Liu Bei left, but left behind a picture of "The Doubtful Tomb of the Last Emperor of Qin".

Qin was not the only dynasty before the Three Kingdoms, but it was definitely a very special dynasty!

It is universally recognized that there is only one word that is most suitable to describe this dynasty.

powerful!

Strong Qin!

This is the most unpretentious way of expressing it, and it was even unanimously recognized by famous Confucians and sages of all ages for thousands of years after the fall of Qin.

Many people also believe that the three kingdoms of Chu, Han, and Ming were just the restoration of the pre-Qin Yahui.

"Should I go?" Xiang Ning hesitated.

She studied the "Picture of the Suspicious Tomb of the Late Emperor of Qin" for a long time, but because the picture itself was a copy, Xiang Ning had no way of checking its authenticity.

Moreover, she was by no means a learned scholar. Even if the real picture was presented to her, Xiang Ning would not be able to distinguish it.

Of the three people sitting in the dragon chariot, one of them could barely be considered knowledgeable.

Xiang Ning glanced at Fan Li. This guy was sleeping soundly in the most comfortable position in the middle of the dragon chariot?

It was like sleeping on the emperor's dragon bed. It was simply... no different from Fan Li's usual treacherous behavior...?

"Your Majesty, is it appropriate for him to sleep like this?" Lu Fubao approached Xiang Ning and pointed at Fan Li, who was sleeping soundly.

Xiang Ning was actually a little moved when he heard this!

She is indeed the daughter of Lu Chunqiu. Although she has not yet given the grand ceremony, she already has the consciousness of being an imperial concubine and knows that she always thinks of her emperor.

But Lu Fubao's next words almost made Xiang Ning angry to death.

"Your Majesty, since I have become your royal concubine, do you want to call Lord Fan 'my father-in-law' like you do?"

"I can't afford to be embarrassed. Master Xiao Fan is at most ten years older than me, right?"

Xiang Ning was stunned for a moment.

Yes, you know how embarrassing it is? What about me?

Fan Li, the traitor, is only about ten years older than you, and you don't even want to call him 'xiang father'.

I'm only four or five years younger than him, and I've been calling him 'xiangfu' for several months.

"you……"

Xiang Ning thought of Lu Fubao's family background and didn't dare to have even the slightest temper.

"You can just call him 'Jin Gong', and that's what I call him too."

After saying that, Xiang Ning drooped his head, looking pitiful as if he had lost a cockfight.

"So it's not that Fan Li is too strong, but that I am too weak? Fubao is my imperial concubine, but I don't even dare to offend her. I am the most incompetent emperor in the world, right?"



…………

The Chu Emperor's ceremonial guard finally arrived at Pengcheng, the capital.

The news of Xiang Ning's victory over Emperor Jiajing had already spread back to Chu State.

Pengcheng was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations to congratulate the emperor on his victory.

In the imperial court, the three princes, nine ministers and other civil and military ministers had already left the city thirty miles away to welcome him!

In the palace, the Queen Mother had already held a banquet to honor Xiang Ning.

"I'm a little tired, so I won't be attending the celebration banquet later."

When the emperor's guard of honor passed by the street where Fan's mansion was located, Fan Li left a few words and went home in style.

Xiang Ning was stunned.

She had been thinking about how to stabilize Fan Li during the celebration banquet to prevent him from bullying her in front of the officials.

However, this turned out to be her own passion?

Fan Mansion.

"Big Brother, Third Brother, Little Sister, I'm back!"

The Fan family naturally knows the return schedule of Emperor Chu's ceremonial guard.

As soon as they heard Fan Li's shouting, the three siblings immediately came out to greet him!

They originally thought it was an intimate scene of family reunion, but when the three of them saw Fan Li, what they said shocked him.

"Second brother, I heard that your majesty actually defeated Emperor Jiajing? If this is true, sooner or later he will be disadvantageous to the second brother! According to the eldest brother, it is better to strike first to gain strength than to strike later and suffer disaster..."

Fan Li: "...???"

As soon as the eldest brother Fan Ming finished speaking, the third brother Fan Chun jumped out impatiently.

"Hunjun is so presumptuous that he dared to show off during the meeting of the Three Emperors, which deprived the second brother of his chance to perform. In my opinion, he should have rebelled against him!"

Fan Li's cheek twitched.

He wanted to ask Fan Chun, did he know what the "Three Emperors" in the "Three Emperors Alliance" meant?

"Second brother, Yuehua has a way to solve the Xiang family's threat once and for all!"

Fan Yuehua looked murderous, completely unlike the legendary 'Fairy Yuehua'.

Fan Li shook his head repeatedly.

Please don't say it, I don't want to hear it!

"Didn't the second brother choose the queen and the imperial concubine for the stupid emperor? Why don't the second brother also get married and have children as soon as possible. When the queen becomes pregnant and gives birth to a son in the future, we will give him a trick and exchange the second brother's child with the prince. How much? Years later, the throne of Chu will naturally fall into the hands of my family, Fan."

Fan Li rolled his eyes when he heard this and thought, I just got home, can't I serve you a bowl of hot tea? Do we have to stand in front of our house and talk about rebellion?

After finally appeasing his brothers and sisters, Fan Li simply dived into the practice room.

In this private practice room, which was strictly prohibited from intrusion, Fan Li's first clone was still sitting cross-legged in meditation.

"Use a stand-in doll."

The second perfect clone appeared. Without saying a word, he walked straight to the first clone and sat down, and also began to meditate and practice.

Fan Li checked his cultivation level.

The first clone has been training hard for many days, and with the support of elixirs provided by Fan's Trading Company, it has finally managed to break through to the fifth level of the body refining realm.

"Too slow." Fan Li smiled bitterly and shook his head.

He thought for a moment and started to sit cross-legged and meditate.

Although twice the cultivation speed is good, it is not as good as three times.



…………

Da Chu Imperial Palace.

After the celebration banquet, the slightly tipsy Xiang Ning was held by the Empress Dowager's hand and walked all the way to the depths of the harem.

The two stopped in front of a palace door. Xiang Ning looked up and the words 'Jiaofang Palace' came into view.

Xiang Ning suddenly remembered!

Jiaofang Palace?

Isn't this a palace dedicated to the queen?

Before the death of the late emperor, the empress dowager lived in Jiaofang Palace, and she did not move out until Xiang Ning ascended the throne.

"Mother, mother, mother...mother? What are you?" Xiang Ning said in horror.

She suddenly remembered something, her face turned red with embarrassment, and she looked at the Empress Dowager in disbelief.

"Fool, what are you thinking about? Do you think I will force you to consummate your marriage with someone? Silly boy, you are not a real man."

The Empress Dowager said, but the strength in her hands was quite strong.

Holding Xiang Ning's hand, she used her completely irresistible strength to forcefully pull him into the Jiaofang Hall.

The Jiaofang Hall is magnificent, after all, it is a place dedicated to the residence of the mother of the country. On an ordinary screen in the hall, there is also a picture of "Hundred Birds Paying Attention to the Phoenix" painted by a famous painter.

Xiang Ning's panic calmed down a little as he admired "A Hundred Birds Paying Attention to the Phoenix".

The Queen Mother suddenly said: "Princess, please come out and meet me."

Xiang Ning's eyes widened suddenly and he saw a beautiful figure walking out from behind the screen.

A stunningly beautiful woman with an alluring face that even Xiang Ning envied.

Xiang Ning didn't know her, but he had heard of her and knew about her future relationship with him.

Xiang Ning's heart beat faster and faster, and Xiang Ning even lowered his head in embarrassment, not daring to look directly at the other person.

However, the princess moved lightly to Xiang Ning and stared at her with a pair of beautiful eyes full of smiles.

That look was like a playful child admiring his new toy.

"My concubine, Princess Liu Man of Changle of the Han Dynasty, pays homage to Your Majesty."

After her gentle words fell, Princess Changle knelt down in front of Xiang Ning.
