Huaiqing Mansion is an ancient city, known as Huaizhou in ancient times.

The name of Huaiqing comes from the Yuan Dynasty's Yuan Renzong Aiyu Li Bali Bada. Legend has it that before the emperor succeeded to the throne, he had been in Huaizhou for five years, during which he visited the hometown, understood the suffering of the local people, and assisted the state officials to develop the people's livelihood, which was very popular with the people of Huaizhou.

Later, Aiyu Li Bali Bada became the emperor, changed the year name to "Huangqing", and Huaizhou was renamed Huaiqing Road, until Zhu Yuanzhang unified the world in the Ming Dynasty and changed it to Huaiqing Mansion.

Huaiqing City is located on the plain of northern Henan, and there is no natural danger to rely on, and it has never been the key pass of the soldiers. However, it is precisely because the official road is straight and the carriages and horses are accessible, that this place has become the main road for freight merchants and travelers in Henan, Jin, Shandong and Hebei. In addition to Luoyang and Kaifeng, Huaiqing can also be regarded as the most prosperous city in the Yu realm.

At noon, it was the most crowded time of the day in front of the city gates. Outside the West City Gate, the carriages, horses and pedestrians who want to enter the city have lined up into a long queue of more than ten zhang. There were many guards on the city wall, as well as huge stone carts and other equipment to defend the city, and at the gate of the city, a row of horse-repellent horns was lying in the middle of the road, and a small colonel with five or six soldiers was questioning and interrogating the people entering the city one by one.

Nowadays, bandits are rampant in Henan, and it is said that several bandits who were originally active in the Jin realm have also entered the Yu realm, and all the state capitals and towns have added twelve points of caution, for fear of being mixed into the city by the bandits.

In the procession to enter the city, two horses stood out. On a white horse in front of him rode a boy dressed as a scholar in a green shirt, and on the black horse following behind was a young girl in a green skirt and a petite figure, and it was clear at a glance that they were a pair of master and servants.

Of course, the person who attracts the attention of others the most is not the horse, but the person on the horse. It's okay for the little girl, the son in the scholar's costume is handsome and handsome, and he is really handsome, no matter who sees it, he can't help but want to take a few more looks.

As the team slowly moved forward, it wasn't long before the two of them came to the checkpoint by the city gate. The boy in the green shirt took the reins of the horse and did not dismount, but showed a look of arrogance.

The little colonel guarding the city turned pale and shouted: "Who are you! Do you want to die, quickly dismount Lao Tzu!"

But the boy in the green shirt did not respond at all, nor did he reply, as if he had not heard the soldier's words.

If the little school guarding the city gate is a woman, maybe he can't be angry with this young man in green shirts, just because he is too handsome, most women will be moved when they see it, but it's a pity that this little school is a big man, the more he looks at this young man in green shirts, the more he feels unpleasant, and he is furious at the moment, shouting: "Are you deaf kid! If you don't get off the horse, Lao Tzu will arrest you as a bandit and kill your head!"

At this time, the little girl ring behind had already jumped off the horse, walked closer, and said to the little colonel guarding the city: "This big brother, I have something to say to you." ”

Xiao Xiao said angrily: "What words?"

Xiao Yahuan put her mouth to the other party's ear, muttered a few words, and took out a piece of broken silver weighing two pieces from her arms and stuffed it into Xiao Xiaoxiao's hand.

The little colonel guarding the city gate had a blue and white face, but his attitude changed suddenly, and he smiled with a smile: "How embarrassing is this, the little one doesn't dare to accept the girl's silver." ”

Xiao Yahuan waved her hand and said, "You're welcome, even if it's a reward from the son, don't you get out of the way and let the son enter the city!"

The little colonel said, "Yes, yes, thank you." He stuffed the broken silver into his pocket, turned to the soldier and shouted: "Why don't you move the wooden barrier quickly, you can move it out of the way, don't scratch the child's mount!"

The hornwood in the middle of the road was removed, and the boy in the green shirt and the little girl each drove their horses and galloped into the city gate.

This pair of master and servant dressed as Gongzi Yahuan are Ximen Tong and Mo Yu who came to Huaiqing City to participate in the hero's banquet.

Entering the gate of Huaiqing City, the two came to the street, Ximen Pupil's handsome face still seemed to have a layer of ice, and he reined in the horse and said, "Hey, where are we going to stay?"

Mo Yu smiled and said: "Childe only needs to go straight, turn around on the cross street in front of him, and walk along the side street for another three or four hundred steps, and you can see the signboard of a 'Fu Lai Bao' inn, which is a time-honored brand in this Huaiqing City, the guest rooms are comfortable and not expensive, let's live there, okay?"

Ximen Tong didn't say much, and he was about to do it, Mo Yu said: "When we went out, Young Master Hua and my wife both instructed us to be more careful when we came to Huaiqing on this trip, and we couldn't be too public, just now when we were at the city gate, why did Gongzi deliberately get along with the little colonel guarding the gate and cause trouble for no reason? Originally, we only had to get off the horse and pass, but it cost an extra tael of silver. ”

Ximen Hitomi snorted lightly and said, "Anyway, even if I cause trouble, you have the ability to settle it." And you took away a few thousand taels of silver from me, what is the extra silver to spend?"

Mo Yu tilted his head to look at Ximen Tong's face, and said, "It turns out that Ximen Gongzi is still holding a grudge against Mo'er for taking the silver ticket. Childe is always not careful enough, and it would have been more appropriate to put the silver ticket on my body, and when it costs money anyway, Mo'er will pay the bill. ”

She grinned and said, "The son should also know that the master and servant of a big family go out together, and most of the money is placed on the servant. ”

Ximen Hitomi was really reluctant to mention the matter of the silver ticket, so he said: "What did you say to the captain at the city gate just now, and he stopped bothering me?"

Mo Yu said: "I didn't say anything, I just said that it was the second son of Lord Shi of Huaiqing Prefect who was riding on the horse, and he hurried into the city this time to let him know each other." ”

Ximen Tong frowned and said, "You make up so nonsense, aren't you afraid that you will be caught by them as bandits?"

Mo Yu said: "The prefect of Huaiqing City, Shi Dongchang, is a member of the Beizhili clan, and has three sons, although he has been an official in Yujing for many years, he only takes the eldest son and the third prince by his side, and the second son has been admitted to the examination, and has stayed in Beijing to study, and has never been to Huaiqing. Mo'er has already inquired about these things clearly, we pretended to be the second son of Master Shi, and it was seamless, even if we told the master of the Yamen of Huaiqing Mansion, we couldn't find a flaw, if the little colonel guarding the city gate could find out, that was his ability!"

Mo Yu said a lot of words, but Ximen Hitomi was just silent. He didn't know how this little girl knew so many things, and even the prefect of Huaiqing had given birth to several sons, but since she was a disciple of "Thousand Flowers", it was not surprising that she seemed to know more.

Ximen Hitomi has been to the "Evil Dog Gate" for many years, and has experienced a lot of big battles in the past two years, so he can't be regarded as a fledgling, but when he goes out with Mo Yu, Ximen Hitomi always feels like he doesn't know anything about hairy boys.

This feeling was really bad, and he couldn't stand it.

And this feeling began when the two of them left Biluo Village five days ago.

When Ximen Hitomi was called to the stone house by Hua Bushi that day and ordered him to go to Huaiqing City with Mo Yu to participate in the Heroes Conference, Mo Yu, who was standing on the side, was still shy with a red face, looking like a little girl who had never been far away. Hua Bushi also told Ximen Tong to take care of Mo Yu along the way, and he was full of promises at that time.

However, the two disguised themselves as master servants and went on the road, and Simon Hitomi realized that people were not good-looking. Mo Yu not only doesn't need his care at all, but takes care of him meticulously, and in addition to the beautiful and innocent girl's appearance, Mo Yu's shrewdness and ability are probably not as good as the ** lake for decades.

Ximen Hitomi was originally a child of a rich family, and when he went out to live in a hotel, he would definitely find the most haode inn and live in the most expensive upper room, and he would go to the largest restaurant for dinner, order the most haode wine and food, and he didn't care how much he spent. But Mo Yu didn't agree with this kind of approach, and she had a very good reason.

"Young Master Hua and my wife have instructed, this trip must not be publicized, we must keep a low profile, those high-class inns, there are many high-rollers living in the rivers and lakes, we must avoid attracting their attention, so we can't live. However, since we pretended to be the sons and maids of large families, we couldn't go to live in too inferior mule and horse shops, so we only needed to find a medium-grade inn in a remote and quiet place, and stay in a general room. ”

"As for eating, we can't go to the big restaurant restaurant, just because those places are also where people in the rivers and lakes often gather. In fact, it is best for us to stay in the room and ask the innkeeper to bring food, even if we must go out to eat, it is best to find some ordinary small restaurants on the side of the road. ”

Regarding Mo Yujiao's general reason, Ximen Tong disagreed, shook his head and said: "Mo Xiaomei is too careful!

Mo Yu Zhengse said: "Childe is very wrong to say this! Many times, even if we don't provoke others, we will also have trouble, and even if we are safe at the moment, it is not good for our whereabouts to be seen by the people in the rivers and lakes, only if we don't live and eat with them, it is more secure." If Young Master Hua gave special instructions when he was leaving, did Childe forget it?"

She pursed her lips and said, "And you don't want to call me Mo Xiaomei in the future, just call me Mo'er." The two of us are now dressed as a pair of master and servant, have you ever seen the son-in-law of which family calls Yahuan Xiaomei?"

Mo Yu spoke of the Tao, and lifted Hua Bushi out, making Ximen Tong irrefutable. The so-called good men don't fight with women, and Ximen Tong is inconvenient to say more, and he is not familiar with the path of Yujing, and it is not easy to find the kind of remote inn that Mo Yu said, so the matter of the two of them staying in the hotel and eating along the way is naturally handed over to Mo Yu Zhang Luo.

Staying in the hotel and eating are all trivial things, and Ximen Hitomi is not a person who is accustomed to being arrogant, even if the inn room is smaller and the food tastes worse, he doesn't care. And what made him a little unbearable was that Mo Yu did not allow him to drink.
