The Invincible Sixth Prince

In the evening, Yun Zheng and his friends had dinner early and went to Yuelai Inn.

When they arrived at Yuelai Inn, they found that it was already crowded. Although there was a cold wind outside, there were still many people watching the fun at the door of Yuelai Inn.

However, the place was already packed with people and many people were kept outside.

Fortunately, Zhang Xu was kind enough to provide free ginger soup to those who couldn't get in to warm themselves up. There were also several large iron stoves burning honeycomb coal at the door so that these people could keep warm.

When we got inside the inn, we saw a completely different scene.

Various lanterns were hung everywhere in the inn, and a temporary platform was set up in the middle of the first floor.

There were already some women on the stage performing dances to liven up the atmosphere.

Zhang Xu took them directly to the second floor. The corridor on the second floor was facing the gate, which was the seat Zhang Xu arranged for them.

The room behind them is also arranged for them. They can take a short rest in the room, or let the children play in the room.

When they came over, Mingyue also came with her child.

Seeing that these children couldn't sit still, Yun Zheng asked them to go to the room to play.

Just as they were about to sit down, Ye Zi called out to Jia Yao who was about to sit below her.

"You sit here."

Jia Yao pointed to the position to Yun Zheng’s right.

"I'll just sit here."

Jia Yao blinked and smiled, "I've been pestering him for the whole afternoon, I have to let you..."

"That's not a thing!"

Ye Zi smiled sweetly, "You are the concubine of the Yitong Zhengfei. Although we don't care about these things at home, we still have to pay attention to the rules of respect and inferiority in such occasions."

According to the rules, among the five of them, Shen Luoyan, as the main wife, must have the highest status.

The second is Jia Yao, the concubine of the Queen Yitong.

Next are her and Miaoyin, the two concubines with official titles.

Finally, there is Xin Sheng, who has not yet been officially named.

"Correct!"

Madam Shen nodded and smiled, "Don't let people say that the people in the palace don't know the etiquette of respect and inferiority."

Jia Yao had no choice but to sit down on Yun Zheng’s right.

As soon as they sat down according to the order of importance, Miaoyin behind them gently poked Yun Zheng.

Yun Zheng turned around in confusion, but Miaoyin gave him a pouty smile.

Following Miaoyin's gaze, I saw a few people standing at the railing opposite them.

It was Wu Qingyang and Lan who drew them!

When Yun Zheng looked over, Lan Hua was also looking at them.

When their eyes met, Yun Zheng nodded and smiled at Lan Hua as a greeting.

Lan Hua also smiled back.

Yun Zheng turned around and waved to Shen Kuan who had just returned to Shuofang a few days ago, "Go ask them if they want to come over and sit with you. If they don't want to, don't force them."

Shen Kuan took the order and immediately walked towards Wu Qingyang and the others.

Soon, Wu Qingyang and the other three followed Shen Kuan over.

They were about to salute, but Yun Zheng raised his hand to stop them, "No need to be polite! We just happened to meet, and asked everyone to come over and sit down."

As he spoke, Yun Zheng ordered someone to add three more stools for them.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Several people answered in unison.

Yun Zheng first introduced them to a few people they had never met before, then pointed at Zhang Xu and Lan Hua and said, "This is the other owner of the black shop you mentioned, Zhang Xu."

Speaking of this, Lan Hua's face suddenly turned red.

"Black shop?"

Zhang Xu was confused, "Your Highness, when did I open a black shop?"

Yun Zheng laughed, and then told Zhang Xu about what happened to Lan Hua and the others at Yuelai Inn in Le'an.

After hearing Yun Zheng's words, Zhang Xu couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"I said, you guys are too dark, aren't you?"

Jia Yao looked at the two of them speechlessly, "It's just a small amount of silver to stay in an inn, but you spent several hundred taels of silver to buy your things?"

Not to mention Lan Hua, even she felt that Yun Zheng and Zhang Xu were running a shady shop.

No wonder Yun Zheng never lacks military funds!

She even suspected that Yun Zheng's military expenses were all earned with dirty tricks.

"Isn't this a matter of one willing to fight and the other willing to be beaten?"

Yunzheng smiled.

They don't force people to buy things for the room, right?

He had a friend in his previous life. A meal cost only 20 or 30 yuan, but a cup of tea would cost 998 yuan, and sometimes even 2,000 or 3,000 yuan. That's called a shady shop!

They chatted and laughed for a while, and then with the sound of a gong, the Lantern Festival officially began.

The owner of Yuelai Inn came on stage and first said a bunch of meaningless words, then announced the rules and prizes for guessing riddles, and asked people to move all the prizes to the stage.

Those prizes were basically the high-end goods they sold in the inn.

The shopkeeper seemed to be a shrewd man. He introduced the prizes to everyone one by one, praising them so highly that even Yun Zheng blushed.

After that, the formal lantern riddle guessing session begins.

"Sitting facing south, facing north, it is sad when it is worried and happy when it is happy! Guess an object! The first person to guess it will get a toothbrush and tooth powder."

The shopkeeper read out the riddles and prizes aloud, and Yun Zheng and the others began to think about them.

"Bronze mirror!"

Ye Zi and Lan Hua spoke almost at the same time.

Bronze mirror?

Everyone suddenly realized.

Isn’t it just a bronze mirror?

"Louder your voice."

Shen Luoyan looked at Lan Hua with a smile on her face, "Your voice is too soft, the people downstairs can't hear it."

Lan Hua shook her head gently, "Madam Zi guessed it first."

"No, no." Ye Zi shook her head and smiled, "You guessed it first."

"Bronze mirror!"

Just as the two of them were trying to be polite to each other, someone downstairs had already guessed the answer.

"Yes, it's the bronze mirror!"

The shopkeeper nodded and smiled, then told the waiter on one side: "Send the prize to that young man!"

Yun Zheng smiled at Lan Hua and Ye Zi, "Look, you two are being so polite to each other, so no one has a share of these, right? Be more active next time."

The two girls smiled but said nothing more.

"He lives in a dark corner, wears a brown robe, a black iron hat, and fights like a hero..."

At this time, the shopkeeper began to read new riddles.

Listening to the shopkeeper's riddles, everyone's eyes fell on Yun Zheng and Jia Yao at the same time.

Yun Zheng was speechless, "Why are you looking at us? Didn't you hear what the shopkeeper said? This is a game of guessing!"

"It's crickets!" Zhang Xu chuckled, "You've never played cricket fighting before, right?"

After hearing what Zhang Xu said, everyone finally reacted.

Isn’t it just a cricket?

However, none of them had ever played cricket fighting, so they couldn't guess the answer for the time being. Only Zhang Xu, a former dandy, guessed it right at once.

Zhang Xu looked at everyone proudly, but did not give an answer.

However, someone soon guessed the answer.

The lantern riddle guessing activity continues.

Because the prizes were so generous, everyone was very enthusiastic.

During this time, the shopkeeper also gave out a few simple riddles and a few preserved eggs.

"Ten against ten, sun against moon, guess a word! The first person to guess correctly will receive a top-grade wolf-hair brush!"

Soon, the shopkeeper came up with a new riddle.

This riddle seems a bit difficult.

Everyone around Yun Zheng was guessing, but they had not figured out the answer.

Just when everyone was concentrating on thinking about the riddles, Shen Kuan suddenly yelled.

"There are assassins!"

While yelling, Shen Kuan rushed to Yun Zheng in one step...
