Deep Meaning

That night, a poem that shocked the whole Ning country and even the whole world was born.

That night, Hua Manting, Liu Zhuo and Su Mu were very drunk.

Li Chenan was still not drunk.

Early the next morning, he still got up early, ran in the morning as before, and exercised outside the Yanyu Pavilion.

The morning of Huaping Lake is still so beautiful, but the delphinium that used to like to rest on the willow tree has gone to nowhere, and the painting boat at the pier has disappeared.

Li Chenan returned home when he had two shots in the sun.

Hua Manting only woke up when the sun was high.

After washing up, he came to the Zuixin Pavilion.

Liu Zhuo was already sitting here, boiling a pot of tea.

"Teacher, please!"

"Um."

Hua Manting sat down, and Liu Zhuo poured out two cups of tea, handed over a cup respectfully, and said in a low voice, "After listening to what the teacher said yesterday, I have some doubts in my mind, so please ask the teacher to clarify."

Hua Manting took the teacup, but asked: "At the beginning of last night, you probably looked down on that kid Li Chenan. What do you think of the song "Will Enter the Wine" he wrote later?"

"To tell the truth, teacher, the name Li Chen'an doesn't sound very nice in Guangling City... I really didn't understand the teacher's good intentions at the beginning."

"That poem is very good, and the poems are born from the heart. That kid is really a heroic person. He has been dormant for more than ten years, which also shows his firm will. If he has the opportunity one day, he may soar into the sky."

"It's just... this disciple still doesn't quite understand why he has been hiding his clumsiness for more than ten years. I thought about it last night. Could it be that the two houses of the Li family in Yujing City are not in the right position in the dispute between the crown prince and the second prince?"

"He was afraid that he would be implicated, so he pretended to be a fool?"

"This... Regardless of whether he has such foresight or not, no one dares to make a conclusion about the final outcome between the crown prince and the second prince. His move doesn't make sense, and his father Li Wenhan doesn't have the ability to predict."

Hua Manting took a sip of tea and waved his hands, "I can't figure out his change like that, but it's not important. As for the other two houses of the Li family standing in line and his forbearance over the years...you're overthinking it." too much."

He put down the teacup and looked at Liu Zhuo, "You may think that it is the teacher who wants you to take care of him for a while. Of course, the teacher also has this intention, but the deeper meaning of the teacher is... If one day there is a bad In a good situation, he may be able to take care of you a little bit!"

Liu Zhuo was shocked, thinking that he is a commoner, if the capital really flooded, and Guangling Prefecture was really going to be flooded, how could he help me?

Why can he help me?

Hua Manting was not surprised by Liu Zhuo's surprise, and he didn't even explain it.

He looked at the blue sky, pondered for a moment and said slowly:

"As a teacher, I have done a lot less research on literature in recent years. It's not that I lack energy, but...the students are too old, so that I spend all my energy on human relations, but forget the original intention of the past, and live a poor life. It's not as pure as it used to be."

"I feel a little tired these days, but I don't know where this tiredness comes from, until I heard his song "Qing Xing'er" in the Yanyu Pavilion in Huaping Lake the day before yesterday."

"This little brother has sounded a wake-up call for Teacher Wei, and made Teacher Wei understand a truth."

"Whether there are flowers or no flowers, the choice is spring and autumn."

"Being a teacher fell into a cliché and chose the Spring and Autumn Period... The struggle above the temple is becoming more and more complicated. I don't know whether it is right or wrong to choose for the teacher, but it is already wrong to choose for the teacher!"

Liu Zhuo looked at Hua Manting in astonishment, and his heart skipped a beat.

"It's like looking at Huaping Lake in the Yanyu Pavilion. Standing in the pavilion, you can have a panoramic view of all the beautiful scenery of Huaping Lake, and you can clearly understand the spring of Huaping Lake. But if you are in the lake... what you see is just in front of you. There is more than ten feet of water, but I don't know the seasons."

"The fault of being a teacher is that you are in a lake."

"You are also in the lake."

"But there is one person in Kyoto who is on the shore."

"who?"

"Dingguo waits for Zhongli to break!"

Liu Zhuo opened his mouth, "Didn't you hear that Marquis Ding was standing behind His Highness the Crown Prince? This time, in the defeat of Mobei, the Crown Prince wanted to lead an army to fight in person. I heard that Marquis Ding was going to hand over his invincible army To His Highness the Crown Prince..."

Hua Manting smiled and waved his hands again, "Marquis Dingguo really wants to hand over the Shenwu Army to His Royal Highness, but it's for the country, not to stand in line!"

"...Then, even if you are asking someone to save you, it should be asking Ding Guohou. Given the friendship between the teacher and Ding Guohou, is it the best choice for the student to go to Kyoto with the teacher to visit Ding Guohou? "

"That's how you look. That old fox in Dingguo Hou may not necessarily meet you. Besides, his wife Fan Taohua is the most powerful person in Zhongli Mansion."

"Fan Taohua loves her granddaughter Zhongli Ruoshui the most."

"And at least from the current point of view, Zhongli Ruoshui has a great interest in Li Chenan."

Liu Zhuo was taken aback again, and only then did he understand the deep meaning of the teacher's move.

Due to the emperor's health problems, the faction between the court and China has become increasingly severe. Although it has not yet reached the end of the day, the undercurrent has become more and more intense.

His Royal Highness the crown prince was born of the empress, but the empress died of illness four months after giving birth to the fourth princess Ning Chuchu.

If the empress is still here, then the crown prince's position in the East Palace will definitely be as stable as Mount Tai.

But the empress is gone.

Although the emperor did not canonize the queen again, the most respected person in the future palace fell on the head of Concubine Ji.

The second prince is the son of Concubine Ji.

Ji Tai, the current Prime Minister of Ning Kingdom, is the father of Concubine Ji.

According to Ningguo etiquette, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is of course the orthodox one.

However, everyone wants to be emperor, but there can only be one person in that seat. Teacher Hua Manting, as a representative of the etiquette system, of course stands on the side of His Highness the Crown Prince.

Then, as a disciple of Hua Manting, he naturally became a member of the prince's family.

Originally, the teacher firmly believed that the crown prince would become emperor after a hundred years, but now it seems that the situation is not very good.

Zhongli Mansion has an extremely lofty status in Ning State, mainly in charge of half of the military power, so the attitude of Zhongli Mansion will naturally have a great influence on the new emperor.

Zhongli Mansion didn't choose where to stand, so it became a transcendent existence of Ningguo.

It's no wonder that Zhongli Ruoshui held a ceremony to recruit a son-in-law in Guangling City, and even the Qi family from Jingdu came.

It's just that this kid, Li Chen'an, took the path of great luck and fell into Zhongli Ruoshui's eyes.

Teacher, this is to let myself plan ahead.

If one day the sky in the capital changes, maybe I can seek the protection of Zhongli Mansion through Li Chenan's relationship.

Liu Zhuo got up and bowed: "Student, thank you teacher for your advice!"

"You don't need to be too deliberate. After all, the outcome of Beijing and China is still unknown. After all, the emperor's body is quite strong."

"Of course, it's unknown whether Li Chen'an will eventually become the son-in-law of Zhongli's mansion, but as a teacher, it's worth getting along with him because of his knowledge and open-minded attitude."

"The students know."

"I will return to Beijing in a few days, and his poems should be spread in the capital."

"Your junior brother Su Muxin, prepare to let him go to Li Chenan's side for the sake of the teacher, and learn more about the principles of the world."
