Chapter 48: Morning Delivery
Opening his eyes, Feng Wu was surprised to see that the porcelain bowls and plates were gone. He turned to Feng Xiyan and said, "Master, this..."
Feng Xiyan motioned toward the incense burner and said, "The only way for Heaven to accept our offerings is through sincere prayer."
Hearing this, Feng Wu nodded and stuck the incense on the incense burner. He then clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Master, for enlightening me."
Feng Xiyan waved his hand and ordered, "You can return to your post now."
"Yes, Master." With that, Feng Wu vanished from the tent.
After Feng Wu left, Feng Xiyan performed his morning prayer before wiping his body with a wet cloth and changing into clean clothes.
After tying his hair up, Feng Xiyan wore only his daily attire and didn’t put on his armor. Carrying his sword and the mirror wrapped in red silk, he mounted his war horse and rode back to the Great General’s mansion.
Today marked the third day since the porridge stalls had been set up near the Great General’s mansion. As usual, there was a large crowd queuing in front of the stalls.
Seeing that the line stretched for several miles, Feng Xiyan ordered the servants distributing the porridge stalls to set up five additional stalls to speed up porridge distribution.
After inspecting the porridge stalls, Feng Xiyan headed to the city wall to assess the situation there.
While Feng Xiyan was busy with his morning routine, Bai Hanyun had just finished her breakfast. Before she could clean up the dishes, the goods she had ordered from Li Dagou arrived.
