Are you crazy? Who asked you to hunt for treasures in the emperor's harem?

"I'll give it a try...but don't hold your hopes too high..."

Yao Yue spread her hands. "According to Grape, Zhang San has his own things to do and is quite busy. Moreover, Zhang San does not look up to the so-called kings, princes, generals and ministers at all... He treats people based on their actions..."

"More importantly..."

At this point, Yao Yue paused, "I sensed a very strong fluctuation of profound energy from Zhang San... Although his skills should be very special and I can't know his exact strength level, I infer that Zhang San's strength is no less than the ninth level of the Marquis Rank, and may even be the King Rank!"

"Wha...what?"

Hearing this, Yu Youwei's expression suddenly changed drastically, "A ninth-grade Marquis who is less than twenty years old, or even a king-level Xuan cultivator?"

"Correct!"

Yao Yue nodded solemnly, "This is why I just said not to hold too high hopes... A ninth-rank Marquis who is less than 20 years old, or even a king-rank... Even for the direct disciples of those old guys in the "Three Sects", I'm afraid there may not be many except for forcing them to grow..."

..........

the other side,

The meandering water cup,

After a discussion between Ye Fan and Zhong Ming, the bone flute made by Li Yin was not destroyed. Instead, he wanted to take it back to Yin Valley to report the existence of the Demon Sound Sect to the Valley Master. Otherwise, it would be difficult to convince others with just words without any evidence. Naturally, Liu Mengying had no objection.

....

The night falls,

The winding stream flows, the lights are on, the music is lingering,

"Um... Miss Xin, have we known each other before?"

Qin Menghan looked at Axin in some confusion. She found that Axin was staring at her in a trance several times.

"Uh...no...you guys are busy, I'll go out first!"

A Xin was slightly stunned, turned around and walked out of the room, leaving behind a confused Qin Menghan, as well as Grape and Yin Yiren.

"That... Ye Fan..."

After Ah Xin walked out of the room, she came to the deck of Qushui Liushang. She walked up to Ye Fan, who was feeding fish with Liu Mengying, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Sister Xin, what's wrong?"

Liu Mengying turned around and looked at Axin with confusion, and Ye Fan also gave her a questioning look.

"Ye Fan, Meng Ying, how much money do you have left... It would be best if you had some Mystical Energy Stones or something... I... I want to redeem Meng Han!"

As he spoke, Axin turned his head and "looked" at the room where Qin Menghan was.

"Redemption?"

Ye Fan frowned slightly.

"Ok!"

Ah Xin nodded, "According to my observation, Meng Han should be the daughter of my father's general Tan Liang, especially the red mole behind her ear...but we were still young at the time...and I have changed a lot over the years, so she didn't recognize me...I asked around and found out that Meng Han was captured by the Qinhuai City Jiaofang Division more than 20 years ago...the time also fits..."

"Except for Meng Han, everyone else was beheaded... the reason was also treason. I guess it was probably because of my father's involvement... I want to help her..."

Ah Xin quickly explained to Ye Fan.

"Is that so... But I don't quite understand this... I'd better ask Mr. Zhong~"

.........

Soon, Ye Fan and the other two arrived at Zhong Ming's room.

"If this is a normal member of the Jiaofangsi, I can find someone from the Ministry of Justice...it won't be a problem..."

After hearing the purpose of Ye Fan and the other two's visit, Zhong Ming frowned slightly, "But Qin Menghan is special... First of all, she is the daughter of a traitor, and her identity is sensitive. What's more troublesome is that Miss Qin is favored by the eldest prince... The reason why Qin Menghan came to Qinhuai City from the Jiaofangsi in Zhongzhou City is also because of the eldest prince's operation... The eldest prince has a close relationship with Prince Yuanzheng... There are rumors that if Qin Menghan was not the daughter of a traitor, she would have been the imperial concubine long ago... Without the eldest prince's nod, I'm afraid no one would dare to issue a pardon document for Miss Qin, and there would be no talk of redeeming her!"

"Then can Meng Han just slip away from the Jiaofang Division?"

Liu Mengying added.

"Well... in that case, Miss Qin will become a fugitive..."

Zhong Ming looked somewhat helpless.

"That guy Ming Bowen... He kidnapped me before and threatened me with bean sprouts..."

When Ming Bowen was mentioned, Ye Fan couldn't help but feel angry.

"Ye Fan, I will try my best, but the result may not be guaranteed!"

At this time, Zhong Ming spoke again.

"Okay, thank you!"

…………

Early the next morning, Zhong Ming set off, while Ye Fan, Liu Mengying and A Xin rested and waited by the Qushui Liushang.

at noon,

Zhong Ming returned to Qushui Liushang and met the gazes of Ye Fan and the other two. He sighed slightly, "The other party didn't explicitly refuse, but didn't agree on the spot... I guess it's hopeless! Sorry!"

"It's okay, I don't blame you, it's because of that guy Ming Bowen!"

Ye Fan waved his hand towards Zhong Ming, "But speaking of which, does Meng Han know that guy Ming Bowen?"

“I don’t know him!”

Liu Mengying continued, "When I was chatting with Sister Grape and the others this morning, I asked Sister Menghan, and she didn't know the other person at all, and had never met him before!"

"This is also normal... Even if the eldest prince has met Miss Qin, he will never reveal his identity. After all, one is a person who has the potential to become the crown prince, and the other is the daughter of a traitor..."

Zhong Ming was not surprised at all.

...........

after lunch,

Ye Fan, Liu Mengying, and A Xin were walking on the street.

"Big brother, look, isn't that General Lei?"

Suddenly, Liu Mengying pointed to a teahouse in front and spoke.

"Oh my god, it's Lei Zhentian. Why is he here in Qinhuai City?"

Ye Fan was also surprised to see the old man with white hair and eyebrows sitting in the teahouse drinking tea.

"Let's go in and take a look~"

..........

"What a coincidence, Senior Lei!"

After Ye Fan came and sat down in front of Lei Zhentian, he greeted him and poured himself a cup of tea.

"Ye... Ye Fan?"

Looking at the very familiar young man across the table, Lei Zhentian couldn't help but be surprised, because he recognized Ye Fan's voice, but the face was not the Ye Fan he knew.

"Oh, I almost forgot!"

Ye Fan reached out and wiped his face, and his original appearance suddenly appeared.

"Ye Fan, it's really you! What a coincidence!"

Seeing this, Lei Zhentian immediately greeted him warmly.

...........

After a cup of tea,

"So, Senior Lei, you came here because of the news about the ancient secret realm!"

After chatting with Lei Zhentian, Ye Fan immediately understood.

"Yes!"

Lei Zhentian nodded and said, "Seven days later, Prince Yuanzheng will publicly announce the news of the ancient secret realm in Prince Yuanzheng's Palace. Because of this, many experts have come to Qinhuai City now!"

As he spoke, Lei Zhentian turned to look at Liu Mengying, "Time flies so fast... Liu girl, you've grown a lot taller!"

"Yeah! Grandpa Lei is still as energetic as ever!"

Liu Mengying said sincerely.

"By the way, Ye Fan, Meng Ying, you seem to be in a bad mood? Is there something bothering you?"

After a pause, Lei Zhentian spoke again.

"I recently encountered some......"

..........

After listening to Ye Fan's story, Lei Zhentian thought for a moment and said, "When it comes to Ming Bowen...it's a bit tricky...Ye Fan, is that girl named Qin Menghan important to you?"

"Well, it's quite important!"

Ye Fan glanced at A Xin, then nodded.

"Okay, I'll try..."
