777, follow me obediently

Zuo An is not a person who gives in easily, nor is he a simple-minded fool. Even if Feng Qingchen wants to play the good cop, he has to find the right time, otherwise Zuo An would rather break than bend.

The Ninth Prince had come to help Feng Qingchen conquer Zuo An, so of course he would not be stubborn with Zuo An. Facing the red-faced and angry Zuo An, the Ninth Prince was very magnanimous and did not continue to tangle with him, but looked at him calmly.

Feng Qingchen let the two handsome men stare at each other until cold sweat broke out on Zuo An's forehead, then he gently persuaded the Ninth Uncle: "Don't bother with Zuo An. Looking at his heroic figure jumping off the tower that day, you can tell that he hasn't made anything good in these years. Why waste your thunder bombs to blow up the place where he stores his garbage?"

Rubbish?

After Feng Qingchen said this, Zuo An almost vomited blood. What did he mean by garbage? That was the secret room he had spent countless energy and money to build, how could it be garbage.

Zuo An was about to yell at Feng Qingchen and ask her to learn some lessons, but the Ninth Prince nodded seriously: "That makes sense."

Zuo An was completely furious, pointing at the Ninth Prince and yelling, "Reasonable? What reason is there? Who said that what I made was rubbish? My tower jumping kite has been repaired. Tomorrow, I will jump for you to see. This time, it will definitely succeed."

Zuo An said it with certainty, but his flickering eyes revealed the uncertainty in his heart.

"Success? With your ability, if you jump down without dying, can that be called a success?" Feng Qingchen teased.

"Of course not, my goal is to make sure that ordinary people will not die if they jump down." Speaking of ideals, the light emanating from Zuo An's eyes can blind ordinary people.

Feng Qingchen knew that Zuo An and the medical madman who was the master of Xuanyi Valley were both Frankensteins. To convince such people, one had to come up with something that would convince them.

"Zuo An, no matter how big your kite is, there's no way an ordinary person can jump off it without falling to death." Feng Qingchen understood that what Zuo An wanted to make was probably something like a parachute.

It is not impossible to use a large kite, but Zuo'an did not consider the issues of material and wind force when making it.

Feng Qingchen had seen the big kite made by Zuo An. It was just an ordinary, enlarged version of a kite. It was not made of light materials at all, not to mention considering issues such as wind resistance. Zuo An's failure was beyond doubt.

“Just because it’s impossible now doesn’t mean it will be impossible in the future. One day, I’ll be able to make ordinary people jump from a height without falling to their death.” This is the persistence of research maniacs. They firmly believe in their ideas and work hard for them.

"In the future? How many years from now? When you are old and gray and can't walk?"

"Of course not. I believe this day won't be too far away." Zuo An was full of confidence. Feng Qingchen didn't want to discourage him, but for the sake of his own plan, he had to say, "It really won't be too long. I can achieve your ideal now. I can make ordinary people jump from a high place without falling to death."

Feng Qingchen looked at Zuo An with a smile on his face, waiting for his reaction.

As Feng Qingchen expected, Zuo An opened his mouth wide after hearing this, and then shook his head repeatedly: "Impossible, impossible, I don't believe it, I haven't thought of a solution, what can you think of?"

"Believe it or not, you will know after trying it. How about we take a gamble?" Feng Qingchen smiled brightly, but she couldn't hide the gleam of success in her eyes.

"Bet? What to bet on? How to bet?" Zuo An was indeed hooked.

"I bet that I will jump off the Wenfeng Tower and nothing will happen. If I win, return my gun to me. If I lose, the gun belongs to you." Feng Qingchen pointed at the pistol that Zuo An had hidden behind him and had taken apart.

Zuo An moved his steps guiltily and hid the gun behind him more tightly: "No, this bet is unfair. This gun is the price you pay for living here. It should have been mine."

Feng Qingchen didn't bother with him. Zuo An was going to lose anyway: "Then let's do this. If I win, return the gun to me. If I lose, I'll help you put the gun back in place."

Don't think that just because she hid behind him, she didn't know that Zuo An had dismantled the gun.

Zuo An hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Okay."

"It's settled then. After I recover from my injury, we will go to Wenfeng Tower." Feng Qingchen said straightforwardly.

Therefore, before Feng Qingchen recovered from his injuries, the Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen stayed at Zuo An's residence with peace of mind, and Zuo An protected their safety.

The Jinyiwei outside were so anxious that they were about to jump up and down. How come no one had come out for more than ten days? If they hadn't seen the Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen come out every day, they would have suspected that the two had left long ago.

Knowing that the enemy was right before their eyes, they did not take the enemy seriously at all. I don't know whether the Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen thought too highly of Zuo An, or they thought too little of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.

The Jinyiwei people guessed that Feng Qingchen and the Ninth Prince intended to seek refuge in the Left Bank. After they had been hiding outside for more than ten days, the Jinyiwei people finally made a move.

Early in the morning, the Prime Minister's residence sent someone to invite Zuo An, saying that Lord Zuo Xiang missed him. Zuo An was very disrespectful and threw the person out without even listening to the words.

The next day, someone from the Princess's Mansion came to invite Zuo An again. This time, Zuo An hesitated for a moment, and then followed them to the Princess's Mansion, because the person who came was none other than the old nanny who took care of Zuo An when he was a child.

With Zuo An gone, the Jinyiwei had no more scruples. With a single gesture, hundreds of Jinyiwei rushed forward, filling up Zuo An's small courtyard. But...

"Your Excellency, no one is here."

"Your Excellency, no one is here."

…

Those who went in to search came back empty-handed. The Jinyiwei made such a big scene, but in the end they didn't find even a mosquito. The deputy commander who was in charge of the breakout incident had an uglier face than if he had eaten feces.

Feng Qingchen and the Ninth Prince, who were being closely watched by the Embroidered Uniform Guards, were now on the Wenfeng Tower, waiting for Zuo An's arrival. The two were bored, so they stood on the top of the Wenfeng Tower to look at the scenery of Xiling.

The wind was strong on the top of the tower, and the Ninth Prince was worried that Feng Qingchen would catch a cold, so he held her in his arms. Feng Qingchen did not refuse, and leaned in the Ninth Prince's arms like a little bird, admiring the beautiful scenery of Xiling and taking in the entire Xiling Palace.

For a moment, Feng Qingchen thought that if there was a sniper lying in ambush on the Wenfeng Tower, it would be easy to kill the target person in seconds. Of course, Feng Qingchen was just thinking about it. She didn't even have an AK47, so how could she dare to think about a sniper rifle?

By the time the two of them waited for Zuo An to arrive, it was already dark. As soon as Zuo An came up, he saw the Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen sitting on the edge of the tower, leaning on each other. With just a slight push, he could push the two down.

These two people are really brave.

Aren’t they afraid that the Jinyiwei will come after them? This position is not suitable for counterattack at all.

"Ahem..." Seeing that the two men ignored him for a long time, Zuo An coughed.

Feng Qingchen and the Ninth Prince smiled at each other. They had known for a long time that the person coming was Zuo An. They kept silent just to test Zuo An and see how long he could endure. In the end...

Zuo An really lives up to his reputation as a research madman.

As time was running out, Feng Qingchen and the Ninth Prince stopped teasing Zuo An. They stood up and walked towards Zuo An. Feng Qingchen handed a small bundle to Zuo An and said, "In order to prevent you from accusing me of cheating, let's jump together."

By the way, I took the opportunity to run away...
