Phantom Spear - C178
Previously, he said the same thing as well: Jiang Feng told Lu Jianfei his guess. He guessed that it was most likely because Liu Shichen accepted as his disciple for so many years, that Zhan Qun was grateful for his life saving grace. That was why he listened to Liu Shichen’s words. On the other hand, Liu Shichen had been brooding over the matter of him beating up Liu Bingbing. He didn’t want his good relationship with his daughter to break apart because of Jiang Feng; Young Master Liu could understand the feelings of his younger sister and father, and it was best for him to persuade them otherwise. In that instant, Liu Shichen felt that he was already old.
In the capital city, within the lucky jade farm, Faang Xinyao unknowingly walked over. She raised her head and looked at the jade shop’s plaque, her heart rippled a little, her thoughts floating to the moon, where Young Master Liu had accompanied her on a stroll around the capital for a day, finally arriving at the jade shop. Faang Xinyao took a fancy to the shop’s treasure. Towards the matter of Young Master Liu gifting her jade, she was originally very resistant, but she could also see the true feelings Young Master Liu had towards her, and her heart was very moved. After all, other than her father, there had never been a man who gave her such a precious gift that was filled with true feelings. Furthermore, Young Master Liu was a handsome man with a rich heart and a handsome appearance. If not for the relationship between senior and junior, perhaps he would really be willing to travel the world with Young Master Liu or live a boring life together in the palace. That person was just a normal commoner. How could he withstand this attack, he cried out painfully: “Miss, miss, let go of me, I don’t have any other intentions, I just wanted to tell you not to stand in the middle of the road, I can’t pass by the car carrying the rice.” After Faang Xinyao heard him say that, and saw that there was indeed a big trailer behind, he let go and apologized: I’m really sorry, I’ll get out of the way now. The thin man touched his hands and then pushed his cart forward, muttering to himself, “Sigh, I really am unlucky. Two months ago today, I almost bumped into a girl and was scolded by her, and today, I was beaten up by another girl. It seems that the sky is not good for me, after sending this cart of rice back to Mizhuang, I will go find a fortune-teller.”
Faang Xinyao stood at the entrance of the jade shop for a long time. The shopkeeper seemed to be able to recognize her, so he walked out with a face full of smiles and said: “Yo, young lady, aren’t you the young lady who came to our shop to pick jade last month?” Faang Xinyao smiled apologetically: Ah, it’s me. The shopkeeper laughed, “Haha, we don’t have other abilities, but speaking of acquaintances, I have photographic memory. Otherwise, this business wouldn’t be so popular.” Seeing him being so polite, Faang Xinyao said: “Yes, I hope that the boss will do the better.” The manager suddenly looked to the side and asked, “Eh, young lady, why haven’t we seen that young master that was with you last time?” Faang Xinyao suddenly felt a chill in her heart, and his expression became ugly. The shopkeeper had been doing business for so many years, and the number of officials and nobles who came to his shop were countless. He could observe their expressions and his ability to react in time was extremely strong, and when he saw Faang Xinyao’s expression, he quickly changed the topic, and said: “Ah, I think that young master must have some important matters that she is busy with today, so she cannot accompany this young lady. “Haha, as men, do your best, and be busy showing that you are capable. Being a high-ranking official makes a lot of money, unlike useless people like us who spend their time leisurely in this shop, it’s not a big deal.” Although the shopkeeper had flattered him, Faang Xinyao still felt comfortable listening to him. She dispelled her worry and revealed a look of worry: “Boss, you are also very talented. The head storekeeper also laughed, “My store only serves for everyone. It’s just a place to make a living. Oh right, young lady, since you have come today, why not come and take a look? As Faang Xinyao was told by the shopkeeper, she was already feeling depressed, so she just followed him into the shop to have a look.
The shopkeeper’s sharp eyes immediately caught sight of the string around Faang Xinyao’s neck, and asked: “Miss, our shop’s treasure shop, is it comfortable for you to bring it?” Faang Xinyao was suddenly stunned. She took out the Jade of the Moon and looked at it for a long time before saying, “Un, very comfortable. It is indeed a good piece of jade. The shopkeeper hurriedly said, “Hehe, young lady, this jade comes from the heavens. I believe there must be a God within it. As long as you believe it, it will definitely work.” Faang Xinyao slowly nodded her head. Suddenly, she remembered something and asked, “Boss, do you have any jade that is suitable for men to wear?” Hearing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly said, “Yes, yes. I have everything I need in the shop. I will look for it for you right now.” Faang Xinyao continued, “Boss, don’t pick things that are too expensive. I don’t have that much silver with me.” The storekeeper laughed and said, “Hey, what are you talking about? I can’t even be happy that you came to our store. Why would I accept your money? I’m really thinking too much.” Faang Xinyao was a little surprised, and said: “Boss opened the door to do business, how can I take it for free.” The shopkeeper just smiled and didn’t say anything. He bent down to look for the jade.
Jiang Feng and Lu Jianfei could not find Faang Xinyao at the outskirts of the city, so they rushed to the city’s gate. The two of them dismounted, and just as the city guards wanted to come over to greet them, Lu Jianfei flew to their side and said in a low voice: “Today, Master Chiang and I have matters to attend to, so we cannot reveal it.” The gatekeeping officer nodded in agreement without saluting or saying anything else. Lu Jianfei pointed to Jiang Feng and said: “Leave the horses to them, we’ll go into the city to search for them.” Jiang Feng replied with an “oh”. An officer stepped forward to receive his horse’s reins. Lu Jianfei instructed softly, “If you see …” His voice was soft and Jiang Feng, who was standing at the side, couldn’t even hear him clearly, but he could guess that Lu Jianfei must have told them that if they saw any sort of girl, he wanted her to stay for the time being and tell them who wanted to see her or something like that. Lu Jianfei walked over to Jiang Feng’s side and said, “Master Chiang, let’s go.” Jiang Feng nodded his head in agreement, and said while walking: “Master Lu, you just said that if they saw you, they would let her stay, right?” Lu Jianfei looked at Jiang Feng and said: “I was only halfway there. I first asked them if they noticed Faang Xinyao entering the city, and they said that they seemed to have seen a lady dressed like that enter the city. After that, I told them to keep her if she prepared to leave. ” Jiang Feng was truly impressed by Lu Jianfei’s ability to handle things, he was truly cautious, and said: “Master Lu, but you have never thought about it, what if Lady Faang thinks that the enemy wants to capture her, what happens if she resists?” Lu Jianfei said with a grave expression on his face. “Impossible.” Jiang Feng asked: “Oh? Why is it impossible? Based on my understanding of the Lady Faang, she is a tough and unyielding woman. ” Lu Jianfei’s eyes suddenly flashed with determination, and said: “Even if she was even more unyielding, she would still not be able to pass the defense officer’s test. Because it was my order, if they allowed Faang Xinyao to take half a step outside the city gates, the consequences would be death. ” After Jiang Feng heard this, his heart could not help but shiver. As expected of someone who had worked at the emperor’s side for so many years, he really didn’t do anything superfluous. Seeing that he was lost in thought, Lu Jianfei said: “Master Chiang, we better hurry up and find Faang Xinyao. Otherwise, if she had any conflicts with the city guards, I believe you and I are both not willing to see such an outcome.” Jiang Feng nodded in agreement before following behind him.
What about later?
And then we’ll see how it breaks down in the next round.
