Chapter XVII
Chi Tao left with a thousand thanks, and found Zhao Yazi to find a house without mentioning it.
When I returned to the inn on this day, I saw a few big men dressed in black and wearing red belts around the door, blocking the door tightly, and Chi Tao couldn't help but look at it twice.
Xiao Er hurriedly greeted him, nodded and said to the man in black: "I live in the hotel, I came here a few days ago." ”
The man in black nodded and stepped out of the way.
Xiao Er brought Chi Tao in and breathed a sigh of relief: "Tao Langjun, I'm sorry." Today, a big family has come, and we have three or four floors, which are guards. As he spoke, he led Chi Tao to the staircase, and said with a smile: "The two of you have nothing to do, don't go up, there are guards on duty at the corner of the corridor, if you are caught, you can't tell!" ”
Chi Tao agreed to go upstairs, and before she knocked on the door, Chi Xing opened the door: "You're back!" ”
Chi Tao smiled: "My husband has only been out for half a day, does my wife miss me like this?" ”
Chi Xing glanced at her with a smile: "Flim tongue!" Do you see downstairs? What a battle! I don't know who it is? ”
Chi Tao smiled and shook his head: "If you want to know, I'll just go and see it at night!" ”
Chi Xing hurriedly stopped: "Don't run around!" Maybe it's a princess, it's not a joke if you collide! ”
Chi Tao didn't speak. But in the evening, the sisters had dinner and took a bath, Chi Xing fell asleep early, and Chi Tao climbed out of the window wearing only a dark undershirt - fortunately, although this body has not been systematically trained and lacks strength, it is slender and soft, and flexible enough.
In the account room, it was found that the third floor was a first-class room, and each room cost one tael of silver per night, and the fourth floor was even more special, with each room costing five taels per night. The scale of this inn is so large, there are at least forty rooms on the third and fourth floors combined, and it costs more than a hundred taels for a night.
According to the understanding of this period of time, one tael of silver is the monthly expenses of a peasant family.
So even if it's not a princess who lives above, it's also a great character, how can you not go to see the excitement?
It was almost ugly, and the noisy night of the bustling place had fallen silent, and occasionally the cold wind blew a few dogs barking.
Chi Tao slowly climbed from the back of the building to the roof.
She patiently peeled off a tile and looked in with wide eyes.
But after a while, it was still dark in front of me.
Her night vision has always been excellent, how could it be......
Suddenly, a word crossed his mind, Chengchen.......
She patted her head in frustration, how could she forget this stubble. This is a high-end inn, not a farmer in the village, they will install dust under the roof, one to keep warm, and the other to be safe. Large families will paint gold carvings on the dust, which is also a manifestation of wealth and strength.
It looks like I can only sneak into the hallway.
Chi Tao touched the edge, rolled upside down and touched window by window, touched a loose one, pushed it gently, and swept it in with a swing.
The moment she landed silently, she could see everything in the house.
There was no one in the house, and this should have been a guest room, and it was an upper room, and the furnishings were much more elaborate than theirs. But at this time, there were a lot of pillows, incense burners, foot stoves, screens and other things, and even portable wind stoves, such as the utensils used by Madame and Miss to go out of the house.
Is it really a princess?
Chi Tao muttered in his heart, stuck to the door and listened to the movement, quietly opened the door a crack, and saw that there was no one guarding the corridor, so he tiptoed out.
Needless to say, the main owner must be staying in the biggest and best room.
Chi Tao was like a snake, silently sliding to the door of Tianzi No. 1 room.
Before she could pull out the guy who was ready to pry the door, a small dagger she bought at the bazaar today, she heard a suppressed cry from inside.
Chi Tao was stunned.
What's going on, look at the posture, this is a lady of the sky, right?
Another bang.
Chi Tao was in a hurry, stretched out his hand and pushed the door, and it opened silently.
Inside was a huge suite, and outside it was brightly lit, but it was empty.
The door to the inner room was hidden, and there was a sound of talking.
"Hey...... No matter how good you are, you won't be able to escape from the palm of my hand......"
Chi Tao quietly stuck to the outside of the inner door and looked in through the crack in the door.
In the room, red candles were shining, and on the Seiko stepping bed with an ornate curtain hanging, a girl dressed in goose yellow had her hands tied behind her back, and her mouth was covered with strips of cloth, and she looked at a man standing in front of the bed with horrified eyes.
From behind, the man was a tall and thin man, wearing a cyan satin robe, who seemed to be in his twenties, and said with a sneer: "No matter your golden branches and jade leaves, it's not that you can't escape the palm of my hand!" If you are obedient, I will spare you your life. If not, I can only send you to the underworld and find your maids! As he spoke, he pounced.
Chi Tao's head "boomed", and the memory came rushing like a wave that opened the floodgates, engulfing her almost instantly.
The scene is exactly the same....... my father-in-law likes luxury the most, and his residence in Hangzhou is a rather large Chinese building next to the West Lake. She still remembers that her room was on the third floor, and if it was spring, every time she opened the window, she would see the smell of lake water......
She also remembered that her father-in-law's bedroom was also furnished with such an elaborate stepping bed......
