Confused

The rain in Guangling continued from noon to night, but it didn't seem to stop.

Li Chenan sat in the Misty Rain Tower, looking at the fine water splashes on Huaping Lake for a long time.

Wen Xiaowan, this name is on the roster of the Lijing Division, but she is also a member of the Imperial City Division.

She called herself a slave in front of Shang Di... It is presumed that she came from Shang Di's Peach Blossom Island and was deeply trusted by Shang Di.

After getting along with this master Shang these days, based on his knowledge of people in his previous life, he believes that Shang Di is not a bad person, or not the heinous bad person he understands.

Shang Di is obsessed with melody, and has a heart of worrying about the country and the people.

Master Wu Xichen also said that Shang Di had a pure heart, but he could not tolerate the darkness of the officialdom, and was hit by Fan Taohua marrying Zhong Lipo, so he left the capital and came to Guangling City.

The picture is roughly the word leisure.

Touching the roster of the Ichthyosaur Club that was still hidden in his bosom, except for the few fish and shrimps he knew, he didn't know anything about the people in it, and he didn't issue an order from the helmsman to call those people back to see him See.

That Wen Xiaowan obviously recognized her today, the assassination of the former helmsman Song Yuanping will definitely fall into Shang Di's ears.

With his wisdom, he should know that the list is in his own hands... just leave it to him, those old people of the Fish and Dragon Society are probably not good people, especially that master Danqing Chang Scholar.

Let the Imperial City Division deal with them.

Next, the Yulong will split the helm in Guangling, and will have to recruit people again.

Look at Ye Po again, when the time comes, those people will be handed over to Ye Po for training.

Thinking of this, he put the matter aside, took the oil-paper umbrella leaning against the fence, and walked into the rain with the umbrella in his hand.

Calling the master who was drinking, the master and apprentice left Zhuoyu Xiaozhu and headed for Li's residence.

...

...

Peach Blossom Island.

Tinglan Waterside Pavilion.

Chunlan took the oil-paper umbrella from Shang Di and hung it on the wall. Qiu Ju brought a new pair of boots and asked Shang Di to sit down and put them on for him.

Then Chunlan lit a stick of sandalwood, and Qiuju cooked a pot of tea.

Wen Xiaowan stood behind Shang Di, gently pinched his shoulders for him, and said softly, "My lord, there is something I don't understand."

"Why don't you explain it and listen to it."

"Then Li Chen'an...he killed Song Yuanping and became the rudder master of the Guangling Prefecture sub-rudder. The servants thought about it all the way. Could it be that this was the instruction given to him by the Fish and Dragon Society?"

"Then did Li Chen'an get acquainted with a certain important figure at the helm of the Fish and Dragon Society, and that's why he got the position?"

Wen Xiaowan frowned in thought, then asked in doubt for a moment

"But the servant feels that something is wrong. Since his Huapingchun became famous in Guangling City, the servant has also heard rumors about him. They all say that he was really a fool. He has never appeared in Guangling City. However, how did you get to know the important figures of the Ichthyosaur Society?"

"Furthermore, even if someone from the Fish and Dragon Society comes to Guangling City, even if they are dissatisfied with Song Yuanping, shouldn't the position of the helmsman be selected from among the people inside the Fish and Dragon Society?"

Wen Xiaowan stopped moving her hands, her beautiful eyes were full of puzzlement, she shook her head, "It doesn't make any sense, I always think this is too weird."

Shang Di, who was sitting on the chair, stroked his long beard and smiled slightly.

"You have fallen into a strange circle of thinking!"

"Li Chen'an can become the head of the Guangling sub-helm of the Fish and Dragon Society, which does not necessarily require him to be acquainted with a certain important person from the Fish and Dragon Society."

"Don't you forget that old guy Wu Xichen has been protecting him, and don't forget that Wu Xichen went there in person that night at Zhuoyu Xiaozhu!"

"In this world, if there is a list of people who are most loyal to Zhongli Mansion, Wu Xichen should be ranked first!"

"Think about it, what is Wu Xichen's purpose in helping him kill those people who are at the helm of the Guangling branch of the Fish and Dragon Society?"

Wen Xiaowan was taken aback for a moment, and then pinched Shang Di's shoulders with those gentle little hands, "So... the Zhongli Mansion is actually behind this incident?"

"certainly!"

Shang Di picked up the teacup and took a sip, "The old man thought that Li Chen'an came into Zhongli's mansion from the time of the third day of March when Miss Zhongli chose her son-in-law."

"Although Li Chen'an has never participated in the selection of a son-in-law, his second couplet and his song "Butterfly Love Flower" probably really moved the third lady, and thus attracted the attention of Zhongli Mansion."

"Then the third Miss Zhongli was attacked in Erjinggou Alley... Of course it couldn't be a real attack. Now that the old man thinks about it, it was Miss San who deliberately wanted to get close to Li Chen'an, which explains the rumors in the market... that is to say The rumors that Zhongli Ruoshui fell in love with Li Chenan might be true!"

"Otherwise, why would Zhongli Ruoshui give the land beside Taohuaxi to Li Chenan?"

"Zhongli Ruoshui will definitely not leave Wu Xichen by his side when he leaves Guangling City to go to Yujing City, the capital!"

"That girl Zhongli Ruoshui is no less intelligent than her grandma. She is very clear about the troubles Li Chenan will encounter in Guangling City."

"Of course that kid Zhonglisu knew his daughter's little thoughts, so the old man guessed that Zhonglisu also wrote to ask Fan Taohua, and then Zhongli Ruoshui also went to Yujing City, so the old lady Fan from the capital decided for this The future grandson-in-law did something."

"This is a feat!"

"Bringing Li Chen'an into the Fish and Dragon Society as the helmsman, Zhongli Mansion can use this to ease the increasingly tense conflict with Prime Minister Ji on the surface."

"With the identity of the helm master of the fish and dragon club, Li Chen'an can stand firm in Guangling City and even walk sideways!"

"In addition... if Li Chen'an can make good use of this identity, maybe he can become a great help to Zhongli Mansion."

Listening to Shang Di's eloquent analysis, Wen Xiaowan gradually understood that there were so many calculations behind all this.

So that kid Li Chenan got lucky?

"But in this way, will the Crown Prince's family think that Zhongli Mansion is standing by the Second Prince's side?"

Shang Di didn't answer this question because he didn't know how to answer it.

He has lived on the Peach Blossom Island in Guangling City for a long time, and unless there is a special mission from the Imperial City Division, he will not care about the situation in the court at all.

But asking doesn't mean he didn't hear something, he knew very well that the current struggle in the palace had reached the point where he couldn't see it.

"These things have nothing to do with the old man."

"I'm cooking Yu Xiaozhu today, you have to remember what Li Chenan said, trust him, and help him!"

"Also... Tomorrow, you go to the Temple of the City God and tell Xia Miao to wish you well. The Huo family is getting their hands on the autumn grain in the south of the Yangtze River. Shen Qianshan's daughter, Shen Qiaodie, has left Guangling City."

"Let Xia Miaozhu send someone to watch it, but don't startle the snake. After the autumn harvest...see where the grain will go!"

"Your servant obeys... Your lord, Li Chen'an has the roster of the Ichthyosaur Society in his hand."

Shang Di grinned, "Originally, the old man wanted to get that roster, but now he doesn't want it anymore."

"Why?"

"Scholar Chang is not easy to deal with. The judge of our Imperial City Division, Wang Zhengjinzhong, didn't come to Jiangnan, so he went to Mushandao to see his son Wang Zhenghaoxuan."

"This old man can't kill Chang Scholar, let Li Chen'an deal with it himself!"

"Originally, I planned to go to the capital with Li Chen'an...Chunlan Qiuju, pack up, we'll leave early tomorrow morning!"
