Chapter 385: Arriving in Jiangnan
"Master, let's have a cup of hot tea, we are almost at the border of Yangzhou, although this Yangzhou is the south, why is it so cold?" After saying that, the wind shadow also shivered, as a person who has been practicing martial arts all year round, this is not something that should be.
Xie Chengli was also wrapped in a thick coat, but the biting cold wind still didn't know where to get in, and the legs and feet of the people who were blowing hurt from it.
"This winter in the south of the Yangtze River is different from the winter in Kyoto, although there is no goose feather snow, but this wet and cold weather is unbearable, you don't wear your wet shoes, wait for us to enter Yangzhou City, find an inn to settle down, and quickly change."
When they entered the city, they were not hindered in any way.
Entering this Yangzhou City, Fengying also found that the customs and habits here are indeed different from Kyoto, although he had been here with Xie Chengli before, but he left in a hurry at that time, and did not observe carefully, now it seems that this Yangzhou is worthy of being a good place for the spirit of the earth, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and even the girls look better than a water spirit.
As soon as he finished thinking about it, a girl walking by him glanced at him with a shy smile, and her gentle eyes really made his legs weak.
"Ahem, Kazekage, if you haven't seen enough, do you want to go down and keep watching?" Xie Chengli on the side said in a deep voice.
"Master, that me, I don't watch it, I don't watch it anymore, hehe, but master, you are because you already have someone in your heart, you may not be interested in these girls at all, but you look at me, I have been alone for so long, then I must want to be accompanied by soft fragrance and warm jade."
Xie Chengli glanced at him speechlessly, closed his eyes and went to rest, Fengying was bored with himself, touched his nose and didn't speak again.
In fact, Kazekage doesn't want to marry a wife at all now, marrying a wife means settling down, with Xie Chengli's temperament, it is impossible for him to let him continue to follow him on the premise that he has a family, but now Kazekage, he just wants to follow his master.
The two found a popular inn in Yangzhou, Tongfu Inn, the proprietress is a beautiful woman, but the guests never dare to gag with her, just because she has a husband with a full face.
"Boss, do you still have a room here?"
Hongmei raised his eyes and saw Xie Chengli, who was not far away, and the smile on his face became more obvious, and he nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, how many rooms do the two guest officers want?" ”
"Come to two upper rooms, the location is more remote, my son-in-law doesn't like to be noisy."
"The slave family understands, Xiao Liuzi, take the two guest officers to the Tianzi room."
The room is on the corner of the third floor, the entire third floor according to the observation of the wind shadow, there are not many people who live, it is indeed quieter, the room is very clean, the decoration is also elegant and quiet, it is worthy of being the best inn in Yangzhou business.
"Master, since the place to settle down has been arranged, when are we going to go to King Rong?"
"There's no hurry."
This time when they entered Yangzhou, Xie Chengli and Fengying did not deliberately hide their traces, but swaggered in, with the means of that Rong Wangye, the moment the two of them entered Yangzhou, all their actions were already under his control. As for why they came, presumably he knew very well in his heart that Prince Rong's attitude towards the royal family should not be so easy to agree to borrow food, even if Xie Chengli went, it would be in vain, it would be better to rest in this inn for a few days now, and by the way, touch the details of this Lord Rong, as for how much they can touch, it depends on their ability.
When night falls, Yangzhou City is still as lively as the day, the streets are full of lanterns, even if it is not a festival recently, everyone is like a festival, the traffic is busy.
Fengying looked at the lively street market through the window and couldn't help but sigh: "Master, the life in Yangzhou City is really lively, I didn't expect there to be so many activities at night, look over there, the love poem that the little brother wrote to the girl was torn, this is too miserable." ”
Xie Chengli is a two-eared person who does not listen to things outside the window, and only reads the books of sages.
On the way from Kyoto, Xie Chengli read books in addition to resting, and Feng Ying didn't know what to see about that book, although he was forced to read some books when he was young, at least he could read all the words, but after becoming Xie Chengli's hidden guard, Feng Ying didn't even touch those books again, and it was too much of a headache to watch.
The sound insulation of the inn was not very good, and at this time, they heard the sound of the guest coming back next door.
In the afternoon, Kazekage had already investigated, and there were three people on this floor in addition to their master and servant.
The next room is occupied by a merchant from the Western Regions, who has lived here for a long time, doing some spice sales business, I heard that he thinks the service of this inn is too thoughtful, so he has been living here.
There is also a woman who lives in the west, who goes out early and returns late every day, and no one knows what she does.
The last one is the big man who lives next to the woman, judging from his skills and style, he should be a person in the martial arts, and he takes on some bodyguard work on weekdays.
While looking at the scenery, Kazekage listened to the merchant of the Western Regions next door, hummed a song he didn't understand, took a bath, and fell asleep.
A breeze blew, the candles on the table were blown out, and the wind shadow just wanted to rekindle it, but was stopped by Xie Chengli, "Change clothes, let's go." ”
"Now?"
They did want to visit King Rong's mansion at night, but, as far as Kazekage knew, in the inn where they were now, there were at least four people staring at them, if they set off directly, wouldn't it directly expose them to the noses of those four people?
A smile appeared at the corner of Xie Chengli's mouth, "It's now." ”
The two changed into night clothes, and went out directly through the window, Yangzhou in the middle of the night is no different from Kyoto, there is no liveliness during the day, and it looks a little bleak at night.
Halfway through, Fengying suddenly realized that something was wrong, the road Xie Chengli was walking was not the direction of King Rong's Mansion at all. No wonder Xie Chengli didn't worry about the few people who followed behind, it turned out that he didn't go to King Rong's Mansion to inquire about the news at all.
The place where Xie Chengli stopped was the granary of Yangzhou City, where all the grain in Yangzhou City was stored, and it was guarded by heavy soldiers.
The night in Yangzhou was cold, and Fengying couldn't help but shiver, "Master, how long are we going to stay here?" ”
In fact, Xie Chengli was not very comfortable, his lips were frozen purple, but the people who followed him were still very dedicated and motionless.
After thinking about it again, Xie Chengli still decided to go home.
And the few people who followed behind him, when they saw that he went back without doing anything, they just wanted to scold their mother, which caused them to stay in the cold wind for so long!
