Chapter 165 Shi Xiangyun

Chen Ran slept until noon the next day, then he stretched and got up to wash.

The emperor only assigned him one job and he didn't need to take care of anything else.

The bloody fighting inside and outside the capital had nothing to do with him; he only had to go through fire and water for the emperor.

During lunch, he specifically instructed the kitchen to prepare more high-protein, high-cholesterol, and high-zinc foods.

Don’t know what it is?
Fish, shrimp, seafood, beef and mutton, just eat as much as you want.

Needless to say, a cow was thrown to death in Ningguo Mansion that day.

In the farming era, killing cows was illegal. If wealthy families wanted to eat beef, they would let the cows "fall to death" on their own.

This is similar to committing suicide by shooting eight people in the back.

After eating and drinking, Chen Ran went to the martial arts field to exercise, focusing especially on push-ups and pull-ups.

As it was getting dark, Qin Keqing was about to invite Chen Ran to bathe, but Chen Ran said that the emperor had arranged important work for him and he would not be back that night.

There was no way. Even though she was itching unbearably, she couldn't stop the man from going out and doing things.

This trip lasted for a day and a night.

After coming back, I just eat, drink, sleep and exercise, and don’t do anything else.

This also made Qin Keqing and other sisters even more confused and puzzled.

"Master, what are you busy with all day?"

"After coming back this time, I didn't hear that you slept with any of the sisters."

"Are you tired of me waiting?"

This situation lasted for a month. The situation inside and outside the capital had stabilized, but Chen Ran still went to the palace every other day and stayed overnight.

Qin Keqing couldn't bear it anymore.

That night, after dinner, Chen Ran was taking a shower when the door of his room was pushed open.

Qin Keqing, with a smile on her pretty face, and Qingwen, who was carrying a wooden barrel, walked in.

Chen Ran was surprised. “What is this for?”

"Help the master take a bath."

Qin Keqing didn't know that Chen Ran needed to conserve his energy during this period and devote all his efforts to completing the important task entrusted by the emperor.

She only knew that the master suddenly lost interest in her, and the sense of crisis in her heart instantly exploded.

Qin Keqing's family had no power, and she didn't even have any children.

In this situation, if the master loses interest, her future life will be difficult.

"Sigh~~~"

Seeing Qin Keqing wearing QQ clothing, Chen Ran took a deep breath.

It looks like there will be a fierce battle tonight.

His work has been completed, and the unlucky imperial physician who was singled out has confirmed that Concubine Xian De is pregnant.

Chen Ran no longer needs to go to the palace, at least not openly before the emperor passes away.

Having finished his repetitive work, he wanted to take a few days off to relax.

But when you see Qin Keqing's outfit, you know you can't rest.

Then he saw Qingwen who followed in and looked at Qin Keqing with confusion.

"Master." Qin Keqing smiled and pulled Qingwen, who was looking down, over. "Here is help."

"Yes, I have to work overtime."

Chen Ran sighed, thinking of the fact that besides Qin Keqing and Qingwen, there were so many other girls waiting in line in the mansion, and even those who had not yet married.
Don’t think he only deals with the girls alone.

Ladies from wealthy families like Jia Yingchun, Jia Xichun, and Shi Xiangyun all have personal maids.

These maids were brought into the mansion and were tacitly regarded as concubines.

Under normal circumstances, his business volume would double.

"If there is no system, how can a normal person cope with it? I don't understand how the emperor can handle the three thousand beauties in his harem."

Three thousand beauties in the harem are nothing. Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, Li Longji, had tens of thousands of beauties.

Even if you work all year round, you still have to work for more than a hundred years~~~
Chen Ran had no choice but to open the panel and turn on the health option.

Then it was strengthened in terms of length, width and height.

The length is almost the same, there is no point in adding more.

The increase in width and height is useful, as it allows the girls to finish the battle faster and get more rest time.

After taking a shower, more than half of the water in the tub was gone.

Qin Keqing was very satisfied and supported Qingwen, who had difficulty walking, and went back to rest happily.

For the next few days, Chen Ran rested peacefully in his own house.

Also take time to sort out your progress.

"Qin Keqing, Wang Xifeng, Yuanchun, Yingchun, Tanchun. After all this time, only these few are left?"

He decided to speed up the process, starting with Shi Xiangyun, who had already entered the mansion but had not yet had any intimacy with him.

Shi Xiangyun has a lively personality. Although her parents died when she was young, she is an optimist.

The most miserable time was the few days I spent at the Wei family. I was tortured so badly by the elders of the Wei family that I had to stand for a whole day and my legs were swollen.

Fortunately, when I came to Chen Ran's place, I didn't have to do anything. All day long I either ate and drank well or played with my sisters. My lively personality returned.

However, Shi Xiangyun has been in a low mood recently.

The cause of the incident was that Jia Baoyu was beaten.

Ever since Qingwen invited Jia Zheng last time and brought Jia Baoyu back home, she has been giving him a lecture on love.

Jia Baoyu was beaten so hard that he lay on the bed and needed someone to help him even when he went to the bathroom.

Lin Daiyu and her friends were polite, and at most they would arrange for the maids around them to visit once or twice to express their attitude.

But Shi Xiangyun actually went to visit Jia Baoyu in person. When she came back, Qin Keqing, who had never been angry with her, took the initiative to go to her house and scold her.

The most serious sentence was, "You are the master's concubine. If you go to see a man other than your husband, it will be a disgrace to the Ningguo family if outsiders know about it. You must be polite."

This is telling her directly that she is rude.

In this era of ethics and morality, this kind of accusation is already very serious for female members of the family.

Shi Xiangyun is naive, not really stupid.

She also realized that her identity was different now, and it was inappropriate to play like childhood sweethearts as before.

But I didn't know who to confide in, so I could only cry alone in my bed.

For several days, I felt depressed.

Until that night, after washing up and going to bed, I didn't have the energy to read the storybook, so I lay in bed in a daze.

From outside the door came the maid Cuilu's cry of "Master?!"

Before Shi Xiangyun could figure it out, she heard the sound of the door being pushed open.

After a short while, Chen Ran arrived at the bedroom.

"I heard you have no appetite recently?" He sat down next to the bed and naturally held Shi Xiangyun's hand. "Didn't you have dinner?"

"I just have no appetite." Shi Xiangyun was embarrassed to say that she was scolded. She felt upset and couldn't eat, so she could only make up an excuse.

"Man is iron, and food is steel. If you don't eat, you will be hungry."

Chen Ran's rhymes flew by, which made Shi Xiangyun, who felt a little uneasy and worried that he was here to scold her, smile naively.

"Go tell the kitchen to bring some midnight snacks."

After giving Cuilu a few instructions, Chen Ran continued to chat with Shi Xiangyun, talking about music, chess, calligraphy, painting, storytelling, and the most popular storytelling stories in the capital recently.

As an experienced veteran, Chen Ran knows how to cultivate relationships with girls of different personalities.

For someone like Shi Xiangyun who has lacked parental love since childhood, we should care for her with our heart.

Do little things to touch her heart, chat with her in a gentle manner about topics she likes, etc.

In short, just be a warm and coaxing man.

Sure enough, when Chen Ran personally held the bowl and fed Shi Xiangyun, the girl's beautiful eyes were already a little blurred.

She had never met anyone who was so nice to her!
Even if it is your childhood sweetheart, we just play together at most. How could he/she be so caring and considerate to you?

"Have a good rest." Chen Ran stood up and helped tuck in the blankets. "Eat on time, and play with Yingchun and the others when you're free. This will be your home from now on, so don't be polite."

Looking at Chen Ran's departing back, Shi Xiangyun's eyes softened noticeably.

As expected, childhood sweethearts can never compare to someone who falls from the sky~~~
Three days of such caring and attentiveness undoubtedly touched Shi Xiangyun's heart.

On the third night, when Chen Ran did not get up and leave, but went straight to the bed and got into the quilt, Shi Xiangyun just closed her eyes shyly.

The bed had been in disrepair for a long time and made a constant creaking sound.

The strange sound of water made Cuilu, who was sleeping in the outer room, toss and turn.

The next few nights were all the same rhythm, the sound of the waves remained the same.

'The strategy for Shi Xiangyun has been completed, and the rewards are now being distributed.'

'Note: A 20-point deviation value reward will be issued.'

"Only give the deviation value?" Chen Ran rubbed his chin and glanced at the sleeping girl. "Sichun gave me the ability to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, why can't others do it?"

If you really can't figure it out, just stop thinking about it.

"It's better to have it than not to have it."

In addition to obtaining rewards, Chen Ran was completely certain that conquering the Twelve Beauties was not just about getting the people.

You must achieve both your body and mind to complete the strategy.

In this case, people like Li Wan will be in trouble.

After all, Li Wan has been "heartbroken" since her husband's death.

If the purpose is simply to get the body, Chen Ran has plenty of ways.

Pleasant words
In the modern world, Chen Ran took time out to accompany Liu Ruyan to dinner and movies, doing what a boyfriend and girlfriend should do on a date.

I was bored, so I asked casually, "From a female perspective, how can I win the heart of a widow with a son?"

Liu Ruyan immediately showed a look of vigilance. "Who do you like?"

"How is that possible?" Chen Ran spread his hands innocently. "You know my circle of friends. There is no such person at all. I was just bored and just chatting casually."

"Haha~~~"

Liu Ruyan didn't believe it at all. Men's words are lies.

She simply made up a story in all seriousness, "It's easy. You just need to be good to her son unconditionally."

"So simple?"

"It's that simple."

In the world of Dream of the Red Chamber, Chen Ran took the initiative to find Li Wan.

"The county exam in Shuntian Prefecture is about to begin, let Jia Lan take the stage."

Li Wan was delighted at first, but then she looked embarrassed and said, "Lan'er is still young."

"Not young anymore." Chen Ran said bluntly, "Jia Lan is a very calm person. He should have stepped up to take charge earlier. Maybe in the future, the Jia family will have to rely on him to support it."

Li Wan still has doubts: "It's hard to pass the county exam"

"I have some connections in Shuntian Prefecture." Chen Ran said with a smile, "Let alone the county exam, the prefectural exam will be no problem."

It would be easy to get by with the support of the Jia family, but Li Wan is not qualified to use it.

Because the Jia family's attention was focused on Jia Baoyu, no one cared about Jia Lan.

Chen Ran's initiative to help made Li Wan grateful. "Thank you, Mr. Ran. You are such a good person."
