My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.
Chapter 281 The Letter Arrives
Soon, the soldiers brought Zhong Xu and several horses to Tianrui.
The two wild horses were initially very unruly, but they immediately became docile when they were in front of Tianrui.
It looked like a mouse seeing a cat.
Fu Ci looked at them and found it extremely interesting. They were truly all incredibly lifelike.
He said, "Tianrui, please take these two wild horses back with you and give them to your owner so she can help tame them."
Tigers can't speak, so this was meant for Tianrui, but Zhong Xu still needed to relay it.
However, Fu Ci felt that even if Zhong Xu relayed his message, his junior sister might not necessarily do as he wished.
Thinking about his junior sister's personality, he thought for a moment, then asked someone to bring him pen and ink, and wrote another letter separately.
The letter stated that both wild horses were top-notch and that if they could be bred, they would surely produce excellent foals.
He asked Ji Yunshuang to put in a lot of effort for him, promising to thank her properly once it was done. As for how he would thank her, he said she could name her terms later.
After Fu Ci finished writing the letter, he handed it to Zhong Xu and said, "Originally, I wanted to find the antidote for the 'Softening Tendons and Soothing Bones Powder' to detoxify you before sending you back to report to your family's military commander. However, this tiger doesn't want any other soldiers with it; it only wants you to come with it, so I have no choice but to let you go back with it."
Fortunately, with him escorting you, your safety on the road is not a concern. As for the antidote to the muscle-softening and bone-dissolving powder, don't worry, I've found it and will immediately send someone to deliver it to your family's ginseng.
Zhong Xu was still as limp as a noodle and needed soldiers to support him to stand in front of Fu Ci.
He struggled to bow to Fu Ci, but Fu Ci raised his hand to stop him, saying, "Your poison hasn't been cleared, so there's no need to worry about these formalities. You should set off now! Thank you for your hard work."
As he spoke, he instructed his men to hide the letter in the saddle, just as they had done when Zhong Xu arrived, and then helped him onto the horse.
Seeing Zhong Xu mount his horse, Tian Rui gave a fierce whistle to the horses, and they galloped off in unison.
Tianrui glanced back at Fu Ci, and then, at a similar speed, galloped out of the military camp.
It stood guard around the horses like a loyal protector.
Upon seeing this, Fu Ci's personal guards couldn't help but exclaim again, "Your Highness, this tiger is truly intelligent. If it could be by your side to protect your safety, Your Highness—"
Before he could finish speaking, Fu Ci interrupted him unhappily, "You mustn't say that again. That's the tiger that Junior Sister raised!"
Putting aside whether the tiger obeys his commands or not, even if it does, he would never steal his junior sister's beloved pet.
After being reprimanded, the guard hurriedly knelt down and apologized, saying, "It was my overstepping, Your Highness, please forgive me."
Although Fu Ci did not punish him, his expression was very unpleasant. Because of this incident, those around him had a new understanding of Ji Yunshuang's position in their young master's heart.
It seems that although Ji Yunshuang has only been under Xie Junshi's tutelage for a short time, his young master truly regards her as his junior sister.
It wasn't just his appreciation of her intelligence and ability, but also his admiration for her, and his respect for his junior sister.
They should be even more cautious about this Lieutenant General Ji in the future.
Leaving aside any change in the guards' opinion of Ji Yunshuang, Ji Yunshuang was quite surprised to see Zhong Xu returning with Tianrui, along with two wild horses.
"What's going on here?"
She looked at Zhong Xu, who was hanging weakly on the horse's back, and her eyes were full of surprise: "There was an accident on the way, and the letter was not delivered?"
Zhong Xu said with shame, "There was a slight accident, but the letter was delivered."
Then, he recounted what had happened on the road and apologized, saying, "It was my fault for being so incompetent that I fell into their trap. It was thanks to Brother Hu, whom the master sent, that I was saved and the letter was delivered smoothly."
After hearing Zhong Xu's words, Tianrui shook his fur and gave Ji Yunshuang a proud yet praise-seeking look.
Ji Yunshuang chuckled and patted his head, praising, "Yes, my Tianrui is really amazing. You've worked hard, go and rest now!"
She knew that the tiger, which was almost a spirit, wanted nectar as a reward from her, but since there were outsiders present, she couldn't possibly put it in her spatial storage.
Tianrui was sensible; after hearing Ji Yunshuang's words, he happily ran off.
Zhong Xu said, "By the way, the young master also said that he asked Brother Hu to help tame two wild horses. Brother Hu caught these two wild horses, and no one in the military camp can do anything about them. They only listen to Brother Hu."
Ji Yunshuang had noticed the two wild horses long ago; they were indeed rare and fine horses.
She had never imagined that Tianrui could serve such a purpose besides being a means of transportation.
It seems we need to explore its potential more and make better use of it in the future, so as not to waste it.
As Zhong Xu spoke, he remembered something and added, "The young master also wrote you a reply, which he hid in the saddle."
Ji Yunshuang asked two guards to come and help. They first helped the two men to their rooms to rest, while she went to retrieve the letter from the saddle.
Today, Tianrui took Zhong Xu directly back to the Lu family. Ji Yunshuang didn't ask anyone in the family to avoid them, and just talked to Zhong Xu in the courtyard.
The housekeepers had all heard what was said, and everyone was now filled with astonishment.
They had been at the Lu family's house for some time and had heard many rumors in the village.
I know what merits the second son of the Lu family has made in the army; he's no ordinary farmer.
But they didn't expect that the Lu family was more than just an ordinary farming family.
The most powerful person in the Lu family doesn't seem to be the second son in the Lu family army, but rather the woman in front of us, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Lu family.
Not only can she raise large tigers and command them, but she also receives letters from important figures, including a prince…
The group's legs went weak. They thought back on what they had done these past few days and were secretly glad that they had not looked down on the Lu family just because they were farmers living in the village, nor had they done anything to wrong the Lu family.
Two guards helped Zhong Xu to his room to rest.
Ji Yunshuang took the letter back to her room.
Fu Ci's letter, however unoriginal, was mostly within her expectations.
In the letter, he fulfilled her request, ordering Lu Yinheng to lead troops towards Ningxing Prefecture. He also indicated that he knew he would report the situation in Ningxing Prefecture to the Prince, and that she would have full authority over Ningxing Prefecture from now on, and he would fully cooperate with any needs she might have. The only thing that surprised her was that a large number of Qi troops were marching towards Jing Prefecture.
Although she had planned for this long ago, it seems to have happened earlier than she expected.
Another hastily written letter concerned the horses and Zhong Xu's antidote.
Although he said he would send someone to deliver the antidote after searching for it, Ji Yunshuang felt that the matter of the antidote might not require his attention.
Fu Pei is currently locked in the space, and she has basically swept away everything in his secret vault. The antidote for the muscle-softening and bone-melting powder should be among them.
Just as she was about to enter the space, she heard a sound outside. She frowned and listened carefully, and then she heard Yan Cui's voice.
A smile appeared on her lips.
This is because they couldn't hold back any longer and started to take action.
Let her see who's so bold as to send people to her family.
Ji Yunshuang figured out why the Yan family mother and daughter were working for them without much effort.
Although the two had undergone special training, their skills were completely inadequate against Ji Yunshuang.
However, after learning that the two were actually arranged by Fu Pei, Ji Yunshuang still felt that her time and energy had been wasted.
She was worried that someone else was watching her, so she was extra careful, but she didn't expect it was someone arranged by Fu Pei.
