Chapter 105 - The Way of the Other

Xiang Yun returned to his own tent with a helpless look on his face. Seeing Lin Wan'er, who was secretly laughing behind her back, he rubbed his nose in embarra.s.sment, thinking to himself, "In the future, I won't be asking for trouble with Xiang Fei anymore. I'll really choke myself to death."

Xiang Yun was truly unable to fathom his cousin's temper. He had just come to ask Lin Wan'er, who was also a woman, for guidance.

"You can't tell me that," Lin Wan'er said with a smile.

"Why can't I say it? Aren't you a girl?"

"Ugh …"

Xiang Yun was completely speechless. All he could do was viciously smack himself on the head.

Just as the great heir Xiang was lamenting about his ill-fated fate, the City Lord Lu Yongchang's voice came from outside the tent.

He then saw City Lord Lu carrying a stack of armors and carrying a crossbow into the tent.

"Your Highness, it's hard to avoid a horse galloping when you're hunting without armor. I saw that you weren't wearing any armor just now, so I ordered someone to bring a set of soft armor along with this powerful bow. Although it's not a cloud weapon, it's still a good pine bow."

So it turned out that City Lord Lu had actually sent hunting equipment to Xiang Yun.

However, Xiang Yun smiled helplessly and said, "Many thanks for the City Lord's good intentions, but I don't plan on hunting today. I just wanted to take a look at the scenery of the mountains and rivers.

This time, it was City Lord Lu who was stunned. How could he have expected the crown prince to have such a whimsical idea? Sitting in a carriage on the hunting grounds and enjoying the scenery was truly unique and unique.

"Your Highness, since you've come to the hunting grounds, you can't be so straightforward. You have to try out the feeling of riding a galloping horse through the prairie. How about this, this official will prepare a good war horse for you."

"But this horse doesn't run as fast as a war horse."

"Uh, alright then." The mayor bitterly smiled and nodded.

There was nothing that could be done. The people who came were the relatives of important characters, so no one could look down on them. They wanted him, the city lord, to personally go and greet them. He was so busy that he couldn't open his mouth.

Xiang Yun personally escorted Lu Yongchang out of the tent. Just as he was about to turn around and return, he actually caught a glimpse of two sneaky figures secretly hiding in a corner not far from his tent.

Xiang Yun furrowed his brows at the sight before walking forward without batting an eyelid, pretending not to notice. He recognized one of the two people, it was Li Dong Lai, who had been beaten up by him back at the east gate of Qin Feng City.

Seeing the two of them acting so sneakily, Xiang Yun immediately became vigilant.

Immediately, he quietly moved to the back of the tent. Using the cover of the other tents, he quickly approached the tent where Li Donglai and Li Jun were.

Xiang Yun relied on his superior hearing to listen and heard Li Dong Lai say with a sinister laugh, "Brother Deng, let's act now. This time we must kill Xiang Yun and that d.a.m.n fatty, hehe."

Hearing this, Xiang Yun's face immediately darkened. As expected, he had long since expected that the An Lin Party would definitely not let this matter rest. He had not expected them to be scheming against Fatty Niu and him.

Xiang Yun was not in a hurry. He only followed behind the two of them quietly, wanting to see what tricks they could come up with.

He followed closely behind the two men, only to see that they had actually sneaked all the way to the camp's stables.

This was where the horses were kept in the hunting camp. Many of them were eating gra.s.s to replenish their strength, but there were no guards around.

"What are these two doing here?"

Li Donglai and w.a.n.g Qiong pretended to be watching a horse as they quietly took out a small black bottle.

The latter walked to the manger and looked around. Seeing that no one was around, the young man who came with Li Dong quickly carried a bundle of gra.s.s and stuffed it into the manger.

As for Li Donglai, he hurriedly picked up the black bottle and took out the stopper. The bottle mouth faced the gra.s.s violently as a handful of light yellow powder drifted out from the black bottle and sprinkled onto the gra.s.s.

After doing all of this, the guilty Li Donglai and Li Xueyi immediately turned around and left. They still had their hands behind their back and pretended as if they hadn't done anything at all.

"Hehe, there's going to be a good show later on!" As the two of them left, Li Donglai could not help but let out a sinister smile in delight. Xiang Yun had clearly heard everything from the corner.

Seeing the two leave the horse stables, Xiang Yun's body flashed as he appeared where they had been standing just a moment ago.

At this moment, the old horse pulling the carriage and the fat cow were bent over to eat the gra.s.s. Xiang Yun hurriedly pushed their heads to the side, grabbing that bundle of gra.s.s from the manger along the way.

Seeing the light yellow powder on the straw, Xiang Yun could not help but frown. He could vaguely smell a familiar scent.

He dipped a hand in some powder and sniffed lightly at the tip of his nose. A familiar smell entered his nose, causing Xiang Yun's face to instantly darken!

Xiang Yun was an expert on the Wind Moon Arena and had borrowed medicine to increase his mood. He had become a doctor after a long illness, and had become half an expert with the purchase of this aphrodisiac.

With just a light sniff, he could smell it. This was a high-grade aphrodisiac called 'One Spring Breeze'. Its effects were extremely strong!

These fellows actually gave aphrodisiacs to their own horses. It was simply treacherous to the extreme. Once these war horses got excited, they would completely lose control. Who knows, some accident might happen while they were running and broke their master's bones.

"These grandsons really do have a way to come up with something like this." Xiang Yun was so angry that the root of his teeth began to itch.

Before entering the tent, a guard outside Xiang Yun's tent whispered a few words into his ear. The latter's face immediately revealed a look of surprise, then he glanced at Xiang Yun before glancing at Lin Wan'er, who was within the tent. He immediately revealed a look of understanding.

"Crown Prince, how much do you need?"

"What!?"

"Buy as much as I tell you to. Don't talk so much nonsense!"

Xiang Yun rolled his eyes, scaring the guard awake. Not daring to say another word, he was just about to turn around and buy medicine for Xiang Yun when he was stopped by Xiang Yun.

A sinister smile appeared on Xiang Yun's face as he instructed the guard a few more times. The guard immediately revealed a puzzled expression, but he did not dare ask any further and hurriedly went to do what he was told.

Back in the tent, Xiang Yun was served by Lin Wan'er as he sipped his fragrant tea and enjoyed the treatment of being ma.s.saged by a beauty.

After about half a quarter of an hour, the guard returned. The latter had two items on his body, a black bottle the size of a vase and a fist-sized jar …

"Your Highness, everything has been settled!" The guard panted heavily, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. With his strength as a Seven Cloud Martial pract.i.tioner, he was actually exhausted to such an extent. This showed just how fast he was running.

Xiang Yun nodded his head in satisfaction and immediately rewarded the guard with a hundred taels of silver. The guard was elated and left while nodding and bowing!

"Your Highness, what are these?" Lin Wan'er's eyes were wide with curiosity as she examined the two bottles in front of her.

Immediately afterwards, Xiang Yun grabbed the black bottle and walked out of the tent!

A moment later, another hardworking figure appeared in the stables behind the tent. The latter carried a big bucket filled with water. He opened the black bottle and a bottle of milky white powder mixed in the water, turning the bucket of water the color of milk.

The latter carried a bucket of water directly to the place where the Anlin men had locked the horses up. He then poured the large bucket full of water into the manger.
