Starting with choosing a wife, creating the most powerful Xia

The Poet Immortal?

Wang Ze frowned.

Although he was a bit arrogant, that confidence came from the Wang family. In ordinary times, he was still a person with some sense of propriety.

Although Cheng Han's words seemed inexplicable, they were not difficult for him to understand.

Heavenly being?

The only person who can be addressed like that here is Chu Xuan, isn't he?

Wang Ze had investigated and found that Chu Xuan's fiefdom was in Lucheng. He became famous after participating in the literary gathering, which was also due to the use of Lucheng's quota, which allowed him to win the title of "Poet Immortal".

But now it seems I overlooked one thing.

I initially thought that Chu Xuan only had some cooperation with Cheng Han, but now it seems that this perfume is Chu Xuan's creation.

As expected, the moment the words fell, a tall figure in white slowly walked to Cheng Han's side and nodded slightly to Wang Ze and the others below.

"Lord Wang, I've long admired you."

Wang Ze looked at the man and his heart skipped a beat.

As expected, it was Chu Xuan.

He and Cheng Han were in a small room together; their close relationship speaks for itself.

"So it is the Poet Immortal of the Chu family. I was blind to have missed you."

Wang Ze chuckled, a hint of gloom in his eyes.

Chu Xuan was nothing special in the past, but the trouble is that his current status as a poet has been personally certified by the Xia Emperor.

Currently, they are still under Emperor Xia's attention, so it would be best to avoid direct conflict with him.

The moment Chu Xuan appeared, many exclamations came from below.

Kong Fan, the second son of the Kong family in Lushan, narrowed his eyes slightly: "That's Chu Xuan? He does indeed look like a handsome young man."

A young man of similar age to Chu Xuan behind him sneered.

“He’s just an unpopular collateral relative, a country bumpkin, not worthy of such praise from my second uncle.”

"That's the Poet Immortal? He truly exudes an ethereal aura!"

"I never expected that even this celestial being would come. Today is going to be quite a spectacle."

People outside the Kong family exclaimed in surprise. Even the women brought by the Wang family blushed slightly when they saw Chu Xuan's handsome face, which seemed otherworldly.

Chu Xuan looked at Wang Ze, his eyes filled with a deep gloom.

He hadn't originally planned to put himself in the spotlight, but Wang Ze's aggressive behavior today meant that if he didn't step in, Cheng Han might lose this business deal.

All the losses I've caused myself, I'll put on your head, Wang Ze.

Chu Xuan thought this to himself, but on his face he still had a faint smile on his face and nodded slightly to Wang Ze.

"Lord Wang is indeed vigorous for his age, which I admire. However, Lord Wang, this perfume was found by Lord Cheng in my fiefdom. I have already asked someone to deliver it to His Majesty and the ladies. You need not worry about these matters."

Wang Ze's face darkened.

Now that Chu Xuan has appeared, it is difficult for him to directly confront him, not to mention that Chu Xuan was prepared in advance, and now even the method of intercepting tribute under the guise of imperial tribute has been broken.

This puts them in a dilemma.

Indeed, Chu Xuan had already thought of this. Perfume is something that nobles and common ladies like, and naturally, the concubines in the harem also like it.

Since he himself did not yet have the power to overturn the table, he naturally could not ignore the Xia Emperor's side. Therefore, after the product was produced, he specially ordered Cheng Han to send someone to the capital to be used as imperial items.

It was all to silence the gossip of the public today.

Chu Xuan looked at Wang Ze and smiled, "Lord Wang, do you have any other questions? You are too humble. Just ask, and I will answer all your questions."

"In the past, when I heard of the poet's name, I always thought it was an exaggeration. Now that I have seen it, I realize that I was blind. Since that is the case, I naturally have no more questions."

Wang Ze shook his head. He had nothing more to say about the situation. If he continued to argue, he would only lose face.

"Young Master Chu is exceptionally talented and handsome. Our Wang family has always admired him. If there is an opportunity, we would like to invite Young Master Chu to visit our humble abode and show those ignorant juniors in our family what it means to be outmatched and to have a world beyond our reach."

"Young Master is now in charge of a region. Although you are exceptionally talented, you are inevitably alone. My Wang family does have some manpower. If you need anything, just ask."

"Ah……"

This statement softened his tone. Everyone knew that Wang Ze wanted to associate with Chu Xuan, and Chu Xuan smiled and shook his head.

This old bastard, he was just thinking about taking away my business, and now he's trying to build a good relationship with me?

Chu Xuan could easily see through his intentions. As expected of someone from a prominent family, his face and promises were as worthless as farts.

It didn't matter; Wang Ze didn't want to break ties with him here, and neither did he.

Lucheng is ultimately within the territory of Wuming Mountain, his domain.

The Wang family members came easily, but leaving won't be so easy.

A plan had already formed in Chu Xuan's mind.

Just then, a cold laugh suddenly came from the corner.

"What audacity of the Wang family of Qingzhou! They dare to plot against even members of my Chu family!"

The voice sounded somewhat weak and young.

The moment the words fell, the surroundings fell into complete silence, as if a cold wind was blowing through the courtyard.

Everyone stared wide-eyed in the direction the sound came from.

Who has the audacity to be so presumptuous in front of the Wang family?

Could it be that because Wang Ze spoke so kindly to Chu Xuan just now, they really think the Wang family are a bunch of easy-going people?

Wait, what did that person just say? Someone from the Chu family?

Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Chu Xuan slowly turned his head to look in the direction from which the sound came.

He hadn't noticed before and didn't know when the people there had come in.

But when he saw the face of the person who spoke, his eyebrows suddenly twitched.

The situation today is truly becoming more and more chaotic.

Suddenly, a somewhat bloated figure stood up from his seat and stared directly at Wang Ze without any attempt to avoid looking away.

A disdainful smile played on his lips.

"Wang Liufangtou, do you recognize me?"

"Lian'er, you mustn't be so rude!"

As soon as he finished speaking, another person stood up next to the young man, which immediately drew many gasps of surprise.

The woman's eyebrows were like distant mountains, and her oval face was captivating with every smile and frown, as if it were a natural painting. Although she had shown signs of aging, it only added to her mature demeanor, and her aura became even more aloof.

Like a ripe and tempting pink peach, it is exquisitely alluring, yet it blends seamlessly with the cool and aloof demeanor, creating an enchanting sense of mystery.

Chu Xuan looked at the two of them, and a slow smile appeared on his lips.

The eldest grandson of the Chu family, Chu Lian, and the peerless talent who has always been buried in the sea of ​​books, Chu Xiangge's biological daughter, Chu Wanqing.

Interesting, they're really going to muddy the waters completely.

Chu Xuan thought to himself, "The muddier the water, the easier it is to cast the net."
