Chapter 8 Fan Jian was furious!
Li Chengyun was taken away by Eunuch Hou, and there was a commotion in Zuixianju.

Fan Xian and Fan Sizhe felt that they could not stay any longer, so they left that romantic place and returned to the Fan Mansion.

As soon as they stepped into the mansion gate, a servant came and said, "Two young masters, the master of the house has summoned you."

Fan Xian and Fan Sizhe looked at each other and became suspicious, wondering why Fan Jian summoned them at this time.

In the past, Fan Jianfang would only show up at mealtimes.

The two men did not dare to delay and followed the servant.

Fan Xian saw Fan Jian and Fan Ruoruo standing side by side from a distance, and a sense of foreboding suddenly surged in his heart.

Could it be that the two of them already knew that he was involved in the brothel?
When he got closer and saw the expressions of the two men, he was sure that the matter had been exposed.

Isn't this too fast? !
Not long after Li Chengyun was taken away by Eunuch Hou, the news had already reached the Fan Mansion? !

Fan Xian felt a little embarrassed, but he did not stop.

Together with Fan Sizhe, they walked respectfully to Fan Jian and bowed deeply:
"Meet my father."

Fan Jian remained silent, staring at them with sharp eyes.

After a long while, he frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Where did you two come from?"

After these words were spoken, even Fan Sizhe suddenly realized that his visit to the brothel with Fan Xian had been exposed.

Fan Ruoruo was burning with anger and was cold as ice to Fan Xian. She didn't want to talk to him at this moment.

At this moment, she was extremely disappointed with Fan Xian.

I never expected that my brother, who usually kept himself clean, would one day indulge in beauty, and in such a romantic place.

What made it even more difficult for her to accept was that Fan Xian had said with certainty that he would go meet Li Chengyun to help her solve her marriage problems.

However, now it seems that he was just using this as an excuse to enjoy himself and hang out with playboys like Li Chengyun.

How could such a brother be worthy of her admiration in the past?
Fan Xian and Fan Sizhe lowered their heads and said nothing.

Seeing this, Fan Jian was furious. His face was gloomy and he shouted sternly:
"Your Majesty!"

Fan Sizhe and Fan Xian quickly knelt on the ground, showing no intention of resisting.

Seeing the two of them obey, Fan Jian's brows relaxed slightly, but his voice remained stern:
"Tell me, what's going on?"

"I've known for a long time that Fan Sizhe is a bastard. I'm not surprised that he's hanging out with the Sixth Prince."

"But Fan Xian, why would you go to that kind of place, and do it every day!"

Fan Jian's gaze fell on Fan Xian, his tone full of disappointment.

He sighed and continued, "Could it be that you have also become one of those people who are addicted to women? Do you also want to become a playboy like the Sixth Prince?!"

Fan Sizhe listened silently. He was used to Fan Jian's reprimands.

He planned to admit his mistake honestly after Fan Jian finished admonishing him in the hope of reducing his punishment.

After all, no matter how angry Fan Jian was, he would not be so cruel to his own son.

It was just a punishment of being beaten with a stick and kneeling for a few hours.

When the boss leaves the palace again, he can still be free and easy and continue to fool around!

Just as Fan Sizhe was about to speak.

Fan Xian took the initiative to speak. He was calm and composed, without any sign of panic.

He bowed deeply to Fan Jian and said:
"Father, I am not a womanizer. You should know that I have never been to a brothel, let alone been close to women."

"Everything I did was for Ruoruo."

When these words were spoken, everyone present was confused.

Fan Jian frowned and said in a deep voice, "What do you mean by that? You went to a brothel to have fun, and you said it was for Ruoruo? What does this visit to a brothel have to do with Ruoruo?"

Fan Ruoruo was also confused: "Brother, you said you did it for me, but how can I get any benefit? Instead, I was criticized for it and it made me lose face."

Fan Xian looked at Fan Ruoruo with a firm gaze: "Ruoruo, why would I harm you?"

He turned to Fan Jian and continued:
"Father, the engagement between Ruoruo and the Sixth Prince was granted by His Majesty and cannot be easily rescinded."

"If you want to cancel this engagement, you must have a legitimate reason."

"Although the Sixth Prince has been granted marriage, he still hangs out in brothels. Isn't this a perfect reason?"

"If this matter spreads to the capital, the Sixth Prince will surely arouse public outrage, become the target of public criticism, and be despised by the world." "Then, father can take this opportunity to ask His Majesty to cancel the engagement!"

Fan Ruoruo understood instantly, and her eyes sparkled with joy.

"Yes, as long as the Sixth Prince causes such a scandal, the responsibility has nothing to do with us."

"Your Majesty will surely understand if I refuse to grant you the marriage at this time!"

"Brother, this is a brilliant idea! I wronged you."

However, while she was delighted, she also sensed something strange.

"But brother, this matter only concerns the Sixth Prince. Why do you want to go to such a romantic place with him?"

Fan Xian smiled slightly and said calmly:
"Of course, it's because I don't want to be bound by that arranged marriage."

"After the Sixth Prince has an engagement, he still lingers in the brothel, which will inevitably attract criticism from everyone. The same is true for me."

"Don't forget, I'm also engaged."

"Once Minister Lin hears of my reputation as a playboy, he might refuse this arranged marriage. Wouldn't that kill two birds with one stone?"

Fan Jian listened silently at the side, his face still gloomy.

He sighed in his heart, thinking that Fan Xian was too young and did not understand the great power of the current emperor.

After Fan Xian finished speaking, Fan Jian spoke without question:
"You are still too young to understand the deep meaning of His Majesty! How can you easily change the matter His Majesty has decided?"

"Remember, you have to get married whether you want to or not!"

……

the other side.

Li Chengyun followed Eunuch Hou back to the palace.

Eunuch Hou was worried all the way and repeatedly reminded:
"Your Highness, when you return to the palace this time, you must restrain your behavior and do not act recklessly again."

"Your Majesty is still angry at the moment, so you should first complete the marriage in peace to avoid any further trouble."

Li Chengyun listened and just nodded repeatedly, saying, "Okay, okay, I agree to all of them."

However, he had his own plans in mind, and those instructions went in one ear and out the other.

He will do whatever is beneficial to him.

He will avoid anything that is disadvantageous to him.

Either follow his heart or act capriciously, everything is determined by his mind.

Returning to his palace, Eunuch Hou was about to leave. Before leaving, he reminded again:

"Your Highness, please remember that His Majesty has ordered you to attend the morning court tomorrow."

After Eunuch Hou left, Li Chengyun leaned on the bed, his brows revealing deep thought.

He wondered why Emperor Qing suddenly asked him to go to court.

You should know that he has always rarely asked about state affairs and almost never attended the morning court.

He foresaw that tomorrow's morning court session would be turbulent.

Those imperial censors would certainly make a big fuss about the two things, namely, he let Fan Sizhe injure Guo Baokun, and he often lived in brothels after being engaged, and would attack him.

What's more, there are countless eyes watching him in secret, waiting for the opportunity to take advantage of him.

Li Chengyun's thoughts were in a tizzy, and finally he realized it.

Emperor Qing summoned him to court this time, probably with the intention of testing him.

I want to see how this seemingly dandy Sixth Prince will respond when he is besieged by so many ministers.

This is undoubtedly a naked observation.

Emperor Qing wants to take this opportunity to find out whether Li Chengyun has any hidden intentions.

What kind of truth is hidden under that disguise, or is he just a fool with nothing but good looks?

After tomorrow's test, Emperor Qing will definitely formulate the next plan against him based on his performance.
