The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability

Looking at Cang Yu on his arm, Xiao Ran in the courtyard smiled and said, "Cang Yu, what brings you here again?"

Cang Yu held his head high and ignored him, then pushed the foot containing the bamboo tube forward. Xiao Ran placed Cang Yu on the stone table in the courtyard, turned to the people outside the gate, and ordered, "Cang Yu is here. Go to the kitchen and get some fresh meat."

"Yes! I'll go right away." The man turned and ran towards the kitchen.

Xiao Ran began to untie the bamboo tube from his leg. Just as the tube was removed, Cang Yu spread its wings and knocked the unprepared Xiao Ran to the ground.

Xiao Ran stood up, leaning on the stone table. He plucked the bird feathers from his head, spat, gritted his teeth, and pointed at Cang Yu in the sky, cursing, "You Cang Yu! All that kindness I've shown you, even sending people to get you meat to feed you, and this is how you treat me? If I ever feed you meat again, I'll be a dog!"

As soon as Xiao Ran finished speaking, Cang Yu, who had originally planned to fly away, turned around and flew back, circling once above Xiao Ran's head.

Xiao Ran suddenly felt an ominous premonition, and a sense of vigilance arose spontaneously. Sure enough, the next moment, a clump of bird droppings fell from the sky!

Fortunately, Xiao Ran was very alert. After noticing something was wrong, he immediately slipped into the room, thus avoiding the terrible situation of being drenched in bird droppings.

Seeing that his attack had missed, Cang Yu turned and flew away.

Xiao Ran opened the window and watched Cang Yu's departing figure, finally letting out a sigh of relief: "Damn bird! Like master, like bird. It got angry after a few words. Luckily, I ran fast."

This is the servant who went to the kitchen to get meat. He brought over a piece of raw meat: "Commander Xiao, should this meat be chopped up and fed to Cang Yu?"

Xiao Ran cursed, "You even chopped it up and fed it? I'm tempted to chop it up and braise it myself! Take it back to the kitchen and have the cook braise it for me; it'll be perfect with my drinks tonight!"

Furthermore, the order was given that Cangyu would only come to deliver messages again from now on, and no one was allowed to feed it meat!

The servant looked puzzled upon hearing Xiao Ran's words: "Commander Xiao was perfectly fine just now, telling me to get some meat to feed Cang Yu. How come his attitude has changed so drastically in the blink of an eye? He even ordered that I not to feed it any more meat when I participate in other activities. How can he change his mind so quickly?"

Did something unpleasant happen between Commander Xiao and Cang Yu when he went to get the meat?

Xiao Ranjian froze on the spot, then said irritably, "Do as I say. From now on, no one is allowed to feed it meat. Also, clean up that pile of bird droppings in the yard!"

The servant looked at the huge pile of bird droppings in the yard and suddenly realized: it turned out that Cang Yu had pooped in the yard, which displeased Commander Xiao. No wonder, Commander Xiao is known for being very clean. If this bird hadn't belonged to the general, it probably would have been braised by Commander Xiao long ago!

The servant carrying the piece of meat replied, "Yes, sir! I'll give the order right away, and they'll come and clean up this place in a bit."

Xiao Ran nodded, took the bamboo tube in his hand and went into the study. He took out the letter from the bamboo tube and immediately understood that it was a letter that the general was delivering on behalf of someone else, and that the letter was to be delivered to the Feng family, the richest family in Nan'an City.

Xiao Ran rolled up the letter, put it back into the bamboo tube, tucked it into his pocket, turned around and left the room. He went to the stable, led out a horse, and told the servant at the door, "I have something to do. I'm going to the Feng family. If there's anything, wait for me to come back."

"Yes! Commander!"

After Xiao Ran finished speaking, he mounted his horse and, after about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, arrived at the gate of the Feng residence. There was a carriage and a dozen guards at the gate, looking as if they were ready to go!

Xiao Ran hurriedly stepped forward: "Where is Patriarch Feng? My surname is Xiao. I am here on my master's orders to deliver a message. Please inform him!"

Just as Feng Xian was about to board the carriage, he heard someone looking for him, saying they were delivering a message for someone else. He turned around and came to Xiao Ran: "Young brother, I am Feng Xian. May I ask who you are delivering a message for?"

Xiao Ran stepped forward, clasped his hands in a salute, and said, "Greetings, Patriarch Feng. I have a letter here, which someone asked my master to pass on to you. You will understand once you see it." After speaking, Xiao Ran took out the bamboo tube from his pocket and handed it to Feng Xian.

Although Feng Xian had doubts, seeing that Xiao Ran did not seem like a wicked person, he took the bamboo tube, opened it, pulled out the letter, and after unfolding it, his excited expression was beyond words: "Young brother, you have come just in time. If you had come a moment later, you would have made a wasted trip. Young brother, please wait a moment."

After Feng Xian finished speaking, he turned and ran to the carriage, first opening the curtain: "Master, Senior Brother, get out of the carriage quickly. Junior Sister has sent someone to deliver a message. Junior Sister and the others are safe and sound and have already left."

"Is this really true?" Zhuge Qingyi's voice was somewhat excited.

"Is Junior Sister truly safe and sound?" Wang Zixuan's voice followed.

“It’s true! Master, please take a look!” After saying that, Feng Xian handed Li Liuyun’s letter to Zhuge Qingyi.

After reading Li Liuyun's letter, Zhuge Qingyi breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Feng Xian: "Where is the messenger now?"

After speaking, Zhuge Qingyi got off the carriage, and Wang Zixuan, with Feiyun's help, also got off the carriage and sat in a wheelchair.

Feng Xian pointed to Xiao Ran, who was leading a horse at the door, and said, "Master, senior brother, that young man is the messenger."

Zhuge Qingyi nodded, and the group came to Xiao Ran. Xiao Ran saw that these people had an otherworldly temperament, especially the old man in the lead, who had an air of immortality and a faint smell of medicine on his body. Xiao Ran's heart stirred: Could this person be...?

Sure enough, the next moment Xiao Ran heard the old man speak: "I am Zhuge Qingyi. I have a few questions for you, young brother. Would it be convenient?"

Upon hearing Zhuge Qingyi's words, Xiao Ran quickly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "I dare not! Junior Xiao Ran greets Senior Zhuge. Please feel free to ask me anything, and I will tell you whatever I know."

Zhuge Qingyi helped Xiao Ran up: "May I ask, young brother, who delivered this letter to you? It's only been an hour since the earth dragon turned over, and judging from the tremors of the earth dragon, it should be at least ten miles away from here. Moreover, the roads are difficult to travel after the earth dragon turned over. How did your letter arrive so quickly?"

Upon hearing Zhuge Qingyi's words, Xiao Ran smiled and said, "Senior, you may not know this, but my surname is Xiao. My master is General Xiao, who guards the frontier. To tell you the truth, the messenger was not a person, but a gyrfalcon kept by my master."

That's why this letter arrived so quickly; the messenger probably wanted to reassure you, so he asked my master to deliver it to your residence to let you know you're safe."

"Your master's surname is Xiao? Is he a relative of Xiao Yi, the Duke of Protector of the State in the Northern Imperial City?" Zhuge Qingyi asked again.

"Reporting to senior, it is indeed the Xiao family of the Duke of Protectorate!" Xiao Ran nodded with a smile.

Zhuge Qingyi and Feng Xian were finally relieved after hearing Xiao Ran's words. They both knew that Li Liuyun's journey was to go to the Xiao family's military camp first, and then to the Southern Frontier. So it was the Xiao family who received Li Liuyun, and Li Liuyun was able to ask the Xiao family to send a message to let them know that he was safe.

Seeing the two of them breathe a sigh of relief, Wang Zixuan asked in confusion, "Master, Junior Brother, could it be that Junior Sister has some connection with the Xiao family?"
