Fortunately, the largest tribe in Nanzhao reunited the entire Nanzhao last year, and the tribal chieftain declared himself the Lord of Anping, and the entire Nanzhao became stable again.

The Daye Dynasty had no second King Pingxi and knew that it would not be able to take back the territory of Nanzhao, so it hurriedly sent various congratulatory gifts and named the leader of Anping Kingdom as King Anping.

The kings of various vassal states have always been happy to accept such rewards.

Anyway, Daye Dynasty has no actual jurisdiction ability. If he keeps his mouth soft, he can fight many fewer battles and gain many benefits.

So what Xiao Luoyi saw at this time was a prosperous city where singing and dancing were flourishing.

However, while chatting at a nearby table, Xiao Luoyi heard something strange: the leader of the Anping Kingdom wore a silver mask, covering most of his face, making it impossible to see what he looked like.

Xiao Luoyi couldn't help but gossip with the senior high school students: "They are saying that no one knows what the leader of Anping Kingdom looks like?"

The senior year nodded: "That seems to be the case."

"Then what if someone has evil intentions and makes a mask and pretends to be the Lord of Anping?"

The senior high school student looked at Xiao Luoyi as if he was mentally retarded: "Who dares to be so ignorant of life and death?"

Xiao Luoyi: "..." I was so chatty.

Chen Huaijin spoke up to ease the embarrassment: "That's true. No one knows the appearance of the leader of Anping, only that he is a man. But the people of Nanzhao admire the strong, and no one will pretend to be one."

"Does his queen also know?" Xiao Luoyi didn't believe it.

Wouldn't it be weird if a man wore a mask between the sheets?

The senior year looked at Xiao Luoyi again: "He doesn't have a queen."

Xiao Luoyi: "..."

"Where's the concubine? Where's the concubine?"

"nothing."

Xiao Luoyi looked around and suddenly lowered his voice: "He is so masculine?!"

"Pfft!" The senior high school student was choked and coughed violently. He coughed and wiped his tears while looking around in panic.

God, Madam Xiao, what kind of strange idea is this?

If the people next to him heard it, God knows if my group would be imprisoned in a cage? !

Xiao Luoyi looked at Chen Huaijin innocently: "What? Did I say something wrong?" Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong!

Chen Huaijin reached out helplessly and patted the lady on the head: "Eat."

The next few people ate seriously, but the fox next to Xiao Luoyi aroused the curiosity of many people.

There are many rare birds and animals in Nanzhao, including foxes, but this is the first time they have seen a fox sitting there and eating quietly like a human being.

Two children came over curiously and watched the little fox eating up close.

While watching, the two started discussing.

"Look, it's holding the meat with its paws and eating it well!"

"Really! Take another piece after it's finished!"

"It also spits out bones!"

"Yes, yes! It loves to be clean. After eating, it even reaches out to ask the owner to wipe its hands with a handkerchief..."

Then the two children gave up and ran into the private room upstairs, crying and asking for the fox.

After all, it was a wooden building with poor sound insulation. The cries of the children upstairs could be heard even downstairs. Not long after, a housekeeper came down with the two children and asked how to sell the fox.

Xiao Luoyi helplessly patted the little fox on the head: "Ali, look, you are causing trouble again!"

The little fox spread its paws: "Zhizhizhi..."

Blame me? !

The housekeeper was also secretly puzzled: Foxes are very spiritual, and such spiritual beings are indeed rare.

"Madam, my young master has taken a liking to you, a fox. I wonder if you can sell it to us?"

Xiao Luoyi pointed at the little fox: "You have to ask it about this. As long as it is willing, I have no objection." How could the little fox be willing?

Who is qualified to be my master? !

What good things are you thinking about?

The little fox shook his head and waved his hands without saying anything: "Zhizhi..." No, no, no!

The housekeeper was even more surprised: he could still understand human speech!

"I wonder if one thousand taels of silver would be okay?"

"Hiss..." Someone began to take a breath of cold air.

Xiao Luoyi spread his hands helplessly: "I said, I can't be the master of this fox."

"Our lady is the legitimate daughter of the governor of Xiushan County. If you are willing to part with me, you can just tell me how much money you want."

Xiao Luoyi understood: this housekeeper was willing to use money to solve the problem, but he was also implicitly showing the family's strength. The implication was that Xiao Luoyi was told to "take it as soon as he gets it".

Xiao Luoyi pointed at the little fox and lowered his voice to explain to the housekeeper: "It still has the souls of three people living in its ears. Ordinary people cannot raise such things, as it will bring down the fortune of the family."

The housekeeper couldn't believe his ears: "What did you say?!"

Xiao Luoyi spread his hands: "Otherwise, why do you think its spirituality is so different from the other foxes next to it?"

"..."

Butler: I grabbed the two ladies and left.

The two ladies were not happy, and the housekeeper coaxed and pulled: "Miss, I have to go back and report to the madam and the master first, and then let the master and the madam make a decision. You two should go back with me and explain!"

When they heard that they were looking for their parents, the two children were frightened and immediately followed them obediently.

I thought that the matter would come to an end, but when the meal was almost finished, the housekeeper from before came again: "This good man, this lady, my county governor's wife has invited me."

Chen Huaijin and Xiao Luoyi looked at each other: "What's the matter?"

The housekeeper lowered his voice: "My wife heard that she knows Taoist magic, and she wants to ask her for help... find someone."

oh! This is within the scope of business.

Xiao Luoyi stood up: "Let's go."

The housekeeper led Xiao Luoyi upstairs. There was only a woman in fine clothes and a mother-in-law in the private room, and there were no dishes or chopsticks on the table.

Apparently, the county guard's wife temporarily found an empty private room to meet Xiao Luoyi.

Xiao Luoyi smiled and saluted in a Taoist manner, and the county guard's wife also saluted Xiao Luoyi.

The two parties sat down and after explaining their respective identities, the woman took a step forward and spoke on behalf of the county governor's wife.

"My wife's young master has been missing for half a year. I heard that Madam Xiao is a member of the Xuanmen. I want Madam Xiao to help search for him. Where is he?" Alive or dead?

Xiao Luoyi glanced at the county governor's wife with a complicated expression: "The person is dead. The body is on the roadside in Shun'an Prefecture."

The soul is in the little fox's ears.

The county guard's wife stood up in shock and said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? You don't even know my son's name, and you just said that my son is dead when you meet him!? You liar!"

The mother-in-law was also angry: "This lady must be careful what she says! If my wife is deceived by such nonsense, my wife, the county governor, is not a vegetarian!"

Xiao Luoyi sighed: "Madam, please be patient and let me explain in detail."

I can’t hide it anymore, so tell me.

Xiao Luoyi explained the half-truth and half-false story about his encounter with corpses and a ray of soul on the roadside, and then explained the story he heard from the wronged soul.

The county governor's wife still didn't believe it: "What you said can be known by asking around in Xiushan County! How do I know if you asked about it intentionally!?"

Xiao Luoyi was helpless: "Does anyone else know that Madam once had a quarrel with Young Master Ye Zhaochun and her arm was burned by Young Master Ye Zhaochun's hand?"

The expression on the face of the county governor's wife changed drastically, and she staggered back: "This matter...how do you know about this?!"
