Chapter 301: Chapter 303: The Special Letter
Upon seeing Feng Bailing’s wax craft and canned fruits, as well as the oyster sauce, Li Mubei had no more objections to establishing the Phoenix Chamber of Comrce.
The Zhang Brothers were also arranged by Feng Bailing to take the white wax worms to Xinqi Village first.
Feng Bailing also had them arrange the orphans and widows they brought with them in Xinqi Village.
The villagers of Xinqi Village had just encountered trouble, and Feng Bailing was concerned about their safety, so sending the Zhang Brothers would ensure their protection.
The Zhang Brothers were also very satisfied with such an arrangent and imdiately left with the boxes of white wax worms for Xinqi Village.
Just after the Zhang Brothers left, Feng Bailing took out a letter.
“Brother Li, here is a letter that my mother received earlier. You have always been puzzled why my mother wouldn’t accept you; this is the reason.”
The letter Feng Bailing took out was precisely the one that Feng Zhao’an had given to Dongfang Lianhua before.
It was because of this letter that Dongfang Lianhua’s heart beca even more uncertain towards Li Mubei.
The woman who wrote the letter was of unknown origin and identity, but she was definitely related to Li Mubei.
Upon seeing the letter, Li Mubei’s expression indeed changed.
“How would she know…”
Li Mubei looked up and t Feng Bailing’s stern gaze.
“Brother Li, I’ve always regarded you as an honorable gentleman, which is why I approved of you associating with my mother. But if you are already betrothed, or wish to dally with two won like other n, do not bla for turning my back on you.”
Although Feng Bailing wanted to cooperate with Li Mubei and make use of his business connections, when it ca to Dongfang Lianhua’s happiness, she would not hesitate to fall out with Li Mubei, even if it ant severing ties.
The precedent set by Feng Zhanlian made Feng Bailing and Dongfang Lianhua utterly despise n who were unfaithful in love.
“Bailing, you must help explain this to Lianhua. I will investigate this matter thoroughly and give you both an explanation.”
Li Mubei gripped the letter tightly, gave a bow to Feng Bailing, and left with a solemn face.
On the streets of Chu City, Dongfang Yong and Feng Luochen, the pair of troubled brothers, walked together in low spirits.
“There is always a place for the esteed gentlen like us elsewhere. Both of us are Wuji Masters; surely we won’t be holess.”
Feng Luochen felt utterly disappointed after failing to join the Mu Family Army.
Dongfang Yong felt the sa.
He had a hard ti in the rcenary world and had hoped to make a na for himself in the military.
Little did he know he would encounter such a despicable creature as Mu Nianzhi.
“Alas, I’m just very disappointed. With such an army in Great Chu, I fear the days ahead will be tumultuous.”
Feng Luochen had not long returned to Chu City, but he had heard that Prince Mu had taken over from Dugu Wu as the commander-in-chief of all armies.
Even though Dugu Wu was notorious for his cold-blooded cruelty, he was extrely strict with his military, unlike the Mu Family Army, which was rife with corrupt officials. What they had seen and heard that day was just the tip of the iceberg.
By comparison, Dugu Wu did not seem so hateful anymore.
“That’s the concern of the imperial family, and it’s irrelevant to common folk like us. Brother Feng, with your exceptional martial skills and being a legitimate son of Princess’ Mansion, why bother starting from the bottom?”
Dongfang Yong asked curiously.
He had already learned that Feng Luochen was from Princess Yong’an Mansion.
Turns out, the two of them were sowhat related by blood.
However, Feng Luochen despised Dugu Wu, which made Dongfang Yong quite fond of him.
Dongfang Yong also shared with Feng Luochen about his awkward status in the Shunqing Prince Manor, making Feng Luochen feel even more a sense of camaraderie between them.
“You don’t know, the situation in my family is complicated. My initial plan was to distinguish myself through the military, but now let’s not even ntion it. As for you, being a rcenary, why return to enlist? I’ve heard that the rcenary World is also full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. So Soldier Kings are significant figures in various countries, and even the emperors of those nations hold them in high regard.”
Feng Luochen spoke of rcenaries with aspirations.
A Soldier King Level rcenary is mostly a Wuji Expert, and there are many legends about them among civilians.
“I was frad. I failed a mission and lost sothing significant, which got kicked out of my previous rcenary Corps.”
Dongfang Yong, too, liked being a rcenary—freedom and the chance for both fa and fortune. But he was coerced into joining another corps, even leaving his fingerprint. Worse, he had no idea which corps he had joined. Right now, he only hoped not to encounter that person again.
No, he must find that person as soon as possible and tear him limb from limb.
After a lively and engaging conversation, the two entered the Zuixian Inn.
“Zuixian Inn is the newly erging restaurant in town after Chuyue Tower, and I’ve heard that the wine and dishes here are very good. Speaking of which, the closure of Chuyue Tower has so connection to . It’s quite a mystical affair. Co, let tell you about it.”
The two walked into the Zuixian Inn, arm in arm.
Little did Feng Luochen realize that as soon as he entered the Zuixian Inn, a pair of eyes were fixedly staring at him.
