"Lord Chen has said that our Song family has arranged guards inside and out, so Your Majesty and Lord Chen can rest assured," Song Qinglian quickly expressed.
The City Lord nodded in agreement. "I have also arranged for spies within the city to closely monitor the surroundings. Any sign of trouble will be detected immediately."
"Alright, I will take my leave to rest now."
While the Empress rested, Chen Anlin wandered around the Song residence, inspecting its defenses.
Around evening, Song Qinglian and Song Dabaizi came over to say that their in-laws had arrived and invited Chen Anlin to meet them.
"Well then, let's go meet them!"
Chen Anlin glanced at Song Dabaizi's fortune, which remained unchanged.
Upon entering the main hall, Chen Anlin was taken aback. In the hall stood an extraordinarily beautiful woman whose aura was strikingly powerful.
"A daughter of fortune!"
Through introductions, he learned that this woman was Song Dabaizi's fiancée, named Xu Qingxue.
With the appearance of a daughter of fortune, Chen Anlin speculated that there must be a son of fortune nearby as well.
This was quite peculiar; ever since Xiao Chen's death, it seemed that the Heavenly Dao had produced many sons of fortune. It felt like one could stumble upon them in every corner.
However, this was also advantageous as it provided an opportunity to seize their fortune.
It was time for his monthly search for sons of fortune.
He immediately spent some fortune points to search for any sons of fortune within a thousand miles.
[Search successful.]
[Son of Fortune: Fang Yuan, Fortune Level! Identity: A horse servant of the Song family.]
[Detecting Fang Yuan's abilities: Fang Yuan possesses a dragon soul, has inherited dragon lineage, and carries a trace of dragon blood.]
Chen Anlin was stunned.
So Fang Yuan was a horse servant of the Song family; this son of fortune was not simple at all. He had acquired a dragon soul and dragon inheritance.
This meant that Xu Qingxue must have known Fang Yuan; it was precisely because she had his support that her fortune had reached such heights.
"Miss Xu, you and Song Dabaizi truly are a match made in heaven! When is your wedding? I must certainly present my congratulations," Chen Anlin said with a smile as he gazed at Xu Qingxue.
Upon hearing the news of the marriage, Xu Qingxue's expression darkened as she glanced at Song Daba.
Song Daba was instantly excited; Chen Anlin was a prominent figure in front of the Emperor. If he was invited to the wedding, would the Empress herself also attend? Just thinking about it filled him with exhilaration!
"Thank you, Lord Chen. The wedding is probably in ten days, but first, we need to retrieve the corpse of the Flood Dragon," Xu Qingxue replied coldly.
Seeing her demeanor, Chen Anlin understood that Xu Qingxue did not like Song Daba.
"Don't worry, Qingxue. In ten days, I will make you the happiest person in the world," Song Daba said excitedly.
He knew that Xu Qingxue wasn't fond of him, but that didn't matter. Although forcing a relationship might not yield sweet results, it would certainly quench his thirst! He believed that Xu Qingxue would soon get used to him.
After chatting for a while, Chen Anlin said, "By the way, Song Daba, I heard that your family raises some fine horses. Could you take me to see them? I also have a fondness for horses and am quite curious about how they thrive in such a cold place."
"Of course, Lord Chen! Please follow me," Song Daba replied eagerly as he led the way.
Xu Qingxue was pulled along by Song Daba and had no choice but to follow.
Before long, they arrived at the stables. As soon as they entered, Chen Anlin noticed a handsome young man feeding the horses.
This young man was none other than Fang Yuan, the Son of Fortune!
"What are they doing here?" Fang Yuan frowned as he looked at Chen Anlin.
He had a strong dislike for those who served the Empress, and seeing Song Daba holding Xu Qingxue's hand only fueled his anger.
"How dare you touch my woman?!" he thought furiously.
However, in that moment of rage, he reminded himself to stay calm.
His rational mind urged him to endure and stick to his plan; he needed to proceed carefully and avoid acting impulsively.
"Master Chen, this is my horse servant, specifically trained for horses. Fang Yuan, kneel and greet Master Chen," Song Dabao said with a hint of displeasure when he noticed Fang Yuan did not approach.
Fang Yuan was taken aback, his expression cold as he reluctantly stepped forward and said, "Master Chen."
"Why aren't you kneeling?" Chen Anlin asked.
Fang Yuan took a deep breath and finally knelt down.
"Song Dabao, your horse servant seems to lack understanding," Chen Anlin remarked indifferently.
Fang Yuan lowered his head, his expression shifting slightly. He was just a horse servant; why was Chen Anlin targeting him?
Song Dabao thought that Chen Anlin was simply displeased with Fang Yuan, so he quickly said, "Master Chen, please calm your anger. This child has no parents; I will definitely teach him properly in the future."
"Song Dabao, let me ask you, did you wholesale your entire clan?" Chen Anlin inquired.
Song Dabao was taken aback. "Master Chen, what do you mean by that?"
"Having someone so ignorant around your household can easily offend His Majesty. Do you understand the consequences of offending His Majesty? Your entire clan could be in danger! That's why I asked if you wholesale your clan because it seems like too many," Chen Anlin explained.
Song Dabao hurriedly replied, "I understand now. I'll get rid of this kid right away."
Fang Yuan was bewildered. He was just a weak horse servant; why was he being targeted like this?
"No!!"
