Chapter 534
In the West Lake in Pingjiang City, in the silver hook painting boat.

A singer named Miaomiao tells a poignant and moving love story to a rivers and lakes woman named Xiahua from the state of Wu.

Xia Hua seemed to be intoxicated by the story.

The hero of the story is currently on the road to Shuzhou.

And the heroine of the story, the girl named Zhongli Ruoshui, has arrived at Chongqing Mansion in Shuzhou at this moment.

Chongqing Prefecture.

This is the state capital of Shuzhou.

In the quiet night, the Xihe River flows slowly through the city.

On the east bank of the West River, there is a vast manor called Zhongli Garden.

It is the foundation of Zhongli Mansion in Shuzhou.

Fan Taohua gave birth to five sons and three daughters for Zhongli's family, among them, there were three sons and one daughter in Shuzhou!
Zhongli Ruoshui's uncle, Zhongliyou, lived in Zhongli Garden for a long time.

He is nearly fifty years old, but there is not a single strand of white in his hair, and his waist is also sitting upright.

He was cooking wine in the east courtyard of Zhongli Garden, chatting with Yuan Su, Yuan Sanye, Sikong Bao and the suffering monk.

Of course, they were talking about the things that came from Jiangnan Road.

"The Battle of Wufanyuan, this is a battle with extremely far-reaching significance!"

Zhong Liyou, who was born as a general, did not doubt the authenticity of the battle after hearing the details of the Battle of Wufanyuan.

He poured a glass of wine for everyone, looked at Yuan Su, and said:
"Fireworks are the most important thing in this war!"

"Even without the 1000 unknown soldiers from Maple Leaf Mountain, the Regent's [-] men and those fireworks are enough to defeat Xia Houzhuo's [-] coalition army!"

"This is a model of winning by surprise!"

"Fireworks are a strange thing. At least for now, no one knows how to prevent them."

"It is not only powerful, but the huge pressure it puts on the hearts of the soldiers is the most deadly!"

"The regent..."

Zhong Liyou smiled slightly, "Third brother, I found a good son-in-law!"

Yuan Su was also born in the army.

On the way from Lizhou City to Chongqing Mansion, he got the news of the Battle of Wufanyuan.

He was quite skeptical then.

But now, he was relieved and firmly believed in it, because Li Chen'an was coming to Shuzhou with his whole body and tail.

"The old slave is now extremely looking forward to seeing the regent."

Yuan Su stroked his long beard, "How did he create such a god?"

"If this fetish is equipped in every army, our Ningguo army...will be afraid of who?"

Zhong Liyou nodded: "No hurry, I heard that he has handed over the method of making this magical object to the Ministry of Industry, and the Firearms Bureau of the Ministry of Industry is already making it, but it needs to be sent to Wuya Pass first."

"By the way, after the Battle of Wufanyuan, Xiahou Zhuo committed suicide, and the regent appointed Xie Jing as the general of the northern frontier army."

"He asked Xie Jing to reorganize the fleeing frontier soldiers in Wufanyuan, and then went to Yanyun Pass...The [-] Shu soldiers led by father, do you know how the regent arranges?"

Yuan Su shook his head, "After all, Yanyun Pass is the last line of defense in the north of Ningguo. I am afraid that the [-] Shu soldiers will belong to the northern frontier army."

Zhongli You frowned slightly, those [-] Shu soldiers were originally private soldiers trained by Zhongli Mansion in Shu Prefecture!

If Li Chen'an really gave the order to ask his father to hand over the [-] Shu soldiers to Xie Jing...

He rubbed his hands together, but didn't express his worries.

"According to the time, when will the Prince Regent arrive at the Chongzhou Mansion?"

"Around the end of March."

"Oh……"

At this moment, Sikong Bao took a sip of wine, and suddenly asked Zhongliyou:
"Eldest son, is the eldest son of the emperor really in Shuzhou?"

Zhong Liyou pondered for three breaths, "When my mother was alive, she lived here for a while."

"She did say that the eldest son of the emperor is in Shuzhou, which is on the west mountain in Yinping County."

"Yinping County is not far from Chongqing Mansion, Xishan is just beside Xihe."

"My mother said that there is a temple on the west mountain called Jishan Temple."

"There is an old monk in the temple... His name is He Xishan! He is a eunuch."

"In the winter of the third year of Zhaohua, the eldest son of the emperor disappeared, and He Xishan disappeared at the same time."

"He is one of the great masters of Ningguo. He came to Shuzhou, built the Jishan Temple on the west mountain, and became a monk himself."

"He brought an infant in his swaddle, and once came to Chongqing Mansion to find a nanny."

Sikong Bao frowned, "In that case, why didn't the old lady welcome the eldest son of the emperor back to the capital?"

Zhong Liyou sighed slightly: "Mother originally wanted to wait for the situation in the capital to stabilize before doing this, but unexpectedly, three years later... when my mother went to Jishan Temple again, she only saw the old monk, not the emperor. eldest son!"

Sikong Bao was taken aback, "Where did the eldest son go?"

Zhong Liyou shook his head: "I don't know."

"Then why did the old lady ask the regent to come to Shuzhou to welcome back the eldest son of the emperor?"

"Because the old monk said that after 17 years, that is, this year, the eldest son of the emperor will return to Jishan Temple."

"...so no one knows who the real emperor's eldest son is except the old monk?"

"Exactly!"

Zhong Liyou raised his eyebrows, "He Xishan is cunning!"

"This person, in fact, was originally a monk. He is the brother of the great monk Jijue, the contemporary abbot of the Donglin Temple in Yue Kingdom, and his dharma name is the great monk Jimie."

"Everyone thought that he came to Ningguo because he couldn't bear the loneliness of the monastery, so he swung his knife and became a eunuch from the palace, but it's not like that."

"He was ordered by the Emperor of Yue to protect Empress Lu in the palace of Ning State."

"Of course, he obeyed Queen Lu's order and took away the eldest son of the emperor, which led to Queen Lu's murder."

"He knows that no matter where he hides, those who want the emperor's eldest son to die will definitely be able to find him through his tracks."

"So, he simply let go and let the eldest son of the emperor hide in the world... He is still in the Jishan Temple on the west mountain, but no one in the world knows the whereabouts of the eldest son of the emperor. In a blink of an eye, it has been nearly 20 years !"

At this moment, Yuan Su interrupted and asked: "Then, the fifty thousand troops that the old lady ordered the old slave to train...is to protect the emperor's eldest son after he is found?"

"Exactly."

"But the old lady has orders, whoever holds the Peach Blossom Order, the [-] troops will obey their orders!"

"I know, the Peach Blossom Token... the last person my mother saw before she was alive was Li Chen'an, so my mother must have given the Peach Blossom Token to Li Chenan."

Yuan Su asked again: "Then what if Li Chen'an holds the Peach Blossom Order and wants to kill the eldest son?"

Zhong Liyou pondered for three breaths, "He won't do that."

"Why is the eldest son so sure?"

"Because, he could have been enthroned as emperor, but he came to Shuzhou because of Ruoshui."

"This kid doesn't love this country, so he will definitely hand over the Peach Blossom Order to the eldest son of the emperor!"

While talking about these things here, Zhongli Ruoshui was sitting in front of the window of her boudoir.

There is moonlight like water in front of the window, and there is also a faint fragrance of flowers.

There was a sweet smile on her face.

Because there was a letter in front of her.

The letter was written by Li Chen'an and sent by the spies of the Imperial City Division.

She knew that Li Chenan was coming.

She knew that Li Chenan was thinking about her.

There is a poem written by him at the end of this letter.

Zhongli Ruoshui's apricot eyes contained spring and read slowly:

"Wild willow silk makes softness, and smoke weaves into sorrow.

Begonia is not raining, pear blossoms snow first, half of the spring break.

Now that the past is difficult to re-examine, return to the Qinlou in the dream.

Lovesickness is only,
on a lilac branch,

Cardamom tips..."

The girl's heart is soft.

She looked up out the window with a smile on her face.

It's almost March [-]rd.

It's been a year since I met you!
If you can live forever...

How good would that be!
