After I disguised myself as a man, I became everyone's white moonlight

Chu Xi rarely smiles sincerely, but Rong Qingzhu's performance really made her smile unconsciously.

Tang Yuhuai also tutted his tongue to show his honest attitude towards Rong Qingzhu's answer, "Life is long, and you have to experience new things so that you won't feel bored."

"It's settled. When we arrive in Beijing tomorrow, I'll take you to see it in the evening." Tang Yuhuai felt that the two of them really didn't live like people of the same age.

Chu Xi looked doubtful, "..." Going to a brothel, it seems like you don't need someone to take you there, right?

After Zhou Yichen finished explaining everything, when he came over, the three of them immediately fell silent, with an unprecedented tacit understanding, like students in class who were afraid of being caught by the teacher.

"What are you talking about?" Zhou Yichen looked curious.

"We're talking about these assassins." Tang Yuhuai was the first to step forward and change the subject.

Zhou Yichen realized that they might not be telling the truth, but out of trust in Chu Qibai, he did not delve into it. Even if he wanted to talk about it, he thought it would be harmless.

It was not until later that His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan learned about this matter and regretted it so much that he wanted to drown Tang Yuhuai, who came up with the idea.

The three groups of assassins were dealt with. They entered the capital city gate at 3:15 p.m. on the same day. From the moment they entered the main street, people on both sides came to welcome them back to the city, watching and cheering.

It was not difficult to tell from the happy expressions on their faces that the news that the disaster in Yunzhou had been alleviated had already spread back to the capital.

The ladies from prominent families who had come out today to stay in the private rooms on the second floor of the restaurants near the main street simply pushed open a gap and looked at the situation outside through the gap.

Of course, there are also bolder ones who simply push the window open and stand at the window.

The restrictions on women in the Great Zhou Kingdom were not too strict. Women could go out on the streets and do business, and there would not be too much gossip if they showed up in public.

Except for a few families that have strict family rules.

There is also the custom of throwing flowers during parades. This custom is even more prevalent in the capital, which is located at the feet of the emperor.

Those who entered the capital were the Prince of Yan, the son of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, the son of the Prime Minister, and General Tang. Each of them was a young talent and was the ideal husband that the girls of this generation most wanted to marry.

The most popular one should be the distinguished Prince of Yan, but the Prince of Yan has never been favored by His Majesty, and the possibility of him ascending the throne is too low. He may also be assassinated by other princes.

Therefore, among the four men, many women threw flowers to Prince Yan, but not many of them dared to marry him.

As the only heir of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, Prince Chu was granted the title of Crown Prince at birth and holds a noble status. This time, he followed Prince Yan out of the capital to Yunzhou to quell the disaster, eliminate mountain bandits, and rescue the princess. Each and every one of them counts as a merit.

She is equally popular, but...she has always been coveted by the princess. Who dares to compete with the royal family for her?

No one dared to compete with the royal family for the person, unless the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery had found a satisfactory candidate for a daughter-in-law.

A month ago, three cousins ​​of Prince Chu arrived at the Marquis' Mansion one after another.

Although Madam Yun claimed that she was worried about her son and was very anxious, she specially brought several nieces to accompany her.

But having said that, everyone felt that it was just an excuse.

With three unmarried nieces being brought in, and Prince Chu being of a suitable age to marry, who would believe Yun if he said she had no ulterior motives?

There were also quite a few flowers thrown at Chu Xi, and she caught a few of them, because if she didn't catch them, they would hit her in the face.

She raised her beautiful face, which was difficult to tell whether she was male or female, and her eyes casually swept across the second and third floors of the restaurants on both sides of the street, and saw many young women standing there.

Of course, the former two are quite popular, but no one dares to think about them. The latter two, Rong Qingzhu and Tang Yuhuai, are the most popular among the four.

Rong Qingzhu usually had the habit of dressing properly, and many of the flowers fell down and hit his hair and collar, making him a little flustered.

Tang Yuhuai was laughing happily beside him, still calling Chu Xi's name, "Qibai, Qibai, look at Rong Qingzhu, look how messed up he is. Fortunately, these women only threw flowers. If they did something else, wouldn't Rong Qingzhu be scared to the point of falling off his horse?"

Chu Xi still had a few flowers in her hand. She turned around and looked at Tang Yuhuai who was laughing heartily, and then looked at Rong Qingzhu who was anxious to take out the flowers on his collar...

These two people are really the sharpest contrast.

The former is the one who rides a horse and leans on a sloping bridge, and will not panic even if there are red sleeves waving on the building, but will just wave in response. The latter... is the Tang Monk who entered the Spider Cave, panicked and confused, and wanted to recite a few more words to no avail.

"Qi Bai, that's right. I thought you were slow to understand, but it turns out you understand beauties better than I do." Tang Yuhuai is a guy...his image is always ruined when he speaks.

Chu Xi was stunned. She didn't understand why Tang Yuhuai suddenly said that. She looked down and saw a handkerchief with a word embroidered on it that had quietly fallen on her arm.

She took the handkerchief and was about to ask who the owner was, or ask someone to... burn it.

I saw a woman on the upper floor in the distance with blushing cheeks looking at the handkerchief in her hand, hesitant to speak. It seemed that she wanted to say something, but it was a bit far away and it was difficult to say.

Chu Xi realized that it might belong to that woman, so he handed the handkerchief to Chu Er next to him without saying a word, indicating that he should return the handkerchief to the woman.

This little episode was nothing at all. Chu Xi had not been given an official position. She had gone out this time only in the name of helping Zhou Yichen. Naturally, she did not need to go to the palace to report with Zhou Yichen and other officials of high rank.

Chu Xi and Zhou Yichen and their group went their separate ways on Xuanwu Street. Zhou Qingmin opened the curtain of the carriage and stared at Chu Xi with bright eyes, as if she wanted to say something.

But Zhou Yichen noticed Zhou Qingmin's actions, frowned slightly, and dared to speak before she opened her mouth, "Enter the palace."

Zhou Qingmin was awakened by Zhou Yichen's voice. She looked at her third brother and saw that his eyebrows and eyes were as cold as ice. He was completely different from the gentle gentleman in front of Chu Xi. She forgot everything she wanted to say.

"Go." Chu Xi watched them leave, then waved the reins and turned towards the direction of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion.

Only Chu Er followed her, and the fifty-day journey to Yunzhou finally came to an end.

But she knew that this did not mean that everything was over, but was just the beginning of a small chapter.

The dangers in the capital are invisible and intangible. Compared to real assassinations with guns and swords, the capital is only more dangerous and undercurrents are surging.

*

Zhongyong Hou Mansion.

Yun had received a report from her servants who had taken a shortcut back early, and knowing that Qi Bai had already returned to the capital, she went to the door to wait for him.

There were three young women standing next to her, Yun Qingyin was standing on the left of Yun Shi, holding Yun Shi's hand, and wearing a white cloak.

There were two other women standing on Yun's right. They huddled together, chattering and unable to sit still.

Until two horses appeared on the street, a young man in a blue brocade robe after the rain rode the horse, and in a moment he stopped in front of the mansion gate.

He rolled over and down with one smooth, crisp movement.

Yun Qingyin hasn't seen her cousin Chu Qibai for ten years. At this moment, the image of the young man is extremely vivid and strong.

A sentence popped up in my mind unconsciously: The horse gallops in the spring breeze, and I can see all the flowers in Chang'an in one day.

It seems that a young man of his age should be so high-spirited and energetic.
