't shake the huge prime minister's office, let alone control all the forces in Kyoto.
He has no choice but to retreat!
Only by taking a step back can the sky be brighter!
However, Li Chenan smiled slightly at this moment.
He stood up, faced Li Wenhou's nervous gaze, and said calmly: "I just found someone in this world who I like and who also likes me!"
"I just want to live an ordinary life with the person I like!"
"This is too complicated for my liking."
"Having said all that, I'm actually very hungry, but you didn't leave me for lunch... Farewell!"
Under Li Wenhou's shocked, disappointed and puzzled gaze, Li Chenan walked out of the study with his hands behind his back and his head held high.
He walked forward along the corridor, but he was thinking about something in his mind.
It seems that these bad things cannot be avoided. Since they cannot be avoided, they must be faced.
You can't count on anyone, including Dingguo Houfu.
Go back to Huaxi Villa!
Get the explosives out!
We can't make guns for the time being, but I'm afraid it's still possible to get some hands, mines, and bombs!
If nothing else, tie up a bomb or a medicine bag and risk your life... I have been a human being in two lifetimes, who is afraid of whom? !
He just walked like this, walking... walking... and suddenly realized that he seemed to have lost his way.
This Shangshu Mansion is not big, but the location I am in now is a bit unfamiliar. I have never been here before when I came here.
He stood in a courtyard.
Looking around, I saw a rather tall rockery in the yard. There were many trees planted around the yard, mostly sweet-scented osmanthus trees.
At this moment, a piano sound suddenly sounded from behind the rockery, and then melodious singing came.
Li Chenan listened carefully and immediately became happy.
That was a woman's voice, and she was singing the song "Tian Jing Sha" she wrote!
I have to ask for directions.
So he walked around the rockery and saw a pavilion in the laurel forest in the corner.
There is a woman in the pavilion who is playing the piano and singing attentively.
The woman was facing him, but she was so focused that she didn't notice his intrusion.
When Li Chenan walked to the pavilion, the woman suddenly closed her mouth and raised her head, and then... was shocked!
Her hand left the strings and covered her mouth, her eyes widened. After a moment, she let go and asked, "Who are you?"
Li Chenan grinned: "I am Li Chenan, who are you?"
Li Rui was stunned again, "You, are you Li Chenan? Guangling Li Chenan?"
"Exactly!"
Li Rui was overjoyed, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"Cousin! Are you really my cousin Li Chenan? I am Li Rui. Please sit down quickly. Father invited you here? I happen to not know much about the song "Tian Jing Sha". I wanted to go to Huaxi Villa to find you. But, my father doesn’t allow it, so it’s great that you’re here!”
Li Chenan was stunned.
He never expected that he would break into his cousin's boudoir!
He just wants to go back to Huaxi Courtyard to do big things now, so there is no point in wasting time here.
He turned around and left, turning his back to Li Rui and waving his hands: "My cousin is not available, and it would be inappropriate to reschedule. Goodbye!"
