The banquet is over.
After leaving the Daming Palace, Fan Li returned to his home in Beiting Lane.
As soon as he stepped through the gate of Fan Mansion, he met Lu Fubao.
She was holding little Diao Chan and basking in the sun in the courtyard.
"What’s wrong with you?"
The woman was as thoughtful as a silk thread, and she could tell at a glance that Fan Li had a solemn look on his face, so he must have something important on his mind.
Fan Li didn't answer and walked toward the inner courtyard.
In the inner courtyard of Fan Mansion, except for confidants like Jing Wudi and Yu Shenzi, all the ordinary servants were kept away.
"What happened?" Lu Fubao asked again.
Fan Li took out a piece of crumpled paper that Lu Bu left behind before he died.
"Achang, the Holy Lord of Arrows, has also come to the Ming Dynasty."
Unfold the paper.
The Holy Lord of Arrows appeared in front of everyone with an ordinary face like a passerby.
Lu Fubao's body stiffened, and his hands holding the baby couldn't help but tighten a little.
The enemy who killed senior brother Yan Yuan was also in the Ming Dynasty capital?
Her thoughts were spinning rapidly and she quickly regained her clarity, not blinded by hatred.
"The Holy Lord of Arrows is here to assassinate you?!"
Lu Fubao first thought of Fan Li.
As the former assassination target of the Holy Lord of Arrows, could Fan Li be exposed and in danger of being shot at any time?
Fan Li pondered for a long time and finally shook his head.
"Yi Rong Dan should not have been discovered."
"Moreover, today she takes action and her target is Emperor Jiajing."
Fan Li told the three people in detail what happened at the charity bazaar and the Aimin Banquet.
There were no outsiders here, so Jing Wudi immediately knelt down.
"His Majesty!"
"The capital of the Ming Dynasty is extremely dangerous, and there are two more Holy Masters lurking here."
"I have the courage to ask Your Majesty to give up recruiting Hu Zongxian and return to the country immediately to avoid any loss of authority!"
Yu Shenzi immediately agreed.
"Your Majesty, what Mr. Jing said makes sense. It is said that a gentleman does not build a dangerous wall, how much more so, Your Majesty?"
How rare.
The Qingyun Sect and the Xuantian Sect, who had been evil neighbors for a thousand years, came to the time of Yu Shenzi and Jing Wudi, who not only turned their hostility into friendship, but also became like-minded.
Fan Li shook his head.
"I will not back down."
Yu Shenzi and Jing Wudi don't know the secret of the clone.
"I have decided that in addition to rescuing Hu Zongxian, this time I will lurk in the Ming Dynasty and add an additional target."
"A Chang, the Holy Lord of Arrows."
"I want to end it with her in Daming!"
The emperor has golden words.
As soon as Fan Li said this, Yu Shenzi and Jing Wudi both knelt down and said they obeyed the order without raising any objections.

Daming Palace, Zhongcui Palace.
The eunuchs were busy throwing away old items and bringing in new ones. The entire palace was reborn in one day.
"My concubine, your servant Chen Hong, has been ordered to tidy up the Zhongcui Palace for you."
"Everything used in the palace has been replaced by new ones."
"Your Majesty, please see if there is anything missing. I will order someone to make it up."
Chen Hong's face was full of flattery.
As a eunuch, what he is best at is inviting favors.
Several high eunuchs in the harem were all trying to please this new beloved concubine who had made a great contribution to the rescue.
It took a lot of effort for him to get the job of organizing Zhongcui Palace for Xue Susu.
The Qinhuai oiran had a low status and was originally not qualified to enter the palace to serve Tianyan.
Because of this incident, the ministers were already quarreling in the court. Memorials written to admonish Emperor Jiajing piled up on the imperial desk like snowflakes.
But in Chen Hong's eyes, the louder the ministers quarrel, the more it proves that the concubines are in good health.
The reason is simple.
The prostitute actually turned into the emperor's woman. How much does the emperor like her that he dares to risk the disapproval of the world?
"Eunuch Chen."
"My slave is here."
Xue Susu was like a panicked lark, at a loss in a strange environment.
Her beautiful face was filled with nervousness, and she asked cautiously: "I...I am scared to be alone in the palace. Can you arrange for my former maid to enter the palace? She is very sensible and will not cause trouble."
Chen Hong looked at the reaction of the woman in front of him with contempt in his heart.
Ah?
So what if the country is beautiful and fragrant?
After all, she is a little girl in a boat, and she has never seen much of the world.
Tian En suddenly descended upon her, and she was so frightened?
Is there any safer place in the world than the Ming Palace?
What's so scary?
Besides, her former maid was the maid of Yanbo Huafang?
Aren't the maids who serve prostitutes more despicable than prostitutes?
According to common practice, he is definitely not qualified to enter the palace.
But Chen Hong thought to himself that if he agreed to this trivial matter, he would be able to please his concubine. The job he had spent a thousand high-grade spiritual stones to grab today would not be in vain!
"My dear concubine, your request is against the rules."
Chen Hong found it difficult to do anything, and gritted his teeth again, as if he had made up his mind.
"But your Majesty is the master of this slave. If you ask me to do something, I will do it for you even if I am shattered to pieces."
"Please don't worry, Madam!"
"In three days at the latest, I will send the person you want to Zhongcui Palace."
Chen Hong said while observing the changes in Xue Susu's expression.
really!
This woman is so simple.
When she heard that she had agreed to her request, she was so excited that her face turned red and tears welled up in her eyes.
"Such a shallow woman is easy to control."
"As long as her holy favor continues, she can be my backer."
Xue Susu said with a slight trembling cry: "Eunuch Chen, thank you very much. But three days is too long. I am really... scared as to whether we can send her to the palace today."
Chen Hong rolled his eyes in frustration.
Why is this stupid woman so clueless?
He had promised her that it would be done in three days, but he was not greedy enough?
Without waiting for Chen Hong to answer, Xue Susu said: "That's all, my father-in-law must feel very embarrassed. Your Majesty said that he would come to Zhongcui Palace for dinner tonight, so I'd better ask your Majesty directly."
"No, no, no, my dear, don't be impatient! I just promise you, my slave!"
Chen Hong was startled.
He said to himself, as expected, the new generation is better than the old one, and the royal family of the oiran is indeed very prosperous!
If you enter the palace during the day and become a concubine, can you receive His Majesty's blessing at night?
Chen Hong gave up his little bit of self-esteem and said with a charming smile: "Empress, please tell me the name of that maid, and I will immediately go to the Yanbo Painting Boat to bring her. You see, this is very simple, I can do it If you can do it, don’t bother Your Majesty.”
"Really?"
Xue Susu's eyes were filled with moisture, as if she had just been bullied by Chen Hong.
"Really, more real than real gold!"
Chen Hong gritted his teeth.
The selection of palace maids is the right of another eunuch. If he wants to be accommodating, he must spend a lot of money.
All the eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty were human beings.
As long as people see Chen Hong bringing new people into the palace and going to Zhongcui Palace, they will immediately understand that Chen Hong wants to please Xue Susu.
At this time, it would be strange not to kill him with a knife!
"well!"
"This trip will cost at least five thousand high-grade spiritual stones. I don't know when I can get it back."
Chen Hong had a severe headache and had to pretend to smile on the outside.
"Your Majesty, I will bring that person to you before dark."
"Excuse me, what is her name?"
Xue Susu finally broke down into laughter.
Her cheeks were still slightly red, looking pitiful as if she had just cried.
"My maid's name is Achang..."
I have something to do today, so another chapter will be updated later.
I promised everyone to update as early as possible, but I failed to do so. I will compensate everyone for the third update tomorrow.
