Chapter 59 Writing Poems
In the afternoon, when Fan Xian and Teng Zijing used firearms for training, Fan Ruoruo watched the whole process, and with Fan Xian's cooperation, she even fired a shot or two.

At this moment, she was in awe of the pistol.

"It's powerful, but in the capital, don't use it unless you are in a crisis!" Lin Chen warned.

In this capital, there is still Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. When he walked around the city before, he detected the aura of the strong in many places.

And taking Ye Zhong as the standard, Lin Chen roughly estimated that there are at least ten ninth-rank masters in the capital, and there are as many as two or three ninth-rank masters!
Although these masters are not strong because of their skills, their realm and physical fitness are there. If Lin Chen shoots, the masters within a five-mile radius of the sound will be attracted.

Therefore, it is better not to use guns in Kyoto.

"Brother Zhou, don't worry, the capital is very safe, and I'm the son of the Fan family. I feel that I might not be able to use this gun in my whole life."

Lin Chen didn't answer, and asked, "Why did you come back so late?"

"I didn't dare to get too close to the city. I was afraid of being discovered, so I ran a long distance and practiced in a hidden valley. It took a little time to go back and forth."

"Then you still have a friend Teng Zijing?"

"He's home from get off work." After speaking, Fan Xian explained, "Brother Zhou, don't worry, I gave him a pistol, there shouldn't be any danger."

He remembered that when Lin Chen first met Teng Zijing, he inexplicably said "good luck", and now he asked again, he guessed that Teng Zijing might be related to Lin Chen's mission.

"Fan Xian!" At this moment, a majestic shout came from outside the courtyard.

Hearing this, Fan Xian immediately put away the gun, and at the same time whispered to Lin Chen: "My father is here, probably for you."

Fan Xian always felt that his father, Fan Jian, was not simple. He honored Lin Chen as a guest of honor in such a high-profile way today, and now that he came here, it might be to find out about Lin Chen's background.

"For me?" Just as he was about to ask something, Fan Jian had already entered the yard.

"My lord father." Fan Ruoruo and Fan Xian saluted at the same time.

Seeing this, Lin Chen followed suit and said, "Hello, Uncle."

Fan Jian nodded, which was a response, but he was not in a hurry to find Lin Chen, but talked to Fan Xian first.

"I heard that you left the city this afternoon, and you brought Ruoruo with you! You came back so late, what did you do?!"

"Go hunting. I've been hunting all afternoon, but I'm exhausted." After speaking, Fan Xian looked at Fan Ruoruo, "Yes, Ruoruo."

"Yes, Dad, we hunted all afternoon, it was fun." Fan Ruoruo continued.

The three of them were very cautious when they went out, and they ran a long way to make sure that there was no one around before they started training.

On the way back, they had already unified their statements, so they were not afraid of being questioned at all.
"Then where is the prey?" Fan Jian said with no anger on his face.

"Send it to the kitchen, two rabbits and a deer, tomorrow you will be lucky." Fan Xian said with a smile.

For this excuse, he really went hunting, hunting with a gun, and the speed was extremely fast.

"Nonsense, this capital is a place of right and wrong, it's too dangerous for three people to go out, next time you go out, you must bring guards, did you hear that?!"

Fan Jian came here this time, on the one hand, he was really worried about the two of them, especially Fan Xian, who had a marriage contract with the eldest princess' daughter, and would be in charge of the Royal Chamber of Commerce: Internal Treasury.

There were a lot of people who wanted to get rid of Fan Xian. It was a bit dangerous to go out of the city suddenly today, but it's okay now, so it's over, just be careful next time.

On the other hand, he also heard that Fan Xian regarded a scholar as a guest of honor.

He asked his servants to observe for a while before, trying to find out the bottom line, but he didn't have any other information except that this guy ate a lot, so he came here to take a look at this time.

"I heard it, I must pay attention next time." The two quickly bowed their heads in agreement.

Fan Jian looked at Lin Chen at this time, "This gentleman's identity, Fan Xian, won't you introduce it to me?"

"Father, this gentleman's name is Zhou Ming. He came to the mansion to share with me today. His poetic quality is very high. It made me hate to meet him so late. Therefore, he is called a brother, and he is honored as my guest in Fan's mansion."

"Oh? Poetry quality is extremely high?" Fan Jian was slightly surprised, "Can it be compared with the "Climbing the High" you made a few days ago?"

"It's not as good, but it's not far behind." Fan Xian said while winking at Lin Chen.

This was completely made up by Fan Xian on the spot, because during the previous conversation, Lin Chen also mentioned the 'fake identity' he created earlier, so as long as the two cooperate well, basically there will be no problems.

"Uncle, Mr. Fan is right. I really hit it off with him."

Lin Chen smiled, "As for poetry, I, Mr. Zhou, have some talent. How about this, I will compose a poem and give it to my uncle as a gift for staying today."

"Okay, come here, bring Mr. Zhou a pen and ink!" Fan Jianlang said with a smile on his face.

If Lin Chen dared to do this, he must have ink in his stomach. If it is true that Zhou Ming can write good poems as Fan Xian said later.

Then this is a good thing, Fan Xian is very dangerous in the capital, many ordinary friends are nothing, but it would be great if there is one more friend with real material.

Just as the servants went to get paper and pens, in the palace, Hou Gongzheng was reporting the information of the Inspection Institute to Emperor Qing.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Fan went out of the city this afternoon, and the Procuratorate sent two people to follow him. However, they moved very fast, as if they knew someone was following them, and soon disappeared after detours."

"However, after searching for more than an hour, the people of the Inspection Institute found the traces of the three people, but the terrain was a very special valley."

"The guard named Teng Zijing was guarding the entrance of the valley, and the people from the inspection institute didn't dare to approach at all, so they didn't know what happened in the valley, but they were far away, and they heard a loud noise inside, like thunder. , reverberating in the valley, they want"

"Wait." Emperor Qing waved his hand, "You said there was thunder coming from the valley?"

"That's what it says in the letter." Seeing Emperor Qing's eyes, Eunuch Hou understood, and immediately handed over the letter in his hand, "Please read, Your Majesty."

Emperor Qing took the letter, and after looking at it for a few times, there was a bit of surprise in his eyes.

This incident reminded him of a long time ago, when Fan Xian's mother Ye Qingmei was alive, a thing called gunpowder.

This kind of thing is very terrifying, it can be called a fetish!

But Ye Qingmei said that this kind of thing shouldn't exist in the world, and it disappeared shortly after it appeared, and could never be found again.

But today, does the sound of thunder have anything to do with the gunpowder? !
