"I'm afraid I haven't eaten enough books." The young man poured himself a cup of tea.
"What nonsense servant is talking nonsense! Let him eat soybeans for three months after he returns!" The crisp voice was panicked, with the intention of changing the subject. "Master, why don't you go to the government office?"
"No rush."
…
Mu Su led the horse to the door of a three-story inn.
The discerning waiter arrived early and led the horse into the stable.
As soon as Fang walked in, the hot air and noise hit his face. Most of the seats were full, and there were many diners. A storyteller was giving a lecture on the wooden platform. After listening for a while, Mu Su found that he was still talking about Journey to the West.
The waiter put the horse away, trotted back, bowed and asked, "Does this gentleman want to be a sharpshooter or stay in a hotel?"
"I want them all." Mu Su folded his fingers, walked straight to the counter, placed the fake imperial seal on the table, and shouted to the boss with a mustache behind the counter: "I am Qin——"
【Can't say!】
The far-sighted Transparent Bridge sent the message a few seconds in advance.
Mu Su blinked at the stunned boss and waiter a few times, and said dryly: "——I came to stay in the hotel in person, give me a room. There will be food and wine, but no alcohol."
"It's easy to talk about."
The boss laughed and took a wooden sign from behind and handed it to Mu Su. The waiter diligently led Mu Su to the third floor.
Not long after, the waiter ran down and almost tripped because he was in too much haste, which made the diners around him laugh.
The waiter ran back to the counter and asked: "Shopkeeper, this person..."
"Go to the stables and see what kind of horse he has."
"Okay."
The waiter responded and ran to the backyard. After a while, he came in a hurry, panting unevenly and said: "Yes, it's an official horse..."
"Hiss..." The shopkeeper took a breath.
As an innkeeper, he is well-informed, and as his sister-in-law's husband serves as a prefect, he naturally knows more than ordinary people.
Thinking about it carefully, although the young man was dusty, his appearance and fair skin were definitely not ordinary. The ink mark on his brow was not noticed before, but when he thought about it carefully...it happened to be very different from the rumored ink mark on Mr. Li's eyebrows.
.What was thrown on the table was obviously the official seal.
"I am dear... Qin... Qin..." The boss was shocked and shouted: "Imperial envoy!"
thump--
The waiter was so frightened that he fell to the ground.
"You watch the store, I'll go to the government office." The boss walked out from the backstage, picked up his skirt and hurried out.
"Ah Fu, where is your boss going in such a hurry? Is there a kid outside who was caught by the madam?"
"Hahahahaha."
Regular customers teased her, so the waiter had to laugh and deal with it.
…
"He came so fast!?"
The government office of Zhizhou Prefecture, the reception hall.
Cui Zimin, the local magistrate, stood up in surprise.
He took two hurried steps and came to the two figures standing with their hands tied and asked: "Are you sure?"
The innkeeper lowered his head in fear and said hesitantly: "This man has official seals and an ink mark between his eyebrows. He even almost said that he was an imperial envoy. I'm afraid there is a high probability..."
"That's it..." the prefect breathed a sigh of relief, "I heard that Li Xianyuan set off from Bingjing a few days ago. Calculating the time, it will be almost there. But... why didn't he come to the government office and went to the inn instead?"
After much deliberation, it seems that the only one that makes sense is a private visit via a private server.
He walked impatiently back and forth in the living room. After a while, he stopped and shouted: "Get the car ready, I'm going to see Mr. Li."
…
"Why can't you tell me?"
In the guest room, Mu Su didn't answer the question after the waiter left.
Not returning wealth to one's hometown is like walking in brocade at night. Let yourself, who has always been ostentatious, not be ostentatious. The Transparent Bridge is forcing others to do something difficult!
[You plan to pretend to be an imperial envoy, but have you ever thought about what would happen if the real imperial envoy were there? 】
"Of course I'm trying to convince people with my reasoning that I'm the real imperial envoy."
[When have you ever reasoned...and how can you persuade someone when the real imperial envoy is present?]
"Wouldn't it be nice if the real imperial envoy thought I was the real imperial envoy?"
【…………………………………………】
The transparent bridge sends a string of ellipses.
[In short, the main mission has reached the final step, don’t move forward rashly and cause the mission to fail. 】
"Okay, you crossdresser, everything you said is right."
【Don’t mention this!】
[Eh? What do you mean?] Kallen looked confused.
[Since we are pretending to be a real imperial envoy, the first thing we have to do is not to expose our secrets. Let’s first find out what kind of person the imperial envoy is.]
Mu Su nodded: "That makes sense, then you go and find out the news, and I'll take care of the food, drinks, and fun."
He was still thinking about the flower boat that Shiqiao saw. It was so big... the girl in it must be pretty, right?
[…? Please wake up. This is a single-player instance, and you are the only one in the instance.]
Transparent Bridge had to sigh and said.
Mu Su looked horrified: "Then why are you talking to me!"
【...Live broadcast room.】
"What happened in the live broadcast room!"
[We are talking to you in the live broadcast room, not a copy.]
"Oh, right..." Mu Su chuckled a few times when he thought of this.
Before inquiring about the news, Mu Su asked the waiter to prepare hot water. He wanted to take a shower and change clothes.
Transparent Bridge felt a little uncomfortable and temporarily withdrew, leaving only Kallen in the live broadcast room.
The bathing process was not fragrant, but Kallen was very satisfied. She said some words that made people blush. For example, her tongue was flexible and she understood how to shoot explosive bombs in succession. Musu's pure little heart couldn't bear it.
When Transparent Bridge returned to the live broadcast room, Mu Su had just finished washing and walked to the bed to unpack and put on new clothes.
I left in a hurry, but I had prepared everything well. The costumes for the imperial envoy from the opera house, and more than sixty taels of silver from the warehouse - the police officer didn't lie, the county government really didn't have that kind of money.
As for taking money from the warehouse...and own things, can that be called stealing?
I just wish I didn't have Shang Fang's sword. Otherwise, wearing a gorgeous official uniform, walking on cloud-like shoes, wearing a crown, and carrying a sword on his waist, anyone would sincerely praise him.
"ah--"
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly noticed that the transparent bridge broke in. Mu Su covered her chest and screamed shyly.
【……】The transparent bridge makes my eyes irritate.
Ka Dalian jumped out and said: [Get out quickly! Didn’t you see Mu Su changing clothes? 】
【I...okay.】
Transparent Bridge temporarily cut out of the game, sat up from the game room, and stared out the window at the deserted dark red Martian scenery for a while in a daze.
She returned to the game again and Mu Su had already changed her clothes.
His black hair was wet and hung on the back of his head. The style of the imperial envoy's costume was almost the same as that of the official uniform, except that the dark red robe was inlaid with gold threads and looked very gorgeous.
Transparent Bridge suddenly doubted whether the plan to pretend to be an imperial envoy would succeed.
She took a deep breath and planned to think of a way out in case of emergency, when a shout came from outside the door.
"Cui Zimin, the magistrate of Zhizhou Prefecture, wants to see the imperial envoy."
【It came so quickly!】
Mu Su went to open the door and saw the boss and three or four officials standing outside. The middle-aged man at the head bowed and saluted: "Master Li, why didn't you say hello when you came, so that we could come and greet you."
