Movies and TV: The heroine of the blind date

Emperor Qing put down the bow and arrow in his hand. He originally thought that the crown prince was using Fan Ruoruo's brother-sister card to obtain financial power in the internal treasury, but unexpectedly withdrew it again. This was really beyond his expectation.

"I haven't found out anything else."

Eunuch Hou didn't say everything.

…………

East Palace

Knowing how many eyes were staring at him, Li Chengqian would stop when he was joking.

In the past two years, Li Chengqian has spent less time attending classes in the Shangshufang and more time dealing with government affairs arranged by Emperor Qing.

At this time, he had just finished writing a memorial when Fan Ruoruo arrived with a bowl of millet soup.

"Your Highness"

"Now that Ruoruo is back, don't blame me for breaking my promise, right?"

Li Chengqian put down the paper and pen and stood up.

"It is Ruoruo who is willful and has made things difficult for Your Highness."

In this world where men are superior to women and both parties are of the same status, Fan Ruoruo is a smart person, so how could she dare to blame Li Chengqian?

"You didn't choose a good time to return home this time, but I can't blame you. I didn't expect it at the beginning."

"Because of my brother?"

"Because of the financial power of the internal treasury."

Since she is his bedmate and someone he can trust absolutely, Li Chengqian feels that there are some things he still needs to explain to Fan Ruoruo.

"Your Highness the Princess?"

Fan Ruoruo was very smart. As soon as Li Chengqian gave the first hint, she guessed the mastermind behind the targeting of her brother and herself today.

"Power is something that fascinates people. My aunt has held the financial power of the inner treasury for more than ten years, but my father asked her to release power all of a sudden, but she naturally refused; but she couldn't hold back my father, but she blamed you and elder brother."

"So the incident at Yishiju today was also planned by Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"She is my elder, so I can't confront her directly. So I asked my father to let my elder brother and Wan'er meet. If they are attracted to each other, I think my aunt will be more considerate when targeting my elder brother."

Li Chengqian told the purpose of arranging a meeting between Fan Xian and Lin Wan'er.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Fan Ruoruo quickly expressed her gratitude.

"Ruoruo, the maids sent by my father, the queen mother, and the queen mother..."

"Your Highness, you don't need to explain to me. Ruoruo is not a jealous person. As long as Your Highness has me in his heart, I don't care how many women there are in the East Palace."

That’s right, your attitude is exactly what I want; Li Chengqian was very satisfied with Fan Ruoruo’s statement.

…………

Even without Fan Ruoruo's company, Fan Xian still arrived at the poetry meeting at Prince Jing's Mansion on time.

If a time traveler goes to ancient times and does not deliberately restrain himself, he will really be like a firefly in the dark night.

As soon as the poetry reading ended, the poem "Climbing the High Tower" that Fan Xian moved began to spread widely in Kyoto.

…………

Cining Palace

Although the Queen Mother is old, it does not stop her from gossiping.

"I am always a guest in a sad autumn thousands of miles away, and I am alone on the stage after a hundred years of illness. It is a good poem, but it is too decadent."

People in the royal family may not necessarily be able to write good poems, but most of them understand poetry, and the empress dowager is no exception.

"The Queen Mother said that this poem was copied by Fan Xian."

Just as he was thinking about how to ruin Fan Xian's reputation, Li Yunrui quickly followed up.

"I didn't say that. I should have made it clear to you last time. No one can change what His Majesty has decided."

Knowing what Li Yunrui was thinking, the Queen Mother shattered her fantasy without any hesitation.

"Empress Dowager, His Majesty did not say that Wan'er must marry Fan Xian."

"I know about this. You dragged Cheng Qian to ask the emperor to let Wan'er and Fan Xian meet and let them decide the marriage themselves. It's ridiculous."

The empress dowager is old and should be kinder, but she is extremely particular about rules and hierarchy, making it difficult for people to get close to her.

"Queen Mother..."

"You don't need to talk to me, since the Holy Majesty said to let them meet, then meet once; it's just that you have to know about this marriage, don't make things difficult for Cheng Qian, and don't make it difficult for the Holy Majesty."

The Queen Mother warned Li Yunrui.

"Empress Dowager, the Crown Prince and Crown Princess request an audience."

“Call Them In”

Although the Queen Mother was a member of the royal family, she was also an old person; as old people, it was inevitable that there would be generations of relatives. Unlike her who was critical of Li Yunrui, she truly liked her grandson Li Chengqian.

"Grandson (grandson's wife)

Greetings to the Imperial Grandmother

Unlike the first time Fan Xian met the old lady, Li Chengqian and Fan Ruoruo kowtowed to her very respectfully.

"Everyone, get up."

There is no family affection in the royal family, but people do have feelings after all; the Queen Mother has always had a wish, which is not to see any bloodshed in the royal family during her lifetime.

Most wishes are difficult to realize, just like when Li Chengqian was assassinated in the western suburbs two years ago. The empress dowager didn't know that this was Li Chengqian's own director and act. In her eyes, this was the beginning of a new round of bloodshed in the royal family.

"Thank you, Grandmother"

Fan Ruoruo said that Fan Xian was a man as handsome as jade and a peerless young man in the world; the same was true for Li Chengqian; just looking at his face gave people a feeling of wanting to get close to him.

"Aunt is here too."

No matter how reluctant they are, Li Yunrui is still their elder, so Li Chengqian and Fan Ruoruo still have to greet her.

"Okay, sit down, Cheng Qian, you come to see the Imperial Grandmother at this time, is there something wrong?"

The Queen Mother was a little afraid that Li Chengqian was instigated by Li Yunrui to talk to her about Lin Wan'er's marriage; she dared to slap her daughter's face, but she dared not slap her grandson's face; this was the man who would become the emperor in the future, wouldn't she feel uncomfortable slapping him in the face?

"Replying to the Imperial Grandmother, it was Ruoruo. She suddenly had an idea and asked the craftsmen to make something, saying that she wanted to present it to the Imperial Grandmother."

"Oh, Ruoruo has something to present to me, so why don't you bring it up quickly?"

When the old lady heard that it was not what she was worried about, a smile immediately appeared on her face.

"What is this?"

The Queen Mother took the thing that Fan Ruoruo asked Hong Siyang to present to her and asked curiously.

"My dear grandmother, this thing is called glasses. Wearing it will help you see things more clearly."

Fan Ruoruo has listened to countless stories told by Fan Xian since she was a child; with Li Chengqian's conscious guidance, this pair of reading glasses came into being based on her creative ideas.

"How do I wear this? Ruoruo, can you come forward and teach me?"

This problem exists in all old age, even in wealthy families. The Queen Mother has been feeling a little blurry-eyed lately, and when she heard that glasses could have such an effect, she immediately became interested.

Fan Ruoruo was powerless and considering her status, Hong Siyang would naturally not stop her if she stepped forward.

"It really became clear, good thing, Ruoruo, you have a heart."

The empress dowager was very satisfied with her granddaughter-in-law who had once saved her grandson's life, not to mention that she had accepted her gift today.

"As long as the Empress Dowager is satisfied."

You should be soft-hearted when you receive something from someone, and you should be grateful when you receive something from someone. Now that you have accepted my things, you can't continue to cause trouble for me.

Not only to the Empress Dowager, today Li Chengqian accompanied Fan Ruoruo to deliver gifts one by one, first to Emperor Qing, then here, and next they will go to the Queen.

Chapter 218: Going sideways

Fan Ruoruo's admission of weakness made the three giants in the palace have a better impression of her; she is worthy of being the legitimate daughter of Si Nanbo's family, she understands the rules and knows when to advance and retreat.

The three giants were satisfied, but Li Yunrui was unhappy; Fan Ruoruo did not give her a gift, not because she was greedy for those things, but because it was an attitude; the little girl was clearly declaring war on her.

Snapped

I still don't feel relieved after breaking the cup.

"Hmph, tell Wanqiu and Wanqing to take the message and ask them to serve the Crown Prince well and give our Crown Princess some work."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Li Yunrui thought that she could take revenge on Fan Ruoruo in this way, but she didn't know that the Fu sisters, whom she had placed high hopes on, were not having an easy time in the East Palace either.

Ruoruo is not a jealous person, who would believe this?

It's not easy to take action against the people sent by the emperor, the empress dowager, and the queen, but can't I do anything about your people?

Do you really think that I, Fan Ruoruo, have no temper?

"Here are six volumes of The Dream of the Red Chamber, which is the favorite book of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. However, the font of the printed version is not beautiful enough. You two can each take three volumes and help copy them. Don't make any mistakes. I will present it to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince tomorrow morning."

If you dare to compete for my favor, I will kill you.

There is a saying in modern times that a higher-ranking official can crush someone to death, let alone in the Qing Dynasty; what can Fu Wanqiu and Fu Wanqing do but accept it with a pinch of their noses.

Li Chengqian?

Not to mention that he doesn't know about this, even if he knew, he wouldn't intervene. If you two don't fight, how can I enjoy the blessing of having two wives?

The Dream of the Red Chamber is truly a strange book. Confucian scholars see the Book of Changes, Taoists see lewdness, talented men see love, revolutionaries see the expulsion of the Manchus, and gossipers see the secret affairs of the imperial palace.

In the East Palace study, Fan Ruoruo sat on Li Chengqian's lap and watched "A Dream of Red Mansions" together.

Jia Baoyu experienced sex for the first time, and Granny Liu entered the Grand View Garden.

"Your Highness..."

After reading for a while, the two of them were no longer paying attention to the book.

"What's wrong with Ruoruo?"

Fan Ruoruo's face was full of lust, but Li Chengqian pretended not to know.

"It's late at night, let's go to bed early."

"Is it very late? It's only the 10 o'clock in the evening."

"Your Highness..."

The little girl let go of her reserve and snuggled into Li Chengqian's arms, their faces pressed tightly together.

It really is true that only when there is competition there is pressure, and only when there is pressure there is motivation. That night, Li Chengqian discovered that there was infinite potential in Fan Ruoruo's petite body.

The spring night is short and the day is high, and since then the king will not go to court early.

Although it hadn't come to that, the two of them did get up a little later than usual the next day.

"Your Highness, the governor of Jingdu Prefecture, Mei, has sent a message saying that the son of the Minister of Rites, Guo Baokun, has sued Mr. Fan Xian of the Sinan family. The two will go to court today."

As soon as the two of them got up, they heard Qian Chunqiang's report from outside the house.

"Your Highness, my brother has always been kind to others, and he has just arrived in Kyoto. There must be a misunderstanding. Yes, Guo Baokun is the eldest princess's man, and my brother must have been set up by them."

The maid helped her up weakly, which was a sign of her newly received the emperor's favor. Just by looking at Fan Ruoruo's current appearance, Li Chengqian knew why so many loyal ministers and generals had fallen under the emperor's will throughout history.

Guo Baokun is not a good person, but your brother is definitely not a good person either. Li Chengqian didn't say this in the end.

"Roruo, don't worry. Just because Fan Xian is your elder brother, I can't let him get into trouble in Kyoto. I will write a letter right now and ask the Guo family to withdraw the lawsuit."

One is the prince's tutor, and the other is the princess's elder brother. It is inappropriate for them to have a lawsuit in Kyoto. Li Chengqian did not intend to let others see this joke.

.........

郭府

As soon as Qian Chunqiang arrived, Guo Youzhi knew that this lawsuit would be difficult to win.

"Eunuch Qian, it's not that I don't give the Crown Princess face, it's just that Fan Xian has gone too far. Look, he has made my son look like this..."

In front of Qian Chunqiang, Guo Youzhi had someone carry out a mummy.
