The fake prince was exposed at the beginning, and I took office as emperor on the spot

Chapter 161 Xuexiang's Ambition

Xu Fu pursed his lips, finally recalling the last expression he saw on Gu Fangchen's face.

It didn't seem to be directed at her directly, but rather at the young maid; it was more like a restrained, uncontrollable emotion, a fantasy emanating from behind the maid's facade...

Based on the previous incident, he had the maid dress up as himself to console himself.

In other words, this guy is using his concubine as a substitute again.

He was fantasizing about the "Imperial Advisor" in his mind.

Upon realizing this, Xu Fu's expression softened.

That's true... If this little thief knew it was me, would he dare to be so bold?
Judging from Xu Fu's actions during this period, this person seems to be bold and risky, but in reality, every step is calculated in advance, and there is always a way out.

This shows that he was not a reckless person at all; on the contrary, he was far-sighted.

But this time, no matter how bold he is, he probably wouldn't act so recklessly, given such a blasphemous act...

Furthermore, with Xu Fu's keen eyesight, he naturally knew that Gu Fangchen's sudden incident tonight was indeed, as he said, due to a mishap during her training.

Moreover, no one knows what he did, he had a sinister aura from the netherworld, and he was seriously injured.

It was clearly not done intentionally.

That's it.

As for Cao Tianzhou's matter... I'll tell him when I have time during the day.

The Grand Preceptor, his face grim, couldn't help but glance at his palm again and let out a cold snort.

This pervert!
I absolutely... I must never contact this person at night again!

……

Gu Fangchen caught the unconscious Xuexiang, stared at the ceiling, feeling the blood and qi flowing smoothly through her body again, her eyes exceptionally clear.

Having achieved the fifth rank, one can be considered qualified to leave their mark in this chaotic world that is about to begin.

No matter where you are, a fifth-grade grandmaster is a figure of considerable stature, and no one dares to underestimate him.

Although in his current situation, he's barely able to save his own life...

But he achieved this in less than a month!

Even from the perspective of speedrunners, this is already a very good result.

After all, most players start from scratch, but although Gu Fangchen has physical aptitude issues, her network of connections is far superior.

The identity of the Prince of Zhenbei is indeed a combination of crisis and opportunity.

Gu Fangchen picked Xuexiang up and carried her into the side room. Sure enough, the bathwater had already been prepared in advance...

He reached out to test the water temperature, and Xuexiang, who had been stripped naked and placed in the wooden tub, woke up groggily.

Even with Xu Fu's abilities, his possession was not without its limits. Theoretically, it wouldn't harm the soul of the possessed person; at most, it would only cause them to be momentarily dazed, not cause them to faint.

Xuexiang fainted because she was startled by Gu Fangchen's sudden fall.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she found herself seemingly naked, with the prince's arms encircling her, and her face immediately turned red.

But then he realized that Gu Fangchen was fiddling with the bathwater, while he was the one in the bathwater, and he immediately panicked.

"Your Highness... this, how can you do this? It should be your servant serving you..."

Xuexiang tiptoed, trying to climb out.

Gu Fangchen raised an eyebrow and said:
"You've already served them all, what else is there to serve them for?"

Xuexiang was taken aback.

"I've finished serving her? How come she has no recollection of it at all?"

She tried hard to recall, only remembering that she came in, looked around but couldn't find His Highness, and then, as soon as she looked up, she was slammed onto the bed...

The maid turned her head and saw that the young prince was indeed not wearing any clothes and was covered in sweat.

It certainly looks like what the princess said.

But... but she doesn't seem to feel any discomfort? Xuexiang suddenly blinked, raised her hand, and found that something on her hand seemed to be disintegrating...

Strange, what is this?
Did she accidentally touch the osmanthus lotus root starch soup?
The little beauty raised her hand in confusion, stuck out her tongue and licked it, then her little face scrunched up. She looked up at her young master, her face contorted in a pained expression, and said:

"Your Highness, this food is awful! What did the kitchen prepare for you?"

Gu Fangchen: "..."

He twitched his lips, glanced down, took a deep breath, and whispered a few words in Xuexiang's ear.

Xuexiang's mouth quickly formed an "O" shape, and her face flushed red.

So that's what that thing looks like.

She had seen the brochure before, and there were some vague descriptions, but she really didn't know what the actual operation was like.

But judging from this, it seems she has completed half of her mission?
Xuexiang, intending to press her advantage, looked at Gu Fangchen with bright eyes and whispered:

"Your Highness, may I sleep at your place after I've finished washing up?"

How come this little maid is even more lustful than him?
Gu Fangchen found it somewhat amusing. After thinking for a moment, she reached out and patted Xuexiang's head, saying:
"Sleeping is fine, but nothing else. I'll talk about that once my cultivation level is stable."

He had just recovered from a serious injury and had just been promoted. His internal circulation was not yet stable, and the fall he had just taken caused problems.

If we don't exercise restraint now, I'm afraid it will leave behind future troubles.

Although Xuexiang was a little disappointed, she felt relieved when she thought that she had completed the first great step.

Keep up the good work in the future!

If I become a maidservant, I might be promoted to concubine in the future... then my family's life will be more secure.

Gu Fangchen was unaware that her little maidservant actually harbored great ambitions.

Not content with being a concubine, she also wanted to be a mistress.

Of course, he currently has nothing by his side as the heir apparent, so he wouldn't mind if Xuexiang were to take over.

The two of them took a shower and went to bed.

Although Xuexiang still had ideas for what else to do, she was exhausted from being frightened unconscious and possessed by the Grand Preceptor. She quickly drifted off to sleep.

She was petite and curled up in the corner of the bed.

Gu Fangchen had lost all interest in doing anything.

Although she was interrupted by a minor incident, the fact that the Imperial Advisor has arrived means that she has already deduced the whereabouts of the "Six Star Lords"!
This will be the most important step in cracking down on the evil cult.

No carelessness is allowed.

But the Imperial Advisor has just been scared away by him again... so he can only wait for her to calm down and contact him again.

……

No sleep for one night.

He's on guard against the Grandmother who might return at any moment, and he's preparing for a long-term guerrilla war. He won't be getting any sleep lately.

Gu Fangchen got up very early, wanting to find Old Man Ding to learn martial arts, but Old Man Ding was nowhere to be found.

Just like he said, it depends on his mood.

Meanwhile, Qing Jian was also nowhere to be found, but her whereabouts were quite clear: she had gone to the White Horse Temple outside the city... presumably summoned by Prajna Lotus Moon.

It seems that after so many days, Prajna Lotus Moon has also realized that she has no way of finding the whereabouts of that sacred object.

Soon I'll have to beg myself again.

Gu Fangchen wasn't in a hurry. She leisurely changed into her everyday clothes, a white robe with a qilin pattern, waved a fan, and, with Xuexiang by her side, prepared to go to the residence of the Minister of War to find her close friend Zhao Wenyuan.

Meanwhile, the entire noble circle of Huangtian City was in an uproar because of the shocking result of the real and fake heirs. Many young masters who had grudges against Gu Fangchen in the past gathered at the Huangtian City Music Bureau to argue about it.
