Chapter 1419: Chapter 1418: Invite Her In
The King of Yu, not wanting to give Chu Qianli a chance to delay, immediately asked, "Does the Princess still have any doubts?"
"I just heard that the descendants of the Lan Family have many rules."
Chu Qianli’s gaze fell on Lan Fan and she seriously asked, "Especially the former State Preceptor, whose requirements for his direct disciples were very high."
"Naturally, all techniques must be mastered. If one doesn’t have substantial power, how can one fulfill the role of State Preceptor?"
The King of Yu snorted. So this little girl wanted to insinuate that Lan Fan was unqualified.
But she didn’t understand Lan Fan at all!
The King of Yu had personally experienced Lan Fan’s power.
His eyes were like two black holes, anyone who saw them would immediately fall into them, no matter how skilled in martial arts, they could not escape Mr. Lan’s illusion technique!
"If the Princess still has doubts, why not personally test Mr. Lan’s power! However, Mr. Lan rarely casts spells, and once he does, if the Princess suffers any harm, you cannot blame Mr. Lan."
"Little Lili, don’t!" Chu Jiangnan immediately stopped her.
Chu Qianli glanced at him, with a reassuring smile in her eyes.
In fact, Chu Jiangnan wasn’t fully aware of Chu Qianli’s plan either.
But she told him to trust her, so he fully trusted her and did not question further.
Some things, the more you ask, the more it might disrupt her strategy.
He could trust her, yet he still worried she might get hurt.
The Lan Family’s techniques, she might not withstand them!
"How could I doubt Mr. Lan’s power? I have always admired the Lan Family’s techniques and dare not provoke them."
Chu Qianli curled her lips into a faint smile and said, "I just heard that the position of State Preceptor requires a person of utmost purity and sanctity, just like our State Preceptor Lan Qing, who was subjected to the most perfect and rigorous training since childhood."
"He is indeed a person of utmost purity and sanctity, everyone knows this."
Everyone naturally agreed with Chu Qianli’s words.
However, the King of Yu glanced at Lan Fan, and though his expression did not change, there was a strange unease in his heart.
What did this little girl find out?
Ignoring him, Chu Qianli continued to look at Lan Fan and said, "Mr. Lan, I certainly do not doubt your power, but I wonder if your private life is as pure as the National Advisor’s?"
"Princess, what do you mean by that?"
Before Lan Fan could respond, the King of Yu said unhappily, "Mr. Lan is certainly unmatched in purity, how can you doubt him?"
"Is that so?"
Just as the King of Yu and Lan Fan hadn’t understood the meaning of Chu Qianli’s words, she waved her hand and said, "Please have Commandery Princess Feiyan come in."
Chu Feiyan!
Lan Fan’s eyes flickered.
The King of Yu’s heart sank suddenly.
The ministers began murmuring among themselves; what does this have to do with Chu Feiyan?
Chu Feiyan entered, escorted personally by Xi Jiu.
This Commandery Princess Feiyan, who used to be the apple of the King of Yu’s eye, was known by every official and citizen in the Imperial City.
Yet the girl before them, at first glance, where was the Commandery Princess Feiyan?
Her face was pale, her beauty withered, and she was so frail as if a wind could blow her down.
Especially her eyes, flickering with fear as she walked into the hall, like a frightened rabbit!
Where was the once flamboyant, dazzling Commandery Princess Feiyan?
If it weren’t for her undeniable resemblance to Chu Feiyan, no one would recognize her!
Why has this beautiful Commandery Princess become so withered and weary in just half a month?
