Chapter 1210 Fan Ruoruo

Su Ning's diligent practice naturally made his cultivation progress by leaps and bounds, and soon he was busy preparing to form a pill. This was nothing in front of Su Ning, who had practiced once before.

Eunuch Hou brought Yan Xiaoyi, who looked like a dead man, to Su Ning again. "Your Highness, Sixth Prince, this is Yan Xiaoyi, the deputy commander of the palace guards. The emperor has arranged for Commander Yan to be your riding and archery instructor."

"Okay! Eunuch Hou, please convey my gratitude to my father." Su Ning just glanced at Yan Xiaoyi beside him before speaking to Eunuch Hou.

"How about the Sixth Prince personally thanking His Majesty?"

"Eunuch Hou, are you teaching me how to do things?"

"Huh?" Meeting Su Ning's meaningful gaze naturally made Eunuch Hou shudder. He suddenly remembered that the child in front of him was not a simple child. "Sixth Prince, I dare not."

After Eunuch Hou cautiously left the place, Yan Xiaoyi clasped his hands together and looked at Su Ning and said, "Sixth Prince, how about we start practicing archery now?"

"good."

In the following period, Suning added another subject, horse riding and archery, which was not a big deal for the powerful Suning.

However, Su Ning did not want to appear too close to Yan Xiaoyi. Instead, he felt a little disgusted with the deputy commander of the guards in his heart, because he and the eldest princess Li Yunrui were completely the same kind of people.

As for trying to bring Yan Xiaoyi under his command, it was nothing but a pipe dream. Suning naturally would not do such a stupid thing. Instead, he had already decided in his mind on how to deal with things with one force and ten skills.

Many years later, as an irresponsible father, Emperor Qing finally remembered to care about Suning's studies.
"Yan Xiaoyi."

"Your Majesty, I am here."

"You've been teaching the Sixth Prince horseback riding and archery for quite some time now. What do you think of his talent in martial arts?"

"Your Majesty, the Emperor's bloodline is naturally extremely talented. With diligent training, one can definitely reach the level of a second-rate general."

"Well, that's great! He can guard the border with his big brother, the prince, from now on."

"..."

Although Yan Xiaoyi was a simple-minded warrior, he still knew that this was not the time for him to respond, and he could not show it even though he was very happy in his heart.

"Go! Teach the Sixth Prince martial arts well."

"Yes! Your Majesty, I will take my leave."

In fact, Emperor Qing couldn't describe his current complicated mentality, and he didn't know why he was so concerned about Suning. Of course, this all came from his fear and shame towards Ye Qingmei.

Now seeing that Suning was just an ordinary martial artist, Emperor Qing naturally felt relieved, as this meant that Suning would not pose a threat to his throne.

"Ye Qingmei, your stunning beauty wasn't inherited after all. I wonder what happened to that child in Danzhou?"

Emperor Qing was muttering to himself but no one responded. Even if someone answered him, he would not believe it because Emperor Qing, who was suspicious by nature, only believed his own eyes.

……

Time flies, and before we know it, the years have passed. At this time, Suning is already a sixteen-year-old boy.

One day, the annoying Lin Wan'er suddenly brought a little girl of the same age, which made Su Ning sigh that the little baby had grown into a graceful young lady.

Lin Wan'er pulled her best friend Fan Ruoruo over and asked mysteriously, "Sixth brother, guess who's next to me?"

"Is she the maid the emperor bestowed upon me?" Su Ning asked teasingly when he saw the beautiful Fan Ruoruo.

"Humph! Wishful thinking! She is Fan Ruoruo, the daughter of Fan Jianfan, the Minister of Revenue, Si Nanbo."

"Oh? Ruoruo?"

"Bah! Shame on you, Sixth Brother! You actually called me by my maiden name right away."

At this moment, Fan Ruoruo immediately saluted with a blushing face, "Your humble servant Fan Ruoruo greets His Highness the Sixth Prince."

"Ruoruo, are you willing to come and be my maid?"

"Ah..." At this moment, Fan Ruoruo and Lin Wan'er's brains completely crashed.

"You can go back and ask your father, Minister Fan, and tell him that I, the Sixth Prince of Daqing, Li Chengning, would like to have you as a maid. If both your father and you are willing, I will arrange for someone to go outside the palace and bring you in."

"..."

"Sixth brother, are you crazy?" Lin Wan'er looked at Su Ning in disbelief. She suddenly felt that Su Ning had become so unfamiliar today. Perhaps he didn't understand this cousin who was choosing a house at all. "Although Ruoruo is indeed a beauty, you shouldn't be so ridiculous, right?"

"Alright! Take Ruoruo for a good stroll around the Imperial Garden. She might never dare to come to the palace again."

"..."

Then Lin Wan'er and Fan Ruoruo naturally left here together. Even after they were far away from Su Ning, they were still frightened. They both felt that this mysterious Sixth Prince was too strange.

Fan Ruoruo looked at Lin Wan'er with a puzzled expression and asked, "Wan'er, has the Sixth Prince always been like this?"

"Huh? Of course not! My sixth brother has always been well-read and well-mannered. Today, he must have been bewitched by your beautiful face." Lin Wan'er, who suddenly felt jealous, still defended Su Ning and unconsciously mentioned her best friend Fan Ruoruo.

"Hmph! Wan'er, are you praising me or insulting me?"

"Hehe, of course I'm praising you. How about you consider my sixth brother's proposal?"

"Ah? Wan'er, even you are teasing me?"

"Hehe, alright! I'm not going to joke with you anymore. I'm going to take you for a nice stroll around the Imperial Garden."

"Ah."

Then Fan Ruoruo let her best friend Lin Wan'er hold her hand and headed straight for the most beautiful imperial garden in the palace. However, in her heart she was thinking about the big boy she had just met. She suddenly felt that this Sixth Prince was as weird as her elder brother Fan Xian.

Upon returning home, Fan Ruoruo naturally told her father about this matter. However, Fan Jian and Liu Ruyu had completely different attitudes towards the matter. "Ridiculous! Who does the Sixth Prince think of our Fan family?"

"Father, don't be angry! Our Fan family can just refuse directly. There's no need to get so angry that it hurts your body." At this time, Fan Ruoruo was naturally persuading the furious Fan Jian with a well-behaved face, and naturally, she couldn't help but feel a warm current flowing through her heart.

"Master, actually I think it's okay to agree to the Sixth Prince." However, Liu Ruyu on the side said disapprovingly.

"Ridiculous! Madam, did you take the wrong medicine?"

"Master, don't forget that I have a sister in the palace. She naturally knows more detailed information than us."

"Madam, what do you mean?" Sure enough, Fan Jian no longer had the rage he had just had. Instead, he began to weigh things carefully.

"Master, according to my sister, Concubine Yi's observations in the harem, although Concubine Li Chen and the Sixth Prince are both aloof from worldly affairs, the Emperor and the Empress Dowager dote on them. They are not the obscure harem figures as the outside world has rumored."

"So what! I, Fan Jian, am the dignified Sinan Earl of Daqing, a third-rank Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. How can my daughter be a maid?" "Master, you are confused! The Sixth Prince is of the orthodox bloodline of the Emperor. It is only a matter of time before he is crowned a king. It is not a loss for our Ruoruo to follow the Sixth Prince."

"Hmph! Let's not mention this matter again. I, Fan Jian's daughter, will naturally not allow myself to be humiliated." Fan Jian, who was quite astute, put on a show of righteousness. In fact, only he himself knew his true thoughts.

"..." The somewhat naive Liu Ruyu was naturally frightened by Fan Jian.

"Father, thank you very much for your protection." At this time, Fan Ruoruo looked at her father with a touching face.

"Alright! Ruoruo, don't take this to heart. What you just said makes sense. Why not just reject the Sixth Prince's unreasonable request?"

"Yes! Father, I'll take my leave. You and Second Auntie should also go to bed early."

"Well, go ahead!" Fan Jian looked at his daughter with a loving expression on his face.

The identity of the Sixth Prince is naturally extremely noble in Daqing, but how could the identity of a maid satisfy Fan Jian? At the very least, she must be the prince's legitimate wife appointed by the emperor himself.

After Fan Ruoruo left, Liu Ruyu continued to persuade him, "Master, you should think twice about this matter!"

"Hmph! Long hair, short knowledge! Can a maid make your heart beat? That's too much for you to belittle yourself." Sure enough, after Fan Ruoruo had completely walked away, Fan Jian finally expressed his true thoughts.

"Master, what do you mean?" Liu Ruyu looked at Fan Jian in front of her with a silly look on her face and asked.

"Judging from the current situation, the Sixth Prince will naturally have no chance of becoming the Emperor. Although my Fan family is of average rank, there shouldn't be any problem for Ruoruo to become the Sixth Prince's principal wife, right?"

"Uh?"

"Why? Madam, do you think this is impossible?"

"Of course not! If the master wants to facilitate this matter, it would be best to ask Concubine Yi in the palace to help act as a go-between."

"Well, Madam, what you said makes sense. Then please come to the palace."

"Yes! Master."

In the original drama of "Joy of Life", it can be said that all the cast members are smart, and their strategies and scheming are not something that ordinary people can understand, so Suning's operation this time naturally needs to be changed.

……

Emperor Qing, the dictator, naturally had a very solid control over Daqing, so the first thing he heard was that Su Ning wanted Fan Ruoruo to be his maid, which made Emperor Qing a little surprised at this bargain.

However, before Emperor Qing could figure out Su Ning's intentions, Concubine Yi had already accepted Liu Ruyu's request and started to persuade him, "Your Majesty, I heard that the Sixth Prince is very fond of Si Nanbo's daughter Fan Ruoruo. How about arranging a marriage between them?"

"Ok?"

At this time, Emperor Qing naturally couldn't help but think more, because he was a super master at playing with people's hearts, and his favorite thing was to use people's hearts as a battlefield for him to control the world.

As the only two sons of the "Fairy" Ye Qingmei in this world, Su Ning was naturally regarded as one of the most important weapons by Emperor Qing, so he had already made his own arrangements for Su Ning.

Although Fan Ruoruo is a good match for the Sixth Prince Su Ning, Emperor Qing is unwilling to waste Su Ning's marriage. He always likes to maximize the benefits of everything.

You should know that in the original drama, Emperor Qing used the marriage of Fan Xian and Lin Wan'er to complete many calculations and gained a lot of benefits.

"emperor……"

"Alright! I understand. Concubine Yi, you can go down."

"Huh? Yes! Your Majesty, I will take my leave."

Then the news that Su Ning asked for Fan Ruoruo, the daughter of the Minister of Revenue, to be his maid spread throughout Kyoto, and the dignitaries in Kyoto could not help but discuss it secretly, but most of the comments were that the Sixth Prince Su Ning was dissolute and immoral.

After hearing these discussions, Suning naturally just laughed it off. Of course, he knew that these discussions and comments were spread by people with ulterior motives, and their purpose was nothing more than to take the opportunity to completely ruin his reputation.

The Second Prince, Li Chengze, was laughing excitedly. He himself couldn't explain why he cared about the Sixth Prince, Su Ning. "Haha, mother, I didn't expect that the Sixth Prince's mind was on women."

"Nonsense! I've asked you to read so many books, but how come you're still so frivolous?"

"Mother, no matter how many books Chengze has read, he still hasn't read as much as Old Six. Isn't he just as frivolous and superficial?"

"Alright! You don't even know how to compare the good things, but you actually compare these bad things."

"Uh……"

"Alright! Chengze, you should leave! Your presence will disturb me while I'm reading."

"Yes! Mother, Chengze will take his leave."

At this time, the second prince Li Chengze was undoubtedly very excited. He thought he had finally found Suning's weakness. You know, he had wanted to win over Suning for a long time.

So the Second Prince Li Chengze immediately and secretly found the eldest princess Li Yunrui, "Aunt, Chengze needs your help."

"Chengze, you tell me first."

"Chengze has always wanted to win over Lao Liu, but unfortunately this guy has never given me face from the beginning to the end. This time, since I have caught his extremely lustful personality, Chengze decided to take the opportunity to make some good use of it."

"Yeah, that makes sense! So what are your plans?"

"Chengze heard that there's a famous courtesan named Si Lili in Kyoto recently, so I'd like to ask Auntie to buy her and place her by Lao Liu's side."

"No! This Si Lili's identity is not simple. She is an intelligence spy sent to Kyoto by Northern Qi."

"Aunt, Chengze naturally understands these things, but don't you think it would be more interesting this way?"

"Are you talking about impeaching Sixth Prince Li Chengning for colluding with Northern Qi spies?"

"That's right! Only those who have leverage over us can be reused."

"Okay! This is easy! I'll take care of the rest."

"Chengze thanks auntie."

"Chengze, my aunt has a headache again. I'll need your help to massage it from now on."

"Yes! Auntie."

The true relationship between the Second Prince Li Chengze and the Eldest Princess Li Yunrui is extremely secretive. People all over the world think that the Eldest Princess Li Yunrui is a member of the Crown Prince Li Chengqian's party, but they don't know that these are just smokescreens deliberately released by Li Chengze and Li Yunrui.
