The snow was unwilling to stop, as if a naughty child was crying non-stop.
In the backyard of the Demawei Post House, the Dragon Claw Locust Tree was covered in white.
The young kamikaze built a snowman in the courtyard and used two pieces of charcoal as eyes.
Hsu Fengnian saw Xuanyuan Qingfeng rocking back and forth on the rattan chair. He didn't want her to be happy alone, so he asked Tong Zhuyi to bring another rattan chair into the courtyard. The two of them chatted while lying under the eaves.
When Tong Ziliang brought the chair over, Hsu Fengnian asked a few questions about the sword duel between Lu Baijie, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War. He was lying on the chair, muttering to himself, "Surnamed Wen, carrying a wooden sword. Don't tell me you're Wen Hua?"
Xuanyuan Qingfeng sneered. "Him?"
Hsu Fengnian was unhappy. He squinted. "What's wrong with Wen Hua? When the three of us met at the lantern market, I didn't even have the strength to truss a chicken. How are you any better? What about me now? I stole the so-called Confucian Noble Spirit to nurture my saber intent, then borrowed the strength of my Nascent Soul to tear two thousand feet apart on the imperial path. Tell me more about yourself. "
Xuanyuan Qingfeng remained silent.
Hsu Fengnian suddenly smiled. "Bringing you to the capital this time can't hide from those sneaky eyes. This can be considered your second pledge of allegiance. I'll find a chance to compensate you later."
Xuanyuan Qingfeng turned around and smiled playfully. "I just realized that doing business with you isn't a loss."
Hsu Fengnian smiled. "That's true."
Xuanyuan Qingfeng asked curiously, "You brought a Beiliang saber this time. Why didn't you bring the Spring Thunder? Why did you only bring the Spring Autumn?"
Hsu Fengnian said calmly, "You only have second-level inner force. Why would I bring so many weapons? Do you think I'm a weapon store owner?"
Xuanyuan Qingfeng sneered. "You're lying through your teeth. What's twelve flying swords?"
Hsu Fengnian said helplessly, "The Spring Autumn is in my hands. It's very difficult."
Xuanyuan Qingfeng asked, "What do you mean?"
Hsu Fengnian gently exhaled, blowing away a few snowflakes that had flown diagonally under the eaves. He calmly said, "I don't know why, but from time to time, there will be a trembling sound in spring and autumn."
Xuanyuan Qingfeng didn't ask any more questions. She didn't covet that sword at all.
Hsu Fengnian continued, "At first, I wanted to give this sword to the old man with the sheepskin fur coat. Later, when he died, I thought that it would be good to give it to Đồng Thái as a return gift. However, I reckon that he wouldn't accept it. Moreover, I might not be able to see him again in this lifetime. I'm just thinking that if, if I were to meet that brat Wen Hua, I might as well just give it to him. It's easy for him to abduct women when he goes out and shows off his wealth. "
The purple-robed Xuanyuan Qingfeng reclined on the chair with his eyes closed. "I really don't know why a dignified heir of Beiliang would care so much about a good-for-nothing debauchee."
Hsu Fengnian smiled and narrowed his phoenix eyes. The haze in his heart these days was swept away. He said softly, "It's good that you don't understand."

The woman in the fox fur coat lightly knocked on the door. Wu Liuding, who had been crouching under the eaves in a daze, frowned. After releasing the door, he lazily said, "Come in." Li Baishi lowered her head and stepped over the wooden door. She performed a curtsy toward the Wu family's sword crown. Wu Liuding called Wen Busheng into the room. Someone was looking for him. Wen Hua, who was lying on the bed admiring the Ba Xiu ancient sword, put on his wooden sword and walked out while cursing. When he saw the woman in the courtyard, he was pleasantly surprised. He didn't try to hide anything and jogged over with an embarrassed smile. He stopped a few steps in front of her and said, "Miss Li, why have you come? Let me know in advance so that I can borrow money from Six Vats and find a bigger place to entertain guests. In any case, lending him ten taels is no different than lending him a hundred taels. It's fate that brings men of the jianghu together, so we can't be stingy. Don't you think so, Six Vats I picked up from the side of the road? "
Wu Liuding looked at the rogue wanderer who was trying his best to signal him with his eyes. He just rolled his eyes and turned to look at the other side of the courtyard wall. Li Baishi held a bamboo basket of fresh fruits and vegetables in her hand. In the basket, there were also a few carps that had been chiseled out of the lake not long ago. They were still alive and kicking when strung through the gills with a straw rope. She said softly, "Have you eaten? If you haven't, I'm not going the same way this time. But I can make you a meal while I'm at it."
Wen Hua, who had only eaten two bowls of pickled vegetable noodles, scratched his head and said, "I ate two bowls of noodles, but it didn't help."
Li Baishi smiled sweetly. "I'll make it for you now. If it doesn't suit your taste, just say it directly. Next time, you can make up for your mistakes."
Wen Hua said with a mischievous smile, "Don't worry. I'm not a hypocritical person. I always say what I want to say."
