Chapter 101: Fan Xian

After solving the matter of the Medicine King Sun Simiao, Lin Yu returned to his previous peaceful and happy daily life.

In the backyard of the Yun Mansion, his status could be said to be incomparably noble. All the little girls in the house knew he had good things, and they surrounded him one by one, making him enjoy a bit of family happiness in advance.

Little Dong had lived a hard life before and liked money. She diligently helped Lin Yu knead his shoulders and beat his back, and then held an empty jar, asking him for service fees in a soft voice, not knowing who taught her.

Fortunately, Lin Yu was not short of gold, silver, and jewelry. Throwing a shiny gem casually could make Little Dong happy for a whole day.

Little Ya and Little Nan liked to eat. They liked the food cooked by Xiang Yunye the most before, but after contacting Lin Yu, they were quickly bewitched by the various candies he brought.

Now, these candies had been divided up by them, each accumulating a lot, hidden in their boudoirs.

Xiang Yunye discovered this and immediately confiscated all the candies in the name of his brother, making Little Ya lose her temper with him, and she didn't speak to her brother for half a day.

For this reason, Xiang Yunye also complained to Lin Yu, saying that he didn't bring back candies from next door at the beginning because he was worried that this situation would happen.

Lin Yu hadn't brought up normal children either, knowing he was in the wrong, so he planted Spirit Seeds for the little girls, indicating that this way, they would definitely not eat their teeth bad.

For this kind of arrogant behavior of solving problems from the root, although Xiang Yunye was a bit speechless, he was happy to see it.

Little Xi and Little Bei liked to dance with knives and guns. Hearing Xiang Yunye say that Lin Yu was highly skilled in martial arts, they often pestered him, saying they wanted to learn a move or two.

Lin Yu couldn't stand the coquetry, so he could only pick some simple ones from the cultivation techniques he collected and teach them to these two little girls.

It is worth mentioning that knowledge of cultivation techniques is shared in the chat group.

Xiang Yunye was not without martial arts secret manuals from various worlds, but he was lazy and only wanted to cultivate Immortals, not wanting to practice martial arts, so he had never learned these martial arts, let alone had the qualifications to teach his sister.

Lin Yu hadn't really learned much either, but his realm was high enough. He could learn the martial arts of Under One Person just by looking at it.

Spending a few minutes, he could turn from a novice who knew nothing into a master who gathered the essence of martial arts...

As for the remaining three girls, the big girl had a gentle temperament and was lovable, and was embarrassed to make trouble with her sisters.

Runniang and Yiniang were the oldest. According to the grandmother, they could find a good husband's family in a few years.

At such an age of budding love, they naturally couldn't play with Little Ya and the others, and were even more embarrassed to pester Lin Yu like their sisters.

Fortunately, Lin Yu didn't forget them. Every time he took out good things, he let Little Ya send them the same thing.

Not only that, he also told the three girls directly that he would definitely attend their weddings in the future...

Although it was only for three short days, Lin Yu was quite satisfied with the daily life of the Yun Mansion.

Especially these little girls with different temperaments, which really added a lot of color to his vacation trip.

Of course, apart from daily life, this last day was not without other episodes.

For example, several dukes who were on good terms with Xiang Yunye sent their own children to visit with gifts, visiting Xiang Yunye on the surface, while secretly probing Lin Yu's identity.

But in the end, except for Cheng Chumo, who had the best relationship with Xiang Yunye, the other families returned empty-handed and couldn't find out anything.

As for Cheng Yaojin's son Cheng Chumo, this guy's relationship with Xiang Yunye was indeed deep. Seeing Lin Yu, he didn't act pretentiously, directly kneeling down and saying he wanted to worship him as a teacher.

After being rejected by Lin Yu, Cheng Chumo was not surprised, patted his knees and stood up, changed his words to call Lin Yu senior brother, and said that worshipping a teacher was actually a task given to him by his father, asking Lin Yu not to blame him.

Lin Yu didn't hate Cheng Chumo's temperament, and although he didn't accept him as a disciple, he let him practice martial arts with Little Xi and Little Bei, and taught him a move or two.

Just like that, three days passed in a flash. Lin Yu formally bid farewell to Xiang Yunye and the little girls and returned to his own world.

【Fan Xian: How is it? Did you find the coordinates of the Tang Zhuan world?】

【Lin Yu: No, only found the general direction. It is estimated that it will take another month to lock the position.】

【Su Haoming: So short?】

【Su Haoming: How come my world is five years?】

【Xiang Yunye: Practice makes perfect~】

【Xiang Yunye: My world is closer than yours, Lin Dage's means must have also improved.】

【Fan Xian: @Lin Yu, Lin Dage, Old Yun's side has already been visited, now it should be my turn, right?】

【Lin Yu: Have you found time?】

【Fan Xian: What are you saying, little brother has been waiting for you!】

【He Jingfeng: Better be true 【funny】】

【Fan Xian: That package is true!】

【Fan Xian: Just say whose bed to sweep, even the Eldest Princess is not impossible!】

【Everyone:...】

【Lin Yu: Stop messing around, I'm ready here, can accept the invitation at any time.】

【Fan Xian: Good, wait for me to handle the matter at hand, and I will immediately invite Lin Dage over!】

Closing the chat group, the smile on Fan Xian's face faded, and instead he raised his hand, lifted the curtain, and looked outside the carriage with cold eyes.

The scene shifted from inside the carriage to the outside. Only to see Fan Xian riding in a carriage, under the protection of his personal guard Teng Zijing, rushing all the way to the Liujing River in the west of Kyoto.

Apart from Teng Zijing who was driving the carriage, there were three other guards in the carriage.

These three were all hands recruited by Fan Xian himself, not the arrangement of his foster father Fan Jian in the original work.

Ever since learning the general plot of Joy of Life, Fan Xian began to cultivate his own power.

The Supervision Institute was too flashy, and with Chen Pingping sitting in town for himself, Fan Xian did not get involved.

He chose another path, starting from scratch, recruiting retainers, and gathering talents by various means.

As the son of Sima Fan Jian, recruiting retainers was not difficult for him, at most it would make the concubine Liu Ruyu in the house have some complaints, and blow pillow talk in the old man's ear at night.

Fortunately, the number of retainers Fan Xian needed was small, and in the end, he only recruited three martial artists.

Everyone, including Liu Ruyu, thought Fan Xian was looking for reliable guards for himself, so they didn't care. Only Fan Jian felt that the level of people outside was too poor, and privately suggested Fan Xian accept his arrangement.

Little did they know, Fan Xian wanted these martial artists who had poor talent and were not successful.

For example, the three guards in the carriage included both frustrated swordsmen and disabled veterans who had retired from the front line.

These people were all limited by their talent, and after working hard, they couldn't get a return, and could only feel deep despair.

In this situation, a nobleman suddenly appeared, giving them treatment that exceeded their own abilities, and giving them hope for progress in martial arts, naturally being able to harvest their highest loyalty.

Of course, not everyone would know how to repay kindness, and there was no lack of ungrateful wolves in this world.

Fortunately, Fan Xian had many choices. Martial artists of this level were everywhere in the martial-loving Qing Kingdom.

The three guards who were now accompanying him were the three he had carefully selected and considered most suitable to be his confidants...

Back to the point, Fan Xian's carriage drove along the long street, passed the Wangchun Gate, and arrived at Niulan Street in the west of the city.

There were not many residential houses around Niulan Street, but there were many shops that had fallen into disrepair many years ago, so it got a nickname—Defeated Shop.

It was very quiet here, there were no pedestrians during the day or night, which could be said to be the best place to block the street and knock on the sack.

In the original work, in order to smear his own reputation and withdraw from the political marriage arranged by his father, Fan Xian deliberately went to drink flower wine at Liujing River with the Prince of Jing's son Li Hongcheng, and secretly slipped out of the painting boat in the middle of the night, beating up Guo Baokun, the son of the Minister of Rites, on Niulan Street.

But in this world line, Fan Xian learned the identity of his fiancée in advance, so he didn't do these absurd things.

Not only that, in order to avoid the dilemma in the original work, he also specially went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to brush up a lot of favorability.

Apart from Lin Waner, the illegitimate daughter, his father-in-law Prime Minister Lin Ruofu also had two sons.

The eldest son was named Lin Dabao, who had a serious illness in his childhood, which burned his brain, causing the brain to stop developing from then on, and his intelligence remained at the level of a child.

The second son was named Lin Gong, who was the heir regarded by Lin Ruofu as the future hope of the Lin family.

It was a pity that although Lin Gong's intelligence was normal, it was only at an ordinary level.

In the original work, he could be said to be played by the Eldest Princess in the palm of her hand, not only planning the Niulan Street assassination case behind his father's back, but also losing his own life because of it, dying inexplicably.

It could be said that all the difficult things Fan Xian faced in the early stage came from this Lin Gong.

In order to prevent this from happening again, he specially visited Prime Minister Lin, relying on his foresight, as well as his gentle

Of course, Lin Ruofu was, after all, an old fox long-experienced in officialdom, and Lin Gong already held a preconceived, negative impression of him; even if there were a shred of goodwill, it could not possibly influence their future judgments.

Therefore, while building goodwill, Fan Xian also told the Prime Minister about Lin Gong's secret collusion with the Eldest Princess.

Lin Ruofu did not have much of a reaction at the time, but after Fan Xian left, he immediately summoned Lin Gong back to the Prime Minister's estate and ordered him to reflect on his mistakes behind closed doors.

Thanks to this matter, Lin Gong has been confined to the Prime Minister's estate to this day, completely unable to orchestrate the Niulan Street incident.

But even so, Fan Xian still received the Second Imperial Prince's invitation just like in the original story.

Gazing at the silent Niulan Street outside the carriage, Fan Xian appeared calm on the surface, but sighed inwardly:

"Second brother, oh second brother, don't say I didn't give you a chance. If I still encounter an assassination here without Lin Gong, then don't blame me for settling the account with you..."

Suddenly, Fan Xian twitched his nose, catching a faint, extremely sweet scent.

Having learned about poisons from Fei Jie since childhood, he knew clearly that this was the smell of bitter alkali, a type of arrow poison extracted from frog skin.

"It still came..."

Fan Xian sighed faintly, then lowered his arm, closed the curtain, and said indifferently: "Go. Except for those two female swordsmen, leave none of the rest alive."

"Yes!"

The three guards respectfully accepted the order, then flipped and leaped off the carriage.
