Teng Zijing now places his hopes on Fan Xian, so he least wants anything to happen to Fan Xian.
Fan Xian said indifferently, "I didn't come to Kyoto to cause trouble. Besides, he is a grandmaster. I must be crazy to offend him. That's the same as seeking death."
"However, seeing how nervous and scared you three are, I am really curious about this Duke of Zhenguo. Can you tell me about his deeds?"
…………
After Zhou Chen left Yishiju, he did not return home, but asked He Qin to drive to Zuixianju.
When she saw Zhou Chen again, Si Lili could not hide the resentment in her eyes.
"Since you redeemed Miss Sang Wen, you have only come once in a long time. It seems that I have no status at all in your eyes."
Zhou Chen certainly didn't take Si Lili's words seriously, and chuckled, "I'm here today."
Si Lili said: "Since you came so early today, I guess you didn't come just to see me, right?"
"I'm here to remind you that something big might happen in Kyoto soon. As I told you before, for your safety, I hope you can evacuate Kyoto as soon as possible, otherwise you will be in danger."
In the plot, Si Lili suffered a lot because of Fan Xian. Although she successfully returned to Northern Qi in the end, she also experienced several life-and-death crises.
With Haitang Duoduo's request, and the fact that he and Si Lili had been getting along well over the past few months, Si Lili was nice to her, beautiful, and could serve others. As a man, he naturally had desires for her.
To be honest, he didn't want Si Lili to suffer.
Si Lili approached Zhou Chen with a charming look on her face, looked at Zhou Chen's face, and asked in a tender voice: "Are you concerned about me?"
"if not?"
Zhou Chen rolled his eyes at her in annoyance. Seeing that she was getting closer and closer, he didn't bother to be polite with her. He grabbed her soft hands and pulled her to his side with a gentle tug.
"I'm also a normal man, so it's best not to get into trouble."
Si Lili leaned in Zhou Chen's arms, twisted her body gently, and blushed: "What if I'm going to get angry?"
"Well!"
Si Lili's eyes suddenly widened in shock. She was stunned by Zhou Chen's kiss. She wanted to struggle, but she felt her body was limp and out of control.
So she gave up resisting, slowly closed her eyes, and let Zhou Chen do whatever he wanted.
It took a long while before Zhou Chen let go. The moment their lips parted, Si Lili woke up from a dream. She quickly stepped back, her face flushed, not daring to look Zhou Chen in the eye.
Zhou Chen said calmly: "I said, I am a normal man. No one can stand what you did just now."
Seeing that Zhou Chen was taking advantage of her, Si Lili became even more shy. She gave Zhou Chen a fierce look and tried hard to calm herself.
"You just said that something big is going to happen in Kyoto soon. What do you mean?"
Zhou Chen said unhappily, "I'm kindly reminding you that you still want to get information from me. Your identity as a Northern Qi spy has actually been known to others. I'm sure you know that once it's exposed, there will be no good end."
Si Lili did not show any fear, but instead smiled slightly.
"If I'm really in danger, you will definitely save me, right?"
"I will save you, but the Grand Master is not a god. It is impossible for him to save you all the time. If you don't want to leave now, you must prepare yourself mentally."
Si Lili then straightened her face and said seriously, "I understand. Thank you."
If she could leave, of course she would like to leave, but for the sake of her brother, she had no other choice. Without orders from above, she could not evacuate at will.
Chapter 1442 The first official meeting with Fan Xian
With a beautiful woman by your side, drinking and listening to music, time naturally passes quickly.
Zhou Chen arrived at Zuixianju in the afternoon. In the blink of an eye, it was already evening and he was ready to leave.
"Sir, how about staying here tonight?"
Completely forgetting the embarrassment and shyness she felt after being taken advantage of by Zhou Chen just now, Si Lili began to flirt with him again without knowing her own limitations.
Zhou Chen said seriously: "As long as you are willing to spend this long night with me, I don't mind staying."
Si Lili spat. She was indeed an oiran, but the reason why she was the number one oiran was because she was still innocent. If someone succeeded in getting her, her value and reputation would be greatly affected. At the very least, she would no longer be sought after by the public.
She admitted that she had a strong liking for Zhou Chen, and even felt envious and moved when she saw Sang Wen living a very comfortable life after being taken into Zhou Chen's house.
But she was still sober. She was different from Sang Wen. Sang Wen was a human being who could serve Zhou Chen wholeheartedly, but she still had her younger brother whom she cared about the most in her heart. It was also for her younger brother that she returned to Qing Kingdom and acted as a spy.
People who have concerns in their hearts often find it difficult to give up everything.
Zhou Chen laughed, turned around and left. Si Lili was indeed attractive and he was indeed tempted, but this kind of thing still requires mutual consent in order to cooperate better.
Si Lili leaned against the doorman and watched Zhou Chen's departing back. This man really fascinated her. The longer they spent together, the deeper she fell in love with him.
"The eldest princess, Haitang Duoduo, Sang Wen, is such a charming man..."
Although she spoke in a coquettish tone, her eyes were full of tenderness. After a long time, she sighed softly and went back to the house.
When he returned home, Sang Wen was still awake and cleaning the house for him, obviously waiting for him.
Zhou Chen walked over and hugged her delicate body, and Sang Wen leaned on Zhou Chen naturally.
"Sir, please sit down. I will fetch some water for you to wash."
Zhou Chen enjoyed Sang Wen's service. This was supposed to be a servant's job, but she liked to rush to do it. She would rush to do anything that required serving Zhou Chen.
In the eyes of people in modern society, it is an extremely sad thing that women in feudal society can only be vassals of men. However, they do not know that in this feudal society, almost ninety-nine percent of women are willing to be vassals of men, because to them, men are their heaven.
All I can say is that the times are different, the etiquette is different, the thoughts are different, and the mentality is different...
At least for Sang Wen, she felt that serving Zhou Chen like this was the happiest and most reassuring thing. If you really let her go out to work and fight in public, she would feel uneasy and nervous.
…………
There are many people who can't sleep at night in Kyoto, such as Fan Xian.
In order to investigate his assassination, he went out with Teng Zijing at night, preparing to go to the intelligence shop to buy intelligence, but was followed by Fan Ruoruo.
So the three of them went to the intelligence shop together, and the process of purchasing intelligence went very smoothly. Not only did they buy the intelligence they wanted, but it was also very detailed. However, Fan Xian became suspicious and went back to take a look, and in the blink of an eye, there was no one in the shop.
Fan Xian was alert and didn't know whether he should believe the intelligence he bought. Although the intelligence indicated that the prince wanted to kill him, he always felt that it was not that simple. Unfortunately, neither Teng Zijing nor Fan Ruoruo could help him in this regard.
After receiving the information, Fan Xian and the other two did not return home immediately, but went to another place.
"Is this the mansion that was destroyed by the Grandmaster Zhenguogong with one palm?"
Fan Xian pointed at the dilapidated mansion that was fenced off in front of him, his face full of disbelief.
Even if you just take a look at this yard from the outside, it is at least several thousand square meters, maybe even more. How can a human destroy it with just one palm?
"It's incredible, but this is the truth. This place was destroyed by the Duke of Zhenguo with one blow. Many people saw it with their own eyes. It must be true. After several months, no one dared to move here."
Teng Zijing was not surprised to see Fan Xian's shocked expression. When he first saw this mansion, he was just as shocked as Fan Xian. How could this be caused by human martial arts?
"That's why I told you today that in Kyoto, this Duke of Zhenguo is the one you should never mess with. You may have some martial arts skills, but think about whether you can withstand this palm from the Duke of Zhenguo. Also, the Duke of Zhenguo is not best at fists and feet, but at swords."
Fan Ruoruo's face was also full of shock, thinking back to the young man she met this afternoon who was almost as handsome as her brother. Was he so violent?
Fan Xian swallowed his saliva. He was best at using the sword, but he could easily destroy a huge mansion with just a palm.
He had only heard before that the Grandmaster was the strongest expert in the world, but he had no idea in his mind. He just thought that the Grandmaster should be similar to him, but with more true energy, faster speed, and stronger in all aspects.
But when he saw the scene in front of him, he felt that his worldview was overturned. How could this be martial arts? It was more like fantasy martial arts, okay.
"Teng Zijing, you are right. The Grandmaster is not to be trifled with. I really don't want to trifle with him."
Fan Xian, who has modern memory, does not fear the imperial power in ancient feudal society, but he is truly afraid of the great master whose power exceeds that of ordinary warriors.
Today is his second day in Kyoto. He has no fear of the Crown Prince, the Second Prince and others, or even the Inspection Institute, but he is really scared when facing the Grand Master.
"This Kyoto is too dangerous. I don't know where Uncle Wuzhu has gone. My teacher said that Uncle Wuzhu is as good as a great master. I feel more at ease with Uncle Wuzhu by my side."
The news that Zhou Chen had dinner with the Second Prince at Yishiju today soon spread to the ears of all major forces. As the Second Prince's biggest rival, the Crown Prince naturally also knew the news.
In response to this, the prince was furious in his mansion. He was very dissatisfied with Zhou Chen. He had sent invitations to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and even went there in person to give gifts, but he still didn't see Zhou Chen, so he had given up long ago.
But today, Zhou Chen actually sat with the second prince, which made him very uneasy.
Thinking that his aunt had met Zhou Chen, he decided to go to Guangxin Palace tomorrow to pay a visit to his aunt and discuss things.
Other forces were also watching the situation. The dispute between the Crown Prince and the Second Prince was a well-known matter in Kyoto.
There are three great masters in Qing Kingdom. Ye Liuyun is not in Kyoto, and the other one is in the imperial palace. If Zhou Chen supports the second prince, even if he is alone, he will be a huge threat to the prince, so many people are waiting to watch the show.
Emperor Qing naturally also knew about this. He crushed the arrow in his hand and his eyes were gloomy.
He didn't think that Li Chengze could win over Zhou Chen. What made him unhappy was that if Zhou Chen got close to Li Chengze, the relationship between the Crown Prince and the Second Prince would definitely become worse.
Judging from his own experience, he felt that Zhou Chen's approach to the Second Prince was due to some conspiracy, especially since he happened to meet Fan Xian today, so he had to think more about it.
He was confident that he could control the fate of others, and even the great master Ye Liuyun was subdued and used by him.
But Zhou Chen is different. He has been collecting information about Zhou Chen, analyzing Zhou Chen's personality, trying to find a way to control Zhou Chen.
However, there is too little information about Zhou Chen. Apart from that action, Zhou Chen rarely appears in public, making it impossible to conduct in-depth analysis.
As for using the Ye family to balance the power like Ye Liuyun did, it is even more undesirable.
What is the current situation of the Zhou family? Apart from Zhou Chen, there is only one aunt. However, the relationship between Zhou Chen and that aunt is extremely bad, and her usefulness is really limited.
However, in the past two months, Zhou Chen took a brothel girl into the mansion. Emperor Qing thought it was a joke that a brothel girl could be used to control Zhou Chen.
Now, Emperor Qing has the impression that Zhou Chen is a genius with no visible weaknesses. Even if he wants to plot against him, he has no idea where to start for the time being.
At this time Zhou Chen suddenly got in touch with the second prince. Even though he knew what was going on, he still felt uncomfortable as he couldn't control the situation. He put imperial power above all else, and what he hated most were people he couldn't control.
Zhou Chen is the kind of person that Emperor Qing hates the most. He hates him more than Ku He and Si Gu Jian.
Another day passed. Fan Xian sang a poem "Climbing the High Mountain" at the residence of Prince Jing, which made him famous in Kyoto and earned him a reputation as a talented man. This was also the first time he became famous in Kyoto.
"The wind is strong and the sky is high, the monkeys are howling sadly, the sand is clear and the white birds are flying back... I have just put down my muddy wine cup!"
At Zuixianju, Si Lili recited the seven-character poem that had just been handed to her in front of Zhou Chen.
"It seems that this illegitimate son of the Fan family from Danzhou is quite talented."
Si Lili twisted her body and sat next to Zhou Chen in a charming manner, pressing her body against Zhou Chen, not treating Zhou Chen as an outsider at all.
After hearing the song "Climbing High", Zhou Chen didn't know how to comment on it.
Throughout the thousands of years of Chinese history, this poem of climbing a mountain is indeed one of the best seven-character poems, but one has to admit that the artistic conception of this poem is really not something that a teenager can create.
It is a bit strange coming from Fan Xian's mouth, but the merits outweigh the flaws, because the quality is there and it is unprecedented, so naturally it is attributed to Fan Xian.
He could also understand Fan Xian. After all, it was his first time traveling through time. He couldn't control his desire to show off, and it suddenly burst out.
"But this Mr. Fan is quite interesting. He has only been in Kyoto for two days and he has already come to the Liujing River to look for prostitutes. Is he so impatient?"
Zhou Chen smiled. He naturally knew why Fan Xian came here. However, it was only a matter of time. It was estimated that no man who had traveled through time from the modern era could resist the temptation of a brothel. Even if he didn't do anything, he would definitely want to come and take a look.
"How many people who come to Kyoto will not come to the Liujing River?"
"That's true. I'm also quite curious about this Fan Xian. If it weren't for you, my enemy, I would really like to meet this Mr. Fan."
Zhou Chen picked up the wine glass and drank it all. This is how Si Lili and Fan Xian met in the plot, and then they started a fateful relationship. However, such a thing would naturally not happen again now.
Si Lili is a courtesan who has risen to prominence in the past year. She has never had a lover before, but has been admired by countless men and her fame has spread far and wide.
The appearance of Zhou Chen made her reputation as an courtesan even more famous, but because of Zhou Chen, fewer people dared to set their sights on her.
"If you want to see him, it's very simple. Just ask him to come over later."
Fan Xian and Prince Li Hongcheng of Prince Jing walked into Zuixianju together. Fan Xian, who had never seen a brothel, was stunned by the luxury and splendor inside Zuixianju.
He had lived for so many years, but had never seen such a scene before. He was dumbfounded, but also very excited.
Li Hongcheng introduced the situation of Zuixianju to Fan Xian. It was also the first time for Fan Xian to see an "ancient" brothel. There were so many things going on, which broadened his horizons.
While visiting Zuixianju, Fan Xian had already inquired about Guo Baokun's situation. Guo Baokun was indeed in Zuixianju. The purpose of his coming here today was to find Guo Baokun, and visiting the brothel was just a side trip.
But when people get here, it is naturally impossible for them to do nothing. They also have to prepare witnesses for themselves.
So, after Li Hongcheng found a woman, he carefully selected a girl named Qin Shuixian, who was nicknamed "Pure as Ice and Jade".
Just as they were about to return to their rooms, a maid suddenly came over.
"I pay my respects to His Highness, Master Fan."
"you are?"
"I am Miss Si Lili's maid, and I am here on the orders of the Duke of Zhenguo to invite you two to come aboard for a chat."
"The Duke of Zhenguo?"
Li Hongcheng and Fan Xian were both shocked when they heard this. Li Hongcheng needed no further explanation. Fan Xian had also heard about the Duke of Zhenguo yesterday, so he was so shocked.
