Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

”Ruyang King, oh Ruyang King, I really didn’t expect you to end up like this today.”

Fang Guozhen said, then noticed Chen Jie looking as if he wanted to speak but held back, ”What’s up, Jiusi, do you have something to say?”

Jie Wenyan spoke up, ”Third Brother, if I say it, you can’t make fun of me.”

Jie Wenyan looked at him, ”Why would I make fun of you? Just say it, whatever you want to say, just say it.”

After hearing this, Jiedao said, ”Well, the reason I came to the Great Capital this time is actually to rescue the Ruyang King.”

”Hmm?”

Upon hearing this, Fang Guozhen was utterly baffled.

”You, you’re rescuing the Ruyang King? Why, why?”

Fang Guozhen looked at Chen Jie in confusion, and Chen Jie then shook his head with a smile, ”Well, Third Brother, I’m not sure if you know that the Ruyang King has a daughter.”

”I know, I know, Princess Xiangning, right? I know, she’s quite an extraordinary woman, almost became the Empress, and suddenly eloped—my goodness, what a spirit, truly a young hero, a woman as capable as any man.”

”To be honest with you, if I had the chance, I would definitely want to meet such an extraordinary woman.”

”Hey, Third Brother, what’s so special about a Mulan woman?” Chen Jie said.

”Fourth Brother, that’s not right of you. Even though the Mulan people are annoying and oppress us Han people, you can’t deny their excellence, especially the women. War is a man’s business, nothing to do with women. Between you and me, if I were thirty years younger, I’d pursue her. Such a fine woman is too good for a Mulan Dog!”

Fang Guozhen suddenly had a spark in his eyes, looking at Chen Jie, ”Hey, Fourth Brother, you’re at just the right age. Why don’t you go and win over this Commandery Princess? Such a fine woman shouldn’t fall into the hands of other scoundrels!”

Chen Jie was taken aback by this, feeling a bit embarrassed, not knowing how to respond.

At that moment, Zhang Dingbian couldn’t help but speak up, ”Senior Fang, didn’t you forget that Hero Chen mentioned he came to rescue the Ruyang King?”

”Oh, right, right, Fourth Brother, so that’s what you’re after. Once you’ve rescued the Ruyang King, he’ll be grateful to you, and then he can marry his daughter to you, and you get the beauty’s favor, hahaha, a brilliant plan, brilliant!”

Chen Jie laughed, ”Brother, she’s willing to give up being an Empress. If it wasn’t someone she loved, do you think she would agree to marry him?”

Fang Guozhen was taken aback by this, ”Then why are you rescuing the Ruyang King?”

Zhang Dingbian couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Fang Guozhen turned to him, ”What are you laughing at?”

Zhang Dingbian replied, ”Forgive me, Senior Fang, I just couldn’t hold it in. To be honest with you, Senior Fang, the Chen Jiusi in front of you, Hero Chen, is the very man for whom the Commandery Princess gave up her position as Empress to elope with.”

”Oh! Wow, Fourth Brother, Fourth Brother, you’re amazing!”

Upon hearing this, Fang Guozhen was overjoyed. His own Fourth Brother had done something so impressive, and he felt proud of it too, having stolen the Emperor’s wife and figuratively putting a green hat on the Emperor’s head. Just the thought of it was thrilling.

At this moment, Fang Guozhen looked at Chen Jiusi with a smile, ”Fourth Brother, Fourth Brother, you’re something else. I thought it was some dashing young lad who had the skills to win over the Commandery Princess, didn’t expect it was my Fourth Brother with such talent, impressive, impressive.”

After saying this, Fang Guozhen continued, ”Hey, since you’re here to rescue the Ruyang King, why don’t I see the Commandery Princess? Quickly, introduce me to her.”

”Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law?”

Fang Guozhen called out, and Chen Jie responded with a wry smile, ”Third Brother, Yaya’s not here. When there’s time, I’ll introduce her to you, but right now we have more important matters to discuss. Where’s Big Brother? We need to have a face-to-face talk!”
