Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Chapter 834 Cunning
noon.

Fang He, who had set out first, finally returned to the City Lord's Mansion of Linzhou City safely.

After his return, everyone in the City Lord's Mansion finally quieted down.

Fang Tianyi heaved a sigh of relief when she learned that her father was fine and had returned safely. But when she came to the study and saw her father, she found that he was beaten black and blue and lying on a recliner screaming.

Fang Tianyi walked up to him and said with a distressed look on his face, "Dad, why were you beaten like this?"

"How could I be beaten like this? It was that little girl who did it. That little bitch really wanted to kill me. She beat me up pretty badly. I am the lord of a city, but I was bullied like this. I am so angry." Fang He said with gritted teeth.

"Then why did she let you go?" Fang Tianyi asked puzzledly.

She really couldn't understand what Gu Chan was up to. Previously, Gu Chan let her go first, then captured her father, and now she let him go again.

This really puzzled her.

Fang He shouted angrily, "Are you stupid? She let you go and even sent you back in person, wasn't it just to remove my guard so she could take me away? She let me go because I explained clearly and promised to buy food with her own money to help the disaster victims."

"This damn girl is so cunning, always using shady tricks. She doesn't look bad at such a young age! Who did she learn all these bad ideas from?" Fang Tianyi said with a grim face.

Now she finally understood what was going on.

But on second thought, she actually admired Gu Chan. She was obviously older than Gu Chan, but in terms of intelligence and means, she was really not as good as Gu Chan.

And most importantly, Gu Chan was very brave! She even dared to beat up the city lord. If it were her, she would never have the courage to do that.

Fang He was too lazy to say anything more and shouted angrily to the outside of the door, "Someone come here."

A guard standing guard outside the door quickly rushed in and said, "Master, what do you want?"

"Go tell Yu Qingyi to pretend to be a bandit and beat up that little girl named Gu Paner for me. Remember, don't tell him to beat her to death. Just break one of her arms." Fang He said coldly.

Without waiting for the guard to respond, he rolled his eyes and added, "By the way, tell him not to attack her in Linzhou City. Wait until she passes Linzhou City and reaches the next city."

"Yes, sir." The guard responded respectfully and left.

After he left, Fang Tianyi asked, "Dad, why do you have to wait until she reaches the next city before taking action?"

"This damn girl has some relationship with the Feng family of Xuanyue City, otherwise she wouldn't be able to get the golden letter of approval from City Lord Feng. So in order not to offend Feng Zui, it's best not to do it in our Linzhou City to avoid trouble later." Fang He said cunningly.

"You are worthy of being my father. You are really smart. I really didn't think of this." Fang Tianyi flattered him.

Fang He glared at her and cursed, "We are both women, but look at Gu Pan'er and then look at yourself. I would be thankful if you were half as smart as her. This time it was you who caused all this trouble, and you got me beaten up. I'm so mad at you." "Dad! Why are you scolding me? I didn't know those bandits were going to catch me. If you really can't swallow this, just send troops to encircle and wipe out those bandits." Fang Tianyi said dissatisfiedly.

"You know shit. Those bandits can't cause any big waves. It's much better to keep them than to go to great lengths to get rid of them. And to put it bluntly, if our Fang family comes into conflict with the Feng family of Xuanyue City in the future, they will be a great help to us in dealing with the Feng family." Fang He said with a stiff face.

Fang Tianyi was choked speechless.

She admitted that her mind was too simple and she didn't think about such complicated things at all. At the moment, she didn't want to make her father angry again, so she could only shut her mouth tactfully, squat down, massage his shoulders and legs to relieve his pain.

On the other side, when Gu Chan led the caravan to the gate of Linzhou City, it was already afternoon.

Since she had the golden pass in her hand, the soldier in charge of guarding the pass did not dare to make things difficult for her. After checking the three carriages and confirming that they were all filled with medicinal herbs, he let them pass.

After the convoy entered Linzhou City, Xuan Xiao drove the carriage and said with a worried look on his face, "Miss, City Lord Fang should have returned by now! If we continue to march through the city in such a swagger, will he send someone to stop us?"

"What's there to be afraid of? If he really sends people to stop us, I'd be happy! I'm just afraid he doesn't have the temper to do so." Gu Chan said with disdain as she rode forward on a donkey.

"He's not that afraid of you, is he?" Xuan Xiao asked doubtfully.

Gu Chan smiled faintly and said, "He is not afraid of me, he is afraid of the Feng family of Xuanyue City. Didn't you see that when he saw my golden pass document in the yard of Brother Zuo's house this morning, his face changed? This is enough to show that he and Feng Tiance don't have a good relationship. If I really have some relationship with the Feng family, wouldn't he offend the Feng family if he touched me?"

"So that's how it is. Now I understand. You are worthy of being a lady! You are really smart." Xuan Xiao praised.

"Follow me and learn slowly in the future. Don't use your little cleverness on women all day long. As a man, you should have lofty ambitions and create a big career in the future. How can you waste your life on women?" Gu Chan scolded.

Xuan Xiao was surprised and said, "Miss, this is the first time I've heard such words from a woman's mouth since I was a child! You really shocked me."

"What's so shocking about this? I'm a woman myself, and I know exactly what kind of man is worthy of a woman's admiration." Gu Chan said with a wry smile.

Xuan Xiao nodded without comment.

At this moment, he also made a decision in his heart that he would really learn strategies from Gu Chan in the future so that he could achieve great things in the future and never do anything that is against the law of nature again.

Gu Chan didn't dwell on this matter any more, and instead urged, "Stop talking, speed up and leave quickly. We can't stay here for long. After we pass Linzhou City, we can slow down a bit."

"Yes, miss." Xuan Xiao and the three drivers responded in unison.

Then they stopped talking and calmed down, speeding up the carriage to cross Linzhou City.

After more than an hour, the convoy successfully passed through Linzhou City and headed towards the next city along the official road.

What Gu Chan didn't notice was that not long after they left Linzhou City, a young man dressed in coarse linen and dressed like a bandit, carrying a white sword on his back and riding a tall black tiger beast, followed them out of the city.
