Let's just drift through life together in this quick transmigration story.

Chapter 738 Phoenix Returns to Its Nest (24)

Xiong Bufan had originally planned to return to Beijing that evening, but there were just too many delicious foods in the city, and he couldn't possibly visit them all in one day.

If he were to return like this, Xiong Bufan would feel somewhat regretful.

Zhou Ying and Wu Xinran were filled with despair, hoping that Xiong Bufan could go back and attend court as usual the next day.

"Your Majesty, when shall we return to the palace?"

Xiong Bufan: "You two go to all the places I've never been before, and remember to write down your observations and give them to me."

"I'm going back to the palace now. My people are waiting for me." After saying that, Xiong Bufan reached out to take the things the two men were carrying.

Zhou Ying and Wu Xinran: ...We also want to go back.

They're both exhausted after walking all day, and they have to keep going tomorrow. It's truly disheartening.

Xiong Bufan slung his things over his shoulder and ran away before the two could react.

Zhou Ying: "Your Majesty~, Your Majesty~"

Wu Xinran covered Zhou Ying's mouth. Did this person have a death wish? She actually exposed the emperor's whereabouts.

Zhou Ying was a little angry, but after realizing what was happening, she felt more genuine affection for her colleague. "What do we do now?"

"Let's find an inn to stay in first. This is the first task His Majesty has given us."

"Ah."

The capital city is too large; if we really travel like we are today, it will take a whole day.

Shangguan Yi guarded the palace, not allowing anyone to enter. There was still a vague figure on the bed, but upon closer inspection, it could be seen that it was actually a dummy wrapped in a quilt, but it looked so realistic that it could be mistaken for a real person.

This morning, when I was helping the Emperor get up, I discovered that His Majesty was missing. I looked at the note on the table and learned that he had left the palace.

The note didn't have any words on it, but rather a messy drawing that also showed when they would return to the palace.

Shangguan Yi is now afraid that he has guessed wrong and that the emperor will be kidnapped.

A sound came from the window. Shangguan Yi reached for the short sword at her waist. "Who is it?"

"I'm back. Go and prepare some food for me."

Shangguan Yi was pleasantly surprised. "Yes, Your Majesty."

After saying this, he instructed the palace servants to urge the imperial study to open, while he himself reported on his work in Xiong Bufan's bedroom, including the ministers' reactions that day.

Wang Shijun had been guarding the entrance to the bedchamber. He didn't trust anyone else to do it, so he came himself.

Seeing the palace servants carrying food into the hall, I quietly followed behind them to see what was going on.

The emperor, whom Wang Shijun had been longing to see, sat on the bed, listening to Shangguan Yi's report, seemingly without any problems.

Xiong Bufan smelled the familiar scent and looked over intently. Wang Shijun quickly looked away, standing there with his head bowed, pretending to be a lowly servant.

Kongkong never imagined that Xiong Bufan would one day act in a tragic story, and that he would be the one torturing the other person.

If the two of them were to star in a TV series and it aired on various platforms, it would definitely be a huge hit. The series could be titled either "The 99th Time the Delicate Servant Spied on the Emperor" or "The Love of the Domineering Empress."

While Kongkong was still lost in thought, Xiong Bufan had already turned his attention back and started to focus on enjoying his food.

I was so tired from running just now, this is a good time to replenish my energy.

Seeing that Xiong Bufan was no longer paying attention to her, Wang Shijun stared at Xiong Bufan greedily, wondering if she had lost weight during the day she was sick.

As a result, Xiong Bufan remained as robust and imposing as ever.

The palace servants closed the door, and only then did Wang Shijun quietly follow them away.

Xiong Bufan glanced up, then looked down again. She didn't feel there was any benefit in having a lovestruck person bothering her.

However, keeping such a thing is like keeping a small pet. As long as you don't put it in front of your eyes to administer drugs, it can be quite interesting.

The next day at court, the ministers noticed that the two attendants were not with them and wondered where they had gone, but none of them dared to ask.

Autumn events come one after another, and before long it was time to go hunting again.

The hunting grounds have changed again this year, and with the opportunity to go out for a stroll, Xiong Bufan naturally wouldn't miss it.

Zhou Ying and Wu Xinran are silently competing; when it's time to compete, they still have to compete.

Even royal sisters can turn against each other, let alone two half-sisters.

Xiong Bufan pretended not to see the undercurrents between the two and continued hunting, just like last year.

The difference is that this year, Xiong Bufan went to the hunting grounds alone.

Having learned from last year's experience, Shangguan Yi arranged for Xiong Bufan to ride in a carriage pulled by four horses, fearing that one horse would not be able to carry him.

When the carriage goes fast, it bounces around a lot.

Xiong Bufan didn't want to be confined to the carriage, so he ran outside.

Late autumn is the perfect time to travel around and enjoy the autumn atmosphere.

At Xiong Bufan's behest, Wang Shijun rode his horse at a distance behind Xiong Bufan, accompanied by Congwen and Congli, as well as a group of servants.

Wang Shijun felt his opportunity had arrived, because he believed that if His Majesty didn't love him, she would never have taken him hunting.

Xiong Bufan was actually just looking for a spectacle.

The best way to deal with someone who's obsessed with love is to play hard to get. When they feel abandoned, you contact them again, and when the contact becomes close, you distance yourself again. This way, the person obsessed with love will never leave you.

Xiong Bufan thought he was following the route map, but halfway there he found a cave-like place, and it seemed to smell like a tiger inside.

After running for so long, Xiong Bufan was also hungry.

Xiong Bufan followed the scent, kicked open the cave door, and rushed inside.

There were already people inside the cave. Seeing Xiong Bufan enter, they quickly drew their longswords and shouted, "Who goes there!"

Throughout the entire Feng Dynasty, there were still people who didn't recognize him. Xiong Bufan said, "I am the emperor."

The two men exchanged a glance, then attacked.

The fist was about to hit my face; if I didn't fight back, I'd really be bullied to the extreme.

Xiong Bufan sent the two men away with two punches, then followed the smell inside.

Deep inside the cave, there were two ferocious tigers circling incessantly in their cages. Judging from their flat bellies, they had probably been starving for a long time.

Xiong Bufan rubbed his belly, deeply terrified of going hungry, so he decided to use the tiger to fill his stomach.

The two tigers couldn't even withstand two punches from Xiong Bufan, who then hoisted them onto his shoulder and carried them back with a flourish.

Now that we've found Shangguan Yi, we should be able to find the camp.

Memorizing the route was impossible, mainly because Xiong Bufan was too lazy to use his intelligence to memorize routes and recognize directions.

Kongkong: "Bufan, don't you think something's fishy? There are hungry tigers in the royal hunting grounds."

Xiong Bufan nodded as if he understood, "It's alright, anyway, the tigers in the hunting grounds will be hunted down sooner or later."

"What I mean is that someone is plotting against you; there are spies in the court."

"Okay, there's no rush."
