Zhu Tian: A journey of spiritual practice starting from Joy of Life

Chapter 48 Ye Ling'er's Challenge
"who!"

Fan Sizhe was startled and his scream almost blew off the roof of the carriage.

"Don't be afraid, it's me!"

After Leng Feibai finished speaking, he turned and looked at Fan Ruoruo.

When Fan Ruoruo saw the newcomer, with a head full of white hair and a face so beautiful it was hard to describe, she instantly thought of something and blurted out, "Brother Feibai, it really is you!"

Leng Feibai nodded and said, "Ruoruo, you have grown up too!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fan Sizhe threw himself into Leng Feibai's arms and looked him up and down.

"Sizhe, what are you doing?"

Leng Feibai resisted the urge to throw the person out and let Fan Sizhe's big face sway in front of him.

"Finally I saw a real person!"

Fan Sizhe quickly said, "Brother Feibai, I've long heard of your great name, and I have something to ask..."

Leng Feibai quickly interrupted him and said, "I know about the bookstore. When you run it, I'll provide you with a few manuscripts!"

"thanks, thanks!"

Fan Sizhe thanked him repeatedly, "Don't worry, Brother Feibai, I will give you the dividends you deserve, and I guarantee you won't miss out on a single penny."

Leng Feibai waved his hand, turned to Fan Ruoruo and said, "Ruoruo, it's not convenient for me to see Fan Xian right now. Please tell him a few things for me!"

Fan Ruoruo nodded. "Brother Feibai, go ahead!" "First, at the poetry gathering tomorrow at Prince Jing's mansion, tell him to be more reserved. Don't rush into the crowd of women the moment he enters. Second, if he doesn't want to be beaten to death by my cane, tell him to think before he acts."

Listening to Leng Feibai's words, Fan Ruoruo felt a little embarrassed, and she gritted her teeth and said that she had taken note of it.

Leng Feibai nodded and turned to say something to Teng Zijing.

But at this moment, Teng Zijing suddenly shouted from outside, "There's a car blocking the road ahead!"

When Fan Ruoruo heard this, she lifted the carriage curtain and looked outside, and found a carriage blocking the road.

Not wanting to cause trouble, Fan Ruoruo quickly said to Teng Zijing, who was driving the carriage, "Let's step back and make way!"

As soon as the words fell, the curtain of the carriage opposite opened, and a pretty girl came into Fan Ruoruo's sight.

"is her"

Fan Ruoruo quickly lowered the curtain and said, "Brother Feibai, it's Ye Ling'er, the girl from the Kyoto garrison. I'm afraid the princess is also in that car!"

"Oh"

Leng Feibai pretended to be ignorant and asked, "Ruoruo, why do you say that?" Fan Ruoruo quickly explained, "Brother Feibai has only been in Kyoto for a short time, so naturally he doesn't know. Ye Ling'er usually doesn't like riding in carriages, she only likes riding horses. But today she unexpectedly changed her mind and took a carriage. And she is a close friend of my brother's fiancée, Lin Wan'er, so the carriage must be Lin Wan'er's. Now that my brother is not in the carriage, what should we do?"

Leng Feibai lifted the curtain and looked around. Noticing that there weren't many people around, he gritted his teeth and said, "Leave it to me. Ruoruo, keep an eye on Fan Sizhe and don't let him say anything nonsense!"

After saying that, Leng Feibai took out a bamboo hat, covered his white hair, jumped off the carriage, and came to the middle of the road.

At the same time, Ye Ling'er, dressed in red, also came to the opposite side of Leng Feibai.

Upon seeing Leng Feibai, Ye Ling'er said disdainfully, "You are Fan Xian, Si Nanbo's illegitimate son!"

Listening to Ye Ling'er's words, Leng Feibai didn't bother wasting time with this unruly young lady. He raised his hand and saluted, "My name is Leng Feibai, and I'm Fan Xian's sworn brother. Nice to meet you, Miss Ye!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Linger's pupils shrank, and she looked him up and down and said, "You are Leng Feibai, the Leng Feibai who killed Tian Kedu in Qingzhou!"

"shush"

Leng Feibai quickly made a hushed gesture, signaling Ye Ling'er to keep quiet. Ye Ling'er's expression suddenly became ecstatic, and she put on airs, saying, "I've heard that Master Leng is an exceptional martial artist. Could you please teach me a few moves?"

"Miss Ye!"

Leng Feibai pointed at the carriage behind him and said through gritted teeth, "Shouldn't we talk about business first?"

Ye Ling'er immediately thought of Lin Wan'er behind her and quickly lowered her hands, saying, "Mr. Leng, I'm here with my best friend Lin Wan'er to see Fan Xian. Could you please let him come out and see me?"

After hearing this, Leng Feibai shouted towards Lin Wan'er's carriage, "Princess Lin, my name is Leng Feibai, and I'm Fan Xian's sworn brother. I have some questions, but could I please come closer and answer them?"

Ye Ling'er was very dissatisfied after hearing this, and her favorable impression of Leng Feibai also decreased a little. When she was about to refute, Lin Wan'er's voice came from the carriage behind her.

"It's okay, Mr. Leng, come here!"

After hearing this, Ye Ling'er didn't say anything and had to let Leng Feibai come to the outside of Lin Wan'er's carriage.

"My princess, do you still remember the fried chicken legs under the incense table in the side hall of the Qing Temple?"

Lin Wan'er, sitting in the carriage, was stunned by these words. Leng Feibai continued, "I know the princess has questions in her mind. The details will become clear tomorrow when she meets Fan Xian in person at the Prince Jing's Palace poetry gathering."

Lin Wan'er was no fool. She guessed something from Leng Feibai's few words and asked tentatively, "Master Leng, could it be that the man I saw in the side hall of the Qing Temple that day was Fan Xian?"

"The princess is truly intelligent!"

Leng Feibai smiled and said, "Ever since meeting the princess, Fan Xian has lost his appetite. He even treasured the chicken leg like a treasure. The princess can ask him for details at the poetry gathering at Prince Jing's mansion tomorrow."

"Why do we have to wait until the poetry gathering at Prince Jing's Mansion?"

Lin Wan'er couldn't help but ask, "Isn't Fan Xian in the carriage?" Leng Feibai looked around and whispered, "Since the princess is engaged to Fan Xian, it's not impossible to tell the princess. Fan Xian has some personal matters to attend to at the moment and is not in the carriage for the time being. Please keep this a secret and don't leak it."

Lin Wan'er felt a pity after hearing this and quickly said, "Sorry to bother Master Leng. Ling'er, let's go back!"

After hearing this, Ye Ling'er bit her lip and said, "Wan'er, you should go back first. I have something I want to talk to Master Leng about!"

Looking at Ye Ling'er's expression, Lin Wan'er also thought of something and lowered her voice, "Master Leng, Ling'er has wanted to challenge you to a duel many years ago. Please show mercy, Master Leng. Don't hurt her!"

"I'll pay attention!"

Leng Feibai couldn't help but twitch his lips after hearing this, and answered silently.

After watching Lin Wan'er's carriage leave, Ye Ling'er walked over to Leng Feibai and said, "Master Leng, I've known you for a long time. Would you mind exchanging a few words with me?"

Leng Feibai sighed and said, "Okay, but there are too many people in Kyoto. If you want to fight, how about we go outside the city later?"

Ye Ling'er didn't refuse. "Okay, then I'll wait for you in the wasteland outside the west city gate. If you don't show up in an hour, I'll go to the Fan Mansion to find you!"

After saying that, Ye Ling'er chased after Lin Wan'er's carriage.

Leng Feibai shook his head, sighed, turned around and walked out of the carriage.

"Ruoruo, the matter is resolved. When Fan Xian comes back, remember to tell him what happened just now."

Fan Ruoruo replied in the carriage, "Don't worry, Brother Feibai, I've got it in mind!"

Leng Feibai nodded, turned to look at Teng Zijing and said, "Old Teng, I want to remind you of two things. First, don't forget that you are a dead man now. There is no need to walk around in public. If you are discovered, you and Fan Xian will be guilty of deceiving the emperor, and you will have more than ten heads left!"

As soon as these words came out, Teng Zijing rolled his eyes and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!"

"You have a ball!"

Leng Feibai cursed inwardly and continued, "The second thing is, your wife and child are hidden by Wang Qinian. If you want to know where they are, you can go with Fan Xian to put them in a sack!"
