Reborn ten times, she is the real daughter of the Marquis Mansion and she doesn't pretend anymo

The morning light fills the clear sky, the red sun hangs on the mountain top, the early birds in the forest sing happily in the early spring breeze, and the blue dragon flies over the sky, bathing in the new day.

In order to avoid attracting the attention of the people, they used wooden puppets and tried to travel at night, avoiding prosperous cities and choosing remote places in the wilderness.

Azure Dragon is faster than Vermillion Bird, and Teng Snake is even faster, but... they stayed in the camp until very late before setting off, so they had not reached the capital by early morning.

But they arrived outside a big city very close to the capital and stopped on a mountainside.

After landing, everyone quickly found a Taoist temple nearby. This ordinary small Taoist temple did not have any Taoist priests with strong cultivation ability, so naturally they did not receive any invitation to participate in the Luotian Grand Ceremony.

They stayed in this Taoist temple and learned that the Taoists were from the Qingfeng Temple in the East. They also added a lot of incense oil. The master of the temple was very happy and directly left the Sanqing Hall and the side hall for them to use.

Yun Xuanyu sent a letter to his third senior brother before he set out last night, and sent another letter to him early in the morning when it was still dark and they judged that they could not make it back to the capital.

Now that they had arrived at the small Taoist temple, they all performed morning prayers, and then took out their own dry food and used the temple's kitchen to make hot meals, so as not to cause too much trouble to this small temple with only a dozen Taoists.

After breakfast, they went into the city together.

However, it was the fourth day of the first lunar month, and people were still celebrating the New Year. The streets were so deserted that there were not even any small vendors. Only a few large restaurants were open, doing business of entertaining guests for the city's idle people.

Even the inn was closed at this time, with no travelers rushing out or stranded here.

So their group of nearly thirty people found a fairly busy restaurant and occupied four large tables on the first floor. When the restaurant owner saw so many guests, he was immediately delighted, but then his expression froze.

Because most of the guests were wearing Taoist robes, that is to say, a group of Taoists came to eat on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. How much money can they make? Maybe they just stopped by to have a meal on their way?

The shopkeeper didn't want to do this business, but he didn't dare to offend anyone. After all, this was the Great Xia Dynasty, and the emperor was a Taoist. Who among their people would dare to offend the Taoist priest?

Finally, the shopkeeper made a bitter face and motioned for the waiter to come over and greet them.

Yuntang didn't get a good rest last night and looked listless. Yun Xuanmo handed her a cup of hot tea and held her hands with both hands to warm them.

They are practitioners and are not afraid of the cold. Even Yuntang was wearing little before and didn't feel cold.

But now she has to wrap herself in a cloak, her little hands are always cold, and her face is not as rosy as before, but a bit pale, making her look like a sickly and delicate flower.

This made him a little worried, but his pulse couldn't find any problems, and his master also said that he just needed to go home and rest.

While they were whispering, Lan Jue had already started ordering food.

As the royal wine merchant in the southern region, he had opened several prosperous Ruyilou restaurants. Lan Jue ordered a sumptuous meal and wine, which immediately made the waiter, who had been a little reluctant, smile and his attitude instantly became attentive.

In fact, how could they not see the attitude of everyone from the restaurant owner to the waiter?

But they didn't care. It was New Year's Day and they just came to have a hot meal. There was no need to care about the faces of these mean people.

In order to avoid being disturbed, Lan Jue even paid an extra two hundred taels to book the restaurant, and told them that only outgoing customers were allowed and no incoming customers were allowed. If the restaurant allowed new customers to come in, it would have to compensate him with five hundred taels.

The restaurant was not open for business in the first month of the lunar year and business was already slow. The owner was of course very happy to make an extra two hundred taels of silver and readily agreed.

He even told the waiter to quickly close half of the door panel, and shouted in front of other guests to make sure the door was guarded well because a distinguished guest had booked the whole place today.

The other tables of guests who had entered the restaurant earlier saw this, and then looked at the four tables that had reserved the entire place. Many of them were wearing Taoist robes, while those who were not wearing Taoist robes looked wealthy and not easy to mess with. After thinking it over, they did not dare to say anything.

The people at the four tables at Qingfeng Temple ignored everyone else.

They all went out in winter. Some went from the East Border to the North Border to deal with the snow disaster, and then went from the North Border to the West Border to many places to deal with many things.

After enduring hardships and sleeping in the open air, they finally completed the mission and could go to the capital to rest. Therefore, they were now very relaxed and did not hesitate to follow their uncle masters in enjoying the delicious food and drinks.

After all, this world belongs to their Third Uncle (Third Grandmaster), so why should they be so reserved?

While they were eating, they heard angry shouting at the door of the restaurant. Everyone looked towards the door and saw two waiters apologizing to the man outside with smiling faces, but they did not dare to let him in.

If the restaurant lets other guests in, it will have to compensate Lan Jue five hundred taels of silver.

But the man must have been of considerable background, so the waiter didn't dare to do anything to him, which resulted in him getting angry at the door and about to step into the restaurant.

"Master Yu, please calm down! Our restaurant has indeed been booked by someone, so it's difficult for us to entertain other guests."

Seeing that the man outside was about to break in, the frightened shopkeeper hurriedly ran out from behind the counter and hurriedly blocked the door, secretly thanking his luck that he had already seen the opportunity and put up half of the door panel.

"I see there are still a lot of empty tables inside, how come the place is reserved? You're asking for trouble on New Year's Day, right? There's no reason not to do business when there's business coming!"

The man outside who was called Mr. Yu was stopped by the shopkeeper just as he was about to enter the door. He glared at the shopkeeper with a red face.

The shopkeeper smiled bitterly. If he had known that the city lord's son would come to eat, he would definitely not accept the two hundred taels from the previous customer. He made two hundred taels but offended the city lord's son. He would inevitably be in trouble in the future.

The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment and asked the city guard to wait. He quickly came to Yuntang and the others' table and looked at Lan Jue with a smirk on his face.

After all, Lan Jue was the one who ordered the dishes and proposed to book the whole place, which means he was the host of the banquet.

"Sir, the person outside is the city guard. Please give him some favors."

Lan Jue sneered and said calmly, "When you collected the money from me for booking the whole place, why didn't you say you would give me a break?"

The shopkeeper's expression froze, somewhat embarrassed, but he still whispered: "We have offended the city keeper, and our restaurant can no longer operate here. This..."

"It's okay. If your restaurant can't continue to operate, I will book another restaurant next time." Lan Jue said unmoved.

The shopkeeper's eyebrows were filled with annoyance, and he spoke less politely: "Sir, today is only the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. It's better not to be too heartless and hurt the harmony."

Lan Jue looked at him with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

"You charged me two hundred taels for the private viewing, and we agreed that if you let the guests in, you would have to compensate me five hundred taels."

"Why, you want to use the city guards to suppress an ordinary citizen like me, letting guests in without paying me 500 taels, and easily making 200 taels of my private booking fee?"

"I paid to book the place just to have some peace and quiet, but you want to disturb my peace and quiet?"

"Eighth Senior Brother, there is no need to say more to him. If he doesn't abide by the agreement, there is no need to open this restaurant." Yun Tang frowned and spoke unhappily.
