Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage
Chapter 1264 - 1263: Could it be, even you can’t do it?

Chapter 1264: Chapter 1263: Could it be, even you can’t do it?

"He dare not agree." The one who answered this question, however, was Chu Jiangnan.

Feng Yexuan’s eyes flickered slightly: "Could it be that this Mr. Lan had violated some taboo, which is why he was expelled from the Lan Family?"

From the moment Lan Fan entered the grand hall, Feng Yexuan could clearly see that this man was filled with ruthless schemes and conspiracies.

Calm and nonchalant, indifferent to fame and fortune; such words, I’m afraid only a few people above in the grand hall could believe.

Perhaps only the Prince, a warlike general who only favors the battlefield, could still possess an untainted heart among those who made their way to this grand hall.

The rest could somewhat discern Lan Fan’s true nature.

How could a man who covets power and status willingly leave the Lan Family?

"Indeed, Lan Fan did violate a decree and hence was expelled from the Lan Family," Chu Qianli said.

Without saying much, everyone ought to understand this decree.

Because Chu Qianli had said before that as long as one is an heir of the Lan Family, their pure and chaste blood could be verified as that of an unsullied youth.

His inability to comply indicates he is no longer of unsullied body.

"I am merely puzzled as to how you came to know of this?" Chu Jiangnan’s gaze fell upon Chu Qianli.

"It seems the relationship between you and the State Preceptor is indeed not simple."

"Consider us comrades in adversity, I suppose. He aided me, and I saved him... yes, it’s reciprocal salvation," Chu Qianli replied with levity, without a hint of guilt. Some matters might remain murky, but her candor gave a sense of integrity and openness.

She and the National Advisor are definitely not involved in any improper personal affair.

Chu Jiangnan nodded and did not pursue the matter further.

"So, the verification matter about the heir of the Lan Family was also mentioned by the National Advisor?" Chu Wang thought, so many secrets of which he had no knowledge!

And he’s been living in Nanming for almost thirty years!

"I made it up," Chu Qianli replied with a light smile.

Chu Wang was left speechless.

She spoke as if it were the truth; even Lan Fan believed it.

"His belief only shows his Martial Arts are not yet perfected. If the National Advisor were to regain his strength, he would certainly not be a match for him," Chu Qianli added.

The Lan Family is known for their Secret Technique and Fantasy Technique. Their martial prowess might not be extraordinary, but it’s their bizarre and extraordinary arts that make them hard to deal with.

It would be difficult for them to confront Lan Fan without the National Advisor regaining his strength.

"Your Majesty..."

"Hmm?" Chu Jiangnan raised an eyebrow.

Chu Qianli bit her lip and finally called out, "Father Emperor."

"Hmm." Chu Jiangnan then nodded his head.

In a gentle voice, Chu Qianli said, "We can’t be head-on with this Lan Fan; Father Emperor should just make use of him for now. We will have to wait until the National Advisor recovers before dealing with this matter."

"Little Xuanzi is highly skilled; could it be that even he can’t handle him?" Chu Wang had full confidence in the Prince’s disciple.

Unexpectedly, Feng Yexuan replied indifferently, "I am indeed superior to him in Martial Arts, but if it comes to confrontation, I am not his opponent."

"Little Xuanzi..." Isn’t this modesty? Who doesn’t know that Prince Yexuan is unrivaled in martial prowess?

"There is always someone better, and moreover, he knows things I do not."

Feng Yexuan was not so arrogant as to dismiss others outright.

Fantasy Technique, unpredictable and indefensible; without the certainty of victory, it’s best not to act rashly.

"Is there really no way to subdue him?" Chu Wang felt utterly helpless.

"Not necessarily."

Chu Qianli looked at Feng Yexuan, finding it rare to see Prince Yexuan showing humility; it was quite a revelation.

She grew even more convinced that she truly didn’t understand him well enough.

She said, "With the palace in such disarray just now, has Prince Yexuan already arranged for the National Advisor to be brought back to the palace?"
