Medicine and poison are inseparable, and my skills in poison have improved considerably.

On this day, Liu Shuyan took Li Chang'an out of the palace to visit relatives.

That winter, a severe cold descended.

Many people are saying that it's going to snow in Kyoto.

Snow in Nanqing is a rare occurrence.

It's more accurate to say they're reuniting as relatives than visiting them.

Liu Shuyan was a distant relative of the Duke of Liu's family, but her status changed completely after she gave birth to a prince.

Therefore, the renowned Duke Liu also addressed her as "sister" repeatedly, showing great enthusiasm.

Name: Liu Yaoquan (Duke Liu)

Age: 55

Realm: Upper Seventh Rank

Talent: Commander (Rank 7)

Abilities: Strategy (Sixth Rank), Command (Eighth Rank)

Emotion: 30

This Duke Liu's title was hereditary, but he did indeed fight against Emperor Qing.

His command abilities are evident from his formidable skills.

However, Duke Liu and his sons were overly polite, which was rather boring.

Li Chang'an's attention was focused on the eldest daughter of the Duke's mansion.

Name: Liu Ruyu

Age: 18

Realm: None

Talent: Social Skills (Rank 5)

Abilities: Social Skills (Rank 6), Gossip (Rank 5), Stewardship (Rank 3)

Emotion: 5

Duke Liu did not participate much in politics, but he had excellent judgment.

He valued Fan Jian's noble family background and his close relationship with Emperor Qing.

He actually married his own daughter to Fan Jian as a concubine.

Fan Jian, in his early twenties, was already a fifth-rank official in the Ministry of Revenue.

At this time, Fan Jian's first wife had already passed away.

"My aunt is a very skilled doctor. Could you please prescribe a medicine for my Ruoruo?"

"That girl is only one year old, but she has always been weak and sickly."

"My mother-in-law also wants to bring her to Danzhou so that it will be easier to take care of her."

Liu Ruyu's brows furrowed as she spoke.

Actually, Fan's mother was worried that Liu Ruyu, who came from a wealthy family, wouldn't know how to take care of children.

She was also the emperor's wet nurse, and thus held a very high position in the family.

From Liu Ruyu's perspective, she certainly wanted to keep Fan Ruoruo.

If she takes good care of herself, she will be able to integrate into her new family more easily.

Perhaps Fan Jian could even make her his official wife.

Liu Shuyan and Liu Ruyu were talking when Li Chang'an suddenly interrupted.

"Mom, this lady is so beautiful!"

This remark brought a knowing smile to everyone present.

The story of Li Chang'an's first birthday celebration had already spread throughout the capital.

Everyone knows that Emperor Qing's third brother, Li Chang'an, has arrested the women.

When he grows up, he'll probably be a womanizer!

Li Chang'an guessed that the spread of this reputation must have been due to someone's encouragement.

Being born into royalty, nothing is easy.

Some people hoped he would settle down and be a philandering prince, spending his days surrounded by women.

In her youth, Liu Ruyu was undoubtedly a beauty.

Liu Ruyu covered her mouth and chuckled, "Brother Chang'an, you really know how to talk."

Liu Shuyan also said, "Chang'an is right, Ruyu is indeed a pitiful sight."

At this moment, Li Chang'an suddenly said, "I want to go see my niece Ruoruo!"

Although children are said to speak without thinking, Liu Ruyu's lips still twitched.

Li Chang'an was only five years old, yet he had already started to have his eye on a one-year-old girl.

No wonder he's a master at choosing rouge for a baby's first birthday celebration.

Five-year-old Li Chang'an is gradually solidifying his public image.

Fan Ruoruo, the most talented woman in Kyoto, is Li Chang'an's favorite female character when watching dramas.

Fan Ruoruo is still in Kyoto.

However, she was about to go to Danzhou.

After arriving in Danzhou, Fan Ruoruo was completely charmed by Fan Xian's various stories.

Later, even after Fan Ruoruo became the most talented woman in the capital, she was still a die-hard fan of Fan Xian.

Now that Li Chang'an has arrived, Fan Ruoruo no longer needs to go to Danzhou.

If she's going to be a die-hard fan from now on, she can only be one of me, Li Chang'an!

If you want to steal talent, you have to start from the very beginning.

The simplest way is to have Liu Shuyan prepare some prescriptions to help Fan Ruoruo adjust her diet.

Just delay a little while, and let the Fan family know that Liu Ruyu treats Fan Ruoruo like her own daughter.

Upon hearing that Li Chang'an wanted to visit the Fan residence, Liu Ruyu naturally welcomed him.

Wherever the emperor's brother goes, that place gains prestige.

When Li Chang'an and his mother were traveling by carriage to the Fan residence, a couple of carriages also drove out of the palace.

Seated inside the carriage were Li Zhi, who was now Prince Jing, and Fan Jian, a senior official in the Ministry of Revenue.

At this moment, Li Zhi had a worried look on his face.

"Fan Jian! Why do you think His Majesty entrusted the matter of poetry to me?"

Fan Jian laughed and said, "Of course I'll leave it to you!"

"You frequent brothels and compose poems and essays; you are quite talented!"

Li Zhi had no way to express his suffering, Emperor Qing was suspicious, and he was also tarnishing his own reputation.

Of course, he also liked the brothels because they had their charms.

Nanqing recently suffered another minor defeat against Beiqi, and negotiations between the two sides have just ended.

As is customary, a banquet was held for the Northern Qi delegation after the negotiations concluded.

The people of Northern Qi were known for their refined tastes and often enjoyed composing poems and essays during banquets.

At this time of year, the ministers of Nanqing are always scratching their heads in frustration.

The literary scene of Northern Qi was far superior to that of Southern Qing.

Li Zhi said angrily, "Don't gloat!"

"Of the famous songs on the Liujing River, eight out of ten are from the Northern Qi Dynasty!"

Seeing Fan Jian suppressing a wicked smile, Prince Jing called out to the outside.

"Invite all the talented scholars in the capital to the Fan residence!"

"I will stay at the Fan residence tonight. I will not leave until I have written three good poems!"

Chapter 6 Fan Jian! Ruoruo doesn't need to go to Danzhou anymore!

Poetry, lyrics, and songs require a foundation of cultural accumulation.

Such a foundation requires a long period of social stability and prosperity.

Nanqing rose to prominence in southern Xinjiang in just over a decade.
