Phantom Spear - C183
Previously, she mentioned that Lu Jianfei invited Faang Xinyao and his sister to sit in a room in the restaurant and chat for a while. Lu Jianfei had told his everything that he knew so she could be considered slightly at ease. However, right now, Liu Shichen had a lot of military power and authority, there were some things that even the current Emperor could not decide alone, and even had to look at other people’s faces, so Lu Jianfei advised Faang Xinyao to first prepare to do bad things.
Faang Xinyao knew the meaning behind Lu Jianfei’s words, but she was still unwilling to believe the truth, and said: “Master Lu, I beg you, please speak nicely in front of the Emperor. You must protect my father’s life, even if he cannot reinstate his position, even if we can only eat coarse tea and not rice in the future.” Lu Jianfei nodded his head in appreciation and said, “Good, you have ambition. I never thought that a young lady like you, who has been pampered since childhood, would still be able to endure so many hardships without a single complaint. Faang Xinyao, I admire you very much. However, even if I admire you, I still cannot make any promises to you. ” At this time, the waiter carried a large pile of delicious dishes onto the table. Lu Jianfei passed some silver over to him for him to go out and take a look at the wind.
Jiang Feng had not been able to say anything just now, and now he hurriedly said: “Lady Faang, you have been out for the whole morning. You must be hungry, eat something first.” Faang Xinyao shook her head and said: “I don’t have any appetite at the moment, Big Brother Chiang, you and Master Lu can eat.” Jiang Feng frowned: “How can that be? If a man is made of iron, then he’s made of steel. If he doesn’t eat, then he’ll panic. How can he not eat? ” Faang Xinyao’s heart was in a mess, she said: “Big Brother Chiang, you guys go ahead and eat, I really can’t eat anything at all. I don’t know if father is still alive, how will I …” Lu Jianfei suddenly opened his mouth and reproached: “Just now, I was praising you, but why has the female hero become such a lady’s temper now? Master Chiang is right, saving your father requires a lot of time and energy, not to mention, you can’t even save your father by yourself! If you fall at this moment, what if something happens to your father and you fall? Faang Xinyao looked at Lu Jianfei, and knew that what he said was reasonable, Jiang Feng patted Faang Xinyao’s shoulders and said: “Lady Faang, rushing is not always the best, let’s think it over carefully.” Faang Xinyao’s eyes suddenly turned sour, but she, who was strong and stubborn, would not easily shed tears. Jiang Feng placed some of the vegetables and pieces of meat into Faang Xinyao’s bowl, and said: “Lady Faang, hurry up and eat. Faang Xinyao was extremely grateful to Jiang Feng. After all, he had only been Jiang Feng for so long, and he might even have been Young Master Liu, treating as a good friend. Furthermore, he would be running errands for his own matters. She picked up the meat and put it in her mouth.
Lu Jianfei then said: “When I go out to do errands, I can’t drink alcohol. Master Chiang, do you want to drink a cup?” Jiang Feng looked at the jar of wine in front of him, but did not know what to say. Lu Jianfei looked at Jiang Feng and said: “Master Chiang, if you want to drink, you can drink a few cups. You are not handling errands, and are not subject to the rules of the palace.” Jiang Feng knew that Lu Jianfei had always been strict with his discipline, which was why he was hesitating. But when Lu Jianfei allowed him to drink, he said: “It’s too boring to drink it alone, I’m not drinking it.” Unexpectedly, Faang Xinyao immediately said: “Since Master Lu has matters to attend to and cannot drink, and you are so interested, why don’t I accompany you and drink a few cups?” Jiang Feng looked at Faang Xinyao in shock, while Lu Jianfei acted as if he was watching a good show. He immediately passed the wine pot over and said: “Alright, since we are all young ladies of a noble family and do not drink alcohol, I will see how much you can drink today.” Faang Xinyao did not care about what Lu Jianfei had said. Seeing that she had already taken the initiative, Jiang Feng also hurriedly lifted up his wine pot to pour wine into his cup to her and her, Jiang Feng raised his glass and said: “Lady Faang, we have known each other for so long, yet we have never drunk wine together. Come, let me toast you with this cup.” In Faang Xinyao’s memory, he, Wang Yixin, Taoist Tai Xu, Lee Qingshuang and Lee Qingshuang had gone to the Heaven Fragrant Restaurant for a big meal together when Jiang Feng had become the champion of World Wulin Conference. At that time, she and Lee Qingshuang had not gotten even a single drop of it, and the four men had drunk their fill of it happily. Now, Du Shaoyang and the others had already returned to Henan Province, and that shifty looking Wang Yixin had also disappeared without a trace. Jiang Feng instantly drained his cup, Lu Jianfei saw that they were drinking happily, he himself was only tasting the tea, and did not say much. Jiang Feng poured another cup of wine and said: “This second cup, Lady Faang, I still want to toast you. Thank you for resolving all my troubles that day, and for acknowledging this brat as your friend.” Jiang Feng was referring to when he first left the underworld, and was troubled by the Fang family officials. Faang Xinyao was the one who scolded the officials and had the servants guide him on the road to the capital. Faang Xinyao also picked up his wine cup, but just as she was about to toast, she was stopped by Jiang Feng: “Lady Faang, please wait for a moment, let me toast to the end of the third cup.” Faang Xinyao had no choice but to do so. Jiang Feng then said: “In this third cup, I offer my respect to Lady Faang for you trust me so much throughout this entire time. You do not doubt me, I like the feeling of being trusted.” With that, he drank another cup. Faang Xinyao now raised his wine cup again, and said: “Big Brother Chiang, you have already toasted me three times, so it is time for me to repay you with this cup. I have to thank you for giving me hope during my most difficult time, allowing me to be strong once again. Thank you, Big Brother Chiang. ” Jiang Feng clinked his glass with hers, and the two of them drank another.
Lu Jianfei seemed to be unable to hold back, and said: “Seeing that the two of you are drinking so happily, it seems that I have no choice but to have a taste.” Seeing that Lu Jianfei, who usually treated rules and regulations as life, had let go, Jiang Feng was also very happy in his heart. He immediately poured a cup for Lu Jianfei. Jiang Feng and Faang Xinyao raised their wine cups at the same time and said respectfully: “Master Lu, let us toast you with this.” However, Lu Jianfei waved his hands and said: “I toast to you all, I hope that you can become more mature in the future, and help the Emperor solve his problems. Right now, the Emperor is in his most difficult times, and needs the help of our group, and Faang Xinyao, he also hopes that you can have enough patience and confidence to accomplish this task in one or two days, and that it won’t be possible for you to accomplish it in a single sentence. I also hope that one day, when the emperor saves your father, you and your father will wholeheartedly help the emperor govern the world. Right now in the middle of the court, the emperor still doesn’t have many trusted aides, and there are even fewer capable people. “Come, I will make an exception today. We will drink the next cup.” Jiang Feng, Faang Xinyao, and Lu Jianfei clinked their cups, the three of them drinking the wine at the same time. Lu Jianfei exclaimed: “As expected, it’s been a long time since I’ve tasted the wine outside the palace.” Jiang Feng joked: “Master Lu must have drank quite a lot in the palace, compared to today’s wine, how is it?” Lu Jianfei seemed to be disdainful of those things, and said: “There are indeed many fine wines in the palace, but once you enter the palace, the taste will change. “And today’s wine has a taste that I haven’t tasted in a long time, a taste that I’m familiar with. This is the taste of people in the martial arts world, a wine that belongs to people in the martial arts world. It’s very good, haha.” Seeing Lu Jianfei’s satisfied expression, Jiang Feng could understand his mood. Forget about staying in the palace for so many years, he had even felt tired just by staying in the Virtuous Talent Gathering Hall for such a short period of time. He truly felt light without any official behind him.
For Lu Jianfei, he received a short period of release from his body and mind, as if he had once again regained the feeling of being a constable in the past. On the other hand, Jiang Feng was sighing at the hardships of his life, and thought back to all his friends who had always helped him. Everything was so wonderful. He hoped that such a day would still exist in the future. He also hoped that everything would be over by then …
What about later?
And then we’ll see how it breaks down in the next round.
