Yang Qing smiled bitterly and cupped his fists, "Thank you for your concern, Sir." He did indeed need someone to take care of him.
Over here, he was a mere figurehead. He didn't even have anyone to order him around. He had to take care of all the trivial matters. For someone who was used to having someone take care of the trivial matters, it was indeed a little inconvenient.
Unexpectedly, Miao Yi continued to tease him, "Of course, if you like to visit brothels, I have nothing to say. You saw the one Xu Tangran married. If you have someone you like, let me know. I guarantee that no one here will reveal it to Qin Xi. "
Yang Qing's expression darkened again, "Sir, you're going a little overboard."
His words were polite, but he was cursing in his heart. 'I did have someone I liked, but you snatched it away. And you still have the cheek to say it?'
Miao Yi laughed heartily and left. He was a little annoyed by Yang Qing's way of tricking people. He made it seem like he was more capable than him. He would feel uncomfortable if he didn't make fun of him a few times …
Several days later, the City Guard Palace received news as well. Some merchants began to report the situation to the Commander's Manor of the Fourth District, expressing their concern about the decrease in traffic. However, no one dared to speak up in the City Guard Palace, so Miao Yi ignored them.
A few days later, the troops from the Sea of Constellations stationed in the other Celestial Avenues came into play.
Yang Qing immediately came to the rear palace after receiving the news. He met Miao Yi and reminded him, "Sir, the other places have already begun. We can begin here as well."
Inside the pavilion, Miao Yi was watching Yang Zhaoqing teach Hai Pingxin how to work. He said, "Inform the Commander of the Fourth District to come see me."
"Understood!" Yang Zhaoqing immediately stopped what he was doing and quickly took out the Starbell to contact him.
Yang Qing glanced at Yan Xiu, who was quietly standing behind Miao Yi. He didn't know where Yan Xiu had gone all these years, but he noticed that Yan Xiu had changed quite a bit after he came back. He had become much more taciturn. Miao Yi didn't assign Yan Xiu much either. Often, when Miao Yi appeared, Yan Xiu would quietly appear behind him, as though he was Miao Yi's shadow. Sometimes, you wouldn't even know where he had come from, as though he was a ghost. When you turned around, you would suddenly realize that he was right behind you, staring at you with a sinister smile.
In any case, Yang Qing felt that there was something wrong with Yan Xiu. There was also the pair of hands hidden in the sleeves. He had seen them before. The ten fingernails on those hands were green and shiny. They were suffused with a dim light and were as sharp as a wild beast's.
What was even more terrifying was Yan Xiu's smile. Occasionally, when she smiled at you, you would feel like she was looking at a dead person. Her smile could make your hair stand on end.
In any case, she felt that there was something wrong with Yan Xiu. He was like a completely different person from the Yan Xiu of the past, giving off a sinister feeling.
He couldn't figure out what had happened to Yan Xiu during the years he was gone. What could have happened to Yan Xiu to turn him into such a state? From this, he realized that Miao Yi still had many secrets that he didn't know about.
Hai Pingxin was also a little afraid of this elusive old man. Back in the City Guard Palace, he would often follow behind Miao Yi quietly like a haunting ghost. Whenever Miao Yi appeared, he would appear as well. If Miao Yi disappeared, then he would disappear as well. Furthermore, he didn't even make a single sound as he walked. You wouldn't even know when he would appear behind you.
The first time she saw him, a sinister and hoarse voice suddenly came from behind her. "Milord wants you to go over."
Hai Pingxin abruptly turned around and saw Yan Xiu smiling at her. She was so frightened that she covered her chest with her hands and took a few steps back. Her face was pale and she almost cried. From then on, she was traumatized whenever she saw Yan Xiu again. Moreover, Yan Xiu still kept showing her goodwill.
Yan Xiu didn't like to talk much now. His way of showing goodwill was to smile.
On the other hand, Yang Zhaoqing didn't have much of a reaction. He knew that a living person like Yan Xiu had cultivated the Yin Soul Yang Art. When Yan Xiu became like this, he only felt sympathy for him. He wasn't afraid at all. Now, he had become Miao Yi's errand boy. Yan Xiu didn't touch anything anymore. Only when there was really no one around would Miao Yi ask Yan Xiu to show himself.
The commanders of the four districts soon arrived and received the decree. After receiving the decree, they quickly left.
"You're so stupid. If you twist your waist, do you still want to become famous and marry into a good family? If you can't even twist your waist, how are you going to survive in this line of work? Stick up your butt and stick out your chest. That's right. Stick out your chest and bend your waist. You have to bend like a bow. "
In the Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant, more than a dozen stunning beauties were rehearsing in the training hall. Mother Xu took out a feather duster and poked the dancing crowd here and there. She patted the buttocks of one and touched the breasts of another as she berated them incessantly.
She had no choice. The Courtesan Queen of Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant had been ruined by Commander Xu. She could only select a new batch of beauties to train. She was prepared to pick one or two of the most outstanding ones and push them out to create a second Xue Linglong.
With a loud smack, Madam Xu fiercely smacked a certain girl's butt. She angrily said, "Why are you sticking up like that? Are you trying to sell it? You're a performer, not a prostitute. In this line of work, if your body is ruined by men, it's worthless. You have to whet men's appetites to be valuable. If you want to sell it for a good price, you have to have the capital! "
She looked around and continued, "Don't blame me for being ruthless. Since you've entered this line of work, you have to endure hardships. If you don't endure hardships, you won't be able to make a name for yourself. If you want to have a good career in the future, you have to endure hardships now. If you can't endure hardships, you'll be reduced to a supporting role and your lives will be over. The glory of this line of work doesn't lie in supporting roles. When the time comes, don't blame me for sending you out to do some favors. Now that you've suffered hardships, you'll be grateful to me. If you can't make a name for yourself, it's useless to hate me. Without capital, you don't even have the right to take revenge! "
When the time comes, don't blame me for sending you out as a favor. The reason why she was so strict with the newcomers was because Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant was in dire straits. Without Xue Linglong to hold the fort, Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant's business had plummeted. Originally, they supported Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant because of Xue Linglong. Even if they lowered the price now, they might not hire Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant's team.
Currently, the most popular person in the industry was Fei Hong from Elegant Crown Pavilion. No one knew how Elegant Crown Pavilion managed to get Fei Hong a godmother with a powerful background. Fei Hong had been popular all the way until now, but no one dared to take her virginity. As a result, the other companies were unable to raise their heads.
Madam Xu was not convinced. She wanted to train another Xue Linglong to fight against Fei Hong. As long as she could train another famous actress, she would still be able to hold the fort with Xue Linglong's support. Xue Linglong and Huangfu Jun. Their relationship was very good. Furthermore, they had the official power of Tianjie in charge of this area.
That was all Xue Linglong could do for Madam Xu. Some things were still taboo for Xu Tangran. He had already paid to redeem Xue Linglong and married her, becoming his legal wife. He did not want Xue Linglong to have any dealings with Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant. Xue Linglong understood. However, without Madam Xu, she would not be where she was today. She gave all her savings over the years to Madam Xu, and the rest could only be taken care of in secret. She wanted to be a decent woman, and it was indeed inappropriate for her to have dealings with Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant.
"Hurry! Hurry … "
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside. Madam Xu, who was guiding the people around, was startled. She put down the feather duster and left the training hall. She went to the lobby outside and asked as she walked towards the door, "What happened?"
The worker who was looking around at the door ran over. "I don't know! The Heavenly Court's people seem to be chasing away the customers from Tianjie. "
"Chasing away the customers? What's going on? "Madam Xu took off the handkerchief from her clothes and shook it. She walked out of the door and looked around curiously.
A row of heavenly soldiers appeared on the street, chasing away the customers on the street towards the city gate. The merchants and travelers frowned and bustled past the entrance of Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant.
All of a sudden, a deputy general yelled, "Don't waste time! Lord Tianyuan is catching the escaped bandits. All non-merchants and people should leave the Sky Street immediately. Otherwise, they will be treated as bandits."
A traveler shouted, "General, we are not bandits!"
The deputy general shouted, "How do I know if you are a bandit or not? It won't be too late to say if you're a gangster after the investigation is done. Again?? Braised Emu Throw Hard Push? An A Prize Award Accepting Donations? Aunt? Fooling around? Mei Yun Jian Eye Leg Death Oxime? The official end of a slug, the vulgar mill stop
Seeing that the deputy general had walked all the way to the Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant, Mrs. Xu immediately went forward and pulled him back. She secretly transmitted her voice to him, "General Peng, what happened?"
Everyone in the Xicheng District knew about the relationship between Mrs. Xu and Commander Xu. The deputy general didn't dare to offend her and replied, "How would I know? The higher-ups told us to do this, so we have no choice but to obey. If you really want to know the reason, you should ask Lord Commander. "With that said, he continued forward.
After standing at the entrance and watching the bustling scene for a long time, the street in front of him was empty enough for a horse to gallop on. There was not even a shadow of a customer in sight. There were also groups of celestial soldiers and celestial generals patrolling the streets for inspection.
The merchants on both sides of the street poked their heads out to look around. They looked at each other, but not a single customer could be seen. Since the establishment of Sky Street, this had never happened before.
The shop assistant who ran around to ask around came back and reported to Mrs. Xu, "All gone! All the customers in Sky Street have been chased out of Sky Street. Not a single one is left. Everyone has been chased out of the four city gates for inspection. "
Mrs. Xu and Spiritual Master Yu Xu of the Morality Sundry Shop next door looked at each other. In the next moment, almost all the merchants immediately ran towards the four city gates to see what was going on.
Outside the city, there was a huge crowd. Those who had a guilty conscience naturally didn't dare to be interrogated and slipped away. Inside the city, there was a group of merchants who stretched their heads out to observe. At the city gates, there were celestial soldiers and celestial generals stationed to stop people from entering and leaving.
"Heavenly Official, I'm really not a bandit."
"If you're not a bandit, then what are you?"
"I'm a disciple of the Fuling Sect. This is my identity jade archive. I'm here on orders from my sect to purchase goods. The sect has set a time limit for me to return. Heavenly Official, please let me in. I'll leave immediately after I buy the goods. "
"No problem. Search your body first. After that, show me your proof. As long as you can prove that you have nothing to do with the bandits, I'll let you in."
"I … How can I prove it?"
"If you can't prove it, then what are you yelling about? What right do you have to say that you have nothing to do with the bandits? Next … "
This was the conversation between the celestial soldiers and celestial generals and the travelers who wanted to enter the city.
Inside the city, the merchants who had pricked up their ears to watch the commotion looked at each other speechlessly. Mrs. Xu turned to look at Spiritual Master Yu Xu at the side with a creepy expression. She transmitted her voice to him, "Damn it! What's that Guardian Palace up to this time? Don't tell me he's up to something again? "
Xu Tangran sat on the city gate tower, enjoying the delicacies, occasionally taking a sip of fine wine, and occasionally looking at the crowd inside and outside the city to have a good time.
PS: I'm shocked to learn that my long-time supporter, Wild Poppy, has gotten a daughter and has mixed into the ranks of diapers. I have nothing to repay you with. I'm not asking for monthly votes, but I hope that all of you who support me will flood the book review and comment section with congratulations and blessings! (The more congratulations and blessings, the more I'll add!)
