After hearing her gossip, all the civil and military officials went crazy.

Chapter 223 Be Your Male Concubine

"Back? What did they go to do? They went to bed so late last night, why did they get up so early?"

"Lord Duan and the others haven't slept yet. They went to check on something that happened at the greenhouse. Your Highness, shall we head back this afternoon?"

"Oh, let's go back! There's still so much to do! But before we go back, let's check out the salt factory. Why is the salt still a bit bitter lately?"

"Yes, Princess."

After visiting the saltworks, Fang Lingchu went back.

Upon arriving at the princess's residence, we were greeted by guests who were not dressed in plastic.

A handsome man with exquisite features stood quietly against Fang Lingchu's wall, gazing at the clear breeze and bright moon. Their eyes met, a glance that seemed to last an eternity.

"Long time no see, Chu Chu."

It was Duan Qianze who broke the silence between the two.

"How did you come?"

Fang Lingchu never expected that the assassin Tao Hua and the others were talking about was actually him.

I wanted to come see you.

Duan Qianze looked at her with those deeply affectionate eyes.

Fang Lingchu felt goosebumps all over her body.

"Get down right now. Don't look at me like that with those eyes that look like you're looking at a dog with such affection. It's giving me the creeps."

"You're still the same old spoilsport."

After saying that, Duan Qianze jumped down from the wall.

"I heard you were surrounded and attacked a few days ago. Is your family alright?"

Actually, Fang Lingchu felt a little guilty saying this, since she was the one who reported it.

"That's good. I left the Hundred Fiends Pavilion after that day, and what happens to them is none of my business."

"Ah! Why? Isn't that pavilion master your father?"

Duan Qianze gave a cold laugh, his eyes indifferent.

What kind of father is he?

【Wait, Guagua, is this right? In the original storyline, didn't he love his father quite a bit? This is such a character mishap!】

[Host, ever since you took office, every single one of your characters has been on the path to ruining their public persona.]

That makes so much sense!

"What did your father do? Did he find you a stepmother?"

Fang Lingchu's gossip instincts were burning!

"No, it's just that I suddenly realized my presence doesn't seem to be that popular, and it's also dragging someone into a quagmire."

"What nonsense! Why are you unpopular? We all like you!"

Others: We didn't like it.

"Thank you for comforting me, Your Highness, but I don't mind at all. As long as you're happy."

Duan Qianze looked at her with a smile, as if no one in the world was more important than her.

The young man's straightforward and passionate love is like the bamboo shoots of spring, one crop after another.

Shut up.

"Of course I like you, after all, we're friends! Right?"

Duan Qianze understood what she meant, but he just didn't want to do it that way.

"You treat me as a friend, but I want to be your lover, what should I do?"

Fang Lingchu: ? ? ? ? What?

Wow, how exciting! A gigolo delivered right to your doorstep! Host, take him in!

Others: Has this former young master of the Hundred Fiends Pavilion gone mad?

Fang Lingchu almost lost her balance.

"That Duan Qianze! As a respectable sect leader, he shouldn't do things that make him look disrespectful."

"No way! I'd be happy to be the princess's lover! Besides, I'm homeless now, can't Your Highness take me in?"

[Is he here to beg for shelter? I have a feeling he's here to die!] "Didn't he bring anything with him after leaving the Hundred Fiends Pavilion?"

"No, I don't want his things! Besides, I've already betrayed him, and now many people are after me. Please, Your Highness, have mercy on me."

With his fair skin, handsome face, and beautiful lips, even though he was a little disheveled, he looked even more endearing.

Fang Lingchu swallowed hard, then thought to herself: [Fang Lingchu, you're a leading lady, a woman who wants to build her career. How can you bow down to a man?]

"Fine, you can stay if you want, but don't cause any trouble. Got it?"

"Understood, Your Highness."

Duan Qianze used his pleasant voice to say things that made people's minds wander.

Peach Blossom took Young Master Duan to stay at Liyue Courtyard.

"Yes, Princess."

Simultaneously
The palace also received news that Fang Lingchu had allowed a man to stay in her princess residence.

"Are you sure it was Fairy Spirit who asked him to stay?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, that Duan Qianze even said he would become Princess's male favorite."

"What did the fairy spirit say?"

"Tell him not to think about those things; he doesn't have those thoughts about the princess right now."

This is the result that Dark13 himself summarized from Fang Lingchu's words.

"Comer"

"See Your Majesty"

"Have the Empress select several handsome, well-built, and charming young men from noble families to send to the Princess Protector of the Nation."

He couldn't refuse Fang Lingchu's request, but he could offer to send someone to him.

He's just a gigolo!

Even if she took a liking to her own son, it wouldn't be a problem.

If all else fails, send the Imperial Advisor over.

We must never let Xianling become obsessed with men and forget her original intentions.

When the Empress in the inner palace received the Emperor's words, she and several others were somewhat taken aback.

"Are you sure His Majesty said he's looking for male lovers for Princess Xianling?"

"Your Majesty, it's like this..."

"What else did His Majesty say?"

The eunuch shook his head, indicating that this was all.

The Empress dismissed the servants and then sent her own people to inquire further.

Fang Lingchu, who was in the princess's residence, had no idea what surprise the emperor had prepared for her.

He was still drinking and chatting happily with Duan Qianze, the two of them talking about everything under the sun, having a great time.

"When I get old, I definitely want to go out and see the world. I've never been to any other place in my life."

"I'll take you there then, to see the shifting sands beyond the Great Wall, the customs and culture of southern Xinjiang, and the natural scenery of northern Xinjiang."

"Sure! We can travel together then, but do you think you'll even live that long? Don't forget, you're still being hunted down."

Duan Qianze looked at Fang Lingchu, who seemed intoxicated even by the smell of alcohol, and smiled indulgently, saying, "That's why I came to seek the princess's protection! I'm already the princess's person, so shouldn't the princess protect me?"

The two were less than a centimeter apart, and Duan Qianze's breath was completely sprayed onto Fang Lingchu's face.

As a bystander: Finally, we get to see a love story! That's great!
Hey host, go for it! Touch him with your hands! Don't be a coward!

Shut up, Guagua, you're giving me a headache.

[Host, look at his hands, aren't you tempted?]

[Shut up right now]

Although Fang Lingchu felt dizzy and lightheaded, she was still clear about what she was doing.

"Stay away from me. What do you mean you're mine? I'm not even an adult for another month. Don't talk nonsense. I'm going back to sleep."

Fang Lingchu was genuinely taken aback by Duan Qianze's blunt gaze.

I quickly ran back to my room; it was terrifying.
