The Regent's Tender Darling

The moon has risen, and the capital city, where the curfew was lifted yesterday, is more lively than ever. Girls in twos and threes walk together, smiling coquettishly, and their colorful clothes shuttle among the crowd like koi fish in the pond.

The storyteller in the Yuenan Teahouse was spitting at the small table, telling vividly the life story of Li Maonian, the best swordsman in the world.

Someone below commented: "Li Maonian has disappeared for a long time. I heard that he will have a battle with Marquis Zhaoming later in the year. I don't know who will win!"

A man in black replied: "Marquis Zhaoming has been in the capital for many years and is nothing more than a martial artist. Then "Li Yidao" is naturally guaranteed to win!"

Anyone who disliked Li Maonian immediately became unhappy: "Tsk! Is Li Maonian your father? Isn't he a martial artist anymore?"

The man in black was stunned for a moment, then rolled up his sleeves: "Hey! Your grandma has legs!"

Xu Shi's voice was so loud that it also alarmed Yan Xuan in Tianzi Yajian. Hearing the noise downstairs, he couldn't help but frown.

"Wang Ying, go see what's going on outside."

Wang Ying, who was about to doze off while standing at the door, suddenly woke up. He was stunned for a moment without reacting and then quickly responded: "Yes."

As he walked out, he sighed. Even after it got dark, there was still no one coming. This official minister didn't take his prince seriously at all!

After looking around, he came back and said, "Your Majesty, a few people got into a fight downstairs. It doesn't matter, they were all taken away by the patrolling Forbidden Army."

After saying this, he raised his eyes and glanced at the prince who was sitting by the window sipping tea. He was so calm and relaxed, as if he was not waiting for anyone, but taking his own leisure.

"Your Majesty, the Minister of Civil Affairs is not coming. The carriage back to the mansion is downstairs." This time he no longer said the "little words that shouldn't be said".

After saying this, he will definitely not be able to come up with the second half of the sentence.

It is true that the official minister will not come. Although it is just his guess, it is not unreasonable.

Even if the Minister of Civil Affairs had planned to come to the appointment, it was already this hour and he would not come no matter how hard he said it.

After hearing this, Yan Xuan withdrew his eyes from the window, smiled casually and warmly, put the teacup gently on the table, and said, "He will come."

The firm tone and confident look made Wang Ying feel sad. Although he didn't believe it, he was still a little curious about why the prince was so sure.

He simply kept silent and went out to guard the door.

At the same time, Liu Wenzheng, dressed in regular clothes, stood at the door with a solemn expression.

Originally, he didn't even plan to leave the house at such a late hour, but after thinking about it carefully, he had to leave the house.

It wasn't that he was afraid of King An, but there was another reason.

Room No. 3 of Tianzi in Yuenan Teahouse is not a good place. Something happened in this room that shocked the entire capital.

It had been a long time, and most people in the capital had almost forgotten it, and even he only remembered it belatedly.

In the 20th year of Yan Zhao's reign, a traveler from the Great Food Country came to the capital. This traveler from the Great Food Country was named Scofu, and he was a famous businessman in the jade world.

The reason why Scofu is famous is not just because his jade is good, but more because all he carries are "black jade".

The so-called "black jade" is not a literal meaning, but some good treasures that are not even in the palace, or were originally intended to be tribute to the emperor.

Scofo will not deal with any transaction that is not of great value.

Originally, this person would not be known to so many people, but because of a transaction with the royal family, everyone in the capital knew his name.
