The world of film and television begins from childhood

Zhou Xuanqing no longer refused and solemnly took the sandalwood box with both hands. Although he had not yet read the contents inside, he felt that he would definitely not be disappointed.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 838: The noisy Lin Chen and Ni Huang who knows the truth

Mei Changsu looked at the back of Mr. Zhou Xuanqing as he left with the sandalwood box in his arms, and a look of relief appeared on his face.

This time he used his previous connections and invited Mr. Zhou Xuanqing. In fact, he felt very guilty because he had disturbed Mr. Zhou's peace.

A respected Confucian scholar like Zhou Xuanqing was invited by him to engage in such power-struggle, which was really an insult to the reputation of Mr. Zhou Xuanqing.

He knew that Mr. Zhou was different from those who sought fame and reputation. Mr. Zhou was a true hermit. Writing books was his pursuit. He would never care about the power struggles in the court because he had seen through it all long ago.

Fortunately, he had a volume of Zhou Chen's "Works" - "The Great Learning". He had read this volume countless times and knew its value. Although it only had more than 2,000 words, it was definitely the most precious treasure for a Confucian scholar like Mr. Zhou.

"I never thought that a man as eccentric as Master Chen could actually create a book that was valued by both the Sect Master and Mr. Zhou."

Mei Changsu turned around and looked at Li Gang, who was in amazement, and whispered, "Even you can learn to use your brain, so why can't Xiaochen write a book?"

Li Gang was stunned: "Master, what do you mean? Are you saying that I didn't use my brain before? You are slandering me. I am the leader of Jiangzuo League after all. How could I not use my brain? I... Hey, Master, I haven't finished yet. Please listen to me."

Mei Changsu was too lazy to pay attention to him and was about to leave, but after taking a few steps, he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves and a familiar bell.

He slowly raised his head and saw a white figure running towards him at an extremely fast speed, which made his face change.

"metropolitan."

Mei Changsu looked at the figure approaching quickly and sighed: "Nihuang has been tracking down my identity recently. I'm afraid I can't hide my identity anymore. It's not just me. She seems to be suspicious of Xiaochen as well."

Li Gang said: "Master, if Princess Nihuang continues to investigate and pester us like this, it will probably cause us a lot of trouble."

Mei Changsu sighed, "If I really can't hide it anymore, I can only tell her. But if she knew the identities of Xiaochen and me, I'm afraid she would be even more miserable."

Li Gang knew what he meant, so he couldn't help but complain, "Sect Master, you shouldn't have let Master Chen go to the Southern Territory. Master Chen is the same. He knew the relationship between Princess Nihuang and you, but he still had to..."

"Shut up."

Mei Changsu suddenly shouted angrily, and then said with an unpleasant expression: "Don't say such things again in the future."

Li Gang was startled and immediately replied, "Yes, Master."

As she was speaking, Mu Nihuang had already arrived nearby on horseback at full speed.

…………

"When will the bright moon appear? I raise my cup to ask the sky. I wonder what year it is in the palace in heaven..."

The beautiful singing coupled with the brisk piano music created a perfect piece of music that seemed to add a bit of vitality to the huge courtyard.

But for Lin Chen, this was a painful torment.

When he heard the beautiful song, he pulled the quilt over his head in depression and curled up in the bed.

"Here it comes again, here it comes again. How stupid am I to do something like this? Oh my God, please let me die."

Originally, he just wanted to meet the famous Miss Wanbo and listen to her singing and playing the piano, so he dragged Zhou Chen along.

In fact, Zhou Chen did fulfill his wish. He met Miss Wanbo and heard her moving singing.

But the problem is, after arriving here, Zhou Chen, who was originally eager to return to Jinling, seemed to have completely forgotten about this matter, and indulged in the gentle country every day. If he didn't go to Zhou Chen to ask every day, Zhou Chen would not even come to see him.

These days, Zhou Chen has been with Miss Wanbo every day. During the day, they recite poems, talk about love, sing and play the zither, and drink tea. At night...

Although Lin Chen was educated and could pretend to be cultured, they were in pairs, talking sweet nothings to each other, and only had eyes for each other. If he rashly went over, it would be like he was interfering and was totally unnecessary.

He is the young master of Langya Pavilion, a handsome, suave and legendary man. How could he endure such humiliation?

So, for the next few days, he stayed in the yard where he lived. When he couldn't stand it anymore, he ran out for a walk, even though he would still be "critically attacked" when he came back at night.

So, he regretted it, he regretted it very much. This junior brother was really unreliable and had no sense of responsibility at all. Xiao Shu was still waiting for them in the capital, Nie Feng was still waiting for them to rescue him in the capital, but he was here, enjoying the harmony and love with his confidante.

Are brothers really less important than women?

"We must leave tomorrow. As a senior brother of this gentle land and a tomb for heroes, I cannot watch my junior brother waste away like this."

Lin Chen gritted his teeth and made a decision in his heart. He felt that if he continued to stay like this, Zhou Chen would definitely make him get into trouble.

In the courtyard, Zhou Chen stopped playing the piano, Wan Bo's dance slowly came to an end, and the singing also stopped.

A bright smile appeared on Zhou Chen's face. Wanbo was really talented. Both dancing and singing were outstanding. He could sing while dancing and grasp the dance steps and tunes accurately.

He has been through more than a dozen film and television worlds and has had many women. He has a great resistance to women, but the Wan Bo in front of him always makes him feel fascinated. He loves this woman from the bottom of his heart.

Especially since Wanbo didn't ask for anything from him, not promises, not status, not constant companionship, she was like an independent woman which is rare in modern times.

So although Wanbo looks like a weak and delicate woman, her character is not delicate at all. If they have not met, he can still restrain himself, but once they meet, he really wants to stay with her all the time and accompany her.

"Wanbo, I have settled down in Jinling. Will you come with me to Jinling to celebrate the New Year?"

Zhou Chen pulled Wanbo in front of him, helped her wipe the sweat from her forehead, and asked kindly.

Wanbo shook his head gently: "You have things to do in Jinling, so I won't hold you back. I stay here every year during the holidays to accompany my ancestors. I'm used to it and don't want to go to that bustling place in Jinling."

Although this place is very close to Jinling City and it only takes half a day to go there, she still doesn't want to go. She doesn't know how much trouble she will get into if she goes to Jinling.

Zhou Chen said softly: "The more you are like this, the more I can't bear to leave you."

Wan Bo said sensibly: "You don't have to worry about me. I've gotten used to it over the years. Zhou Lang, you are a man of great accomplishments. You can't stop because of me."

"You, I really wronged you by asking you to follow me."

Wanbo stared at Zhou Chen and said firmly: "For me, it is the greatest blessing to have someone who knows and loves me. I don't feel wronged at all."

Zhou Chen embraced her passionately, but still felt guilty in his heart. He knew he couldn't stay for much longer.

"If you encounter any problems in the future, send someone to find me in the capital, or go to the Jiangzuo League branch to find someone. They will help you."

"Well, I understand. Besides, with Qing'er here, even ordinary people in the martial arts world are no match for me. What's more, we have Uncle Xue and Aunt Wu. You don't have to worry about my safety."

Wanbo's reputation has spread throughout the world. For so many years, he has been able to live so freely. Naturally, he has his own abilities. The doorman Xue Bo and the housekeeper Aunt Wu were both masters in the past. Even the maid Qing'er beside him has been practicing martial arts since she was a child and is an expert.

Even Wanbo herself has some kung fu skills. Her delicate appearance is just a character setting. She is not really that delicate.

Two days later, under Lin Chen's impatient urging, Zhou Chen reluctantly said goodbye to Wanbo and set out on the journey back to Jinling.

The Qinhuai River is actually not far from Jinling City. The two of them were not in a hurry and arrived in Jinling City in half a day.

On the main road in Jinling City, Lin Chen walked unsteadily with a step that showed he didn't care about his relatives.

"Xiaochen, Junior Brother, I want to eat candied haws. Please buy me some candied haws."

"roll!"

Zhou Chen felt a chill, he really couldn't stand Lin Chen's behavior. Damn it, you are a thirty-year-old man, why are you acting like a delicate girl in front of me? Isn't it disgusting?

"Can you please be more normal and stop being disgusting?"

Lin Chen rolled his eyes: "I'm disgusting? Am I as disgusting as you? Do you know how I've been through these past few days? Do you know how much pressure I've been under and how much pain I've suppressed? I just asked you to buy me a candied haws, and you treat me like this. Why don't you think about how you treated me a few days ago?"

"You need to understand the situation. You are the ones who asked me to help you. I am not the one who volunteered to help you. If you don't treat me better, what can you do to me if I don't help you?"

Zhou Chen looked disgusted and said, "You are such a talent. I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen anyone as shameless as you."

"Don't talk nonsense, just tell me whether you want to buy it or not."

"Buy, buy, what else can I do when I meet someone like you?"

Zhou Chen had no choice but to buy it for him. However, when the old man selling the candied haws saw Zhou Chen and Lin Chen, two grown men, buying them together, his eyes suddenly became very strange. After Zhou Chen bought the candied haws, he quickly pulled Lin Chen away.

Seeing Lin Chen chewing candied haws like a little child, Zhou Chen felt even more disgusted.

"Please buy it yourself next time if you want to eat it, don't let me embarrass this person."

"I have no money."

"roll!"

…………

It took Zhou Chen two hours to bring Lin Chen, who was slow and asked for this and that, to the Su Mansion.

"Changsu lives here now? It's not that great."

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Go in quickly. I wasted so much time looking for you this time."

"Hey, Junior Brother, what you said is not right. Did I waste my time? Who is the one who stayed at Miss Wanbo's place and refused to leave?"

"It's me, what's wrong, any objection?"

"What's your attitude? You wasted time and you blamed it all on me, and I can't refute it?"

"Do you know what makes me most tired when I'm with you?"

"where?"

"Mouth, you talk too much when I'm with you. It's so annoying. I'm usually a quiet person, but my lips are almost worn out by all the talking."

"Haha, you don't talk much? Haha."

"Hehe, you little head."

Zhou Chen and Lin Chen walked into the Su Mansion noisily. The servants of the Su Mansion did not stop them when they saw Zhou Chen. Zhou Chen greeted them and came to the central courtyard where Mei Changsu lived.

Coming here is like going home. Zhou Chen entered the yard and went straight to Mei Changsu's room.

As soon as he reached the door, he heard voices from inside. Zhou Chen glanced at Li Gang at the door, and seeing that he didn't remind him, he knew he could come in, so he took Lin Chen directly into the room.

But the next moment, he paused after entering the room, then quickly turned around, and Lin Chen, who was following behind him, immediately grabbed him.

"Hey, what are you doing? Where are you going?"

Zhou Chen glared at him and said, "Let go."

Lin Chen was confused, but before he could ask, he heard Mei Changsu's voice inside.

"Brother Yu, Lin Chen, you are finally here."

Zhou Chen had no choice but to turn around and say to Mei Changsu inside: "I have found the person for you. If everything is fine, I will leave first."

Lin Chen grabbed him again and said, "Leave? Where are you going? You brought me here, where are you going now?"

Zhou Chen looked as if he wanted to kill Lin Chen. He didn't want to stay here, of course he had his own reasons, because there were other people in the room besides Mei Changsu.

Zhou Chen's strange behavior also attracted Lin Chen's attention. He looked inside and saw that there were three other people inside. Being smart, he immediately guessed that among these three people, there must be someone Zhou Chen didn't want to see or was afraid to see.

Mei Changsu said, "Come in."

Zhou Chen could only walk into the house with Lin Chen, then pretended to be calm and nodded to Xia Dong, Nie Feng and Mu Nihuang in the house.

The reason why he turned around and left as soon as he came in was because he saw Mu Nihuang in the room.

Mu Nihuang was also very surprised to see Zhou Chen come in, but when she saw Mei Changsu talking to Zhou Chen very naturally, she felt even more puzzled.

"Brother Lin Shu, what's wrong with him?"

Before she could ask any further questions, she suddenly realized the problem.

"He also knows about you. Is he in the same group with you?"

Mei Changsu nodded and said, "Yes, Brother Yu is my good friend, a friend of life and death. He knows everything about me."

Zhou Chen also understood at this time. It seemed that during the time he was away, Mu Nihuang still recognized Lin Shu, and the two of them recognized each other, so Mu Nihuang appeared here.

When Mu Nihuang heard Mei Changsu's words, her eyes changed and she asked again, "So it was you who ordered him to come to the Southern Territory to help me?"

Mei Changsu didn't say anything. It was indeed he who asked Zhou Chen to go there in the beginning, but what happened afterwards was beyond his control.

Mu Nihuang looked at Zhou Chen with complicated eyes. Her mood was very complicated at this moment. She found her brother Lin Shu from twelve years ago, but there was another person in her mind, and this person was Lin Shu's best friend.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became very strange. Even Lin Chen, who was always laughing, noticed something was wrong. He looked at Zhou Chen, Mei Changsu and Mu Nihuang strangely, as if he was watching a show.

Xia Dong also saw this strange scene and couldn't help but sigh.

"Xiao Shu, since Nihuang already knows so much, it's time to tell her Xiaochen's identity."

"identity?"

Mu Nihuang looked at Xia Dong with confusion. She now knew about Xia Dong and Nie Feng, and was happy for her good friend Xia Dong.

Mei Changsu nodded and said, "Nihuang, Brother Yu's real identity is actually Xiaochen, Zhouchen. He was like me, and was poisoned by the fire and cold poison in the battle of Meiling that year. In order to detoxify, he became what he is now."

"Zhou Chen?"

Mu Nihuang's face was filled with shock. This answer shocked her, but she was not panicked, because she had investigated Zhou Chen before and realized that Zhou Chen's identity was a bit strange.

Suddenly, she remembered what the Grand Empress Dowager had said when she met her at Yingfeng Tower. She realized belatedly that the Grand Empress Dowager had recognized not only Lin Shu, but Zhou Chen as well.
