He could still hear the teasing words that he once said, but he didn't know why the person who played the joke on him yesterday turned out to be the person who was played today.
Feng Linyuan picked up the gold ingot and said in a good mood: ”This Miss Bai really has a promise.”
”Linyuan,” Soong Yiqing lifted his head, staring at the gold ingot, ”Why don't you give me these three thousand silver taels? ”You also know where this money came from. Our relationship …”
”Our relationship goes from one yard to another.” Feng Linyuan coughed lightly as he lowered his head to look at the white wolf. ”Liufeng, what do you say?”
The Liufeng swallowed the chestnut in its mouth, and raised its head to grin at Soong Yiqing.
Soong Yiqing picked up the chestnut from earlier and threw it towards the Liufeng: ”You ungrateful bastard! I've fed you rabbit meat every day for free! ”
The Liufeng moaned in pain and hid behind Feng Linyuan, sticking only half of its head out.
Soong Yiqing bared his fangs at the Liufeng, then thought of something and said bitterly: ”Today that girl has offended Feng Jingxuan, Feng Jingxuan will definitely not let her go.”
Feng Linyuan rubbed the head of the Liufeng soothingly but did not say a word.
However, the black clothed man interrupted and said, ”The Dark Guard that Master has sent to protect Miss Bai has been placed around the Bai Mansion.”
”Feng Linyuan!” Soong Yiqing stomped his feet in anger.
Feng Linyuan looked at him coldly. ”I did it to prevent you from wasting two hundred thousand silver. If she had a good thing, who would you find to learn paper making?
What he did not say was that, with just a few words from the little girl, she had stirred up Feng Jingye's relationship with him, and even helped Feng Jingye to stand out, so Feng Jingxuan was afraid that he did not have the strength to come looking for her.
”Didn't you already write down the production method on a piece of paper for me to use?” Soong Yiqing said, unwilling to be outdone.
”I'm afraid the recipe she gave us isn't the best one.” Feng Linyuan smirked, ”Look at the words on those books, every page is exactly the same. Obviously, she didn't copy it with her hands.”
Hearing that, Soong Yiqing immediately opened the few books to take a closer look, the words inside were exactly the same.
The man in black opened his mouth and said, ”Miss Bai had first engraved this on a piece of wooden board and printed the ink onto the book.”
Soong Yiqing took a deep breath, this little girl's tricks were really done over and over again!
Feng Linyuan laughed and said: ”This girl is extremely shrewd, I'm afraid that even these wooden carvings are deceiving others, she still hasn't taken out a better method yet.”
Soong Yiqing looked at the book in his hand, and couldn't help but sink into deep thought.
However, Feng Linyuan's gaze went past Soong Yiqing and landed outside the window which was enveloped in darkness.
In this seemingly peaceful night, how many people were surging and unable to sleep for the rest of the night?
In the next three days, Bai Zheng laid in her Bai Mansion leisurely. Every day, she would either eat or sleep, and she would casually flip through all the scrolls in Bai Yinan's study, living a life that was quite interesting.
The only flaw was the food here.
In this era, the research on food was still at a very basic stage. The dishes were boiled and steamed, and the seasonings were only a little salt. It wasn't hard to swallow, but it was also boring.
Just as Bai Zheng was in a panic over the matter of cooking, His Majesty ordered a command that shocked the entire Great Zhou Palace.
