Chapter 68

The headed man dressed as a servant saw Gao Jun and Long'er rushing up, and immediately shouted, asking the guards behind him to stop them.

After the guards heard this, they rushed towards Gao Jun and Long'er, and the man dressed as a servant turned around and jumped into the carriage behind, and started to flee in the carriage.

The two sides had just started to engage in hand-to-hand combat, and the Jinwu Guards in the distance rushed over quickly when they saw the situation here, and surrounded the group of people.

Gao Jun, Long'er and the guards quickly stopped.

"Who made a mistake!" The leader of the Jinwu Guard shouted at the people in the encirclement.

"This general." Xuan Shijing jumped out of the carriage and came to the leader of the Jinwu Guard: "I am Xuanweihou. I just met this group of people on the road. They pretended to be His Royal Highness and wanted to take them away. I, the leading one, dressed as a chamberlain, fled in a yellow carriage."

The Jin Wuwei carefully examined Xuan Shijing a lot, and after seeing the jade plaque hanging around his waist, he confirmed that it was the Marquis of Xuanwei himself, and then he said, "The general has seen the Marquis." Looking at it The group of people dressed in guard armor ordered: "Take this group of people back and lock them up, and send someone to summon them. If someone pretends to be the prince and wants to harm Xuanwei Hou, immediately seal the city and search."

The fraudulent use of the crown prince's name has something to do with the royal family, so the captain of the Jinwu Guard had to take it seriously and ordered a city-wide search.

"Since the general has taken over this matter, I won't participate any more. I have to rush to the palace, so I won't talk to the general anymore." Xuan Shijing cupped his hands and said.

The general also cupped his hands in return: "Master Hou, go slowly."

Xuan Shijing nodded, then looked at Gao Jun and Long'er: "Gao Jun, Long'er, let's go."

Gao Jun angrily put away the knife in his hand, walked to the side of the carriage, and Long'er also returned to Xuan Shijing's side, and when Xuan Shijing got on the carriage, Long'er handed over the knife in his hand to Gao Jun, and Gao Jun handed over the two knives Together, they inserted back under the frame of the carriage, jumped onto the frame, and continued to drive towards the palace.

"Young Lord, did you just let them bring everyone back like that?" Gao Jun said again while driving the carriage.

Xuan Shijing in the carriage heard Gao Jun's voice and said with a smile: "Otherwise, the city of Chang'an will be closed and searched, and those people will use the name of the prince. This matter will definitely alarm His Majesty, and you still want to bring them back. The government cannot interrogate, let alone the other party, the two of you can't take care of them, can't you?"

When Gao Jun heard the words, he was silent and concentrated on driving Xuan Shijing into the palace in the carriage.

Walking in the palace, Long'er, who hadn't spoken all the way, finally spoke up: "Young Lord, those people were taken away by the Jinwu Guards, can they find anything?"

"That's enough, whether the leader can be caught or not is another matter. Those people taken away by the Jinwu Guard are just like the assassins captured by the mansion, they are just small characters." Xuan Shijing said while walking: "But I am surprised It's strange, I'm fine and I haven't offended anyone, so why do you want to kidnap me?"

"In the past, our house wasn't doing well. Ever since Master Biao and his family came, Lord Hou has encountered such things. If you ask me, their family is against our family." Long'er held the food box in both hands, Talking with Xuan Shijing.

Xuan Shijing smiled, let Long'er complain, and didn't say anything, Xuan Shiqing was still included in the Xuan family's genealogy, and the resentment in Long'er's heart could not be dissipated in a short while.

At noon, after Xuan Shijing greeted Li Chongyi and the others, he left them the food box that Long'er had brought, and took Long'er back to the Hou Mansion, ready to pack up and go to Yanlai Building to wait for Li Chengqian and the others.

He took Long'er to Yanlai Tower, and as soon as he entered the door, Baoniang greeted him waving a handkerchief. If Baoniang was really good at doing business, she only met Xuan Shijing once, so she remembered it.

"Isn't this the young master of Xuanwei? What kind of wind brought you here?"

"Bao Niang, your brain is really good. I only came here once, and you still remember me." Xuan Shijing smiled, and turned around to signal Long'er to pay.

Bao Niang lightly shook the round fan in her hand, then covered her mouth with a smile and said, "The most important thing in our line of work is that you have a good brain, otherwise you will offend the guests more. Chang'an City is full of dignitaries, if I remember I can’t stop, I have to pack up and go home.”

Long'er took out a slip of paper from her sleeve pocket, handed it to Bao Niang, and said, "Take this slip of paper and go to Xuanwei Hou Mansion to get money."

Baoniang was taken aback, and looked at Long'er. Today, Long'er accompanied Xuan Shijing to Yanlai Tower and was dressed in men's clothes. This Baoniang has been in a brothel for so many years, and she can tell at a glance that Long'er is a girl. Why did Marquis Xuanwei take his maid with him when he visited the brothel?

Puzzled, but still smiling, he took the paper in Long'er's hand and thanked Xuan Shijing.

The currency in circulation in the Tang Dynasty was only copper coins, and thousands of coins were consistent, but it also caused large-scale transaction inconvenience, but the court has not improved until now, and Xuan Shijing only knew that Longer followed Xuan Shijing to Yanlai The buildings on the body are all written receipts from the Hou's Mansion. Afterwards, others can go to the Hou's Mansion with the written receipts to withdraw money. Otherwise, when Xuan Shijing spends money in a place like Yanlailou, Long'er may have to drive a carriage to pull a bunch of money. To put it nicely, he is a local tyrant, but to put it bluntly, he is a local turtle.

"Bao Niang, I want the best private room on the second floor, and I want to entertain some guests here." Xuan Shijing ordered.

"Young Master, this." Bao Niang looked troubled.

"What's wrong?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"Young Lord, the private room on the second floor is already full. Look." Bao Niang said with some embarrassment, "How about I find you a secluded place in the hall?"

Let Li Chengqian and the others be the lobby?How could this work, the hall was chaotic and noisy, originally Li Chengqian had to hide from the group of censors when he came out of the palace to visit Yanlai Tower, if this leaked out, Li Chengqian would be busy returning to the palace.

"Isn't there still a third floor? Just find me a room on the third floor." Xuan Shijing said.

"Young Master, the third floor is where the girls live, this"

"Don't talk nonsense, where are there so many things, it's just a lot of work." Xuan Shijing became a little impatient, it seems that in this kind of place in Chang'an City, you can only get along by playing the habit of being a dude.

"Don't you have a top card named Qin Yuxin, her room is fine." Long'er standing behind Xuan Shijing said.

"Miss Long'er's proposal is very good." Li Tai's voice came from behind.

Xuan Shijing turned around and saw Li Chengqian and Li Tai. Beside them was a handsome young man in a moon-white robe, with his black hair tied up by a white headband. Upon closer inspection, although this young man was He has beautiful features, but he is imposing, and he is probably the king of Shu, Li Ke.

Just as Xuan Shijing was about to bow and salute, he suddenly remembered that this was in Yanlai Tower, so he could only cup his hands and said, "Shijing has seen the three elder brothers."

"Shijing, please don't be polite to us brothers and sisters, bustard, quickly arrange a room for us." Li Chengqian, the leader, said.

Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Li Ke lived in the palace all year round, Baoniang naturally didn't recognize them, but seeing the three people's clothes and demeanor, she guessed that these three people had extraordinary backgrounds, and with Xuan Shijing's actions, Although it seemed to be an ordinary greeting, the tone was still respectful, and it was much higher than his status to be treated like this by a Marquis.

Bao Niang quickly ordered the servant to take Xuan Shijing and others up to the third floor.
