Qianqianjie, kidnap a reborn prince back to the modern era

Chapter 229: Sneaking into the Imperial City

Several minor officials at the city gate had their eyes glued to the three vehicles.

"Not necessarily. Look at the people in your car. Maybe they can really make a big splash."

Qian You raised her chin arrogantly, pretended to stand up, twisted her slender waist and got out of the car, and stretched at the same time, making all the soldiers drool.

"What is this? Do you need to wash your face? How can I use this handkerchief when it's so dirty?"

She walked to the basin, picked up the handkerchief with her slender fingers, and as soon as she let go, it dropped into the basin, splashing away most of the water.

"Is this what you said, that I should bring the girls to your place and have a chance to perform for the Emperor?"

"Mrs. Yue, this is the rule for entering the city, please see..."

Qiao Mu looked at the guard officer somewhat awkwardly, then at Qian You, cooperating with her exaggerated performance.

"What am I looking at? One day I will dance for the Emperor. If I am pleasing to His Majesty, I will break this rule and punish you all to clean toilets and pour night incense."

Qian You arrogantly picked up the handkerchief and wiped it across her face. Her clear and beautiful little face appeared in front of the officers and soldiers with anger, shocking and frightening everyone.

How could such a pure and charming face fail to catch the Emperor's eye?

Even the Jade Emperor would find her pleasing!

If I offend this noble man today, I will be punished to clean the toilet tomorrow!

The young soldiers were howling in their hearts and their faces couldn't stop shaking.

"Girls, get off the car, come here, and wash the faces of these officials. If any of you win the favor of His Majesty in the future, remember their faces."

Qian You threw down the handkerchief, splashing out a large part of the little water.

The girls crowded to get off the bus, some quickly picked up handkerchiefs to wipe their faces, their faces becoming clearer after removing makeup, but they looked disgusted.

"There's no water. How can I clean it? It's so dirty!"

After three or four girls finished wiping, those waiting behind them became impatient.

"Mr. Qiao, Mr. Qiao, forget it, just forget it, take these girls away, we have seen them all, we have seen them all."

One of the girls accidentally threw her handkerchief out of the basin after wiping her face. The wet handkerchief mixed with dust made the young soldiers feel that they had disrespected these beautiful girls.

Qiao Mu frowned, looking at the handkerchief on the ground and the dozen or so girls behind him who had not yet wiped their faces. Listening to their complaints and impatient tone, he apologized to the officers and soldiers awkwardly, and signaled with his eyes for his attendants to hand over a large purse.

"I'm sorry, everyone. I'll buy you some wine this afternoon."

The officers and soldiers smiled apologetically and watched the charming girls get on the bus one by one.

The curtains were lowered, the wheels were rolling, and some of the soldiers still had saliva hanging from the corners of their mouths.

The carriage drove through the blocks of Lidu. Qi Luobai, dressed as a dancer, looked through the curtains at the prosperous scene which was different from that outside the city. It seemed as if the experience of hanging out with refugees a few days ago was a dream. For a moment, he didn't know whether he was awake or still in a dream.

The car stopped at the back door of a large house, and everyone got out and quickly slipped in.

Lin Qi was the rear guard and looked around to see that there was no one around, so he ordered his men to ride their horses and continue on their way.

The yard covers a large area and this place is located at a side door of the back garden.

The vegetation in the garden is lush, without any of the abruptness of the early spring in the north when the weather is still cold. All kinds of grasses and flowers are lush and green, competing for beauty.

It was also Qian You's first time to come to Nanqi. She couldn't help but take a few more glances at the flowers and plants. There were also many rare medicinal herbs planted there in the north. She smiled with great satisfaction.

"This is the courtyard that my second uncle bought when he came here. It's a large house with five entrances and five exits. There's another one across the street."

"Are all these people ours?"

"That's right, they are all Qianmai Palace's own people. Some came from Dongcang, and some are local. They have joined our Qianmai Palace for more than a year."

A man who looked like a butler walked quickly from the front yard and hurriedly saluted when he saw Qiao Mu.

"Butler Bai, take these girls and settle them down first."

"Yes!"

The crowd on the road dispersed, and Qiao Mu took Qian You and Qi Luobai to a courtyard with "Yueming Pavilion" written on the lintel.

"Your Highness, this courtyard is the most secluded. On the left is Qianyou's residence, and on the right is my residence. Please change your clothes here first, and then we will discuss the details."

At this point, Qiao Mu consciously changed the way he addressed Qi Luobai, but his words and actions remained the same as before, without any flattery.

"Okay, thank you!"

Qi Luobai was feeling very uncomfortable in his dancer's outfit, so he walked into the house without any more courtesy, and his two bodyguards quickly followed him.

In Dongcang, after he recovered from his illness, Qian You selected two personal attendants for him from among the many Dark Hall assassins.

The two were once refugees and orphans, and were adopted by Qianmai Palace. They were alone and had no worries.

Fourteen years older, he looks simple and honest, but he is actually smart and capable.

Sixteen is about the same age as him, with a quick mind and enthusiastic spirit.

The two of them were very good at martial arts, and especially after a few months of getting along with each other, the three of them had already developed a tacit understanding among friends.

Yes, what Qianyou said was not a master-servant relationship, but a tacit understanding between friends.

He consulted the two and helped them come up with a new name.

Fourteen is called the seasonal wind, and sixteen is called the seasonal rain.

The two of them liked their new names very much and often showed off to their friends, which made Qian You laugh and hold his forehead.

She considers herself a bad namer.

The children in Qianmai Palace who originally had no names were automatically numbered according to the order of their entry in that year.

At first, Qi Luobai needed someone to take care of his food, clothing, housing and transportation, and the two of them felt a little uncomfortable.

In Qianmai Palace, even the Palace Master and the Young Master were self-reliant. They were somewhat puzzled by a person who had no ability to survive.

As time went by, they witnessed with their own eyes a high and mighty prince seriously learning how to dress, tie his hair, and even making his own bed and room, trying hard to integrate into the habits of the Qianmai Palace, and they were somewhat moved.

The journey to Nanqi was full of ups and downs. He had eaten moldy food, drank water with everyone by the stream, and lived in a tile hut among the refugees. The crown prince, who was usually pampered, had no complaints and his aura became more and more calm, which made the two of them admire him.

"Shi Yu, help me find out what the latest news is about Yang Chengen, the young master of the Taifu family, as well as Wu Xiwen, the eldest grandson of the Zuo Xiang family, and Lu Wenhao, the eldest grandson of the Duke of Lu. What is the current situation of these families? Especially after the new emperor ascended the throne, what are the attitudes of these families?"

"Okay, I'll make a note of that."

"Also, there is a Huang's Money House on Yongle Street. The owner's surname is Huang and he is over 40 years old. Please ask about the current situation of this shop and this owner. Please be careful and keep a low profile when asking about these things."

Qi Luobai changed his clothes, washed off his makeup, and used the makeup techniques Qian You taught him to beautify his appearance. He looked ordinary and slightly handsome, wearing an indigo brocade robe, looking like the big brother next door. He had an aura that he could control freely.

After the incident with Weiyuan Hou, and the tribulation-like experiences along the way, he grew up quickly, learned the wickedness of human nature, and also learned how to disguise himself.

Of course, when facing Qian You, he never hides his inner feelings.
