Chapter 235: A Real Fierce Warrior

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Su Wen gathered Xiang Feiyan together with these people to test her response to them.

These people might be Su Wen’s people, but to Xiang Feiyan, Su Wen was the person she trusted the most.

Hence, these people could also be called her people.

However, to the outside world, she still had to put on an act. Thus, she did not hold it in the palace, nor did she go to the Nanli King’s Residence with great fanfare.

Most of the time, it was like this. For example, you might still working hard in a unit or company, but many things had already been decided by others in private.

When they communicated, no one would know.

They met and chatted, mainly to let Xiang Feiyan understand them better.

After chatting for a while…

Seeing that they had become much more familiar with each other, it was about time.

Su Wen smiled and said, “There’s one more thing I need Your Majesty’s help with.” In front of outsiders, Su Wen would not call her Feiyan.

There had to be a limit to his actions.

He knew this very well. It was a taboo for people to be unable to differentiate the situation.

For example, Xu You. He privately addressed Cao Cao as Cao A’man, or spoke a little more impudently. Even if Cao Cao was unhappy, he might not kill him.

However, if he did this in public, he would be courting death.

Xiang Feiyan was close to Su Wen and would even address him as Daddy in private… or even lick his feet.

However, that did not mean that Su Wen could act recklessly in front of others.

Or rather, even if Xiang Feiyan did not care, Su Wen had to be magnanimous.

This was how people interacted with others. If not, perhaps one day, a rift might form between them.

Even those close to him were not necessarily immune to such a thing.

Let’s give the simplest example.

For example, for a couple, when they were at home, the man could get scolded by the girl.

He would not take it seriously either.

But if he really went out and got together with his friends, any boy would feel dissatisfied if the girl scolded him in front of everyone.

Similarly, just like how men wanted to protect their egos, Xiang Feiyan was an emperor, and she also needed others to maintain the respect and etiquette she deserved.

She kept calling him ‘Little Brother Wen’ because she was giving Su Wen face and showing off her favor.

To put it bluntly, by calling Su Wen like this, she was blatantly telling others that Su Wen was hers.

But for Su Wen, if he really called her Feiyan…

That would be a slap in the face.

Even if Xiang Feiyan acted like she did not care, others would secretly think that Su Wen was too domineering. Xiang Feiyan being too weak was a form of weakening to her authority as an emperor.

Being domineering also needed some level of knowledge. Being domineering did not mean that one had to be naive and not understand the ways of the world.

Details were the key to human interaction.

When Xiang Feiyan heard Su Wen speak, she smiled and said, “Brother Wen, what area do you need my help?”

Su Wen smiled and pointed at Wu Lie. “This brother-in-law of mine, Wu Lie, is a 7th Grade Earth Rank cultivator. He can be considered a genius at his age. Two days ago, he met a princess in the palace… and fell in love with her. Hence, I would like to ask Your Majesty to help me matchmake them.”

Xiang Feiyan sized up Wu Lie.

He had a tall and burly figure, and his facial features could be said to be handsome. He was indeed in every form a talent.

Furthermore, with his high cultivation, it was not impossible for him to be paired with a princess.

She smiled and said, “I wonder which princess Minister Wu has taken a fancy to?”

She had already classified Wu Lie as her court official.

When Wu Lie heard this, he was overjoyed. He hurriedly said, “It’s the Third Princess!”

When Xiang Feiyan heard this, she looked at Su Wen suspiciously.

Su Wen felt that there was something wrong with her gaze and asked curiously, “Your Majesty, is there a problem?”

Xiang Feiyan said, “Is there a mistake? Third Sister is already married to the Army Commander of the Wan Prefecture and has not been in the capital for many years. How can Minister Wu meet her? How can he fall in love with her?”

Upon hearing this, Wu Lie was somewhat dumbfounded.

Su Wen also looked at Wu Lie and asked in confusion, “Didn’t you still not know which princess she was the other day? How did you know it was the Third Princess today? Are you mistaken?”

Wu Lie said, “It shouldn’t be wrong. She admitted that she’s a princess of the royal family. That day, I waited outside the palace. After the court session ended, I saw her come out and saw someone call her Third Sister! Could it be that she’s not the Third Princess? Perhaps she’s a princess or something.”

“Eh?”

Su Wen and Xiang Feiyan felt that something was amiss.

Court Assembly?

“You’re saying that the princess went to court?” Su Wen asked.

Wu Lie nodded and said, “That’s right. She was dressed like a military official… That valiant and heroic bearing is extremely charming…”

Sssssss…

Su Wen and Xiang Feiyan both drew a sharp intake of breath.

How could there be a woman in the Great Chu Royal Court?

The only princess in the military uniform… was the Third Prince!

“This…” If it were anyone else, Xiang Feiyan would definitely be able to do it even if she did not say it. However, it was definitely not a problem to matchmake them together. However, the Third Prince…

What should she say?

Could she gp tell her Third Brother that she would introduce a man to him?

Xiang Feiyan felt that this was nonsensical.

She looked at Su Wen pleadingly.

At this moment, Su Wen’s expression was also twisted.

What should he say?

How could Wu Lie’s love interest be so coincidental?

Why did he choose the Third Prince of all people?!

This guy was too unlucky!

Did he poop on the God of Matchmaking’s temple in his previous life?

What sort of blasphemy had he committed to be tortured like this?

“Wu Lie… If you ask me… I think we should change your target…” Su Wen could not bear to tell Wu Lie the truth.

Wu Lie looked confused. “That’s not what you said the other day…”

Su Wen smiled bitterly. “This person is a little unusual!”

Wu Lie slapped his thigh and said excitedly, “That’s right. I want to be unique. I don’t think she has any girlishness at all. Her words and actions are straightforward and generous. Even when she scolds people, she scolds them so naturally. That’s what I want.”

“That person is really not suitable…”

“I think it seems plausible!”

Seeing Wu Lie’s stubbornness…

Su Wen couldn’t be bothered to argue with him. He smiled at everyone and said, “Then that’s all for today. Let’s disperse first.”

He couldn’t possibly tell Wu Lie the truth in front of so many people. Once he said it, Wu Lie would feel embarrassed.

As everyone dispersed, Su Wen pulled Wu Lie to stay behind.

After everyone left… only Xiang Feiyan, Wu Lie, and Su Wen were left.

Su Wen said honestly, “Wu Lie, brother-in-law, you’re really my good brother-in-law. You’re too ruthless. Do you know that the person you fancy is not the Third Princess at all! It’s the Third Prince!”

Wu Lie was furious. “Bullsh*t! Do you think I’m blind? Which man has such fair skin and beautiful facial features? And that chest, it’s so puffed up. You’re telling me she’s a man?”

Su Wen smiled bitterly. “She’s just a little fairer, more handsome, and her chest muscles are more developed. You can’t say that he’s not a man through this.”

“You’re calling that chest ‘much more developed’? Do you think I’ve never seen a woman before?”

Wu Lie roared angrily.

At this moment, Xiang Feiyan said, “Minister Wu, Brother Wen is telling the truth. The person you’re looking at should be my third brother.”

“Then why did the other person call her Third Sister that day?” Wu Lie could not accept this reality!

“Um… because my fourth brother is more mischievous…”

Xiang Feiyan could only explain.

What was it like to be struck by lightning?

It was the current Wu Lie.

Su Wen looked at the stunned Wu Lie as if a familiar song was playing in his ears once again… “Snowflakes fluttered, while the north wind howled…”

Wu Lie stood there on the spot. He had no idea what he was supposed to think or feel about this.

Suddenly, he remembered something.

He looked at Su Wen and said fiercely, “Don’t you have a Sex Change Pill… Hurry up and give it to me! Let him eat it!”

He remembered that Su Wen had once shown him a Heaven Rank medicinal pill.

This guy had gone crazy… he could not accept this blow…

Su Wen said helplessly, “Actually, he became like this after eating half a pill… Because he only ate half a pill… he’s still a man in essence…”

When Wu Lie heard this, he was overjoyed!

“Hahaha! You should have said so earlier. My good brother, quickly give her the other half as well! This way, I can marry her. I won’t care about her past.”

“Hiss!” Su Wen looked at Wu Lie.

This brother was just too brave.

Even if he managed to really change fully, in his heart… the Third Prince was still a man.

Was Wu Lie so open with his choices?

Xiang Feiyan also stared at Wu Lie with her mouth agape. Suddenly, she laughed and chimed in, “Brother Wen, I think what Minister Wu said makes sense. If you can’t do it, then give the remaining half to Third Brother.”

“I can’t!” Su Wen smiled bitterly.

Wu Lie said anxiously, “Why? It can’t be that you can’t bear to lose it, right?”

“I’ve already given the other half to another person,” Su Wen said honestly.

Wu Lie subconsciously asked, “Who did you give it to?”

“Emperor Zhou…”

Wu Lie: “…”

“In other words… Emperor Zhou has also become like the Third Prince?” Wu Lie’s attention was temporarily pulled away.

He thought about how the former emperor had become like this…

He was actually a little excited in his heart.

Su Wen said, “Probably. I don’t know either. I ran away after drugging him, but I saw that Emperor Zhou had sent out a Royal Decree… so he should have changed…”

Wu Lie pondered for a moment before sitting down on the chair.

His eyes lost focus…

Obviously, this truth was too great a blow to him.

On the other side, Xiang Feiyan went to Su Wen’s side.

She whispered in a low voice, “Did you really give that half to the Zhou Emperor?”

Su Wen nodded and said, “He killed my father, so I naturally won’t let him off.”

Xiang Feiyan kissed him and said in a low voice, “Brother Wen, don’t be sad. One day, our Chu Country will be able to destroy the Zhou Country.”

The two of them were in the midst of showing their affection to this single dog Wu Lie.

Meanwhile, our poor Wu Lie sat there in a daze, as though his soul had left his body.

“I want to drink!” Wu Lie suddenly said.

Su Wen patted his shoulder helplessly. “I’ll accompany you!”

Seeing this situation, Xiang Feiyan also stood up and left.

On this day, Wu Lie drank a lot. When the alcohol kicked in, he pulled Su Wen and wailed…

Finally… he was sent back to his residence.

Lying on the bed, Wu Lie looked at the roof of his room.

He panted heavily.

“F**k! Why am I so unlucky!” Wu Lie cursed.

With the help of the alcohol, Wu Lie began to think.

Suddenly, a strange thought surfaced in his mind… The Third Prince was actually not much different from a woman at this moment…

Other than not being able to have children… he… no no, she was essentially a woman.

Wu Lie was aware of the existence of male prostitutes.

If that was possible… why couldn’t it apply to the Third Prince?

In any case, he had a f*cking younger brother!

Even if he really did not have a son, it was not a big deal!

If there was no other way, he could just marry two concubines to carry on the line.

He sat up immediately.

His eyes were bloodshot as he came to this conclusion.

A true warrior would dare to face the dismal life and face the fresh blood that decorated a war!

If Su Wen knew that Wu Lie had such thoughts after drinking…

He would definitely praise him for being a true warrior and how terrifying he was.

Wu Lie immediately left the room!

Under the influence of the alcohol, he yelled, “Get the carriage! I’m going to the Third Prince’s residence!”

Now that he knew that it was the Third Prince, there was no need for him to wait for him in the palace.

At this moment, the Third Prince was having his meal at home.

For his meals now, he was not so careful anymore. He did not even want to test for poison.

It didn’t matter anymore.

In reality, the Third Prince was not young anymore, but after consuming the Sex Change Pill, he looked as beautiful as a young girl.

It could only be said that the effects of this pill were too good.

These days, he was living in constant agony…

Including his Madam and his child, the way they looked at him had changed…

In this era, there were almost no people who could accept his situation.

While they were eating..

Suddenly, a loud roar came from outside. “Miss Xiang, I want to see you!”

It was Wu Lie!

He came to the residence and requested to see the Third Prince, but the guards did not dare to report it when they saw that he was drunk and had no name card.

Thus, our brave fellow circulated his True Qi and simply roared.

At that moment, the few people who were eating in the room looked at the Third Prince with strange gazes!

The Third Prince’s face turned pale!

He knew who it was without even going out!

Other than Su Wen’s stupid brother-in-law, no one else called him in this manner!

“Hmph! I’ll go out for a while.” Seeing Wu Lie shouting outside, the Third Prince naturally would not allow him to do as he pleased.

He immediately stood up and left without eating!

He came to the door and saw Wu Lie. He shouted, “What are you shouting for?”

Seeing him come out, Wu Lie immediately cowered… He whispered, “They won’t let me see you! They won’t report my presence.”

The Third Prince sighed. He was truly convinced at this point.

Seeing that all the servants were present, he waved his hand and the rest retreated. He walked to Wu Lie’s side and whispered, “Brother, I really didn’t lie to you! I’m really a man! I was plotted against and became like this.”

“I believe you!” Wu Lie said seriously.

The Third Prince was quite pleased, “That’s good, the misunderstanding has been resolved. We’re all friends.”

However, to his surprise, the intoxicated Wu Lie stared at him and said, “But I don’t care!”

The Third Prince had an expression of utter shock plastered on his face.

He felt as though he had been electrified!

Did this bastard know what he was talking about?

“Miss Xiang, since you’ve already become like this, in my opinion, you’re a woman! I will still like you!” Wu Lie confessed seriously!

The Third Prince immediately felt like he was better off dead.

“Brother! I beg you! Please let me go!” The Third Prince begged.

Suddenly, Wu Lie grabbed him and kissed him on the lips!

“Uhhmm!”

The Third Prince’s eyes widened.

He clenched his fists and tensed up his body in response!

Finally, Wu Lie let go and laughed loudly. “Miss Xiang, as expected! My body can accept you!”

The Third Prince was still frozen solid.

Was he… being molested?

“Ah?!”

He screamed!

“Men, break his legs!” The Third Prince could no longer hold it in.

At that moment, the guards in the residence rushed out. Wu Lie stood up and escaped with a maniacal laugh.

The Third Prince stood on the spot, trembling in anger.

As for Su Wen, he had no idea what had transpired. Right now, he was currently playing games at home.

At this moment, there were five Cui Yumian standing in front of Su Wen…

He had accumulated quite a lot of Emotional Value these days, so our Young Master Su decided to squander some today!

He directly exchanged for several Phantom Masks,

Playing meant having fun!

Cultivation? Not important.

“Heehee, guess which one is the real Sister Cui…” one of them, Cui Yumian, said.

Su Wen walked in front of her and chuckled. “You definitely aren’t. Sister Muyu’s acting skills are not good.”

“Hmph!”

“Yo, yo, yo… these eyes, it’s Yiyi.”

“This height… Wanrou.”

“This thigh… Luoying…”

“This last one must be the real Yumian…”

Too familiar, too familiar!

It was easy to tell!

However… the visual impact of five together was still very good…

At this moment, Su Wen suddenly froze…

He frowned as he turned back to survey the surroundings of his house.

A large amount of Heaven Earth Origin Qi was gathering outside!

Bang!

Ni Hongxiao’s room… exploded!

Su Wen hurriedly rushed out.

He saw Ni Hongxiao standing in the courtyard with a cold expression.

“Are you alright?”

“There was an accident. Mo Xin created this thing by combining spirit arrays with energy stones to trigger the Heaven Earth Origin Qi and detonate it. It was not my area of expertise, so I accidentally blew it up…”

That’s right, the research results that Su Wen snatched from Great Zhou were given to Ni Hongxiao.

However, it was obvious that the two of them had different research directions. Ni Hongxiao’s professionalism in this aspect was still inferior to Mo Xin.

“Its power is not bad either. It’s fortunate that I set up a defensive spirit array in advance and only blew up the house. Otherwise, the force generation shouldn’t be a problem to level this mansion.” Ni Hongxiao took out a small notebook and recorded as she spoke to Su Wen.

Su Wen smiled bitterly. “Can we not do something so dangerous at home next time?”

“Hmm… it’s not dangerous. It’s not beyond my calculations of the degree of explosion.” Obviously, the two of them had different levels of judgment on the term ‘dangerous’.

Su Wen smiled. “Since the laboratory is destroyed, are you going to rest tonight?”

Ni Hongxiao narrowed her eyes: “What do you mean?”

“Want to play together?”

“Hmph, idiot, I don’t want to!”

“Come on!”

“No!”

In the end, Su Wen did not convince Ni Hongxiao. Ni Hongxiao did not like this kind of stuff at all.

The next day, In the Great Chu Imperial Court, the officials gathered. Su Wen was amongst them.

The palace maid shouted, “Report if there’s anything. If there’s nothing else, withdraw from the court.”

Basically, there were no eunuchs in the palace now.

Su Wen stood up and bowed. “This subject has a report to make!”

Everyone looked at him. One had to know that Su Wen had never interfered in the government affairs of the royal court.

Xiang Feiyan smiled. “What’s the matter, Brother Wen?”

Su Wen said, “I want to recommend a few talents!”

“Oh? Who are you recommending?”

“I recommend four generals. They are Yan Luoying, Yan Ze, Su Cheng, and Wu Lie!”

“The civil official for recommendation is Su Yu!”

Su Wen spoke frankly and confidently, “The four generals were once famous generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty. They have fought with the Yan Country for many years and served His Majesty. They will definitely increase the prestige of our Great Chu Army.”

“As for this Su Yu, he was once the top scholar of the Zhou Country and was even the son of the former Prime Minister of the Great Zhou, Su Changqing. He was talented and knowledgeable, and could also be considered a pillar of the country.”

“These people, if I recommend them to Your Majesty, they can all become pillars for my Great Chu!”

Everyone frowned at Su Wen’s words!

Obviously, he was planning to plant his own people in the court!
