Chapter 151 Collusion between officials and businessmen
Feng Qingyao pretended not to know, and asked, "Excuse me, little brother, what kind of unsteady method is it?"

The waiter in the shop smiled more and more mysteriously, his eyes flashed with an unfathomable light, "The guest officer just stays here, if you don't come out, the trouble will naturally not find you."

Feng Qingyao wanted to ask something else, when she suddenly heard footsteps approaching from far away.

"Cough—" The innkeeper got up from the corner of the stairs, covered his lips with his hands and coughed loudly on purpose to remind the waiter to be careful when speaking.The waiter also lowered his body tactfully, "Shopkeeper, you are here."

Feng Qingyao raised her eyes to look at the man who walked over.

With a wide forehead, triangular eyes, and a smile on his face, his eyes are cold.

Every move, with the inherent calculation of a businessman.

"En." The shopkeeper responded with a low voice, and when he saw Feng Qingyao standing in front of him, a trace of shock flashed in his dark eyes.

"You are the shopkeeper of the store." Feng Qingyao couldn't help but smile, "I have heard that this is the largest and best inn in Yongzhou City. Not only is it comfortable to live in, but the food is also top-notch. Today, I came here from a long distance. Come, if you want to have a glimpse of the elegant demeanor of the noble house, the shopkeeper, please don't let me down!" That day when she first arrived at the store, it was the shopkeeper with ulterior motives who personally greeted her.

This time, it was him again!

"That's that." The surprise in the shopkeeper's eyes flashed, and it was quickly replaced by the merchant's unique calculations, and he ordered to Xiaoer: "What are you doing in a daze, give the best wine in the store to the guest officer Bring it up!"

"Yes, I'll go now, little one." The waiter went downstairs without stopping.

The shopkeeper did not continue to leave, but bowed respectfully to Feng Qingyao, "I don't know where this young man came from?" Qing Yao's arrival was severe.

"Now that I'm fighting everywhere, I came here to avoid the chaos of war." Feng Qingyao's smile remained the same, and with a word, she lightly threw out the burden.

"In this way, Xiao Ke will be more comfortable entertaining you, and you must let you live here comfortably and eat satisfactorily." As he said, he bowed and saluted again, smiling kindly, "Young master was tired on the way. But don’t bother Young Master’s rest, what Young Master wants to eat and what to use, just tell Xiaoer to prepare it. If you encounter something you are not satisfied with, come to me again.”

"The shopkeeper, go slowly." Feng Qingyao bowed generously in return, and when she looked up, she spotted a piece of auspicious cloud jade pendant hidden in the shopkeeper's collar.

This auspicious cloud jade pendant was brought by her when she was sorting out Feng Lan's belongings!

It really is collusion between government and businessmen!
With a calm smile on her face, after saying goodbye politely, she slowly took two steps back, entered the room and closed the door.

My brother's jade pendant had been kept in his luggage, and now it fell into the hands of the innkeeper, which meant that his luggage was probably in his hands.At that time, she was taken away by officers and soldiers, and the remaining horses and luggage were "picked up" by the innkeeper and became his possessions.

It seems that he and the officers and soldiers have long agreed that as long as anyone who has eaten and left the inn, the property belongs to him, the person belongs to the officers and soldiers.

She put her ear to the door and listened carefully until she heard the innkeeper's footsteps leaving the door and disappearing under the stairs. Then she locked the door and lay down on the bed, creating the illusion that she had already rested.

After a while, the shop waiter came, and he knocked on the door lightly a few times, "Guest officer, the wine ordered by the shopkeeper has been brought to you."

She said nothing.

The waiter knocked on the door again, and even raised his voice a lot, "Master, your wine is here."

Feng Qingyao stopped and still didn't answer. She pinched her fingers and waited for a long time before replying in a lazy voice: "I've fallen asleep, you put the wine at the door first, and open the door to get it when I wake up."

The shop waiter really believed it, left the wine at the door and left.

As soon as he left, Feng Qingyao turned over and got out of bed, and came to another room through the back window——
