In the afternoon of that day, Lan Qiao sent Lan Feng out of the city first. Before leaving, the latter asked Ben Yali: "What did you say?"

Ben Yali rolled her eyes and said: "Of course I have to keep an eye on you, otherwise who knows whether you, a scoundrel like you, will default on your debt?"

So the two of them left the city together. When Lan Qiao returned to Xiang Mansion, Xiang Yixuan nervously stopped him and said, "Huaiyuan has sent off my brother and this girl. Is there any news about Xiao Shu?"

Lan Qiao was startled, thinking that he had forgotten to explain to Xiang Yixuan. Seeing that he suddenly sent his brother away, Xiang Yixuan must have thought that he had found the whereabouts of Li Jingshu, and was ready to fight to the death with the enemy without any distractions.

Not knowing how to answer, Hua Yuxi said solemnly: "Exactly, we got the news that Miss Li's family was locked up in a warehouse in Linjiang by the Longhu Gang."

Xiang Yixuan said with emotion: "Is the news reliable?"

"It can't be wrong. We overheard a conversation between two members of the Dragon and Tiger Gang. They said that Miss Li had been on a hunger strike since she was imprisoned. Their brothers in charge of the warehouse were very worried, and sometimes they had to force-feed her.

Go down with some porridge."

"I would rather break than bend." Xiang Yixuan said with a wry smile, "This does seem to be her style."

"The Dragon Tiger Gang is backed by the White Lotus Sect. We all know how powerful it is in the capital." Hua Yuxi said cautiously, "Master Xiang's family has a great cause. Don't get involved in this muddy water."

"Hua, everyone said that, you really underestimated me, Xiang." Xiang Yixuan said dissatisfiedly, "I will make preparations right away. Leave this matter to me and let you two go. That's really killing an egg with a stone."

After Xiang Yixuan left in a hurry, Lan Qiao asked in a low voice: "What kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd?"

"Let's talk about it after we go back to the room with my slave."

The two walked into Hua Yuxi's room, and Hua Yuxi said mysteriously: "What I am doing is repairing the plank road openly and crossing Chencang secretly. I deliberately provoke him to find trouble with the Longhu Gang in order to hide our true goal."

"What is the real goal?"

"Of course it's the Goddess Building. I'm going to get something so that Liu Yueyao won't be able to sleep well from now on."

"Young Master, you might as well guess first. I will reveal the answer when we get to the Goddess Tower."

Lan Qiao nodded and couldn't help but added: "But since we visited the Xu Mansion at night, the Erqi Society has been very alert. Even if Brother Simiao blocks our arrows, the Goddess Tower cannot be completely undefended."

Hua Yuxi said calmly: "This means we need to give them another bait."

"What bait?"

Hua Yuxi didn't answer and asked instead: "What are the consequences if I appear openly on the street?"

Lan Qiao said without thinking: "The Erqi Society will naturally go out with all its strength to capture you or kill you on the spot."

"What happens after you lose me?"

"Then they may remember the last time we broke into the Goddess Tower at night and strengthen their defenses."

"What if there is a conflict between Xiang Yixuan and the Longhu Gang at this time?"

"How can there be such a coincidence in the world? At this time, even if Xu Huizu thought with his feet, he could think that we were connected with Simiao. If I were him, I would send people to quell the misunderstanding between Simiao and the Longhu Gang, and at the same time lead

People searched Xiang Mansion and found us."

"That's right!" Hua Yuxi clapped her palms together and said excitedly: "If you want to hunt down our pair of male and female thieves, you have to be a master. By then, people like Xu Huizu, Liu Jing, Liu Yueyao and the border city arrows will definitely gather together.

Mansion, if we go to the Goddess Tower at this time, can we do whatever we want?"

Lan Qiao sighed in admiration: "If you talk about being cunning and cunning, I will never be as good as you in eight lifetimes."

Hua Yuxi said angrily: "I am obviously smart and smart, how can I become a cunning person?"

Lan Qiao muttered: "Then who are the male and female robbers?"

At dusk, Lan Qiao and Hua Yuxi walked into a street market.

Lan Qiao is dressed in stiff clothes, with a shining sword hanging from his waist. He looks majestic as he walks with his head held high. Hua Yuxi is also dressed up in a colorful way. The little bird holds Lan Qiao's arm lovingly, like a pair of beautiful people, which makes many passers-by envious.

They strolled leisurely in the market, and when they passed by a clothing store with a gold-lettered signboard, Hua Yuxi said with a smile: "I want to go in and have a look."

When the shopkeeper of the ready-made clothing store saw such a glamorous man and woman coming in and knew that the rich man was coming, he immediately put on a professional and silly smile and hurriedly introduced the latest fabrics and styles of ready-made clothes in the store to the two.

The maid held out a set of gorgeous long skirts and compared them with Hua Yuxi. She found that the hem of the skirt was half an inch shorter at the ankles, exposing a section of her crystal-clear legs. She couldn't help but said with regret and envy: "Miss

Her legs are really long, and the skirt is designed to cover her feet, but I didn’t expect that it can’t even cover my ankles.”

When Hua Yuxi saw the maid turning around to go back, she smiled and picked up the long skirt and said, "Let me try it, maybe I like this style."

The maid smiled again and quickly pulled Hua Yuxi into the inner room and let her into a small space separated by a curtain.

There was a rustling sound from inside the curtain, and the maid stood outside the curtain. Thinking of Hua Yuxi's appearance when she was changing clothes, her face could not help but heat up.

Suddenly, Hua Yuxi called her, "Call my officials."

The maid felt a little strange and wondered why Hua Yuxi didn't come out in the changed clothes and instead let Lan Qiao in. But since the guest had a request, she couldn't say more, so she had to go to the outer room with an embarrassed look and put Lan Qiao in.

Bridge please come in too.

As soon as Lan Qiao opened the corner of the curtain, he was pulled in by Hua Yuxi. He saw that Hua Yuxi had put on new clothes, and the skirt of the new clothes was indeed shorter at the ankles as the maid said.

"We're not really here to go shopping." Lan Qiao whispered.

"Actually, being short also has its advantages." Hua Yuxi did not answer his words and said to herself, "At least when the time comes, I will be able to run more agilely."

When the maid heard her talking about "running away", she couldn't help but get excited. Just as she was about to give a reminder, Hua Yuxi had already lifted the curtain and came out. She turned around lightly, put a few golden beans on the counter and said, "Is that enough?

"

"That's enough, that's enough." The shopkeeper was polite, but he didn't forget to put the golden beans in his hand and weigh them.

As soon as Hua Yuxi, who had changed into new clothes, walked out of the clothing store, she immediately attracted even more attention than just now. Although her new clothes seemed a bit ill-fitting, the eyes of passers-by were instead focused on her uncovered feet and a small

Cut off the jade leg.

From time to time there were whispers in the crowd, especially other shopping ladies and young women, who scolded her for being slutty and flirtatious. Unexpectedly, she heard the "whispers".

"Do you understand? This is human nature." Hua Yuxi covered her mouth and whispered to Lan Qiao, "It won't take long. Even people who have never seen me before will know that it is me, Hua Yuxi, who is here."

The two of them passed by a stall selling meat cakes. Hua Yuxi saw that the stall owner looked at her with straight eyes, and couldn't help teasing him: "It's okay to look at girls, but it's better to restrain your eyes. If you look at her so blatantly,

Aren’t you afraid of getting beaten?”

The stall owner suddenly came to his senses and repeatedly begged Lan Qiao, who had a sword hanging on his waist. Lan Qiao knew that Hua Yuxi was deliberately causing trouble, so he watched the excitement and said calmly: "What's the use of begging for mercy?

?Show some sincerity."

"But..." The stall owner didn't know what he meant. He touched his money bag with a sad face. He just wanted to lose money and avoid disaster, but then he heard Hua Yuxi say: "Your pancakes are quite fragrant. I'll take them."

Two, I will accept your apology."

After saying that, she was not afraid of burning her hands, so she directly picked up two meat patties from the stove and continued to move forward, eating them happily.
