The Deepest Affection in Qin's Time

It's not surprising that Han Fei thought that way.

If we want to find a poet in history who is more romantic than Li Bai, it seems that we can only bring up Qu Yuan.

There's nothing we can do; they're the ancestors, after all.

"Clouds yearn for her clothes, flowers for her face..." Zi Nu raised her head, gazing at the nebulae drifting across the night sky outside the window, the bright moon hanging high in the sky, the falling flowers fluttering down, whispering softly, gradually becoming infatuated.

Seeing Zi Nu's appearance, Cao Yuan smiled smugly.

Life is really lonely as snow.

That's too easy.

"Are you satisfied, Miss Zi Nu?"

Cao Yuan spoke at the opportune moment, giving Zi Nu time to ponder and reflect.

"...Satisfied, I am very satisfied."

Zi Nu sighed softly, "A beauty under the moon, what woman could resist such poetry?"

She felt that Nongyu was more suited to the poem than herself, but she didn't want to say it out loud. She also had her own selfish desires, hoping that the poem could become hers alone.

Cao Yuan revealed the true nature of a wolf in sheep's clothing and laughed, "So, how does Miss Zi Nu plan to reward me?"

He took out a perfectly blooming orchid, which he had casually taken from the vase while Zi Nu was savoring the memory.

"I dedicate this flower to my beloved under the moon. I wonder if Miss Zi Nu would accept it?"

Cao Yuan's words also contained a double entendre.

Zi Nu accepted the orchid with a smile.

"Sir, you are truly irresistible to me, but..."

She smiled charmingly and said, "I never said I would reward you by making myself your wife."

Cao Yuan wasn't disappointed; he would have found it strange if it had been so easy to succeed.

He smiled reservedly: "It seems that Miss Zi Nu has seriously considered me just now. I am not without a chance."

Zi Nu chuckled, unable to hold back any longer.

"Sir, you are truly, truly amusing..."

If Cao Yuan had said those words when they first met, she certainly wouldn't have acted that way. Instead, she would have maintained her charming, noble, elegant, reserved, and composed demeanor.

But now, she just finds Cao Yuan interesting and wants to learn more about him.

She admitted that she had developed a slight liking for this man.

"Please wait a moment, sir. Zi Nu will bring your reward right away."

The purple maiden gracefully departed, leaving behind only a lingering fragrance that stirred the imagination.

Han Fei looked at Cao Yuan's smiling face, his lips twitching. He really wanted to spit on Cao Yuan, thinking how shameless he was.

He used to say he wanted to marry his younger sister, but now, in front of him, he's flirting with women and even wants to marry one of them.

What? Do you want his little sister to be a concubine, or do you want her to share a husband with another woman?

However, Han Fei didn't know that his bruised and swollen face looked rather ridiculous to outsiders, making him appear truly shameless.

Third floor.

Zi Nu said earnestly, "Hong Yu, Cai Die, I have an important task for you."

"Sister Zi Nu, what kind of mission is it?"

Cai Die fastened her light blue belt, her eyes like stars as she looked at Zi Nu and asked.

Hongyu was also very curious, as she rarely saw her sister Zinu so serious.

"Tonight, you will all go and serve a man. Use your clever and lively little mouths to coax everything that man knows out of him, understand?"

Hongyu and Caidie blushed at the same time. They had just gotten married and were still virgins. Were they going to serve the same man together?

"Understood, Sister Zi Nu. We will do our best."

Hongyu and Caidie were just a little shy, and didn't think there was anything wrong with Zinu's arrangement.

If it weren't for Sister Zi Nu's adoption, they would have died somewhere long ago.

Therefore, the sisters in the attic were very grateful to Sister Zi Nu.

Zi Nu whispered a few more words, then smiled slightly as she watched Hong Yu and Cai Die's slender backs.

Cai Die and Hong Yu were her newly trained sisters, neither of whom were virgins, and both of them had outstanding figures and appearances among the sisters of Zi Lan Xuan.

She had originally planned to use them to attract VIPs and obtain high-value intelligence, but now she has changed her mind.

She thought Cao Yuan would really like this reward.

It's unclear whether Cao Yuan wants to be a gentleman or an ordinary person.

"Clouds remind me of her garments, flowers of her face; the spring breeze caresses the balustrade, heavy with dew. If not seen atop Jade Mountain, she will surely be met beneath the moon on the Jade Terrace..."

Zi Nu walked along the corridor, humming softly, in a pleasant mood.

If Cao Yuan were to write her another poem that rivals this one, she might seriously consider marrying him.

Zi Nu thought with a hint of insatiable greed.

Chapter 82 The Must-Eat List at Zilan Pavilion, Two Beauties Go Together

"Brother Cao, this Zi Nu is no ordinary girl. You don't really intend to marry her, do you?"

Han Fei couldn't help but remind him.

Cao Yuan glanced at Han Fei, whose face was bruised and swollen like a pig's head, and said, "We're a perfect match, what business is it of yours, you monster?"

Han Fei was so angry he gritted his teeth, "You're the monster! Do you still want to marry my sister?"

"Of course I want to! Brother-in-law, please accept my bow."

Cao Yuan immediately acknowledged Han Fei as his brother-in-law.

Han Fei, both amused and exasperated, asked, "What are you thinking?"

Cao Yuan smiled meaningfully: "Didn't I say? Of the beauties from the seven kingdoms, I want ninety-nine."

Han Fei nearly coughed up a mouthful of hot blood.

Are you sure you were referring to beauties from the seven kingdoms?

Was it not a world ruled by the seven kingdoms?

As the two were talking, the door to the private room was slowly pushed open.

Two beautiful and vibrant figures walked in.

"Your servants Cai Die and Hong Yu greet Mr. Cao Yuan and Young Master Jiu."

The two women bowed gracefully, greeted him, and then secretly glanced at Cao Yuan. Their beautiful eyes lit up slightly. What a handsome man! No wonder he was favored by Sister Zi Nu and had them come to serve him.

Han Fei asked with a soft "Huh?", "Where is Miss Zi Nu?"

Cai Die smiled gently, "Sister Zi Nu is tired, so she specially asked me and Hong Yu to come and serve Mr. Cao Yuan for the night at Zi Lan Xuan."

Looking at the two beautiful young women, Han Fei subconsciously asked, "What about me?"

Cai Die chuckled: "Sister Zi Nu didn't say that if Young Master Jiu needs anything, I can ask other sisters to come and serve you, as long as you can pay the corresponding fees."

Han Fei was stunned for a moment, and even with his intelligence, it took him quite a while to react.

So Cao Yuan can enjoy it for free, but he has to pay for it?

"Hahaha……"

When Han Fei saw Cao Yuan laughing heartily, he couldn't help but cover his face and leave.

Cao Cao not only killed people, but also destroyed their spirits; how cruel!

Of course, Han Fei would never say that the reason he didn't want to stay was because... he didn't have any money!

The only valuable necklace he had was still with Cao Yuan.

Later, in order to conduct an on-site investigation of the situation in Wei and Han, he had to pawn the necklace that his younger sister had given him to Cao Yuan in exchange for fifty gold coins as travel expenses.

Cao Yuan saw Han Fei running away and just laughed it off.

He glanced at Hongyu and Caidie.

The two beautiful young women were in full bloom, standing side by side, shy and demure, as charming as a pair of twin lotus blossoms.

Cao Yuan patted the couch next to him.

"Come sit with me for a while."

Although it was their first time receiving guests and they were still a little shy, Cai Die and Hong Yu obediently went over and sat down next to Cao Yuan on either side.

Cai Die held the zither, placed it on her lap, and gently stroked it. "What tune would you like to hear, sir? I'll play it for you."

Cao Yuan chuckled, "No rush to play the piano, let's chat for a while first."

Hongyu half-holds Cao Yuan's arm and says with a smile, "What would you like to talk about, sir?"

Cai Die put down her zither, poured Cao Yuan a glass of sake, smiled slightly, and stared intently at him.

It seemed that no matter what Cao Yuan wanted to say or talk about, she would give him the best response.

Cao Yuan looked at the beautiful Cai Die and Hong Yu and smiled slightly: "I still don't know where you two are from."

Cai Die smiled and said, "Nu Nu is from Qi. She was sold to Han when she was young and was taken in and raised by Sister Zi Nu."

Hongyu also laughed and said, "I am from Zhao. Due to the war, I was stranded in Han and had to beg for a living. If I hadn't met Sister Zinu, I would have starved to death on the streets long ago."

Cao Yuan nodded slightly, not surprised by Cai Die and Hong Yu's encounter.

Because the fate of most people in this era is roughly like this, or even worse.

"I have always heard that women from Qi are passionate, women from Chu are graceful, women from Yan are elegant, women from Han are beautiful, women from Zhao are gentle, women from Wei are gorgeous, and women from Qin are heroic. Today, seeing these two beauties with their outstanding demeanor and gentle charm, I realize that their reputation is well-deserved."

Cai Die covered her mouth and chuckled, "Sir, are you referring to Zhang Yi's 'On the Jade Maiden'?"

Cao Yuan smiled and said, "That's right, that's exactly the point."
