Chapter 312 True Secret Protection
Mei Cheng'an withdrew his gaze and looked at Wang Qinian.
"Just bring the teapot over here."
Wang Qinian glanced at Chen Pingping and nodded.
"Uh...Okay!"
After saying that, he turned and left.
Mei Cheng'an turned around and walked to Chen Pingping's side and squatted down. He had nothing to do anyway, so he might as well enjoy the flowers.
You know what, these wild flowers growing on the rocks have a different temperament from domestic flowers and have their own unique flavor.
Even though they are sparse and slightly decaying, they still exude a tenacious and upright demeanor, which is pleasing to the eye.
"I haven't seen his shadow for a long time. Where has he been?"
After quietly admiring the flowers for a while, Mei Chengan asked casually.
Chen Pingping answered casually.
"He is so elusive, who knows him?"
Mei Cheng'an curled the corners of his mouth when he heard this. Just as he was about to join in on the teasing of the shadow, he suddenly heard Fan Xian's exclamation from behind him.
"Lao Wang? Why are you here?"
Chen Pingping smiled when he heard this.
"coming."
Mei Cheng'an glanced at him, then turned around and looked back, only Wang Qinian was in sight.
He was holding a large tray and looking towards the door. Soon Fan Xian came into his sight and stood in front of Wang Qinian.
"Is Lao Mei here too? Where's Chen Pingping?"
Wang Qinian was holding something and had no hands free, so he could only nod his chin towards Mei Chengan.
"Dean Chen and the young master are inside."
Seeing Fan Xian looking over after hearing the voice, Mei Cheng'an raised his hand and greeted him.
Fan Xian followed suit, waved his hand, glanced at what Wang Qinian was holding, took a piece of dessert from it, and shook it in front of Wang Qinian's eyes.
"With so many things, I'll help you share some of the burden."
After saying that, Fan Xian walked towards the stone wall.
"..."
Wang Qinian glanced at Fan Xian's back speechlessly, shook his head and followed him.
After taking a bite of the dessert, Fan Xian started chatting with Mei Chengan from a distance.
“After I came out of the palace, I met Ye Ling’er. She said the dinner had ended long ago, so I went straight to your house.
Who would have thought that your doorman said you didn't go home at all. I was wondering where you were going, but I didn't expect you to be here."
When he got to the front, he stopped and glanced at Chen Pingping who was still immersed in looking at the flowers. There was a hint of surprise in Fan Xian's eyes. He knew he was coming, so why didn't he react?
Looking at Mei Chengan, he asked in a low voice.
"What's wrong with him? What were you talking about just now? He doesn't seem to be in a very good mood."
Chen Pingping responded softly without even raising his head.
"I'm not unhappy. I'm just looking at the flowers."
Seeing Fan Xian's eyes on him, Mei Cheng'an shrugged, waved to Wang Qinian who was walking behind him, and after Wang Qinian brought the tray to him, he opened the cup from it, picked up the teapot and poured two cups of tea.
He picked up one of the cups and handed it to Chen Pingping, reminding him.
"Tea."
Chen Pingping stood up slightly, turned around to take the teacup, held the cup and drank while leaning forward to continue looking at the flowers.
Mei Cheng'an met Fan Xian's curious gaze and smiled.
"Please help him quickly. There's something wrong with those flowers. He's worried sick. He's waiting for you."
"wait for me?"
Fan Xian exclaimed in surprise and walked over.
"What happened to the flowers?"
Chen Pingping glanced at Fan Xian who was squatting on his left, pointed at the withered flowers, and said with a sad face.
"Look at these flowers. They have plenty of sunlight and water, so why are they withering?!"
Fan Xian took a quick glance and exclaimed.
"Flowers and plants don't just need sunlight and water; many factors such as the growing environment and geographical location will have an impact.
If any link or factor goes wrong, it may lead to its withering and decline. This is normal. "
What he said was pretty much the same as what Mei Chengan said. Chen Pingping nodded and asked.
"So do you think these flowers can be saved?"
Fan Xian didn't say anything, but suddenly reached out and tried to pull up the wild flower in front of him by the roots.
"Hey, don't!"
Although Chen Pingping screamed and reached out to stop him immediately after noticing his intention, it was too late.
Almost at the same time he made the sound, the flower was pulled up by Fan Xian.
"..."
On the other side, Mei Cheng'an, who was watching the show with a cup of tea in his hand, almost couldn't hold back his laughter. After swallowing the tea in his mouth, he burst into laughter.
Fan Xian looked at the two people next to him strangely, not understanding what they were laughing at. After taking a look at the rhizome of the wild flower, he raised the rhizome to his nose and sniffed it.
After he had almost figured it out, he put the wild flowers down, turned to look at Chen Pingping and said something in a relaxed tone.
"It's okay, these flowers can still be saved, they just lack potassium."
After saying that, he lowered his head and put the wild flower back.
Chen Pingping was stunned for a moment when he heard this.
"Potassium?"
Fan Xian paused, then immediately realized that the ancients would not understand this name. He rolled his eyes and spoke.
"When I was learning poison from my teacher, I planted some herbs. I'll make some powder for you later. Don't worry, I'll definitely revive these flowers."
Chen Pingping breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that, sat up straight and leaned back in his chair, sipping his tea and watching him fiddle with it quietly.
After Fan Xian dealt with the wild flower, he plucked a few more from other places and observed them, speaking casually.
"In fact, these wild flowers are not very big, so it is easier to take care of them if they are transplanted into pots."
Upon hearing this, Chen Pingping put down the teacup and smiled gently.
"Your mother said that it has its destiny, so let it go." Upon hearing this, Fan Xian looked up at Chen Pingping, then looked down at the wild flower in his hand and put it back in its place.
"So you haven't touched them?"
Chen Pingping, whose memories were brought back, said with a twinkling look in his eyes.
"Yes, over the years, no matter how far I went, I always thought about these flowers, afraid that I would come back and not see them anymore."
As he said this, he took a deep breath and then looked at Fan Xian and smiled.
"If it weren't for you, I'm afraid these flowers wouldn't... survive this summer."
From his tone and words just now, Fan Xian could sense Chen Pingping's inner thoughts. On the surface, he seemed to be nervous about Hua, but in reality, he was...
"Do you miss her?"
Fan Xian couldn't help but look up and asked.
Chen Pingping's eyes flashed, but he said nothing.
Silence is better than words at this moment, and Fan Xian understood it in his heart.
"Don't worry, I will protect the destiny of these wild flowers. I am their destiny!"
Mei Cheng'an's mouth twitched when he heard this. He thought to himself, what a middle school student. Why did he get so excited for no reason? It was because of that guy.
Chen Pingping was deeply moved when he heard this. His eyes flickered for a long time, and he didn't know what interesting thing he was thinking of. His smile became more and more prominent, and he murmured with emotion.
"Your mother planted the flowers, and you are here to protect them. This is also... God's will!"
Mei Chengan raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
In this way, it is indeed an interesting reincarnation, with a sense of fate, which is wonderful beyond words.
……
After Fan Xian finished inspecting the wild flowers and had some tea and snacks, he pushed Chen Pingping and the others left the office.
Chen Pingping didn't say where they were going, but just gave directions from time to time. The group didn't move very fast, and was even a little slow.
"This mission is both a test and an opportunity, but one thing is certain: we must bring Yan Bingyun back safely!"
Fan Xian, who was pushing the wheelchair, nodded when he heard this.
"clear."
Chen Pingping tilted his head.
"There is one more thing. Listen up, both of you. When you get to Northern Qi, be wary of one person. Jinyiwei Zhenfushi Shen Zhong. Be careful of him. This man is very dangerous because he hides a knife behind his smile!"
Fan Xian looked down at him.
"If you can remember someone, he must not be a good person."
Speaking of Shen Zhong, Mei Cheng'an felt that Chen Pingping's evaluation of him was indeed very insightful and appropriate.
This man appears to be smiling and kind on the surface, but in fact he is cold-blooded and ruthless and kills people without blinking an eye.
In the original drama, what impressed Mei Cheng'an most about him was not the later confrontation between him and Fan Xian, but a trivial matter.
The old maid beside his master was rude to him and killed him without blinking an eye.
This shows how arrogant and conceited he is.
Mei Cheng'an was still thinking about it, while Chen Pingping smiled after hearing what Fan Xian said and continued to explain.
"I have had the rest of the information put on your carriage. Take a good look at it on the way. If you don't understand anything about the process, ask Mei Cheng'an. He knows it all. I will just say one thing: you must remember the structure of Northern Qi."
Mei Cheng'an was from the Honglu Temple, so he was naturally familiar with the procedures. So when they heard this, neither of them said anything. Fan Xian responded.
"Okay, I remember."
Chen Pingping suddenly waved his hand and Fan Xian stopped immediately. Mei Chengan and Wang Qinian naturally stopped as well.
Leaning back, Chen Pingping tilted his head towards Fan Xian. He noticed from the corner of his eye that Fan Xian was looking down at him, so he spoke softly.
"In two days, you will be on a diplomatic mission to Northern Qi. I will send someone to secretly protect you to prevent the princess from taking action against you."
Fan Xian was touched and responded softly.
"it is good!"
Mei Cheng'an, who was standing aside with his hands behind his back, glanced at Chen Pingping and curled his lips calmly when he heard this.
What a secret protection! This is real secret protection. Just as the name suggests, it is only in the dark and will never show up at any time!
Laugh to death!
After explaining everything that needed to be explained, Chen Pingping turned around and asked casually with a smile on his face and a relaxed tone.
"Have you met Lin Ruofu?"
Fan Xian answered honestly.
"I saw you before entering the palace."
Chen Pingping asked with a smile.
"What did he tell you?"
Fan Xian's expression suddenly became a little embarrassed. Prime Minister Lin had predicted His Majesty's actions in advance and gave targeted advice.
Unfortunately, he couldn't withstand Emperor Qing's threat.
After taking a deep breath, Fan Xian spoke.
"He said, no matter what His Majesty asks me to do, I should not agree to it unless there is a clear decree."
Chen Pingping killed people and destroyed their hearts.
"But you agreed to everything."
Fan Xian gave a bitter smile.
"His Majesty said that if I don't go to Northern Qi, he will arrange a new marriage for me."
Mei Chengan asked with pretended curiosity.
"Whose family are you changing to? Does her family have a lot of property and treasures?"
"..."
Fan Xian looked at his fellow villager in complete silence.
"What the hell are you talking about?!"
Mei Chengan smiled.
"It's just a joke, why aren't you laughing? Are you born not to laugh?"
Chen Pingping couldn't hold back her laughter after hearing this. She started to chuckle and her shoulders were shaking violently.
Fan Xian's head was filled with black lines.
