I am a prince in Zhutian Films

Chapter 47 A promise worth a thousand pieces of gold

The front cabin of the pleasure boat.

Watching Li Chengzong returning from the rear cabin, Fan Xian's expression was both panic and joy, his eyes shifting constantly, as if his heart was also in turmoil.

"Are you really a time traveler as well?"

This word is used in an interesting way.

Li Chengzong smiled in his heart, but still showed some anger on the surface: "Why, you don't believe it, do you want a secret signal?"

Unexpectedly, Fan Xian actually nodded and said a secret code in a serious manner.

"The king of heaven overshadows the tigers of earth."

Li Chengzong sat down and rolled his eyes: "Shouldn't the signal for the meeting be, odd changes, even does not change, the symbol looks at the quadrant?"

"Ok?"

Fan Xian was stunned, poured a glass of wine for Li Chengzong, and asked doubtfully, "Is there such a saying?"

“That’s what’s written in novels.”

"Then you must be younger than me. We were both powerful men back then. You should call me brother."

Li Chengzong laughed: "I am your uncle!"

Fan Xian smiled.

As she laughed, her eyes turned red.

His expression was very complicated, like a lost person who found his relatives in his hometown, or like a homeless person who had been wandering for a long time found a home.

At the end, tears welled up in my eyes and almost flowed out.

He has been in this world for nearly twenty years. He has relatives, friends, and a confidant named Teng Zijing. But deep in his heart, he has always been a lonely person.

Before he met Li Chengzong, he actually felt a sense of sadness in his heart, thinking that "there are no ancients before me and no successors after me."

I copied the Dream of the Red Chamber when I had nothing to do, saying it was for entertainment, but wasn't there also a hope of finding a companion?
At this moment, thousands of words came to his mind, but Fan Xian didn't know how to express them.

"Fuck, you're not going to cry, are you? Don't think that if you cry, the fact that you knocked my wife unconscious as soon as you came here will be forgotten."

Upon hearing this, Fan Xian's thoughts faded a lot. He smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "I'm sorry, how about I make you faint once after I get married?"

Li Chengzong looked at him strangely, which made Fan Xian look confused.

"what happened?"

Li Chengzong said unhappily: "Wan'er is my cousin!"

"I won't marry her."

"Are you sure?" Li Chengzong couldn't help laughing.

"determine."

Fan Xian nodded decisively and said with a smile, "I have a girl I like. On the day I came to Beijing, I was in the side hall of the Qing Temple. I was in front of the table and she was under the table. The moment I lifted the tablecloth and saw her, I knew I was in love. I have decided to be with her for the rest of my life. By the way, she was holding a chicken drumstick in her hand at the time. Today I also saw her eating a chicken drumstick in Prince Jing's mansion. You have been in Kyoto since you were a child. Do you know who she is?"

"Who is she?" Li Chengzong asked with a smile.

He naturally knew who the chicken leg girl Fan Xian was talking about, but it would be pointless if he told Fan Xian.

"I'm asking you, you're asking me?"

"I don't know who the girl with the chicken leg you mentioned is. How can I know who she is? But I know one thing, that girl with the chicken leg must be very beautiful."

"I'm not just pretty, I'm really pretty, just like a fairy from heaven."

Fan Xian laughed foolishly, then reacted and asked in confusion: "How do you know she is beautiful?"

"If she wasn't pretty, would you have fallen in love with her at first sight?"

Li Chengzong teased with a smile on his face: "But you fell in love at first sight, it's obvious that you were attracted by her beauty."

Frankly speaking, Li Chengzong felt that Fan Xian was a little ignorant. There was no way he could associate Lin Wan'er with a fairy.

In his opinion, Lin Wan'er was not even as pretty as the actresses in TV dramas, let alone a fairy.

Of course, Li Chengzong also knew why he felt this way.

After all, he and Lin Wan'er grew up together and had seen each other so many times that there was no feeling between them. It was just like others thought your sister was very beautiful, but you thought your sister was average looking.

Fan Xian picked up the wine glass and took a sip, then said with a silly smile, "Whether it's love at first sight or just lust after her beauty, I will only marry my chicken leg girl."

"So that's why you came to Kyoto to visit brothels and tarnish your reputation, hoping that Lin Ruofu and Li Yunrui would cancel their engagement?"

“It’s one aspect.”

Fan Xian nodded and said frankly: "Today, in addition to wanting to tarnish my own reputation, I also want to confirm whether you are a time traveler, and I also came here to find a witness."

Li Chengzong pretended to be confused and said, "I understand the first half of the sentence, but what does it mean to find a witness?"

Fan Xian directly told the story of how he and Teng Zijing met and how Guo Baokun persecuted Teng Zijing's family.

Finally, Fan Xian said, "So I plan to help Teng Zijing get revenge tonight. Guo Baokun is the son of the Minister of Rites. Killing him will definitely cause a lot of trouble. I need someone to provide an alibi."

Fan Xian paused for a moment, then took the initiative to pour a glass of wine for Li Chengzong, and said with a smile: "Can you please do me a favor? How about being a witness for me?"

"Have you never heard of a fellow villager shooting another fellow villager in the back? You asked me to be a witness. Aren't you afraid that I will cheat you?"

Fan Xian shook his head: "I believe you won't cheat me."

I have to say, it feels really good to be trusted by others.

Li Chengzong was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Since you trust me so much and we have a close relationship, I can promise to help you three times within my ability. This testimony counts as one."

"Thanks!"

It was obvious that Fan Xian only thought that Li Chengzong agreed to help him three times because they were both time travelers. He had no idea about the relationship between Ye Qingmei and Qin Yu, and he didn't know that he himself was not a time traveler at all.

Fan Xian picked up his wine glass and offered a toast. He asked a little embarrassedly, "Where is Miss Si Lili?"

Li Chengzong drank the wine and said with a smile, "I'll take care of it. I'll give you another piece of information for free. Guo Baokun is a bit stupid, but he has nothing to do with Teng Zijing's family. The things you mentioned were probably done by his servants in his name, or he was deceived by his servants. But I can be sure that he didn't kill Teng Zijing's family."

Upon hearing this, Fan Xian nodded and said, "Actually, I also think it's impossible that it was Guo Baokun. The record in the document doesn't quite fit Guo Baokun's personality."

"The document Wang Qinian gave you?"

"You also know Wang Qinian?" Fan Xian was a little surprised.

He had heard about Li Chengzong's situation. He was a senior stay-at-home who almost never left his house. He never expected that Li Chengzong would know Wang Qinian, a small figure in the Supervisory Commission.

"He sells red houses, maps, rouge and powder. His business is not small. I naturally noticed him, but he didn't know me."

Li Chengzong picked up a peanut and threw it into his mouth, then drank a sip of wine happily and said with a smile: "Wang Qinian is a money-loving person, but he is also a gentleman who earns money in a proper way. He is a good person. If it was him who gave the file, then there should be something wrong with it. Teng Zijing's family is probably fine. Of course, this is just my guess. You have to go to Guo Baokun and Wang Qinian for details."

"Thanks."

Fan Xian stood up and said with a smile, "It's almost time now. I'll go first and come back to have a drink with you later. I guess your Miss Si Lili won't wake up tonight. I'm sorry." Seeing Fan Xian fly away quietly, Li Chengzong followed closely behind.

Of course, he was not going to follow, but to look for Li Hongcheng who was hiding in the dark.

"Hongcheng."

The sudden shout startled Li Hongcheng. Seeing that it was Li Chengzong, he calmed down and called him "Third Brother". Then he asked, "What is Fan Xian doing sneaking around like this?"

"Beat Guo Baokun."

"Why did he hit Guo Baokun?"

"You'll know tomorrow. Go to bed early. You're standing here quietly. You might scare people to death if you're not careful."

Li Hongcheng: "..."

He was just startled, okay?

After Li Chengzong gave his instructions, he went straight onto the boat.

When I arrived at the rear cabin, I saw Si Lili still lying on the bed, as if she had really been knocked unconscious.

"Stop pretending, I know you're awake."

Si Lili didn't move.

"Stop pretending, and I'll sleep with you tonight."

Si Lili opened her eyes, made room for him, patted the bed, and said provocatively, "Come and sleep if you can."

"Woman, I advise you not to tease me."

Si Lili didn't say anything and just pulled him onto the bed.

Just when Li Chengzong was about to make a move, Si Lili turned over and held him down again, saying with a smile: "I am not feeling well today."

Li Chengzong: “…”

You said this as if I had done this to you before.

The key point is that you are not feeling well and you are asking me to do some knitting.

"No matter what Fan Xian says to you, I can't listen."

Feeling the man stiffen under her, Si Lili couldn't help but smile, then changed her expression and glared at Li Chengzong like a tigress: "And he drugged me, don't you say you didn't know?"

"know."

"Knowing that you won't stop me, what can I not listen to?"

"Um...I don't want to lie to you."

"can not say?"

“I can say part of it.”

"Then tell me what you can say."

As Si Lili spoke, she laid down in Li Chengzong's arms, her soft and boneless body pressed against Li Chengzong, greedily feeling Li Chengzong's breath.

Kyoto seemed very peaceful at the moment, but she had an inexplicable intuition that she didn't have much time left in Kyoto, so she felt a little regretful that she was not feeling well today.

Feeling the softness in his arms, Li Chengzong's body became increasingly stiff, but as he talked about Teng Zijing, his stiff body gradually relaxed.

After listening to the story between Teng Zijing and Fan Xian, Si Lili smiled and said, "This illegitimate son of the Fan family is really a bit different. He is very loyal to Teng Zijing. But is he really the illegitimate son of Si Nanbo raised in Danzhou? He didn't look like he was from a small place before."

Kyoto is the capital of Qing Kingdom. Young masters from small places would usually be a little timid when they come to Kyoto. But she had never seen this in Fan Xian before. Even when Fan Xian faced Prince Li Chengzong, he did not show any awe, just like treating an ordinary person.

"He doesn't look like someone from a small place. Maybe it's because he hasn't adapted yet."

Think about the plot in the TV series. At first, Fan Xian refused to kneel when he saw Emperor Qing, but later he knelt obediently.

When you come to this world and spend a long time in it, you will inevitably slowly integrate into this world, and many changes will occur as a result, which are subtle and imperceptible even to yourself.

Just like Li Chengzong himself, he had also felt displeased with Fan Xian's disrespect and fearlessness.

After all, he was gradually transforming into a real feudal prince.

Li Chengzong sighed silently and said with a smile: "As for whether he is Si Nanbo's illegitimate son, I can tell you clearly that he is not. His identity is not simple. You will know it later."

"When will it be in the future?"

"When you marry me, I will tell you some of the secrets I know."

Si Lili stopped talking and just lay quietly in the arms of the man beside her.

Not long after, Li Chengzong heard Si Lili's steady breathing.

the other side.

Fan Xian stopped Teng Zijing who was about to kill him on Niulan Street.

Despite the news about Li Chengzong, Fan Xian still beat Guo Baokun severely.

Everything unfolded according to the normal development of the plot. After beating Guo Baokun, Fan Xian and Teng Zijing prepared to find Wang Qinian to ask clearly, but found that Wang Qinian had followed them without them knowing when.

Then, Fan Xian and Teng Zijing followed Wang Qinian out of the city.

By the time Fan Xian returned to the pleasure boat, it was already dawn.

Seeing Li Chengzong sitting at the wine table, Fan Xian thought he had been waiting for him and felt very embarrassed.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. I was out of town for a while."

"It's okay. I just came to tell you that if the Kyoto government summons you today, you can say that we hit it off right away and got drunk on the pleasure boat."

Fan Xian nodded: "Why don't you ask what happened tonight?"

"I don't like to meddle in other people's business."

"So you still promised to help me?"

"Didn't I tell you before that we have a connection? I promised to help you three times. I have to keep my word."

Fan Xian stared at Li Chengzong in a daze without saying anything.

"What do you mean?"

"Looking at you, I thought of an idiom: a promise is worth a thousand gold."

"Don't ever think that I will be like Ji Bu, a man of justice and love to fight for the weak. Although I like Ji Bu very much, I will never be Ji Bu."

Li Chengzong yawned for a long time, stood up and said, "Please do as you please, I really need to go to sleep for a while."
