Song Xingzhi vivió durante el reinado del emperador Huizong - Capítulo 144
Ru Feng was overjoyed because someone had come to pick her up. Moreover, the person who came was someone she had been longing for, so she wore a smile throughout the meal. However, she kept trying to steal glances at Mu Wenchen, but she was afraid of being noticed, so she ended up sweating profusely after the meal.
After finishing his meal, Ru Feng paced back and forth in Yun Tianze's tent by himself, thinking about the tall, upright figure he had just seen. Although he was disguised, seeing his figure still made Ru Feng very happy.
Not long after, Yun Tianze returned, looking very unhappy. Seeing this, Ru Feng obediently sat to the side, not daring to provoke him any further.
Seeing her like this, Yun Tianze was both angry and amused, saying, "You've really gotten me into trouble."
Ru Feng pouted and said, "Why don't you just hand me back?" But inwardly she thought, "You can't stop me from going back tonight." However, she also knew that Yun Tianze must have gone to great lengths to maintain her peaceful life, so she was secretly grateful.
Yun Tianze walked over and tapped Ru Feng, saying, "You wish! It was hard enough to capture you, but we don't expect to get you back so easily. You know how things are set up here, so don't even think about having your people rescue you. Besides, Uncle Yun is here with such high martial arts skills."
Ru Feng frowned slightly and said, "Your Uncle Yun seems to be a bit more skilled in martial arts than me, which is why he was able to successfully bring someone like you who doesn't know martial arts to meet us last time." Of course, it was also because Ru Feng and Yu Xuan didn't want to make things difficult for Yun Tianze last time that Yun Tianze left so easily.
“So,” Yun Tianze said with a sly smile, “you should stay by my side. I won’t let anyone hurt you.”
Ru Feng frowned, slapped his hand away, and said sternly, "Don't touch me like that." In the past three days, Yun Tianze had occasionally made some intimate gestures towards her. He had done the same thing before at the academy, but back then Ru Feng didn't care about the boundaries between men and women and treated Yun Tianze like a brother or friend. But now, she had a boyfriend, and Yun Tianze seemed to have doubts about her identity, so she was unwilling to resume her previous friendly relationship with him.
But Yun Tianze didn't think so. When he saw Ru Feng's unwilling look, his face fell. Then, his eyes lit up and he had an idea.
"Ru Feng, can't you just treat me like Yun Tianze from the academy?" He pitifully clutched his chest, dressed in a fine white robe, with jet-black hair and an exquisitely beautiful face. Far from being repulsive, he possessed the beauty of Xi Shi clutching her heart.
Ru Feng sighed, "It's so good to be good-looking. Even a grown man making such a move is full of beauty."
But he said, "We can't really go back to those simple days at the academy. I can't deceive myself." This was the first time the two of them had talked about the past.
Seeing that Yun Tianze's face was very bad, even a bit dark, Ru Feng hurriedly said, "Besides, I don't even know your real name, how would I know if Yun Tianze is your real name?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Tianze quickly put away his previous displeasure and smiled, "My real name is Xuanyuan Tianze. I was born weak, and my mother said that I was able to survive because of the grace of heaven, so she asked my father to name me Tianze. The 'Yun' in my name is because my mother's surname is 'Yun', so you can still call me Yun Tianze."
Ru Feng let out an "Oh," finally understanding. Seeing that Yun Tianze didn't intend to elaborate, Ru Feng didn't dare to ask him why he came to Zi Luo Kingdom as an undercover agent.
Seeing that Ru Feng was deep in thought, Yun Tianze became a little unhappy and said, "I've already said this, so are you going to tell me or not, are you a man or a woman?"
Ru Feng snapped out of her daze, snorted, turned her head to the side, and said coldly, "So you still doubt my identity. Think about it, if I were really a girl, could I have gone to the battlefield? Who is my grandfather? Could I have deceived him for so many years? I don't have an Adam's apple because I'm a late bloomer. What are you doubting?" As she spoke, she touched her neck under her clothes. These past few days, she had deliberately chosen her clothes to try to cover her neck, but since it was summer, it made Ru Feng feel very hot and stuffy.
Yun Tianze looked at Ru Feng with a deep gaze. He could have simply called the military doctor to examine her, but what if Ru Feng really was a woman? Although he was a marshal of an enemy country, and his identity being exposed would actually benefit him, his feelings towards him... sigh, he was afraid he would have to keep the military doctor's mouth shut and prevent Ru Feng's identity from being revealed, lest it lead to his death.
Forget it, I don't care whether he's a man or a woman anyway, why be confrontational now? There's plenty of time. If he really is a woman, he won't be able to hide it for long. I might as well cultivate a good relationship with him now.
Thinking of this, Yun Tianze smiled and said, "Alright, alright, I was just saying. It doesn't matter to me whether you're male or female. Come on, since we have some free time, let's play chess."
Upon hearing this, Ru Feng breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, saying, "Alright, I haven't played chess in a long time. Let's have a game, but you have to let me win."
"Of course I'll let you have it. After all, I'm your teacher, and I need to save face for you. If you lose too badly, I'll lose face too," Yun Tianze said with a smile, personally taking out the chessboard.
Ru Feng blurted out, "I'm not that bad. Wen Chen taught me later."
Upon hearing this, Yun Tianze's face froze instantly. He stared intently at Ru Feng, his eyes flashing with unfathomable emotions, yet growing increasingly dark and menacing, as if a storm was brewing. The veins on his hand holding the chessboard were now bulging, his slender, fair hand clenched tightly, turning slightly white.
Ru Feng glanced at him, then lowered her head and asked, "Are we still going to play or not?" The name Mu Wenchen seemed to be a taboo between her and Yun Tianze. Yun Tianze was always very unhappy whenever his name was mentioned.
Since I was living under someone else's roof, I couldn't really say anything.
Yun Tianze snorted coldly, and without saying a word, he put down the chessboard and said, "Come on."
Ru Feng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard him speak, but then he was utterly defeated and left with nothing but black pieces on the board, just like someone's gloomy face.
After several rounds, Ru Feng couldn't even mount a counterattack. Looking at Yun Tianze's still sulking face, she also became unhappy. She lifted her clothes and shouted, "I'm not playing anymore, I'm not playing anymore, it's all meaningless."
She walked straight to the coffee table, picked up a bunch of grapes, and stuffed them into her mouth, juice dripping everywhere. Ru Feng, however, seemed oblivious, her eyes fixed on the door, a hint of anticipation in them. "Perhaps Chen is outside?" she wondered.
Seeing Ru Feng's heartless attitude, Yun Tianze got angry and swept everything on the chessboard to the ground. After smashing everything, he saw that Ru Feng was still unmoved, so he became even angrier and smashed the other things next to him with a "crash".
Ru Feng remained unmoved and continued eating as usual.
Upon hearing the noise, the two soldiers outside the door exchanged glances for a moment, and one of them immediately took off running. Not long after, Uncle Yun arrived, stood at the door for a while, and then called out loudly, "Your Highness, may I come in?"
Inside the door, Yun Tianze was raising a decorative vase, about to smash it, when he heard the sound and was startled awake. Seeing Ru Feng pretending not to see anything, he was furious and was about to drop the vase, but then he changed his mind and quickly regained his composure. After a while, he said loudly, "Uncle Yun, come in."
As soon as Uncle Yun entered, he saw his master casually reclining on the bed reading a book, while Yuchi Rufeng was holding a plate of grapes, looking like he was about to smash it. His eyes were wide open as he glared at his master, his face flushed red. Looking at the mess on the floor, even the vase next to him was crooked. Seeing Rufeng's angry look at Yun Tianze, Uncle Yun already had a plan in mind.
So he said coldly, "Yuchi Rufeng, don't forget your own identity. You are our prisoner now, not a high and mighty marshal. Your good life now is all thanks to His Highness. So even if you don't have the self-awareness of a prisoner, please have the self-awareness of a guest!" His tone was low and neither too loud nor too soft, and his face was very serious.
Ru Feng initially didn't want to take it seriously, but remembering that this was the other party's territory, he could only smile and his expression softened. He said, "Sorry, I was just joking with him. I put too much pressure on him, and I'm also very grateful to Tianze for everything he's done for me, so I just wanted to joke around with him. Hehe, this will help me relax a bit, right?" His words were a bit incoherent, but his smile was genuinely genuine.
Yun Tianze put down his book, nodded gently, and said, "Uncle Yun, don't worry, I'm fine." He even smiled slightly as he spoke.
Uncle Yun was taken aback. He rarely saw his master smile. He glanced at Yu Chi Ru Feng, who had been watching him, and nodded without saying anything more. He simply went out to call someone in to pack things up.
After everyone else left, Yun Tianze sneered, "Just like before, your ability to lie through your teeth is still as impressive as ever!"
Ru Feng stomped her foot angrily and glared at him. Damn it, that guy actually dared to ambush her?! Thinking of this, Ru Feng quickly and secretly wiped her lips.
This is disgusting! To resort to such a trick! I can't stand this place anymore; I'd better leave as soon as possible. Ru Feng secretly vowed.
After that, no matter what Yun Tianze said, Ru Feng only treated him politely. Yun Tianze knew that Ru Feng was still angry, so he didn't take it to heart.
As for the wind, it eagerly awaited the arrival of the third watch of the night.
Volume Two: How Many Have Returned from Ancient Battles? Chapter 117: Escape
Yun Tianze emerged, dressed neatly in an outer robe, much like his usual attire, except his face was gloomy, and his eyes betrayed a hint of anger and pain. At this moment, he didn't look at Ru Feng, but instead stared at Mu Wenchen.
Mu Wenchen's face remained calm. He glanced indifferently at Yun Tianze and the people around him, composed and at ease, as if he had not seen the gleaming weapon.
Yun Tianze's anger gradually subsided, and he looked at Ru Feng with eyes as sharp as knives.
