Chapter 164: The Red Luan Star Moves, Fate of Peach Blossom
Xiao Yanci sat up straight, his expression more serious than ever before.
"In a few days, the palace will select concubines for me and my two brothers. I have set my eyes on a girl and I only want to marry her. If my father knows that Master has returned to the capital, he will definitely summon you to the palace. Then, please tell me your fortune and help me get married."
Although the old monk Wuchen does not restrain his appetite and does not care about his appearance, and seems to have nothing to do with a high-level monk, this man actually has some skills.
In his early years, before Emperor Defeng ascended the throne, he had two divinations read by him, and each divination was extremely accurate.
Later, when Xiao Yanci was born, Wu Chen said that he was destined to be with him, and he also read his fortune, which was also accurate to the letter.
Although Xiao Yanci verbally disparaged him as a swindler and old bald donkey, he actually had to admire his ability.
More than a month ago, Xiao Yanci sent people to look for him.
Because since then, he has had feelings for Lu Zhiran.
My father has great faith in the old monk Wuchen. If he personally predicts the fate and arranges a marriage for me and Lu Zhiran, my father will definitely give it more consideration.
If Xiao Yanqing wants to take advantage of her again, it's just a pipe dream!
The matter of selecting a concubine was suddenly brought forward, and Xiao Yanci thought that he would not be able to find the old bald donkey, but unexpectedly, he suddenly showed up.
Wu Chen raised his eyebrows, "It's alright, old monk. If there's any problem, it's the master. You are really good."
Xiao Yanci played dumb, "How can words on the chessboard count? You are a magnanimous person, so you naturally won't care about these details."
"I've calculated that someone in the capital is destined to be in love, and it turns out to be you. It's one thing for you to try to deceive the emperor, but you're actually trying to drag me into this. How audacious!"
Xiao Yanci remained calm, "This matter has nothing to do with the fate of the nation. It's just a small selfish motive of mine. It's not something that can be considered reckless."
Wu Chen snorted coldly, "What does that have to do with me?"
"Master, haven't you always wanted to take me in as your disciple? If you can help me accomplish this, I will take you as my disciple."
"You have already accepted me as your master, so you must have shaved your head and become a monk. And you still want to marry a princess? What are you dreaming of?"
Xiao Yanci glanced at his wine bag and said, "Even if you become a monk, you still drink wine and eat meat. So what if I marry and have children?"
Wu Chen: ...
"Can it be the same?"
"What's the difference?"
Wu Chen was stunned by his question and was speechless for a moment.
"I wanted to take you in as my disciple, but you were extremely reluctant. Now that you have become worldly-minded, you are no longer suitable to join my Buddhist sect."
Xiao Yanci glanced at the chessboard and said, "If you can help me with this, I'll be happy to play chess with you anytime you want!"
Playing chess is one of his lifelong hobbies, but he is a terrible chess player and no one is willing to play against him.
"That won't do either. I'm a monk. Monks don't tell lies, and I certainly won't do anything that would deceive the emperor."
"Whatever conditions you have, feel free to ask. As long as I can deliver, I will definitely not refuse."
Wu Chen was very surprised to see him like this.
"What kind of beauty, a fairy from heaven, could be so charming to a boy like you who looks so arrogant?"
Xiao Yanci raised the corners of his lips slightly, revealing a smile.
"She is very good. No other woman can compare to her."
Wu Chen got goosebumps all over the floor.
My goodness, this guy is so disgusting when he has worldly desires.
"I won't act like a matchmaker. If you two become a couple with bad blood, wouldn't that be my fault?"
Xiao Yanci said sincerely, "If I marry her, I will definitely give her the best things in the world and will never let her suffer even the slightest injustice."
Wu Chen showed disdain, as if he had no choice but to give in. "Who is she? Do you have her birth date?"
Xiao Yanci was well prepared and immediately presented it respectfully with both hands, with a flattering look on his face.
Wu Chen snorted, "Let me be clear, if she's not compatible with you, then even if you talk the talk to the heavens, I won't agree to this. If this leads to an ill-fated relationship and damages your merits, then that would be a sin!"
Xiao Yanci was full of determination and confidence.
"She is my destined one. There is no way our horoscopes are incompatible."
Wu Chen opened the birth chart and made hand gestures, as if he was deducing something.
He uttered a soft "Huh", with a strange look on his face.
This fate is quite interesting.
Just as Xiao Yanci was about to ask, there was a commotion outside.
"There's a fire! A pleasure boat has capsized! The fire is huge!"
"Hurry, save them!"
"Huh? Isn't that the Sixth Prince? Who is the woman in his arms?"
Hearing the name of an old acquaintance, Xiao Yanci's eyebrows twitched slightly.
Master Wuchen loves to join in the fun even more than he does. "Let's go and see what's going on first."
Xiao Yanqing struggled desperately in the water. With his swimming ability, he could easily carry one person, but this person kept struggling against him. He sank into the water several times and drank several mouthfuls of water.
Xiao Yanci ordered his men to lower the boat and pull the man out.
Xiao Yanqing and the woman lay on the boat, all wet, and finally got a chance to catch their breath.
Xiao Yanci admired his embarrassment from a high position, "Sixth Brother, have you been experiencing Mercury retrograde lately? You've fallen into the water time and again, and there's always a beautiful woman by your side. Who is this beautiful woman this time?"
When Lu Shiyin's thin clothes came into contact with water, they all stuck to her body, outlining her graceful figure.
Xiao Yanqing immediately blocked it with his body.
He met Xiao Yanci's gaze and spoke provocatively.
"Today, I was invited by the Lady of Pingle County to enjoy the scenery on the lake together. Unfortunately, the pleasure boat took a flood, disturbing the beauty."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yanci's expression changed drastically.
"What did you say?"
When Xiao Yanqing saw his expression change, a hint of pleasure flashed through his heart.
"Thank you, Xiao Qi, for saving my brother and the Princess of Pingle County. Princess, don't worry, now that I have had physical contact with you, I will definitely be responsible for you and will not let you suffer any injustice."
He lowered his head and looked at the person in his arms affectionately, but what he saw was a completely unexpected face. There was also an obvious scar on the face. The wound was blistered and festering, making it look even more creepy.
The double shock made Xiao Yanqing lose his composure instantly, "Why is it you!"
What a good Lu Shiyin, she actually dared to pretend to be Lu Zhiran and make fun of me!
A feeling of anger at being fooled arose in his heart. He reached out and pushed, and with a loud "bang", Lu Shiyin was pushed into the water in a magnificent manner.
"Help, help, help!"
Xiao Yanqing pushed the boatman again, "Hurry up and rescue the people!"
As long as Lu Shiyin is touched by another man, she will not be qualified to enter his door. This is the price she has to pay for daring to plot against him!
Xiao Yanci originally wanted to rush down to save the person, but when he saw the face of the person in the water clearly, he braked abruptly.
He saw all of Xiao Yanqing's actions and immediately understood his intentions.
What a vicious mind.
He was just about to order a maid who could swim to go down and rescue people when several women jumped out from another pleasure boat one after another. They were excellent swimmers and quickly rescued Lu Shiyin successfully.
On that pleasure boat were Xiao Baozhu and Lu Zhiran.
