Thinking about it this way, it seems that her prophecy has succeeded.

This Xuanji Pavilion is really not a bluff, it really has a few tricks.Xia Yu who came out of Xuanji Pavilion replaced the original owner, but he also knew that there were not many disciples in Xuanji Pavilion, but they were either geniuses who knew astronomy and geography at the top, and the strategy of governing the country at the bottom, or they were martial idiots with high martial arts skills.

Unlike a Jianghu sect that fights and kills, the existence of Xuanji Pavilion reminds Xia Yu of the Pre-Qin Hundred Schools. They are more like that kind of existence, but there are some differences.

"It's really a headache."

Xia Yu patted her head in annoyance.

It's just that Xia Yu doesn't know now that her troubles will be resolved soon.

After Xia Yu seized power, Qin Mingyue's desire to control power was extremely strong after killing Xia Yu, and even set up a secret guard of Qin State to monitor the officials and the capital.

The hidden guards are Qin Mingyue's eyes and ears outside the palace.

After killing Xia Yu, Qin Mingyue wanted to become a wise king to prove her point of view and prove that she could do without Xia Yu.

However, the courtiers questioned and the common people cursed, which made Qin Mingyue feel angry.It also happened later that she promulgated policies that were beneficial to the people, but the officials below deliberately distorted the meaning, increased taxes, and made her bear the infamy after getting the money.

Qin Mingyue was completely enraged.

After Xia Yu's death, the military and the government were merged into one. Qin Mingyue, who held the military power in his hand, killed the world and turned the world upside down. The court was full of heads.

Qin Mingyue had a great time killing, but he was given the title of tyrant, which he couldn't take off, and he also hated many people. After killing [-]% of the officials, Daqin faced the most severe test since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

That is no one is available!

Even the officials who were still alive were trembling, for fear that if they accidentally hurt Qin Mingyue, they would end up like Xia Yu and those who did not report the truth.

In the beginning, Qin Mingyue had patience to manage, but the situation became more and more chaotic. After those scholars and aristocratic families ganged up to threaten her, Qin Mingyue gave up on herself, seeing the mess and had no intention of cleaning it up.

Everyone in the world scolded her and cursed her.

Since everyone in the world calls her a tyrant, she will be infamous no matter what she does, so she should be a tyrant!

In this way, the world became what it is now.

The palace, the Ziwei Palace!

"you sure"

Qin Mingyue had long since given up treatment, and no longer cared about etiquette and majesty, and it was even more impossible to read memorials.

She was dressed loosely, playing with a jade cup filled with transparent wine in her hand, with a playful smile on her face.

"This subordinate confirms that the person's whereabouts are strange, and he is most likely a disciple of Xuanji Pavilion!"

Xuanji Pavilion

Qin Mingyue narrowed her eyes and chuckled lightly.

"Interesting, really interesting. Is this palace still alive, so they can't wait to establish a new emperor?"

With a flick of her hand, Qin Mingyue discarded the cup in her hand, and the contents of the cup spilled onto the ground, soiling the ground.

"Forget it, there is no need to startle the snake, I want to see which sage can win the favor of Xuanji Pavilion."

No one dared to appreciate Qin Mingyue's extremely soft smile. Since Xia Yu's death, Qin Mingyue became more moody, and no one dared to look directly at Qin Mingyue, the empress.

Xia Yu rested for a while, spent some money to inquire about some things from the waiter at the inn, and got some news from him.

There is a place for fireworks in the city, named Anxiang Pavilion, the dignitaries here like to drink and listen to music, if you want to make connections and get information about the court, you still have to go to the Anxiang Pavilion.

The Dark Fragrance Pavilion is a romantic place, and women are naturally not allowed to enter a place aimed at men. Therefore, if Xia Yu wants to enter, not only must he be rich, but he must also disguise himself as a man so that those people can't see through him.

money……

Xia Yu stroked her chin and thought for a moment.

Money is not easy to deal with. Although she has some money, it is not much. If she goes to a place with high consumption like Anxiang Pavilion, she may be penniless overnight.

to go or not to go

Xia Yu thought about it for a long time, but finally she gave up the idea of ​​going to the Anxiang Pavilion to inquire about news because of poverty, but this idea also gave her inspiration.

She can dress up as a man.

Dressing up as a man and putting on make-up, although she will feel similar to now, no one should recognize her as a dead person who died two years ago.

With a plan in mind, Xia Yu waited until the next day, went to a tailor shop that was not very busy, and bought a suit of men's clothing that fit.

By the time she reappeared, she had already abandoned the bamboo hat, was wearing a man's attire and held a folding fan, and slightly modified the details of her face, which brought a bit of heroism. Others would only think that she was fair and clean, and she was more beautiful than ordinary men. If she is thinner, she won't think she is a woman at a glance.

"Young master in front, please stay."

A voice suddenly sounded from behind, Xia Yu paused in striding forward, and looked back suspiciously.

It was an ordinary-looking man dressed in black. He saluted Xia Yu with a smile, and said, "Is the young master busy now?"

"That's not true." Xia Yu opened the folding fan and said with a smile on her face, "I'm here for the first time, and I don't have anything important to do now."

"My lord, my lady would like to invite you upstairs to talk." The man had a modest smile on his face, and turned his eyes to the restaurant next to him.

Xia Yu also looked at the nearby restaurant, and saw the plaque with the three big characters of Manxiangtang printed in his eyes.

This Manxiangtang Xia Yu has some impressions, it has been opened in the capital for many years, and the taste is unique in the capital, so people often invite her to eat here.

"Your lady"

The man nodded: "My young lady is the younger sister of General Zhengbei Chu Ye."

This man brought out the words "General Zhengbei", and it was impossible for anyone to reject him. Since the prime minister's mansion was burned two years ago, and Chu Ye's status rose sharply after the blood spattered Meridian Gate a year ago.

Chu Ye's prestige is not low. When people speculated whether Chu Ye would be the next Xia Yu, Chu Ye remained silent and loyal to Qin Mingyue. He even sent his younger brother into the palace and became Qin Mingyue. The right arm and right arm of his subordinates.

The brothers of the Chu family, one outside and the other inside, are loyal to Qin Mingyue and hate Qin Mingyue's misbehavior, so they affectionately call them Chu dogs in private.

No matter how dissatisfied I am with this brother, I can't deny that the Chu family is now flourishing in the capital!

"It turns out that Ms. Chu wants to see me." Xia Yu showed a smile on her face, "Then I will trouble you, brother, to lead the way."

Chu Ye's younger sister?

Xia Yu thought for a while.

When she was still in school, only Chu Ye was in the court in the Chu family, and he had two younger brothers and sisters. Xia Yu also knew about this, and she had met those two a few times.

Chu Ye's younger brother's name is Chu Ming, and his younger sister's name is Chu Yanyun.

They don't seem to be too old. Two years later, the siblings should be around eighteen, not twenty.

Xia Yu followed behind the man, with a serious mood under the relaxed smile. She had met Chu Yanyun before, so she had to think about the exposed issues.

Entering the second floor of Manxiangtang, the man stopped outside a private room, lowered his head and made a gesture of invitation to Xia Yu.

Xia Yu nodded at him, and calmly walked into the private room that she didn't want to enter.

There was only one woman in blue clothes in the private room. She had a pretty face and her skin was even more beautiful than snow. She was looking at Xia Yu with her eyes.

"I met Miss Chu."

"Young master, you don't need to be too polite." Chu Yanyun nodded to Xia Yu.

Although her elder brother is a general, her body is not very good. She is not only thin, but also sick.

"Hastily asked the family to invite the young master to come up to explain, if you accidentally startled the young master, please ask the young master to be Haihan."

"Miss Chu is overthinking. How can I be dissatisfied with being invited by Miss Chu? It's just that I have some doubts. How could Miss Chu suddenly invite me into the private room to talk about it?"

Xia Yu has been in the rivers and lakes. Apart from making up and changing her appearance, she also has some voice-changing skills, so she is not afraid of her voice revealing herself.

She was also very calm.

"This matter..." Chu Yanyun smiled embarrassedly at Xia Yu, and that smile was as warm as the warm winter sun: "I asked you to tell the story because I was a little curious. You and an old friend I once met Kind of similar."

"Old man" Xia Yu chewed on this sentence, and suddenly said: "Miss Chu is referring to Xia Xiang, Xia Yu?"

Xia Yu clearly saw the slight change in Chu Yanyun's expression, and confirmed in her heart that she came to the door because of her appearance, but she no longer panicked, but felt at ease.

"So it's because of this incident. Ms. Chu is actually not the first person to say this to me. Several friends I met on the rivers and lakes also said this to me, and asked me and What is Xia Yu's relationship with her? Is it her brother? Haha, Xia Yu and I have never met before, how could it be her brother?"

The gleam in Chu Yanyun's eyes flickered: "Is the young master a person in the Jianghu?"

"Yes." Xia Yu opened the folding fan with a smile, and said to Chu Yanyun: "I come from the far west, a small sect called Fengyue Palace."

"Wind Moon Palace"

Xia Yu nodded: "There are not many disciples in the school, and their martial arts are not strong, so their reputation is not obvious. It is normal for Miss Chu not to know."

"I see."

"My name is Yuxi, and I am a senior disciple of the sect. I came to the Central Plains martial arts this time because I wanted to gain some knowledge. I just met some friends, and everyone said that I look like that Xia Xiang. I couldn't help being curious, so I came here. This capital."

Chu Yanyun didn't know whether to believe it or not. After hearing what she said, she was silent for a while, and then said: "I was negligent. Please sit down, Mr. Yu. The dishes in Manxiangtang are good and worth a try."

Xia Yu squinted and smiled: "I have heard about the reputation of Manxiangtang a long time ago, but I was too shy to try it out, but now it is Miss Chu's blessing to have the opportunity to enjoy this Manxiangtang. Xiangtang's delicacy is praised as the best in the world."

Chu Yanyun smiled and said: "Then you have to try it out. Manxiangtang's dishes are said to be the best in the world, and it's not unreasonable."
