My wife is not a demon

Miss Xia obviously didn't expect Chen Mu to bring her here.

Compared with the last temple fair, which was full of prosperity and beauty, the chaotic scene of this small city really made her a little uncomfortable.

After all, she planned to chat with Chen Mu about state affairs in a quiet teahouse.

It's a pity that the other party has no such plan.

"Miss Xia should be eating at this kind of stall for the first time."

Taking the porcelain bowl from the stall owner, Chen Mu handed the woman a bowl of bean curd made of beef soup.

The crisp, amber-like caramel color and a few smears of milky bean curd brains aroused the woman's interest, but she didn't move her chopsticks.

After hearing Chen Mu's question, Miss Xia nodded slightly: "Yes."

Seeing that the other party didn't intend to eat, Chen Mu smiled and said, "Try it, it's definitely different from the one in your house. I'm not talking about the taste, but the atmosphere."

After much entanglement in her heart, Miss Xia finally picked up the spoon, slightly parted her red lips, and took a sip.

The taste is far worse than the delicacies in the palace.

But as Chen Mu said, in the process of eating, the body and mind are enveloped by a strange atmosphere, which is very fresh and interesting.

"May I ask, since Miss Xia is not from the capital city, then..."

"Dongzhou City."

the woman replied.

Dongzhou?

Chen Mu was a little surprised.

In the Dayan Dynasty, Dongzhou was considered a relatively complicated area.

On the surface, Dongzhou City looks like a prosperous and prosperous city, which is no worse than the capital city, but there are many sins and dirt hidden under the gorgeous coat.

Especially in the middle of the night, it becomes more and more obvious.

Thieves who commit crimes frequently, fugitives who wander and lurk, flower pickers, thugs, gangs engaged in crimes...

Taverns, casinos, and brothels are all all night long, full of neon singing and dancing.

Simple folk.

Just like the legendary Gotham City.

Although the government has organized large-scale suppression many times, the results have been minimal, and the internal relationships are intricate and contain a lot.

In particular, it is also the location of the main altar of the Tiandihui.

Chen Mu couldn't help but look at the woman more, and said: "To be honest, although the law and order in the capital is much better than that in Dongzhou, you still have to pay attention to safety when you are a young lady wandering out alone."

Miss Xia pursed her pink lips and smiled slightly: "Well, thank you Mr. Chen for your concern."

While stirring the tofu nao in the bowl with a spoon, she looked at Chen Mu's handsome profile and suddenly asked, "Young Master Chen, if the academy follows the reform method you mentioned last time—"

"Oh, this little lady is so beautiful."

Just as the woman was halfway out of her mouth, a frivolous and frivolous voice suddenly came.

Miss Xia frowned and turned her head to look.

But he saw a well-built young master from a rich family came to the stall with a few attendants, those mung bean-sized eyes looked at Miss Xia with lewdness.

Chen Mu was also stunned by this scene.

Strange.

After coming to the capital for so long, it was the first time that he actually encountered a rich young man who came forward to tease him.

I brought my wife Meng Yanqing and the others before, but I have never met them before.

But it was because Chen Mu didn't wear official clothes today, but just casually wore a long gown made by a lady, looking more like a scholar, so he couldn't deter the opponent.

In addition, the people who come to this place to eat are ordinary people, giving people the illusion that they are superior.

"Little lady, what's so delicious about this stuff? It's better to go home with my young master and let you taste all kinds of delicacies than to follow poor scholars."

The fat young master chuckled, looking at Miss Xia's jade-like skin, swallowing his saliva.

This skin is so tender.

After finishing speaking, he will go forward and sit beside Miss Xia.

But the woman's expression was calm at this time, without any panic, but her eyes were faintly stained with indifference and coldness.

At this moment, a cold drink came from a distance.

"stop!"

I saw a man walking out of the crowd.

The man was only about twenty, with handsome features and no beard, even the green residue on his lips and chin was shaved very clean, and he had a rather elegant demeanor.

Especially in a blue and white light shirt, it looks even more elegant.

I saw him holding a folding fan, pointing at the rich young master and a few dog-legged followers, and said coldly: "In broad daylight, is there any law for molesting good women!"

"What kind of green onion are you! Here, Lao Tzu is Wang Fa!"

The rich young master sneered.

The man's eyes were like knives, and a cold light burst out: "What a breath, I, Zhu Yiqun, are here today, so I don't want to touch a hair of this girl!"

"it is good!"

Suddenly, there was a burst of applause from the surrounding crowd.

Several people applauded.

"This Mr. Zhu is a chivalrous man, he should teach these rubbish a lesson!"

"It's too much, bullying a girl in broad daylight, if this Mr. Zhu didn't take action, I'm afraid this girl... Sigh, I dare not think about it."

"This girl is so lucky to have met such a chivalrous person."
