Quick Transmigration Sweet Story, The White Moonlight Rescue Plan

At the agreed time, Qu Xuan and Lu Zhao arrived as scheduled.

The two walked side by side into a secluded, dark place.

When a person's vision is affected in the dark, their hearing becomes more sensitive. Before he had gone far, Lu Zhao realized that there were more than just one or two people hiding there.

He knew something was wrong and immediately drew his longsword, its cold light gleaming as it aimed directly at the approaching figure.

The group of people emerging from the shadows quickly dodged and hurriedly shouted the coded signal, "Mani Mani Hong."

Lu Zhao was slightly taken aback, and loosened his grip a bit. "Open Sesame."

Although Lu Zhao's offensive had weakened somewhat, he remained vigilant, gripping his sword and pointing it at the crowd.

He sized up the people who came in, noting their dark-patterned clothing.

"Are you from the Dark Pavilion?"

The leader of the men in black stepped forward, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "My master invites you both inside for a detailed discussion."

As soon as the man in black finished speaking, the dead end at the deepest part of the alley opened up in an extremely strange way, leaving a passageway wide enough for one person.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Having chosen this path of vying for the throne, one is destined not to be a cowardly rat.

Qu Xuan and Lu Zhao exchanged a glance, reaffirming their resolve, and stepped inside.

After passing through the dark passageway for a short while, they arrived at a fairly spacious stone chamber, in the center of which sat a man wearing a mask.

The man had jet-black hair that fell over his shoulders, and wore a dark brocade robe with a gold-threaded snake pattern that looked even more sinister in the candlelight.

It seems this person is none other than Chen Fanfan, the elusive and mysterious leader of the Dark Pavilion.

Qu Xuan stood below the stage, looking up at Chen Fanfan without any fear. "I never expected that the composer would be His Highness the Pavilion Master."

Chen Fanfan looked down at the two people below the stage, feeling extremely satisfied with her vanity, and nodded in a pretentious manner.

"I wonder, what is the meaning behind the Pavilion Master's close proximity to Qu Xuan?"

Considering the turbulent situation in the court, this king in the darkness is undoubtedly someone capable of shaking the very foundations of the nation.

However, since the Pavilion Master never extended his influence into the court, Crown Prince Qu Xuan never managed to find any fault with him.

It was precisely because of this that Qu Xuan never expected that those parasites would enlist the help of the Dark Pavilion, which led to him accidentally falling into the Dark Pavilion's ambush last time and almost losing his life.

However, since his escape last time, the Dark Pavilion has not taken any further action, which puzzles Qu Xuan greatly. Even if it means death, he wants to find out the reason.

Chen Fanfan cleared her throat and waved for someone to bring up the silver she had previously obtained from those corrupt officials.

"The Pavilion Master said that the previous actions against the Third Prince were made by his subordinates on their own initiative, not by his will. Please do not worry about it, Your Highness. The person has already been dealt with."

Qu Xuan looked at the piles of silver and smiled crookedly, "I never thought that the life of a powerless little prince like me would be so valuable."

A moment of disappointment, then she regained her composure. "Sect Master, what does this mean?"

The Ace of Spades really had a hard time, running into such a pretentious Pavilion Master. He glared at Chen Fanfan at the head of the table and continued, "The Pavilion Master wants to use this opportunity to show his sincerity to the Third Prince and also wants to make friends with him."

Qu Xuan raised an eyebrow, roughly understanding Chen Fanfan's meaning, and said calmly, "The Pavilion Master thinks too highly of me. I am just a prince with no support."

“No, you are not.” Chen Fanfan stood up excitedly. “Your talent and ambition do not allow you to belittle yourself like this.”

"So what? That's just the way it is." Qu Xuan said calmly.

Qu Xuan did not want to reveal too much about herself before she understood the other party's intentions.

Lu Zhao looked at Chen Fanfan at the head of the table, narrowed his eyes, and said, "He doesn't even show his face if he wants to make friends. It seems he's not sincere. Let's go."

Chen Fanfan, who had originally wanted to make another toast, immediately extended Er Kang's hand, "Since we're already here, let's make friends, it won't kill us."

Lu Zhao raised an eyebrow and exchanged a smile with Qu Xuan, then casually replied, "That depends on the sincerity of the Pavilion Master."

"I have a brilliant plan to bring Qu Xuan down," Chen Fanfan said, throwing out the bait in a moment of inspiration.

"The Crown Prince is suspicious by nature, arrogant, and lustful. Dealing with him is just a matter of using the same few methods." Qu Xuan was not buying it.

"My secret chamber can also be used by you." Chen Fanfan reluctantly parted with it.

The Dark Pavilion's influence extends throughout the entire Crimson Sky Kingdom, and even extends to enemy countries.

"make a deal."

Before Chen Fanfan could change her mind, Qu Xuan made the final decision, catching Chen Fanfan off guard.

"Since Mr. Murong has agreed, he cannot go back on his word."

"Who says I can't go back on my word? I..." After realizing that she had just been exposed, Chen Fanfan wanted to slap herself.

"Sir, why aren't you taking off your mask?" Lu Zhao raised an eyebrow, staring at Chen Fanfan until she angrily snatched the mask away, revealing that familiar face.

Lu Zhao patted Qu Xuan on the shoulder with a smile, praising him without reservation, "A cunning old fox."

"You flatter me, you flatter me, Brother Lu, we're in the same boat," Qu Xuan replied with a smile.

Watching the two people flattering each other, Chen Fanfan felt that her advanced socialist education had been insulted. "Can't you just ignore martial ethics!"

Qu Xuan disagreed, saying, "This is called 'all's fair in war'."

Chen Fanfan gave up, saying, "I'm not pretending anymore. I'm coming clean. I am the head of the Dark Pavilion, known as Chen Fanfan, the all-knowing expert in the martial arts world."

Upon hearing the name, Lu Zhao asked earnestly, "Why did you choose such a...common name, sir?"

Qu Xuan stroked his chin. "Perhaps the gentleman wants to better showcase his uniqueness."

Lu Zhao thought it made sense and nodded in agreement, "You scholars are really hard to fathom."

Chen Fanfan really didn't want to discuss with these two cunning villains why his father gave his son such an unusual name, so he changed the subject directly, "Since you want to bring down Qu Xuan, tell me your plan!"

Qu Xuan perked up, "Qu Xuan has been going back to Baihualou to hunt for women lately, so we can start from there."

"Isn't it just a honey trap? It's so unoriginal," Chen Fanfan complained disdainfully.

"Does the gentleman have any other effective remedies?" Lu Zhao retorted.

"I didn't say it's impossible. It's just that within the territory of Chixiao Kingdom, all the girls who are even slightly good-looking have entered the Crown Prince's residence. Where are we going to find a girl who is both beautiful and courageous?" Chen Fanfan pouted and retorted spinelessly.

Qu Xuan suddenly thought of someone, but still had some concerns, "It's not that there isn't someone, it's this person, they're engaged."

"It's great that they're engaged! Doesn't that make it even more exciting? A king taking another man's wife, just thinking about it is thrilling. That beast Qu Xuan will definitely love it," Chen Fanfan agreed.

Lu Zhao found it hard to accept, "Do you scholars all like playing with these kinds of flowers?"

“It’s not everyone! Tell me, can you help your brother out?” Qu Xuan patted Lu Zhao, his face full of sincerity.

It was rare to see Qu Xuan so serious, and Lu Zhao was also stirred by the atmosphere. Since ancient times, a good man should sacrifice himself for his country and never waver until death.

"What a joke! Since I consider you a brother, I'm already prepared to go through fire and water for you, so naturally I'll do my best to help you."

Qu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, "Alright then, I'll borrow your Xiaoxiao for a while."
