Traveling through the busy farmland of a peasant girl

Chapter 212: Bringing Koi Out of the Space

The little carp nodded its head repeatedly, its white beard swaying up and down. It spoke in a resonant and deliberately low voice, "Sister Li, don't worry! I'll definitely remember this."

Shen Li shook her head helplessly, stretched out her index finger and waved it in front of Xiaoli, saying earnestly: "You must always remember that after you go out, I am your apprentice, but don't call me Sister Li anymore, you must not let it slip."

Xiaoli quickly nodded again, clasped his hands together, bowed slightly, and responded respectfully, "Yes, disciple! Master will follow your instructions!"

He looked like an old man with a fairy-like demeanor, but the occasional hint of intelligence in his eyes gave people a hint of koi.

Shen Li looked at Xiaoli's expression, feeling neither amused nor helpless. She raised her hand to support her forehead and continued, "If you can't answer someone's question, don't panic. Just stand still, gaze deeply into their eyes, and keep your expression serious and mysterious. Act unfathomable, making them uneasy under your gaze. Wait until they are intimidated by your aura and dare not ask any further questions. Then, you can slowly speak and say, 'The secret cannot be revealed.' This way, you can cleverly resolve the crisis. Remember?"

Seeing that the little koi had understood, Shen Li waved her hand and the two of them appeared in Shen Li's room.

Shen Li already had a plan in mind, and she decided to lead the little koi to Fuxi Tower first.

In her opinion, as long as her "master" Xuanfeng Sanren showed up once in Fuxi Tower, the news would spread quickly throughout half of the Beichen capital as if it had wings.

The Fuxi Building was a gathering place for dignitaries and scholars in the city, and it was an excellent place for the spread of news.

With full of anticipation and a hint of uneasiness, Shen Li slowly walked out of the house, leading the little koi, which had transformed into a white-bearded old man.

The maid Zhao Yue was guarding diligently in front of the room. When she saw this scene, she was so shocked that her eyes widened, her mouth opened slightly, and she almost screamed out.

But she quickly came to her senses, knelt down hastily, and with a puzzled look in her eyes, she asked softly, "Miss, how are you? Who is this old gentleman?"

Her mind was in a tangle, and she wondered to herself: I've been concentrating on guarding the young lady's room. Where on earth did this old man with a white beard come from? Could it be that I was just distracted and neglected him? But this was too unbelievable.

Shen Li looked calm. He gently raised his hand and said calmly, "This is my master, Xuanfeng Sanren. He has been in seclusion for a long time and has now returned. You don't have to be surprised. My master and I are going to Fuxi Tower. Please go and inform my parents and others quickly. Don't let them worry."

Shen Li's voice was clear and pleasant, yet it carried an unquestionable majesty.

Zhao Yue hurriedly bowed and replied respectfully, "Yes, Miss." Although she still had doubts in her heart, she did not dare to ask any more questions and could only do as she was told.

Afterwards, Shen Lilian walked into the courtyard with light and graceful steps. She glanced around and saw the groom Xie Si who was adjusting the reins beside the stable.

She raised her chin slightly and shouted in a clear voice with a tone that left no room for doubt: "Xie Si, come here for a moment."

Hearing the call, the groom Xie Si quickly put down his work, trotted all the way to Shen Li, and bowed respectfully: "Miss, what can I do for you?"

Shen Li gently raised her hand and pointed at Xuanfeng Sanren, who was transformed from a small koi, and said, "I want to go to Fuxi Tower with my master Xuanfeng Sanren. You should prepare the carriage quickly and don't delay." After that, she walked to where the carriage was parked, stretched out her hand and gently stroked the body of the carriage. The exquisite carvings slid across her fingertips, as if checking whether the carriage was intact.

Xie Si did not dare to delay and quickly turned and rushed to the stable. He skillfully untied the reins and led out a tall horse with bright fur and extraordinary majesty.

The horse neighed softly and stamped its hooves on the ground restlessly. The coachman soothed it gently and then harnessed the horse to the carriage.

His hands were as nimble as a swimming fish, tying the ropes and belts everywhere quickly and accurately. Every movement was clean and neat, obviously he was well-trained.

Then, Xie Si swiftly picked up a clean rag and carefully wiped the seats and windows of the carriage to ensure that the interior was spotless.

He also did not forget to take out a soft cushion from under the car, patted it gently, and placed it on the seat so that Shen Li and Xuanfeng Sanren could sit more comfortably.

Shen Li stood aside, quietly watching the busy figure of the groom Xie Si, with a hint of satisfaction in her eyes.

When Xie Si was ready, he came to Shen Li again and said humbly, "Miss, the carriage is ready. Please get in with Xuanfeng Sanren."

Shen Li nodded slightly, turned to the little koi and said, "Master, let's go."

Then he got on the carriage first, and Little Koi followed closely behind. After the two of them sat down, the coachman waved his whip, and the carriage started slowly, heading towards Fuxilou. The wheels rolled, raising a light cloud of dust.

Shen Li sat in the car, closed her eyes slightly, and thought silently about the various situations that might happen next in Fuxi Building. The little koi looked at the street scene outside curiously through the car window, full of anticipation for the upcoming "adventure".

More than half an hour passed slowly with the rhythmic rumbling of wheels, and the carriage gradually approached Fuxi Tower.

Finally, under the instructions of the parking lot staff, the carriage stopped steadily in a unique place - Shen Li's exclusive parking lot.

This parking lot is quite large and is cleverly divided into many exclusive parking spaces.

The parking spaces are appropriately spaced, the ground is flat and paved with neat bricks and stones, and some flowers and green plants are carefully arranged around it, which not only adds a touch of elegance but also cleverly divides the area.

There are several particularly conspicuous parking spaces with exquisite signs next to them, which read "Bai Jin County Magistrate" and other words. These are reserved for special guests of Fuxilou.

In addition to these, there are many parking spaces that were purchased at great expense by the ladies and young ladies of the wealthy families in the city. The parking spaces are decorated with unique emblems representing their respective families, or inlaid with dazzling gems, or carved with exquisite patterns, all of which demonstrate the dignity and luxury of the owners.

The carriage slowly drove into the parking space belonging to Shen Li. The ground of the parking space was painted with a totem unique to the Shen Li family with special paint, which emitted a faint glow under the sunlight.

Shen Li looked through the car window at the various exclusive parking spaces, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and her heart was full of pride in her own creation.

The little koi fish was like a curious baby, with its eyes wide open, looking around through the car window, deeply attracted by the scene full of novelty and wealth. Even under its serious appearance disguised as "Xuanfeng Sanren", it could not hide its curiosity and excitement, as if it was about to jump out of the carriage to find out what was going on.
