Lu Jinghe closed the courtyard gate and turned around to see Li Chunfeng holding his glass talisman lamp and looking at it intently.

My head hurts. How can there be such a person? They're so informal!

He's treating this like his own home! He used to, but now he's made a terrible mistake and lost this place to himself!

"Hey, what's wrong with you, you lousy chess player?"

A terrible chess player? Me?

Gao Yang and Li Chunfeng looked at Lu Jinghe at the same time, and pointed to themselves almost simultaneously.

Soon, Gao Yang realized that Lu Jinghe wasn't talking about him, but about Li Chunfeng. He immediately covered his mouth with his hand, which was pointing at him, and smiled broadly.

"You terrible chess player, that's so true."

Who in their family can afford to buy a house by playing chess? What else could they be but a terrible chess player?

"You're calling me a terrible chess player?" Li Chunfeng couldn't believe it. He had lived for decades and never imagined that anyone would call him a terrible chess player.

He has absolutely no connection to being a terrible chess player!

Li Chunfeng glared angrily at Lu Jinghe, thinking how ridiculous it was that he had brought a roast chicken from the imperial kitchen!

He treated Lu Jinghe like a good brother!

He actually called himself a terrible chess player!

Lu Jinghe completely ignored Li Chunfeng. Did he say anything?

I didn't hear it; it went in one ear and out the other. What Li Chunfeng said wasn't important.

This "Changle" is so beautiful, she perfectly matches my aesthetic. I've hit the jackpot! I won a princess with just one game of chess, and she's so stunningly beautiful.

"Hey, what are you looking at?!" Li Chunfeng stomped his feet in anger, but Lu Jinghe completely ignored him, and he shouted loudly.

Lu Jinghe heard Li Chunfeng's words this time, for no other reason than that the voice was too loud and deafening. This person probably had the Lion's Roar skill.

"Is Her Highness beautiful...?" Li Chunfeng praised the face, and said indignantly.

"Is she beautiful?" Lu Jinghe muttered, then said, "Of course she is beautiful. Of all the women I've ever seen, Your Highness is the most beautiful."

Lu Jinghe has seen countless beauties in his past and present lives, both naturally beautiful and artificially enhanced, real and fake.

But compared to Gao Yang, they were all inferior without exception. Lu Jinghe subconsciously said, "Especially that smile just now, how should I put it..."

"A single glance back and a smile could launch a thousand ships, leaving all the beauties of the imperial harem pale in comparison."

The small courtyard became very quiet the moment Lu Jinghe finished speaking.

Li Chunfeng stopped arguing, and Gao Yang stopped laughing.

Qingwu looked up happily at her prince. Gaoyang's cheeks were as red as a sunset, a light red that was very beautiful.

"Qingwu, let's make some tea and let them chat."

Once Gao Yang regained her senses, she quickly pulled Qing Wu and ran towards the house, muttering to herself as they ran, "A smile that could launch a thousand ships..."

"Tsk tsk tsk..." Li Chunfeng clicked his tongue as he watched Gao Yang run back into the house with a flushed face.

Who would have thought this kid has the talent for writing poetry? What woman could resist such praise?

No!

Absolutely not in this era.

"I never expected that Young Master Lu would be so good at winning a woman's heart."

"What's with that resentful tone of yours?" Lu Jinghe couldn't shake the feeling that Li Chunfeng's words were off.

She has the air of a lonely, resentful woman confined to her chambers.

Did Li Chunfeng marry in history? I can't remember, probably not... This guy couldn't have been gay!

The more Lu Jinghe thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was correct.

Whose kind-hearted person lost their house playing chess and then had a princess sent over to give it to them for free!

Isn't this blatant pandering?

"I have no homosexual tendencies!" Lu Jinghe quickly said, afraid that Li Chunfeng would have designs on him.

As the saying goes, it's not the thief you should fear, but the one who has his eye on you.

Logically speaking, Li Chunfeng couldn't beat him. He could use a single tactic to drive Li Chunfeng from the west of the city to the east and back again.

But what if Li Chunfeng resorts to underhanded tactics? What if?

What if they play dirty tricks?

He'd been a virgin his whole life, and finally, after transmigrating, he found himself with such a beautiful fiancée. Now, he's being told he might lose his virginity. Believe it or not, he'll use his Five Thunderbolts to cleanse the entire city of Chang'an!

"Young master, you misunderstand." Li Chunfeng remained silent, then explained, "I just felt that tone better expressed my emotions."

"However, if you wish to experience it, you can wait a few years and then go to the Crown Prince when the time comes."

"With your mastery of Feng Hou Qi Men techniques, I'm sure you know exactly what the Crown Prince will become in the future."

"Besides, given your appearance, the Crown Prince at that time would definitely have his eye on you."

Lu Jinghe: "..."

Even if Li Chengqian had homosexual tendencies, he shouldn't be interested in his brother-in-law...

Probably not.

"Ahem." Lu Jinghe coughed twice and said, "I will handle the Crown Prince's problem."

Since I've already messed up my original destiny, it doesn't matter if I mess it up a little more.

He can flap his butterfly wings however he wants.

First, we need to fix Li Chengqian's homosexual tendencies, otherwise it would be bad if Li Chengqian had his eye on us.

"Young Master is planning to take on an enormous karmic burden. Impressive." Li Chunfeng gave Lu Jinghe a thumbs up.

"I'm even going to marry this princess, what's there to be afraid of?" Lu Jinghe sneered.

So what if he changes? If he's so capable, let the heavens strike me dead with lightning. If not, then don't spout any nonsense about destiny, fate, or karma.

"That's true. I'm not that afraid, so you, young master, who spends your days telling fortunes and playing chess, are even less afraid."

If there truly is such a thing as the will of Heaven, interfering with the original course of fate, then Li Chunfeng would have already been struck dead when he arranged for Gao Yang to meet Lu Jinghe.

"That's right, what's there to be afraid of?" Lu Jinghe put his arm around Li Chunfeng's shoulder and walked towards the house.

"I'll give you one of these lamps later. Don't worry about it now, let's go eat."

Lu Jinghe actually had a pretty good impression of Li Chunfeng.

First, they gave him a house, and then they arranged a marriage for him with "Princess Chang Le," so he had to be treated well.

"Hey, what's with calling me a terrible chess player? Let's play a game fair and square."

"Haha, it's getting late. I'll go cook. You come inside and chat with Chang Le." When Lu Jinghe heard that Li Chunfeng wanted to play chess with him and wouldn't let him do fortune-telling, he quickly ran off to cook.

Li Chunfeng was taken aback, then chuckled to himself. He was right; Lu Jinghe didn't like using divination to predict people's fortunes.

He didn't know that the person in the room was Princess Gaoyang; he mistook her for Princess Changle.

That's interesting. It would be even more interesting if something unexpected happened.

Lu Jinghe, holding Gao Yang's hand, came before Li Shimin and said, "This junior, Lu Jinghe, requests to marry Princess Changle."

The thought of this scene is beautiful.

Li Chunfeng walked into the house with a smile on his face. He was surprised when he entered the house, as the layout of the house had completely changed.

Then they saw Gao Yang, his face flushed, frantically fiddling with the teapot, while Qing Wu stood aside grinning foolishly.

"Your Highness, I would like to offer my congratulations in advance."

"Uh..." Gao Yang was dumbfounded. Was the Grand Historian out of his mind? What was there to congratulate him about?
