Half an hour passed in a blink of an eye. Qin Xuan and Jiang Yuli asked several questions, and Xiao Fan answered them easily. Moreover, the poems he wrote were all excellent.
"As for poetry, I'm afraid no one in the Tianlong Empire can rival you."
Qin Xuan praised, he could find no fault with Xiao Fan's poetry.
Xiao Fan smiled slightly.
Are you kidding? Behind him stand countless poets and lyricists from the past five thousand years of Chinese history, many of whom have left their names in history.
Qin Xuan pondered and said, "Recently, a minister pointed out that it is inappropriate for my father to have only one child and for me to have only the Crown Princess."
Jiang Yuli's expression remained normal.
Qin Xuan had already told her this.
Xiao Fan frowned slightly and said, "Your Highness, are you planning to take in a concubine? The more people who know, the greater the risk of leaks."
In the Tianlong Empire, the prince's wife is called the consort, and his concubines are called the Liangdi and the talented woman.
Generally, there is one Crown Princess, one to two Consorts-in-Law, three to four Talented Ladies, and the Crown Prince generally has no more than six women.
When you become an emperor, you can have as many women as you want in your harem, but the prince is the heir to the throne and has a lot to learn. He cannot be too greedy for women.
"It is indeed as you said. The more people know, the greater the risk of leaks. Therefore, I will not take a concubine for the time being."
"Write me a poem, explaining that I have a deep affection for the Crown Princess and that she is the only one in my heart who I don't want to take a concubine."
Qin Xuan spoke.
Xiao Fan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
If Qin Xuan took a concubine, he would definitely be the one who suffered.
Of course, this is not the most important thing.
His spiritual sea cultivation has reached the perfect level, and his body is strong enough that he can handle it.
But the concubine the prince takes may not be beautiful. In order to win over some people, the concubine may be of very ordinary appearance.
He is used to eating delicacies from land and sea, so he is not happy to eat steamed buns.
Jiang Yuli stared at Qin Xuan in a daze. Why did Qin Xuan change his mind?
"Your Highness, will others suspect that this wasn't your doing?"
Xiao Fan coughed lightly.
Qin Xuan said unhappily, "So what if that's the case? You're the Crown Prince's tutor, so it's only natural for me to ask you to write."
"Throughout the dynasties, do you think all the kings were both civil and military?"
Xiao Fan thought for a moment and said, "Your Highness, I think one sentence will suffice, no poem is needed. I wish to win the heart of one person, and to be with him till we grow old together."
Qin Xuan and Jiang Yuli were both stunned.
"I wish to win the heart of one person and stay with him till we grow old together."
Jiang Yuli murmured to herself, her heart trembling slightly.
Of course, she longed for such a relationship, but she was marrying the prince, so such a relationship was ultimately just a luxury.
"Anything else?"
Qin Xuan asked.
Xiao Fan asked doubtfully, "Is this sentence not acceptable? Let me think about it. How about you not write the poem, Your Highness, and let Yu Li write it instead?"
Jiang Yuli looked at Xiao Fan in confusion.
"Shangxie, I wish to know you, and live a long and happy life together."
"The mountains are gone, the rivers are dry. Thunder roars in winter, snow falls in summer. Only when heaven and earth unite, will I dare to break off my relationship with you."
Xiao Fan recited the poem.
"Your Highness, the Crown Princess knows you want to take a concubine, so she wrote this to you. Will you be touched and put the matter on hold?"
Qin Xuan and the others were silent for a long time.
This song is another hit.
After a long while, Qin Xuan said, "Xiao Fan, I really want to open your head and see what's going on with your head."
"Yu Li, give this to me. I am so moved that I will not take a concubine for the time being. No one can say anything against it."
Jiang Yuli said, "This poem I brought out is indeed better. If you bring out the previous one, Your Highness, it might have the opposite effect."
Qin Xuan nodded.
If he said he only favored Jiang Yuli, wouldn't many ministers be anxious to death? The emperor's exclusive favor to one person was not necessarily a good thing for the regime.
"Xiao Fan, do you know who this concubine would be if I wanted to take one?"
Qin Xuan asked.
Xiao Fan shook his head: "Your Highness, I can't guess that."
Qin Xuan waved his hand, and countless points of light appeared. They quickly formed the figure of a woman, who looked almost like a real person.
The woman's appearance is also very high.
There is a slight gap between her and Qin Xuan, and she is between the middle and upper ranks of Jiang Yuli, but she and Jiang Yuli give people different feelings.
Jiang Yuli gave Xiao Fan the impression of a lady from a noble family.
This woman gave Xiao Fan the feeling that she was out of this world and like an immortal.
"She is Nangong Suxin, the youngest daughter of the Marquis of Zhenyuan."
"She has been training at Shangqing Palace since she was young, and her teacher is Gongsun Lan, a Martial Emperor-level expert. Gongsun Lan is extremely powerful, and she is a top-notch formation master."
Qin Xuan said lightly.
Xiao Fan wanted to slap himself. What the hell was he talking about?
Wouldn’t it be nice to let Qin Xuan marry Nangong Suxin as his concubine?
"Do you regret it?"
Qin Xuan said with a half-smile.
Xiao Fan said sullenly, "Your Highness, next time you ask me for a poem like this, first tell me what the girl you want to marry looks like."
"So I can decide whether I can write poetry or not."
Qin Xuan said unhappily, "Don't let your imagination run wild! Zhenyuan Hou is a Martial Emperor with a very high talent. It's hard to say whether he has any ulterior motives."
"Take Nangong Suxin as a concubine. If it is handled well, Shangqing Palace and Zhenyuan Hou may win her over together. If it is not handled well, it will be very troublesome."
Jiang Yuli asked, "Mr. Xiao, why are your poems so inconsistent with your words and actions? Which one is you?"
Qin Xuan looked at Jiang Yuli.
"Yu Li, you can't fall in love with Xiao Fan. Xiao Fan is fine the way he is. He can't be devoted to you alone."
Qin Xuan reminded Jiang Yuli.
Jiang Yuli quickly said, "Your Highness, I...I didn't. I'm just a little curious as to why he could come up with these poems."
Qin Xuan smiled and said, "Although he is good at this, he has no cultivation. I think a stronger cultivation is better."
