The system runs away at the beginning, I regard the way of heaven as my father

After entering the city, the rain stopped and the sky became completely dark.

But the city is as lively as fire and the lights are like stars.

Li Chuyi pulled the donkey and walked casually on the bluestone slabs, looking at the flags of various merchants flying among the green walls and green tiles.

"Ugly Donkey, we are hungry, let's go eat. Don't worry, I will cut the grass for you in the village. I will find you a big inn here and ask for the best fodder."

Li Chuyi patted his chest and whispered in the donkey's ear.

"Hui'er Hui'er."

Although that is what he said, after Li Chuyi shopped around many stores.

Finally, I found a relatively remote inn with a mediocre environment, but it was better than being cheap.

"Ugly Donkey, don't worry. I didn't bring much money when I left the village this time. I will definitely take you to see something new next time." Li Chuyi patted his chest again.

"Hui'er Hui'er."

The innkeeper is a woman in her forties who still looks charming.

"Shopkeeper, do you have better fodder? I can pay more money."

"It's ten cents for fodder. If you want better fodder, it's five cents more." The shopkeeper yawned and replied casually.

"I want something better. Give me a bowl of rice and two side dishes. By the way, please give me more bowls and chopsticks. Thank you, shopkeeper."

Li Chuyi cupped his hands and thanked him with a harmless smile.

"Do you have anyone else?" the shopkeeper asked casually.

"No, it's just me. The other set of bowls and chopsticks is for my dad."

As soon as these words were spoken, the shopkeeper's eyes immediately changed when he looked at Li Chuyi, like pity and distress.

When the dishes arrived and seeing the table full of chicken, duck and fish, Li Chuyi lost his composure and looked at the shopkeeper.

"Shopkeeper, I just want two side dishes. I don't have that much money for this table of dishes."

"It's okay. I won't charge you more. These extra dishes are just for me to treat you to. You are growing up at your age, so how can you eat two dishes?"

The shopkeeper gently patted Li Chuyi on the shoulder, with a smile and appreciation in his eyes, and then called the waiter to give instructions.

"Change that donkey to fresh fodder, with more fine chaff in it."

Seeing this, Li Chuyi thanked him one after another, as if he had met a kind person.

Seeing the richness on the table, he first set out a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and then put a little of each dish into the bowl.

He said respectfully: "Dad, please come first."

Then, Li Chuyi started to enjoy the meal.

The shopkeeper on the counter couldn't help but sigh when he saw this scene.

"What a filial child."

On the other side, the donkey was chewing fine chaff and fresh grass in the stable, grinning so hard that it bared its teeth.

And the shopkeeper probably didn't expect her behavior tonight.

Not only did the inn's business prosper from now on, she, who was originally a widow, also found a husband-in-law who loved her, and finally gave birth to a fat son.

It has become a legend in this small town.

After eating and drinking, Li Chuyi first helped the waiter to put away the dishes and chopsticks.

Then he returned to the room and put down the baggage.

Opening the window, the hustle and bustle of the street greeted him. Li Chuyi decided to go for a walk to eat.

……

Qinghe County is neither big nor small, just like the people in the city want happiness, no more and no less.

Everyone here has a smile on their face, including dignitaries and peddlers. Everyone has his own happiness, no more, no less, just right.

Li Chuyi walked slowly and watched.

Stop and chat with passers-by from time to time and listen to their stories.

His face also showed expressions of surprise, regret, and admiration, as if he had completely integrated into other people's stories.

Suddenly, there was a sound of gongs and drums ahead, attracting many pedestrians to rush over.

"The theater is singing an open-air opera today. It's free. Everyone, hurry up or you won't be able to get a seat."

When Li Chuyi heard it, he thought there was such a good thing, so he quickly followed the pedestrians and rushed forward.

When he arrived, the area around the stage was already crowded, and the actors had already started singing.

So he watched from the periphery, listened and cheered loudly, and competently acted as the atmosphere team.

There were two actors on the stage, one dressed as a general and one dressed as a prince.

Their singing voices are melodious and their movements are smooth and precise.

After listening for a while, he understood what the story was about.

Probably the emperor is about to die, but at this time the emperor does not intend to pass the throne to the prince, but wants to establish someone else.

And this general not only has countless troops, but he is also the most brave and good at fighting.

So the prince prepared to persuade and win over the general to rebel with him.

Li Chuyi was fascinated by what he heard, and he also wanted to see how the general would choose.

At this time, he didn't notice that a group of people slowly walked behind him.

These people were all dressed up, but the man and woman at the head were dressed like a wealthy family.

"My little friend, do you think this show is good to watch?"

Li Chuyi didn't look behind him, he just thought it was someone asking casually, so he hurriedly said: "It looks good."

"Then if you were replaced by that general, what would you choose?"

"I?"

At this time, he subconsciously looked back.

I saw the person behind me wearing a black brocade with cloud patterns and a mink fur cloak outside. He looked like he had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and was full of momentum.

The woman next to him also has an amazing appearance and temperament.

"This little brother, I would like to ask you, if you were in the position of a general, what would you choose?"

The man asked again, looking at Li Chuyi with expectation in his eyes.

"Husband, why are you asking this kid? How can he have any great ideas as a teenager?" A hint of impatience flashed in the woman's eyes.

"Madam, don't be irrational. You know how much I know about people. This little friend's fortune telling is endless."

"I understand, husband."

The man first blamed his wife and then hugged Li Chuyi.

"Troublesome, little friend, but this answer is very important to me."

At this time, the opera on stage had come to an end.

The general did not agree to the prince's request, but chose to be loyal to the king, but the prince rebelled by himself.

As for the result, it is unknown.

Li Chuyi looked at the extraordinary man and woman in front of him, thinking that this eldest brother was too involved in the drama?

However, he thought about it briefly and replied: "It's simple."

"How about a simple method?"

"If I had an army of one hundred thousand, I would consider being loyal to the emperor and save him. But if I had an army of one million, it would be an act of God, and I would live a long and prosperous life."

"If you receive orders from Heaven, you will live forever?"

Hearing this answer, the man fell into deep thought.

By the time he reacted, Li Chuyi had already walked away and disappeared into the bright lights.

"Husband, this child is right. Nowadays, the imperial court is corrupt and only cares about internal strife and the pursuit of pleasure. Without us guarding the border, the Taoyao Kingdom would have been finished long ago."

"Who are you still loyal to, what country do you love? Forget it."

The woman's eyebrows were heroic and her voice was sonorous and powerful.

"lady?"

The man looked at his wife, and then looked back at his brothers who had been together through life and death.

At this moment, something seemed to be loosening in his eyes.

The instigator, Li Chuyi, has returned to the inn and is hugging the donkey's head in the stable.

"Ugly Donkey, tonight is the first time we spend the night outside in so many years. You have to stay calm and don't be afraid."

"Hui'er, Hui'er."
