Chapter 29

  The little episode in the tea house came to a smooth end. Yue Tianchou left first, while Bai Yutang stayed behind.

  "Bai Yutang, you see that Pang Yun has brought people over, so now you have even less of a need to escort me into the capital." It's just that I want you to owe me a debt, and when the opportunity is right, I'll settle accounts with you, principal and interest included.

  "Bai Mou wants to go to Kaifeng Prefecture to find Zhan Zhao." But it's not on the way.

  Little Phoenix Maiden felt that the emotions between cats and mice were not something ordinary people could understand. Despite being natural enemies, they still kept looking for each other, was this self-abuse or what?

  Bai Yutang, I never thought you'd be an M-type attribute.

  Oho ho ho......

  Little Phoenix Maiden was delighted by her own inner drama, laughing so hard that her almond-shaped eyes narrowed into slits.

  Pang Yu: Third sister is probably up to no good again, and that smile of hers has some inexplicable discord.

  Xiaohe: Where has Miss wandered off to this time?

  "What's so funny, miss?" White Yutang asked directly, with a questioning mind.

  Lü Xiaofeng said a phrase with great Zen implications: "Laugh at the laughable things in the world."

  Just then, several people were shocked.

  Pang Yu: You're just like Third Sister, you can burn incense in front of the true Buddha and still ask with a straight face and a clear conscience.

  Xiaohe: Miss, isn't it bad for you to always tease and provoke Baidaxia like this?

  Bai Yutang's sword eyebrows rose, and his hands almost couldn't help but press on the hilt. In the end, he inserted the sword into the ground with a "hiss" sound, saying: "This debt will be settled by Master Wu with that cat." A wife's debt is her husband's responsibility.

  Pang Yu: It seems like something is off.

  Xiaohe: My missus doesn't care at all about this, it's really meaningless.

  Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said: "The accounts between Bai Wuyi and Zhan Huwei are really unclear."

  Often heard you yelling "Zhan Zhao, Wu Ye remembered", "Zhan Zhao, wait for Wu Ye"... How does it feel to be a proud and arrogant queen?

  Wow!

  "How can Fifth Master hear this and be so biased?" Bai Yutang looked at her suspiciously.

  "You're too suspicious, it's not good." Little Phoenix Maiden said with a serious and innocent face.

  Xiaohe said: It's really not Bai Daxia being overly suspicious, I have the same feeling too.

  The young master Anle looked at Jinmao Mouse, who was being teased by his third sister and couldn't get angry, and sincerely said in his heart - That's quite refreshing!

  At first, Father was so angry with this mouse that he almost vomited blood. Now, it's really a turn of fortune and a reunion in the mountains and waters.

  The young master An Le is happily watching...

  "Can't you get through a day without getting angry at Old Man Wu?" Bai Yutang was so angry that he found it amusing.

  Lu Xiaofeng said solemnly: "Fifth Master, you really wronged me. Look at my sincere eyes, what I said is all from the heart."

  Pang Yu turned his face away.

  The little millet lowers its head.

  Bai Yutang was truly delighted this time. How could she be so playful and mischievous? It made people want to get angry, but they couldn't even get angry for long.

  "Grandfather is getting angry with you, but it makes him look petty."

  Lu Xiaofeng secretly ridiculed: It turns out that you really think you're not petty? She simply wanted to write a "yield" character for a certain little white mouse. This is the typical case of being overly self-satisfied.

  Xiao Feng didn't bother to comment on Bai Xiao Wu's character anymore and simply ignored him.

  The mountain does not go to the water, the water comes to the mountain.

  Xiao Feng's anger had subsided, but Bai Yutang couldn't help himself and went to provoke her again.

  The mouse with the golden hair asked her playfully: "Where is your jade pendant, miss?"

  "Isn't it?" Lu Xiaofeng picked up a white jade hollow pendant hanging from his waist and showed it to him.

  That expression, that tone, those movements, are just like the real thing!

  Xiaohe is simply admired to the point of being speechless.

  Bai Yutang was also taken aback for a moment.

  He couldn't help but smile wryly, this girl - he was really convinced!

  You can never guess what her reaction will be!

  "Pang Yu, I want to ride a horse."

  Pang Yu was taken aback for a moment before reacting, "Sister, you'd better take the horse carriage." Hasn't this topic been changed too abruptly?

  "No." Little Phoenix Maiden resolutely refused, "Brother, you don't know how suffocating it is to ride in a horse carriage. You say the scenery outside is beautiful with green mountains and clear water, but what can you see from inside the carriage?"

  "Sister, but you're wearing women's clothes now."

  "Who says women can't ride horses? The Yangmen female generals used to fight and kill enemies on the battlefield."

  Pang Yu suddenly felt that he might have made a mistake by coming to pick her up, as if he had deliberately delivered himself to be bullied by her.

  "The horses are countless." Anle Hou tried to struggle.

  Little Phoenix Maiden raised an eyebrow and pointed at the horse carriage, saying: "You go sit in the horse carriage."

  Pang Yu: "......"

  Bai Yutang had already hugged his sword back into his arms and was watching the commotion from the side.

  "Miss, don't make things difficult for Young Master Hou."

  Lu Xiaofeng smiled faintly at Pang Yu, "Younger brother, you've traveled far and wide to get here, why don't you take a good rest in the carriage? I'm taking care of you, you shouldn't refuse my kindness, should you?"

  Pang Yu thought: I refuse, are you happy? If you're unhappy, I still have good fruit to eat.

  "Of course I wouldn't refuse San Jie's kind intentions." Recognizing the situation is a sign of greatness.

  "Miss, how can you ride a horse dressed like that?"

  Pang Yu nodded immediately and echoed, "Right, sister, it's really not good for you to ride a horse like this now."

  "It's simple." With Little Phoenix's words, she lowered her head and stretched out her hand to take the dagger and cut off the hem of her skirt twice. Then, with confidence, she smiled and said, "It's done."

  Anle Hou could only watch as his third sister sprang onto her horse with a lithe movement, her skirt flying up in the air...

  Xiaohe couldn't help but cover his forehead with his hand.

  Bai Yutang laughed so hard his shoulders were shaking like crazy.

  "Xiaohe, want to come ride with me?" On the horseback, the refreshing and elegant Lu Xiaofeng didn't forget to invite his little servant Xiaohe to go wild together.

  "Let's take a taxi instead."

  "It's really cool to ride a horse." Someone continued to tempt.

  "Alright, sister, you ride it yourself," said An Le Hou decisively. "Don't bring your personal maid along and ruin her too, or else you'll really be unable to see in the future."

  Lu Xiaofeng kicked him with a very unpleasant foot.

  Pang Yun dodged nimbly to one side and said, "Sister, be careful." This was really too careless about her image.

  Thinking of this, Anle Hou couldn't help but glance around at the guards who followed him, and then looked again at the brocade-haired mouse.

  Bai Yutang raised an eyebrow in disagreement.

  To describe their relationship in a very common phrase, it is - they can't stand each other.

  "Pang Yu, throw me a whip." The man on horseback shouted.

  Pang Yu could only throw the whip in his hand to her.

  Lu Xiaofeng smiled and whipped his horse to gallop in one direction.

  Without needing to be told, a group of guards automatically followed him.

  Lu Xiaofeng rode the horse for a short distance, then turned back, jumped off the horse and walked towards the people sitting in the teahouse drinking tea, saying: "Pang Yu, this horse is not bad."

  Pang Yu heard this and smiled: "When San Jie returns to Beijing, I'll give you a good one."

  "It's settled with just one word."

  Pang Yu looked at her outstretched palm, smiled, and stretched out his hand to make a pact with her.

  Lu Xiaofeng smiled and sat down beside him, casually putting the whip on the table.

  Xiaohe poured her a cup of tea.

  "Are Dad and Mom doing well?"

  "Alright, mother is thinking of you and still worrying about your safety." Pang Yu said frankly.

  "I've been used to setbacks since I was young, and I'm not a flower in the greenhouse. Mother is really worrying too much. Father is still more stable, knowing that I don't need it."

  Pang Yu didn't dare tell the truth, if it weren't for fear that you wouldn't give him face and drive him away, his father would be even more proactive in sending people over.

  Bai Yutang was a bit puzzled in her heart, as she had always addressed Pang Taishi as "義父" (adoptive father) in the past, and sometimes even directly called him "Taishi". Why was she now calling him "爹" (father) with such familiarity? Looking at Anle Hou's expression, this seemed to be a normal occurrence, but what was going on?

  "Sister, are you going back to Beijing?"

  "Uh-huh."

  "That's what I call a warm welcome."

  Lu Xiaofeng's eyes rolled around, and he leaned in towards Pang Yu, discussing with him: "Younger brother, it's rare that we both don't have official business on our hands this time. Why not go somewhere else to take a stroll?" Let's avoid the Qinglong Pearl case for now. Although Pang Yu wasn't beheaded by Old Bao in Chenzhou, and Tai Shi didn't become sworn enemies with Old Bao, considering Tai Shi really doesn't get along with his idol, it's better not to watch them fight each other.

  Otherwise, when the time comes and both sides are at odds with each other, helping is not right, but not helping is also not right.

  It doesn't matter in the end, it's just a draw, a waste of energy.

  It's unbearable to watch, the process is too cruel. I remember when I watched Xue Xiao Mao being beheaded by Wang Chao or Ma Han, one of those two idiots, it was simply torturous.

  Unless necessary, Lu Xiaofeng expressed that she didn't want to affect the normal progress of the plot at all. She just wanted to live a low-key life in this time and space, and really had no great ambition to change the course of history.

  After all, Xiaofeng still believes in the positive energy of historical revisionism.

  She thinks that history will not fundamentally change because of someone who should not have appeared, leading to a deviation from the original direction of historical development. It is only possible for some minor changes that do not affect the overall situation to occur in local and subtle places, which is the benevolence of positive energy in time and space.

  This proposal made Young Master Anle very moved.

  "Brother, what are you still thinking about? We're not going to commit a crime."

  Pang Yu rubbed his forehead, "Sis, can you tone down your words a bit?"

  Pang Yu - "Xiao Feng girl stared at him."

  "Alright, where are we going?" An Le Xiao Hou Ye said without any dignity. He couldn't afford to offend this sister, so he just agreed.

  The next moment, Little Phoenix was smiling and picked up a chopstick from the chopstick holder on the table, dipped it in the tea water in the cup, and drew something on the table.

  "Look, now we're probably around this place, here is..."

  Pang Yu listened very seriously as she analyzed it.

  Bai Yutang looked at her in surprise as she drew a simple topographic map.

  "Going from here, the distance is the shortest, should save the most time."

  "You're silly, there are two mountains in between, it looks like saving time, but what if something happens in the mountain and it's delayed instead. So, it's better to take a detour and be safe than sorry."

  "That's also true." Pang Yu was convinced.

  "Before we set off, let's write a letter to the authorities and report our itinerary. I think that should be fine."

  "When you go back, your mother will definitely scold you."

  "As a filial child, we are considered to have fulfilled our duties just by being mentioned." Little Phoenix did not change her mind about returning to the capital.

  "When the time comes, I won't take the blame for you." The young master of An Le declared in advance.

  "Don't worry, I'll take care of this myself, sister. If Father and Mother enforce family law, you just bear the blame."

  Pang Yu: "......" Sister, did I hear wrong or did you say it wrong?

  "What are you looking at? You're a boy, of course you should take responsibility for your family and sisters. Who else will if not you?"

  Pang Yu: "......" This is really my own sister.

  Bai Yutang: "......" Can he say that his three views have been destroyed again?
