Traveling through ancient times: daily life on the run

Chapter 127: Angering each other to death

The Bai family's daily income dropped from making a fortune to a point where they could not make ends meet.

Mr. Bai Er was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot, and he directly asked Mrs. Bai Er to ask his sister for advice.

This idea must be reported to the Queen.

The eldest branch of the Bai family joined the Fang family, and the Fang family joined Prince Rui. It was not easy for these people to get rid of them.

Thinking about how to send the eldest daughter of the Bai family off to die every day has become a headache for the second master Bai and the manager Xie.

As soon as Wutian Restaurant opened, the salary of Manager Xie dropped by 50%.

Besides, as soon as Prince Ning arrived in Liangzhou City, he made friends with His Royal Highness Prince Rui and said that he wanted to get involved in all walks of life.

The shopkeeper Xie was so frightened that he immediately sold the goods in several stores at a discount to gain some sales.

The people were happy. Since the establishment of the Fang Group, the products of these major families were often discounted. Either the Bai family offered a discount of two or three cents per kilogram, or the Guan family offered buy three get one free, and Princess Rui's shop even gave away Wutian Pictorial for free. Every day was as lively as a holiday.

Only Yan Xuan and He Yuan were unhappy.

They were so busy every day that they had no time to think about how to take the white tiger away.

But news came from the Imperial City Office that the Imperial City Envoy Ye Yucheng personally led fifty guards to capture Baihu and bring him back to the capital.

Ye Yucheng has always been ruthless and unkind. He will definitely capture the white tiger alive, and maybe even kill it in order to bring it back.

Thinking about this, Yan Xuan unknowingly walked to Fang's house.

After dinner, Mr. Fang was about to go out for a walk when he saw Yan Xuan who was at a loss.

"Yan Xuan, why haven't I seen you for a long time? Are you too busy lately to come and see me, your grandfather?"

"Master Fang, have you eaten?"

"I've eaten, haven't you eaten yet? Come on, come inside, I'll ask the fat aunt to make you a delicious meal."

"Master Fang, there's me too." He Yuan followed from behind.

As a result, after entering the house, He Yuan ate with gusto, and Yan Xuan sneaked into Piaolingshe.

Apart from Baihu and Goupuizi, there is no one else in Piaolingshe for the time being.

The lackeys were particularly enthusiastic when they saw Yan Xuan. Now that this kid was here, there was someone else to play the game of chase with them.

When Xia Liang saw that it was Yan Xuan, he had a bad feeling. The boy's face looked like it was covered with dark clouds.

Although he wasn't very old, the young man looked somewhat mature, probably due to the constant exposure to the wind and rain, which had darkened his face. These days, he'd been working non-stop in the chess and card room from dawn to dusk, and he'd actually become several shades paler. Not to mention, the young man was actually quite handsome. Without his Imperial City Bureau uniform, he didn't look so serious. If he grew up, he'd definitely be a rare handsome man.

Xia Liang thought that although Prince Ning was handsome and suave, he was too pretentious and somewhat narcissistic. Young Master Murong was too secretive. He was clearly a powerful person, but he was always pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. She didn't like it.

On the other hand, Yan Xuan is a boy who likes to make jokes and is loyal and righteous. He is simple and kind. He is a cheerful boy and the type that Xia Liang likes.

Alas, it’s a pity that she is just a white tiger, and no matter how handsome a man is, he cannot hold her in his arms.

She just thought about it and continued to splash water boredly while sitting by the pool.

Unexpectedly, Yan Xuan sat with her on the shore.

"Summer cool."

Eh? He actually called her name?

Should she respond to him politely?

After all, this kid is much more handsome.

She responded, and Yan Xuan looked at her intently.

My jaw dropped. Did she understand?

No, he had to confirm it again.

"White Tiger!"

Childish, Xia Liang was too lazy to pay attention to him.

"Xia Liang!"

"..."

Seeing that Baihu ignored him, Yan Xuan sighed, thinking that he was overthinking.

How could a white tiger truly understand human nature? Even if it could communicate with people, it could only communicate with Miss Bai and Miss Qin.

Xia Liang slapped the water hard, splashing it onto his face.

This silly boy, why is he sighing at such a young age?

Yan Xuan looked at her, thinking she was comforting him.

A forced smile appeared on his lips.

"Xia Liang, I might have to take you back to the Imperial City. I wonder if you're willing to go back with me? I know you definitely don't want to go. Miss Bai and Miss Qin are so kind to you. If you go back to the palace, you definitely won't be as free as you are now..."

Baihu wanted to slap him on the head. You know I don’t want to go, yet you still ask?

Yan Xuan wanted to continue speaking when a splash of pool water splashed on his face again.

This time it's a lackey.

If Lord White Tiger wants to take it away, he has to ask its lackeys first.

"Xia Liang, it's not that I absolutely must take you away. I received a letter from the Imperial City Division saying that He Yuan and I haven't made any movement. So, they've decided to have the Imperial City Envoy Ye Yucheng lead a team to capture you in a few days. It won't be as simple as capturing you alive then. Envoy Ye Yucheng is decisive and ruthless, and he definitely won't spare your life just because you're a White Tiger with human nature."

Xia Liang curled his lips and said, "Are you doing this for my own good?"

You sent me to the palace, you were promoted and given titles, while I was trapped in an iron cage and lived a life worse than death.

It would be better to wait for the arrival of that Ye Chengshi to decide the winner!

Xia Liang had had enough of the miserable days of being confined in the yard. She would rather die. Perhaps if she could return to her original body, she could find a way to get Sister Luo Yu and the others to come back.

Yan Xuan could clearly see that Baihu was unhappy.

He stretched out his hand and patted Xia Liang's head gently, just like Miss Bai used to do.

Xia Liang was startled and looked up at him suddenly.

His hand suddenly retracted.

It was scary, she didn't seem to like him touching her.

Xia Liang snorted coldly and turned his head.

It turns out that all men are bad. They talk nicely, but it's just for their own great achievements.

She would never return to the imperial city unless the emperor came to invite her back personally.

Hahahahaha...

It’s okay to dream!

Seeing Xia Liang ignore him, Yan Xuan knew his persuasion had failed. Was he really just going to take it by force? But it would be hard for him and He Yuan to take a large white tiger, wouldn't it? And with that disobedient dog-legged guy, there was also this.

What if Ye Chengshi really wanted to kill Baihu? What would he do then?

Just thinking about it gave him a headache, so he stood up and prepared to leave.

But he didn't expect that Xia Liang followed him.

If Xia Liang really had something to say, she would just want to ask this guy: "Will you betray me then?"

It doesn’t matter whether he helps or not, but if he betrays me, I’ll kill him now.

It’s a pity that he doesn’t understand. Forget it, I’ll give you a ride. Next time we meet, we will be enemies.

Besides, Qin Bingrui and Luo Yu were invited by King Ning to go to the mansion where King Ning was temporarily staying.

This Prince Ning is really interesting. He has only lived here for a few days, but he has already bought a big house with hundreds of servants, which is no less than the current specifications of Fang's house.

Qin Bingrui got angry just looking at him.

After sitting down, he asked directly: "Mr. Zhu, when are you planning to leave?"

"Miss Qin, you don't have to worry too much. If you are worried about Baihu being discovered, you might as well send her to my mansion. I will definitely ensure her safety."

"That won't work. Who knows what you're up to? What if you trap her in an iron cage and send her to your brother's palace in the capital? Wouldn't that kill Baihu?"

Zhu Jinyou once again felt that Miss Ling Hong simply did not recognize the favor he had shown her in the past.

So heartless.

Luo Yu bowed and said, "If Master Zhu doesn't mind, how about we split up into two groups after we set off? You take Baihu and go ahead for half a day, and Bingrui and I will follow."

"Oh, you want those assassins to chase me, right?"

Zhu Jinyou raised his eyebrows, his eyes filled with evil. He had always been the one scheming against others, but he had never expected these two women to be so ruthless.

"Didn't you promise to help us protect the White Tiger? Why are you going back on your word?"

Qin Bingrui was so angry that he wanted to kill this guy immediately. Why did a grown man look so evil?

"I promised you to protect Baihu, but I didn't promise to take her with you."

Luo Yu lowered his eyes, too lazy to argue with him.
