Daqing: Immortality begins with taking Fan Xian as your disciple!

She requested permission to travel south and re-enter the Qing Kingdom, where she used her identity as a courtesan to become a spy.

To gather intelligence for the Northern Qi in the capital.

Of course, this includes the cause of death of Si Lili's 15th grandfather.

The version that Su Yu knew was not the version circulating in Kyoto.

The versions that are circulating do not include Ye Qingmei, nor does it include Barrett.

It is said that the power struggle between the previous two emperors was quite dramatic and absurd.

First of all, the emperor before him had no children.

Thus, after that emperor died young due to excessive sexual activity.

The two most powerful princes became the most likely successors.

What followed was an incredibly absurd and melodramatic turn of events.

One of these two princes was assassinated by an assassin sent by the Northern Wei and died.

The other one is Si Lili's grandfather.

However, he was assassinated by an assassin sent earlier by the prince who had already been assassinated...

It's that complicated, and that absurd.

After that, there was that inconspicuous dragon throne that could easily cause bleeding when one sat on it.

And just like that, it landed right under the buttocks of Prince Cheng, who was cautious and self-disciplined throughout his life.

Prince Cheng, on the other hand, lived a peaceful and stable life as a peaceful emperor for several years.

When the time came, he passed away.

The throne naturally passed to His Majesty the current emperor.

However, this applies to both the version Su Yu knew and the version that was circulating.

Those who killed Si Lili's grandfather are all dead.

This poor, weak woman naturally had no grudge to avenge.

However, he endured years of fleeing and displacement.

For Si Lili now, staying alive is the most important thing.

That's why she was able to openly share her past through rumors.

This was solely to help her gain a foothold in Kyoto.

This facilitates intelligence gathering and enables her to carry out her covert mission.

Si Lili smiled faintly and then asked.

"Young Master Su's literary talent is exceptional, a rarity in this era."

"Today I've come to this place of entertainment."

"Wouldn't that disgrace your talent and tarnish your good reputation?"

One can know his character by reading his poems and essays.

Si Lili had a very good impression of the young man in front of her.

Naturally, I'm willing to say a few more words.

But the most important reason was that she recognized who it was.

She caught a glimpse of the young scholar riding his horse down Chang'an Street that day, from afar.

Even through the screen, his appearance and demeanor were instantly recognizable.

Moreover, to be able to write such poems and prose at such a young age, and to be surnamed Su...

There is no one else like him in the entire capital of Kyoto, or even in the entire Daqing.

Su Yu, the youngest divine doctor, the youngest top scholar, and the youngest sword god.

There's nothing that this young master Su can't do, only things that others can't imagine.

It's hard for Si Lili not to know such an amazing person.

So, she was naturally very curious as well.

Who exactly is this young prodigy?

How did he end up in this Drunken Immortal Abode?

I pick up my pen to write poems and essays, offering them to myself, a lowly person, for my appreciation.

Si Lili did not believe that someone like Su Yu would be like those filthy men.

Regardless of the reason, Su Yu came to this place.

Ultimately, it tarnished his reputation as a talented scholar and inevitably drew criticism.

Given his fame and status, there must be many eyes watching him.

Su Yu shook her head and smiled without saying a word.

He had just been feeling sorry for the woman's background.

The girl, however, was already considering his good reputation.

What is there to care about in a worldly reputation?

If one visits a brothel, one's good reputation will become a stain.

That reputation is far too fragile.

Moreover, Su Yu has always believed that...

The so-called gentleman believes that food and sex are human nature.

A young man who isn't romantic is a wasted youth.

Su Yu simply smiled slightly but remained silent.

Si Lili frowned, her beautiful eyes darting around.

He wondered if he had said something wrong.

After a while, Su Yu slowly spoke.

Instead of answering Si Lili's question, he sighed.

"You are such a beautiful woman, why did you become a thief?"

Perhaps it is human nature to feel pity and tenderness for women.

In short, I met the frail and helpless Si Lili.

Su Yu couldn't help but say this.

Upon hearing this, Si Lili was startled.

She raised her head slightly, looking at the boy in front of her with some disbelief.

Panic was already evident in his dark eyes.

She could tell that Young Master Su's words were full of pity.

However, compared to being moved.

Si Lili was filled with shock and fear.

Did Su Yu already know that he was a spy for Northern Qi?

Si Lili quickly thought it through.

I had long heard that Su Yu had a close relationship with the people in the Censorate.

If he finds out now, then the Overwatch Council will probably find out too.

That place is an absolutely terrifying place.

That King of the Night was a source of psychological trauma for countless people in Northern Qi.

The more Si Lili thought about it, the more she couldn't help but shiver.

She didn't want to be discovered and taken to that place.

Just a moment later, Si Lili took a few deep breaths.

After calming down, I began to think things through rationally.

Su Yu was merely a Vice Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices.

His position is unrelated to the Auditorium.

The duties of the Vice Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices have absolutely nothing to do with the investigations of assassins and spies.

There was no conflict of interest between Su Yu and himself.

Why would he investigate himself?

If they hadn't investigated, how would they have known about their secret identity?

Moreover, if Su Yu really knew about his identity as a spy...

So at this moment, it's not appropriate to be laughing and talking to yourself.

It shouldn't be Su Yu asking this question.

Those who come here should be government officials.

Considering all these factors, Si Lili tried her best to calm herself down.

With a faint smile on his face, he asked curiously.

"Young Master Su, why do you ask this?"

"Lili doesn't quite understand."

Although I had a bad feeling about it.

But I still hold onto a sliver of hope.
