Chapter 188: Gan Guo: The Best Sword



When I got home, the meal was already prepared.

Xiao Tao was waiting for Fang Zheng to start the meal. As soon as she saw Fang Zheng coming back, she hurried over to take the food.

After receiving the sword, Xiao Tao was immediately surprised: "Wow, what a beautiful sword, where did you get it, young master?"

"Put your things away first and talk about it after dinner."

As soon as Fang Zheng sat down, Bai Yi saw the situation and hurriedly said, "I'll go get the food!"

During this period, she became more and more adept at working as a maid, and it became almost an instinct.

Although the Fang family doesn’t pay much, the treatment and food are good.

On weekdays, it was Xiaotao who directed the other maids to do their work, and Bai Yi followed her around and did nothing but go shopping.

Life is beautiful!

Sometimes she is confused...

After everyone had their food served, they began to eat.

While the others were eating in small bites, Zhang Biao was holding up a rice bowl as high as a mountain and showing off his rice like crazy.

Fang Zhengyi felt that he had no appetite as he sat next to him. Today's show was too exciting, so he put down his bowl and watched everyone eat.

Xiao Tao asked in confusion, "Eat? Why not eat? Is the food I made today not tasty?"

Bai Yi was nervous because she was the one who cooked today's meal.

Fang Zhengyi calmed down and said, "I have something important to tell you. I have to go out of town."

"I have already made the arrangements. Take two people with me, and the rest of you go back to Taoyuan County. Don't stay in the capital."

Everyone put down their bowls and chopsticks upon hearing this, except Zhang Biao.

Zhang Biao was quick to notice that everyone else had stopped, so he picked up five dishes with one chopstick and stuffed them into his mouth.

He doesn't care, as he will definitely have a place wherever they go.

Xiao Tao blinked her big eyes and asked, "Where are you going? Take me with you?"

Fang Zheng waved his hand and said, "No, go back to the county."

Hearing this, Xiaotao lowered her head, looking unhappy.

"Master, I have been demoted! I am now the magistrate of Jianjiang. I will take up my post in Jianjiang within a month. Zhang Biao and Lu Fa will follow me, and the rest of you will go back to the county."

"That's it, stop staring at me and eat!"

Xiao Tao picked up the food in a disjointed manner and said dejectedly, "He was demoted. It must be because the newspaper made the emperor unhappy."

"Master, you have regressed. We never did it the second time before."

"You got that newspaper out this time and messed with them twice. I'm sure the senior officials will hate you."

Fang Zhengyi smiled bitterly: "You think I'm willing to do it!"

After saying that, he turned around and went back to his room. After a while, he took out a letter and threw it on the table.

"Let Xie Xian and the others do something. If they can't finish it, they can come back. They are still lying there!"

"A bunch of bandits and hooligans! They can't change their bad habits and still want me to clean up their messes!"

"I will skin them alive when they come back! Zhang Biao! Hang them on the city wall when they return to the county!"

Zhang Biao muttered, "Ah, I see."

Xiaotao unfolded the letter and was shocked.

"They went to rob again! Is Shen Zhaoxuan here too?"

Fang Zheng said angrily, "If it weren't for them, would I have to be so anxious? They're starting a cult! When they run out of food, they'll all turn into a mob if they can't be controlled."

"You are so bold, you really think you can go against the government with your skills!"

"If I don't find a way to get food there, the fire will eventually spread to Taoyuan County!"

Xiao Tao put down the letter and asked curiously, "Then write them a reply."

"Yes. We originally thought that after the imperial court sent this batch of grain over, the situation would ease and they would come back directly."

"Now, I will go there myself."

After saying that, Fang Zhengyi suddenly burst out laughing: "Hey, these bastards always come up with something new for me!"

"Just do it, don't be afraid, just keep eating."

Bai Yi opened his mouth wide, as if he had heard something extraordinary.

A group of heartless people continued to eat, and Bai Yi couldn't eat anymore.

What on earth do these people do? They are so careless! I have been here for such a long time but still don’t understand...

After a while, Zhang Biao had eaten up all the leftovers without wasting any.

Several people sat at the table, picking their teeth and chatting.

Fang Zhengyi said proudly: "Come on, Xiaotao, bring my sword here. I will open your eyes today!"

Xiao Tao turned around to get the sword and put it on the table. Everyone gathered around.

"Look! Look! This is the precious sword from the palace of the Qian Kingdom. Even His Majesty loves it very much. How come you haven't seen it before?"

The scabbard is carved with dragons and phoenixes and inlaid with various precious jades. The hilt is a golden dragon-carved case, which looks extremely majestic.

Everyone looked at the sword in admiration.

"Ah... There are so many gems on it, it must be worth a lot of money."

“Not as good as glass!”

Bai Yi stared at the sword, feeling uncomfortable...

My father’s sword…it’s my father’s sword.

I asked my father for this sword many times, but he never gave it to me.

The past flashed back to Bai Yi's mind. His eyes turned slightly red and his hand reached out for the sword involuntarily.

Before she could touch it, a big hand snatched the sword away.

Zhang Biao held it in his hand and kept playing with it.

He said disdainfully: "Haha, fancy things are useless to me!"

"It's nothing compared to my magic weapon!"

After saying that, he drew out his sword with a clang!

A flash of sword light passed by. The sword body was made of black iron, the blade was extremely thin, and it emitted a faint cold light.

Everyone was horrified.

What a good sword! Even someone who knows nothing about swords can feel the sharpness of such a peerless sword!

Bai Yi's heart began to tremble violently.
