In the evening, the group arrived at Guanhe Town, a town near the capital.
Wei Zhongzai had already taken one step ahead of them and booked the largest and most luxurious restaurant in town.
After the carriage stopped in front of the restaurant, the two of them got out of the car. Just as they were about to enter the restaurant, they heard a burst of yelling and swearing, as well as a woman crying and begging for mercy.
"Wei Zhong, go see what's going on." Nangong Mo looked unhappy, Junmei frowned slightly.
"Yes." Wei Zhong took the order and hurried over. Not long after, he came over with a ragged woman, "Master, she is a woman who sold her body to bury her father. A group of land protectors are demanding land tax."
Nangong Mo's expression was solemn. At the feet of the emperor, in the nearest town to the capital, there was such a thing.
Xia Bingyan, on the other hand, took a few steps forward and looked at the timid girl, with a flash of excitement flashing across her face.
"What's your name?" she asked softly, holding the woman's hand affectionately.
The woman was a little scared and wanted to pull her hand away, but the beautiful woman in front of her held her tightly, "Folk girl, the girl's name is Yao'er."
"Yao'er, tell me why they bully you." Xia Bingyan picked the dead grass from her hair and continued to ask.
After hearing this, Yao'er's dirty face suddenly had a miserable expression, and her eyes shone with water.
"The father of a civilian girl died of illness, but her family was poor and had no money to buy a thin coffin for her father. She thought about selling herself into slavery to bury her father, but..."
"Don't be sad." She patted Yao'er's hand lovingly, and then told Wei Zhong who was standing aside, "Go and arrange a room for her, Liuxu, prepare a set of clothes for her, and prepare dinner for her later.
.”
Liu Xu and Wei Zhongfu nodded and went down to work.
The two of them then went upstairs to the room Wei Zhong had prepared for them.
"Yan'er, I can't keep that woman." Nangong Mo stepped forward and hugged her, sat on the edge of the bed and put her on his lap.
Xia Bingyan caressed his handsome face, "Did you notice it too?"
"Yes." He nodded and said "people's daughter". Her voice was emotional, logical and measured. She was definitely not an ordinary woman.
"We have just left the capital, and there is already someone who can't wait to give us a meeting gift. That person is really filial. If we don't accept it, it seems a bit unreasonable." Xia Bingyan nodded her lower lip and whispered.
Nangong Mo hugged her a little tighter and rested his chin on her shoulder, "That's what I say, but it's always a bit inappropriate to have such a woman. Or can you tolerate her hanging around me?"
Nangong Mo swore that if she dared to say yes, she would make her unable to get out of bed or walk for three days and three nights.
"How could it be?" Xia Bingyan raised her voice, "I am very narrow-minded. My man can only belong to me. Anyone who touches him will have his hands and feet cut off."
That's pretty much it, Nangong Mo nodded with a smile.
"But if we don't find out clearly, it will be very troublesome later, right?"
"So what." Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows. From the moment she came here, although he seemed calm on the surface, it didn't mean that he, Nangong Mo, was a powerless emperor. People who knew him well knew that
You know, Nangong Mo’s skeletal energy is the best in the world, and his martial arts is also one of the best.
"Anyway, I was bored along the way, so I just teased the little stray dog and lured out the jackal behind her." At this point, a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes flashed with eagerness.
Seeing her expression, Nangong Mo stopped making any other expression except sighing. This queen was indeed as troublesome as Zhu Li worried.
