Li Feng couldn't help but laugh: "He really went out to play? Forget it... Jiangnan Spring Tea has just been sent here. Go ask someone to give him some. When he returns, tell him to write me a sign for my palace in the North."

Zhu Little Feet promptly responded, no need to mention it any further — he felt that this was already enough.

In the afternoon of the same day, the Northwestern guardian station sent an 800-mile expedited letter, stating that there were unusual changes at the border, the Black Iron Camp refused to listen to the Drumming Order, and detained Governor Meng, so on and so forth.

Emperor Long An recalled the old days. He picked up the matter, then gently placed it down. He only sent people to scold He Rong Hui for ignoring the laws, cut a bit of salary as punishment just for the sake of it, and instructed the Black Iron Camp to continue strictly guarding the border.

Chang Geng had difficulty finding the right time to go to the hot springs in the Northern suburbs to fill Gu Yun in on what followed, only to see that Gu wrapped in a bathrobe, two feet soaked in the hot spring, a cup in hand, and two beautiful waitresses on the side massaging his shoulders, as blissful as living in heaven.

Gu Yun used the excuse of leaving to recuperate, and staying true to his words, he was wholeheartedly 'recuperating'.

This half-deaf wasn't able to hear anyone coming in, tilting his head to whisper something to the young miss next to him. There was no telling what he had said; the waitress did not speak up, only laughed, her face blushing bright red.

Chang Geng: "..."

Gu Yun saw that the waitress's blushing face was very adorable, almost wanting to raise his hand to touch. The hand was just lifted up halfway through when he saw the two girls quickly paying courtesy to someone, and automatically retreating.

Gu Yun wasn't able to see who had arrived when he turned back, searching around for his liuli glass and placing it on his nose bridge.

As he saw Chang Geng, this old but not proper character did not feel embarrassed at all, even happily calling him over, climbing up lazily: "I haven't been able to rest for a long time, all my bones went crisp from lying."

Chang Geng: "...Perhaps it wasn't crisp only from lying?"

As the words left his mouth, he instantly felt regret.

"Huh?" Gu Yun did not seem to hear it, asking with a perplexed face, "What?"

Somehow, Chang Geng remembered that this person always could not hear what he did not want to hear when he and Shen Yi were disguised as hermits living in the town of Yanhui.

He was already originally an expert in playing dumb*. Once pretending not to hear, he was even more powerful, like a tiger with wings.
