Heavenly Meteor, Crossing into the Harem of Emperor Xuan of Chen

  An Wei Xin pulled Lan Ling Xuan into the front of the crowd, and it turned out that inside was a street performer, a bare-chested man holding two fire sticks in his hand, with a "whoosh" sound spitting out flames over a meter high, the surrounding crowd erupted in cheers.

  Lan Lingxuan hugged the excited little woman beside him, feeling warm in his heart. He looked at her small face, which was lit up by the flames and thought she was adorable. Lan Lingxuan's attention was all on An Weixin, thinking that she was even more beautiful than the acrobatics. Suddenly, An Weixin let out a cry of surprise, and Lan Lingxuan followed her gaze to see the man swallow the fire from the torch, then spit it out repeatedly. On the fourth time the man swallowed the fire, he suddenly turned towards An Weixin's direction, spat out the flames, which shot straight at An Weixin and Lan Lingxuan. The crowd let out a cry of surprise and scrambled to get out of the way, Lan Lingxuan hugged An Weixin and quickly dodged the flames.

  "What a guy!" Lan Lingxuan's eyes were fiercely staring at the person in front of him, several rough men with bare upper bodies and big knives in their hands rushed towards him without saying a word. Lan Lingxuan pushed An Weixin away, "Wait for me." After that, he started fighting those people.

  An Weixin was pushed back several steps by Lan Lingxuan and fell into the chaotic crowd. Someone grabbed her hand and pulled her to run, but An Weixin struggled a few times and couldn't break free. As they got further and further away from Lan Lingxuan, An Weixin finally got angry, stopped abruptly, and yanked backwards with force, causing the person holding her hand to stumble and stop.

  "What's wrong with you! Why are you always pulling me?" The scolded person was taken aback, looking at An Weixin's somewhat bewildered expression. Just as she turned to leave, she was stopped by the man again. "What do you want to do!" An Weixin looked at the man in front of her, who was wearing a half-mask, and couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.

  "Aunt, miss, it's dangerous over there, you'd better not go." An Wei gave him a white eye, whether she went or not had nothing to do with him. Just as she was about to bypass the man, he blocked her way again.

  "I'm telling you..."

  "Be careful, miss!" An Weixin was bumped by the crowd running from behind and fell directly into that person's arms. A faint, indescribable fragrance suddenly enveloped her nostrils. "Miss, are you okay?" A warm voice came from above her head. An Weixin pushed him away. The commotion caused by the fight was getting bigger and bigger, making it impossible for An Weixin to go back against the crowd. She and the masked man were squeezed by the crowd to who-knows-where, anyway, they should be far away from Lan Lingxuan. Considering Lan Lingxuan's skills, although he was one against four, it wasn't difficult for him either. An Weixin wasn't so worried anymore. Since the performance on the flower boat was about to start soon, she might as well go back and wait for him.

  "Where is the young lady going in the next block?" An Wei Xin had just walked a few steps when that person caught up with her again. An Wei Xin ignored him, but he continued to talk to himself, "Is the young lady going to watch the flower boat performance? I heard this year's flower boat performance is different from previous years. In previous years, it was just an ordinary performance, but this year it has become a competition for the top courtesan. The headlining courtesans of Kyoto's largest brothels will all be there. I even heard that the prince will be participating. The young lady who wins the top courtesan title can make any request to the prince, and it's not impossible that she could even become a concubine or the prince's consort. Although those girls are from brothels, they are selling their art, not their bodies...

  An Wei suddenly turned around, her eyes blazing with anger as she stared at the man who was muttering to himself. Zhong Chuan was taken aback by her gaze and stopped mid-sentence, swallowing hard before speaking again. "Shut your mouth! Otherwise, you'd better not think about opening it again!"

  An Weixin walked in the direction of the flower boat, Zhong Chuan still followed behind her, only now she was much quieter due to An's warning. An Weixin gritted her teeth and cursed under her breath: "Flower Queen selection? It must be that unlucky prince again, if he dares to send someone to Lan Lingxuan, she'll burn his palace to ashes!"

  An Wei's temper is really something, she settled the matter with Zhong Liyu and Lan Lingzhe, if he dares to send someone to Xuan Wangfu again, she'll have them enter standing up and leave lying down!

  An Wei returned to the flower boat and indeed saw Lan Lingxuan. It was as if he had a premonition, for Lan Lingxuan caught sight of her at once. He had been worried that she might be in danger, but now that he saw her safe and sound, he felt relieved. What struck Lan Lingxuan as odd was that those acrobats didn't seem like assassins; they merely entangled him for a moment before retreating. When he turned around to look for An Wei, however, she had vanished.

  "Hmph!" Before Lan Lingxuan could speak, An Weixin let out a cold hum and walked past him towards the boat. Lan Lingxuan was confused and wanted to go over and ask what was going on, but someone else beat him to it. Just now, he had only been paying attention to An Weixin and hadn't noticed when a man appeared beside her.

  "Only you know when you'll come back."

  "Ran into some trouble."

  "Who is he?"

  "In the lower reaches of the river..."

  "I picked it up on the road." Before Zhong Chuan could finish speaking, An Wei had already added this sentence.

  Everyone "......" Zhong Chuan smiled awkwardly.

  "How are you still following me?" An Wei Xin asked, which made Zhong Chuan stunned. Seeing his silly expression, An Wei Xin didn't bother to ask again, "Forget it, do as you please." An Wei Xin found a seat and sat down, while Zhong Chuan sat beside her very naturally.

  When Lan Lingxuan appeared, everyone clearly felt a strong sense of oppression, and the air suddenly became very thin. The entire cabin was quiet, with only Zhong Chuan still flattering An Weixin as if nothing had happened.

  "Try this, miss, this cloud cake is delicious, and so is this." An Wei accepted whatever Zhong Chuan gave her, eating everything without hesitation, as if converting anger into appetite. Everyone looked at each other nervously, not even daring to breathe loudly, fearing that they would be used as a punching bag by the furious Xuan Wangye. Even the usually noisy Lan Mei'er had become quiet and well-behaved.

  A loud crash made everyone gasp, "Who is he!" The three words "Lan Ling Xuan" seemed to be squeezed out of his teeth, his teeth chattering loudly, and the veins on his two fists were also bulging.

  "He? I don't know." An Wei's three words made Lan Lingxuan almost pass out, and he suddenly swung a punch at Zhong Chuan. It was unclear whether it was coincidence or not, but Zhong Chuan shouted "Ah!" and fell off his chair, miraculously dodging the punch. Feng Qi rubbed his eyes in disbelief, looking like he had seen a ghost. Lan Lingxuan's face turned even darker after missing the punch. Without saying another word, he lifted his leg and swept it across the room, sending the round table inside the cabin flying out. Zhong Chuan saw him coming and quickly ran forward, but tripped on his own hem and fell flat on his face. Lan Lingxuan's swift kick just barely missed him again, and Feng Qi couldn't help but admire Zhong Chuan's incredible luck.

  One leg kicked out, Blue Lingxuan directly grabbed towards Zhong Chuan. The momentum was not to be underestimated, and he would not stop until he had his way. Blue Lingxuan's five fingers turned into claws as he picked up Zhong Chuan, who struggled in mid-air while shouting, "Miss, miss, save me!" This shout only fueled Blue Lingxuan's anger, and with a flick of his right hand, the person was thrown out in a parabolic arc.

  "Ah......!" After a loud splash, everything went silent. Blue Ling Xuan sat down beside An Wei Xin with a satisfied smile, patting his hands together.

  The wind standing beside him couldn't help but think: Fortunately, the little princess didn't plead for mercy, otherwise that brother would have been made into who-knows-what by his father! As for Lan Lingxuan throwing Zhong Chuan out, An Wei had no opinion on it and continued to eat on her own, which also eased Lan Lingxuan's darkened face a lot.

  "Ladies and gentlemen!" A brocade-clad guard emerged from a huge flower boat in the center of the lake, where Prince Lan Lingche sat at the bow, wearing a jade crown and a bright yellow dragon robe. "The prince says that whoever wins the Flower Queen title today can make any request they want, as long as it's not excessive, and the prince will grant it." The guard finished speaking and retreated behind Lan Lingche.

  Five flower boats were moored in a row, with the name of each pleasure house hung at the bow. They were, in order, Yixiangyuan, Tan Chun Lou, Lan Xiang Ge, Jin Feng Lou and Hui Chun Lou. At the bow of each boat was hung a thin silk gauze, behind which could be seen a beautiful woman standing with elegant demeanor.
