Chapter 161 Five Nations Literary Meeting



When Gu Can and Shang Rong arrived in Wutu City, it was already the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month. Two days later, it was New Year's Eve. A sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner was prepared.

“Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest, and the coming year will be a good year.” When we were having the New Year’s Eve dinner, it suddenly started snowing. Everyone was very happy.

"That's good. However, in recent years, the Qinglian Continent has been blessed with good weather and good harvests, and the people's lives have become much better." Ji Xiaoju said.

"That's right, Su'er is a good kid. The grain seeds are not hidden and choked. In the past few years, no people have starved to death. It is a blessing." Gu Liang was also full of emotion. This is very good.

All the common people want is to have enough food and clothing and to live in peace.

"Then let us raise our glasses to celebrate the coming year of good weather, peace and prosperity." Gu Can said, raising his glass.

"Celebrating the coming year with good weather, peace and prosperity." This is the best wish.

Shang Rong looked at Gu Can and the others. Only someone with such a heart of love could teach a king like Qingmu Junsu. She was lucky to have met such a good teacher.

In ancient times, the Spring Festival always lasted a long time. The Lantern Festival brought great excitement to the city of Wutu.

"It's so lively, Senior Sister, they're guessing lantern riddles over there, let's go check it out too?" Shang Rong took Gu Can's arm as they walked down the bustling street. The various exquisite and ingenious lanterns were a feast for the eyes. Modern times have their own charms, and ancient times also had their own liveliness.

"Okay," Gu Can agreed. Gu Liang and Ji Xiaoju didn't force them to go together, and they went to see what interested them. If they saw a new snack, they would buy one to try, and if it tasted good, they would bring some for Gu Can and the others.

Shang Rong pulled Gu Can into the crowd and came to the front row.

This year's Lantern King is a huge and beautiful lotus lantern. Only those who can correctly guess all the riddles given by the owner can win the Lantern King.

Shang Rong fell in love with it immediately. Just as she was about to step forward to answer the question, a young man in brocade clothes came out. Even in such a cold day, he was wearing a fox fur cloak and holding a folding fan in his hand, which he twirled from time to time.

This young man looked like he came from a wealthy family. He was fair-skinned, refined, and quite talented. Seeing that he had already guessed all the riddles, Shang Rong had no choice but to give up.

"Young ladies, please wait." Hearing the voice, Gu Can and Shang Rong stopped and turned around. It was the young man in brocade clothes. The servant behind him was still carrying the lantern, which looked very inconvenient. Shang Rong's favor was instantly reduced.

"My name is Zhong Chengqian. Miss Guan also likes this lantern, so I'm giving it to you as a gift." Zhong Chengqian said, looking at Shang Rong. Gu Can slightly turned aside and let Shang Rong handle it. After all, he came here for Shang Rong.

Zhong Chengqian? The second prince of Wu Tu Kingdom, and a deeply affectionate male partner to Shang Rong. It seems the two actually met at the Five Kingdoms Literary Conference.

Zhong Chengqian also fell in love at first sight with Shang Rong, who was a big shot at the literary meeting.

Now, Shang Rong didn't do anything, but this guy still fell in love at first sight?

"No reward without merit. If you have nothing to do, we will leave." Shang Rong refused directly. If she really wanted it that much, she would have gone to fight for it just now. This person was not her relative, and it was definitely not a good thing for him to be so attentive to her for no reason.

"Eh." Zhong Chengqian wanted to say something else.

Shang Rong had already turned and left with Gu Can. She watched the two of them walk away.

"It's really interesting." Zhong Chengqian exclaimed.

"Second Prince, you must follow them." A person came out from behind and asked.

"No need. It's not easy to approach the disciples of the miracle doctor. We will meet each other eventually. Please leave." After Zhong Chengqian finished speaking, the people behind him left.

Gu Can and Shang Rong walked away and found that they were not being followed, and their mood improved a little.

"Zhong Chengqian, the second prince of Wu Tu Kingdom, is very frank and doesn't shy away from anything at all," Shang Rong said.

"He came here for you, and he never thought of hiding it. After all, he would be seen at the Chinese Literature Meeting on March 5th. If he made up an identity, it would be exposed by itself, and he would suffer greatly. He is not that stupid." Gu Can said.

"Come for me? What's so special about me?" Shang Rong felt strange. It was not that she was self-deprecating, but when she was with Gu Can, she really didn't think that she had anything worthy of a prince of a country condescending to her.

"She is the only granddaughter of the Minister of Revenue of Qingmu State. Her maternal family is Prime Minister Ji. She is loved by both families. Now she is a disciple of the genius doctor and a junior sister of Qingmu Junsu. Is she worthy of the prince of a country condescending to her?" Gu Can looked at her with amusement.

"These intelligence workers are so amazing. I'm just a girl, and I've only been an apprentice for a few months. I've been with my master and his wife for less than a month, but everything about me has already been investigated." Shang Rong couldn't help but sigh at the amazing abilities of those intelligence workers.

"But Senior Sister, your status is far superior to mine." Shang Rong felt that Gu Can's status was more important. She was the daughter of the genius doctor! Qingmu Junsu's senior sister, not to mention that Gu Can was so powerful.

"That's only if they know about it." Gu Can chuckled. No matter how powerful an intelligence worker is, if she doesn't want others to know about her, then no one can detect her existence.

"Amazing! I want to be that awesome too!" Shang Rong thought of Gu Can's mysterious abilities. Even if someone noticed, she would know and fool them.

"Then you have to practice more diligently. Having something yourself is better than having it in your possession." Gu Can took this opportunity to persuade Shang Rong.

"I know. I will practice diligently and not be lazy." Shang Rong replied. No one knew better than she that everything depended on her own feelings. Before crossing over, she had worked her way up from an orphan to the president of a branch of a multinational corporation. Her personal sorrows were something she didn't need to share with outsiders.
