Chapter 9 Huaiqing: What's wrong with letting him touch it? [Seeking flowers and monthly tickets]

The disappearance of 150,000 taels of silver shocked the court and the capital.

Two days later.

The cracking of the tax fraud case once again shocked the entire capital of Kyoto.

The case was both incredibly complex and solved at an unprecedented speed.

Information about the case is being discussed everywhere, especially by ordinary people who are very interested in it and have all sorts of opinions.

Some say the night watchman solved the case, while others say the eldest princess secretly offered a plan.

In short, opinions vary widely!

Inside the Shadow Plum Pavilion, Fu Xiang's soft body sat on Su Nan's lap, her thin gauze half-undone and half-hanging, swaying gently.

"There's a lot of talk about the tax and silver case outside."

"I'm afraid many people would never have imagined that it would be Su Lang who solved this case."

"If word gets out, Su Lang's reputation will shake the capital once again."

Su Nan chuckled softly, "Fame and fortune are all fleeting."

It is true.

Only real strength is the true measure of success!

Fame and power are merely byproducts.

Even Wei Yuan, who was as powerful as a second-rank Dao Integration cultivator, had to exhaust his power for the sake of the woman he loved!

In Su Nan's view, it was ultimately because they lacked the strength.

If he can advance to the first rank or even the half-step Martial God realm.

Let's see if Emperor Yuanjing still dares to bark like a dog.

Even with a different emperor, he'll still sit on the dragon throne!

By helping the Xu family escape this calamity, I can take this opportunity to obtain the Two Green Snakes from Lingyue, further enhancing my combat power.

And you might even win the heart of a beautiful woman along the way.

Although the people of southern Jiangsu stayed at the Jiaofangsi (a government-run entertainment institution) day and night, they were already quite familiar with the pleasures of the bedroom.

But Xu Lingyue, a girl from a respectable family, and these seasoned courtesans were ultimately different.

After the tax silver case, I'm afraid I'll attract the attention of Wei Yuan and others.

However, this was exactly what Su Nan wanted.

With the two green snakes in his sleeves, his strength has increased even further; he can now kill a third-rank martial artist!

Even a third-rank martial artist, who was known for his indestructible body, could not withstand his fierce sword intent!

"Su Lang is really dashing."

"I can't live without you anymore."

Fu Xiang bit her red lips slightly, her eyes gradually becoming hazy.

"Let's drink and sing, what is life like?"

Su Nan laughed, picked up Fu Xiang, and changed her position.

As the moon sets behind the western mountains, southern Jiangsu drifts away.

He received an invitation from the Xu family to visit them.

So I won't stay overnight at Yingmei Pavilion.

Fu Xiang dragged her tired and slightly trembling body to the table and slowly wrote a secret letter.

"This Su Lang... has made me unable to even hold a pen properly."

Fu Xiang whispered coquettishly.

Fu Xiang told the King of Ten Thousand Demons everything that had happened in the past few days.

In this secret letter, Su Nan occupies a significant portion of the text.

I wonder what the ruler of the Demon Kingdom would feel if he saw this secret letter filled with tender emotions.

……

The eldest princess's mansion.

A tall woman stood in the courtyard, her hair styled in a simple bun, adorned with a gleaming gold hairpin, clearly dressed as an unmarried woman.

The woman wore a gorgeous moon-white long dress, the hem of which swayed on the ground. Her appearance was pure and refined, like a water lily that remained untainted by the mud.

Those clear eyes were like an ice mirror, their transparency revealing a cold and noble air.

Her already shapely figure was alluring and curvaceous.

This woman was Princess Huaiqing, the eldest princess of the Great Feng Dynasty.

"Your Highness, we've found out."

Before going to the capital, Xu Lingyue went to the Yingmei Pavilion of the Jiaofangsi (Imperial Music Bureau) and met with Su Nan.

"The princess's golden token in her hand must have been given to her by Su Nan."

Huaiqing nodded lightly, his voice clear and cold.

"It must be him."

"Although there are many guest advisors in the mansion, he is the only one who has obtained the gold token."

"He must be the mastermind behind cracking the tax evasion case. Xu Lingyue wouldn't be that clever."

The subordinates standing in front of Huaiqing looked somewhat resentful.

The subordinates knew perfectly well who the princess was referring to when she spoke of "him".

Who else but southern Jiangsu!

What angered this subordinate was Su Nan's past actions.

The princess kindly tried to recruit this person, but he refused time and time again.

The last time, even when the eldest princess went to see this person in person, she was still refused!

Fortunately, the eldest princess was kind-hearted and did not hold a grudge against this person, and even gave the gold token to Su Nan.

The Princess's door is always open to Su Nan, as long as he is willing.

I've never seen the princess favor anyone so much!

This person has such good fortune, yet doesn't know how to cherish it!

"The eldest princess is indeed insightful, recognizing Su Nan's abilities early on."

"It's a pity that this boy doesn't know what's good for him and has repeatedly refused His Highness's offer to recruit him."

Huaiqing didn't mind Su Nan's repeated rejections in the past, and said calmly, "Su Nan's arrogance has its own merits."

"The title of 'banished immortal' is not just an empty name."

Huaiqing believed that Su Nan had rejected her before because she did not want to get involved in the court's intrigues and preferred to live a quiet and carefree life.

This person was exceptionally talented and was famous in Kyoto for over a decade, earning the reputation of being a banished immortal.

All I can do in my life is drink and sing.

He not only rejected his own offer of recruitment, but also the offers from the Imperial College and Yunlu Academy.

He's the only one who can attract both companies to compete for his talent.

Given this kind of personality, why did you get involved in the tax and silver case?

Could it be because of Xu Lingyue?

Thinking of this, Huaiqing felt a little resentful.

Because of his two good deeds, everyone in the capital knew that Su Nan was good at both.

What a fine wine, what a beautiful woman.

If we're talking about looks, am I really inferior to Xu Lingyue?

The tax case is enough to prove that this person not only has unparalleled talent in poetry, but also possesses exceptional intelligence.

Without ever stepping into Mei Xiaoge, he solved the tax silver case simply by reviewing the case files.

If someone with such abilities could become a trusted retainer, they would be a great help to you!

It's a pity... Su Nan is too carefree and is not moved by fame and fortune at all.

Huaiqing slowly lowered her head and glanced at the hem of her skirt.

Three years ago, on a sweltering summer day, she met this person during her last attempt to recruit people from southern Jiangsu.

After the discussion, Su Nan was already quite drunk. Before leaving, he uttered a flirtatious remark that could be described as "outrageous".

"The eldest princess is beautiful, a true beauty."

"Long legs are even more beautiful, a rare beauty in the world."

"If I could touch it, my life would be worthwhile."

After saying this, he looked up at the sky and laughed, then left with the golden token.

Huaiqing glanced at the legs hidden in the hem of her skirt, then smiled, her allure naturally revealed.

If Su Nan could agree to become my guest advisor.

What's wrong with letting him touch it?

The subordinates standing in front of Huaiqing were stunned when they saw the princess smile.

It's like a stunning snow lotus suddenly blooming atop a towering iceberg.

This scene is absolutely breathtaking.
