Exile opening: I won with the Universal Maker

Chapter 180 Encountering Obscure Town

Wusheng Town is located in the south of the westernmost part of Liangzhou. It takes about a day and a half to go north to Yongwei, and a day and a half to go south to enter Jingzhou.The convoys of Liangzhou and Jingzhou Tongshang often take a break at this place.

Wusheng Town is not big, but because it is located on a major traffic road, there are restaurants, inns, and carriage markets. Merchants from all over the world gather here, and the business of the shops is very prosperous.

Early in the morning, the whole town of Lusheng was awakened, houses were filled with smoke, groups of merchants from Jingzhou came out from the entrance of the only Lusheng inn in the town, harnessing horses and preparing carts.Some whispered about possible gains.

The coachman raised his whip, and the crisp sound of the whip swirled in the cold air.The horses pulling the cart snorted, pulled the loaded carriage, stepped on the frozen ground, and walked northward along the only main street in Wusheng Town.

On both sides of the street, the breakfast stalls were filled with mist, and the smell of pancakes and steamed stuffed buns wafted across their faces. Many people lined up to buy breakfast.The small table in front of the booth was full of people, and the rest of the people lined up to the side of the road, blocking the way of the convoy.

The driver at the front of the convoy jumped out of the car to make way for the people in line: "Zeng Zang, everyone, please Zang Zang..."

After a lot of tossing, the road was cleared, the coachman got into the carriage, and before he could wave his whip, he saw a carriage coming from the opposite side.

This carriage is completely different from ordinary carriages. It is exquisitely crafted, has a large compartment, and is drawn by four horses.There used to be a lot of pedestrians on the street, but now when this carriage comes in, the two ends of it are pushed together, making it impossible to pass.

The driver pulling the cart opposite was a strong man, his face was covered with a cold cotton cloth, and a pair of falcon-like eyes scanned his surroundings.A sword was slung around his waist.

The driver of the caravan was also well-informed. Seeing that the carriage was unusual, and the driver was even more special, he dared not give way to the other side.Quickly ran all the way to find the leader of the caravan.

"In a four-horse cart, the driver is still carrying weapons?" the caravan leader said, "Let me go and see."

The size of four horses is the treatment only for princes, he dare not neglect.

The leader of the caravan followed the driver to the front of the convoy, and several good merchants also came to watch.Seeing the carriage on the opposite side, the caravan leader's expression changed slightly, and he whispered to the driver, "I've seen this carriage before, it's the daughter of the King of Xiliang, Mei Dai."

"Is that the concubine Xian?" A businessman interjected with his hands in his sleeves, "Didn't she go to the capital more than two years ago? Why did her car appear here?"

"Don't think too much about it," the caravan leader waved his hand. "The people in the car must have a lot to do with the Xiliang Palace. Our caravan backed up and let them pass."

The merchant asked: "Since it belongs to the palace, why don't we go say hello and see if they need this batch of goods. If they want it, we don't have to go to Yongwei. It's freezing cold... ..."

The leader of the caravan interrupted him with a chuckle, and said: "Don't think about it, we ordinary people have nothing to do with the palace."

The coachman agreed and went ahead to turn around.

The coachman on the carriage opposite was turning his head as if talking to the people in the carriage.Then a woman's voice came from the carriage, the voice was so low that I couldn't make out what she was saying.

The coachman turned around and said to the leader of the caravan, "Master said, let you pass first."

After finishing speaking, the coachman waved his whip, turned the carriage around, and left the town northward.

"Who is in the car?" The caravan leader looked at the opposite carriage suspiciously, "Will the Xiliang Palace make way for us?"

Everyone in the caravan felt incredible.

Not only them, but even Li Wan who was sitting in the carriage felt incredible.

She looked at Shen Yuexi who was sitting opposite, hugging the heater and pasting it on her lower abdomen to warm her stomach:

"Really, why do we give way to those civilians?"

Shen Yuexi yawned and said, "There are so many cars, it would be troublesome to turn around. We only have one car, so why don't they let us in if we don't?"

"It's unreasonable." Li Wan got angry and stopped talking.

Originally, she wanted to say that she was the daughter of Marquis Pingyang, but then she realized that she was no longer.Like Shen Yuexi and Xiao Zhuo, everyone is a commoner who has lost his identity.

Although a down-and-out phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken, why can Shen Yuexi face these things calmly.She has lived in Xiaogang Village for so long and still hasn't adapted.

After waiting for a while, after the convoy of merchants from Jingzhou passed by, Qiang Lin drove the carriage into Yusheng Town.

Shen Yuexi sniffed, her eyes lit up, and she opened the car window a small slit to look out. While watching, she waved to Li Wan, and whispered: "Come, come."

Seeing her mysteriously, Li Wan didn't know what she saw, so she stood up and leaned over to have a look.

"Look at that bun, it's white, big, and warm," Shen Yuexi licked her lips, "I don't know what the stuffing is, let's go buy some and eat."

"No," Li Wan curled her lips and said, "It's only something grass people eat, so I won't eat it."

Seeing that she was still putting on airs, Shen Yuexi didn't care, and said with a smile: "Then I'll go down and buy it, and you should be safe in the car, so don't wake up the two old people."

None of us are familiar with the geography here, so we missed Sutou and were forced to travel all night.

Both Shen Yuexi and Li Wan are young and can withstand it.Dr. Hua and Mrs. Li were getting old, and at night they were shaking with sleepiness, and they fell asleep early in their seats with their clothes on.

"What kind of buns are you buying?" Li Wan rubbed her eyes and said in a low voice, "With so much money, why don't you find a restaurant and order a table to eat. I haven't eaten for a long time."

"Who eats a banquet early in the morning..." Shen Yuexi has no temper with this confused young lady, "I should have some steamed stuffed buns and porridge in the morning. Besides, the restaurant is not open at this time, we will eat it when it opens. Let’s not talk about it, I’ll get out of the car and go buy it.”

After speaking, Shen Yuexi knocked on the carriage, told Qiang Lin to stop the car, opened the door and jumped down.

Now it is almost December, and the weather is extremely cold.She walked two steps, Qiang Lin got out of the car and came over, and said to her: "Master, if there is anything I need, I will do it for you."

"No, I'll move around a bit," Shen Yuexi smiled, and handed the heater to Qiang Lin, "You've been driving for so long, warm your hands first."

Qiang Lin froze for a moment, reached out to take the stove, and followed behind her.

Shen Yuexi came to the breakfast booth and said to the owner: "What's the stuffing of the buns?"

The owner of the shop was so busy that he didn't raise his head and said: "Pork and green onion stuffing, two coins for each, ten coins for a box, how much?"

Shen Yuexi looked at the drawer on the stove, and if there were ten pens in a drawer, that would be five.The four people in the car must eat ten at least.And the guards, if the men eat more, it counts as five for one person. How can 20 people get a hundred.

"I want 120." She calculated for a long time and reported the number.

The shopkeeper was startled, thinking he was deaf and couldn't hear clearly, he asked, "How much do you eat?"

"120." Shen Yuexi repeated.

The shopkeeper looked up.

The young girl's face was as tender as a shelled egg, her eyebrows were as bright as a trace, her eyes were bright and her teeth were bright, and she had a sweet smile.She was wearing a thick fur coat and a cloak, and a strand of long black hair poked playfully out of the cotton cap she was wearing.She is even more bright and moving, cute and lively.

The shopkeeper was stunned, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. He blushed and said, "There are only [-] stoves on the stove, and the rest must be paid for."

He guessed that Shen Yuexi was the maid of a young lady, and she came out to buy food.

Shen Yuexi said: "Then give me twenty first."

Qiang Lin said in a low voice: "Master, you don't have to worry about us, we will take care of it ourselves."

The shopkeeper opened the drawer and was holding the buns. Hearing this, he almost dropped the buns.It turned out that the woman who bought the buns was actually the master.Shouldn't they all be bought by the servants? Why is it the other way around?

After buying the steamed buns, the carriage came to the only inn in the town——Yosheng Inn.

Shen Yuexi booked the four best south-facing rooms on the second floor of the inn.She brought a full 1000 taels of silver with her on this trip, and she had a big pocket, not short of money.

Both Mrs. Li and Dr. Hua hadn't woken up yet. After eating a few buns, they went back to their room to sleep.After eating, Shen Yuexi and Li Wan went back to their rooms to sleep.

After sleeping for more than an hour, there was noise from downstairs, and Shen Yuexi got up to check when she heard it.

The innkeeper ran upstairs in a panic, and said with a bitter face: "Mrs. Shen, I'm really sorry, maybe...you have to move out."

Shen Yuexi asked dissatisfiedly: "We just paid the money, why should we move out?"

"Prince Jing's concubine is here, and she wants to book this inn." The shopkeeper said with a sad face, "You also know that we can't afford to offend, and the shop is willing to refund the money and pay you again..."

Crown Princess Jing?
Without waiting for the shopkeeper to finish speaking, Shen Yuexi leaned on the railing on the second floor and looked down.

The woman downstairs who was surrounded by a group of maids and guards also just raised her head.
