Chapter 153: Want Both

Lv Fang hesitated for a moment and finally said, "Will it be inconvenient for you, for example, is your family here in the Western Regions?"

Fang Chun shook her head, "I am an orphan. Princess Jin Hong took me in. There is nothing inconvenient, but... I actually really want to go to Great Zhou to see."

Lv Fang raised his eyebrows and said, "If you are willing, you can ask that Princess Jin Hong to see if she is willing to let you go. If you are not willing, just pretend I didn't say it. I really appreciate your ability to handle things."

"I will ask the Princess's meaning later."

Fang Chun responded.

After sending the people to the Lion family, Fang Chun hurried toward the Imperial Palace of the Buddha Capital. In a quiet garden, Princess Jin Hong was holding a watering can and watering the flowers.

This princess looked to be twenty-three or twenty-four years old. She had the unique appearance of the Western Regions, giving people a feeling of exotic style, especially her pair of water-blue pupils, which were very beautiful.

Princesses of this age were generally betrothed.

But Princess Jin Hong was an exception. Because of her intelligence, she was favored by the Semi-Buddha Wu Zhi, and people in the royal family were very polite to her, so she had a lot of say.

With one word from her, the trial ground was advanced.

Even if some people opposed it, saying that it was lowering their posture too much for Lv Fang, she insisted on it, and in the end, the royal family of the Buddha Kingdom followed her words.

She was like the agent of the Semi-Buddha Wu Zhi.

"Your Highness Jin Hong."

Fang Chun bowed.

Princess Jin Hong turned her head and looked. Seeing it was Fang Chun, she was slightly stunned, handed the watering can in her hand to the accompanying palace maid, and asked in confusion:

"Why are you here? Isn't today the day Lv Fang comes out of the trial ground? Why aren't you waiting by his side? What are you here for?"

Fang Chun first told her that Lv Fang had saved Zhao Qingzhu and Liu Yifeng from the special place in the trial ground.

Jin Hong smiled and said, "As expected of the Lord Wenguan Hou of Great Zhou. In such a special place as the 'Punishment Ground,' he was actually able to save people. I remember he is really a Sixth Rank Scholar."

Fang Chun nodded, "He is now a Sixth Rank, Second Stage Scholar. Just now, he suddenly asked me if I wanted to go to Great Zhou with him, saying he appreciated my ability to handle things."

"Oh." Jin Hong looked at Fang Chun with a half-smile and said, "Then what do you mean? Oh my, I'm really confused. You must really want to go, right?"

Fang Chun shook her head and said, "Whether I go or not, I'm fine either way."

Jin Hong smiled, "That's because you don't understand this Lord Wenguan Hou. If you knew his deeds, I'm afraid that even if I tied you up, you would definitely follow him to Great Zhou."

"Didn't I give you a copy of the Great Zhou elegant literature *Dream of the Red Chamber* before? I remember you seemed to like it very much at the time."

Hearing this, Fang Chun revealed a smile. She herself yearned for Great Zhou, and after seeing the previous elegant literature *Dream of the Red Chamber*, she was even more curious.

What kind of place was this Great Zhou, which was called the Heavenly Dynasty?

Jin Hong smiled and said, "The elegant literature *Dream of the Red Chamber* was written by him. I also learned about it not long ago. It's very exaggerated, right? Originally, I thought he would be a wise man, but he is much younger than I imagined."

"He wrote the elegant literature *Dream of the Red Chamber*?"

Fang Chun was somewhat surprised.

Jin Hong shook her head with a smile, "This is not the most exaggerated part. Do you know? Besides writing the elegant literature *Dream of the Red Chamber*, in about a year, he also wrote three elegant literature stories one after another."

"These elegant literature stories, without exception, are household names."

"Besides these, this Lord Wenguan Hou has also repeatedly created phenomenal poems. Do you dare to believe that there is such a person in the world?"

Fang Chun was shocked by what Jin Hong said. After a brief contact with Lv Fang, she only felt that he was a powerful figure in Great Zhou. She really didn't expect him to be so legendary.

Now she understood why Lv Fang could be named Lord Wenguan Hou at a young age. Such a legendary figure, no matter where he was placed, was destined to be dazzling.

Jin Hong pretended to sigh in distress and said, "Looking at your appearance, you are very tempted to go to Great Zhou with him. If you are willing to go, then go. Honestly, if I were you, I would also want to go."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Fang Chun said thank you.

Whether it was out of curiosity or some other mood, she really wanted to go to Great Zhou and also wanted to understand this legendary figure, Lv Fang.

Jin Hong nodded, "If you go, if you don't live well, you can come back. I will always welcome you here."

In a residence in the Lion family's ancient castle.

"Are you alright?"

Lv Fang looked at Lv Ling, who had finished talking with her biological parents, and whose eyes were swollen from crying. He stepped forward with a heartache to ask.

"Thank you, Brother."

Lv Ling hugged Lv Fang subconsciously. Soon, she reacted. Her biological parents were standing right beside her, so she hurriedly let go as if she had been electrocuted. Her face turned bright red, and she lowered her head to look at her toes, not daring to raise her head at all.

Liu Yifeng coughed twice, looked at Lv Fang, and said, "This time it really is thanks to you. I forgot to ask, are you married? Looking at your age, it doesn't seem very big..."

Lv Fang gave a bitter smile, "I'm not married yet. I'm twenty-one years old."

Zhao Qingzhu nodded with satisfaction:

"At twenty-one, you became a Lord Wenguan Hou on your own. You are really young and promising. You were able to risk entering the Punishment Ground for Ling'er, even though I reminded you many times that it would be very dangerous and told you not to come, you still insisted on coming for Ling'er."

"I think your feelings for Ling'er are very deep. Do you treat Ling'er as a sister or...?"

As parents, she was quite optimistic about Lv Fang. She could also see Lv Ling's liking for Lv Fang. If these two could become a couple, it would be even better.

Because they were parents and elders, it was good to speak directly about such things.

Even if both sides didn't mean that, it didn't matter, as long as they didn't delay each other. When talking in the room, she had also asked her daughter Ling'er what she meant.

Although Lv Ling didn't say it directly, she was a bit shy, but Zhao Qingzhu roughly understood what was going on, so she asked this question.

Lv Fang was stunned. Before, he had treated Lv Ling as a sister. After knowing her identity, because he was in a hurry to cultivate, he didn't think about it. Suddenly being asked this by Liu Yifeng and Zhao Qingzhu, he stammered for a long time and didn't know what to say.

To say whether he liked Lv Ling?

Are you kidding!

For Lv Ling, he was willing to risk going to the Punishment Ground; it was impossible for him not to care about her.

But to get married, he really hadn't thought about it before. In this instant, he inexplicably thought of Li Yu.

Uh... can he have both?

These two women were both very important people to him. He didn't want to lose either of them. Yes! That's right, he liked both of them.

After sorting out his mood, Lv Fang said solemnly, "Because I didn't know Ling'er's background before, I treated her as a sister. At that time, I fell in love with a woman."

Lv Ling said somewhat disappointedly, "Is it Sister Li Yu?" ===== CHAPTER 154 =====
