"I didn't believe it at first, but I did later! To be honest, I met a girl who eats chicken legs, I fell in love with her, and I want to marry her!"

"But Father and Lord Si Nan asked you to marry Wan'er!"

Upon hearing this, Fan Xian said seriously, "I won't agree to this marriage! Since I want to get engaged, I naturally won't accept the inner treasury. That way, the Crown Prince and the Third Prince won't target me!"

After hearing this, Li Chengze laughed and said, "How are you going to cancel the engagement that was appointed by our father?"

"I don't know, let's give it a try!" Fan Xian said casually, "Your Highness can wait and see!"

When Li Chengze heard this, he was stunned for a while, and then suddenly burst into laughter!

Fan Xian asked in confusion, "Why is your Highness laughing?"

Li Chengze shook his head and said, "Fan Xian, you know what? You and the Third Brother are becoming more and more alike! The Third Brother also considered disobeying the imperial order back then!"

His attitude then was almost exactly the same as yours now!"

Upon hearing this, Fan Xian was surprised and asked, "There's such a thing. Did the Third Prince succeed?"

Li Chengze said, "If he had succeeded, I wouldn't be here trying to persuade you! Fan Xian, believe me, you can't succeed in breaking off the engagement!"

Upon hearing this, Fan Xian said without hesitation, "Even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance, I'll try!"

Li Chengze: "......"

Patting Fan Xian on the shoulder, Li Chengze sighed and stood up.

Pick up "Dream of Red Mansions", put on your shoes and leave.

"Fan Xian, I wish you good luck!"

Chapter 64: Wang Qinian dislikes Fan Xian? Li Chengyuan goes to Liujing River again!

After the Second Prince left, Fan Xian continued to wander around the backyard of Prince Jing's Mansion, and then he met his chicken leg girl.

At the same time, in the back garden of the Daqing Imperial Palace.

Emperor Qing was feeding the fish by the lake when Eunuch Hou ran over with small steps, a look of surprise on his face, holding a stack of papers in his hands!

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! The Third Prince and Master Fan wrote three stunning poems in a row at the poetry gathering!"

Emperor Qing asked in surprise, "Three poems? Fan Xian wrote two?"

"No, it was the Third Prince who wrote two poems! At the poetry gathering, Master Fan wrote the poem first. After he finished, the Third Prince's maid, Qingniao, immediately sent Master Fan's poem back to Prince Li's mansion by carrier pigeon.

Afterwards, Qingniao read out the Third Prince's words in public, and Fan Xian admitted defeat in public!

Then at this moment, the carrier pigeon from Prince Li's mansion flew back again.

"There's something the Third Prince just wrote on it, saying it's for Fan Xian!"

"Fan Xian lost?" Emperor Qing was stunned for a moment, then said, "Read Fan Xian's poem first!"

"Yes!"

Eunuch Hou immediately began to recite "Climbing the High Mountain"!

After hearing this, Emperor Qing was somewhat stunned and said, "This is a great poem! Although it has a bit of a decadent tone, it is definitely a masterpiece that is rarely seen in a century. Fan Xian wrote such a poem, and yet he still lost?"

Eunuch Hou laughed and said, "Your Majesty, that's because the Third Prince's words are better!"

"Really?" Emperor Qing was genuinely curious. "Read it to me!"

"Yes!"

Eunuch Hou took out another piece of paper and began to read.

"The Yangtze River rolls eastward, its waves washing away heroes. Success and failure are all in vain. The green mountains remain, the sunsets turn red again. The white-haired fisherman and woodcutter on the riverbank are accustomed to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze. A pot of muddy wine brings joy to our reunion. So many things in the past and present, all turned into jokes!"

After hearing this, Emperor Qing remained silent!

After a long pause, he sighed leisurely, "A thousand miles of sorrowful autumn! A hundred years of illness! So many events from ancient times to the present, all turned into jokes! Third Brother is so courageous. It's a pity that Fan Xian lost, but it wasn't unfair!"

"Yes!" Eunuch Hou said, "People outside are saying that the Third Prince and Fan Xian are evenly matched, the twin pillars of the Qing Kingdom!"

"The two pillars of Qing?" Emperor Qing was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "They are indeed the two pillars of Qing!"

"Your Majesty, here's another poem. It's a poem written by the Third Prince to comment on Master Fan's poem 'Climbing the Heights'!"

"Read!"

"Yes!" Eunuch Hou coughed lightly, then recited: "When I was young, I didn't know the taste of sorrow, I loved the upper floors. I loved the upper floors, so I forced myself to express sorrow in order to compose new poems. Now I know the taste of sorrow, I want to speak but I can't. I want to speak but I can't, but I say that the cool weather makes autumn beautiful!"

"What a wonderful autumn! What a wonderful autumn!" Emperor Qing suddenly laughed. "The twin pillars of Qing Kingdom, they are absolutely right!"

"Your Majesty, after Master Fan admitted defeat, he went to the backyard to meet the Second Prince. Because the Second Prince was guarded by swordsmen, we couldn't get close. We couldn't hear what they said!"

"Where is the prince?"

"Visiting Her Royal Highness the Princess at Guangxin Palace!"

Emperor Qing sneered, "He'll be courteous then! Give him these three poems! And tell him about Prince Jing's Mansion, too!"

"Yes!"

Eunuch Hou quietly withdrew.

Emperor Qing looked at the tranquil lake and scattered another handful of fish food, muttering silently, "The two pillars of the empire, if they are separated, the world will be at peace; if they are united, heaven and earth will not tolerate them!"

...

Guangxin Palace!

After reading the three poems, Li Yunrui's expression was very wonderful, and he said with a smile on his face:

"Haha, I originally thought that Qing Kingdom was blessed by heaven for having a Li Chengyuan!

I didn’t expect that there is now another rising star named Fan Xian!

It seems that our Qing Kingdom is going to prosper!"

The prince also finished reading the poem and said, "Aunt, Fan Xian is so talented. It's not a grievance for Wan'er to marry him!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yunrui said calmly, "Your Majesty said that the Second Prince is eager to seek talented people and is currently meeting with Fan Xian at Prince Jing's residence!"

The prince nodded and said, "Not surprising. The second brother said yesterday that he wanted to win over Fan Xian!"

"What about you?" Li Yunrui looked at the prince.

The prince was silent for a moment before saying, "Of course I want to win him over, but my aunt hates him, so I can only suppress him!"

Li Yunrui laughed and said, "I'm not the only one who hates him. Doesn't the third brother hate him as well?"

"Third brother?" The prince shook his head. "Third brother has a strange personality. It's hard to understand. No one can figure out his true thoughts!"

"Yes!" Li Yunrui said, "He is indeed hard to guess.

But it doesn’t matter. Since I can’t guess it, I won’t guess it.

Just let him do things according to our ideas!"

The prince was puzzled when he heard this and asked, "What does aunt mean?"

Li Yunrui smiled and didn't answer, but gestured with his hand.

"Have some tea!"

......

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for achieving "Fan Xian's First Defeat in a Literary Battle." Reward: 5 Enlightenment Pills!]

Prince Li’s Mansion, Chunxiao Tower.

Li Chengyuan, who was drinking tea with Wang Qinian, suddenly heard the system prompt sound.

Fan Xian loses his first literary duel?

Is there such an achievement in the system?

Li Chengyuan really didn’t notice it before!

But it's good to get rewards.

And the reward is the Enlightenment Pill he wants most!

This time his swordsmanship can also be improved to a superb level!

"Your Highness? Your Highness?"

Seeing Li Chengyuan suddenly become dazed, Wang Qinian called out anxiously.

"What?" Li Chengyuan came back to his senses and asked.

Wang Qinian said anxiously, "Hey, my Lord, please stop being dazed! Could you give me some advice?"

Li Chengyuan was stunned and asked, "What's your idea?"

Wang Qinian said with a bitter face, "What do you think? It seems that all the things I said just now were in vain?"

"You spoke too fast just now, I didn't hear clearly, please say it again!"

"Alright! Please listen carefully this time!" Wang Qinian explained again: "Your Highness, this is the case. We used to have a colleague in the Inspection Office named Teng Zijing..."

"I just heard about Teng Zijing's death. Please continue!"

"Oh! Then let me continue!" Wang Qinian licked his lips and continued, "After Teng Zijing was killed by Master Fan, out of kindness, I found a place outside the city to settle Teng Zijing's wife and children!

I thought the matter was over.

But who would have known that just yesterday, that Mr. Fan suddenly came to me and wanted to investigate Teng Zijing's papers!

There was no important information in Teng Zijing's documents. The most important information was the whereabouts of his wife and children!

So I suspect that Mr. Fan might want to wipe out Teng Zijing's wife and children!

So now I am in a dilemma. Should I give him Teng Zijing's documents?

If I don’t give it to him, he has the badge of the inspector and I dare not disobey him.

Even if I gave it to him, I couldn't bear it. After all, those are two lives!

Don't you think I'm wrong, Your Highness, but isn't this Master Fan really too vicious?

This person is dead, yet he still doesn't let his family go?

You said before that he was a good person and asked me to assist him!
