Chapter 55: Dragon City Inn

In the early morning of the second day, Chen Zhong took Zhang Yaru and went out early. They went out through the side gate of the royal house.

Chen Zhong was dressed as a physiognomy Taoist, and Zhang Yaru was dressed as a Taoist boy and followed Chen Zhong's left and right.

From a distance, they saw that Yan Xia, dressed as a scholar, was standing at the place they had agreed to last night waiting for them, looking around.

When Chen Zhong and Zhang Yaru came to Yan Xia's side, Yan Xia was still looking left and right, but he didn't recognize them.

"This scholar, the old man wants to ask how to go to Guangxi?" Chen Zhong stroked his gray beard and asked Yanxia.

Yan Xia didn't care, pointed to the front and said, "Follow this direction and keep moving forward." ”

"The old man discussed something with you, do you see that you led two horses by yourself and lent me one?" Chen Zhong deliberately teased Yan Xiadao.

Zhang Yaru, who was standing on the side, almost laughed out loud, because the pair of masters and servants that Zhang Yaru saw were very serious in normal times, but he didn't expect that Chen Zhong began to tease Yan Xia at this time.

Yan Xia glanced at Chen Zhong stupidly, and said embarrassedly: "Old man, I'm sorry!" I can't really lend it to you, this horse is for my master to ride. ”

"You young man, you are really a liar, if you don't have the kind heart to lend your horses to the old decay, just do it, why deceive the old decay? Where is your master? Dishonest. ”

"My lord will arrive at the end of the day. I really didn't lie to you, sir, we have important things to do soon, if there is nothing important, it doesn't matter if I give you a horse. ”

"You young man is really good at lying, and if you don't borrow, you won't borrow, and you can give so many reasons. You said wait for your master, where is your master, where is it?! Even if your master comes, your master will not agree to borrow it, not to mention, you are not waiting for your master at all, hum! Not honest. ”

"Sir, what I said is true, my master is more generous than me, and my master is kind. That said, I'm really waiting for my master, and I'm really in a hurry. Yan Xia's face flushed with urgency.

Zhang Yaru saw that Yan Xia was about to go crazy by Chen Zhong, and she also stepped forward and said: "You are really, if you don't borrow, you won't borrow, what so many excuses, it's just not honest." ”

"Oh, old gentleman, little brother, what I said is true, my master will definitely arrive at the end of the day."

"Okay, let's wait until the hour, and your master doesn't come, can you lend us this horse?" Zhang Yaru continued to force Yan Xia to say.

"Okay! If my master does not come, the horse will be yours. You don't believe it. ”

"Okay, Ru'er, it won't be long anyway, we'll wait here, come, come to grandpa's side." Chen Zhong beckoned Zhang Yaru to sit on the big bluestone on the side of the road.

Zhang Yaru was stunned for a moment, and sat down beside Chen Zhong. I laughed in my heart, you guy took advantage of me, and I really thought I was your grandson.

Yan Xia glanced at the old and young, and thought to himself, I met a more serious one today, what's wrong with this person, tell him the truth, he just doesn't believe it. If you lie to them, they will take it seriously, and they will be grateful in the end.

Hum! How so? As for this person, there is only one word - "cheap", and two words "so cheap"! Young Master Ben doesn't have time to accompany you to idle around, thinking of this, Yan Xia no longer paid attention to Chen Zhong and Zhang Yaru, and looked in the direction of Hainan Palace.

Chen Zhong and Zhang Yaru sat behind Yan Xia, quietly observing the anxious Yan Xia. They were secretly snickering, thinking in their hearts, wait a while, the time has come, they can't wait for us, see how our Yan Daxia in Hainan Mansion ends.

Yan Xia is getting more and more anxious, the prince will not miss the appointment, is there any accident? Yan Xia began to worry.

"The time has come, young man, do you count?" Chen Zhong looked at the anxious Yan Xia and said with a smile.

"I, I, of course I'm talking!" Yan Xia said reluctantly.

"Alright then, we'll take the horse!" Zhang Yaru swaggered to Yan Xia's side and snatched the reins from Yan Xia's hand.

Yan Xia looked at the tall horse in frustration and sighed helplessly.

Chen Zhong turned over and got on the horse, pulled Zhang Yaru and sat on the horse together, took off his beard, and shouted: "Let's go!" Yanxia is leaving! ”

Yan Xia turned his face and saw that the previous fortune teller had become a prince in a blink of an eye, and he was stunned for a moment and said, "Lord and Queen, you are playing tricks on Yan Xia!" ”

"I want to see if I'll be recognizable in this outfit." After Chen Zhong finished speaking, he rode his horse and whipped straight towards Guangxi.

Yan Xia muttered, "You two are so boring! After saying that, he also flew on his horse and chased after him.

Chen Zhong and the others came to Longzhou City, Guangxi all the way non-stop. Longzhou City is the seat of the Guangxi Governor's Mansion.

After the Sino-French War, in order to facilitate military dispatch, Su Yuanchun, the governor of Guangxi, was ordered to move the Guangxi Governor's Office from Liuzhou to Longzhou, the border pass, built Longzhou City, and built two Admiralty Administrations - Xiaolian City (also known as "Xiaolei City") 4,000 meters northwest of Longzhou City and Dalian City in the eastern suburbs of Pingxiang, making it the military command center of Guangxi Province.

Not far from the Admiralty of Xiaoliancheng, there is an inn called "Dragon City Inn". Chen Zhong and his entourage were ready to live in this inn.

After entering this Dragon City Inn, Yan Xia found the store and asked them to arrange two quieter rooms on the second floor.

The windows of these two rooms are next to the street, and not far from the street is the Governor's Office of the Little City.

Chen Zhong got the information that after Su Yuanchun withdrew from Nanning, he had been handling official business in the Xiaoliancheng Administration.

Chen Zhong came to Longzhou for two purposes, one was to meet with Dao Feng and discuss the affairs of Tibet and Sichuan.

The second thing is to persuade Su Yuanchun to cooperate with the Hainan army to fight against the French army, and there is another thing that Chen Zhong especially wants to do, that is, he hopes that Su Yuanchun can join the side of Hainan and jointly raise the banner of anti-Qing Dynasty.

After looking at the room, Chen Zhong and Zhang Yaru were very satisfied, and Yan Xia was about to go downstairs to pay the bill with the shopkeeper. A woman with a handsome face and a graceful figure came to her face.

This woman is slim and elegant, and she is really graceful. A pair of Danfeng eyes reveal brutality and wildness.

Behind this woman, there are two fierce bodyguards, and a pure and beautiful little maid.

Before Yan Xia could walk down the stairs, he was blocked by these people, only to hear the woman say, "Store, I have booked these two guest rooms." ”

Hurriedly followed the shopkeeper who came over and said, "Miss, we have already booked out these two rooms, you can choose two more rooms." ”

"No, I'll want these two rooms, and I'll pay three times the price. You tell them that as long as they move out, I'll pay for them at the inn. ”

When the shopkeeper heard that the woman was asking for three times the price, he suddenly turned to Chen Zhong and Zhang Yaru and said, "These three guest officers, I'm really sorry, I forgot, these two rooms have already been booked out, please take a look at the other rooms." ”

Zhang Yaru was unhappy when she heard this, and said, "Store, what if I don't let these two guest rooms?" ”
