Not far behind the two of them, under the eaves outside the hall.
Ren Ruyi and Ning Yuanzhou hugged each other.
Ning Yuanzhou said warmly: "Li Tongguang, Xiao Yu Xi, even their names match well."
Ren Ruyi: "Tong, You, Tong Guang, and Xi... Well, they are really a match made in heaven."
Ning Yuanzhou: "So are we."
Ren Ruyi smiled and said: "Well, you are right."
…
At Shen Shi, the sun sets in the west.
Ren Ruyi and Xiao Yuxi each disguised themselves and left the Siyi Pavilion one after another.
Above Andu Market.
Xiao Yuxi transformed into the appearance of Mr. Yu, holding a long piano in his arms.
Li Tongguang was by her side.
The two of them wandered around the vendors' stalls on both sides of the street.
Xiao Yuxi touched a jade ornament.
Seeing this, Li Tongguang took a step forward.
Without saying anything, he dropped a silver ingot and picked up the jade ornaments for Xiao Yuxi.
Xiao and Xi stood in front of the lantern.
Li Tongguang expresses money: "Buy."
Xiao and Xi looked at the candy man a few more times.
Li Tongguang followed her, holding a jade ornament in his left hand and a lantern in his right hand.
He really couldn't spare his hands to take anything, so with a wave of his hand, he bought the candy seller's stall directly.
Xiao Yuxi turned to look at him, his eyes full of amusement.
Li Tongguang placed the lanterns and jade ornaments on the candy seller's stall, and then pulled out a phoenix-shaped candy man.
He slowly approached Xiao Yuxi, grinned, and handed the candy man in his hand to her: "Here."
The young man's eyebrows are picturesque, and his smile spreads like a magnolia in an instant.
At this moment, the four eyes are facing each other.
Li Tongguang's eyes were sparkling, as if they were filled with stars, and they seemed to have her reflection in them.
Xiao Yuxi couldn't say no words for a moment.
She hugged Changqin with one hand and took the phoenix-shaped candy man.
At this moment, arguments came from the shops on the right side of the street: "I told you it's mine, give it back to me!"
Xiao Yuxi and Li Tongguang heard the news and went away.
Among the shops.
A heroic woman, dressed in a cinnamon-pink robe, with simple pearls and braids on her head complementing each other.
She held a hairpin in her hand and was looking at it carefully.
There was a man next to him, covering his face, wailing and falling to the ground.
Another noble lady quickly helped the man up and said nervously: "Husband, husband, are you okay?"
The noble woman helped the man up and yelled at the woman in cinnamon-pink robe with an angry look on her face: "Is the Duke's Palace of the First Kingdom so great? Can the county owner just beat people at will?"
"I tell you! My father is still the censor!"
County Lord Jinming retorted: "When did I take action?"
County Lord Jinming’s maid explained: “This young master obviously wanted to snatch the hairpin, but our County Lord avoided it and he fell down!”
The people watching the excitement all around agreed: "Yes, we all saw it."
Seeing this, the noble lady refused and said, "Even so, the rules of the jewelry store are first come, first served!"
"My husband already has it in his hand, so why do you have to snatch it away?"
"Alas." County Lord Jin Ming sighed and called impatiently: "The shopkeeper."
The shopkeeper quickly explained: "Oh, yes! This purple jade hairpin was sent by the county boss ten days ago and was polished by the shop."
"Now that the county master is here to pick up the finished product, he doesn't want the servant to bring the hairpin and win the favor of this gentleman."
County Lord Jinming glanced at the noble girl, tilted his head, and asked aloud: "Do you understand now?"
The noble girl knew that she was being unreasonable, so she sneered and attacked personally: "This hairpin is always given by the husband to the young lady."
"Some people don't distinguish between yin and yang. No wonder they even have to buy hairpins themselves!"
County Lord Jinming's face darkened: "Please clean your mouth!"
The noble lady smiled and said, "Did I tell you? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"..."
A fight was about to break out inside the store.
Xiao Yuxi raised her eyes and looked at Li Tongguang: "Is that the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Chu, Chu Yue, the head of Jinming County?"
Li Tongguang nodded obediently: "Yes."
Xiao and Ximeifeng raised their eyebrows and asked, "Aren't you going to take care of your fiancée?"
Li Tongguang carefully looked at Xiao Yuxi's expressions and hesitated to speak.
Xiao Yuxi smiled, stuffed the Changqin into Li Tongguang's arms, and walked towards the store.
"Hey -" Li Tongguang called from behind her.
Within the store.
Chu Yue has already raised the long whip in her hand.
Xiao Yuxi stepped forward quickly, grabbed Chu Yue's wrist, and stopped her movements.
Chuyue was wondering who was meddling in other people's business, and turned around with an annoyed look on her face. However, when she saw Xiao Yuxi's face, her anger instantly disappeared.
Xiao Yuxi handed the phoenix-shaped candy man in her hand to Chuyue, and turned to look at the noble girl: "I have only seen someone who is unreasonable but not forgiving. This is the first time that someone who is unreasonable has to take three points."
"The censor is an official of the fourth rank. Not to mention the Duke of Chu, just talking about the county master himself, he is the second rank."
"I really don't understand. Where does this young lady get the confidence to be so arrogant?"
Chuyue stood there blankly. She looked at Xiao Yuxi's profile and subconsciously took the candy man.
The noble woman yelled angrily: "Who are you?"
Xiao Yuxi replied: "The envoy from Xisai is here. In a few days, he will go to the palace to meet the Holy Emperor."
"When I first arrived in the noble land of Anguo, I encountered such a sin. I will have to mention it in front of the nobles in the palace in the future."
Chuyue's aunt is Chuguo's concubine and the daughter of Chuguo's Duke.
As for who this noble man in the palace refers to, everyone naturally knows it well.
The noble girl was timid, but her tone was still very disdainful: "You are just a lowly dancing demon boy. It is not your turn to talk in Da'an!"
Xiao Yuxi chuckled and said, "That's right! I am as humble as I am, but I have already heard of the good name of Lord Jinming, and I admire him in my heart."
"As for you, tsk tsk tsk, you are old and wan, have no talent and no virtue, I would not even dare to touch you!"
"I'm afraid only the young man behind you, who only dares to hide behind women and keep silent, can be worthy of you."
People around were talking a lot, and the laughter could not be suppressed at all.
The noble girl was so humiliated that she couldn't even care about her husband. She stamped her feet and ran out of the shop without looking back.
Her husband followed dejectedly.
The show ended and the spectators dispersed.
Xiao Yuxi nodded slightly towards Chu Yue, then turned and left.
As soon as she stepped out of the store, Chuyue pulled her cyan sleeve into her hand.
Xiao Yuxi looked back at Chuyue, raised an eyebrow and smiled: "Is there anything else, Lord Jinming?"
Chuyue shook her head: "You..."
Xiao Yuxi took out his sleeves, and the smile on his face seemed gentle, but in fact it implied alienation: "If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
After she said that, she walked towards Li Tongguang who was not far away.
Xiao Yuxi took the Changqin from Li Tongguang's arms: "It's getting late, I have to go there."
Li Tongguang nodded.
Chuyue was slightly surprised when she saw this scene.
She trotted up to Li Tongguang, raised her hand and pointed in the direction Xiao Yuxi left: "Is that your friend?"
Li Tongguang nodded and responded: "Yes."
Chuyue murmured: "You are not a very good person. I didn't expect that the friends you made were pretty good."
She thought for a moment, then looked up at Li Tongguang and asked softly: "You said before that if we cooperate on the surface, you can find ten or eight young men for me behind the scenes."
"Does this still count?"
Li Tongguang froze and slowly turned his head to look at Chu Yue.
He glanced at the candy man in Chuyue's hand, vaguely guessing something, and the look in his eyes was extremely complicated.
Li Tongguang's voice was deep: "Count."
Chu Yue's face was filled with joy: "Then I want to..."
Li Tongguang quickly interrupted, and his words sounded like he was gritting his teeth: "He can't do it."
Chuyue's smile suddenly faded, and her eyebrows furrowed slightly: "Why?"
Li Tongguang stepped forward: "He already has a family."
Chuyue followed Li Tongguang: "Ah? What's his name?"
Li Tongguang: "I don't know."
Chuyue: "Isn't he your friend? Why don't you even know his name!"
Li Tongguang: "Yeah."
Chuyue: "Don't deal with me! I can just be friends with him!"
Li Tongguang: "He has no shortage of friends."
"..."
