Chapter 333 (2/2)
He had spoken slowly in the cabin and al on the floor Ever since her youngfa for all these years on how to take back the family business However, his true identity was their closest guarded secret The heads of the Jiangnan water villages had no idea that their boss was actually a descendant of a wealthy fa family, those rich merchants, were also completely in the dark They even soes in Jiangnan
Other than herself, nobody knew of this secret because of an extra layer of closeness with Seventh Ming, one that outsiders didn't know about Guan Wumei didn't believe that there was another person who knew the head of Jiangnan's water villages', Xia Qifei's, true past How could she expect this young h to the truth at once?
Fan Xian suddenly thought of soet it now The Cui fa family is sad, they are also happy to take over the Cui fa wouldn't pass up this opportunity to enter thefamily In March, the palace treasury will put out new bids, and the Jiangnan water villages will be a blank slate Seventh Ming wants revenge, and he wants to steal the palace treasury sales documents This all needs money, and it's no wonder he's as anxious as ever”
Guan Wu, What God is this frail looking young man? How does he know so uarded court secrets, yet the other party guessed young hts in just a moment She saw that there was a warm smile on the corner of Fan Xian's lips, but her body was frozen and unable to ood etiquette Why bother for just a few hundred liang of silver?” Fan Xian sighed
Before he had coinally had athat the Overwatch Council had discovered in their secret investigations After all, the other party had a somewhat similar past to him Now that he had discovered that the other party's ood, he couldn't help but feel disappointed
He sighed to himself and lowered his head It was only then that he noticed the silent Guan Wuetically and said, ”I like to talk toin a moment”
Guan Wuht about this and said, ”I'm not someone who likes to kill people Besides, I still have to talk business with your et too vengeful without knowing enough infore the business between us”
That night, Guan Wumei had been stunned so often that she felt nu master's true identity, then of course he would be able to find out about the connection between them Only, he'd said…business? She wished she could be reincarnated
With difficulty she said, ”Sir, my family leader is currently downstreauessed that Fan Xian was likely a representative frodou, and that hy he had such powerful guards and knew so ht was our fault I'll bring gifts as an apology in the future”
After hearing their previous conversation, she thought that the other party would let her go Unexpectedly, the young ht and for a while, didn't speak Unable to help herself, she dejectedly said, ”Sir, we all walk the jianghu You've already killed a dozen of er?”
”Jianghu? Does this world really have a jianghu?” Fan Xian sh to satisfy er; it was just one way to deal with the issue I won't let you leave this shi+p, at least until I need you to This is to prevent you frounnecessary trouble to Jiangnan”
Guan Wunize the great amount of self-confidence in his tone In a hoarse and hopeless voice she asked, ”Matters of the jianghu are resolved on the jianghu What exactly do you want to do?”
There was absolute silence in the cabin, and after a htly
”You're hu” He propped up his chin and looked at Guan Wumei's white face with amusement ”I don't have the time or effort to deal with such a ht that her ene more and more mysterious Unable to stop herself she asked, ”Whowho exactly are you?”
”Me?” Fan Xian thought about this seriously ”I aeneration eneration uesses before they had boarded the shi+p, Guan Wumei almost spat out a mouthful of blood
”You're a bandit” Fan Xian stared into her eyes, and spoke each of his words clearly ”And I am a powerful bandit Now that you're on my bandit shi+p, I, as the host, will look after you well Of course, your Seventh Ming is also about to coain in this lifetime”
Guan Wumei finally understood that this other party didn't want to do business with Seventh Ming, they wanted to use hi! You're only worthy enough to polish my et angry, he just laughed out loud and rose froolden needle and pricked her a few tioing to respond to her, but then decided that there wasn't , will likely be sincerely polishi+ng my shoes n just a few days I only hope that you won't be too surprised when it happens
After everything was dealt with, the sailors who had been waiting in the lower level brought up a huge bucket of water froh Guan Wumei was the only one who had bled on the shi+p, she'd lost a lot of blood from her severed wrist and it took quite soain after all the cleaning was done Everyone yawned exhaustedly and went back to sleep The shi+p resumed its silence, as if the earlier events had never happened
”Go to sleep; there will be so at Gao Da The regulations of the Qing Kingdouards worked in two shi+fts, but Fan Xian forcefully changed it to three shi+fts Although there were less people each shi+ft, he believed that those capitalistic people in the world had their own reasons for splitting the people they exploited into three shi+fts It probably ensured better work efficiency
Pushi+ng aside the thick, cloth curtain, he walked along the passageway that went through the cabins until he reached the end Fan Xian stopped and twisted his head to glance at shi+ Chanli's room As expected, the scholar was still sound asleep Su Wen the door with an exhausted expression It was deep into the night, and the two didn't speak to each other
Walking to the rooer Guards on duty outside and gently pushed the door open He walked straight to the bed and sat down Looking at the little boy beneath the blankets, he remained silent for quite soular features and seee But, Fan Xian knew that this kid was a lot tougher than he looked The shi+p rocked and he pulled up the blanket on the bed, covering the boy's shoulders The wind on the river was icy, and it wouldn't be good for hihtly shut eyes twitched slightly
Fan Xian laughed quietly The child had probably woken up long ago, and was only pretending to be asleep He suddenly realized that a child of eight or nine that was easier to wake up than shi+ Chanli probably hadof this, he couldn't help but eh It was easy, when born to a royal family, for immoral desires and ploys for power to result in the creation of strange children This little boy was sometimes loathsome, but he was also very pitiful
He didn't have the energy to expose the child's trick, but he instead lost focus and thought of the issue Wan'er had re completely different in mind, but couldn't yu Hall were not on the shi+p heading south Since Fan Xian was secretly going to Jiangnan, the group of fa towards Danzhou needed to look very realistic At the middle of the Wei River, the fake Co the way, there were Black Knights protecting them, and they had all of the shopkeepers Everyone in the court would probably think that he was travelling with that group, and no one would ever i point of the Wei River and the Yangtze River
Although they were taking the ays and couldn't have the Black Knights give theest defense, Fan Xian wasn't worried at all about their safety There were seven Tiger Guards on board, as well as swordsman from the Sixth Bureau With so many masters and assassins on one shi+p, besides a personal visit froe to touch his finger?
His warently patted the Third Prince's back, but his face was turned away and lost in thought The most valuable person on the shi+p was this prince With such a valuable gee to move his family soldiers and provincial warriors in the future, he could probably find a good excuse to do so
The current scenario was a bit odd, but Fan Xian was a daring nity of the royal fa to treat the Third Prince as a student and younger brother was already giving the E sure everything was as it should be, Guan Wumei, with her severed hand wound, was thrown into the ordinary prison in the lower level It was only then could Fan Xian cohtly swollen temples, he returned to his roo on the side of the bed She had her chin propped up with one hand, and her entire body swayed back and forth with the rocking of the shi+p The girl was a She was already this sleepy and she still didn't fall down
Fan Xian chuckled and knew that she wouldn't let herself sleep until he was resting as well Not daring to make a noise, he tiptoed over and slid one hand under her arreen old coat and felt like a big round bundle It was like he was holding a large furry bear
He carefully placed Sisi onto the bed, not wanting to disturb her dreams Unexpectedly, she still woke up and opened her eyes, her sleepy confusion i She forced herself to sit up and said with a s hed and scolded her, ”I've already slept earlier; who needs sheets? You're already disorientated frohed ”The bed is all cold now When you were little, you hated cold blankets Didn't you always havethese words, Fan Xian paused and suddenly reether in the old o In just a blink of an eye, two years had passed He'd been busy scra out as an envoy Withoutto, he had drifted apart from Sisi Luckily, Sisi still treated him with intimacy Unintentionally, his heart war to warht?”
These words were a bit flirtatious, but they both were aware that Sisi was a girl ould eventually have to prepare herself to o, prepared herself htly at his question, and didn't make a cheerful reply as she would have in the past She only took off her outer coat and slipped herself entirely under the blankets
She slid into the young master's bed with only a headful of black locks visible on the white pillow It was ridiculously alluring
Fan Xian paused, then removed his clothes and burrowed into the blankets as well While they were in Danzhou, they'd grown up together and shared a bed nuether in the blankets on plenty of occasions Other than that final thing, they'd already done every other possible intihts had yet to be put out in their cabin Fan Xian hugged the girl from behind, his hands wrapped around her front He held onto her slightly cold hands His chest was pressed against her back, and he could hear her breathing in front of hihtened his hold on her even ently bit her lower lip as she said this There was a trace of grief and hidden bitterness in her voice
Fan Xian didn't say anything back He just breathed in the light scent of her hair and took in the feel of her nimble body with his embrace He easily allowed his mind to return back to the situation in Danzhou His whole body felt unbelievably relaxed and at ease
