To the First Emperor of Qin: The state has decreed this!

Chapter 123 The Red-Clad Pavilion Master!

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Wei Shan kowtowed repeatedly, crying out in terror,

"Fairy, spare my life!"

"Please don't hurt us!"

The two were in a panic, talking incoherently, as if they had seen a vengeful ghost coming to claim their lives when they saw Fairy Pei.

This reaction completely stunned Fairy Pei!

She looked at the two of them, their expressions filled with fear and dread, and then looked down at herself.

The self-doubt in my heart was magnified infinitely at this moment, and finally turned into overwhelming grievance and anger!

OK!

Even scoundrels like Wei Shan and Han Kou were scared like this by me!

Am I... am I really that ugly?

Fairy Pei's eyes reddened with anger, and she stomped her foot.

She no longer cared about maintaining the proper demeanor of a well-bred lady and turned to run back to her room.

The door slammed shut with a "bang," looking utterly aggrieved!

……

Zhang Fan followed the servant through a quiet corridor.

Unlike the hustle and bustle downstairs, the road on the top floor appears exceptionally elegant and serene.

The floor underfoot is covered with pear wood flooring, making no sound when you step on it.

Every few steps, a maid stood with her hands at her sides. When they saw Zhang Fan, they simply bowed slightly, showing neither flattery nor curiosity.

finally.

The servant stopped in front of a large door, respectfully pushed it open, and stepped aside.

"Immortal Master, the Lord of the Pavilion is waiting for you inside."

As Zhang Fan stepped inside, a scent mingled with the aroma of wine and the fragrance of a young woman wafted towards him.

The pavilions here feature soaring eaves and luxurious rooms, yet they possess an elegant and refined charm.

In the center of the field of vision, a woman in red was reclining lazily on a large, soft couch.

Hearing footsteps, she slowly raised her captivating phoenix eyes.

Her eyes sparkled with natural charm, her lips were a touch of crimson, and her skin was as smooth as jade.

"sit."

She parted her lips slightly, extended her slender hand, and poured Zhang Fan a full glass of wine.

"The presence of the celestial master has brought great honor to my humble place."

She chuckled softly, her voice melodious.

"This cup of wine is my apology to the Immortal Master!"

"I apologize for disturbing you because of those two ignorant fools."

Zhang Fan remained expressionless.

He could sense that this woman's seductive skills were innate, ingrained in her very bones!

Any man would probably fall for her with just one glance!

Unfortunately, it was useless to him!

After all, I directed it last night!

Zhang Fan didn't respond; he simply picked up his wine glass, smelled it, and put it back.

"You're too kind, OP!"

His voice was flat.

"I've already punished the person!"

"Speak, what is it you wanted to see me about?"

Seeing that Zhang Fan was completely unmoved by him!

A fleeting look of surprise flashed in the red-clad woman's phoenix eyes!

She dropped her deliberate flirtatious manner, sat up straight, and smiled more broadly.

"The immortal master is indeed a highly skilled person!"

She gave a compliment and got straight to the point!

"Since you're so straightforward, I won't beat around the bush either!"

"I want to discuss a business deal with the Immortal Master!"

"Business?"

Zhang Fan raised an eyebrow, a hint of amusement in his voice.

"What business opportunities do I have that I can discuss with you, OP?"

"Yes, of course!"

A slight smile played on the lips of the woman in red. "A business deal involving a coal mine!"

boom!

Zhang Fan's pupils suddenly contracted!

She knew it all along!

She not only knew her own identity, but also knew exactly why she came to the Party!

This woman is no ordinary person!

His mind raced with thoughts, but his face remained calm and composed.

The woman in red was pleased with his reaction and continued:

"The Immortal Master is acting on His Majesty's orders to open a coal mine!"

"Although it was kept secret, it couldn't be hidden from those who were interested!"

"The Immortal Master is currently short of money, and even more so, he lacks sales channels, and I happen to be able to provide all of that!"

She leaned forward, her eyes fixed on Zhang Fan!

"I'll buy large quantities of the coal mined by the immortal master! Your price will satisfy you!"

"What does the Immortal Master think of this deal?"

Zhang Fan's brows furrowed instantly!

Why?

Why would a brothel owner need so much coal?

Her purpose is definitely not simple!

Zhang Fan's brows furrowed instantly! He stared at the woman in red and spoke coldly:

"What do you need so much coal for?"

The woman in red giggled, her eyes full of allure.

"Immortal Master, you jest. This humble woman merely finds the coal business profitable and wishes to get involved."

fake!

Zhang Fan sneered inwardly.

A brothel owner with such a big appetite?

Nobody believes you have no one behind you!

But he didn't ask any more questions.

No need!

Another thought instantly overwhelmed everything!

This is exactly what he needs right now!

money!

That stubborn old man, Wu Liang, the Prefect of Grain Supply, who knows when he'll recover!

I'll play my own version then!

It will be troublesome if the outstanding payment is not made then!

Without money, everything is just empty talk!

As for her purpose...

Hmph, as long as I am strong enough, any conspiracy or trickery is nothing but a pile of chickens and dogs!

Let's use her to revitalize the project first!

With that thought in mind, Zhang Fan no longer hesitated!

He suddenly picked up the glass of wine, faced the woman in red, and drank it all in one gulp!

"Excellent wine!"

He put down his wine glass, looked at the woman in red, and a cold smile appeared on his lips.

"make a deal!"

Zhang Fan's figure disappeared through the doorway.

Inside the attic.

The woman in red held a wine glass, her eyes deep and thoughtful.

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps approached.

"elder sister!"

A tearful, aggrieved voice rang out.

Then, Fairy Pei came running in, lifting her skirt, her eyes red and her face covered in tears!

The sharpness on the woman in red's face vanished instantly, replaced by endless doting.

She quickly got up and pulled her younger sister into her arms.

"My dear sister, what's wrong?"

"Who bullied you? Tell your sister!"

Fairy Pei buried her face in her sister's arms, sobbing as she asked:

"Sister...am I...have I become ugly?"

"Nonsense!"

The woman in red was both angry and amused. She cupped her sister's face, examined it carefully, and then rubbed her nose.

"Our Yue Li is the most beautiful woman in the world, how could she become ugly?"

"Tell me quickly, what happened?"

Fairy Pei pouted and recounted everything that had just happened.

From Zhang Fan standing up for her, to her thinking she was ugly and scaring Zhang Fan away, to Wei Shan and Han Kou's terrified reactions.

"...They looked at me like I was a ghost, they were so scared they couldn't even speak!"

Mi Yue Li became increasingly angry as she spoke.

"Sister, do you think I really look scary?"

After hearing her sister's account, even the resourceful woman in red froze instantly, unsure of what to say.

She finally understood!

So that's how it is!

She patted her sister's back, both amused and exasperated, and comforted her:

"Silly girl, you haven't gotten uglier!"

"Those two weren't afraid to look at you, they weren't scared away!"

"He even dares to steal my woman! Young Master Zhang, you really know how to do it..."

Mi Yue Li was completely stunned after hearing this.

The next second, her pretty face turned bright red, hotter than a red-hot iron!
