The second prince chuckled: "Zhou Chen is a great master and is not burdened by fame and fortune, but others are different. He is not the only one in the Zhenguo Palace. He will definitely marry a wife and have children in the future. Even for the sake of future generations, he
You have to make a choice, right?"
Xie Bian said: "That's the truth, but can it be done?"
"Who knows, I just tried my best, but he didn't agree to the prince. Instead, he came to me first, saying that my chances should be greater than the prince's, and it depends on whether I can persuade him."
He didn't expect to be able to subdue Zhou Chen. The Grand Master was also the Duke of the Kingdom. How could he be subdued by the prince who was not even a prince? He wanted to win over. At least between the prince and him, Zhou Chen could favor him.
Will suffice.
At this time, Fan Wujiu opened the door and walked in.
"Your Highness, Duke Zhen Guo has already set off and should arrive soon."
The second prince suddenly became energetic: "Okay, let's get someone to tidy up this place immediately, and then prepare to serve wine and food."
…………
Inside the carriage, Zhou Chen was closing his eyes and concentrating when the carriage suddenly stopped.
"Master, Yishiju has arrived."
Zhou Chen opened his eyes and got out of the carriage. As soon as he got off the carriage, he saw the second prince coming up with Xie Bian.
"I've met Duke Zhen Guo."
Zhou Chen nodded and replied: "Your Highness."
Looking at the passers-by around him and the guests in Yishi Residence, he was slightly surprised.
"I thought His Highness would clean up the streets."
The second prince smiled and said: "I did have this idea, but I felt that the Duke would not like to be so public and would prefer to have fun with the people, so I didn't do anything."
"Your Highness is quite magnanimous."
"It's okay not to be frank in front of the Duke. What can I hide from your eyes?"
The second prince complimented him, and then said politely: "The food and wine are ready, Duke Zhen, please."
"Your Highness, please."
Zhou Chen walked into Yishi Residence with the second prince, and went directly to the private room upstairs.
After sitting down, the second prince was very enthusiastic and said nice words again and again. He showed respect but did not lower his attitude much.
"What happened before..."
"Your Highness, that matter has long since passed, so we won't talk about it anymore."
"Yes, yes, look at what I said, it's long past, why are you bringing it up?"
The second prince chuckled, he could see that Zhou Chen really didn't take what happened that night to heart.
"The Duke's conduct is noble and admirable."
Zhou Chen said: "Then your Highness is wrong. I am not a person of noble character. Instead, I am a person who must retaliate. I will not offend anyone unless they offend me. If someone offends me, I will retaliate twice as much."
"I will not offend others unless they offend me. If someone offends me, I will retaliate twice as much. Well said, well said."
The second prince repeated Zhou Chen's words, clapped his hands and praised him.
"I heard that when the Duke was in the Northern Qi Dynasty, he had been friends with Mr. Zhuang Mohan, a great literary figure. In my opinion, the Duke's literary talent is no worse than Mr. Zhuang."
"It is true that Mr. Zhuang and I have been friends for many years, but compared to Mr. Zhuang, who is a well-known scholar in literature, our level is still not as good as that of Mr. Zhuang."
Zhou Chen considered himself to be as knowledgeable and knowledgeable as Zhuang Mohan, but his enthusiasm and pursuit of literature were far inferior to Zhuang Mohan's.
The second prince is a talkative person, and his words are decent and pleasant, so the two of them chatted very smoothly at the dinner table. During the exchange of cups and cups, they became a little closer.
This result made the second prince very satisfied. Although Zhou Chen never said a word in his favor, it made him feel at ease. He did not think that he had much charm to make the great master bow down and worship him.
The two were drinking and talking when suddenly someone knocked on their door.
"Come in."
The person who came in was Xie Bi'an. He walked up to the second prince and whispered a few words in the second prince's ear, causing the second prince's expression to change immediately.
After hearing this, the second prince looked at Zhou Chen and said.
"Something happened in Kyoto recently, and the Duke must have heard about it. My aunt's daughter, Princess Lin Wan'er, and Uncle Si Nan's illegitimate son Fan Xian were granted a marriage by Your Majesty. Fan Xian just arrived in Kyoto yesterday. By coincidence,
, just now, he, Fan Ruoruo and Fan Sizhe from Fan Mansion also arrived at Yishi Residence, and are now outside."
As soon as he spoke, he was suddenly startled.
Such a coincidence?
Today Zhou Chen asked him to come to Yishiju, and Fan Xian also came to Yishiju. How could it be such a coincidence? Could it be that Zhou Chen had arranged it?
But he quickly rejected it in his heart. When he received the reply yesterday, Fan Xian had just entered Kyoto. No matter how powerful Zhou Chen was, he couldn't predict the future, right?
It must be a coincidence.
