"fine."

Lu Yi lifted up his Confucian robe and sat on the chair. He picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started eating in small bites.

Did this kid find something wrong?

Seeing Lu Yi's appearance, Lu You thought secretly in his heart.

Then he turned and looked at Wen Chengbo next to him.

"Second Young Master, aren't you curious about where this black panther came from?"

"I'm not curious." Wen Chengbo shook his head while chewing his food and said, "My eldest brother said you have it, so you must have it. As for whether you caught it or bought it, what does it have to do with me?"

This is a replica of Lu Ming!

Looking at Wen Chengbo's honest look, Lu You smiled bitterly in his heart.

She had tested Lu Ming many times, trying to find out why Lu Ming did not have any negative emotions towards her.

For this reason, Lu You would even ask Lu Ming to do some very inexplicable things, but no matter how outrageous the request was, Lu Ming would always think that his second sister's request made sense and would never think too much about it.

So Lu You has a good impression of Wen Chengbo.

However, with Wen Chengjie's plan in mind, she is now a little unsure whether the second young master of the Wen family is genuine or just pretending to be stupid.

"By the way, this afternoon, I ordered the people in the palace to find the local tyrants in the city and asked them to help you find the person, but there is still no news."

"Thank you very much." Lu You said sincerely.

"You're so polite!" Wen Chengbo replied casually, "You taught me how to hide my intentions, and Lu Yi gave me a life-saving elixir. I did such a small thing, it's not worth mentioning."

Lu You stood up, grabbed a roast chicken from the plate, reached out and tore it in half, and handed one half to Wen Chengbo.

"Second Young Master, your brother told me this afternoon that Lord Wen wants to hand over the command of the city's garrison to him. Is this true?"

Wen Chengbo took the roast chicken and was about to eat it, but was stunned by Lu You's question, and then he became even more depressed.

"real."

"Although my father holds the power over the city's garrison and is proficient in both civil and military affairs, he is the prefect after all, and his best skill is civil administration, so he has always wanted to hand over the garrison in the city."

"I wanted to take over before, but my father said that I was just a warrior and could not be of great use, so he insisted on handing the army over to my brother."

"It's just that although my brother likes the military, he likes killing people in battle more, and doesn't like sitting in a tent and leading troops."

"So until now, he has always been the commander of a thousand troops, but in fact, these defenders all listen to him."

Throughout the meal, Lu Yo had been chatting with Wen Chengbo in random places.

Wen Chengbo didn't turn around and leave the yard until he had eaten all the meat on the table.

"Lu Yi, Auntie, come to my room, I have something to tell you."

Lu You rubbed his belly and said to the two of them, then took the lead and walked towards his room.

"Little black!"

At this time, the black panther had already finished eating the goat and was sleeping on the bluestone in the yard.

Hearing Lu You's shout, the black panther opened its eyes alertly, jumped lightly, and came to Lu You with a bloody smell all over its body.

"Sleep at my door tonight. Apart from the three of us, if anyone comes near, you will bite him to death. Got it?"

The black panther tilted its head to look at Lu You for a while, then shook its body and lay down at Lu You's door and took a nap.

Lu You took Lu Yi and Widow Zhou into the house and locked the door.

In the distance, the servant of the Wen family looked over here, but just after taking two steps, he saw Black Panther looking up at him, so he quickly retracted his foot and went to clean the table in shame.

"Things are in trouble."

Sitting on the bed, Lu You looked at Lu Yi and the others with a serious expression and said.

"If Wen Xiuyuan controls the city's garrison, we will definitely not be in any danger."

"But the one who controls the military power now is Wen Chengjie, and he has set his sights on us."

"No way?" Widow Zhou whispered, "We have a relationship with Mr. Guan, and you have a jade pendant with dragon pattern in your hand. Not to mention that he is just the eldest son of the Wen family, even Mr. Wen has to respect you."

"These backgrounds are useful to those who want to curry favor with Mr. Guan, but Wen Chengjie is not one of them."

Lu You explained solemnly.

"Do you remember what I said before? This dragon-patterned jade pendant is a gift from others, so we are the guests of honor."

"But if they don't give us face, we will be thieves who stole the jade pendant. Wen Chengjie is the one who doesn't give us face."

Widow Zhou's eyes flashed with panic when she heard this: "Even if this dragon-patterned jade pendant was not given by Emperor Wu himself, if we die, Mr. Guan will naturally hold us accountable."

“Our relationship with the care students is not strong.”

Lu Yi frowned and spoke.

"Besides, it's a time of war now. Let alone plotting against us, he can just kill us and blame it on the Jin soldiers or the bandits."

Upon hearing this, Lu You reached out and took out a package and opened it on the table.

"Xiaoyi, stretch out your right hand."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yi did not hesitate and stretched out his right arm.

Lu You rolled up the Confucian robe on his arm, opened the package, took out a palm-sized iron box from it and tied it to Lu Yi's hand.

"I took this sleeve arrow from the body of a warrior when we were fighting the Jin soldiers at the east gate of Jianhe County."

"I've been hit by this thing before. It's so powerful that it can penetrate my chest even if I'm wearing armor."

"The arrow inside is specially made. There is only one shot, and it is used to save your life."

After tying the sleeve arrow tightly, Lu You picked out three thin threads from the round hole.

"There is a hidden groove on the back. When you tighten it, the crossbow string inside will be tightened. Put these three strings on your fingers. When you use it, hook your fist hard and the arrow will shoot out along the back of your hand."

"This thing is for you to deal with warriors. If we get separated, this is your only way to save your life when facing warriors. Do you understand?"

"Why did we get separated?" Lu Yi looked up at Lu You.

Lu You rolled his eyes: "How should I know? Didn't your brother, uncle and aunt all get separated? The situation is so chaotic now, who can say for sure?"

Lu You stretched out his right hand and swept it across the table, and ten powerful pills appeared out of thin air.

"Five pills per person, keep them close to your body. They are for saving your life, and you must not lose them."

As he spoke, Lu You's hand swept across the table again, and this time two translucent facial masks appeared.

"Each person has one, hidden in their sleeves. They can change their faces and heights at any time, making sure that even the mother can't tell when she comes."

"In the future, carry an extra set of loose clothes in your bag. After you change your appearance and figure, you should also change your clothes. Otherwise, it will be easy for people to suspect you."

"That's all I can give you."

"The sword is too heavy. The lightest one weighs at least two or three pounds. You can't swing it."

"I will give each of you a short blade. From today on, you must get used to having knives tied to your legs."

"If an accident happens, keeping a backup plan will give you an extra chance of survival."
