Mu Yunjin came to the street market alone, wondering if it was because of the preconceived notions brought to her by the black market, walking on the ordinary street at this time, Mu Yunjin felt that the folk customs on this bustling street were somewhat sluggish.

After finding a small restaurant, Mu Yunjin found a corner and sat down. After ordering a few dishes, she propped her head up and watched the people coming and going on the street.

"Meow~" Just as he sat down, a meow came from one side.

Mu Yunjin was startled, and when she turned her head to look, she saw Qiqi was wearing a black robe, and the big brim of the hat covered her cat ears on top of her head.

"Qiqi?" Seeing Qiqi appearing here, Mu Yunjin was a little surprised.

"Yes, it's me." Qiqi sat across from Mu Yunjin, and raised the corners of her lips, "At first, Qiqi thought that there was something wrong with the spirit number in the pavilion, but it was really the master who came."

coming?

Mu Yunjin caught the words in Qiqi's words, raised her eyebrows and looked at Qiqi in front of her, "Here is Huangyu Pavilion?"

"That's right, it's just under Yanxi Pond in the suburbs." Qiqi said.

Mu Yunjin frowned slightly, the suburbs? Along the stream pool? Is it the place where I was dragged by Chu Li to wash my hands just now?

"The Huangyu Pavilion is under the stream?" Mu Yunjin sighed inwardly.

Qiqi nodded, poured a glass of water, took a sip, and nodded, "Just now a sign was lit in the pavilion, indicating that the master has appeared in Zhangzhou City. Many subordinates want to meet you, the new pavilion master."

"So, Qiqi came here specifically to ask the master if she would like to go to the pavilion with Qiqi to meet other subordinates?"

Mu Yunjin subconsciously shook her head and refused, "No, no, I'm not ready to meet them yet, and I'm here with Chu Li on business today."

After Mu Yunjin finished speaking, she pursed her lips, and said secretly in her heart, how can she be the master of a pavilion with her half-baked appearance, if she disappoints those subordinates who want to see her all the time, it would be bad.

"Then listen to the master first." Qiqi smiled, and at this time Xiao Er brought a few dishes, Qiqi sniffed her nose, and then her eyes lit up, "Wow, there is braised fish."

"Boss, add another pair of bowls and chopsticks."

For the next time, while Mu Yunjin was eating, most of her attention was on Qiqi, who was buried in the fish in front of her.

Looking at the small plates piled up on the side, I heard Qiqi shout again, "Boss, help me prepare another piece of braised fish, one piece of steamed fish, and one piece of sweet and sour fish!"

"Okay!"

A smile overflowed from the corner of Mu Yunjin's lips. Looking at Qiqi with a hat on her head and her raised ears, she teased, "Aside from eating fish, don't cats also eat mice? And you, do you eat mice?" ?”

"Bah." Qiqi immediately spat out a mouthful of fish meat, and looked at Mu Yunjin with a wrinkled face, "Master, I am a cat spirit, half human and half cat, and things like mice are not for humans to eat."

Mu Yunjin covered her mouth and smiled, seeing her bitter face, said jokingly, "Okay, you can continue to eat fish."

...

"I'm so full." Half an hour later, Qiqi sat back on the chair, hiccupped, and gently stroked her stomach.

With a smile in her eyes, Mu Yunjin glanced at the empty dishes on the table, and suddenly thought that Chu Li was still in the courtyard, wondering if he had eaten.

After thinking about it, Mu Yunjin called Xiao Er again, and ordered Xiao Er to prepare some more dishes and take them away.

Looking at this scene, Qiqi shook her head helplessly, "Are all married women like you?"

"Cough..." Mu Yunjin choked on a sip of tea, and seeing Qiqi mentioning Chu Li, she couldn't help thinking, "By the way, the Huayue Tower that I entrusted you to investigate that day, is there any whereabouts?"

"Of course." Qiqi raised her eyebrows, took a sip of water, looked around, and leaned in front of Mu Yunjin, "In the entire Canghua Continent, there is a Huayuelou in one place, and a moonlight house in another place. Flower houses, and they are all brothels."

"Where is it?" Mu Yunjin looked at Qiqi, waiting for the next sentence.

Qiqi smiled, "Huayuelou is located in Xinyao City of Xiyuan Kingdom, and Yuehualou is located in Donglin Country, but I don't know if these two brothels are connected."

Xinyao City...

Mu Yunjin frowned slightly, she had never heard of this city before, and the Huayue Building was not known if it was the one run by Chu Qingqiang.

It should be just a coincidence that it collided with the Moon Flower Tower in Donglin Country.

"Xinyao City, how far is it from here?" Mu Yunjin looked at Qiqi and asked.

"About two hours." Qiqi replied.

After a pause, Qiqi seemed to think of something, and added, "Master, you haven't heard of Shenyao City? The lord of Xinyao City, Qu Xinyao, is a strange woman."

"What kind of strange woman's method?" Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows slightly, but she was a little curious.

"The Xinyao City was originally called Xinjia City, but it was renamed Xinyao City, which is a homophony of Qu Xinyao's name. Qu Xinyao is 21 years old this year. Like the brothers and sisters of the Qin family, he worshiped under the Taoist Qiuye. Brother and sister's senior sister, she has practiced martial arts well."

"Later, when Qu Xinyao was eighteen years old, the present Emperor Ximing, who was visiting on Qiuye Mountain, took a fancy to her and asked her to enter the palace as a concubine. Qu Xinyao would rather die than obey, and joined the imperial guards who Ximing Emperor brought to Qiuye Mountain. Hit it, and guess what happened?"

"With her own strength, she wiped out more than 500 imperial guards, making Emperor Ximing dumbfounded on the spot, and dared not mention the concubine. But Qu Xinyao went on a killing spree in Qiuye Mountain, humiliating his master. , was expelled from the sect on the spot by Taoist Qiuye. Later, it was said that Emperor Ximing really admired Qu Xinyao. Seeing how pitiful she was expelled from the sect, he gave her the city lord of Xinjia City. This Qu Xinyao is also a wayward person. , and renamed Xinjia City to Shenyao City."

"Emperor Ximing turned a blind eye when he saw this. Among the many cities in the Xiyuan Kingdom, Xinyao City, where Qu Xinyao sits, is well-governed and well-managed."

Mu Yunjin nodded knowingly after hearing what Qiqi had said, and she also had some admiration for Qu Xinyao in her heart.

However, hearing that the brothers and sisters of the Qin family were involved just now, Mu Yunjin sighed slightly, "So, they used to be from the same family."

"Yes, but these years, Qu Xinyao seems to hate people from the Qin family. Not long ago, Emperor Ximing invited Qu Xinyao to the Qin family's celebration banquet, but Qu Xinyao refused, and added something..."

Qiqi tilted her head to think for a moment, touched her ears, and then remembered after a while, and exclaimed, "She said, the celebration banquet of the despicable villain deserves her to attend in person?"

rat……

Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows, pursed her lips and smiled, "This Qu Xinyao is really interesting."

"I also heard all this from Granny Yu who knows everything in the pavilion. Granny Yu also said that Qu Xinyao has some ambiguous relationship with Xu Heyu, the new Mayor of Heyue City!"

...

Unknowingly, more than an hour passed, and Mu Yunjin chatted with Qiqi for a long time before they stopped talking, and after paying the bill, they came out of the restaurant.

Mu Yunjin held several warm meals in her hand, looked at Qiqi beside her, "I'm going back, you should go back early too."

Qiqi nodded, sniffed the food in Mu Yunjin's hand, and smiled at Mu Yunjin, "Thank you, master, for your hospitality today."

Mu Yunjin smiled lightly, and reached out to caress Fu Qiqi's pricked cat ears through the hat, "It's so cute."

"Meow meow meow~" Qiqi called out to Mu Yunjin a few times, then waved her hand and disappeared into the street.

Mu Yunjin shook her head helplessly, and walked back to the courtyard with the food in her hands.

After returning to the courtyard, the gate of the courtyard was still closed. When Mu Yunjin opened the door and entered, she saw Chu Lizheng and Huang Yan sitting in the courtyard playing chess.

Seeing that it was playing chess again, Mu Yunjin took a breath, walked over, and put the food in her hand on the table.

"Eat it while it's hot."

Chu Li glanced at the food that Mu Yunjin had brought back, and was slightly taken aback while holding Bai Zi's hand.

Seeing that Chu Li didn't move for a while, Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows slightly, "Why, it doesn't suit your appetite?"

"No." Chu Li shook his head, picked up the chopsticks, and took a bite of food slowly.

Seeing this, Mu Yunjin smiled, sat down on the chair, and glanced at the halfway chessboard in front of her, "What's so good about playing this chess, Huang Yan has never won it."

"Pfft..." Huang Yan spat out a mouthful of rice and wiped his mouth, "Hey, don't underestimate me, I'm also a good gambler anyway."

"Have you ever won?" Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows, her eyes were somewhat inquisitive.

Seen by Mu Yunjin's slightly deep gaze, Huang Yan felt a little guilty, lowered his eyes, and said in a low voice, "No..."

"That's fine." Mu Yunjin shrugged and poured herself a glass of water. After chatting with Qiqi for a long time, she was really thirsty now.

After drinking a few sips of water, Mu Yunjin thought of the Shenyao City that Qiqi had just mentioned, and couldn't help looking at Chu Li, "Do you have any secret things in Shenyao City?"

Chu Li put down his chopsticks and frowned slightly, "Why do you ask that?"

"Heyue City and Zhangzhou City are not fun, I want to visit Shenyao City." Mu Yunjin said.

Hearing this, Chu Li hummed lightly, and after a long while, an unknown smile crossed the corner of his lips, "Xinyao City is probably even more boring to you."

"Why?" Mu Yunjin frowned slightly, as if she didn't quite understand what Chu Li meant.

"You will know next time." Chu Li said.

Mu Yunjin seemed to understand Chu Li's words, but after hearing what he said next time, she guessed that Chu Li might also have some property or secrets in Shenyao City, and might go to Shenyao City at any time.

After thinking about it, Mu Yunjin smiled happily.

"This is for you." Seeing the smile on Mu Yunjin's face, Chu Li took out a bank note from his sleeve and handed it to Mu Yunjin.

Mu Yunjin reached out to take the bank note, with a wider smile on her face, stuffed it into her arms in satisfaction, and looked at Chu Li with admiration, "Your work efficiency is really fast."

"Hey, hey, I won the money, and I exchanged the bank notes. Can't you be grateful to me?" Huang Yan interrupted from the side.

Upon hearing this, Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows and pointed to Chu Li who was beside her, "You call him son, I am your wife, son wants you to do things for your wife, this is your job."

Huang Yan choked up his words, choked by Mu Yunjin's words, and couldn't think of words to refute for a while.

The look of begging for help was passed to Chu Li, but Chu Li had a slight smile on his brows and eyes, and his gentle gaze passed over Mu Yunjin.

Seeing this, Huang Yan widened his eyes and looked at this scene like a ghost. He and Chu Li have known each other for five years. In the past five years, he has never seen him smile once, and he always looks calm and cold.

It's really a ghost today, to smile so gently at a woman.
