Chapter 175: Xincao enters Tianqi, Sikong Changfeng bids farewell to the school
Just as Chen Ru and Sikong Changfeng were discussing spearmanship in the courtyard, Xie Xuan, wearing a blue shirt and carrying a book, walked out from the inner courtyard.
"Xiao Xuan'er, where are you going?"
Chen Ru heard Xie Xuan's footsteps and turned around to ask.
Xie Xuan walked up to Chen Ru and bowed:
"Uncle Master, I have been in the academy for some time now, and I have read all the books in the academy..."
"Now it's time to leave!"
Chen Ru looked at Xie Xuan, who seemed to always be a scholar, and said with some relief:
"Excellent, but Xiao Xuan'er, you're moving too fast!"
"There are more than thousands of books in the school. In just over two months, you've read them all?"
Xie Xuan nodded and smiled:
"Excluding the portion I've already read, the remaining essentials are less than 1,500 volumes."
"Two months or so, reading from sunrise to sunset, isn't that long!"
Sikong Changfeng was shocked when he heard this, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said:
"One thousand five hundred copies?!"
"Thank you, Master Xuan, for lending me that spear manual. I've only just finished reading it roughly in the past month. And you've actually finished reading all 1,500 volumes in your collection in just two months..."
Xie Xuan walked up to Sikong Changfeng and bowed, saying:
"Don't be surprised, Sikong Changfeng!"
"You and I are the same. My wish is to read all the books in the world, and your wish is to become a master of spears. I hope that we can both achieve our wishes in the near future."
Sikong Changfeng: "From what Master Xie Xuan said, are you leaving now?"
Xie Xuan smiled upon hearing this and said aloud, "We met by chance, but we must part ways! I've finished reading my book, so it's time for me to leave!"
After saying this, he bid farewell to Chen Ru and left the school under the gaze of Sikong Changfeng.
After Xie Xuan left, Chen Ru shook his head and sighed:
"Xiao Xuan'er's talent is so high that ordinary people can't see it. If he can use the same state of mind he has when reading to practice martial arts, he will become a master who is unrivaled in the world in time!"
Sikong Changfeng nodded, agreeing deeply:
"Sir, you are right. Even if Master Xie Xuan doesn't learn martial arts, he can still be the best in the world with his knowledge!"
Chen Ru looked at the direction Xie Xuan left from afar, and after a while he asked:
"Sikong Changfeng, I have a question I've always wanted to ask you."
"Sir, please speak!"
"You and Baili Dongjun, one is a son of a marquisate, the other is a wanderer; you are from two different worlds. Why did you become friends with him?"
Sikong Changfeng threw his spear to the ground, his eyes lit up:
"Indeed, I have seen many young men from royal families, and they are all dandy and dirty!"
"But Baili Dongjun is different from them!"
Chen Ru: "How is it different?"
Sikong Changfeng looked into the distance and said leisurely:
"He is a clear-minded person, and he has an unchanging youthful heart!"
Sikong Changfeng finished speaking, and before Chen Ru could speak, he pointed his gun at him and said:
"Thank you, sir, for teaching me how to practice spearmanship these days! Sikong Changfeng will surely remember your kindness. Master Xie Xuan has already embarked on his journey, and it's time for me to embark on my own journey!"
Chen Ru looked at the young man in front of him with gentle eyes:
"So when are you planning to leave?"
"Then it's now!"
……
Apocalypse City, Suzaku Street.
"You just used that insane poison again, didn't you, Wen boy..."
The two of them easily passed through the Suzaku Gate and walked on the busy street, leading their horses. Xin Baicao finally asked after holding it in for a long time.
Wen Yanzhao smiled slyly:
"Crazy? That thing is very expensive!"
"I can't bear to give it to these soldiers. I want to save it for big things in the future!"
Xin Baicao glanced at his rather flamboyant cloak and said teasingly:
"You haven't also practiced that three-character classic trick of warming the pot of wine, have you?"
Unexpectedly, Wen Yanzhao suddenly turned around, shook his cloak and said with a smile
"Three Character Classic?!"
"I don't just have three words, I have hundreds or even thousands of words! And it's ten times more toxic than my uncle's!"
Xin Baicao shuddered when she heard this, and quickly took a few steps towards Wen Yanzhao, carefully brushing off her clothes.
"Hiss... As expected, there is no normal person in the Wen family!"
While the two were talking, Wen Yanzhao had already spotted the figures of the Shadow Sect members lurking among the houses and buildings.
No need to guess, everyone knows who sent it.
I think what happened in Guixi City should have spread to Tianqi City.
After such a big thing happened, I'm sure old Tai'an in the imperial city will have a headache for a few days!
Xin Baicao looked around and admired the bustling street scenes of Tianqi City as he walked.
After walking for a quarter of an hour, Xin Baicao realized that this was not the way to the pharmacy, so he quickly asked:
"Hey, Wen, where are you taking me? Stop! This is not the way to the Mu Family Pharmacy!"
Wen Yanzhao walked in front and said without looking back:
"Who said I was going to the Mu family medicine shop? Aren't you going to look for your beloved disciple?"
"I'll take you to him now!"
Xin Baicao muttered:
"Then why is this street...the scent of cosmetics becoming increasingly stronger?!"
Seeing that the first brothel in Tianqi City, Baihualou, was thirty steps ahead, Wen Yanzhao stopped and turned around with a chuckle:
"Yeah, have you forgotten what I told you before?"
"Your apprentice has fallen in love!"
Xin Baicao narrowed her eyes, looked at the sign of Baihua Tower in the sunlight, and then said angrily:
"This bastard, I thought he was in love with some girl from Tianqi City, but it turns out he's just been into sensual pleasures!"
"It's too much, it's too much!"
Wen Yanzhao listened to Xin Baicao complaining about Sikong Changfeng, took out a small pocket bottle from his arms, pulled out the cork and poured it into his mouth.
While chewing the poison, he replied:
"Just wait here. Your good disciple will come to see his sweetheart soon!"
……
Qiandong City, Zhenxi Marquis Mansion.
"Crown Princess, Crown Princess! Young Master Wen has sent someone!"
Ling'er, holding a letter in her hand, ran straight into Wen Luoyu's bedroom.
Wen Luoyu was concentrating on embroidering a long gown at this time. On the front of the gown was a picture of phoenix tung flowers, which was exactly the phoenix tung tree planted by the Confucian immortal.
The needle and thread in her hands flew up and down. Since she learned needlework, her skills have become more and more proficient.
Hearing Ling'er's cry, Wen Luoyu carefully put down her needlework, looked up and asked:
"Zhao'er sent someone? Who is it?"
Ling'er patted her chest lightly and handed the envelope to Wen Luoyu while panting:
"It's a mother and daughter, from Guixi City in Shu, and they have a letter for the Crown Prince's Consort!"
Wen Luoyu took the letter and opened it, only then did she understand the people Wen Yanzhao had saved in Guixi City, as well as the mother and daughter.
"I understand. Lead the mother and daughter to the backyard and ask the housekeeper to arrange a bedroom for them to stay in first."
"Ling'er, is the prince in the mansion right now?"
Ling'er shook her head:
"The prince is on duty again today. He went to the barracks early in the morning and won't be back until the evening!"
Wen Luoyu nodded and put away the envelope:
"I understand. Go and make the arrangements! Tell Rui'er to come and pack up the needlework and fabrics. I'm going to the main hall to see the old marquis!"
Ling'er bowed:
"Ling'er understands, I'll do it right away."
Wen Luoyu put Wen Yanzhao's letter into his sleeve and went straight to the main hall where Baili Luochen was.
