"You are the wise king."
The young man's voice was clear and sweet, and his expression was as innocent as a child.
In fact, he is not too young, he is fifteen or sixteen years old. When he was fifteen or sixteen, he was already cheating... Pah, he had already stopped playing and started to work in the court.
King Xian looked at the young man in front of him. The young man stepped forward and bowed deeply.
"I heard from Sister Jiuling that you took good care of her in the past." He said, and raised his head with a twinkle in his eyes, "Thank you, Your Highness."
There were no exaggerated words of gratitude, just this one thank you and the sincerity in the eyes, which made King Hyeon feel overjoyed.
"Of course I should." He said with a smile, "Your sister often praises you."
Fang Chengyu's face suddenly brightened.
He did not ask questions and was not humble.
"Nine is better," he said with some shyness.
King Xian's eyes became brighter, and he could only sigh in his heart.
Miss Jun walked forward with a smile.
"Your Highness, we will take our leave now," she said.
King Xian nodded with a smile.
"Go ahead. I should have held a banquet to welcome you, but you are tired from the journey and it will be even more tiring to sit at the same table with me. Come to my house with your sister another day and we will meet again." He said.
Fang Chengyu smiled and shook his head.
"No," he said, looking at King Xian seriously, "I think Your Highness is approachable and not restrained at all."
Zhu Zan rolled his eyes behind him.
King Xian laughed.
"I can see it, I can see it." He smiled, "But family members are the most respected, so you should get together with your family first, they are all waiting."
Fang Chengyu was about to say something, but Zhu Zan waved his hands.
"That's enough." He frowned and said, "Go back quickly."
Fang Chengyu smiled and nodded at him.
"Yes, brother," he said.
King Xian couldn't help but chuckle.
Fang Chengyu suddenly felt a little uneasy.
"I, I used to call you brother, I'm used to it." He said, "So, do you want to call me brother-in-law?"
What do you mean you're used to calling me brother? Stop it.
Zhu Zan sneered and waved his hands.
"No, no, just go away," he said.
Fang Chengyu said nothing more and obediently retreated to Miss Jun's side. Miss Jun bowed to King Xian again and took him out.
The house returned to silence, but downstairs there was a bustle. Prince Xian stood by the window and watched Miss Jun get into the car. Fang Chengyu also stopped riding his horse and followed her into the car. The group headed towards the city in a bustling atmosphere.
He clicked his tongue a few times.
"What a tender and lovely young man." He said, and then turned to look at Zhu Zan, frowning with a look of disdain, "Look at how rough you look! You are so ugly in comparison."
Zhu Zan was furious.
"You are blind, he is not as good-looking as me!" he said, "I am naturally beautiful and handsome, unlike this guy who is covered in gold and silver and clings to clothes like a butterfly."
King Xian made a vomiting gesture.
"Try it again." Zhu Zan glared at him angrily, "Do you think I won't dare to hit you just because I call you Your Highness?"
King Xian coughed.
"I'm doing this for your own good." He said seriously, holding Zhu Zan's shoulders and gesturing up and down with his hands, "Look, although you are naturally beautiful and handsome, a woman can't be captured by just your looks. You have to be good-looking and eloquent. Look at this kid, he speaks so well, and one sentence can make people happy. No wonder Miss Jun said he is the most important person to her. If this continues..."
He looked at Zhu Zan with a hint of pity.
"You're about to be dumped at your age."
Zhu Zan put his backhand on his shoulder.
King Xian cried out in pain.
“It hurts, it hurts.”
Zhu Zansi did not stop at all.
"Thanks to your good wishes, Your Highness." He said with a smile, "I couldn't ask for more."
…
When night fell, the bustle in Jiuling Hall faded away. Manager Liu took the managers of the Beijing bank and left. Chen Qi also drank too much and was helped back to his room by the maids.
Fang Jinxiu also said goodbye and left.
"She doesn't like to talk now." Miss Jun said.
Since entering the door, Fang Jinxiu has not spoken more than three sentences to Fang Chengyu, and they were all polite words like "thank you for your hard work", without any intimacy and joy of a brother and sister meeting each other.
"She arranged your accommodation personally, and there are four layers of bedding." Miss Jun said with a smile.
Fang Chengyu also laughed.
"She didn't like to talk at home before," he said. "Now it's natural. I don't think it's bad. If she talked to me affectionately, I would be uncomfortable."
Miss Jun raised her hand to touch Fang Chengyu's head, but suddenly found that she couldn't reach it enough.
“It’s growing so fast,” she laughed.
Fang Chengyu quickly bent down and half-knelt, blinking and looking at her.
Miss Jun laughed and patted his head.
"Go and have a rest. You came here so quickly and the journey must have been tiring," she said.
Fang Chengyu shook his head.
"It's not hard. When people are happy, they are in high spirits. How can it be hard?" He smiled and said, "Jiulingjiuling, please tell me more about what you wrote in the letter about Zhangqing Mountain. I didn't tell you in detail at that time."
Miss Jun was about to speak with a smile when a heavy cough was heard from outside the door.
"Brother is here." Fang Chengyu turned around and said happily.
Zhu Zan said "oh" and walked in.
"I never thought I could still call you brother now." Fang Chengyu said with a smile, picking up the wine on the table, "I thought it was just a one-time encounter, but it turns out we will meet again in the future."
"Why would a kid drink that?" Zhu Zan said, taking the wine glass from his hand and drinking it all in one gulp. "Go to bed now."
Fang Chengyu said "Oh".
"Yes, I'll listen to my brother." He said, glancing at Miss Jun.
"Why are you so fierce?" Miss Jun said.
Zhu Zan clicked his tongue.
"Why am I so fierce? Don't I always talk like this?" he said.
Fang Chengyu quickly reached out and pulled Miss Jun's sleeve.
"Brother is doing this for my own good." He said, "I shouldn't have drunk. I always remember your advice, Jiu Ling, to only drink water and not alcohol. It's just that I saw that brother was a little excited just now."
Miss Jun smiled.
"Okay, go and rest," she said.
"My father and mother will invite you to their house tomorrow." Zhu Zan said again.
Fang Chengyu nodded quickly.
"Jiuling also told me that he would go tomorrow," he said.
Zhu Zan nodded.
"Let's take a rest too." He said to Miss Jun.
Miss Jun looked at him with a strange expression.
Fang Chengyu was also slightly surprised.
"Although the marriage is fake, I live here, so I have to make it look good." Zhu Zan said calmly, and then walked back.
In order to guard against Lu Yunqi, Zhu Zan has been staying in Jiulingtang these days, but of course he does not live with her.
Or maybe she had something to say, Miss Jun nodded to Fang Chengyu.
"Go ahead," she said.
Fang Chengyu also nodded with a smile and walked out. He stood in the corridor and watched Zhu Zan staggering into Miss Jun's room. The young man raised his eyebrows under the night light.
"This brother is much more shameless than that brother," he said to himself.
