After being divorced, my identity as a poet was exposed

Chapter 784

It was May 24th, the [-]th year of Zhaohua.

Li Chenan and his party are about to arrive at Dongxu City, the capital of Wu State.

The news that the regent of Ning State had taken back Princess Zhongli Ruoshui spread throughout Dongxu City.

The people in Dongxu City have a somewhat complicated mood——

Now, Wu and Ning have become friendly allies, Wuyaguan has even been reopened, and merchants from the two countries can now communicate freely.

These are obviously a great good thing for the people of Wu State.

Troubled times are what the powerful like.

Only in troubled times can heroes emerge!
Only those who control wealth and power can seek greater benefits in troubled times.

But what the people like is the ordinary life in this peaceful environment.

If we can reduce taxes and have more opportunities to earn money in such ordinary days, that would of course be the best.

Obviously, Wu State is now in such a best era.

Then the hatred towards Li Chenan and Ning Guo should be put aside at this time.

As a result, many people flocked to the west gate of Dongxu City in the morning of this day.

They really want to see that legendary man——

He is the regent of Ningguo!

He is the Poet Immortal of Ningguo!

He is the second person to come out of the Forgetting Platform in a thousand years!
He is also the son of the owner of the mysterious Guiyuan in Dongxu City!
This Ningren came to Wu Kingdom's Kyoto and actually caused Wu Kingdom's Dongxu City to be deserted!
This is unprecedented.

It is said that even the girls in the brothel got up early that day and dressed up carefully.

One by one, they dressed themselves up beautifully and arrived at the west gate of Dongxu City, surrounded by the maids and wives.

The students of Dongxucheng are no exception.

All the students from Wanlin Academy ran away. The master who was teaching did not get angry because of his anger. Instead, he put down his lesson plans and ruler, and quietly went to the west gate quietly.

This seemed to be beyond Wu Huang’s expectation.

When the ten-mile long street inside the west gate was congested, and when Qiuyueyuan outside the west gate was also crowded, a thousand-man Imperial Forest Army came from the ten-mile long street.

They separated the crowd on both sides of the long street.

It also divided the crowd outside the city on both sides of the Qiuyue Avenue.

Everyone looked towards the distance of the avenue, eagerly anticipating the arrival of the regent of Ning Kingdom!
……

……

Wu Kingdom Palace.

Royal study.

Emperor Wu put down the memorial in his hand and looked up at Zhang Jingzhong:
"Where are you?"

They didn't say who was where, but Zhang Jingzhong knew who Wu Di was referring to.

He bowed and said, "Back to the Emperor, the spies from the Imperial Chamber just reported that they have arrived at the Spring and Autumn Pavilion."

Emperor Wu stood up slowly, "It's almost here."

"This kid..."

Emperor Wu grinned and shook his head: "I really didn't expect that this kid would cause such a sensation when he entered the capital..."

"I recall that when I went on an expedition to Southern Chu, I did not receive such courtesy from the people when I returned home."

"Jing Zhong, I was thinking just now that this may be what the people want!"

Zhang Jingzhong was still bowing, thinking that Your Majesty, you went on an expedition to Southern Chu. Although you brought back Xue Zhaoyi, you did not open the frontier and did not receive any compensation from Nan Chu.

In addition to increasing a lot of taxes for the people... it also caused many women in Wu State to lose their husbands and become widows.

These common people dare not say anything with their mouths, but they are like a mirror in their hearts.

Fortunately, the emperor did not make any more troubles in the next few decades, which gave the people of Wu a chance to breathe.

In the past few decades, the emperor has been extremely diligent, which has gradually restored Wu's national power and gradually made it look like a prosperous age.

Now that we have formed an alliance with Ningguo, the future will be even more promising.

It's just that within the Wu Kingdom... the emperor has not yet made a decision on the successor to the throne. "The old slave thought... maybe the people are just curious about him."

"After all, he is a young man in his twenties. If he really takes charge of Ningguo in the future, no one knows what the future direction of Ningguo will be."

Emperor Wu walked a few steps back and forth in the imperial study, stretching his muscles.

"I'm optimistic about him."

Zhang Jingzhong was slightly startled, raised his head, and asked doubtfully: "Why?"

Emperor Wu stood at the door of the imperial study, clasping his hands behind his back and looking at the gorgeous garden outside in the sunshine.

"tolerance!"

"mind!"

"Vision!"

"decisive!"

"It's so passionate!"

"Fu Er Zhou Tian Jue... the invincible magic skill in the world, if someone else masters it but loses it... Take Wu Qian for example, do you think Wu Qian will laugh it off like Li Chenan did?"

"When I first met Li Chenan in Xijian Tower, I thought he would be very depressed and lost, and he would be impatient to find Zhongli Ruoshui... He was indeed impatient to find Zhongli Ruoshui, but it was not what I thought. In order to regain his inner strength!"

"He said that he doesn't have such a thing as internal strength. His purpose of practicing martial arts is just to envy those people in the world who can rise to the top."

"It was only later that he learned about Zhongli Ruoshui's illness, so he had no choice but to practice. Now that Zhongli Ruoshui is fine, Zhongli Ruoshui has gained his invincible internal power, and he is happy in his heart."

"I can see that his urgency is not to regain the inner power that belongs to him, but to worry about Zhongli Ruoshui's safety."

"This is magnanimity!"

"After he learned about the Yinmen and the Great Wilderness Kingdom, he proposed an alliance with the Wu Kingdom without thinking at all... Wen Boyu knows Li Chenan very well!"

"He even directly told me to open Wuya Pass and allow trade between the two countries."

"The national power of Wu State is greater than that of Ning State. Once trade is opened, more of Wu State's products will be sold to Ning State, which is originally detrimental to Ning State's business!"

"But this move can stimulate the gradual development of Ningguo's business. In the long run, this will be of great benefit to Ningguo."

"This is the horizon!"

"I talked a lot with him that night, and his words were extremely candid. I... benefited a lot!"

"It's a pity that I am old. I can already foresee that the Ning Kingdom will rise, but these sons of mine..."

Emperor Wu let out a long sigh, turned around, and looked up at Zhang Jingzhong:
"What is Wu Qian doing these days?"

Zhang Jingzhong bowed again: "Back to the Emperor, Your Highness is thinking behind closed doors."

Emperor Wu raised his eyebrows but did not comment.

He walked back to the desk and picked up a set of words.

This word is quite ugly.

But there was a smile on his old face:
"The great enlightenment suddenly hears the bell, and the teaching is blurred by the mist and rain, so one should wake up."

"Floating life is like a wild goose. When I see the sky is about to fall, I turn back."

"Having a child should be like Li Chenan!"

"It's a pity that I don't have that blessing!"

"Send this couplet to Wu Qian...go and call Qin'er."

"Li Chenan has taken Zhongli Ruoshui back. His heart is at peace, so he will set off back to Ningguo after staying in Guiyuan for a while."

"Let Qin'er follow him to Ningguo."

Zhang Jingzhong was startled: "...Your Majesty, in what capacity does Princess Qin go to Ningguo?"

Emperor Wu pondered for a moment: "Her status as Princess Qin is enough!"

"Qin'er, I like her very much, so I can't let her be implicated by her mother."

Emperor Wu's face gradually darkened, "Even if she is sad to leave Ningguo, it will happen in the future."

"Just wait a little longer."

"Wait until Li Chenan takes Qin'er home!"
