Chapter 22 Going to Tianxiang Tower Again
Feng Yumian was obviously not so easily fooled. She did not believe Xu Feng's perfunctory attitude towards her. On the way back, she kept asking what had happened in the sky prison.
"Tell me quickly, why are those demons so respectful to you? Could it be that they are really afraid of Tianxiang Tower? But they are not even afraid of death."
"When did you become so smart?"
Xu Feng widened his eyes and tried to change the subject. He really had no way to answer Feng Yumian's question.
"I've always been smart, okay? Don't think I'm still a child."
"Don't try to change the subject. Answer me directly. Did you drug them? Can you give me some of the good stuff?"
Of course Xu Feng couldn't tell her the truth, especially since Feng Yuzhi was following him.
He couldn't just put on his disguise in front of the two sisters and tell them that he was the Ghost-Faced Man. If he dared to do that, Feng Yuzhi would probably join forces with Zuo Kuncheng to arrest him on the spot.
His true identity cannot be revealed for the time being.
"Maybe those guys are afraid of me. Anyway, there's always one between me and Tianxianglou that they're afraid of."
Feng Yumian seemed to be lost in thought, staring at Xu Feng with suspicion.
Xu Feng remained very calm and let her look at him without any panic.
Anyway, he has always hidden the Ghost-Faced Man's alias very well. He wears a mask when going out, and no one has ever seen his true face.
"Afraid of you? Those people are just worried about Tianxianglou. They really think you have such a big face. If you have this ability, you won't stay at home like a waste, doing nothing all day long."
Feng Yuzhi never misses an opportunity to ridicule Xu Feng.
As soon as she opened her mouth, both Xu Feng and Feng Yumian lost interest in chatting.
"You should have a good rest first. I will arrange for someone to bring you food. You probably didn't eat in the prison, did you?"
"No need, I just let Dong'er do whatever he wants. He hasn't suffered any injustice, so there's no need to worry."
Seeing this, Feng Yumian said no more.
As soon as Xu Feng entered the yard, he saw Dong'er rushing towards him. The little girl had obviously been crying for a long time, and her eyes were red.
"Uncle, are you okay? I thought you would never come back."
"That's not an exaggeration. It's just the Six Gates Prison. Look, I'm fine. Not even a piece of flesh has fallen off my body."
There was someone at home who cared about him, and Xu Feng's eyes rarely showed a hint of tenderness. He felt that he was out of tune with this era.
Only Dong'er can touch the tenderness in his heart, and now there is another Feng Yumian.
After dinner, Xu Feng began to meditate.
On this day, the small courtyard that had never been visited by anyone suddenly welcomed guests from Tianxiang Tower.
The visitor was Miss Rong's maid, who invited Xu Feng to Tianxiang Tower to appreciate poetry.
"Mr. Xu, if it's convenient, please follow me now. My lady is waiting for you outside."
Xu Feng did not refuse. He owed a favor to someone in the world, or to be more precise, he owed a favor to Miss Rong. Since the other person had specially invited him, there was no need to refuse.
"Wait a minute, I'll change my clothes and go with you."
Before he could leave, Feng Yuzhi got the news from somewhere and rushed in.
"Where do you want to go? You'd better stay home. It's not like a son-in-law to hang out outside all day. Without my permission, you can't step out of this courtyard today."
Feng Yuzhi has a desire for control and she does not allow others to disobey her wishes. Xu Feng used to be submissive in front of her, but recently, Feng Yuzhi always felt that she could no longer control Xu Feng.
This is her opportunity to assert her authority.
"Miss Feng is so arrogant. Others have to get your permission before they can go out. Could it be that the son-in-law doesn't even have freedom? I have never heard of such a rule."
A familiar voice sounded. It was Miss Rong. She had indeed come to the Feng family in person.
Before Feng Yuzhi could reply, she saw Miss Rong waving her hand and asking the maid beside her to drop a package on the ground.
"There's bright white gold in here. Consider it the payment for inviting Xu Feng to come over to enjoy poetry. What do you think?"
"If it's not enough, you can tell me. It doesn't hurt to add more. Mr. Xu is a man of great talent. It's really unfair for him to be the son-in-law of your Feng family."
Feng Yuzhi was so angry that her face turned blue, but she didn't dare to talk back to Miss Rong. After all, the other party was from Tianxiang Tower, and the power of the Feng family had not reached that level yet.
Even Jianfengshan would have to think carefully if he wanted to offend Tianxianglou.
It wasn't until Xu Feng was taken away that Feng Yuzhi came to her senses.
She always belittled Xu Feng as worthless, but she never thought that the person she didn't value was worth a hundred taels of gold or even more in the eyes of others.
"Just being able to write a few poems is really worthy of Tianxiang Tower's attention?"
No one answered her question.
On the other side, Miss Rong invited Xu Feng to get in the carriage and sit with her.
"I wonder if Miss Rong wants to talk to me about something?"
"Can't I really ask you to appreciate my poetry?"
"If it's just a simple poetry appreciation, you can just send a maid to come to me. Why bother coming here in person?"
Xu Feng was also a very versatile person, and he guessed that this matter might not be that simple.
Sure enough, the poems Xu Feng had written in Tianxiang Tower were widely circulated, and some people even compared him with some great Confucian sages, which caused dissatisfaction among many young people.
Since ancient times, the best in civil and military affairs has always been the first, and there is no second in martial arts. Naturally, they want to step on Xu Feng's head to become famous. Many people have visited her before, but they were all driven away by Miss Rong. The person who came this time is not simple, he is the number one person in Beilu Academy.
Even Tianxiang Tower has to give the academy some face.
"I see. So, this isn't just a feud between the younger generation, but also a gambling fight between Tianxiang Tower and Beimi Academy?"
"Yes, it also involves the grudges of the older generation. If Tianxianglou loses, it will be very difficult. Ten thousand taels of gold, plus twelve reward orders."
So many tokens are enough for the other party to exchange for one of the top weapons in the Weapon Storage Pavilion, so of course we can't let them get it for free.
During the conversation, the carriage had already stopped outside Tianxiang Tower. Miss Rong personally brought Xu Feng in to compete in poetry. Xu Feng was really not afraid of anyone.
But this time the visitor had no good intentions. The other party was obviously prepared. After seeing Xu Feng, he started to mock him on the spot without giving him any face at all.
"Are you the treacherous person who only knows how to steal other people's poems and falsify them?"
What a show of force! Xu Feng was accused of such a big crime right from the start.
Xu Feng looked at the other party expressionlessly and did not respond in a hurry. Since the other party spoke, he must have been fully confident.
Once he responds, he will inevitably fall into the other party's trap.
