Mu Yutao's eyesight is very good, so although he is dressed as a eunuch, his waist is deliberately thickened a little, thinking that he is wrapped in silk cloth; Although he has low eyebrows and ears, combs his hair in an ordinary bun, and can only see the white neck from behind, Mu Yutao can still see the true identity of the little eunuch carved in pink at a glance, the queen of the dynasty, the princess of Yan Kingdom.

Mu Yutao was suspicious of Luoxi, so he did not expose the two, but followed the two into an inn without moving, listened with his ears, and only heard the sound of Suosuo's fabric, thinking that he was changing clothes.

Inexplicably, Mu Yutao's ears turned red, and he took a half step back, but there was no other sound in the room, and gradually he couldn't even hear the sound of fabric.

Mu Yutao waited for a long time, the door finally opened, and two young jade-faced men walked out, holding a graceful and chic manner, and at first glance they often dressed as men.

Princess Luoxi and Zhen Zhen walked west after leaving the inn, although there were occasional stops on the way, but the goal was very clear, Mu Yutao followed unhurriedly, watching them hurriedly enter a familiar hall, and suddenly had a headache.

Yanyue Pavilion - the largest tavern in Chu City, Chu people are good at literature and wine, Yanyue Pavilion is the place where literati and ink writers gather the most, but within the Five Elements Continent, the world knows more about the beauty list held by Yanyue Pavilion every two years on the Yuan Festival.

The people of Chu are civilized, and they do not require women to go out of the gate, and they do not step out of the second door. When the Empress Dowager Rong was in charge of the government, she even used some female officials to help deal with affairs, and it became a common thing for women to go out and show their faces, which provided a lot of opportunities for the people of Chu to fairly select beauties.

Of course, this is also a great recognition of the boudoir women in the selection, and the current Mu Guifei was the top three on the beauty list before she left the cabinet, which shows the breadth of this list.

Therefore, the selection of the beauty list of Yanyue Pavilion has already become a major event.

When the evening and Zhen Zhen arrived, the selection of the beauty list had already begun, and the portraits of these beauties were placed on the high platform, and several beauties were standing. The entire hall of the hall has long been flooded, and it is inevitable that it will be a little difficult to break through the thick human wall and see the whole picture, and it is inevitable that it will be unstable to stand between pushing and shouting.

Zhen Zhen disappeared after entering the Yanyue Pavilion, Mu Yutao was already a little unhappy when he saw the queen and the peddler pawn crowded together, and walked two steps quickly to support Luo Xi, and dragged Luo Xi's arm to the side of the alley.

"You, why are you here?"

"Mother, you're too bold!"

The two of them exited at the same time, the words fell together, the embarrassment gradually arose, the alley was very close to the main road, but the cheers that came over seemed to be separated by water, and the trance was not real.

"Don't call me Niangniang, my name is Ximei, because I was born in the early morning of winter." In the end, Xi Mei was thick-skinned and opened her mouth first, but what she said was to introduce her name, firm and solemn.

"The minister is in a hurry, and he is rude, so please ask the queen to return to the palace immediately." Mu Yutao returned to his previous indifference and opened his mouth to persuade.

"What if you don't go back, does the general want to tie up the palace back?" Xi Mei's words were a little playful, a little cute, obviously didn't take Mu Yutao's words to heart, although she had always been like this, tonight really made Mu Yutao a little annoyed, and her words couldn't help but bring some coldness.

"I don't dare, it's just that the image of virtuous and virtuous people you have created for a while will not be retained, and it will inevitably make the world laugh."

"You think I care?" Xi Mei asked seriously, still with those bright eyes, which made Mu Yutao swallow back the words that came to his mouth, but Xi Mei didn't intend to let him go like this, "In your eyes, am I such a restrained person?" ”

Of course Ximei is not, not to mention that with her identity, as long as Yan Guo is still in one day, she must also be the queen of Chu, even if such a rebellious crime as sneaking out of the palace falls on the princess of Yan Guo, at most it will be grounded for a period of time.

"Uh...... When do you plan to return to the palace? Mu Yutao changed the topic with interest.

"Before Dawn"

"No, the queen's daughter, how can you spend the night outside, if you return to the palace immediately, the minister can also help you hide a thing or two, before dawn, don't."

"Why not, you and Zhen Zhen are by my side, and nothing can happen, the king in the palace wants to fast, and I have arranged the others, and no one will find out."

"That's not going to work either! How can a dignified queen wander outside the palace overnight! ”

"It's not what I want to marry, if it weren't for the situation, who would be the queen of Chu!"

……

Ximei was also a little annoyed, and she didn't speak angrily.

Zhen Zhen looked for the sound of the quarrel and came over, and saw her Royal Highness with her hands on her waist, obviously angry, the alley was a little dim, and a man in black stood opposite the princess, facing each other, for fear that the princess would suffer, he instantly drew his sword and went straight away, and when he got closer, he saw that it was Mu Yutao, and he couldn't help but be taken aback, and quickly stood in front of Luo Xi.

"General, my princess saved you, you can't help but miss the old love."

Mu Yutao was speechless for a while, and looked at the setting sun through Zhen Zhen.

I saw that her eye circles were getting redder and redder, big tears were slipping down, and the sobbing sound in the alley gradually rose, Zhen Zhen was also stunned, and she didn't know what to do for a while, so she helped Ximei to squat down slowly, and her ......eyes gradually turned red.

Mu Yutao has had nothing to do with girls crying since he was a child, not to mention that it was the mother of a country who was squatting in front of him, coupled with Zhen Zhen's resentful gaze on the side, as if he had done something unreasonable and unforgivable, so he had to half-squat down and comforted softly: "Look at the perfect person ranking and go back, okay?" ”

"What do you look at, there are people in front of you, and you can't see it at all."

At this time, Ximei was like a child who was unhappy everywhere, complaining indiscriminately.

"Also, why did I write to you, if you don't reply to me, you will know that you are bullying me"

"Your sister also bullied me, she likes the king if she likes it, what's the matter with me, I know that she pretends to be generous in front of me, but she connives, and the female officials around her are angry with me, and she is double-faced."

"You don't care if you come out to relax, my father always encouraged me to travel when he was alive, he said that only when you have a wide range of knowledge can you cultivate your family, I never had to be so sneaky before"

……

Sunset complained for a long time, and gradually flooded.

Mu Yutao looked at the sky helplessly, and then looked at the corner of the faintly visible Yanyue Pavilion, and suddenly leaned over and hugged Ximei, before Ximei screamed, the person had already arrived on the roof of the house opposite the Yanyue Pavilion.

From this point of view, you can just see the whole picture of the beauty list evaluation platform, and the beauty standing on the stage is radiant, attracting everyone's attention, and no one notices the sudden two extra spectators on the house behind them.

It was a little cold on the roof, and Mu Yutao took off his coat and draped it over Ximei's shoulders.

Xi Mei was still angry in her heart and didn't pay attention to him.

Mu Yutao thought about it and took out a Luopa, handed it to Xi Mei, Xi Mei didn't even look at it, then sniffed vigorously and threw it back to Mu Yu Tao.

Mu Yutao was stunned for a moment, didn't answer, and took a piece from the hem of his robe, handed it over, and said before wiping his face at night, "Cover your face, don't let people recognize it"
