Awesome! My best friend traveled through time and space and became the infrastructure queen

Zhan Xiao paused holding the teacup, raised his eyelids and looked over, "Is that true?"

Lu Chaofeng smiled bitterly, covered his mouth and coughed a few times, "Of course it's true. Commander Zhan is not an outsider, so I'll just say it straight."

"During the war, my father was leading his troops through Luo City when he saw the city lord's son bullying a decent woman and even accidentally killing someone. My father, with his explosive temper, immediately dealt with the man."

"It's not a big deal to clean it up. But... this woman turned out to be my father's wife, and the one who died was his only son. This is bad!"

"Your Majesty, did you kill someone?"

"More than that!" Lu Chaofeng sighed and shook his head. "My father was already angry that the city lord withheld the food and fodder, forcing his soldiers to fight on an empty stomach. His son just happened to run into the muzzle of his gun. What good can he do? Not only did he lose his life, but he also obediently vomited up the food."

Zhan Xiao put down his teacup and said, "In a war, food and fodder are the most important things. Alas, it's not easy for Your Highness."

"Yes, food and fodder are so important. My father has been worried about this a lot. We don't know how many holes our Ningyuan Palace has filled. I see all that silver, it's all for Yongguo!"

Zhan Xiao's expression brightened considerably. He was also a hot-blooded general. No matter which side he belonged to, he always admired those who fought bravely on the battlefield to defend their country! Prince Ningyuan was a hero, and so was Marquis Xiaoyong. Alas, what a pity...

Thinking of this, Zhan Xiao also calmed down.

Indeed, Lu Chaofeng had no reason to hold Sun Liangyuan captive. He never paid attention to court affairs and rarely socialized with ministers. The White Bear Nation's envoy's arrival in Beijing was a closely guarded secret, so he certainly had no idea. Even if he knew, there was no reason to obstruct them.

"Sir, if Sun Liangyuan is really not in your house, I won't stay here any longer. Goodbye!"

"Don't worry, Commander Zhan. I've already sent people to look for him. I believe there will be news soon."

"Thank you, my lord. I'm staying at the Fortune Inn in the city. If you have any news, please send someone to let me know."

"Sure, sure! But..."

Lu Chaofeng paused for two seconds, then changed the subject, "Mr. Sun has a strange personality. If I find him, what should I tell him?"

Zhan Xiao had no doubts. "The envoys from the White Bear Nation will arrive in the capital soon. The Queen Mother hopes that Mr. Sun can accompany them as a representative to receive them."

"Okay, okay, I believe Mr. Sun will actively cooperate on such an important matter."

"Okay, thank you for your help, Prince."

"You're welcome, Commander. I'll take you there."

"No need, please stay."

"it is good."

Just as Zhan Xiao was leaving the house, Bing San arrived carrying a lunch box. The two of them bumped into each other head-on, but fortunately Bing San managed to keep his expression under control, and the two of them passed each other smoothly.

But Bingsan had practiced martial arts for a long time, so even with his elaborate disguise, his movements and movements were still different from those of ordinary people. Zhan Xiao was the commander of the imperial guards, so his eyes were naturally experienced and venomous.

"Stop!" he said suddenly.

Bingsan pretended not to hear and continued walking at a steady pace, but his heart was already pounding.

"Stop!" Zhan Xiao took a step forward, flashed to Bingsan's side, and grabbed his shoulders directly.

He used 80% of his strength in this move. Bingsan didn't dare to reveal his identity and martial arts skills, so he could only take it head-on.

"Ouch!" He cried out in pain, and the food box in his hand fell to the ground.

Bing San twisted his body, sweating profusely from the pain, but his expression remained tense as he questioned the understated Zhan Xiao, "Let me go! Who are you, and why are you resorting to violence in the Crown Prince's Villa?"

"You don't know martial arts?"

"I can dance. I will only dance if the prince tells me to."

Zhan Xiao frowned and stared for a few seconds, then suddenly let go of his hand in disgust.

At this time, Xu Zhong, the steward of the Ningyuan Palace, came running over and said, "Commander Zhan, are you all right? I am ignorant and disturbed you. Please forgive me."

"The prince's preferences are truly... unique."

"Ah? This... I dare not criticize my master."

"Hmph, let's go."

"Please."

Bingsan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the two men walking away, and hurriedly went to the noodles with the food box.

When Lu Chaofeng saw that it was him, he couldn't help but frown, then his eyes moved down and lingered on the dark food box for a while.

"What's the matter?"

"Sir, the young lady asked me to come and give you something."

"Oh?" Lu Chaofeng raised his eyelids and took a sip of tea. "Put it down."

Bingsan placed the food box on the table next to Lu Chaofeng, then opened it, took out the pastries inside, and pushed it in front of him.

Lu Chaofeng lowered his eyes and glanced at her, "Did your young lady do this?"

Bingsan wanted to say no, but his mouth was faster than his brain, "Well, the lady thought it tasted good and asked me to bring it over for you to try." Well, the lady put this thing into the lunch box herself, so it must be related to it, right? After all, she put in some effort.

Lu Chaofeng glanced at the snacks but didn't eat them. Su Chengnan hadn't seen Sun Liangyuan, so she naturally wanted to ask him to write another visiting card. But she had no idea that Sun Liangyuan had disappeared and everyone was looking for him.

Seeing that Lu Chaofeng remained silent, Bingsan had no choice but to speak up.

"My Lord, the young lady would like to ask you for a favor. She ran into that man on the road today, and was busy trying to avoid him, so she was late in meeting Mr. Sun. She would like to ask you to help her pass on the invitation."

"Is my name so useful?"

"Huh?" Bing San was stunned for a moment, then quickly bowed and smiled shyly, "Of course it's useful. Please help me, Prince."

Lu Chaofeng had been coughing for a long time, so his mouth inevitably felt a bit bitter. He picked up a small piece of cake and put it in his mouth.

Well, it melts in your mouth.

Not bad, edible.

It's soft and fluffy, not too sweet, and tastes just right.

"Your young lady's attitude towards asking for help is really unique."

"Go back and tell her."

"I can help her once, but if you want me to help her again, come and tell me in person."

Bingsan took a breath and heard the hidden meaning in Lu Chaofeng's words. You just want to see our young lady. If you want to see her, just say it directly.

"Yes, my lord, I will go back and tell the young lady now."

"Go."

Lu Chaofeng raised his chin, but his fingers remained on the pastries. His face looked thoughtful, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

Bingsan saluted and quietly withdrew.

Only after he walked away did Lu Chaofeng slowly come to his senses.

He thought that this thing was probably not made by Su Chengnan, but by her second sister who had a strong personality but was extremely dependent on her.

I've never seen or tasted this before, but it tastes pretty good, even better than that Jixiangfang place in Los Angeles that always has a long queue...

Well, this skill can be bought!

Since the king's uncle can open a Jixiangfang, why can't the Ningyuan Palace open a Ruyizhai?
