Chapter 179 Two against one, can we still lose?
"In a few days, I may have to go out and look for some precious medicinal herbs to try to help Fan Xian with his treatment."
"When the time comes, you will need to keep an eye on Fan Xian."
"If anything happens to him, it will be the end."
Fei Jie told Fan Jian and Chen Pingping truthfully.
Fan Jian nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely not let Fan Xian have any accidents this time."
Fei Jie said: "Then I'll leave it to you. I want to leave tomorrow."
Chen Pingping said: "Okay, leave this matter to us, and you can just look for the herbs without worry."
"Also, the guy from Dongyi City has also arrived now and is thirty miles outside the city."
Fan Jian frowned slightly and asked, "Is he really here?"
"Is it worth spending such a huge price to invite him here?"
Chen Pingping smiled and said, "Of course it's worth it."
"It is impossible for anyone who hurt Wu Zhu to become our friend."
"If they are not friends, then they are naturally enemies."
"Even if we don't get rid of him now, he will be a nuisance in the future and affect the overall situation."
"So, we have to make some preparations early."
Fan Jian pondered for a moment and said, "That being said, I am still a little worried."
"What are you worried about?" Chen Pingping asked, "Are you worried that the two of them combined won't be able to defeat that person?"
"No matter what, they are all great masters. Even if the opponent's martial arts are very strong, can they fail if they are fighting against one with 12?"
At this time, Fei Jie said: "I think what Lao Chen said makes some sense."
"Grandmasters are the most elite group of people in the world. They cannot be judged by ordinary force."
"If two grandmasters really fight against one grandmaster, they will definitely win."
"Don't worry about this."
When Fan Jian heard Fei Jie say this, he gave up the idea.
No matter what, Fei Jie is about to become a grandmaster, so what he says must be very trustworthy.
"In that case, it's up to you." Fan Jian sighed slowly.
Chen Pingping added: "If you are still worried, send some black cavalry over to prevent any accidents."
Fan Jian said: "Let's call the Tiger Guards as well. If more people go over, we'll have more strength."
Chen Pingping nodded and said, "Okay, let's put it this way."
"Now let's wait for news."
Then, Fan Jian took a small box of tea from the bookcase next to him and placed it on his desk.
"Come, try some of my recent collection of fine teas."
……
In a private room of a restaurant on East Street.
Li Chengze and Li Hongcheng had already eaten and drunk their fill and were a little tipsy.
Especially Li Hongcheng, his face was red from drinking, his speech was a bit slurred, and he kept grinning foolishly.
Li Hongcheng had already drunk a lot of wine since noon, and now he had drunk a few more jars, and was almost drunk on the table.
"belch……"
Li Hongcheng burped and said with a silly smile: "Second brother, I... let me tell you something."
"This is the first time in my life that I like...like a girl like this."
"You...you...say I have...a chance?"
Li Chengze drank a glass of wine slowly and said, "You are in a bit of a precarious situation."
"Now Miss Ruoruo, do you know that you like her?"
“Hehehe…” Li Hongcheng laughed a few times and said, “No…she doesn’t know…”
Li Chengze asked: "Then why don't you tell her?"
Li Hongcheng lay on the table, holding chopsticks in his hand, stirring the wine bowl a few times, and said:
"I...I don't dare."
"I'm afraid if I tell her... we... will no longer be friends." "So... so... I can only be nice to her silently."
Ah!
Li Chengze couldn't help but shook his head and smiled.
Unexpectedly, his cousin is actually a bootlicker.
However, Li Chengze seemed to remember that in the original novel, Fan Ruoruo did marry Li Hongcheng in the end.
Originally, Fan Ruru liked Fan Xian and had the urge to marry him.
Especially after she knew Fan Xian's true identity, she became even more excited and found an opportunity to express her love to Fan Xian on the spot.
It's a pity that Fan Xian has treated Fan Ruoruo as his own sister since childhood, and he has feelings for her in his heart.
It was a long time later that she married Li Hongcheng.
So, his cousin still has a chance.
Li Chengze put down the wine glass in his hand and said, "What is there to be afraid of?"
"If you like someone, just go after them. The worst that can happen is that they'll reject you. What's the big deal?"
"You haven't even tried, so how do you know you'll lose?"
"Listen to me, if you are a man, don't be afraid of failure, just chase it bravely."
Li Hongcheng burped and said, "Okay... Second Brother... I'll listen to you..."
Before he could finish his words, he leaned backwards and collapsed to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, several shouts came out of Li Hongcheng's mouth.
After seeing this, Li Chengze shook his head helplessly.
I don’t know if this kid heard clearly what he said just now.
Whether you can pursue her in the future depends on your luck.
Then, Li Chengze waved his hand and said, "Waiter, check out!"
After the bill was settled, Li Chengze carried the unconscious Li Hongcheng and left the restaurant.
The night had already fallen completely dark at this time. Although there were not many pedestrians on the street, it was very lively.
Li Chengze was standing nearby. He stopped a sedan chair for four people and put Li Hongcheng inside.
He originally wanted to let Li Hongcheng go home by himself, but he felt uneasy, so he stopped a sedan chair and went to Prince Jing's Mansion together.
Soon, two sedan chairs stopped at the gate of Prince Jing's Mansion.
By the time Li Chengze had arranged everything for Li Hongcheng and returned to the palace where he lived, it was almost late at night.
After he returned to the room, he felt a pain in his body. He lay down on the bed and fell asleep without even taking off his clothes.
Silent all night.
……
The next day, early in the morning.
Li Chengze was drowsy and found that it was already dawn, so he sat up from the bed.
He rubbed his dizzy forehead and felt his body become particularly refreshed.
Moreover, when I was sleeping last night, I didn’t have any dreams at all.
A real good sleep till dawn.
After Li Chengze got out of bed, he shouted to the door, "Someone come!"
Immediately afterwards, the maid Xiaotao, who was standing at the door, replied:
"Your Highness, what are your orders?"
Li Chengze said: "Go get some water, I need to wash up."
"Okay, please wait a moment." Xiao Tao responded and immediately turned and left.
After a few breaths.
With a creaky sound, the door that was originally tightly closed was immediately opened.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Tao came with a wooden basin and clean water, with a towel draped over her shoulders.
When Xiao Tao walked in front of Li Chengze, she put down the wooden basin in her hand and said:
"Your Highness, the water is here. Please enjoy it slowly."
