One day later, without Xi Wanya knowing, the empress brought Qing Yuan and Hong Luan to Longshou City.
With the empress's skills, she naturally wouldn't be discovered if she wanted to avoid other people.
"It is said that this is a dragon vein that runs through the entire Tianjing Basin. The mouth of the dragon faces north, so it is said that Tianjing Basin can conquer the world," the empress said as she looked at Longshou City, which was not far away.
Of course, she didn't believe in such things.
Conquer the world? Who dares to touch my world?
A group of people who were locked up here were still delusional.
The empress was still dressed in red, and Qing Yuan and Hong Luan were dressed in green. The three of them standing on the road were extremely eye-catching.
Qing Yuan and Hong Luan carried a small bag on their backs that contained many important things, such as the empress's Erguotou …
There was also a change of clothes.
The three of them arrived at the city gate and saw a long queue in front of them.
"Go and ask what's going on," the empress said.
Qing Yuan went forward for a while and returned, "Your … Mistress, what is the entrance fee?"
The empress frowned. Tianjing Basin was under her rule, so why didn't she know about the entrance fee?
After thinking for a while, she didn't think too much about it. This would naturally be rectified in the future.
"Did you bring money?"
Qing Yuan, "…"
Hong Luan, "…"
The two of them were at a loss. They had prepared a lot of things before coming, but they only thought about what the empress needed. They were afraid that the empress wouldn't like the food, so they packed some spices and forgot about the most important thing — money.
After all, there was no place in the palace where money was needed. Money was something that was too distant for them.
"Your … Mistress, please forgive us. We forgot about the money. Shall we go back first? We will come back tomorrow after we withdraw the money, "the two of them whispered nervously.
The empress raised her eyebrows. She never thought about these things when she went out with Ren Baqian. If she didn't see the entrance fee at the city gate, she wouldn't even remember to use money.
What would Ren Baqian do if he encountered such a situation? The empress recalled Ren Baqian's style and then relaxed her frown.
"Forget it, let's use another method."
"What method?"
"Let's think of a way to enter the city first, then find a rich man and rob him." The empress believed that if Ren Baqian was here, he would definitely use this method.
"Ah?" Both of them were stunned. "Young miss, this …"
Her Majesty is going to rob money? If others knew about this, the two of them would definitely be cursed to death.
"That's settled then. Let's go to another place to enter the city." The empress gestured for the two of them to pass through the fields near the city and find a remote place. Carrying one of them in each hand, they crossed a few hundred meters in a few seconds, crossed the city wall, and landed in the city.
The empress moved so quickly that the patrolling soldiers on the city wall didn't notice her at all.
The three of them entered the city, passed through the alleys, and blended into the crowd. They looked around with great interest. Everything was new to them.
The empress was still fine, but Qing Yuan and Hong Luan were elated. Their attention had long been attracted by their surroundings, and they had completely forgotten that Her Majesty was preparing to rob them.
However, even among the crowd, the three of them were extremely eye-catching.
On one hand, it was because of their appearances, especially the empress. On the other hand, it was because of their attire, especially the empress …
The empress's bright red attire, coupled with her appearance, made it impossible for people not to notice her.
The three of them were looking around, and the people around them were looking at them.
The empress quickly discovered this situation, but she didn't care. She didn't need to care about other people's opinions.
In fact, there were many men who wanted to strike up a conversation. There were many merchants in Longshou City, and there were also many rich people. Naturally, there were many people who had a stomach full of thoughts.
However, the empress's aura was too strong, and many people began to feel guilty after looking at her. As a result, the three of them actually didn't encounter any trouble.
"Young miss, the men are also wearing skirts …"
"Young miss, look, that's a bone grinder. There are even bone knives there. I have never seen such a thing before …"
Qing Yuan and Hong Luan were both excited. The empress looked around while thinking about how to find Ren Baqian. That guy shouldn't be in Longshou City now, right? She didn't know where he had gone.
The empress felt that it was very important to find Ren Baqian. Otherwise, there would only be two idiots by her side who knew nothing. With that guy around, at least she wouldn't have to think about robbing people.
However, Tianjing Basin wasn't big, but it wasn't small either. There were more than 10 million people here, and it was really too difficult to find someone without a clue.
The three of them walked around the city for half a day. After the initial novelty had passed, Qing Yuan and Hong Luan finally quietened down.
The most important thing was that the two of them were starting to get hungry. The three of them had only eaten in the morning, and it was almost evening now.
However, they didn't even bring any money with them, and they were too ashamed to tell the empress that they were already hungry.
The empress heard their stomachs rumbling, but wasn't moved.
After walking around the city for half a round, she had a rough idea.
Generally speaking, the bigger the courtyard, the richer it was.
After looking around for a long time, there was one courtyard that was the largest. It was located in the northern part of Longshou City, and there weren't any buildings around it. This courtyard was the only one that occupied an area of more than ten acres. There were two stone sculptures of a saber-toothed tiger at the entrance, and there were also a few guards there.
If she guessed correctly, this was probably the residence of the warlord of Longshou City.
After guessing that it was the residence of the warlord, the empress confirmed her target. With her status, she naturally wouldn't rob an ordinary person.
The warlord of Longshou City was a good target.
The empress didn't wait until nightfall. After walking around with the two of them, she headed straight for the residence of the warlord.
There were a few guards at the entrance of the residence. When they saw a lady dressed in red walking toward the residence with two ladies dressed in green, their eyes lit up.
"Judging by their age, could it be that the warlord is looking for a love debt that he incurred outside?" The guards secretly guessed and went forward to stop the three of them.
"This is the residence of the warlord. If there's nothing else, please leave immediately."
Although the lady dressed in red had an extraordinary aura, the gate of the prime minister was a rank seven official. As the guards of the warlord's residence, they didn't mind seeing all kinds of extraordinary people.
"Ask the warlord to come out and see me … Forget it, I'll look for him myself," the empress said faintly without even looking at them.
"Presumptuous! Who are you? "The four guards were furious when they heard what the lady in red said.
However, just as her hand reached for the hilt of her saber, the empress's figure flashed. Then, she walked in as if nothing had happened.
Qing Yuan and Hong Luan looked at each other and hurriedly followed.
When the three of them entered the courtyard, the guards at the entrance swayed and fell to the ground one after another.
After the three of them entered the courtyard, no one stopped them.
Although the three of them walked around the residence without anyone leading them, others didn't know where they came from. Especially since they were three young ladies, they thought that they were the warlord's guests.
After all, in Longshou City, there had never been a case of someone knocking down a guard and barging in like this. Furthermore, the three of them were too indifferent and walked leisurely as if they were in their own home.
In fact, Qing Yuan and Hong Luan were a little nervous. However, at the same time, they were a little excited. Robbery was something they had only heard about in stories. They didn't expect to be able to do it themselves.
"Where's the warlord?" The empress walked through two courtyards, grabbed a servant from the side, and asked.
"Sir is in the guest hall …" The servant answered subconsciously when he heard the empress's cold voice.
"Lead the way."
"Yes …" The servant thought to himself. He didn't know where this big shot came from, but he was actually more dignified than the warlord.
When the empress followed the servant inside, someone finally discovered that the guard outside had been knocked out, and the front courtyard immediately became noisy.
Then, someone thought of the three ladies they had just seen and sent someone inside to report while searching the residence.
At this time, the empress had already arrived at the courtyard where the guest hall was located. She saw a room in front of her with four doors open, and she could see a few people sitting in the room talking.
There were two men sitting at the top, and three people sitting at the bottom of the table.
"Warlord Xun, I heard that someone from the Yun Nation is here? A man at the top asked.
"Mister Fang, you are quite well-informed," a man in his fifties with a long beard replied with a smile on his face.
In fact, he had just received this news. He knew that someone from the Yun Nation was passing through Longshou City, but he didn't know about it. This made him feel that his subordinates were useless.
"Warlord Xun, do you know anything about their purpose?" the man called Mister Fang asked.
Warlord Xun stroked his long beard. He couldn't possibly say that he hadn't seen them before, right? He only found out about such a person passing through ten days after they left. As a warlord, he was afraid that he would be looked down upon if he didn't even know that someone like that had passed through his own city.
Following which, he raised his head and saw a lady in red leading two ladies in green toward him under the guidance of a servant. He immediately frowned.
Who was this person? Why didn't anyone inform him?
When the empress walked into the room, everyone looked at her with amazement in their eyes.
The empress was silent for a moment. She thought about the excuse she had prepared and felt that there shouldn't be any problem. She said coldly, "Robbery! Hand over the money. "
…
Everyone was immediately petrified!
