Perhaps it was because of the draft, Emperor Ning felt that he owed Concubine Jin, so he agreed to Concubine Jin's request without hesitation, even though this request was a bit unacceptable.
Emperor Ning was afraid that Yunshang would suffer a loss at the border, so he gave a small group of dark guards to follow Yunshang to obey. He also bestowed the imperial decree, the gold medal, and the holy will sword that cut first and played later. When the imperial decree arrived at Prince Jing's mansion, Yun Chang was also taken aback. Although she knew that Concubine Jin had agreed, there should be no problem, but she never thought that the imperial decree would come so quickly.
Seeing the general manager's stunned expression, Yun Chang thought, if there was a long delay and King Jing knew about it, he was afraid that some accidents would happen again, so he hurriedly asked Qianyin to pack up the things, and the next morning, Take people on the road.
It was inconvenient for a woman to walk outside, so Yun Chang changed into a man's dress again, and the group arrived outside Kangyang City in ten days.
Kangyang City seems to have not been affected by the war at all, the people in the city still look leisurely, the streets are full of people, it seems that the bustling is tight. Yun Chang couldn't help but frowned, feeling a little weird about this situation.
Yun Shang left all the members of the Dark Guard outside the city, and entered Kangyang City by herself, but did not go directly to the Qi Mansion, but just found a restaurant that looked bustling and lively, and walked in.
There was no private room in the restaurant, so Yun Shang sat down in the lobby on the second floor. After ordering some dishes, Yunshang raised her eyes to look at the little girl, and said with a smile, "Little brother, we are from Nanxi City. We heard that Kangyang was at war, so we wanted to come and visit the family. Has the business in Kangyang been affected, but why doesn't it look like a war at all?"
Nanxi city is a relatively prosperous city in Ning country. Yunshang was afraid that if she said she came from the imperial city, it would attract the attention of others, so she made it up at will.
The waiter in the shop laughed and said, "My lord, don't you know? At first, we thought that the war would start, and we might have to close the door, but we didn't expect, hehe, I'm afraid that the people of Xia Kingdom are afraid of the prestige of General Qi." It's been more than a month, and the soldiers of the Xia Kingdom only dared to camp dozens of miles away, and only occasionally sent people to look at them. Ah, I'm afraid we won't be able to fight. General Qi is a veteran of the Ning Kingdom, so we are very powerful when we fight, and I'm afraid it's not much better than Prince Jing."
Yunshang lightly looked at the table with her hand, and greeted the waiter with a smile on her face, "Really? Then I was worried for nothing. It seems that with General Qi in charge, our Kangyang must be safe and sound." of."
He casually took two taels of silver and dismissed the waiter, but Yunshang frowned. The leader of the Xia Kingdom is Prince Xia, and the military adviser is Liu Yinfeng. If you tell her like this, she will believe it. It's just that, after hearing Prince Jing mention it before, she made a special trip to search for some information later, and now hearing what the shop waiter said, the doubts in her heart became more and more intense.
"My lord, is General Qi really that powerful?" Qianyin was also wearing a suit of entourage, staring at Yunshang with bright eyes.
Yunshang smiled coldly, "Yes, he is powerful, he is very arrogant." Even the people in Kangyang worship him very much, almost believing him completely.
While waiting for the food to be served, Yun Chang carefully speculated on Liu Yinfeng's thoughts. Liu Yinfeng's actions may have at least two purposes, one is to put the people in the other two cities on guard, Consuming the stamina of the other two city soldiers; the second made Qi Lang feel that Xia Guo was afraid of him and did not dare to attack, so he became even more arrogant, and waited for Qi Lang to relax his vigilance before attacking unexpectedly. Let Qi Lang be hard to guard against.
Yunshang tapped on the table, and suddenly heard a commotion from downstairs, "What are you talking about? There is no private room? I, Qi Yuzhi, want a private room and need to book in advance? Call your shopkeeper, I'd rather I want to know, when did such a rule exist?"
"Third Master Qi calm down, let me ask you about the younger one, let me make a room, you wait... the younger one will prepare tea for you." followed by the shopkeeper's obsequious voice.
Qi Yuzhi...
Yun Chang raised her eyebrows, turned her eyes to look downstairs, and saw a young man with a weak crown standing downstairs, wearing a purple shirt and holding a folding fan in his hand. There was a hint of disdain in the shopkeeper's eyes.
Qi Yuzhi, Qi Lang's third son, is twenty-one years old and hasn't married yet, but there are more than twenty concubines in his family. With a flamboyant and domineering personality, he can be regarded as a tyrant in Kangyang, causing troubles a lot in the city, but because his father is Qi Lang, few people dare to offend him.
Yun Chang saw the waiter rushing upstairs, knocking on the door of each private room, and went in to inquire. After a while, a person from one of the private rooms came out, but his face was a little unhappy.
Qi Yuzhi was welcomed into the private room by the shopkeeper.
"Tch, isn't it just because I have a general's father? What's the matter, shopkeeper, I asked you if you have a private room, and you said no, why did Qi Yu ask, and you got it?" In the hall downstairs Among them, a voice sounded.
Yun Chang glanced lightly, and saw a man in brocade clothes looking a little unhappy. The shopkeeper hastily walked over and said, "Mr. Li, forgive me, there is really nothing we can do. We can't bear that Mr. Qi gets angry."
Yunshang's food was also served, so Yunshang didn't look at it anymore, and while eating, she observed the faces of the people in the restaurant. But he saw a woman with a veil on her face walking in holding a qin. Although she didn't see her face, her figure was very graceful. Yun Chang saw her raise her eyes to look upstairs, and there was a bit of charm in her eyes.
As soon as the woman entered the restaurant, she attracted many people's attention. Yun Shang heard the playful voice of the man in brocade downstairs, "Hey, this woman is not bad, look at her figure, look at her eyebrows, she must be a stunning beauty , beauty, you are here to play the piano, how about playing "Eighteen Touches" for my brother?"
There was a burst of laughter, but the woman glanced at the man shyly, then carried the piano and walked to the front of the stairs, the man at the same table in brocade clothes booed, "Brother Li, it seems that you are not charming enough, this beauty I don't even care about you."
The brocade-clothed man's expression froze, anger flashed in his eyes, he stood up, grabbed the woman, and said in a cold voice, "Young Master called you, didn't you hear?"
The woman paused, turned around and bowed to the brocade-clothed gentleman, "Young master, someone invited a slave to come and play the piano, so please don't be a slave."
The voice is a bit soft and charming, and it penetrates to the bone.
The young master surnamed Li snorted coldly, "Who invited it? I'll give you double the price. Come and talk to me about a song."
"My lord, this hall is very noisy. Even if the slave plays the piano, I'm afraid I can't hear you clearly. If you like slaves, you can come to the Yue Pavilion to find slaves. You have to go up." The woman said and wanted to go upstairs, but The young master surnamed Li refused to let her go, grabbed the woman's arm and dragged her towards the table where he was sitting, "I want to listen now, sir."
A flash of anger flashed in the woman's eyes, but she was dragged by Mr. Li and staggered over.
Yun Chang's gaze caught a glimpse of a man dressed as a servant coming out of Qi Yuzhi's wing room, went upstairs and took a look, then saw the scene that was going on downstairs, and said quickly, "Yue Niang, the third son is still waiting, you What are you talking about here?"
The young master surnamed Li was stunned, raised his eyes to look at the servant upstairs, frowned, and looked at the woman holding the hand, "The one who asked you to play the piano is Mr. Qi San."
The woman nodded, "Yes."
The young master surnamed Li still refused to let go, raised his head to look at the servant and said, "This young master saw this girl first."
The servant looked at Mr. Li with some disdain, and walked into the private room again. After a while, the door of the private room was thrown open, with a "bang", Qi Yuzhi ran out angrily , followed by a few strong domestic servants, "Which son of a bitch would dare to rob someone from me?"
As soon as he lowered his head and saw the situation in the hall, Qi Yuzhi snorted coldly, "Li Qian, you are impatient, right? Come, call me."
As soon as the words fell, the servant behind Qi Yuzhi jumped down from the second floor, grabbed Mr. Li's hand, and squeezed it violently, and Mr. Li's face was distorted in pain, "Qi Yuzhi, how dare you, My father is also a respectable figure in Kangyang, if you touch me, my father will never let you go lightly."
"Hahahahaha... You told me that you would not spare me lightly. I will beat you up today. What the hell, if you have the guts, let your father deal with me. I am not afraid! Beat me to death Hit!"
There was a sound of screams in the restaurant. After a long while, Mr. Li hugged his body and shrank on the ground, motionless. Only then did Qi Yuzhi yell to stop, and snorted coldly, "I don't know what to do." Then he called to the veiled woman, "Yue Niang, go upstairs."
The woman hurried up the stairs holding the Qin in her arms, followed Qi Yu with her head down, and entered the private room together.
Only then did Qianyin close her mouth that had grown so large that she couldn't help it, "Your...Young Master...why is this man so ruthless..."
Yun Shang smiled coldly, "Wang Fa, I'm afraid that in Kangyang City, Qi Lang will regard himself as Wang Fa."
After eating, Yunshang walked around the city of Kangyang, then went out of the city again, changed back to the palace clothes, asked the dark guard to find a very gorgeous carriage, got on the carriage, and asked the guard to protect her Half of the people sneaked into the city quietly, and half followed the carriage, entered the city in a mighty manner, and went to Qi Mansion.
