Chapter 513 The Last Supper

Li Chenan's casual words shocked Xiahou Zhuo who was standing behind him——

Ning Ren's knife should never be pointed at Ning Ren!

Ning Ren's knife is used to protect Ning Ren!
But he came to kill him with a knife...

How much of what he said just now was true or false?

If His Royal Highness was here, what would he do?

What will Li Chenan do next?

Xia Houzhuo raised his head and looked at Li Chenan's back standing straight. Although his internal strength was blocked by Miss Xiao, and the dagger on his body was taken away by the boy named Amu, but at such a close distance, he believed that he could punch him with all his strength. , even if it doesn't kill him, it's enough for him to drink a pot.

He didn't punch.

He wanted to see what Li Chenan would do next.

Li Chen'an didn't know that Xia Houzhuo, who had no internal strength, was still a dangerous existence.

Under Zhou Zheng's order, the soldiers of Xuanjia Battalion put away their long swords and stood on both sides.

Li Chenan walked forward and stood in front of an old man opposite.

The old man looked up, he had never seen Li Chenan, but he knew that this young man must be Li Chenan.

He quickly knelt down.

He only knelt halfway, and before his knees touched the ground, Li Chenan held him up.

A soft voice came from his ear:

"Old man, are you trying to kill me?"

The old man was startled, and slowly stood up with Li Chenan's support.

He looked at Li Chenan in surprise!
very close.

In the light of the torch and lantern, he saw that young and handsome smiling face.

"Regent……!"

The voice of the old man was trembling, because he never expected that the regent, who is so powerful in the world, would be so easy-going!

He didn't even expect that the master would personally help him up.

"I am Li Chen'an!"

The group of people who came with all kinds of food had stared wide-eyed at the young man helping the old man up, but after listening to it now, they knew that the young man was the regent.

The crowd was suddenly excited!
At this moment, several old men suddenly let out an excited cheer——

"Caomin, meet the regent...!"

As the sound sounded, the thousands of people hurriedly put down the food in their hands, and all of them knelt down on the ground.

Youshan shouted: "Caomin, pay homage to the Prince Regent!"

The sound echoed in the night sky.

Xiahou Zhuo, who was standing behind Li Chenan, was shocked——

What is this called?
This is called popular support!

The voices of these people came from the bottom of their hearts, and they were willing to kneel on this icy snow!

Since ancient times, those who win the hearts of the people win the world!

Although there are only about a thousand people here, they represent all the people in Ningguo!

I want to come to Li Chen'an's actions to benefit the people have spread to Jiangnan Road, and he made these common people see the hope of a better future.

Li Chenan shook his head and smiled:
"Fathers and folks, get up!"

"Thank you Regent!"

Those respectable old men led the common people to stand up, and their faces were full of excitement.

They were extremely apprehensive when they came.

Because of their extremely low status, even in front of the county magistrate, they dare not raise their heads and look directly at them.

What's more, this is the Regent of Ning Kingdom!

But the Prince Regent didn't have that haughty aura that disgusted them, instead he was like an ordinary scholar.

This made all the people feel very comfortable. Even if they knew that this Lord was the regent, they all straightened up at this moment, and they all looked directly at the regent with joy.

"Regent,"

The old man standing in front of Li Chenan bowed and said, "We ordinary people can't help you much in matters like war."

"We can only pray for you, and hope that you can kill all those rebellious officials and thieves."

"Hearing the news of the King Regent's victory, the little old man discussed with several respected patriarchs in Fengxian County, hoping to do something for the King Regent and the heavenly soldiers of the King Regent."

"So I called on the people of Fengxian County and made some inconspicuous meals, thinking that the soldiers are hungry, I hope, hope that the regent will not dislike it!"

Upon hearing this, Li Chenan took the old man's hand, "What's the old man's name?"

This move immediately flattered the old man, and his voice trembled slightly:
"Old man, old man's surname is Liu, and the single name is Dong!"

"Oh...Uncle Liu,"

The old man was taken aback again: "The little old man would never dare to be called Regent by such a name!"

Li Chenan didn't care, he still held Liu Dong's hand, and looked at the common people.

"Fathers and folks are interested!"

"Speaking of which, we are indeed hungry!"

"The food you sent was just in time, better than anything else."

As soon as he said this, everyone immediately felt relieved.

After all, in the hearts of the common people, the majestic regent probably eats delicacies from mountains and seas.

Although these meals are the best in their respective homes, how can they compare with the imperial meals in the palace?

They were worried that the regent would refuse, but now the regent is obviously very happy.

Therefore, they were even happier, and they heard Li Chenan say earnestly again:

"Ningguo has suffered all these years, and I know that everyone's life is not very good."

"This ordeal is not a natural disaster, but... a man-made disaster!"

"I know that during the years when Ji Tai was in power, the rotten wood on the temple was an official, and there were endless levies and miscellaneous taxes."

"A large number of officials have been rich, and all the common people have suffered!"

"Now, Ji Tai has been crowned head, the officials in Kyoto have been replaced, and all the officials in Daopingjiang City in the south of the Yangtze River have also been dismissed. What awaits them is the trial of the law!"

"From now on, all the officials in Ningguo, no one who is guilty will be able to escape!"

"Next, many measures to benefit the people will be vigorously implemented after the new officials take office!"

"It's going to get better."

"Because Ningguo has you!"

"There are you hard-working, down-to-earth and loveliest people!"

After Li Chenan finished speaking, there was thunderous applause immediately.

Many wept with joy, many wailed.

They were suffering in their hearts, but there was no need to tell them now.

Xia Houzhuo closed his eyes, and completely gave up being cruel to Li Chenan.

He even had a thought... If Li Chen'an ascended the throne as the emperor, I am afraid that Ningguo will really have a future.

Then, under Li Chenan's call, the soldiers took the food from the common people.

Groups of three or four just sat on the snow and ate.

Li Chenan invited those old men, and brought some food to the barracks.

He sat with these old men, and let Xiahou Zhuo sit beside him.

The food was very sumptuous, and while eating, Li Chenan chatted and laughed happily with those old men.

They talked about state affairs and poems, and more about some secret things about Jiangnan Road that these old men said.

Xiahou Zhuo was not polite either.

He ate the last dinner of his life very seriously.

He is very full.

It's worth dying for.

Then go die.

He got up and said goodbye to Li Chenan.

Accompanied by Amu, he found a place away from the crowd.

Amu handed him a pill.

He ate it without hesitation.

Looking at the stars in the sky, with a smile on his face, he whispered:
"Your Highness, I'm here to accompany you!"

It was night, Xiahou Zhuo died.

On the vast plain of five fans, there is an unremarkable tomb.

No stele.

The head of the grave faces the direction of Kyoto.
