"Wei Chen Chang Sen..."
"No need to follow the rules outside!"
Zhu Yunxi smiled and waved his hand to stop Chang Sen from saluting.
But the other party still bowed respectfully before he stood up.
Because Chang Sen knows that although the two parties are blood relatives, the more blood relatives they are, the less they can be arrogant and favored.
And if it was in the past, the emperor might still need to participate. But now, only the emperor shows favor to the Chang family. If the Chang family is not blood related to the emperor, it is actually dispensable.
"Your Majesty, why don't you enter the city?" Chang Sen asked, standing beside Zhu Yunxi.
Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether you enter or not!" He said, and smiled again, "This Wuchang City must be full of flowers. If I want to really see what the people's life is like, look at the outside city.
Ordinary people are the same!"
"Then you can't stay here!" Chang Sen laughed, "The inns in the outer city are a mixed bag..."
"Isn't it a mixture of good and bad among people?" Zhu Yunxi glanced at him.
This glance made Chang Sen panic for no reason.
In fact, he secretly knew the news that the emperor was coming. Presumably the emperor must have also known about it, so he sent people to look for him before he arrived in Wuchang.
Moreover, the meaning revealed in the emperor's words is that I want to see it myself. Don't be smart and think about showing me the things you have arranged.
But in the end, it doesn't matter to him what the emperor wants to see. He is leading the troops. Even if the emperor is unhappy when he sees it, it is the responsibility of the civil servants and has nothing to do with him.
But for some reason, he felt uneasy in his heart.
Is this uneasiness simply due to the emperor’s power?
It seemed to be, and there seemed to be something else...but he hadn't noticed the other reasons for a while.
At this moment, Zhu Yunxi suddenly spoke again, "It's dinner time and I'm a little hungry." He said with a smile, "Uncle, how about you go out for a walk with me?"
"I...can't get what I asked for!" Chang Sen said with a smile.

Zhu Yunxi was in front, Chang Sheng was behind, and they left the private room of the inn one after another.
The entire single room on the second floor of the inn has been reserved by Li Jinglong for a long time. This is still a visible place, and there may be many Jin Yiwei spies who protect the emperor hidden in the invisible place.
"Your Majesty, you...?" Li Jinglong had been standing at the top of the stairs. When he saw Zhu Yunxi coming out, he hurriedly came up to greet him and asked.
"I and Marquis Huaiyuan went out to look for some local snacks and see the customs and customs!" Zhu Yunxi said, looking at Li Jinglong, "You should follow too!"
"If you don't let me follow you, I will follow you shamelessly!" Li Jinglong said with a smile.
Then, he stepped out of the way of the stairs and inadvertently made eye contact with Chang Sen.
When the two parties' eyes met, Li Jinglong's eyes were full of smiles.
Chang Sen responded with a smile, but then his heart suddenly became alarmed...
At this moment, another reason why he felt so uneasy just now seemed to be found.
"The Emperor knows that I know that he is coming, so how do I know that he is coming? The Emperor must also know!"
"Then the emperor means to warn me not to let me get too close to Li Jinglong?"
~~
At this time, night came quietly.
Even if it is the outer city of Wuchang, looking at it, it is far more prosperous than many places.
The streets and alleys were still busy, with the cries of vendors on the streets, and merchant ships on the docks shouting for people to unload their goods. The men who were unloading the goods smiled and asked the merchants to increase their prices in a leisurely manner.
On the river, there are reflections of lights.
The world is a living firework.
~
Zhu Yunxi put his hands behind his back and walked towards the most crowded place with a smile.
Next to the dock on the Yangtze River, there is a long street full of various snacks and wine shops, with fireworks in full bloom.
Rich people and high-status people wearing long gowns naturally go to restaurants. Ordinary people wearing short clothes go to street food stalls.
Zhu Yunxi stopped in front of a bustling restaurant and looked up at the windows on the second floor, which were full of diners enjoying their drinks.
At the same time, the waiter at the door of the store saw a group of well-dressed people stopping and knew that big business was coming, so he hurried out to welcome them.
"Master, do you want to eat?"
But at this moment, a boy wearing straw sandals ran up to Zhu Yunxi, raised his head and asked with flashing eyes.
Before Zhu Yunxi could say anything, the waiter who came out of the store waved his hand and cursed, "Go, go away! Who will eat your crappy stall?" He continued with a bad tone, "How many times have I told you? You are not allowed in here.
Soliciting customers in front of our store..."
"Ho!" Unexpectedly, the boy was not afraid of the waiter, who was a head taller than him. He pinched his waist and shouted loudly, "The road does not belong to your family, why don't you allow me to solicit customers? Why do you say that my house is a mess stall, and you are the only one?
Good family? A black-hearted shop, a black-hearted cook, only those who take advantage of others..."
"You...?" The waiter in the restaurant was furious, rolling up his sleeves and about to step forward.
The next second, a big hand directly grabbed the belt.
When he turned around, he saw a face with scars, which made him feel frightened.
Deng Ping stared at the waiter, "I'm going to your house for dinner and then go back. Don't come and make trouble in front of grandpa, get out!"
At this time, the boy begged Zhu Yunxi again and said, "Master, I see that you are used to eating delicacies from all over the world! How about you change your taste and try my food?"
As he spoke, he patted his chest and said loudly, "If it doesn't taste good, you don't have to pay for it!"
"oh!"
Zhu Yunxi saw the appearance of this boy. The child of a poor man had long been in charge of the family. He was obviously in his early ten years, but his behavior was just like that of an adult.
"What food do you have at home?" Zhu Yunxi asked with a smile.
"The best soup dumplings in Wuchang, three fresh bean curds!" the boy said loudly.
"Haha, what a big statement, Wuchang is number one!" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile, "Okay, it's your house!"
~~
The boy ran forward, ran a few steps, and then ran back. He nodded and bowed and said a few good words to Zhu Yunxi, and then ran forward again.
Today, he met a distinguished guest. This group of people looked like they were rich by their clothes. The meal they had at his house was enough to sell his house for a month.
Moreover, rich people are generous and will be rewarded if they eat well...
So, he ran back and forth sweating profusely.
First, we cannot make the elders unhappy.
Second, we cannot let these distinguished guests be snatched away.
"Master, please come this way!"
As soon as the boy finished speaking, He Guangyi, who was behind Zhu Yunxi, gave a vague gesture not far away.
A few spies over there pretending to be ordinary people immediately began to patrol the surrounding area vigilantly.
This boy's stall is at the entrance of an alley.
The light and shadow at the entrance of the alley is a bit dark, and there are not many customers. There are only a few long stools and a few low tables, but some of them cannot fit on the table.
Amidst the smoke and smoke, there was a vague figure of a woman, standing busy at the counter.
Zhu Yunxi approached slowly, the woman lowered her head, pinched the white dough with her pink fingers, and with a deft move, a soup dumpling took shape.
"Sister!" the boy shouted, "A guest is coming! Look, there are so many guests!"
Hearing the sound, the woman raised her head and looked this way.
For a moment, Zhu Yunxi felt that what he saw was not a pair of eyes, but a pool of autumn water.
Brightness has nothing to do with water...but for such a clear brightness, other than autumn water, there is no suitable adjective for it.
What's a little regretful is that the woman's face is covered with a veil, so her true appearance cannot be seen clearly.
"Everyone, sit down a moment, the soup dumplings will be ready soon!"
When the woman saw a guest arriving, she flipped her hair and said hurriedly, "The soup dumplings are all made by my own hands, and they are all made with the sesame seeds chopped by myself. They are the cleanest!"
As she said this, she walked out of the interview room and wiped the table and bench with the handkerchief around her waist.
She bent over like this, directly revealing her beautiful curves.
Beside, the diners who were eating soup dumplings suddenly widened their eyes and stared greedily.
