Chapter Thirteen: The Savage Bloodline of the Fang Family

  This is no fun, I've already jumped out, obviously using the emperor to suppress others. Swallowing my saliva, I'm a decent person and won't bother with this sinister stinky girl. "The door is over there, since there's nothing else, I'll see off Princess He Pu..." Bowing respectfully, expression serious, eyes just, not a single thread out of place, almost perfect.

  Li Yu slowly moved to the door like a snail, then suddenly turned back, tilted his head and looked at my lowered eyelids: "Are you angry?"

  "No, I'm not angry, just feel the weather is not good, afraid of another headache." Is it worth it? You're a princess coming to my place, not here to play, what's the point of getting angry over such a trivial matter? It's not worth it.

  "Really narrow-minded..." Li Yu wrinkled up his nose, and actually sat down on my low couch, slowly sipping tea, I've never seen anyone so... infuriating.

  He picked up a teapot and took several big gulps, refreshing the air.

  "What nonsense, I'm just a humble commoner." I leaned comfortably against the edge of the couch, stretching out my legs. Green Butterfly quickly pulled at my sleeve, our maid was very polite, but as for Li Shu, that sly little princess, no politeness was needed.

  "Heart and eyes are as small as a measuring cup, ordinary people have no connection with him. A man with such a small heart and eyes, I've never seen before." Li Yu seemed to hum disdainfully.

  "I won't bother with you anymore, you're not here to take advantage of me, are you? Big sister... Can't hit, can't scold, can't get rid of this loli version of a plague god. I'll just give up on you, it's too frustrating."

  "It was my third brother who told me to come, otherwise I wouldn't have had the time to run here. He wants you to go hunting together in Nangu three days later. These past few days he's been scolded by father and can't leave the house, so he asked me to inform you. Three days from now, early morning, outside Mingde Gate, don't forget."

  "Ah!... De brother is indeed... admirable." No wonder he's the most arrogant among the aristocrats, too overbearing. Being confined at home and still thinking of going hunting, if he were actually hunting, this Commander Li would probably be thinking of taking lives.

  Li Yu splashed a smile: "The small person with a mismatched heart and mouth, is it you?" To be honest, this girl's smile was really bright and moving.

  "Don't slander me, I'm a real person, don't look at me with that kind of colored glasses. I was originally a real person." I solemnly defend my reputation, indeed, from the mouths of the servants in the Fang household, it is known that Fang Yilai, although very wasteful and stupid, but is actually a very honest and simple-minded person. Several years later, he even wore a green hat and happily stood guard for his wife who had an affair, thinking about this makes me want to slap Fang Yilai twice, forget it, now I'm just hurting myself.

  "Hmph, if I hadn't seen you before, I would have thought you were a bad egg who crawled out of that place to impersonate Young Master Fang's second son." Li Fu's analysis was very accurate. But the problem is, I'm not a bad egg, I'm also a victim of a time-traveling accident.

  I let out a long sigh, with an extremely sorrowful expression: "Actually... you guessed correctly. I am indeed a hot-blooded young man who has been reincarnated from a thousand years ago."

  -

  "Believe you? You're kidding." Li Hu said with a sideways glance at me: "Where's that thing?" As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes kept darting to my waist, which really scared me.

  "Shameless wretch, what do you think I'm looking at?" Li Yu stomped her foot, her face red and her eyes green with anger as she glared at me: "The incense ball I gave you...you this..." She glanced at Green Butterfly, who pretended not to hear, gazing up at the roof as if there was endless fun up there. The clever little maid...But...I had already seen that Green Butterfly's fingers were white-knuckled as she clutched her sleeve.

  "Oh... why didn't you say so earlier..." He lifted it up from his waist and put it on display.

  "Remember, don't lose it, or I'll let my dad deal with you!" This little girl, does the emperor have to intervene in such a trivial matter? Forget it, no need to argue with this little loli. Forced a couple of dry smiles: "Don't worry, as long as people are around, the ball will be too..." The last two words were said with a changed tone, switching concepts. This little girl seemed to only understand the general idea, her face slightly red with a smile, didn't say anything, and took a few goose feather pens and the white paper I was writing on from my desk before leaving.

  "What are you doing?" Could it be that this girl is so ashamed and anxious that she wants to go tell the old master?

  "Lend me a brush and I won't believe it if I lose to you. I'd like to see how this goose feather pen can write characters."

  "Slow down... I'm not seeing you off... goodbye, it's best if we don't meet again. Little girl, just looking at you makes me angry...... Green Butterfly, what are you hiding here for?" As soon as I turned my head around, I saw that Green Butterfly was standing behind me, with her ears perked up and a strange expression on her face.

  "The slave is going to change the tea leaves..." The little girl held up a teapot and swayed it, making an excuse.

  "Just now this young master was... warming up his voice, understand?" Glaring fiercely at Green Butterfly with a vicious gaze, this little scoundrel.

  "Don't worry, young master, I can keep a secret..." An innocent face, innocent eyes, it's heart-wrenching to look at.

  Very satisfied with this girl's performance, the joke I made earlier is forgotten. As soon as I turned around and went back to the house, Qing Die's voice echoed faintly: "Young Master... what is 'bye-bye'?"

  "My goodness, Green Butterfly is really not gossiping until the end. Suddenly turning around, staring: "It's just goodbye, it's the meaning of farewell, got it? Young master I learned from Hu Renxue, what's wrong?"

  "Oh..." The green butterfly happily hugged the teapot, twisted its small body and walked away, all the way still muttering: "Goodbye to you... Goodbye..."

  She leaned back on the couch weakly, this girl is done for...

  Lying on the couch for a while, he suddenly remembered that Li Ke had asked Li Hu to come over and discuss something three days later - hunting. He couldn't help but sit up excitedly, thinking about what he needed to prepare for the hunt. But then he thought, "Damn it, I'm just a commoner from a later generation, I've never actually gone hunting before." Should he grab someone to ask? No, that wouldn't do - he had his pride. Hunting was simple, just do it, and first write up a plan.

  Hunting, huh? Got to have a bow and arrow, and ride my precious horse. Gotta wear the sword at my waist to look cool. Hmm... what else? Ah yes, seasonings for roasting meat, gotta prepare those too. What's more... damn it, I slapped my forehead: "Green Butterfly!"

  "The slave girl is..." A beautiful young green butterfly appeared, her big eyes shining brightly.

  "This young master is going to do something great today, to be a pioneer in the forefront of the times and fashion... Stop it, I'm not burning, young master!"

  ---

  "Uh-huh, not bad...just that sheep smell is a bit strong." Stretched out both hands, gestured twice, not bad. Although these sheepskin gloves look a bit ugly and don't fit very well, at least they have five finger stalls, soft leather, feel good on the hands. Now I'm not afraid of those damn reins hurting my delicate little hands.

  "Young master, what's the use of this... hand warmer?" Green Butterfly blinked her eyes in puzzlement.

  "This isn't a hand muffler, this is a glove, a leather glove, get it?" I grinned, feeling very pleased with myself, after all, it was something I had designed personally.

  "Oh... Young Master, why did you do that?" Green Butterfly's cleverness can satisfy my desire to show off.

  "Do you know? Using this thing may prevent your hands from getting scratched, and wearing it in winter can keep your hands warm and won't get frostbite..."

  "Oh... Young Master is really capable, Young Master..." Green Butterfly was very happy, her Young Master had finally become clever.

  "...do you need to be so moved? Green Butterfly, are your family members still around?" Found it strange. But in his heart, it was warm and cozy. In this household, apart from Father and Mother, as well as that elder brother who shared the same mother as him, perhaps only this little maid was the most considerate towards him. Many things could be told to her, regardless of whether she believed them or not, she would always open her beautiful big eyes and listen quietly.

  "I'm just a lowly servant... I don't have any family, the east of the river was hit by disaster, my parents left when I was five years old, luckily I had my distant uncle and Master... that's how I entered the Fang household..." Green Butterfly's voice choked with sobs.

  "Oh..." Zhang's mouth opened wide, unsure of how to comfort her.

  "Ever since I entered the Fang household, it's been much better than when I was at home, and...and Young Master, you never scold or beat me, I..." Green Butterfly's expression was a bit dazed, but her eyes looking into mine were very clear and serious.

  "Afterwards, when there's no one around, don't always call me 'old servant' all the time, it's really annoying." Hearing a sentence or two still feels fresh, but hearing Qing Die refer to herself like that makes my heart feel sour and stuffy.

  "Yes, young master..." The soft voice was like cotton candy. Her pale green dress really matched her name, Green Butterfly.

  My heart is racing wildly, I really can't stand the sight of a beautiful and delicate girl, it's too tempting. I'm not a lolicon, I must stay sober.

  "Tomorrow, I have to go hunting..." Hurriedly turned around, let Green Butterfly go find a longbow, Green Butterfly struggled to bring it out from behind, as soon as I saw this thing, how is it as thick as a wooden stick? It really scared me: "Is this a bow?..."

  "Yes... Young Master, you specifically instructed the housekeeper to get a new four-stone bow from Shinshu last month... It turns out that three-stone bow was broken by you... The expression of Green Butterfly's little MM is very sincere, not like she's deceiving me, but... In the Tang Dynasty, one stone is over 50 kilograms, two stones are over 100 kilograms? A three-stone bow wouldn't... And now this four-stone bow? ... Buddha, could it be that Fang Yi'ai has a barbarian bloodline? The first person in the Fang family to exhibit a return to ancestral traits?"

  Do I have that much strength? Never tried before, but with a burst of energy: "Give me..." Take it over, and it's quite heavy in hand. "Wow wow wow..." Gritting my teeth, using all my might, even the strength from when I was breastfeeding is being used, and it's working! This small body is indeed sturdy, and the 4-stone bow can be drawn open, although my face is beet red. It feels so fulfilling... Who would have thought that in my past life, carrying a 40-50 kg bag of rice up to the second floor left me panting like a dying dog, but I actually possess such incredible strength? Awesome!

  "The house was... " Seeing a tall shadow coming over from outside the window, without thinking, he quickly shouted out loud.

  "The little one is here." Fang Cheng walked in with a weapon in his hand.

  It's about one meter long, with a blade on one side and a thick back on the other. "Huh... Tang knife?" Awesome, national treasure, this is the real deal.

  "Master... this is not a Tang knife, it's an obstacle knife, specifically used for self-defense..." Fang Cheng's face turned red, was he blushing for me? Ignore him!

  "Isn't this knife also known by several other names?" I asked curiously.

  "The sword worn by the old master when he goes to court is called a ceremonial sword, the one worn during hunting or outings is called a barrier sword, and the one worn by our Great Tang Prefectural Army is called a horizontal sword. The smaller ones are also for prefectural army..." Fang Cheng seems to be a hot-blooded young man who loves military affairs.

  Carefully examining the horizontal knife wrapped with silver threads in his hand, the blade has no arc degree, the back of the blade is nearly one centimeter thick, and the thickest part near the handle gradually decreases evenly to the tip. The tip is curved, but the guard between the handle and the blade is... simply no defensive power at all, too small, only slightly wider than the scabbard...

  I'm excitedly holding the weapon that represents the peak of the Tang military development, standing outside the house, raising my knife and shouting three times, swishing and swashing, showing off my crazy devilish knife skills. The knife skills are not bad! Under my knife, a bunch of withered branches and fallen leaves are scattered all over the ground, making House look at me with eyes wide open in shock, his face pale, not understanding the beastman tribe's war dance art.

  "That's it, the autumn hunt is just in time. Also, House Cheng, prepare a few more quivers of arrows. I, Young Master, want to sweep away all four-legged creatures in Chang'an, hahaha..."
