The largest inn in Nanyang County, Laifu Inn.

In the backyard of the Rifle Inn, there are two exquisite independent small courtyards, five guest rooms, two clean rooms in the northwest corner are divided into one for men and one for each woman, and a stove room in the northeast corner, with pots and pans and stoves. There were three wagons in the open space behind the house, and there were some more places to spare.

There are also seasonal flowers and plants planted in the courtyard, a tall pomegranate tree, the tree grows in the courtyard on the east side, and the other half falls into the courtyard on the west side.

The east courtyard, which was five taels of silver a day, was contracted two days ago, and it was not until the evening of this day that two carriages came from the back door of the Rifle Inn.

"Master Qiu, you're here."

The man at the inn trotted over and stumbled open the gate of the east yard.

"We clean the yard and the house every day, and the bedding has just been washed and dried, and it is clean and ......."

Before he finished speaking, the man saw the maid in a carriage behind him carry out two futons.

The young man's words stopped abruptly, and he immediately changed his conversation, pointed to a room in the east courtyard and said, "Here, this house is the largest, and there is a separate clean room in it, which is smaller, but it is convenient for washing." ”

Wanzhao carried the futon into the largest room that the young man said, and glanced around: "You go out, we will call you if there is something." ”

"Hey, I see, you call me for something."

The young man turned and went out as he spoke, but, when he went out of the yard, he turned his head to look, and when it was true that the maid had begun to make the bed and fold the quilt in the largest room, he could not help but exhale softly.

The two courtyards are built side by side, and the door out of the courtyard is the backyard of the inn, because it is separated from the front of the inn by a wall, it is very quiet.

The evening light tidied up the room, and the clear sky served Lu Biao Ge to freshen up in the clean room on the side.

By the time Chunhua and Qiushi had taken some of the necessary things off the carriage, Zhixue had already come back from a circle outside.

The three of them looked at each other, and Zhexue's eyes stopped in two places for a while, and when Chunhua and Qiushi bowed their heads slightly, she turned around and entered the house by the gate of the east courtyard and never came out.

At night, when the lights of the east courtyard were bright, I saw two maids and two small servants driving cars in the courtyard coming in and out.

The young man who helped open the door stood in the corridor on the second floor of the inn and looked back, making sure that the boy lived in a room in the middle of the courtyard on the east side, and then tiptoed downstairs.

The shopkeeper was making an abacus behind the counter, and when he saw the young man slipping out of the house, he hurriedly shouted: "Second son, what are you going to do?" ”

The young man raised his voice and said, "Cousin, the master of the canteen said that I should go outside to see if there is any firewood to sell, and let me buy two loads of firewood and come back?" ”

"Is there no firewood?"

The shopkeeper frowned suspiciously, It's not that two days ago, ten loads of firewood were sent by people, and they were all used up so quickly.

After using up, the young man was a child of his distant cousin's family, his hands and feet were quite sharp, and he was a relative, so the shopkeeper didn't think much about it, and waved her out.

When he walked out of the inn, the young man came to a man wearing a hat and carrying a load of firewood, and deliberately asked loudly, "How do you sell this firewood?" ”

The man replied in a rough voice: "Three pennies and a load." ”

"I can't do this firewood, I don't want it if I don't do it."

The young man bent down and turned over the firewood, and said in a low voice, "They live in the east courtyard, and the boy in Tsing Yi lives in the house in the middle of the east courtyard, two maids, and three little maids." ”

"yes, got it." The man snorted lightly, stretched out his hand and pulled the firewood in front of him, and his voice became a little louder, "My firewood is very dry, you can use it when you go back." ”

Only then did the young man straighten up: "Okay, you come with me." ”

The man hurriedly picked up firewood and followed the young man into the firewood room of the inn.

When it was dark, the man came out of the firewood room, changed into a black shirt, covered his face, and quietly hid in the backyard, near the corner of the east courtyard behind the flowers.

In the courtyard, the evening light and the clear sky were busy in the house in the middle of the east courtyard, cleaning the house, scrubbing everywhere to make sure it was clean before going to the stove room to burn it people said. Dinner was eaten at the second girl, Lu Xiaoli's house, so there was no need to cook.

When they came out and covered the door and entered the next room, they could still hear the voices of two people talking to the little girl: "The fourth prince said that there is no need for anyone to serve at night, you can also go down and rest, and you have to hurry tomorrow." ”

When Chunhua and Qiushu heard this, they answered, and the two entered the house near the wall of the west courtyard in the east courtyard, and the evening light and clear sky went to the second room in the east.

Soon, the lights in the house were extinguished one by one, and when the moon was in the middle of the sky, several dark shadows came in from outside the wall.

In the moonlight, the big knife in his hand flashed.

The leader asked, "What about the people?" ”

The firewood bearer came out of the dark corner and pointed to the small courtyard in the dark: "That kid is in the middle room of the east courtyard, the two driving maids live in the house against the wall on the west side, the two maids live in the second room on the east side, and there is a small maid who lives in the house on this side of the entrance of the examination courtyard." ”

The group quickly disappeared into the dark night, and within a moment, several dull cries of pain were heard.

But in the middle of a quarter of an hour, the two courtyards were silent again, and there was no more sound.

When Lu Yangge woke up, it was already dawn, she stretched out in the warm quilt, and rubbed against the soft quilt.

"Is the princess awake?"

Xu heard movement inside, and Wanzhao, who was guarding outside, called softly outside the door.

Lu Yangge didn't move, and he didn't respond.

Wanzhao held his breath and listened for a while, before whispering to Qingtian to prepare a meal. She prepared a hot water handkerchief and waited for about a quarter of an hour before pushing open the door and entering.

"Six thieves came last night." Wanzhao put down the hot water, rolled up his sleeves and waited for Lu Yangge to get up, while telling the details of last night's events.

Here came six thieves, and a young man from the inn.

Originally, things didn't go so smoothly and didn't end so quickly.

When these people saw that the matter was revealed, they wanted to set fire to the house, but it was the people sent by General Zhou in the next courtyard to help that they caught all seven people.

"Did the princess hear anything last night?"

"Nope."

"I didn't hear it either, but Sister Sunny Sky did, and she didn't call me."

Wanzhao was skillful, and quickly put a hanging hair on Lu Yangge, and picked a delicate hairpin ring for Lu Yangge to wear.

Qingkong entered the house with the shredded chicken noodles that had just come out of the pot and asked, "Is the princess going back to Jiangjiaba today?" ”

Lu Yangge: "Don't go back, since General Zhou has sent people, just to bother them together, let's go to the county government to meet the county lieutenant Shen, and then go back to Jiangjiaba when the matter is settled." ”

Qingtian put the dishes and chopsticks: "Okay, then I'll go out and talk to Chunhua Zhexue." ”

Lu Yangge dressed himself up gracefully and luxuriously from the evening photos, and the girl in the mirror was originally born delicate, coupled with the luxurious hairpin ring, which made people more and more noble.

There are too many things today, first of all, she will be the princess and will meet the head snake in Nanyang County.
