3283 Meeting the Crown Prince Again
Zhu Yi seemed strict, but he was a chatterbox along the way. He kept telling his junior brother to work hard.
Feng Wu nodded eagerly.
However, Zhu Yi didn’t seem convinced at all.
He looked at his junior brother with disappointment and resignation.
Feng Wu thought Zhu Yi would take her to Mr. Sakiya’s yard.
According to Bu Jingyu, Mr. Sakiya’s courtyard wasn’t far from Bu Jingyu’s. They were only hundreds of meters apart.
But now —
They had already walked past several lakes, pavilions, and long corridors… It had been over thirty minutes.
Where were they going?
Feng Wu recalled the map Lou had drawn for her.
They were going to the main courtyard.
As expected!
Soon, she saw the plaque of the main courtyard ahead of them.
The path leading to the main courtyard was hundreds of meters long. It was wide enough for eight carts to travel side-by-side and was paved with green jade stone slabs. The ground was smooth and orderly, giving off an indescribable noble aura.
“Master is taking care of the crown prince,” Zhu Yi lowered his voice and told his junior brother. “Master hasn’t recovered yet, and the crown prince’s injuries have been unstable. Master is very busy and doesn’t have the energy to focus on you. Don’t cause more trouble for Master again. Alright?”
Feng Wu nodded obediently. “Yes.”
Zhu Yi frowned. He could tell from his junior brother’s tone that the latter wasn’t serious.
He tried to warn ‘Bu Jingyu,’ “Just because you were sent by our Martial Grandfather doesn’t mean you can be so arrogant! With that connection, you should work harder!”
Martial Grandfather?
Wait…
Feng Wu did some calculations in her head.
Mr. Sakiya’s Master was Chu Tianxiao.
That meant Zhu Yi and Bu Jingyu’s Martial Grandfather was her third senior brother!
Feng Wu said, “I know that.”
Feng Wu’s voice was as soft as a mosquito’s, and Zhu Yi felt sorry for his junior brother. He said, “If you really can’t memorize it, just cry out Martial Grandfather’s name when Master is about to hit you. Understand?”
Feng Wu asked, “Will Martial Grandfather be there?”
Zhu Yi looked at Feng Wu in resignation. “Of course he won’t show up, but Master respects him the most. If you cry out Martial Grandfather’s name, Master won’t beat you to death. You know you made a bet with Master: If you can’t memorize the text, you’ll chop off a finger!”
Feng Wu was speechless.
How did Bu Jingyu dare to make such a bet? That was so bold of him.
Feng Wu said, “Thank you, Senior Brother.”
Zhu Yi let out a long sigh. “Master has yet to recover from his injuries, and His Royal Highness is still injured. The second prince is getting restless… If Martial Grandfather shows up now, all the problems will be easily solved.”
Feng Wu’s eyes lit up.
She had seen her third senior brother before!
She remembered his appearance, his clothes, and his sword…
If she pretended to be her third senior brother and tricked Mr. Sakiya, would she have a better chance of getting the second Immortal Spiritual Fruit?
Feng Wu decided to plan it out!
“Jingyu? What are you thinking about?” Zhu Yi asked Feng Wu with a frown.
Feng Wu said, “Huh? I… I’m trying to remember the inscriptions.”
Zhu Yi nodded in satisfaction. This child finally knew fear.
By then, the two of them had already entered the main courtyard.
The main courtyard consisted of quadrangle dwellings.
After entering the main entrance, there was a house facing the opposite direction. Beyond that was the patio.
Stepping through the door, Feng Wu saw rows of mahogany chairs, which gave her a sense of formality.
Zhu Yi didn’t stay in the reception area. Instead, he led Feng Wu into the inner room.
