Fan Li froze instantly.
This secret cannot be known to too many people!
Princess Changle is smarter than a fox, so it’s just a matter of being seen through by her.
Lu Fubao also saw through it?
"What is the imperial concubine talking about?" Fan Li said with a straight face, pretending to be solemn: "This is a serious matter. As your majesty's favorite concubine, the imperial concubine must not talk nonsense. Otherwise, the foundation of the country will be shaken, whether to your majesty or the imperial concubine. It’s all negative.”
He guessed that perhaps Empress Dowager Li wanted to alienate the harem and deliberately told Lu Fubao.
Although it was true, there was no evidence at the moment. All he had to do was deny it and deceive Lu Fubao first.
Fan Li was really not familiar with the eldest lady Lu Cheng, and he was afraid that she was a girl with a girlish nature and would be instigated by Empress Dowager Li or Xiang Chong.
"Stop pretending."
Lu Fubao's reaction was calmer than Fan Li expected.
She stared at Fan Li for a long time, although her eyes were full of resentment, she finally just sighed.
"I discovered this on my own."
"After the meeting of the Three Emperors, I followed His Majesty back to the palace. I found that she was very respectful to me, but kept a distance from me. She never touched me with a finger."
"Lu Cheng surrendered to Da Chu. I can accept this kind of political marriage. After all, it is for my father and the Lu family."
"Until one day, I went to pay my respects to His Majesty as usual, but found that His Majesty was nowhere to be seen in the bedroom. Instead, a palace maid heard my footsteps and hid in His Majesty's bed in panic."
"I could see clearly that the person was indeed dressed as a palace maid. But when I asked, His Majesty's voice came from the quilt, and he told me that he was ill and asked me to avoid him."
"I was shocked at the time and thought His Majesty had a fetish for cross-dressing."
Fan Li rolled his eyes when he heard this.
Good guy!
No wonder, as the saying goes, if you often walk by the river, how can your shoes not get wet?
How many times did Xiang Ning secretly wear women's clothing before she was finally caught by Lu Fubao.
"When I saw His Majesty again the next day, I couldn't help but start observing him carefully."
At this point, Lu Fubao paused and took a deep breath.
"I once read "The Art of Physiology" and learned a lot about it. I found that your majesty has the appearance of a daughter regardless of the outline of her facial features, complexion, body shape, hand lines and bones."
Fan Li shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, no, I have never heard of "The Art of Physiology". I also advise your concubine to read less idle books. Most of them are fallacies."
"hehe?"
Lu Fubao was not angry when he saw him trying to evade.
"The book "Xiangshu" written by Xu Fu, the former Qin State Master, must be used as the standard for selecting concubines in the Qin harem. So it turns out that it is just an idle book in the eyes of the Duke of Jin?"
Fan Li was silent, his expression gradually becoming painful.
Seeing his reaction like this, Lu Fubao felt like he was letting out a bad breath.
She feels much better!
"Don't worry, I have decided to keep it a secret, and I didn't even tell my father."
Lu Fubao said, feeling a little discouraged.
"In the final analysis, my father and I were deceived by you into boarding the pirate ship a long time ago, and now we are like grasshoppers on a skewer."
Wow!
This girl understands justice well!
Fan Li was moved and curiously asked: "How many pre-Qin classics are stored in Lucheng?"
"Enough to fill up your Jiangshan Pavilion."
…
…………
Yunmeng Shannan.
The ten-day period was about to expire, and Fan Li finally arrived at his destination.
He walked very slowly along the way, just trying not to be late.
As a result, he was the last one to arrive.
"Fan Li, you are so arrogant that you make everyone wait for you?!"
came a mean and shrill female voice.
Although the opponent was a powerful person in the Mahayana realm, Fan Li was not afraid at all.
He smiled and said: "I am not late. Where does the word 'wait' come from, Holy Lord Jinde? Could it be that I remembered it wrong? The ten-day period was not set by you, Holy Lord Jinde?"
"you!?"
Jin De was furious and wanted to slap Fan Li to death.
But she was embarrassed to find out that this cooperation was actually a request from the Four Kingdoms for help from the Pure Land.
Since Fan Li is here to help, Holy Master Jin De has no reason to yell at him.
"Yunmeng Mountain only allows Confucian practitioners to enter the mountain."
"But I don't know what kind of Confucianism cultivators were sent by Wei, Han, and Wu."
Fan Li was more curious about the Confucian cultivators of the Three Kingdoms than Holy Lord Jin De.
He even had some vague guesses.
Not far away, three small guards stood quietly, each guarding a chariot.
Perhaps Fan Li made some noise and was noticed by the other party.
The three cars had a tacit understanding and raised their car curtains almost at the same time.
Three men got out of the car and walked towards Fan Li.
He was dressed luxuriously, slender and handsome, like a handsome young man, with a look of calmness and confidence in his eyes.
He has a face as beautiful as jade, lips as bright as red, he is handsome and handsome, and he has a sword at his waist. He is extremely heroic!
The last man was eight feet long, with a very majestic appearance. He held a feather fan in his hand and his eyes were quiet and far-reaching.
"Great Chu Jin Gong Fan Li, may I ask the three of you?" Fan Li took his time, smiling and clasping his fists.
The good young master raised his hands and said, "Guo Jia, the Marquis of Weiyang Ting in the Wei Dynasty, has heard about Duke Jin's reputation for a long time, and I am lucky enough to meet him today."
The man with the sword saluted and said: "Da Wu, the commander-in-chief Zhou Yu has met Duke Jin."
Fan Li said heartily, it is indeed you!
Even without introducing the last person, Fan Li guessed his identity.
"Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, has heard of Duke Jin for a long time."
Three important ministers and one powerful minister, although it was the first time they met, they all felt sympathetic to each other.
Fan Li was about to say a few polite words, but Holy Master Jin De spoke again.
"Fan Li, you don't know yet, right? These three are Guiguzi's students!"
"Three Confucian cultivators sent by Wei, Han and Wu came to help with the boxing, which shows the sincerity of the Three Kingdoms!"
"But what about you? With only a mere foundation-building cultivation, you may have the life to enter the mountain, but not the life to come out. With you as the representative of Da Chu, you want to invite Gui Guzi to come out of the mountain. It is simply insincere!"
After saying that, Holy Lord Jin De sneered again and again.
With Fan Li's cultivation, of course he would not get angry due to such provocation.
But he was also surprised.
Unexpectedly, the three ministers under Cao Liusun in this life were actually from the same sect?
The three of them frowned slightly when they saw Holy Lord Jin De trying to bully Fan Li with words.
Guo Jia shook his head and said: "Whether we can invite the master to come out has nothing to do with our cultivation level."
Zhou Yu also said: "Yes, with Master's temper, I just ask if he is pleasing to the eye. If the old man is not happy, maybe after seeing us, he will change his mind and refuse to go out. It is also very possible."
"What Gong Jin said is true."
Zhuge Liang also said helplessly.
"Although the three of us are Master's disciples, it is impossible to win any favors. Holy Master, one more person will bring more opportunities. Jin Gong is not a human being, so he might be able to attract the attention of the master."
Holy Lord Jinde had a big mouth and couldn't make a sound for a long time.
She originally thought that with three Guigu disciples as introductions, this trip would be a sure thing, and Fan Li could only make up the numbers.
In the end, this is the result?
Holy Lord Jinde was depressed when suddenly an army slowly came from a distance.
Judging from the number of people, there are about five thousand!
Everyone looked around and first saw the flags fluttering, and then looked closer and found that there seemed to be the emperor's dragon flag!
"Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty, he came in person!?" Fan Li was secretly shocked.
But when he thought about it again, he felt something was wrong.
Emperor Jiajing practiced Taoism and practiced metaphysics, and it was well known throughout the world that he could not possess the awe-inspiring spirit of Confucianism.
However, except Emperor Jiajing, who in the Ming Dynasty dared to use the dragon flag ceremonial guard? !
Sudden!
Five thousand Ming troops shouted in unison: "Prince Wanli of the Ming Dynasty has arrived. All you ministers from the lower and lower states, come and kneel down quickly!"
(Special note: Wanli is the reign name of Ming Shenzong Zhu Yijun after he ascended the throne. He is the grandson of Emperor Jiajing, and there is Emperor Longqing in between. But Longqing was too short-lived, and [Prince Wanli] had many rumors and momentum, so I decided to use it this way. Everyone just pretends that Long Qing doesn’t exist, and I hope everyone knows about it.)
