Chapter 77 [Fan Xian Breaks Off the Engagement]

East Palace.

The celebration banquet lasted a long time.

Afterwards, Li Chengqian arranged for the expansion of the Eastern Palace with six buildings.

Since it is the grace of God, there is no reason for him to refuse it.

Expanded from 6,000 to 10,000.

Let Qiuzhu handle this matter.

Now, the entire Eastern Palace Six Commands are under her command.

This time, the Tianya Society was destroyed and the harvest was quite rich, including countless gold, silver and jewelry.

Tianyahui has been rooted in the southwestern Gobi Desert for many years, so naturally it has accumulated a lot of savings.

Before the expedition, Emperor Qing said that all the spoils would belong to Li Chengqian.

Therefore, these money naturally do not need to be handed over.

"Young Master, I have prepared a gift for you. It will arrive in three days." Qiu Zhu walked up to Li Chengqian holding a wine glass.

"Oh, there's a gift?" After saying that, he drank the wine she handed over.

Then, he pulled her into his arms and sat her down.

Perhaps it was because of the alcohol, this female general who was so majestic and decisive outside had a slightly red cheek at this moment.

"Your Highness will definitely like it when he sees it," Qiu Zhu said.

"Oh? Then in three days, I'll have to take a closer look to see what it is that could make you so serious."

The property obtained from the southwest Gobi Desert is already on the way to Kyoto.

"Could she be an exotic beauty?" Li Chengqian asked half-jokingly.

"Your Highness will know when the time comes." Qiu Zhu said mysteriously, deliberately keeping the audience in suspense.

Seeing this, Li Chengqian patted her lightly on the butt.

Her figure is very tight and curvy.

Years of practice have resulted in excellent proportions.

Golden ratio!

Moreover, she possessed a heroic spirit that the other three women did not have.

Unique beauty.

Li Chengqian took the opportunity to probe into her cultivation level.

"Yes, there has been another breakthrough in our trip to the southwest Gobi Desert!" Li Chengqian praised.

Qiu Zhu's realm has broken through to the half-step grandmaster level.

Below the Grand Master level, she is nearly invincible.

Even Hong Sixiang is no match for her.

"Congratulations, Sister Zhu, you are about to break through to the Grandmaster level!"

Chunmei, Xialan, and Dongju all looked at Qiuzhu intimately.

Hearing this, Qiu Zhu's face suddenly turned red.

Of the four sisters, except Qiuzhu, the other three had already given their virginity to Li Chengqian.

The only exception is Qiu Zhu.

Because the skills she practiced were extremely special.

If one cannot maintain his integrity, he cannot break through to the Grandmaster level.

Speaking of this, the four sisters naturally understood each other and knew what they meant.

The heroic female general's face flushed red, and she was obviously shy.

Qiu Zhu's physique has another special feature. Whenever he gets nervous, his body will emit a strange fragrance.

At this moment, the three sisters all sniffed and looked at Qiu Zhu with interest.

"Your Highness, I'm going to take a bath."

After saying that, she left quickly as if she was escaping.

Guo Mansion.

study.

"Dad, tell me, was I wrong at the beginning?"

Somehow, Guo Baokun suddenly felt a little regretful.

If he had not been expelled from the Eastern Palace, he would have shared in the glory today.

But now, he gets nothing.

Before that, he was an editor in the Eastern Palace, so he was an official after all.

But now, he is just a commoner.

Minister of Rites Guo Youzhi glanced at his son.

“It may not be a good thing for the prince to have too much power.

The higher you stand, the more painful it will be when you fall, so you don't have to feel lost.

I have already arranged everything for you. You will be assigned to the Ministry of Rites in a while."

Guo Baokun didn't say anything, but felt a little lost and gloomy when he thought of today's scene.

I had planned to go and watch the fun, but in the end, I became the one who was having fun.

"Dad, that Qiu Zhu is really amazing. Such an amazing person is actually just a maid beside the prince."

Guo Baokun couldn't help but be amazed when he said this. "Dad, tell me, if I go to the crown prince, with my great military ability, can I lead the six generals of the Eastern Palace?"

Hearing this, Guo Youzhi was stunned.

After a long while, he took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and asked:

"Who gave you the courage to say such things?"

"Dad, you look down on me. Just wait, one day, I will prove myself to you.

I believe that I also have the potential to become a great general in the world, leading a large army and conquering all directions.

His battle record is definitely not inferior to that of Qiu Zhu.

If she can defeat fifty thousand with six thousand, I can do the same!"

Hearing this, Guo Youzhi's face turned dark.

I raised my hand and wanted to say something, but it seemed as if something was stuck in my chest and I couldn't speak for a long time.

After a long while, he finally let out a breath and said with certainty:

"This is absolutely impossible!"

"Dad, you look down on me." Guo Baokun looked sad.

Fan Mansion.

Fan Xian returned to Beijing today and everything was OK.

I went to Qing Temple and saw the legends about the temple.

However, because Lin Wan'er went to the city gate to watch the massacre of the soldiers, he did not meet Lin Wan'er.

At the city gate, the butcher's voice echoing among the clouds, "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince," also gave Fan Xian a great shock.

In the study room.

Fan Jian was working in the office and never looked up.

Fan Xian just stood there and waited quietly.

It was not until dark that Fan Jian finished his work.

Fan Jian told the story of the inner treasury one by one.

Fan Xian was silent for a moment, "You mean, I want to snatch the inner treasury from the crown prince?

Judging from today's situation, the prince's strength is obvious.

I was afraid that he would kill me before I could even make a move.

Dad, you can't hurt me.

I don’t want to be spitted on by beggars when I walk on the street.”

Fan Jian shook his head, "It's not the crown prince, it's the eldest princess."

Fan Xian was silent for a moment, "Dad, I don't want to marry Lin Wan'er, nor do I want the inner treasury.

It’s my own life, I should decide for myself.”

Fan Jian looked at him and said, "At least there should be a way to support the family."

So, Fan Xian talked about soap, white sugar, and glass.

But, without exception, all failed.

"Since you have a son, why do you need a mother?"

After sighing, he suddenly said:

"When I was in Danzhou, I got to know the prince. It shouldn't be difficult for me to seek him out and get a job."

Fan Jian suddenly stood up and said, “The fight for the throne has always been extremely dangerous. If you are not careful, you will be doomed.

Although the prince is powerful now, he may not be able to win in the end.

It is unwise for you to take sides at this time."

Fan Xian touched his forehead and said, "There's no rush for work. At worst, I can just rely on my parents. You don't lack money anyway.

Please tell me first, how can I cancel the engagement?"

Fan Jian gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty has granted me the marriage, how can I cancel it just like that?

Do you think this is a joke?"

After that, seeing that he was serious, he sighed again and said:

"Looking at the court, the only person who can help you break off the engagement is perhaps the Crown Prince."

"That's great, I'll find an opportunity some other day to get to know the way.

This prince has always had a very good reputation among the people.

I think it’s good too.

It seems that my decision to break off the engagement will also depend on him."

"In this way, you will definitely offend the second prince." Fan Jian said.

"Who is stronger, the Second Prince or the Crown Prince?" Fan Xian asked.

“As things stand now, the prince is already in the court, has been granted a seat by His Majesty, and has become one of the four great leaders.

Moreover, Your Majesty has already made it clear that from now on, most court affairs will be supervised by the Crown Prince.

From this point of view, the prince is naturally better.

However, the Second Prince is not weaker in power either, and the final outcome is still unknown."

Fan Xian thought for a moment and said, "There's no rush for the rest. Let's cancel the engagement first. I'll go and ask to see the Crown Prince another day."
