On the second day of staying at the inn, the weather was getting worse and worse.

It was raining continuously, and the rain did not stop all day, and it was winter again, and the temperature was suddenly cold, and even the white mist was sprayed when he spoke.

Fortunately, Ji Yanning had already prepared warm clothes for everyone, and there was a charcoal fire in the inn, so it was okay for a while, but this weather was really not suitable for continuing to ride horses.

Ji Yanning can only stay in this town for two more days, but if the rain continues, they still have to continue to hurry, but there is not much distance left, if they take a carriage, they can reach Laizhou City in about five days.

Since the last meal, Ying'er has been a little entangled.

Cao Lin was really good to her, but after she calmed down, she found that he would always inadvertently ask her about the eldest lady.

Just as many people don't understand, why Marquis Xiao would be so good to Ji Yanning, when Ji Yanning ordered the Northern Army with the Summoning Northern Order, everyone was surprised, but they didn't expect that this crucial Summoning Northern Order would be in Ji Yanning's hands.

Cao Lin didn't understand, and would always inadvertently inquire about Ji Yanning's origin and the past of the Hou Mansion in Dingbei from Ying'er's mouth.

Ying'er finally realized that something was wrong.

The sky was gloomy, and the sound of falling rain was still ticking under the eaves outside the inn, and Ying'er was wearing a thick cyan jacket and was about to bring hot tea to the room on the second floor.

But before she stepped on the stairs, there were a lot of people in the inn, most of whom seemed to be tall and big, and when she walked in, she brought in a gust of cold wind, which soaked the small shop that was not warm in the first place.

Ying'er turned her head to look at these people with some curiosity, led by a man and a woman who were all dressed well, the man was about twenty-four or five years old, and the woman was the same age as Ji Yanning, it seemed that she was about fifteen years old.

The others were supposed to be their guards, dressed in the same attire and with swords at their waists.

Ying'er's eyes flashed slightly, and the eldest lady said that when you go out, you should not pay too much attention to others, after all, there will be any kind of people on this road.

She continued to walk upstairs with her hot tea.

The group of people who came in just now looked at the small inn, and then a guard stepped forward and said, "Shopkeeper, come to two upper rooms and twelve secondary rooms." ”

The shopkeeper looked at them with some embarrassment and said, "There is only one upper room left, and there are only nine rooms left in the second room." ”

Hearing the shopkeeper's words, the man and the woman led by them frowned slightly.

The woman opened her mouth and said, "Brother, why don't we change to an inn?"

The guard spoke, "Miss, this inn is the largest in this town. ”

In this weather, if there are no empty rooms in this inn, I am afraid that it will be difficult to find others.

The woman looked at the shopkeeper and said, "Then please ask the shopkeeper to clear out two upper rooms and ten secondary rooms for us, and we will refund them double the price for those who are cleared." ”

The shopkeeper's face became a little delicate, and he said, "These girls, in this weather, it is really difficult for the small shop to drive people away. ”

Triple the price, it can't be more.

The shopkeeper was slightly stunned, in fact, they just lacked one upper room and three secondary rooms, maybe there would still be a squeeze.

He smiled and said, "Then you sit here first, and I'll arrange it now." ”

The woman snorted softly, and then sat down in the lobby with her people, because there were so many people, it suddenly took up half of the hall.

Cao Lin, who was walking in from outside, was slightly stunned at first when he saw this piece of people, and soon regained his expression.

After all, this is an inn, and it is normal for people to come and go.

He was about to go back to his room, but the shopkeeper stopped him: "This son, wait a minute." ”

Cao Lin looked back at the shopkeeper in confusion.

The shopkeeper thought that among the inns, that is, Ji Yanning and his party had the largest number of people, and they asked for three upper rooms and several secondary rooms, and even the maids lived in the upper rooms, so it should not be difficult to get an upper room from them.

The shopkeeper said to Cao Lin: "This son, we don't have enough room here, can you please ask your young lady, can you give up an upper room?"

Cao Lin frowned slightly, Ji Yanning lived in the upper room, Ying'er lived on the left side of Ji Yanning's room in order to take care of her conveniently, and Yuan Wu and Jinhe lived on the right side of Ji Yanning's room in order to protect her safety at any time.

He said, "Shopkeeper, we came first, you can't kick us out, right?"

The shopkeeper laughed and whispered to Cao Lin: "If you can give you an upper room, we will refund you twice the price of this room." ”

Cao Lin glanced at the shopkeeper and said, "Do you think we look like people who are short of money?"

Ji Yanning's net worth is not to say whether he is rich or not, but there is indeed no one in Baochang Ji who is not hot.

The shopkeeper was choked by Cao Lin's words, and he was speechless for a while.

Cao Lin was about to continue walking, but the shopkeeper stepped forward to stop him and said: "Little boy, we want an upper room, your young lady's maids can afford to live in the upper room, and there is indeed no shortage of money, but our new guests do need an upper room, so it is better to be accommodating." ”

Hearing the conversation between the shopkeeper and Cao Lin, the group of people just now looked at them.

Especially knowing that one of their maids lives in a room, I want them to give up a room for the young master and the young lady.

One of the guards stood up and said to Cao Lin, "Give up an upper room, and we will give you three times the price." ”

Cao Lin glanced at them, and saw that their first son and girl didn't seem to be from ordinary families, and he said, "I'm just a small guard, and the decision of our eldest lady is not something I can influence." ”

The woman in the group spoke: "Then please come and talk." ”

Cao Lin's eyes flashed slightly, he knew that Ji Yanning's impression of himself had never been very good, if such a thing bothered her, he was afraid that she would feel that she was too incompetent as a guard.

Ying'er sent tea to Ji Yanning, and then retreated to send some pastries and fruits.

It's just that as soon as she walked down from the room on the second floor, she saw that the group of people just now was talking to Cao Lin.

"Girl!" saw Ying'er go downstairs, and the shopkeeper stepped forward.

Ying'er subconsciously took two steps back and asked, "What's wrong?"

The shopkeeper said with some courtesy: "Girl, I want to ask you, can you let out an upper room for other guests, and we will arrange a second room for you?"

Ying'er frowned, and said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, you, who open the door to do business, are all guests, and we can't afford to pay, why do you want me to let you?"

She is not afraid of causing trouble, so she naturally refused the shopkeeper's request here.

Yuan Wu seemed to hear the movement outside and walked out of the room.

Seeing what Ying'er and Cao Lin were talking to them, he understood the whole story after listening to two sentences.

In such weather, most of the people who are in a hurry find an inn to rest for two days, and it seems that they have come here to take shelter from the rain.

Ying'er and Cao Lin both looked at Yuan Wu.

"Shopkeeper, we really can't let this room go, you can find other guests. "There are a lot of guests in this inn, so I don't have to look for them.

The shopkeeper looked at Yuan Wu's cold face, which didn't look like a person to be messed with, so he dispelled this idea.

But the girl in the crowd said, "Miss Ben just wants you to give up a room, and the price is negotiable." ”

Yuan Wu glanced at her, did not speak, and was about to turn around and leave.

Seeing that Yuan Wu actually ignored herself like this, the girl became angry for a while, and was about to slap the table, but was stopped by her brother.

"Qi'er, don't be impulsive. The man said, "It's okay for me to live in the second room, don't make trouble." ”

The girl called Qi'er was about to have a seizure, when she heard her brother's words, she snorted lightly, glared at Ying'er and them, and then asked the shopkeeper to go down and arrange it.

The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief, and then went down to arrange, and it was much easier to get a few secondary rooms, after all, the people who lived in the second room were generally not too rich people, and they were willing to go to live in the shop.

And so the group stayed.

Ji Yanning didn't know what was going on outside, and Ying'er sent pastries to Ji Yanning again, and then told her what had just happened.

"Miss didn't see it, that woman was fierce, and she looked like everyone was going to let her. Ying'er said to Ji Yanning.

After all, when they stayed on weekdays, if they met some small inns, Ji Yanning would sometimes stay in the second room, she felt that it was understandable, but the girl was just not happy.

Ji Yanning chuckled, did not speak, and continued to look down at his book.

Ying'er didn't bother Ji Yanning anymore, she walked to the back of the screen and added some charcoal fire, which made the room a little warmer.

It didn't take long for Yuan Wu to knock at the door and say, "Miss." ”

"Come in. Yuan Wu walked in, closed the door with his backhand, stepped forward and saluted, "Miss, it was Rong Fangyu, the prince of the Lijun Palace, and Rong Fangqi, the county lord, who stayed in the inn just now. ”

Ji Yanning raised his eyes and looked at Yuan Wu.

Lijun Palace, this is harsh for Ji Yanning.

Rong Wu, the king of Lijun, is Rong Liang's cousin, and one of the masterminds who framed the Ying family and the Lou family, and later Rong Liang became the emperor and gave Rong Wu a side of power, and Laizhou was Rong Wu's fief.

I didn't expect this world to be so small, and I could meet Rong Wu's children in an inn.

Her eyes moved slightly, and then she said: "That's it, if people don't offend me, I won't offend people, don't take the initiative to make trouble." ”

It was Rong Wu who had an enmity with her, and she was not angry with those two people.

What's more, they are now in Laizhou, and if something happens to their son, they will not be able to escape trouble.
