Chapter 199 - Shangshufu

Li Chenan was slightly taken aback, took the letter and opened it.

Only one line on letter paper

"At noon, Tongshun Alley, Hubu Shangshu's Mansion."

The words are beautiful.

But there was no signature, and the words were blunt, just a simple time and place...

Li Chenan raised his eyebrows, this second uncle really didn't like him very much.

Originally, he planned to visit the second uncle, not to hug the Hubu Shangshu's thigh, but to say hello to him on behalf of his father, and to see this man by the way.

After all, two Li characters cannot be written in one stroke.

Unexpectedly, today he sent someone to deliver such a note, since he didn't want to see it, why did he need to see it?

Looking up at the sky, it was not far from noon.

Zhongli Ruoshui went to Dingguohou's mansion, she said that she didn't have to wait for her to go to Cheng Guogong's mansion to have a banquet at night, so she would stay in Dingguohou's mansion for a long time today.

If there is nothing to do, then go to the House of Ministers of the Household Department to have a look.

It is reasonable to go to my own uncle's house empty-handed, but Li Chenan thought about it again, he really didn't spend a penny to buy any gift, so he left Amu in another courtyard, and asked An Zizai to drive the carriage , the two headed towards Tongshun Alley.

The carriage curtains were open.

An Zizai sat in front and swayed, as if she was about to fall asleep at any moment.

Li Chenan looked around, only to realize that he had been in the capital for more than ten days, but he hadn't seriously visited the streets and alleys of the capital.

It seems that it is impossible to walk the streets of Kyoto in this life.

I have no regrets about this, on the contrary, I am looking forward to returning to Guangling City and then going to Shuzhou.

"Uncle An,"

"Um?"

"When Ruoshui and I return to Guangling, how about you going with us?"

An Zizai was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at Li Chenan, "It depends on what the old lady wants... I'm just a veteran, what are you going to do with Guangling City?"

Li Chenan grinned, "I have some recruits."

An Zizai was startled again, and looked forward, only then did he realize that Li Chenan had actually raised some soldiers in Guangling City.

It's a pity that he didn't ask Li Chenan how many recruits he had.

He thought this was the meaning of Zhongli Mansion in Guangling City, and secretly prepared another batch of soldiers with the help of Li Chenan, of course the number would not be small.

This is a good thing!

I have already been branded as the Marquis of Dingguo. Under the current situation, the stronger the Marquis of Dingguo is, the safer the future will be.

And now that I have nothing to do, if I can really go to Guangling City to train those recruits, of course it would be the best.

So, he said again, "In the mid-autumn festival, it is estimated that the old lady wants to see you, and whether I will stay or not... is all in the old lady's words."

Li Chen'an was overjoyed. After returning to Guangling City, the Li Family Army would regroup.

Li Xiaohua only had one hundred and twenty people in his hand, and he planned to incorporate those female disciples from Wanxizhai into the army, because Lijing Division seemed to have no hope.

The other one is the Bailai No. 1 gangster recruited by Ye Po!

These people are not easy to tame, at least Li Xiaohua can't control them, but it's different with An Zizi.

Besides, Xiong Da and the others, who were former veterans, were planning to join the Li family's army. They were originally An Zizai's subordinates, and they would not be dissatisfied with An Zizai leading them.

A thousand troops are easy to get, but a general is hard to find!

This An Zizai is the best general out there. With him in charge of the army, I will have a lot less trouble.

Although he is a bit fatter, he can't hold back because he is experienced and skilled!

"Then you have to be prepared, the old lady... I will convince her!"

An Zizai nodded, he didn't know how Li Chenan could persuade Mrs. Fan, this is not important, the important thing is that there is work to do!

I seem to be able to lose weight.

...

...

It is a bit far from Huaxi Bieyuan to Tongshun Alley.

To go through a full five streets and alleys, one of them must go through Wenchang Alley.

The Wentan and Wenchang Temple are located on the east side of Wenchang Alley, backed by the Yudai River.

Diagonally opposite Wenchang Temple is the highest institution of higher learning in Ningguo - Taixue Academy!

When the carriage passed by Wenchang Alley, Li Chen'an carefully looked at the place where the literary world was located, and then at the Tai Academy on the other side.

Brother Hua is here, and now the matter of Liu Zhuo has been settled, and he has also left the Fish and Dragon Association. He will come back from the Shangshu Mansion later, so he should stop by to see him.

Thinking so, the carriage came to the door of Hubu Shangshu's Mansion in Tongshun Alley.

Li Chenan got out of the carriage, and looked at the vermilion gate of the Household Minister's Mansion.

There are two stone lions in front of the gate, not too big, but somewhat majestic.

What is written on the lintel is not the five characters of Household Minister's House, but the words of Li's House.

He walked up, stood in front of the door, and knocked on the knocker.

After about ten breaths, the door creaked open, and the head of a young boy in blue poked out from the door.

"Who is the son?"

"Li Chen'an!"

The little servant was stunned for a moment, then looked at Li Chen'an carefully, opened the door, and bowed, "My lord, please come in!"

It didn't happen that the evil slave looked down on the poor boy, on the contrary, the boy was very respectful.

"Thank you little brother!"

The young man in Tsing Yi was stunned for a moment, and the smile on his face grew stronger, "Young Master, you are welcome!"

Li Chenan stepped into this door, the young man in green clothes closed the door, and walked in front of Li Chenan, "Sir, please come with the villain."

The two walked on the bluestone path of the Li Mansion one after the other. Li Chenan looked around, and it seemed that the Li Mansion was not too big. At least the front garden was not as spacious as the Li Mansion in Guangling City.

The house was also very quiet, I don't know if it was because there were not many servants or because it was already noon.

However, the flowers and plants in the yard are trimmed very neatly, which is completely different from the old rain building in Shangdi.

Walking all the way like this, passed through two moon gates, and walked through three corridors, the young man in blue brought Li Chenan to the backyard.

"Master is waiting for you inside."

"Thank you!"

"This is what a villain should do!"

Li Chenan looked at the half-hidden door of the West Wing in the backyard, raised his hand and pushed it open, and walked in.

This is an antique study.

What he saw was a figure sitting in front of a desk.

The man heard the door opening and didn't turn around. He seemed to be writing something, and he also said a word.

"sit!"

Not much emotion.

Not to mention coldness or joy.

Li Chenan didn't take it seriously, he sat in front of the tea table, took out the torch and lit the tea stove on the table.

And so he made a pot of tea!

It took Li Wenhou half a cup of tea before he put down the pen in his hand, turned around and was slightly taken aback, but didn't say anything.

He came to sit opposite Li Chenan.

Li Chenan looked up at him.

It is indeed my father's brother.

The face is thin, and the expressions between the eyebrows and eyes are very similar.

Li Wenhou also looked at Li Chenan, his expression was not happy to see his own nephew, even Li Chenan felt that there was a trace of displeasure, or...disgust hidden in his eyes!

How much hatred is this?

He still doesn't know the grievances and grievances between the three brothers of the Li family's father's generation, but now it seems that the grievances are indeed a little deep, and it has nothing to do with him.

Therefore, Li Chenan still made tea calmly.

He didn't speak.

Li Wenhou watched him make tea, Xu Shi couldn't hold it anymore, he finally said a word, just four words

"You shouldn't be here!"
