Lan Wangshu glanced at him secretly. This emperor himself was moody. He was so gentle just now, but suddenly his expression changed.

"I've heard everything about you."

Lan Wangshu's heart skipped a beat. Oh no, this was aimed at her. Such a status must be obtained.

"I don't know what you have heard, but you can't take it all seriously. Word of mouth is bound to become more and more outrageous."

The girl seemed to remember something and smiled.

"what are you laughing at?"

Chen Yanshu raised his eyebrows, feeling a little confused.

"I was thinking about how I fell down at the entrance of the village a few days ago and bled. The next day, someone saw me and ran away in fear, asking me if I was dead. It turned out that I just fell down, but the rumor spread and it turned out that I was dead."

She just suddenly thought of a joke she saw while watching videos in modern times. Since Chen Yanshu was willing to ask, she was of course willing to answer his questions.

Everyone present had an indescribable look on their face. Perhaps they didn't expect someone would make such a joke. The smile on Chen Yanshu's face faded, and his whole aura became overbearing. He took a step towards Lan Wangshu.

She stood there not daring to move. It was true that serving a king is like serving a tiger. This man must be from Sichuan, otherwise how could he change his face so quickly.

"Miss Lan, who do you think dares to lie to me? This is not funny."

Lan Wangshu rolled his eyes, pursed his lips, and began to cry with his head down. He didn't say a word, just tears falling.

"You...why are you crying?"

Chen Yanshu didn't expect that just one sentence would scare the little girl to tears. Even if the women in the harem were afraid, they still mustered up the courage to please him. This was the first time he saw someone crying directly.

Lan Wangshu secretly pinched his soft flesh, thinking that he would be sent to the harem in the future and share a rotten cucumber with others. Even if he had a system and was a modern person, he could not escape the imperial power, and he couldn't help but feel sad.

She cried very sadly. Her crying didn't look ugly, just tears rolling down one by one. She didn't speak or howl, and just sniffed occasionally.

Chen Yanshu's heart was soft, and he indeed looked sensible after crying.

"Okay, I went too far, stop crying."

When Lan Wangshu heard that the emperor was willing to give her a way out, of course she accepted it. She showed the cuteness and innocence of a little girl, with a red nose, and no one knew if it was from crying or being cold. Anyway, she looked as aggrieved as she could be.

"I'm just a little girl, why do you have to scare me like this, sir? I don't like you, you are so fierce."

Chen Yanshu was silent for a while, somewhat hesitant as to whether his choice was right. No matter how smart this child was, she was still a child. But thinking about the news he had received, he still felt that training her was the most suitable candidate.

It will take two or three years to train it and it will be usable. This is the only solution.

He looked at Lan Wangshu and didn't think he had done anything wrong. If she saw the magnificent palace and had some experience with power, she might like it.

Chen Yanshu had no choice but to be patient and coax her with one sentence. The eunuch's eyes almost popped out and he glared at Lan Wangshu who was still crying with his head down. He said she really didn't know what was good for her. Even the emperor came to coax her in person, but she was still so shameless.

Cang Wenyuan could only watch blankly from the side. He didn't believe that Lan Wangshu was crying because she was scared. She was just acting. She was so brave that she even dared to act in front of the emperor.

He couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration rising slowly in his heart. What a talented person! What do you call him? He is both brave and resourceful.

"How can you stop crying?"

Lan Wangshu raised his eyes in horror, then quickly lowered his eyelashes, twitching. It was obvious that he was forcibly suppressing his emotions and trying not to cry. Chen Yanshu had a headache. Their first meeting didn't seem to leave a good impression on her.

He had a headache. The women in the harem were all carefully trained and sent in by aristocratic families for power. They had received a good education since childhood. Lan Wangshu's appearance was indeed not presentable enough.

"I heard that you killed the bandit?"

"No, I just used a slingshot to restrict his movements. I didn't hurt any vital parts. Some people in the village who were only good at fighting and kicking killed him."

"I heard that you were the one who came up with this donation method."

"That's true. I'm a businessman with no foundation. I just want to establish a relationship with the government so that I won't be bullied by others when doing business in the county. I can also gain a good reputation. If the name of the store is known, more people will come and I can make more money."

Lan Wangshu spoke so fluently, wanting to reveal all her secret plans. She looked trembling with fear, as if she did not dare to deceive Chen Yanshu and reveal all the hidden motives. She was nothing but a calculating businessman.

Chen Yanshu raised his eyebrows. It was obvious that this was very different from what he had heard. He heard that Zui Fusheng had already started promoting charity when there was no disaster.

"Really? I didn't expect you to be so honest."

Lan Wangshu didn't know whether this sentence was a compliment to her. She couldn't hear any emotion in it and could only lower her head embarrassedly.
