Seeing that the two horses were killed by Xu Longxiang, Xu Weixiong asked the crossbowmen to bring two more horses. Ugly was not suitable to show himself, so Xu Weixiong sent him to hide in the dark. Blue Bird drove the carriage. Hsu Fengnian sat in the carriage while Xu Weixiong rode the horse outside.
Xu Beizhi sat in the same room as Xu Longxiang, his entire body feeling uneasy. Right now, Ren Tu's second son's infamy had spread far and wide in Northern Mang. No one doubted his ability to break through enemy lines. Xu Beizhi was truly scared that a single word of disagreement would cause his limbs to be torn apart like a grasshopper's legs by this withered yellow youth.
Hsu Fengnian lifted the curtain and said, "I originally wanted to enter through Toppling Horse Pass. Which way do you want to go?"
Xu Weixiong said calmly, "I'm just giving you a ride. Father gave me tens of thousands of cavalrymen, not to send them to their deaths."
Hsu Fengnian deliberately ignored the innuendo in his words and said with a smile, "When we part, I'll give you a gift."
Xu Weixiong did not comment.
She walked for seven to eight miles, stopped the horse and said, "Although there are no more than a thousand Beimang soldiers near Gu Maolong, there are still many horse stables left."
Hsu Fengnian got off the carriage and handed Xu Weixiong a bag. She said indifferently, "It's okay. Other than Blue Bird and Ugly, there's also an otherworldly item wandering a hundred miles away. It has the Finger Mysterious Realm."
Xu Weixiong hung the cotton bag on the side of the saddle. Hsu Fengnian pleaded, "Don't throw it away without taking a look."
Xu Weixiong hesitated and did not rush to turn the horse around.
Hsu Fengnian was familiar with his second sister's cold temperament. He said, "It's the head of the Fifth Raccoon."
Xu Weixiong frowned and said, "The Mountain Master of Bing Ti Mountain, Dong Zhuo's father-in-law?"
Hsu Fengnian nodded.
Xu Weixiong asked, "You and a few others succeeded in the sneak attack?"
Hsu Fengnian was speechless.
Xu Beizhi, who got off the carriage with Hsu Fengnian but stood far away, said softly, "Second Commandery Princess, His Royal Highness killed the fifth raccoon by himself. I, Xu Beizhi, can testify. "
Xu Weixiong sneered and said, "How did the King of North Courtyard, Xu Huainan's concubine's grandson change his master? When do you plan to go to Liyang imperial court and become a slave of three surnames? "
As expected of Xu Weixiong, who knew Beimang like the back of his hand. Xu Beizhi did not explain anything to her relentless criticism.
Hsu Fengnian tried to smooth things over and said, "Second Sister, can you not scare Ju Zi? He's a good person. Not long ago, he even praised your poetry and said that he wanted to compare notes with you. "
Xu Weixiong patted the ancient sword at his waist and said with a smile, "Compare notes? Compare notes on swordsmanship? Didn't you tell him that I like to compare notes with scholars and common people? "
Xu Beizhi had truly experienced the rudeness of Beiliang's second commandery princess.
Hsu Fengnian said helplessly, "Alright, alright." He patted the horse's butt lightly and let Xu Weixiong gallop away.
Hsu Fengnian and Xu Beizhi looked at each other and smiled. They both felt relieved.
Xu Beizhi sighed softly and said, "He has the demeanor of Empress Murong."
Hsu Fengnian hugged his neck and scolded jokingly, "How dare you talk about my sister like that. Do you want to die?"
The scholar, who was almost out of breath from being strangled, shouted, "How is this belittling?"
Hsu Fengnian let go of his hand and sat in the carriage with him. "You'll know in the future."
After sitting down, Hsu Fengnian threw the sword case to the black-clothed youth who was grinning from ear to ear. "Huang Man'er, there are three swords in there. I'll give them to you. Didn't you get stabbed by a willow branch? Next time you see him, return the three swords to him! "
Xu Longxiang held the sword case and laughed foolishly.
Hsu Fengnian turned his head to Xu Beizhi and said, "Beiliang Palace has an abundant collection of books. If there's anything you like, just take it. It'll be your personal collection. Treat it as my meeting gift to you. How about it?"
Xu Beizhi smiled sincerely and said, "It's enough!"
Hsu Fengnian thought for a while and said, "When we reach the Prince's Mansion, why don't you change your name?"
Xu Beizhi shook his head and thanked Hsu Fengnian for his good intentions. It was obviously not wise to parade around Beiliang with the identity of Xu Huainan's grandson. However, there were some things that Xu Beizhi did not want to shrink back from.
Hsu Fengnian said regretfully, "Xu Juzi. What a delightful name."
Xu Beizhi reminded him, "Your Highness, you don't have Diwu Raccoon's head anymore."
Hsu Fengnian said, "Oh," and snapped his fingers.
Not long after, a slender, snow-white wrist reached into the carriage curtain. When Xu Beizhi saw the happy face of the otherworldly item in the red robe, he had goosebumps all over his body.
Xu Beizhi forced a smile and flattered him against his will, "Your Highness is confident in everything. You are worthy of being the heir of a vassal state."
Hsu Fengnian waved his hand and the otherworldly item's Elixir Infant floated away from the carriage. Then, he held Xu Beizhi's hand and said with a smile, "You and I admire each other so much. It's a pity we didn't meet earlier."
The corner of Xu Beizhi's mouth twitched and he whispered, "Your Highness, did you also say the words' a pity we didn't meet earlier 'to Diwu Raccoon?"
Hsu Fengnian smiled and slapped Xu Beizhi to the ground. Then, he said softly, "I like to walk the same path again. They say that there's no turning back in this world. Taking advantage of the opportunity to walk the path, it's very comfortable."
Without the otherworldly item's intimidation, Xu Beizhi became more courageous and said, "Your Highness, didn't you have a secret conversation with that retainer when you went out earlier? Didn't you want him to arrange something so that you could secretly meet Youzhou's Guyi Commandant, Huangfu Qiong?"
Hsu Fengnian didn't say yes and only asked curiously, "You even know Huangfu Qiong?"
