As long as I, Fan Mou, am here, no one will dare kill a prisoner…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is that so?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hai Tang Duoduo raised an eyebrow, sounding somewhat defiant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fan Xian said coolly: “If you don’t believe it, go ahead and try.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hai Tang Duoduo glanced at Fu Hao and the other two guards, forced to admit that these three truly possessed remarkable strength—they each radiated a lethal threat to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Three ninth-rank experts? Young Master Fan, what a grand display!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hai Tang Duoduo said coolly: “But the journey is still long—there will always be opportunities…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need to look for opportunities!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fan Xian cut her off without hesitation, gazing at the slightly frowning Hai Tang Duoduo with calmness: “I can give you this opportunity right now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he glanced at the three guards beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Hao and the other two immediately bowed respectfully and withdrew into the convoy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Tiger Guards and escorts protecting the convoy exchanged glances, then sheathed their blades one by one, their eyes fixed intently on Young Master Fan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fan Xian spoke with serene composure: “Xiao En is in the carriage behind me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hai Tang Duoduo frowned, utterly confused by Fan Xian’s intentions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She believed he had gathered three ninth-rank experts—but for Fan Xian himself to be a ninth-rank? That was utterly absurd!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, everyone knew this Young Master Fan was merely seventeen years old!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could there possibly be a ninth-rank at seventeen?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hai Tang Duoduo didn’t believe it. She drew another short axe from her waist, fixed her gaze on Fan Xian, and said: “Since you’re so arrogant… then I won’t be polite!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a light tap of her toe, her figure shot forward like a gale toward Fan Xian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The compact, sharp axe tore through the air, carving a curved arc as it slashed violently toward Fan Xian’s neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not dodging?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the handsome young lord seated calmly on his horse, Hai Tang Duoduo felt a flicker of doubt and anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though she was furious at his arrogance, she had neither the will nor the courage to kill such an important figure of the Southern Qing delegation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment’s hesitation, she eased her force slightly, twisted the axe blade, and shifted her target to Fan Xian’s shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing this, Fan Xian’s lips curled slightly, and a faint smile glimmered in his dark eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next instant, a surging aura erupted from him, solidifying like a tangible force that pressed in from all sides, causing the air around to ripple with distortion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling the overwhelming pressure—massive as a mountain, scorching as fire—Hai Tang Duoduo’s face filled with shock as she stared unbelievingly at Fan Xian on the horse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the direct disciple of Grand Master Ku He, no one knew the aura of a Grand Master better than she did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the aura radiating from Fan Xian was not only equal to her master Ku He’s—it subtly surpassed it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…How is this possible?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could Fan Xian be a Grand Master?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could there be a Grand Master so young?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Hai Tang Duoduo reeled in shock, her movements froze for an instant under the weight of his aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, Fan Xian on the horse finally moved—his long, powerful hand shot out like lightning, striking the axe from her grip, then seizing her collar and pinning her onto the horse’s back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From Hai Tang Duoduo’s perspective, her vision blurred—suddenly, the handsome young lord vanished, replaced by muddy horse legs and a dirt-strewn, earthy ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So fast!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First stunned, then feeling the crushing pressure on her back, she realized her humiliating predicament.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her cheeks flushed crimson; she surged her Qi, struggled fiercely, and shouted in shame and fury: “Fan Xian, let go of me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, everyone—including the three personal guards—wore strange expressions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially Fu Hao, who had just tried to intervene, scratched his head in embarrassment and whispered, “Lao Nie, does the young master have feelings for this Northern Qi Holy Maiden?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shut up!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nie Kang shot him a glare, then fixed his gaze downward, nose to eyes, eyes to mouth, mouth to heart—clearly pretending he saw nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Hao’s hushed voice reached Fan Xian’s ears; his expression stiffened, realizing the posture was slightly inappropriate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, he suppressed any reaction, gripping Hai Tang Duoduo’s wrist and keeping her pinned to the horse’s back, gazing at her struggling back and speaking calmly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go back and tell Ku He—if you want to kill Xiao En under my watch, let him come himself!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he raised his hand and flung her several zhang away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hai Tang Duoduo twisted her waist, spun half a circle midair, and landed steadily on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Excellent, Young Master Fan!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hai Tang Duoduo gazed deeply at Fan Xian: “Truly, you hide your depths well!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She bowed slightly, picked up her short axe, and walked away without looking back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Hao and the other two exchanged glances, then cautiously approached: “Young Master, are you really letting her go?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What else should I do?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fan Xian glanced at the three.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Hao grinned and whispered: “If you like the title ‘Holy Maiden,’ Old Fu will go capture her for you tonight to serve—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thwack!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he finished, Fan Xian gave him a sharp tap on the head, scolding: “Serve your head? If you’re so capable, don’t just boast in front of your master—go tell Wan’er about it when we get back, how about that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Hao turned pale with alarm, clamping his mouth shut and daring not to speak another word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nie Kang and Shi Hanwu stifled their laughter, watching Fu Hao with smug amusement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fan Xian’s expression softened slightly: “What’s a ninth-rank Holy Maiden? Your true opponent is Grand Master Ku He!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here he paused, then glanced toward the faint glimmer of lake light beyond the low cedar grove: “But before that, we must deal with the army sent by Shang Shan Hu…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Hao and the other three perked up immediately, smiling and bowing: “We won’t disgrace your trust!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fan Xian said calmly: “Go.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Young Master!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three bowed and strode off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fan Xian turned to Wang Qinian, who was monitoring Xiao En inside the carriage: “Set up camp here, rest for a while. Wait for Fu Hao and the others to clear the roadblock before continuing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Young Master.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Qinian bowed and left the carriage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, faint shouts and screams echoed from within the low cedar grove.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fan Xian had no concern for the battle outside—the men he had trained, even Wang Qinian, who specialized in lightness skills, could now spar with a Grand Master, let alone these three battle-hardened core subordinates!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long before Lin Yu connected this world, these three had already been above ninth-rank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, each had been injected with serum and granted abilities from other worlds—even Ku He himself would likely not be their match!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, as Fan Xian rested in the carriage, he opened the chat group in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The topic had long shifted from Xiang Yunye’s gossip to Li Shimin’s Shu Han.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Group members had turned into keyboard warriors, offering Li Shimin advice in a cacophony of voices.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to the significant time-speed difference between the Three Kingdoms world and the chat group, while offline, Li Shimin had already lived through several months in those twenty days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With supplies from He Jingfeng and Bai Yu Group, the people of Shu Han endured the winter—the most prosperous of their lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not a single soul starved to death across the entire nation!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To the people of that era, this was an unimaginable miracle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for those who froze to death, there were many—but not from lack of food or clothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had drunk too much on snowy nights, passed out on streets and alleys, then been buried under snowfall, unseen by passersby, and frozen solid overnight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a sense, this was a bizarre way to die—only possible in a land so wealthy that people could drink freely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neither court nor commoners saw anything wrong; they even considered it a sign of golden age prosperity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Shimin was furious—he rebuked the ministers who praised his achievements, then swiftly reinstated the night curfew during snowstorms and issued a snow-clearing decree to prevent further tragedies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This debate began with Li Shimin complaining about the incident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He never imagined his well-intentioned lifting of the curfew would indirectly cause hundreds of deaths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Worse, the court’s attitude toward the matter chilled him—no one seemed to hold the emperor or the court responsible for those hundreds of lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Su Haoming: To be fair, by the standards of that era, you bear no responsibility…】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Li Shimin: But I’ve seen better times—how can I settle for mediocrity based on outdated norms?】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Li Shimin: Take He Brother’s New China—if dozens froze to death in a single city, wouldn’t many officials be held accountable?】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【He Jingfeng: Dozens?…】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【He Jingfeng: That would cause an earthquake.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【He Jingfeng: But comparing my world to Shu Han is frankly unfair.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【He Jingfeng: Whether in resources, technological development, or administrative systems, Shu Han hasn’t even reached the peak of feudal society, let alone modern standards.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Li Shimin: I know that—but after seeing efficiency and responsibility in better systems, looking at my officials who have zero sense of duty makes me furious!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Li Shimin: How can I govern Shu Han alongside these vermin?!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Su Haoming: ……]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was clear that Li Shimin was truly angry—he even used the imperial “I.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Su Haoming: Not that bad, not that bad!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Su Haoming: Now is the time to use talent; among the short, pick the tallest—just make do for now!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Su Haoming: Shu Han’s civil and military officials were already quite good; at least they upheld the highest moral standards of the time.
