I really don't want to be a traitor

Chapter 41 Homecoming
Liu Bei left, but left behind a "Picture of the Suspected Tomb of the Last Emperor of Qin".

Qin was not the only dynasty before the Three Kingdoms, but it was definitely a very special dynasty!
It is generally accepted that there is only one word, which is most suitable to describe this dynasty.

powerful!
Strong Qin!

This is the most unpretentious way of expressing it, and it was unanimously recognized by the famous Confucian sages in the past thousands of years after the death of Qin Dynasty.

Many people also believe that the Three Kingdoms of Chu, Han, and Ming are nothing more than picking up the former Qin Yahui.

"Should I go?" Xiang Ning hesitated.

She looked at the "Picture of the Suspected Tomb of the Last Emperor of Qin" for a long time, but because the picture itself was a copy, Xiang Ning had no way of checking the authenticity.

Moreover, she was by no means a learned scholar. Even if the real picture was presented to her, Xiang Ning would not be able to distinguish it.

Of the three people sitting on the dragon chariot, one of them was barely knowledgeable.

Xiang Ning glanced at Fan Li. This guy was sleeping soundly in the most comfortable position in the middle of the dragon chariot?

It was like sleeping on the emperor's dragon bed. It was simply... no different from Fan Li's usual treacherous behavior...?
"Your Majesty, is it appropriate for him to sleep like this?" Lu Fubao approached Xiang Ning and pointed at Fan Li, who was sleeping soundly.

Xiang Ning was a little moved when he heard this!

She really deserves to be the daughter of Lu Chunqiu. Although she has not yet performed the ceremony, she already has the consciousness of being an imperial concubine and knows that she is always thinking of her own emperor.

But Lu Fubao's next sentence almost made Xiang Ning die of anger.

"Your Majesty, since I have become your royal concubine, do you want to call Lord Fan 'my father-in-law' like you do?"

"The concubine can't afford to lose people, Mr. Fan is at most ten years older than the concubine, right?"

Xiang Ning froze for a moment.

Yes, you know how embarrassing it is?What about me?
Fan Li, the traitor, is only about ten years older than you, and you don't even want to call him 'xiang father'.

I am only four or five years younger than him, and I have been calling him "Xiangfu" for several months.

"you……"

Xiang Ning thought of Lu Fubao's family background and didn't dare to have even the slightest temper.

"You can just call him 'Jin Gong', that's what I call him too."

After finishing speaking, Xiang Ning drooped his head, looking pitiful like a defeated fighting cock.

"So it's not that Fan Li is too strong, but that I am too weak? Fubao is my imperial concubine, but I don't even dare to offend her. I am the most incompetent emperor in the world, right?"

……

…………

The Chu Emperor finally arrived at the capital Pengcheng.

The news of Xiang Ning's 'victory' against Emperor Jiajing had already been sent back to Chu State.

Pengcheng was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations to congratulate the emperor on his victory.

In the imperial court, Sangong Jiuqing and other civil and military officials have already left the city for thirty miles!
In the palace, the Empress Dowager had already set up a feast to clean up Xiang Ning.

"I'm a little tired, so I won't be attending the celebration banquet later."

When the emperor's guard of honor passed by the street where Fan's mansion was located, Fan Li left a word and went home in style.

Xiang Ning was dumbfounded.

She had been thinking about how to stabilize Fan Li during the celebration banquet to prevent him from bullying her in front of the officials.

However, this turned out to be her own passion?
fan mansion.

"Big brother, third child, little sister, I'm back!"

The Fan family naturally knew about the return schedule of Emperor Chu's guard of honor.

As soon as they heard Fan Li's yelling, the three brothers and sisters immediately came out to meet him!

They originally thought it was an intimate scene of family reunion, but when the three of them saw Fan Li, what they said shocked him.

"Second brother, I heard that His Majesty actually defeated Emperor Jiajing? If it is true, he will be disadvantageous to the second brother sooner or later! According to the eldest brother, it is better to strike first and suffer disaster later..."

Fan Li: "...???"

As soon as the eldest brother Fan Ming finished speaking, the third brother Fan Chun jumped out impatiently.

"The Hunjun is presumptuous and dares to show off during the Three Emperors' Alliance, so that the second brother has no chance to show off. In my opinion, he should be against him!"

Fan Li's cheek twitched.

He wanted to ask Fan Chun, do you know what the "Three Emperors" in "The Alliance of Three Emperors" means?

"Second brother, Yuehua has a way to solve the Xiang family's threat once and for all!"

Fan Yuehua looked murderous, completely unlike the legendary 'Fairy Yuehua'.

Fan Li shook his head again and again.

Please don't say it, I don't want to hear it!
"Didn't the second brother choose the queen and the imperial concubine for the foolish emperor? Why don't the second brother also get married and have children as soon as possible. When the queen becomes pregnant and gives birth to a son in the future, we will give him a trick and exchange the second brother's child with the prince. How much? Years later, the throne of Chu will naturally fall into the hands of my family, Fan."

Fan Li rolled his eyes when he heard this and thought, I just got home, can't I serve you a bowl of hot tea?
Do you have to stand at the door of your house and talk about rebellion?

After finally appeasing his brothers and sisters, Fan Li simply dived into the practice room.

In this private practice room, which was strictly prohibited from intrusion, Fan Li's first clone was still sitting cross-legged in meditation.

"Use a stand-in doll."

The second perfect clone appeared. Without saying a word, he walked straight to the first clone and sat down, and also began to meditate and practice.

Fan Li checked his cultivation level.

The first avatar has practiced hard for many days, and with the support of the elixir provided by Fan's firm, it has finally managed to break through to the fifth rank of Body Refining Realm.

"Too slow." Fan Li shook his head with a wry smile.

He thought for a while, and began to meditate with his legs crossed.

Although twice the cultivation speed is good, it is not as good as three times.

……

…………

Great Chu Palace.

After the celebration banquet, the slightly tipsy Xiang Ning was held by the Empress Dowager's hand and walked all the way to the depths of the harem.

The two stopped in front of a palace gate, Xiang Ning raised his head, and the word 'Jiaofangdian' came into view.

Xiang Ning suddenly remembered!

Jiaofang Palace?
Isn't this a palace exclusively for queens?
Before the death of the late emperor, the empress dowager lived in Jiaofang Palace, and she did not move out until Xiang Ning ascended the throne.

"Mother, mother, mother...mother? What are you?" Xiang Ning said in horror.

She suddenly remembered something, her face flushed with shame, and she looked at the empress dowager in disbelief.

"Fool, what are you thinking? Do you think I will force you to consummate the house with someone? Silly boy, you are not a real man."

The Empress Dowager said, but the strength in her hands was quite strong.

Holding Xiang Ning's hand, she used her completely irresistible strength to forcefully pull him into the Jiaofang Hall.

The Jiaofang Hall is magnificent, after all, it is a place dedicated to the residence of the mother of the country.On an ordinary screen in the hall, there is also a picture of "Hundred Birds Paying Attention to the Phoenix" painted by a famous painter.

Xiang Ning's panic calmed down a little as he admired "A Hundred Birds Paying Attention to the Phoenix".

The Queen Mother suddenly said: "Princess, please come out and meet me."

Xiang Ning's eyes widened sharply, only to see a beautiful figure walking out from behind the screen.

A beautiful woman with an alluring face that even Xiang Ning envied.

Xiang Ning didn't know her, but he had heard of her, and knew more about her future relationship with him.

His heartbeat accelerated, and Xiang Ning even lowered his head in embarrassment, not daring to look directly at the other party.

However, the princess moved lightly to Xiang Ning, and stared at her with beautiful eyes full of smiles.

That look was like a playful child admiring his new toy.

"My concubine, Princess Liu Man of Changle of the Han Dynasty, pays homage to Your Majesty."

After her gentle words fell, Princess Changle knelt down in front of Xiang Ning.
