After being divorced, my identity as a poet was exposed

Hot spring villa.

Teahouse.

Mei Fangxi observed carefully and always felt that something was wrong with the emperor today.

But I couldn't tell what was wrong.

Basically, it's just...unconscious!
That's not right. He makes tea very seriously and listens very carefully.

It's just that his tea-pouring hand...why does it shake a little from time to time?
Wen Boyu didn't pay attention.

At this moment, he was quite emotional. He stroked his short beard and sighed:
"Hey……"

"I feel a lot of guilt about Xiaowan."

Mei Fangxi noticed that Li Chenan's hand was shaking again.

"After all, it's still the arrogance of my youth...or maybe I'm just ignorant."

"She admires the culture of the Central Plains, and it happens that my knowledge is pretty good."

"I met him when I was traveling in Uighur when I was young."

"I have never thought about getting married in my life, so I have been to so many places and met so many women. In the end, they were all beauties, and none of them became my wife."

"It's just that I never expected that the girls from Uighur are not bound by the etiquette of the Central Plains. They are more courageous!"

Li Chenan looked at Wen Boiyu and thought of Xia Hua's mother Miao Qiuqin!
He was suddenly curious. When Wen Boyu was in the Kingdom of Wu, Miao Qiuqin went to Xiangsi Residence to find Li Xiangsi for him as a rich lady, and learned the dish of Braised Deer Antler with Pickled Vegetables for three months. .

Nian Chengfeng and others had heard about Wen Boiyu's past, but they didn't know much about it. At this moment, they all looked at Wen Boiyu with curiosity.

Wen Zhuiyu picked up the tea cup and seemed to be immersed in memories of the past.

"This road is difficult to walk, and I don't want the woman I love to walk with me carrying the burden."

"If the distance is too short, so short that it is difficult for me to control it, I will leave."

"I know my way."

There is no alcohol at this time, so it is very interesting to drink tea and listen to their stories.

Every man, especially men in their forties or fifties, has a story.

Wen Boyu shook his head and smiled, "Actually, now that I think about it, this is not heartless, but... selfish!"

"I'm afraid you don't know Xiaowan's mother. She, she is not from Ning. She is the seventh princess of the chief Huihe."

Wen Boyu suddenly smiled and woke up. There was a red candle outside the tent and a beautiful woman beside him. "

"So... I keep a sufficient distance from those confidantes."

Li Chenan listened curiously.

"In Uihe, Ye Wan - this is the name I gave her - also became my confidante."

"That night I was drunk and she held my hand."

"They say I am heartless..."

Wen Boyu ate the food cooked by Miao Qiuqin. Did he eat the food as well?

"That's it, she became my wife."

"She was pregnant, so I took her back to Ningguo and built the rain-brewing building in Guangling City."

"For the first time I stopped."

"But in my heart... I was not content with such a plain life at that time."

"I always wanted to pursue the so-called ideal, so I had many conflicts with Ye Wan."

"When Xiaowan was three years old, Yewan and I had a big fight and left in tears..."

"I said that she had imprisoned my freedom, as if I had been buried in a grave early. There was no light and it was suffocating."

"She said I was a heartless man and an irresponsible man!"

"You even laughed at me and said that you don't even want to stay at home, let alone a country!"

"Those so-called ideals of yours are just wishful thinking, and they are completely out of touch with reality..."

"I naturally retorted, saying that she was as reckless as a sparrow, and how could she know the ambition of a swan." "She said she was blind, and then she saw me clearly. It turns out that people who study are heartless people!"

"I... I'm actually not heartless. I just think that what I have learned in my life should be done with something, instead of staying at home every day, accompanying a woman, wasting time and killing my will."

"Xiao Wan was watching from the side. Her eyes... I guess it was helplessness and fear."

"Just like that, Ye Wan left. Although Xiao Wan stayed, I spent very little time with her."

"I asked Yang Sixian to burn down the Zhuyu building and burn away the traces left by Ye Wan in those years."

"I sent Xiaowan to Peach Blossom Island and entrusted her to Shang Di, and I wandered around the world again."

"Nearly twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye. Looking back on the past, I feel sorry for Ye Wan and I feel sorry for Xiaowan."

"I am really not a qualified husband, let alone a qualified father."

"Xiaowan has been affected by these things since she was a child, and she is not close to me. As she grows up, she becomes more and more rebellious..."

"She did some, some outrageous things. At that time, I thought she was giving up on herself. I tried to persuade her several times. Maybe it was because of her hatred for me that she only intensified her behavior."

"Now that I think about it, she was just trying to get back at me, or to get my attention."

"She cares!"

"Unfortunately, I didn't realize this at that time, and I was still struggling to pursue the so-called way of governing the country."

After a pause, Wen Boyu shook his head and laughed at himself:
"There was such a beautiful love in front of me, but I didn't know how to cherish it."

"Now that I am alone, I will know what it means to be deserted during this New Year's Day."

"Stop talking about this."

"As for me, the only thing I hope now is that Xiaowan can find a good home and find a man who is not unreliable like me."

Mei Fangxi saw Li Chenan's hand holding the teapot tremble again.

Wen Boiyu seemed to be in a much better mood after talking. He changed the topic and asked:
"We are here just to ask you. Tonight, Yihong Building and Taiyuan Branch jointly held a New Year's Eve cultural party. Do you have time to go and take a look?"

Li Chenan poured tea and spilled a few drops.

He already knew this. Putting down the teapot, he raised his head and asked:
"You want to go and have a look?"

"After all, tonight will be the first year of Zhen'an. Mr. Chen Dingmao and Chen are the head of the Chen family in Yingzhou. He has booked the largest room in Yihong Building."

"That's what I think. These aristocratic families have done a lot to raise food this time."

"It seems from this incident that the cohesion of our Ning country is slowly forming, which is a good thing."

"It doesn't hurt if you can go... have a drink and talk with them."

"Just think of it as having fun with the people, how about that?"

Li Chenan nodded slightly: "Okay, let's go together."

Then Li Chenan told Wen Boyu about Wang Zheng Jinzhong and his arrangements, and the atmosphere in the teahouse became leisurely and a little solemn.

Li Chenan did not dare to tell Wen Boiyu that Wen Xiaowan had brought back Uncle Zhong, which made Wen Boiyu wonder what Uncle Zhong's plan was in the wilderness——

He is the first person who knows Uncle Zhong’s identity!

Times have changed, will this senior brother have other ideas?

So for the next situation... we must at least be prepared for a battle with the Wild Country!

Important matters were discussed in the teahouse.

Of course, the neighbors in Changle City didn't know about these important events. Their faces were not solemn, but they were all happy.

The streets and alleys of Changle City are still lively.

Almost all the topics discussed were on the New Year's Eve party held tonight.

But the most talked about thing is that the emperor is in Changle City. As the Ningguo Poetry Immortal, will he go to participate?
There is an elegant courtyard at the end of Qiushui Alley.

Qian Yue hung up the last lantern and looked around, "Shili, Baimei, let's go out for a walk after we've packed up."

"Sister Qianyue, shall we go to the New Year's Eve party?" (End of Chapter)
