Chapter 554 Unexpected Part 1
When Xia Hua said the name Li Chenan, Hua Manting was slightly surprised.
But it wasn't too surprised.
A handsome young man like Li Chenan who is full of poetry and writing and has a high position and power is of course the object of admiration among many young girls.
This girl is indeed very beautiful and has a very good temperament. She is considered to be the daughter of a wealthy family in Shuzhou.
Maybe Mei Fangxi met her.
Hua Manting poured another glass of wine for Xia Hua and smiled: "It turns out that the girl also likes Li Chenan... But I heard that he not only has a fiancée named Zhongli Ruoshui... He also has a fiancée named Xiao."
"The girl seems to be coming a little late."
Xia Hua looked up at the rain outside the pavilion, pondered for a moment but said:
"Actually, I don't know if I fell in love with him...it shouldn't be!"
She withdrew her gaze and looked at Hua Manting. Maybe Hua Manting was very kind, or maybe she didn't know her anyway, so Xia Hua just wanted to find someone to talk to.
"How to say it?"
"I just think his poems are really good, and he can be called a poet."
"This should be a bit admiration for him, that is, an appreciation of his talent. As for saying that he likes..."
Xia Hua thought about it and shook it: "I'm sure I'm just a little curious about him, not like it."
Hua Manting stroked her long beard and smiled slightly. He thought this girl was quite cute.
Of course, he did not encourage the girl to pursue Li Chen'an, wouldn't that add a competitor to his daughter?
"I don't think you have to be curious about him."
"For girls like you who have read books, if you just appreciate it, you can cultivate your sentiment. But if you are addicted to it, you may even have fantasies... that is poison!"
"He is the regent of Ningguo. In the future, he will ascend the throne and become the emperor of Ningguo... Not to mention whether he will marry you after becoming the emperor, even if he marry you... marrying an emperor will look glorious."
"But only the people in the palace know how cold, lonely and cruel the harem is."
"The girl didn't fall in love with him, which is the best!"
"Think about it, emotionally, you came a little late, so you definitely can't compare with Zhongli Ruoshui."
"That Miss Xiao, she has been with Li Chenan for more than half a year!"
"Life and die together, share joys and sorrows, ride the same donkey! The two of them have not only experienced the test of time, but also have the same personalities and temperaments, and are inseparable."
"In terms of family background, you can't compare to Zhongli Mansion."
"In terms of martial arts, you can't compare to that Miss Xiao."
Xia Hua looked at Hua Manting at this time, thinking to herself, how did you know that this girl can't compare to them?
My family background is no less than that of Zhongli Mansion!
My martial arts...will Miss Xiao be better than me?
Hua Manting grinned and waved his hand at Xia Hua's dissatisfaction, "Put it aside, you don't know much about Li Chen'an."
"For people like Li Chen'an, the beauty that the world thinks is secondary to him!"
"Besides, Li Chenan has to go to Wu for Zhongli Ruoshui... He has no intention of liking other girls now, and it is difficult for a third girl to enter his heart."
When Xia Hua heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up.
She ignored the dissuasion words in front of Hua Manting!
"You said he was going to Wu?"
"yes."
"What did he do in Wu?"
"Go to the Sword Washing Tower, intending to find opportunities to practice the Former Zhoutian Art to save Zhongli Ruoshui's life... Many people know about this, but you don't know yet?"
"ah……"
Xia Hua suddenly panicked: "I, I rarely go out."
"Oh, Li Chen'an is here to Chongqing Mansion today. Have you ever seen it?"
Xia Hua nodded, "I saw it in the crowd."
"Then don't look at it more, let alone compare him with other teenagers!"
Hua Manting raised his wine glass, "I am worried that you will not be able to find your wishful husband after comparing. In the end, it will be your lifelong mistake for the girl!"
Xia Hua also raised her wine glass, and the old and the young drank a glass.
Xia Hua put down the cup, and her face was no longer as disappointed as when she came in.
She stood up slowly and bowed: "Thank you for your wine, thank you for your words."
"It's time for me to leave, see you!"
"Well, come and sit when you have time."
"good!"
Xia Hua turned and left.
A look of joy.
Hua Manting picked up the book again, not taking it seriously, but thought that he had saved a lost girl.
...
...
Zhongli Garden.
Yingchun Pavilion.
This is extremely lively.
For the people from Zhongli’s mansion, they were both the Regent of Ningguo and the future son-in-law of Zhongli’s mansion.
Most of the people here have seen Li Chenan for the first time.
Although they had known that Li Chenan was only eighteen years old, after they actually met them, they were amazed that the young son-in-law was so handsome... not just handsome, but he really had the aura of a superior person on his body.
After all, he is the regent of Ningguo!
Zhongli You welcomed Li Chenan to the top with great care.
"The Regent was exhausted all the way, and prepared a glass of wine to welcome the Regent!"
Li Chenan waved his hand and smiled slightly: "Uncle, this is too distant."
"When I arrived at you, it would be like I was back home."
"This is not in the court, and I am not a regent here. Just call me Chen'an, so I think I can drink two more glasses of wine even if I am free."
Li Chenan's simple words made everyone who accompanied him look at him with admiration, and the atmosphere here suddenly became much more relaxed.
Zhongli You laughed: "Then... it's better to obey your orders than respect,"
He sat in Li Chenan's left head, "Nephew, Uncle Rong will introduce you to everyone here... They are all core figures in Zhongli Mansion."
So, Zhongli You introduced it and Li Chenan remembered their names.
Especially Yuan Su!
This old man is the commander of the Divine Guards.
This welcome banquet was relaxed and pleasant, and Li Chenan responded calmly and moderately.
He was recognized by these people again, and at the same time, he also observed his expression and felt a little strange in his heart.
He did not see from any person's expression or words that Zhongli's mansion had the intention to be unfavorable to him!
They really regard him as the son-in-law of Zhongli’s mansion!
They very much hope that he can cure Zhongli Ruoshui's illness!
They even look forward to him becoming the emperor of Ningguo after he cured Zhongli Ruoshui!
I drank a lot of wine.
It is also a painting Pingchun produced in Shuzhou!
Many people became drunk, but no one showed any sign of detrimental behavior to him in the words he had after drinking!
They like him in their hearts!
Even a soldier like Yuan Su is no exception!
The banquet dispersed.
Zhongli You dismissed many people. He took Li Chen'an to sit in front of the tea table and cooked a pot of tea with his own hands.
Sitting on the side of Li Chenan were Yuan Su, Yuan Sanye and Liu Zhuo and Liu Daotai.
"My nephew,"
Zhongli was a little drunk, but his thoughts were still very clear.
"This painting of Pingchun made Zhongli's house make a lot of money."
"According to the original agreement, the part that belongs to you has been handed over to Ruoshui."
“These are secondary,”
Zhongliyou poured a cup of tea for Li Chenan, Yuan Su and Liu Zhuo, looked up at Li Chenan, and his expression became serious:
"Before my mother died, I sent me a letter!"
Chapter completed!
