Yu Rourou arched her eyebrows and asked charmingly, "If, I mean if, that person takes a fancy to a withered woman like me, will you send me back this time?"
Cai Junchen looked straight at her, his eyes firm. He said in a low voice, "In the past, it was to survive. If there is still such a day in Beiliang, I will not send you back even if you beat me to death. As a person, you can't always go back. "
Yu Rourou smiled and wrinkled her nose playfully. She did not look like a mature woman, but more like an innocent girl. She said angrily, "You know he won't, so you purposely said nice things for me to hear, right?"
Cai Junchen reached out and lifted a lock of her hair. His eyes were red as he said, "Wife, I'm sorry for all these years."
Yu Rourou suddenly turned around and walked up the steps. Her hands were clasped behind her back, her steps light and agile.

In the carriage, Cao Wei was hiding in a corner furthest away from the young girl who was busy applying makeup. He sneered at Xu Fengnian, "Oh, the one surnamed Xu, I didn't see it before. You're really good at buying people's hearts."
Hsu Fengnian squinted and said, "You should have known when I bribed your martial brothers to beat you up, right?"
Cao Wei, whose scar had been exposed, held his knife in one hand. "I really want to cut you?"
Hsu Fengnian added fuel to the fire. "When we get to Longqing County, I'll have to give your knife away. Now hurry up and touch it a few more times."
Cao Wei said angrily, "Don't even think about it!"
Hsu Fengnian smiled and said, "If you don't give it to me, can't I snatch it?"
Cao Wei was about to speak when Hsu Fengnian reached out with two hands and bent his fingers. "Out of the ten thousand elite cavalry, only nine thousand are left."
Cao Wei was like a hungry tiger pouncing on a sheep. He shamelessly grabbed Hsu Fengnian's hand that only had four fingers left. He smiled mischievously and said, "Surnamed Xu, Hsu Fengnian, Great Master Xu, Ancestor Xu! We gentlemen keep our promises. We can give you twenty thousand for ten thousand, but we can't give you only nine thousand. How can we be short in business? We pay attention to honesty! You and I are heroes, we cherish heroes, we must be heroic! "
Hsu Fengnian put on a fake smile and said, "If you want me to take back those thousand riders, that's fine too. Go away, don't be an eyesore."
Cao Wei laughed dryly, "The carriage is only this big."
Hsu Fengnian pointed at the curtain of the carriage. Cao Wei immediately rolled out of the carriage and lifted the curtain to poke his head out. "Don't forget, it's ten thousand, not nine thousand! If you lose even one soldier or horse, I'll get mad at you. "
As a result, Shortie Cao forgot about the existence of the bad-tempered killer girl and was sent flying by a bronze mirror that appeared out of nowhere. Cao Wei didn't even dare to fart. He sat beside coachman Xu Yanbing and grimaced. Bored to death, he played the same old tune and asked the world's top master with a smile, "Master Xu, do you think I'm more handsome than the one surnamed Xu?"
Xu Yanbing remained indifferent.
Cao Wei refused to give up and asked, "It doesn't matter if you don't admit it. I'm taller and more powerful than the one surnamed Xu. You should at least nod your head, right?"
Xu Yanbing still turned a deaf ear.
Cao Wei crawled to Xu Yanbing's side and put his arm around his shoulder impolitely. He said seriously, "I know you're a powerful master, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to chase Hong Jingyan and Zhong Liang all the way to the border of Gu Sai Prefecture. But I'm not bad either. I don't get along with the one surnamed Xu, but I regret not having met you earlier. I have something to tell you first …"
Xu Yanbing laughed in a low voice, "Are you trying to say that I, Cao Wei, am uneducated and inexperienced? Don't cheat me of my money. If you cheat me of my money, I'll have a good temper and won't beat you. I'm handsome, tall, and powerful. Don't lie to me. If you dare to lie to me, I'll definitely beat you to death. "
Cao Wei exclaimed, "Did the one surnamed Xu tell you all this? Motherf * cker, this bastard must have said a lot of things to ruin my reputation. Master Xu, don't believe that guy. The one surnamed Xu doesn't have any other skills, but he's good at cheating men and women. I'm not convinced. He's absolutely a master! "
Xu Yanbing, a cold-hearted person, didn't know whether to laugh or cry. But he didn't let Cao Wei move his paw away. He said flatly, "The King of Beiliang didn't say much. He just asked me to go to the Western Regions with you."
Cao Wei bit his lips and remained silent.
In the carriage, Hsu Fengnian was talking to Yang Guangdou about the Fish-dragon Gang that had risen in Lingzhou. This gang was now very rich and had snowballed from a third-rate force in Lingzhou to one of the top gangs. As for how the Fish-dragon Gang made money, outsiders only knew that they were in the business of selling beasts at the border. Hsu Fengnian told the old man that the Fish-dragon Gang would be involved in horse smuggling with several big Horse Gangs. Naturally, they wouldn't be selling mature horses that were equivalent to war horses, but wild horses captured from the grassland. No matter if they were young or strong, the Fish-dragon Gang would buy them at a high price. At the moment, many Horse Gangs at the border had launched a "horse trafficking" business. However, they didn't directly contact the Fish-dragon Gang, but sold to Horse Gangs who had ties with the Fish-dragon Gang. Naturally, the price was greatly reduced. Hearing this, the old man said with a smile, "Is it useless to use such a stupid method to increase the number of mature horses in Beiliang?"
Hsu Fengnian shook his head and said with a smile, "Geographically, the gains and losses of Beiliang and Beimang should be counted as double. These ownerless wild horses are more or less the same. If the number is doubled, it can't be underestimated. Besides, Xu Xiao told me a long time ago that running a household is nothing more than three years for the new and three years for the old, and three years for mending. Mending is the most important thing to test the skills of the head of the household. Now, Beiliang needs me to take care of a lot of things. I only have one goal. As long as I can turn money into the fighting power of Beiliang, I will do it even if it's just a copper coin. As long as it doesn't affect the important business, I will do it. "
Yang Guangdou sighed and said, "It's Beiliang's fortune that Your Highness has this kind of heart."
Xu Fengnian suddenly saw that the chuckling girl had put on some makeup and put two hairpins on her head. After putting down the bronze mirror, she sat upright and still and gave him a smile that she probably thought was a woman's flirtatious.
Yang Guangdou was shocked. He swallowed and couldn't bear to look at that face. He quickly turned his head and picked up a book.
The old man thought that it was really difficult for this little girl. This must be more difficult than assassinating a Celestial Phenomenon master.
Hsu Fengnian's willpower had been honed by the girl who put half a catty of rouge on her face. He still had a smile on his face. He bent down and forced the girl's purposefully raised orchid fingers back. Then, he used his fingers to gently scrape off some of the overly thick rouge.
Cao Wei lifted the curtain at this time and saw the "charming" face that was always stiff. Cao Wei was scared out of his wits. He made a gesture of poking his eyes and whispered, "Damn it, each one is more ruthless than the other!"
Hsu Fengnian asked softly, "Where's the big cat that likes to eat bamboo?"
The girl lowered her eyes and said, "It's dead."
Hsu Fengnian helped her fix the two hairpins that were originally crooked. He rubbed her head and said, "Then I'll ask someone to find you another one from the Western Shu bamboo forest."
The girl who once pierced Wang Mingyin's chest with a hand knife and kicked Liu Haoshi's head with her feet for fun, sniffled and shook her head.
The old man tactfully left the carriage and sat beside Xu Yanbing with Cao Wei. Shortie Cao gloated and said, "Uncle Yang, you were also driven out?"
Hahaha.
He laughed three times.
This time, Cao Wei learned his lesson and jumped out of the carriage. As expected, a slender arm directly penetrated the wall of the carriage. If Cao Wei didn't escape, his heart would be cut.
