Chapter 128 Emperor Qing: Li Changan! Why are you touching my throne? (13)

When Li Changan's convoy entered the city, it separated from Zhan Pianpian's convoy.

Before the wedding, Zhan Pianpian cannot live in the Prince Yong's Mansion, and the Taichang Temple will arrange a special accommodation for her.

Li Changan did not go back to the palace directly, but went to the house of Fan Ruoruo's grandfather.

Fan Ruoruo's grandfather is a hereditary marquis of Qing Kingdom. Although he is not powerful, he is rich and worry-free.

"Prince Yong is coming!"

Following the butler's call, Fan Ruoruo's grandfather and several uncles came to the lobby to pay their respects.

Fan Ruoruo came out from the inner hall, and without caring about the presence of so many people, she threw herself into Li Changan's arms, crying.

Li Changan asked the kneeling people to stand up, and then said to everyone, "I will take Ruoruo away today. Thank you for taking care of Ruoruo these days."

Fan Ruoruo's grandfather wiped his tears and said, "Your Highness, what are you talking about? Ruoruo is my granddaughter."

"I am ashamed that I only recently learned the real cause of my daughter's death. Fan Jian is truly a ruthless person!"

Li Changan took Fan Ruoruo's hand and said, "Since ancient times, it has been difficult for an honest official to settle family disputes."

"I will not interfere in the affairs of the Fan family, but I will support all of Ruoruo's decisions."

"Please rest assured, old man. With me here, even if Si Nanbo is favored by His Majesty, don't think of bullying Ruoruo again!"

Grandfather Fan Ruoruo said gratefully again, "My whole family thanks His Royal Highness Prince Yong!"

Afterwards, Fan Ruoruo got on Li Changan's carriage.

"Ruoruo, you will live in the Wang Mansion from now on. If you don't want to go back to the Fan Mansion, don't go back."

Fan Ruoruo said sadly, "Your Highness, my father killed my brother and indirectly killed my mother."

"But he is my biological father who raised me. I can't kill him to avenge my mother and brother."

Li Changan could imagine that Fan Ruoruo had been struggling with this issue recently.

"Ruoruo, I'm glad that you can find out the cause of your mother and brother's death by yourself."

"As for Fan Jian, whatever you do is right. If you want to kill Fan Jian, I can help you. If you want to have no contact with him forever, I also support you."

"Like I just said, no matter what, Fan Jian will never force you to do anything in the name of your father."

In the original novel, Fan Jian had a plan. If Fan Xian couldn't find a wife, he would marry Fan Ruoruo to Fan Xian.

Li Changan couldn't understand the strange train of thought that would allow him to sacrifice not only his son but also his daughter.

Fan Ruoruo said gratefully, "Thank you, Your Highness, but... now I no longer consider myself the daughter of Lord Si Nan."

Li Changan held Fan Ruoruo in his arms and said, "Since you were one year old, I have never regarded you as Fan Jian's daughter."

"The calligraphy and paintings I gave you were all given directly to you. I never asked you to pass them on to Fan Jian."

"Whether you are the earl's daughter or not, you are my king's princess."

Fan Ruoruo said with emotion, "Your Highness, you are so kind!"

When Li Changan went to pick up Fan Ruoruo, Fan Xian was directly recruited into the palace by Emperor Qing.

Emperor Qing and Chen Pingping asked Sean about the secret in detail.

Fan Xian told Sean all of his last words in detail.

After listening to Fan Xian's words, Chen Pingping said slowly, "It turns out that Xiao Ye came out of the temple."

"Before he met us, he also met Sean and Ku He."

Emperor Qing looked far to the north, "The Far North! The temple is in the Far North!"

"But even if we know the location, it will be very difficult to send people to find the temple."

Fan Xian also said, "That's true. Even if we send someone to walk the same route again, it would be hard to find that they have the exact same route as Sean Kuhe."

Although Emperor Qing said this, he didn't think so in his heart.

What he was thinking was that after he eliminated the threats from other grandmasters and Wuzhu and Barrett, with his strength as a grandmaster, he would have no problem finding the temple!

"Fan Xian, don't tell anyone else about the temple except me and Dean Chen."

"Come with me, Chen Pingping, and push yourself back."

Chen Pingping smiled like an auntie, "I obey your command."

When Emperor Qing and Fan Xian left, the smile on Chen Pingping's face disappeared instantly.

As smart as he was, he certainly guessed what Emperor Qing wanted Fan Xian to do.

"His Majesty is very wary of the magical weapons left behind by Wu Zhu and the young lady. He must firmly win over Fan Xian in order to feel safe."

"Your Majesty, who is hypocritical and vicious, must be pretending to have deep feelings for Xiao Ye in order to gain Fan Xian's trust."

"Your Majesty, it's really disgusting that you act like this!"

"Your brother Li Changan is back, and he seems to have ambitions now!"

"That's great! Let the Li family's infighting become even more intense!"

In an attic in the harem.

Emperor Qing took Fan Xian to the top floor and came to a room that no one had set foot in for a long time.

On the wall of the room hung a portrait of a woman carrying a box on her back. It was Ye Qingmei's portrait.

"You are still so young, but I am old."

Emperor Qing put on an affectionate expression and said to Fan Xian, "Take a good look. This is the only portrait of your mother that was left behind."

This was the first time Fan Xian saw the portrait of Ye Qingmei, the woman who once stirred up the world.

At this time, Fan Xian had not yet experienced many twists and turns like in the original drama, but he was almost moved by Emperor Qing's deep affection.

Because he had no experience in court struggles, he knew very little about his physiologist father.

In fact, this Emperor Qing, whose friendship was half true and half false, was the culprit who killed Ye Qingmei.

"Your Majesty, why does my mother look so young in the portrait?"

Emperor Qing looked at the portrait affectionately and said, "I painted it when I first met her, so of course she is young."

Fan Xian asked again, "Does this portrait look like her?"

Emperor Qing frowned and said, "Not as pretty as her!"

After Fan Xian stared for a long time, Emperor Qing called him to the window.

Emperor Qing pointed to the chrysanthemums in the nursery outside the window and said, "Look at those chrysanthemums. They were planted by your mother herself."

"The chrysanthemums that are brought to the Royal Family's Hanging Temple every three years are all from here!"

Fan Xian asked curiously, "Did you take her with you to the flower viewing event every three years?"

Emperor Qing smiled amiably and said, "Yes, because she likes it! She likes everything that is alive!"

Fan Xian asked awkwardly, "Do you miss her a lot?"

Emperor Qing nodded, "So, I still plan to hand over the inner treasury to you."

"You successfully brought Yan Bingyun back this time. At the family dinner tonight, in front of Prince Yong and the other princes, I will confer a title on you."

"Once Wan'er has finished investigating the deficit, I will find a way to get you to deal with it and deal with the Ming family!"

"As long as you handle it properly, I will transfer the inner treasury from Wan'er to you."

"In this world, only you are worthy of being in charge of the inner treasury, because you are her flesh and blood!"

Having said so much, Emperor Qing was still showing his favor to Fan Xian.

"Don't blame me for leaving you in Danzhou for so many years." "In the plan against Sean, I did treat you as a chess piece, but it was a chess piece that was rising!"

"I want you to be Daqing's powerful and lonely minister, so you must go through these trials, and these are just the beginning!"

At this time, Emperor Qing had almost admitted that he was Fan Xian's biological father.

Fan Xian tried to ask, "Your Majesty, I don't know... who my father is now?"

Emperor Qing crossed his arms and smiled warmly, "Do you still need to ask?"

Fan Xian was a little panicked because Emperor Qing was a little too kind, which was not normal!
However, Fan Xian didn't know why he was panicking, he just felt uneasy.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, I still don't know when I was born?"

Emperor Qing smiled and said, "The eighteenth day of the first lunar month!"

Fan Xian forced a smile and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I finally have a birthday."

Emperor Qing patted Fan Xian on the shoulder and began to encourage him.

"You have done a good job in the Northern Qi mission. Next, I will take over the First Division of the Inspection Institute."

"Using my status as a host, I can investigate a group of corrupt officials and get some good things done."

"Then you can go to Jiangnan and see what your mother left behind for the world!"

"Come on, follow me to the family dinner!"

Fan Xian followed Emperor Qing closely, trying to cover up his nervousness with his hurried footsteps.

Soon, the two arrived at the luxurious balcony where they had had a family dinner before leaving Northern Qi.

Fan Xian saw from afar a broad-shouldered, slim-waisted, handsome figure standing next to Emperor Qing's throne.

The man placed his hands on the throne and stared at it with interest.

Needless to say, apart from Li Changan, whose behavior has become increasingly outrageous recently, there is no one else to think of!
Emperor Qing saw it from a distance, but just chuckled.

Only when he got closer did he shout, "Li Changan, why are you touching my throne?"

"What's the matter? You've become addicted to sitting on the throne of the Emperor of Northern Qi!"

Hearing Emperor Qing's voice, the eunuch hurriedly shouted, "Your Majesty has arrived!"

The prince, who was originally standing straight, suddenly bent over and changed his posture in an instant.

The smooth movements made Li Chengze grimace. This guy's acting ability is getting stronger and stronger!
"See Your Majesty!"

Several people saluted Emperor Qing, but Emperor Qing was still staring at Li Changan.

"Do you want to sit side by side with the emperor like you did in Northern Qi?"

Li Changan nodded and said, "Today is a family dinner. Your Majesty and I are elders, so it's fine for us to sit side by side!"

After seeing Li Changan touching the throne and speaking to Emperor Qing in this way, Li Chengqian felt instantly balanced.

It’s nothing to not meet the prince at the city gate. After Uncle Yong went to Northern Qi, he became incredibly courageous!

Li Changan has already broken through to the Grandmaster level. Although he cannot kill Emperor Qing, he can definitely force him to flee in embarrassment.

So his idea was to first participate in the court struggle according to his own plan.

The second prince, the crown prince, Li Yunrui, Chen Pingping and others will surely fall at his feet one by one.

During this process, Li Changan, who has become a grandmaster, will not give face to anyone.

If Emperor Qing used his power to suppress others and obstruct Li Changan's rise, then Li Changan would simply reveal his status as a grandmaster and take his close associates to Western Qin to start a new business.

If Emperor Qing is broad-minded enough, knows Li Changan's role in Daqing, and tacitly approves or supports Li Changan's rise, then Li Changan would not mind defeating his opponents step by step and eventually sidelining Emperor Qing.

Emperor Qing snorted coldly and said to Eunuch Hou, "Place Prince Yong's seat next to me. I'll see what tricks he can come up with!"

Upon hearing Emperor Qing’s indulgence, the Crown Prince and the Second Prince were stunned!

When did this usually stern father become so tolerant!

Fan Xian's emotional contrast was smaller because he had just experienced the gentle side of Emperor Qing.

Emperor Qing sat on the throne and said casually, "Everyone, take a seat!"

"Do you think I am so indulgent to Prince Yong?"

"Then I would like to ask you, who among you can write 300 poems in one night? Who can overthrow the two most powerful officials of Northern Qi in one night?"

"Who can go straight to Huanglong and burn down the Northern Qi Zhenfusi Yamen? Who can sit on the throne of the Northern Qi emperor openly!"

"If any of you can do this, you can sit next to me!"

Li Changan sat side by side with Emperor Qing with peace of mind, not feeling restrained or nervous at all.

Several princes were even more puzzled as to how Li Changan managed to remain calm.

No matter how great your achievements are, shouldn't you be subconsciously nervous and fearful when sitting with the almighty emperor?

Only Fan Xian secretly took a bite of the dish. He knew in his heart that for a time traveler, there was no such thing as awe for the imperial power.

"Your Majesty, you are too kind. These are just a piece of cake. Northern Qi is in chaos and looks strong but is weak inside."

"If it weren't for that old monster Ku He, I might have destroyed Northern Qi when I went there this time."

Hearing Li Changan's words, Emperor Qing suddenly sneered.

"Li Changan, you seem to be getting too arrogant! If I give you some color, you'll start a dyeing factory!"

"I praised you a few words, and you became so immodest. This will teach your nephews bad lessons!"

Li Changan pointed at his nephews and said, "The eldest brother can never be taught badly, and the crown prince can never be taught well."

"The second child has been forced to become bad, and the third child is still young and only knows how to eat. He doesn't understand what we say at all. No matter how Fan Xian teaches him, he won't listen."

Emperor Qing and the other princes are now gradually getting used to Li Changan's frankness and directness.

Emperor Qing sneered repeatedly and glanced at his sons one by one. Suddenly, he felt that what Li Changan said was right.

"Prince Yong just said it casually. You don't need to explain. Whoever explains will be guilty."

Then he said to the eldest prince, "Li Chengru, you look very energetic!"

Li Chengru said respectfully, "I haven't seen you for many years. I hope your father is in good health!"

Emperor Qing nodded and said, "You won't die!"

Several princes took their seats and the family banquet officially began.

After Fan Xian finished describing the process of taking Yan Bingyun back, Emperor Qing turned the topic to Li Changan's heroic deeds in Northern Qi.

"Prince Yong, you burned down the Northern Qi Pacification Office. Did you manage to get some of the confidential information out of it?"

Li Changan said, "There are indeed some. I plan to report this separately to Your Majesty together with the matters concerning the Junshan Society."

Emperor Qing took a bite of the food and said, "Everyone here is one of us. If there is any major progress, it's okay to talk about it here."

Li Changan put down his chopsticks. He really didn't expect that Emperor Qing would cooperate with him so well.

He had originally planned to ignore Emperor Qing's attitude and fire directly, but now Emperor Qing actually gave him the opportunity.

"Your Majesty, I have discovered a shocking secret in the confidential information of the Royal Guards!"

"There is a major smuggling activity in the Neiku, the economic pillar of Daqing!"

"Someone is reselling the goods in the warehouse without checking the accounts and making huge profits!"

After hearing what Li Changan said, Li Chengze's legs suddenly went weak and he almost fell to his knees.

Uncle Prince Yong, we have a good relationship, why are you coming to me?
