After being divorced, my identity as a poet was exposed

Compared with Zhongli Garden in Shuzhou, this place is actually better, but Zhongli You rarely goes out.

In order to ensure that there were no duplicity in Dingguo Houfu, he had not visited his old friends in Kyoto so far.

He has never been to the Dukes of Cheng, Qi, Yan and Luo.

Fortunately I haven't been.

No, there are obviously some problems in Luo Mansion.

We still don’t know how serious the problem in Luo Mansion is, but from Zhong Liyou’s perspective, the problem in Luo Mansion is probably not an ordinary problem.

He was not curious enough to inquire.

The less we know about this kind of thing, the better.

There are not many people in Dingguohou Mansion.

Besides him, there was Mr. Yuan Su who came with him from Shuzhou.

The other is the youngest daughter of the third brother Zhongli Su, Zhongli Ruoshui's younger sister Zhongli Ruohua.

The back garden is very harmonious.

Zhong Liyou and Yuan Sanye were sitting in a pavilion in the snow, making tea around the stove.

In the heavy snow outside the pavilion, Zhong Liruo was practicing his sword.

This little girl didn't know what stimulation she received after she came back from Guangling City. She became more diligent than ever before!
If it were in the past, how could she practice swordsmanship in such a snowy day!

Looking at the man dancing the sword in the snow, looking at the sword energy in the air, Yuan Su stroked his long beard and smiled happily:
"The little lady is indeed a martial arts prodigy!"

"In just two months since she came back from Guangling City, she has already reached the upper level of the second realm!"

"She is only...eight years old!"

"It seems that she is very likely to become a Grand Master earlier than the old lady!"

"It's just that...the old slave has something unclear."

Zhong Liyou took a sip of tea and asked, "Why don't you understand?"

"Every time the third young lady comes back, why does the old slave always feel that the young lady is a little hostile to her?"

"They are biological sisters, this shouldn't be the case!"

Zhong Liyou put down the tea cup, stroked his short beard and smiled:
"This girl Ruo Hua... may be young but has a strong temper."

"Ruoshui became the Grand Master by chance because of the Emperor. This put Ruo Hua under great pressure, and it's normal to feel unconvinced."

Yuan Su looked at Zhong Liyou and thought that when Li Chenan and Zhongli Ruoshui came to the Dingguo Hou Mansion, the young lady had to sit in Li Chenan's arms and hang her arms around Li Chenan's neck.

That look, that expression...

Maybe I thought too much.

After all, what does an eight-year-old child know about love?

Taking another look at Zhongli Ruohua in the snow, Yuan Su asked in a low voice:
"Do you have any news, Madam?"

Zhong Liyou took a deep breath and shook his head.

"Sikong Bao and the others are searching separately, but no news has been received yet. This means that mother has not gone to the places she has been before."

"Father...hey, he is confused!"

"I used to think that my mother ran Shuzhou to guard against the late emperor, but now it seems that she was actually guarding against my father."

"She is worried that if her father gets in touch with the remnants of the Dali, he will lead the troops of the remnants of the Dali into the Ning Kingdom."

"Although the Shenwu Army is the work of my mother, my father is the direct commander of the Shenwu Army. So my mother founded the Shenwu Army in Shuzhou... to guard the country of Ning!"

"During the Kyoto Incident, Shuzhou, where my mother asked my father to go, brought the Divine Guards back to Kyoto..."

"But the Red Flame Army and the Divine Martial Army and the Divine Guards didn't even fight!"

"This is actually my mother's good intentions."

"She hopes her father understands that even if she lures the Flame Army from the remnants of Da Li into Ning Country, she won't be able to gain much benefit, but her father doesn't seem to appreciate it."

"Maybe my father is unwilling."

"That's why the mother faked her death and handed over the Peach Blossom Order to Li Chenan."

"At that time, my mother would probably have given up."

"Her fake death was firstly to deal with Fan Lihua, and secondly... I thought she wanted to find the hidden door secretly."

"I'm afraid she still hopes to eliminate the Hidden Sect and cut off her father's thoughts."

"After all, she is here for this country and her family!"

Yuan Su let out a long sigh. He admired the old lady so much that he fell to the ground.

But no one expected that the beautiful love story that spread all over the world would eventually turn out differently. "Second Young Master, don't worry. With the old lady's ability, I think she can find the master."

"With the love between the old lady and the master... maybe we can save it."

"The emperor has not said a word about this matter so far, which is what he has left."

Zhong Liyou looked at the falling snow and thought that his mother also had a stubborn character.

If my father doesn't look back...

Mother will definitely draw the sword!

At this moment, Zhongli Ruohua, who was practicing his sword, suddenly stopped.

A maid came in with someone.

He is Wen Boiyu!

Wen Boyu rarely comes to Dingguohou Mansion.

But he must come today!

Zhong Liyou and Yuan Su had already stood up. They walked out of the pavilion and walked into the corridor to greet Wen Boyu.

After all, he is the chief assistant of the Ning Kingdom and Li Chenan's most trusted minister.

The two of them bowed their hands and Zhong Liyou said happily:

"How come Mr. Wen has no time to come to my humble residence today?"

Wen Boyu returned the gift and said with a smile:

"I don't go to the Three Treasures Hall if I have anything to do. I'm here today. I really have something to do."

Zhong Liyou's heart skipped a beat, Dingguo Hou Mansion controlled military power!
Wen Boyu came here for something, and it must be related to war.

Could it be that there is a war on the border?
"Master Wen, please!"

Zhong Liyou welcomed Wen Boyu to the pavilion, poured a cup of tea with his own hands and handed it over.

Wen Zhuiyu held the tea cup and said:
"Hexi Prefecture in the Northern Desert suffered a heavy snowstorm, and some people are deceiving people and taking the opportunity to act like a monster."

"The banner is that the emperor's position was unfair, and God resents him!"

"This group of people has money, food, and organization. They call themselves the Taiping Sect. They claim that anyone who joins the Taiping Sect can receive three catties of food and thirty coins in money."

"Anyone who is loyal to the Taiping Religion can visit the leader and be baptized and blessed by the leader, free from all diseases!"

"Shangdao Taiwan's secret letter to me said that this matter is not trivial."

"Behind it, I'm afraid there is the shadow of Daqimen."

"Today, the Taiping Sect has recruited 30,000 followers, and this number is still increasing, and it is becoming more and more intense."

"He sent government soldiers to suppress it, but they were ambushed by an army."

"It's the army!"

"What we are fighting is the Taiping Sect's big yellow Tai Chi flag."

"This army has tens of thousands of people, all of whom are cavalry. They all wear standard armor, and their weapons are also military swords and crossbows..."

"The soldiers suffered a disastrous defeat."

"Yong'an City, the capital of Hexi Prefecture, has fallen into the hands of the Taiping Sect!"

Zhong Liyou was shocked and heard Wen Boiyu say again:
"This matter is not trivial. Your Majesty has learned about it from the Imperial City Department and sent someone back quickly to tell me how to handle it."

"...What does Zhongli Mansion need to do?"

"This is a letter from the Emperor to you!"

Wen Boyu took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Zhong Liyou.

Zhong Liyou took it and took it out to take a look...

"Second uncle, the Shuzhou Divine Guards came out of Jianmen and entered Guanzhong to garrison Jingning County."

Just such a line of words, with Li Chenan's private seal stamped underneath.

Zhong Liyou was shocked:

"Master Wen, shouldn't the Divine Guards go to Hexi Prefecture to destroy the Taiping Sect?"

"The emperor's letter to me said that Shuzhou is too far away, and the task of annihilating the Taiping Religion should be left to the army behind the city."

Yuan Su was startled, "What kind of army is the army behind the city?"

"The army established by the emperor when he was in Youdu County only needs more than ten days to march from Youdu County to Hexi Prefecture."

"The reason why the Divine Guards are stationed in Jingning County is to prevent the Taiping Cult from jumping over the wall and entering Jiangnan through Jingning County!" (End of this chapter)
