Chapter 176: Pei Qingfeng’s Scheme (2/2)

By the time Pei Qingfeng could react to his guard’s antics, everything was piled up in front of him. If they were all stacked up, they could form a new table in the room.

“You... why did you bring all these things here?” When Pei Qingfeng saw everything in front of him, he felt his scalp going numb. Even his head started to ache.

That guard looked at the pile of things and replied confidently, “Master, didn’t you say to bring some stuff over? I knew that you had a habit of studying ancient texts and writing calligraphy on folding fans. When I thought that you had finally found an opportunity to stay beside Divine Physician Bai, I brought more of them along with me. After all, weren’t you planning on staying for a long period of time?” When the guard spoke to Pei Qingfeng, Bai Luochu was somewhere else. As such, the guard didn’t hold himself back.

Pei Qingfeng felt helpless when he looked at his silly guard who had expectant expression plastered onto his face. He had no choice but to bite down hard as he replied, “I really don’t know if I should be praising you or criticizing you.”

Pei Qingfeng wanted to praise the guard, but decided against it. He was also unable to scold the guard as the guard managed to consider the fact that he was planning to spend a long time at the general’s residence.

The guard didn’t understand a word that was coming out of Pei Qingfeng’s mouth and he stood at the side patiently, waiting for his master to speak up.

“I called you here because I need you to spy on someone for me. He is extremely powerful and you cannot get too close to him. Report his actions to me. As for his name, he is rather famous… Your target this time is Lu Wenshu.”

“Lu Wenshu? Master, you are making things difficult for me! Who can spy on him without him noticing? If he notices me, won’t I be dead?”

“Just do it. Even if you don’t want to, you still have to do it! Stop messing around.” When he did things for Bai Luochu, Pei Qingfeng disregarded everyone else around him.

When the guard heard Pei Qingfeng’s adamant order, he complained. “Master, can you at least tell me the reason?”

“Cough cough. Firstly, he injured me, I need to know my enemy well if I want to take revenge in the future. Secondly, he has been pestering Luo Chu recently... I am afraid he has ulterior motives.”

The guard thought that the second reason was the true reason he was assigned to such a dangerous job. Sigh, since Master started mixing around with the orphan daughter from the general’s residence, his mind is filled with nothing but her. If this incident was recorded in the history books, Master would probably be portrayed as an incapable ruler who neglected important affairs in pursuit of a beauty, right? Luo Chu would be made out to be the seductress who brought calamity and destruction to the nation.
