Because she was extremely dissatisfied with the allocation this time, Xiao Hanyue did not directly enter the guest room, but stood in the corridor to check back and forth, trying to find out if there were any other suspicious loopholes.

Lotus was also worried, and stood in the corridor hesitating.

Logically, as a maidservant, she should stay in the same room with the master, but the guard said that according to the order of Prince Jin, the five of them were assigned their own rooms, and she was not allowed to serve the young lady personally.

"Please go back to your room and rest quickly, don't delay your journey tomorrow morning!"

Seeing that Xiao Hanyue and the others were unwilling to give up, the guards scolded in a low voice, "No matter who you are, you must follow His Royal Highness's arrangement. If you want to cause trouble, I don't mind locking you up in the firewood room."

These words are naturally frightening, he doesn't dare to lock up this group of people easily, but he is used to being arrogant by relying on Gu Mingxuan's son's name.

Seeing that there was more than one guard holding a weapon, it was estimated that this group of people would be guarding the door on duty tonight, Xiao Hanyue's eyes showed a trace of anger.

Something will happen tonight!
Nie Chen glanced at the urging guard, turned around and kicked the sophistry little gray wolf, then raised his chin at it.

The little gray wolf as big as a puppy whined and bit the man's trousers and tugged angrily a few times before turning around and running to the door of Su Qingtian's room to lie down.

The bright wolf eyes flashed and flashed, staring at the little fat worm wriggling on the ground not far away towards it.

The fat worm is very small, and it hides in the gaps in the dark and moves forward a little bit. It's ridiculous that it's struggling.

The little gray wolf snorted, turned his head and buried his head in his front paws and stopped looking.

Seeing Brother Nie's little wolf going to protect the little master, He Hua felt relieved, and finally entered the room under the urging eyes of the guards.

It wasn't until everyone in the Xiao family obediently returned to the room that the guards glanced at each other, and stood on duty on both sides of the corridor in a very tacit understanding. On the surface, they were protecting their safety, but in reality they were just monitoring.

After another hour or so, a series of creaking footsteps suddenly came from the quiet floors.

The guard walked up to the corridor vigilantly, and looked down at the waiters who were carrying their dinners.

Indeed, it was dinner time, and the store also provided sumptuous meals according to the request of taking care of Mingxuan. The guards used silver needles to test the meals one by one, and they were not allowed to deliver the meals until they found anything wrong.

When Nie Chen heard the sound of someone going upstairs, he walked to the door, opened the gap in the wooden door, and saw the guard's every move, raising his eyebrows slightly in surprise.

The waiters lowered their heads and came to several people's doors and knocked on the door respectively. The guards stared at them for a moment as they entered, and after putting down their meals, they turned and left without daring to delay.

The speed was extremely fast, and Xiao Hanyue and the others didn't even raise their eyes to say hello, as if they were afraid that they would be killed by the guards on the spot if they panted louder.

Su Qingtian was lying by the window watching the pale orange sunset in the distance, and the round table behind her was neatly arranged with delicacies, all kinds of dishes with meat and vegetables, as if Gu Mingxuan took care of them very carefully.

Unfortunately, without turning her head, she could smell the medicinal smell mixed in the charming fragrance.

Although the rest of the Xiao family couldn't smell it, they knew it in their hearts when they saw the unintentional dinner.

Walking around the table, Su Qingtian felt sorry for the delicious food on the table, but at the same time, she was thinking about how not to waste food.

Reaching out to grab a roast chicken, the girl pushed open the pane on the right.

Under the window pane is the back alley of the inn, which is usually used to pile up sundries and dispose of garbage. At this time, a group of beggars leaned against the corner to rest in twos and threes, waiting for the inn to bring out the bucket of slops so that they could have a good meal.

"Hey, do you want to eat?"

A clear and clear female voice sounded above their heads. When the beggars looked up, they saw a girl who looked like a fairy, and she was holding a roasted chicken and looked down with a smile.

Seeing the food, almost all the beggars immediately stood up and looked at Su Qingtian intently, but actually at the fresh, hot food in her hands.

What they eat every day is leftovers from the diners. Some stores throw them out after cleaning them up, and they can still eat hot food. Some stores pile them up all day and night before throwing them away.

Where is the chance to eat such fresh and fragrant roast chicken!
Su Qingtian didn't tease them, she stretched out her hand and threw the roast chicken towards the crowd.

The beggars crowded around like crazy, pushing and pulling back and forth trying to grab a corner of the roast chicken, and some even started to fight each other.

The roast chicken was also torn into countless pieces the moment it fell, and even the bones and scriptures were stuffed into the mouth of the beggar.

Among this group of ragged beggars, there were three or two people who seemed to be fighting for each other but actually did not contribute at all. It was obvious that they were only putting on a show to cover up their true identities.

As for who it is, naturally it cannot escape the girl's eyes.

Glancing at the faces of those people, Su Qingtian leaned on the window pane and said neatly, "I still have a lot of food here, if you want to eat, just come and look for it."

"Miss, can you count on what you say?!"

A burly and well-built beggar stood in the front, with his hair and face covered and his face hard to see. He was holding more than half of a roast chicken tightly in his hand, as if he was a winner.

The beggars behind him were much thinner than him, they were not his opponents at all, so naturally they didn't dare to snatch them.

Hearing Su Qingtian's words, the beggars all looked at this pretty but very strange lady with longing eyes, and there was a glimmer of hope in their bewildered eyes.

"It's up to you."

"Just come to me, I'll have enough dinner tonight."

Saying that, Su Qingtian took out ten taels of silver from her sleeve and threw it directly to the tall beggar, "If you don't want to come, I will give you the ten taels of silver."

Hearing that there is really a good thing waiting for the pie to fall from the sky, the beggars became excited and looked at the tall man in front of him. Obviously he was the one who made up his mind among the group of beggars.

Naturally, it is also because of his strong force value, ordinary beggars can't win and have no food to eat, and occasionally need him to help so as not to starve to death.

Now that they have such a god-given opportunity, they can't wait to rush to the inn to beg for food, but the final decision is still on the man.

The tall man squeezed the genuine silver in his hand, thought for a moment, looked up at the beggars and nodded.

Seeing his promise, the faces of the beggars instantly showed joy and excitement, and they rushed towards the gate of the inn.

And the few people pretending to be beggars immediately stood there in a daze, looking at each other at a loss.

"What should we do? Should we continue to guard here or follow?" One of them was undecided and asked the other two.

"My second child and I are guarding here, third child, follow in and see what's going on."

The leading man directly gave orders.
