My father, on horseback, is the empire's dragon commander; off horseback, he is the current prime minister. People call me the Young Prime Minister.
My father and I both feared being slau...
"Why haven't they come out yet?"
"Young Marquis, there's no need to worry! With the Young Prime Minister in charge, this matter will surely succeed!"
"What do I have to worry about? You're the one who cares most about Chen Feier, not me!"
Xu An crossed his arms, pouted, and said, "I just feel something's not right. What could possibly need to be discussed for so long? Could it be that the young prime minister forced himself on Chen Feier?"
Li Guanyu's expression changed, and he exclaimed in surprise, "I completely forgot about that!!"
After saying this, Li Guanyu ran towards the dilapidated house, leaving Chai Xin, who was accompanying him, both amused and exasperated.
What a close bond between the four young masters of Yanchuan!
What happened to the trust we were promised?
Squeak—
The door to the dilapidated house opened, and Zhao Cheng strode out.
Li Guanyu nearly bumped into his chest and hurriedly peered into the dilapidated house, at which point the door was closed.
"How is it, young prime minister?"
Zhao Cheng was stunned for a moment, then said, "She promised not to try to kill herself again and that she can come with me. But there's one condition."
Upon hearing this, Li Guanyu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Just name your terms! What does she want?"
"She wants... us to help her find someone."
Zhao Cheng explained in detail the conditions proposed by Chen Feier.
It turns out that although Chen Feier was a sheltered young lady, she was already engaged to Su Ye, the son of the wealthy Su family in Yanchuan.
Chen Feier only loved painting and had no objection to the marriage arranged by her parents. So even though she knew that Su Ye was a rich young master, she thought that as long as he didn't interfere with her painting after they got married, it would be fine.
As for whether she loves him or not, it doesn't matter. Anyway, she doesn't have anyone she likes, so she'll just let things take their course.
However, Chen Feier did not expect that after the Wang Yufeng case came to light, Chen Yuxian not only died, but was also exposed as a spy for Southern Zhou, and was Southern Zhou's number one spy in Yanchuan City.
The Su family immediately severed ties with Chen Yuxian's wife and daughter, and dissolved the engagement between Su Ye and Chen Feier.
This is only natural, and Chen Feier can understand it.
What angered her was that Su Ye was spreading rumors behind her back, saying that Chen Feier was a spy for Southern Zhou, just like Chen Yuxian. She claimed that Chen Feier appeared innocent on the surface, but in reality, she was a complete slut who frequently seduced men in order to help her father.
The most important reason he broke off his engagement with Chen Feier was not Chen Yuxian's identity, but that he could not tolerate marrying such a woman!
"A slut like Chen Feier from Southern Zhou should spend her whole life licking toes in Tianguifang!"
This was Su Ye's most vicious comment about Chen Feier, and these words were like a thorn deeply embedded in Chen Feier's heart.
“I know Su Ye too well. He’s good for nothing except being rich!” Xu An was the first to speak after listening to Zhao Cheng’s explanation.
Li Guanyu, however, found it very interesting and asked, "What does Miss Fei'er want?"
Zhao Cheng said, "Let Su Ye be utterly disgraced."
"The phrase 'disgrace and ruin' sounds simple, but upon closer examination, it reveals the most vicious form of revenge," Li Guanyu sighed. "One should never easily offend a woman!"
"This is not the time for lamentation."
Zhao Cheng asked, "What do you two think? Should you agree to her request?"
"Of course I agree!" Li Guanyu clenched his fist and said, "A scumbag like Su Ye, who would even abandon his beautiful wife, must be punished!"
Xu An nodded and said, "I agree!"
"Then let's think of something." Zhao Cheng walked outside, saying as he went, "It would be too easy for us to just beat him up or humiliate him. But to ruin his reputation, we'll have to think about it more carefully."
Li Guanyu looked at the dilapidated house and asked, "Aren't you going to tell Miss Fei'er that we agreed to her request?"
"I promised her before I left."
"The young prime minister's decisiveness is admirable!" Li Guanyu gave a thumbs up.
"You flatter me." Zhao Cheng walked out without batting an eye, thinking to himself, "Of course I agreed to what Miss Fei'er promised me. What does it have to do with you?"
"She promised not to try to kill herself again and that she could come with me."
I've made it very clear to you all, she's following me!
Follow me, follow me!
If you listen but don't pay attention to the keywords, don't blame me!
The three of them seized the opportunity and discussed the matter thoroughly by candlelight late into the night.
The following morning, Xu An was invited to Zhao Cheng's elegant and popular manor.
As the manor grew less and less like it used to be, Xu An was filled with mixed emotions.
To squander such a large estate, I, Xu An, am quite a figure indeed!
Especially on the right-hand side after entering the door, where there used to be some flowers and plants, a building has now been rebuilt.
"Two, three, four..." Xu An counted the floors, puzzled, "Aren't the houses in the manor enough for you? What are you going to build this time?"
Zhao Cheng hadn't sought out Xu An alone because of Chen Feier's matter. Upon hearing Xu An's question, he immediately followed up, saying, "Your manor is a treasure trove of feng shui. It's a waste to just use it all by yourself. I'm going to use it for something big!"
Hearing Zhao Cheng speak so solemnly, Xu An's curiosity was piqued, and he asked, "What's the big deal?"
Zhao Cheng held up one finger and said, "I want everyone who walks through this door to willingly part with a thousand taels of silver!"
"One thousand taels?"
"You think it's expensive?"
Xu An peeked into the house that was being renovated and asked suspiciously, "Is there a fox spirit hiding in the house?"
"You were absolutely right!" Zhao Cheng clapped his hands and said, "Not only are there fox spirits, but also cat demons! Fairy maidens! Nezha... basically, everything you can think of is there!"
"Even if all of these things you mentioned are there, they're all just people in disguise. They're just there to have a drink with you. It's not worth spending so much money!"
