At the moment when Du Xiaomeng was about to step out of the door, Liu Lu grabbed her and asked, "Madam, do you want to prepare a sedan chair for you?" ”

Du Xiaomeng frowned and said, "What kind of sedan car?" What else do you go shopping in a sedan chair? ”

"That's good." Liu Lu didn't know where to get a piece of pink-green veil, "Madam, please put the veil on." ”

"What?" Du Xiaomeng's eyes widened and she looked at the veil on Liu Lu's hand in confusion.

Liu Lu explained: "Madam, your status is noble, your appearance, you can't just let others see it. ”

Du Xiaomeng glanced at her, and while dodging towards the door, she said nonchalantly: "If you are looked at a few times, you won't lose a piece of meat, don't be so troublesome!" ”

"No way!" Liu Lu had a tough attitude and a firm stance in front of the door, blocking Du Xiaomeng's way.

There was a stalemate for a while, and Liu Lu showed no signs of giving in. In order to go out smoothly, Du Xiaomeng had to give in, took the veil and wrapped her face tightly, revealing only a pair of eyes.

"Is that okay?" Du Xiaomeng looked at Liu Lu angrily.

Liu Lu nodded with satisfaction: "Okay." ”

The two walked out, and as soon as they reached the gate of the garden, they saw Zhan Di walking towards them.

"Sister-in-law, where are you going?" Zhan Li trotted over and threw himself into Du Xiaomeng's arms.

Du Xiaomeng replied: "I want to go outside." ”

Zhan Li behaved as excited as Liu Lu, and asked expectantly, "Sister-in-law, can I go with you?" ”

There was no reason to refuse her. Du Xiaomeng said briskly: "Okay, let's go together." ”

Du Xiaomeng, who finally walked out of the gate of the General's Mansion, touched the money bag hanging from his waist, raised his head and squinted to meet the bright sunshine, and took a deep breath hard, feeling extremely comfortable. The hard copper coins in the money bag made her waist straighten a lot.

Zhan Li led the way in front, Liu Lu held an umbrella in the back to block the sun for her, and walked forward with small steps, and it didn't take long to walk to a street lined with shops. The street is full of traffic, sedan cars come and go, and people are surging, a prosperous and lively scene.

As soon as he stopped on that street, Du Xiaomeng felt that many eyes were shooting from all directions, focusing on his body. She looked around, and as far as her eyes could see, there were no other women with veils covering their faces. Scarcity is expensive, no wonder it attracts the curious eyes of the surrounding crowd. Say that you can't just let others see your "noble" appearance, and now you are regarded as an outlier, how can you be noble?

The veil completely obscured the expression on her face, and Zhan Li and Liu Lu didn't notice the unhappiness in her heart.

Zhan Li, whose eyes were shining, happily said to Du Xiaomeng: "Sister-in-law, this is the most prosperous street in the capital!" Miscellaneous goods from the north and south, rare treasures, delicacies, silk and satin, everything. There is only what you can't think of, and there is nothing you can't buy. ”

Looking at the pride with which she spoke, Du Xiaomeng couldn't help but smile and quipped: "Can you really buy anything?" Is there an elixir for sale? ”

"This ......," Zhan Qi muttered. She thought about it for a moment, then replied earnestly, "Probably not, I haven't heard of anything like that for sale." ”

After that, she briskly turned to Du Xiaomeng's side, took Du Xiaomeng's hand, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, I'll take you to a good place!" After speaking, he couldn't help but drag Du Xiaomeng in one direction.

They had walked about a hundred meters through the crowd when suddenly a gong sounded in front of them, followed by a panicked noise from the crowd, and then, like a fried pan of oil, ran away in all directions in panic.

Before Du Xiaomeng could figure out what was going on, she was squeezed into a corner by the crowd running in all directions in a panic, and Liu Lu and Zhan Li were squeezed out of the room.

Soon, the surging crowd receded like a tidal wave. Du Xiaomeng breathed a sigh of relief, stood up straight, raised her head and looked around, looking for the traces of Zhan Li and Liu Lu.

She couldn't see Zhan Li and Liu Lu, but she saw that about two or three hundred meters ahead, there were three people lining up in front of her, one in the middle and one behind, slowly walking in her direction.

The two people who walked in front and behind were women. The one in front of him has a gong in his hand and takes a few steps to knock it. The one in the back had a rope in his hand, and the other end of the rope was firmly wrapped around the person walking in the middle.

The man who walked in the middle was dressed in a wide black robe that reached to the feet, with a black cloth belt wrapped around his head, and a thick black veil covering his face, which hung down from his head and covered his entire face. The man was so tightly wrapped that it was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman.

That person's dress was obviously completely different from the person Du Xiaomeng had seen before, and when he suddenly looked at it, he really looked like the woman in Afghanistan who couldn't even show her eyes! Judging by the situation, the man in the middle seemed to be escorted somewhere by the two middle-aged women. Are the people on the street running so fast because they see them? Who are they?
