L'amour d'un mortel à travers la dynastie Song du Nord - Chapitre 29

Chapitre 29

Looking at Lin Feng now, one can only think how terrifying this woman is. She actually deceived millions of people in the world. Bei Chentian's strategy is brilliant! Who would have thought that the noble beauty was actually the seemingly cold and ruthless eccentric by his side?

"Wuhen, whatever you guess, just keep it to yourself, don't let it leak out." Beichen Tian hadn't intended to hide it from him from the start, but Lin Feng's identity was special, and it was better if fewer people knew.

Shui Wuhen's admiration for Lin Feng had risen to awe! He wondered what kind of woman she was and took a few more glances at her.

Upon noticing his gaze, Bei Chentian's eyes darkened, but he ultimately said nothing.

Lin Feng didn't care about the two of them, and just called out, "They've already left, you should come out too."

Behind the hatch, the filthy man came out. It turned out that Lin Feng, seeing that there was nowhere to hide, had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure. He dressed up as a woman and went out to scare people, so that the man could hide behind the hatch.

The prosecutor was focused on looking ahead, while Lin Feng stood there, drawing all eyes to her. Who would bother to look behind the door to see if anyone was there? Coupled with Lin Feng's open and honest attitude, even a hundred questions were dispelled. However, this was a risky move, and Lin Feng didn't want to do it again.

The man in black stepped forward and bowed to the three women: "Thank you for saving my life, young lady. I will definitely repay you if I have the opportunity in the future."

Seeing that Bei Chentian didn't speak, Lin Feng knew that he wanted her to just go all the way and tour Tianlufang under this identity, so he let him thank her. He instructed Shui Wuhen to tell people not to come in and tentatively asked.

"Young master, judging from your extraordinary martial arts skills, and the fact that you are being hunted by members of the royal family, what is your true identity?"

The man hesitated for a moment, then replied, "It's a family matter. To avoid implicating you, young lady, it's best if you don't ask."

Lin Feng's face darkened. Family matters? What family matters could he possibly have? It must be a royal issue. Has something happened to the Tianlu royal family?

Seeing the man's tired expression, Lin Feng didn't press him further, knowing he might not tell the truth anyway. He smiled and said, "I'm out doing business this time, so it's inconvenient for me to dress as a woman. Since you've seen it, just let it go. Don't mention it to outsiders. You look tired, so why don't you go wash up and rest? I'm sure things are tense outside, but we're safe here for now. Why don't you stay here, young master?"

Seeing that the man did not reply, Lin Feng knew that he was still wary. Suddenly, Bei Chentian spoke up from the side.

"Miss wouldn't harm you if she asked you to stay. We've already let you stay, and if the people outside find out, we won't escape responsibility either. So just rest assured."

The man was taken aback for a moment before thanking her. Shui Wuhen immediately arranged a place for him. The man said his name was Mu Feng and that he would definitely thank her in the future before leaving.

Once most of the people had left, Bei Chentian suddenly said to Lin Feng, "This trip isn't for sightseeing; I actually plan to take over Tianlvfang."

Lin Feng glanced at him, seemingly unsurprised: "When have you ever run around without a plan? I know that even if you don't say it, otherwise you would have gone back to Beichen after shaking off Yi Beifei. Tianlufang is about to change hands, isn't it?"

"The last time Beichen received news from them was that the Emperor was seriously ill. Tianlu Fang is the leading land and water nation west of Beichen. If the next ruler cannot submit to Beichen, Beichen will suffer significant losses, both militarily and commercially. Originally, my plan was to come and negotiate after Tianlu was stable, but due to unforeseen circumstances, I have come here when other countries are in chaos. It would be better to resolve this directly to avoid any unforeseen complications later."

"Now that you've met that Mu Feng, you want to start with him, right?" Lin Feng thought for a moment and also thought this method was feasible: "Actually, Tianlu is just a small country. If Beichen puts pressure on them, they might not be afraid of surrendering. However, some princes are inexperienced and may not know their place. If you send troops, your forces will be tied down, and the Eastern countries may not be able to take it down. You will face considerable difficulties."

The advantage of talking to intelligent people is that you say one sentence, and they can come up with many more ideas to follow.

Bei Chentian suddenly changed the subject: "However, I suddenly feel playful right now. Would you like to come with me for a stroll in the streets?"

"Do you want to attract attention?"

"Not at all," Bei Chentian said jokingly. "I just wanted to tailor a suitable set of women's clothing for Miss, so that she won't be left without it when she needs it."

Lin Feng rolled her eyes, wanting to kick him in the face. Why did he have to smile so beautifully for no reason! She increasingly felt that Bei Chentian was truly insidious! Even his smile was so lewd!

Chapter Thirty-Two: Shopping

Lin Feng and Bei Chentian were quite eye-catching walking down the street. One was handsome and tall, the other cold and aloof, both dressed in fine clothes and jade belts, looking like young masters from wealthy families. There were searchers everywhere on the street, but seeing their attire, no one dared to approach and ask questions, for fear of disturbing the sons of powerful families.

Lin Feng said in a low voice, "Judging from the situation on the street, he won't be able to get off the ship anytime soon. I'm just worried that the search officer might go back and talk nonsense if he's startled by me. I'm afraid there are too many idle young noblemen here, and I can't afford to entertain them."

“That’s easy. Just say you’re her brother, and that her father missed his daughter and sent her back. You can run the business around here, and that’ll do.” Bei Chentian’s gaze swept over the stalls, looking somewhat indifferent.

"As long as that person stays on the ship, that's fine. Right now, you have no soldiers at your disposal. Even if you were a war god, you'd be all show and no substance, with no real use." Lin Feng was quite interested in the trinkets on the street, stopping to look at them again and again. After all, she was a woman from the 21st century; she had to go shopping at least once, right?

Suddenly, I came across a deep alley. These kinds of alleys are common on bustling streets, but this one was dark and gloomy.

"Young man, that's a dead end. There used to be a house there, but it was burned down. There are high walls all around, nothing to see. Come and see if there's anything you like to eat here." The old woman selling tea eggs and white fungus soup while fanning her stove also kept her eyes on the two of them, which showed how attractive they were.

Lin Feng ordered a bowl of white fungus soup and said while eating, "This place really has everything."

Bei Chentian seemed to be thinking: "If we had ambushed them at that spot, I'm afraid very few would have made it back." The alleyway was so narrow that only one person could pass at a time. If the entrance were blocked, it would have been an impregnable fortress!

Lin Feng rolled his eyes at him, annoyed: "If you're here to have fun, then have fun. Why do you keep bringing up your military affairs? Do you want everyone to know you're a war god?"

Bei Chentian also felt that he might have gone a bit too far, so he shrugged and laughed without replying.

"Tsk t ...

Bei Chentian was lost in thought when he saw that she liked the pendant. He smiled and turned to ask the girl selling pendants.

"How many?"

"Sir, you have excellent taste! This pendant is the most beautiful of all the ornaments, carved from the finest malachite. It's a small business; I'll sell it for fifty coins." Tianlu had seen many merchants coming and going, and the young girl, being worldly-wise, didn't stammer in front of the two men; she spoke fluently and clearly. She thought to herself, "These two young gentlemen are truly handsome!"

Bei Chentian was too lazy to negotiate the price, so he took out some loose silver to pay, only to find that Lin Feng had already excitedly taken the items to another stall.

Bei Chentian chuckled inwardly. How could she be so sure he would pay? Was she accompanying him shopping or was it the other way around? However, in this respect, she finally acted a bit more like a woman.

Narrowing his eyes, Lin Feng gave him a rather subtle feeling. Perhaps it was because her attitude towards him wasn't overly respectful, fearful, or obsequious; it was like treating an ordinary person, like a friend…

Although their motto was "better to die than lose," it rarely came to that. They still needed to have friends, regardless of their motives. Being with her was incredibly relaxing. She didn't need to suppress herself and play the arrogant king, nor did she need to explain everything clearly, because Lin Feng was intelligent enough for her to understand him.

That's why he made exceptions for Lin Feng time and time again. If ordinary people spoke so disrespectfully to him, they would at least have been exiled for life!

And indeed, she still had two sacred artifacts in her possession, one on her person and the other missing. For the time being, he was helpless against this woman and could only feel half happy and half annoyed by her intellect.

In this regard, Lin Feng's understanding was basically the same as his. Perhaps Lin Feng was stubborn and refused to admit it, but the reason she could stand by Bei Chentian's side was because his attitude was not as strange as others.

I didn't want to be too lonely in this world, so I came together with someone similar to me.

Lin Feng had a great time. He had seen many ancient stories in movies and on TV, but nothing was as immersive as experiencing them firsthand. He had been in Yin Sang for a while now, busy settling down and dealing with dangers, and hadn't had time for these things. Now that everything was on track, he could relax.
