The fake Wan Lao Bustard hesitated and said awkwardly, "Sixth Prince, my master set a rule when he founded the Taihang Ghost Sect. He must not reveal his true face to any outsider except in front of the members of his own clan."
"When I give you one million taels of silver later, you will be mine. As the saying goes, if you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, if you marry a dog, follow the dog. Naturally, you will no longer be considered a member of the ghost family, and you will have to Listen to me!" Chen Xiaomu said angrily.
"This is definitely not possible." The fake Wan Lao Bustard shook his head, "Back then, Ren Sangui and Master had an agreement. After I married him, he also joined our Ghost Sect. Now that you want me to leave the Ghost Sect, Master will never I will agree."
"Hmph, your master is greedy enough. He wants other people's money and his people, so let's break up. I won't do your deal!" Chen Xiaomu kicked him away angrily. A pebble at your feet.
"There is only one way now!" The fake Wan Lao Bustard said with a frown, "You follow me back to the master's gate and discuss with the master in person. Maybe things can turn around!"
"After all this going around, you still want me to follow you back to the master's gate. Didn't you just say that? I want to lead the army to fight the Qi State, and I don't have that spare time!" Chen Xiaomu said angrily: "Miss Wan, don't you want to lure me back to you? Master, is there someone who can win both money and people?"
"What are you talking about?" The fake Wan Lao Bustard glared at Chen Xiaomu and said angrily: "Our Taihang Ghost Sect is an upright sect in the world, and we will never do those dirty things. You come back with me this time, no matter what Master says. If you don’t agree, I’ll keep you safe.”
"Didn't I just say that? The military situation on the border between Zheng and Qi is currently raging. I can't delay even one day. Why can't you understand human speech?"
The fake Wan Lao Bustard thought for a moment and asked Chen Xiaomu, "Sixth Prince, how long does it take for the Zheng army to arrive at the border between Zheng and Qi from Xinjing?"
"If it is a forced march, it will probably take four days." Why do you ask?
The fake Wan Lao Bustard nodded, "That's enough, Sixth Prince, do you think this is okay? Write a letter now and I will send someone to send you back to the new capital and hand it over to the person you designate, and let them lead the troops to the border of Zheng State first. Then you follow me back to the master, and after meeting the master, I will send you directly to the border of Zheng State to meet them."
''No, Miss Wan, the method you mentioned is too risky! "Chen Xiaomu waved his hands hurriedly and said: "First of all, even if you use the best BMW and good horse to travel thousands of miles, you may not be able to make it back in four days. Besides, you don't know whether your master will deliberately make things difficult for me, and even if Now I am writing a letter for you to send back to Xinjing. They may not necessarily believe the person who sent the letter. This will cause a big mess. I think you might as well send me back to Xinjing first, and then find a few horses after I have arranged everything. Good horse, I will go to the border of Zheng to finish this battle, and then I will follow you to see your master. "
The fake Wan Lao Bustard pondered for a moment, then suddenly walked up to Chen Xiaomu, turned his back to him, bent slightly and said, "Sixth Prince, lie on my back and hug me tightly. I will take you back to the new capital right now. Let’s find the money first, take some to the bank and exchange it for banknotes, and then we can make plans after you have arranged things in the city.”
Chen Xiaomu couldn't help but take two steps back and said with embarrassment, "Miss Wan, I'm not injured. I can walk by myself."
The fake Madam Wan turned her head and glanced at him, a little impatient, "Hurry up, you are walking too slowly, I don't care about a woman, but you, a grown man, are so coy!"
When Chen Xiaomu heard this, his heart skipped a beat. He took two steps forward and leaned down on the fake Wanlao Bustard's back. He stretched out his hands and hugged her shoulders tightly. The fake Wanlao Bustard lightly kicked his legs to the ground, and his whole body jumped up. Up in the air, Chen Xiaomu on his back suddenly felt as if his whole body was empty. He was so frightened that he quickly closed his eyes. The wind whistled in his ears, and his body rose and fell. It was similar to the experience of running on a horse, except that he felt the ups and downs. The amplitude suddenly became much larger.
In less than half an hour, Chen Xiaomu opened his eyes as the fake Wan Lao Bustard said, "Here we come." The first thing that caught his eye was the tall, black city wall. "Miss Wan, why don't you go through the city gate?" he asked strangely.
"I guess there has been a turmoil in the city by now. Do you think we can get in through the city gate?" asked the fake Wan Lao Bustard.
Before Chen Xiaomu could say anything, there was a sound of footsteps behind the two of them. Chen Xiaomu turned around and saw that a dozen of his subordinates who were the fake Wan Lao Bustard all rushed over.
The fake Wan Lao Bustard first looked back and forth, then reached out and took off the mask on her face, revealing her alluring appearance again. She turned to Chen Xiaomu and said: "Sixth Prince, I will accompany you to the city to find Zhou Huiniang first. These attributes of mine Let them stay outside the city for the time being and wait until dark before asking them to meet us at Zhang Yong's mansion in the city. And after entering the city, please don't call me Miss Wan again, because even though I was wearing a mask last night , but if you call me Miss Wan again, you are still afraid of arousing suspicion among your subordinates. My real name is Wei Yuxin, can you just call me Miss Yuxin from now on?"
"Okay, okay, from now on I will call you Miss Yuxin in front of others, and I will call you wife when no one else is around!" Chen Xiaomu raised his hand to wipe the saliva from the corner of his mouth and said with a smile.
Wei Yu rolled his eyes at him, "You shouted too early. You are not allowed to shout without my master's consent!"
"Okay, my wife listens to you."
"You" Wei Yu was so angry that he stamped his feet and reached out to hit Chen Xiaomu. Chen Xiaomu was so frightened that he ran along the base of the city wall towards Chengtian Gate.
Seeing the situation, Wei Yuxin hurriedly confessed a few words to his subordinates, and then followed him.
There were soldiers guarding the city standing in front of the inner and outer gates of Chengtianmen. A few officers-looking men held several portraits in their hands, and led dozens of soldiers to confront the people leaving the city one by one and the people on the portraits in their hands. Even the sedans and carriages of some officials and ladies had to get off the sedans and carriages to be inspected. On the contrary, the interrogation of people entering the city was perfunctory. The soldiers could only raise their eyelids and take a look. People entering the city were quickly waved to let them go due to their appearance.
It was Chen Xiaomu and Wei Yuxin's turn. The soldier glanced at Chen Xiaomu, whose face was covered with black ash from the grilled tiger meat skewers, and immediately waved to let him go. Wei Yuxin, who was following behind him, couldn't bear it because of his good looks. I looked at him a few more times, but he didn't deliberately seek trouble and let me go quickly.
After the two entered the city, Chen Xiaomu looked at the weather and saw that it was almost noon, and said to Wei Yuxin who was following him, "Honey, I think you should wear the same clothes as last night. Don't be fooled by He Quan and Li." If those guys from Gui recognize you, why don't I take you to make some clothes first, then change into this one and throw it away.
Wei Yuxin glared at him. Seeing that there were people coming and going on the street and it was difficult to get angry, he could only let this deceiver enjoy his life first and wait until no one was around to settle accounts with him.
Seeing Wei Yuxin lowering his head and saying nothing, Chen Xiaomu reached out to wave to a donkey cart waiting for passengers on the roadside. The driver was a short, dark, and shrewd man in his thirties. He saw Chen Xiaomu waving to him from across the road. , hurriedly jumped out of the donkey cart and trotted all the way with the whip in hand, running over from the opposite side of the road.
He ran up to Chen Xiaomu and Wei Yuxin, bowed and asked, "Sir, do you want to use a small donkey cart?"
Chen Xiaomu nodded, "Send us two to a place where clothes are sold."
The short man was stunned and said, "Sir, I only know that there are places that sell cloth and silk in this city, but I have never heard of any place that sells clothes."
"Yes, yes, it's a place that sells cloth and silk!" After the coachman reminded him, Chen Xiaomu remembered that there were no ready-made clothes for sale in ancient times. They all bought cloth first and then found tailors to tailor them.
"Sir, there are dozens of cloth-selling shops in this city. Which shop are you going to buy cloth from?" the coachman asked again.
This stumped Chen Xiaomu. He had been fighting almost every day since crossing over, and had no chance to deal with these traders and footmen who lived at the bottom of society. The coachman asked him which cloth shop he was going to. He didn't even know the name, but he had an idea and turned to ask Wei Yuxin who was following him, "Madam, do you know which cloth store in Xinjing City sells the best cloth?"
But he didn't expect that Wei Yuxin could barely afford salt, so he still had spare money to buy cloth for clothes from the best cloth shop in the city. Wei Yuxin shook his head immediately.
Seeing this, the coachman said: "Sir, would you like me to take you to Baofuji Cloth Shop? I heard that many high-ranking officials and nobles in Xinjing bought their silks and satins from his house. All the cloth shops in Xinjing City They are all number one!"
"Okay, let's go to his house." Chen Xiaomu nodded in agreement.
The driver took Chen Xiaomu and Wei Yuxin to the donkey cart, opened the linen curtain and let them into the hood. As soon as Chen Xiaomu sat down next to Wei Yuxin, he put his hand on Wei Yuxin's thigh and smiled. Wei Yuxin looked at her with amusement, and his whole body felt as if he was electrocuted and he couldn't help but step back. Chen Xiaomu immediately followed him with his whole body.
Wei Yu had no choice but to retreat, because behind her was the fender board of the car. She blushed angrily and glared at Chen Xiaomu who was next to her. She gritted her teeth and said softly and angrily, "Little thief, stay away from me, or my aunt will kill you." You look good!”
When Chen Xiaomu heard this, he simply raised his arms and hugged Wei Yuxin's entire upper body into his arms. He laughed softly and said, "Wife, what do you want from me? I don't believe you dare to murder your own husband?"
Wei Yuxin sighed, simply closed her eyes and let him touch her body, but occasionally pushed his hands away from sensitive parts of her body.
I don’t know how long the donkey cart has been driving. Chen Xiaomu was acting recklessly in the car. Suddenly, the driver’s voice came from the front, and the donkey cart stopped. Then the driver jumped out of the car, opened the curtain and poked his head in, " Sir, Bao Fuji has arrived at Buzhuang, and the fare is one hundred cash."
Chen Xiaomu pulled Wei Yu out of the donkey cart in a heartbeat, reached out from his arms and took out a twelve-weight silver ingot and handed it to the driver. The driver was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly, "Sir, I really can't find such a big ingot like yours." silver!"
''What should we do? I don't have any change with me. "Chen Xiaomu is confused.
"Sir, please see if your wife has any change with her?" the coachman reminded him.
Without saying a word, Wei Yuxin took off a black cloth bag from his waist, counted out a hundred coins from it and handed it over. The driver took the money and laughed at the two of them, then jumped on the donkey cart and left.
Only then did Chen Xiaomu look up at what the coachman said was the largest cloth shop in New Capital. The front of Bao Fuji Cloth Shop was a two-story building. Downstairs, there were more than a dozen front rooms with wooden counters filled with various kinds of cloth. The one at the front entrance Hanging on the lintel of the door is a large plaque two to three feet long, about as tall as a person, with the inscription "Bao Fu Ji Buzhuang" in five large block letters.
The waiter who was standing at the door to greet guests looked up and saw the dirty Chen Xiaomu strolling towards him. He quickly greeted him with a smile and said from afar: "Sir, please follow me here. Come over here." He said, extending his hand in a gesture of invitation, then turned around and led the way.
Chen Xiaomu was a little strange. He looked at the customers who were picking fabrics in front of the counter in twos and threes, and said to the clerk in front: "Hey, we are here to buy fabrics. Where are you going to take us?"
The guy leading the way replied without looking back: "The fabric here is more suitable for you to wear."
Chen Xiaomu and Wei Yuxin followed the waiter in confusion, and were led by him into two small blue brick houses next to Bao Fuji Cloth Shop. At this time, an old man with a goatee came out of the room and looked at the waiter and said : "Brother Cheng, have customers come to buy our defective fabric again?"
