Long Chen changed his clothes, took his guy with him, slowly opened the window, and climbed onto the roof.
There were soldiers patrolling the streets outside, as well as poisoned people lying on the ground.
Apart from them, there was no one else on the street.
Business travelers and ordinary people were hiding at home and did not dare to go out.
Li Chengdao miscalculated this time. He thought he could crush the Tianxiahui with the advantage of his military strength. However, he was overwhelmed by the Tianxiahui and the capital turned into a battlefield.
There are many hidden sentries of the Forbidden Army on the roof, and crossbowmen are ambushing on the roof and attic.
Taking advantage of the cover of night, Long Chen carefully avoided it and slowly moved towards the west of the city.
Tu Maocai was in Xinghua Lane in the west of the city, which is a prosperous residential area for powerful people.
There was still a war in the north of the city, and the people were mourning all over the place. But in the west of the city, the sound of strings and bamboos could be heard, and the dignitaries in the palace were still drinking and listening to music.
It seems that the battle in the north of the city has nothing to do with them.
We are in the same city but not in the same world. This has been the case since ancient times.
In ancient times, there was no house number. After Long Chen arrived at Xinghua Lane, he had to find it by himself.
Originally, there was a curfew in Jinling City at night, and there were imperial troops patrolling the city. However, due to the heavy fighting in the north of the city, they were all transferred to the front line to fight, and there was almost no one to take care of it.
Long Chen searched slowly on the roof.
When he was in Jinling City, Long Chen was a high-ranking young general of the Long family. Tu Maocai, a fifth-rank Dali Temple prime minister, was not in Long Chen's eyes at all.
So Long Chen didn't know where Tu Maocai lived.
Wow...
There was a sound of water, and Long Chen stood on a courtyard wall and saw a woman taking a bath.
A stout woman brought hot water and poured it into the tub. Next to her, a tall, bunny-looking woman slowly took off her myrobalan skirt.
The moment the myrobalan skirt fell down, Long Chen stopped.
The woman raised her legs and slowly walked into the tub, holding a bath towel in her hand and slowly wiping herself.
After watching for a while, Long Chen shook his head and thought to himself: Doing business is more important.
After passing through several houses, Long Chen was still unable to determine which one was Tu Maocai's house.
Because of the chaos of war, these people did not light lanterns at the gates, and Long Chen couldn't see the door plaque clearly.
"Why don't you go find the beautiful woman who was taking a bath just now and ask for directions?"
A reasonable idea came to Long Chen's mind.
"No, I'm taking a shower. I ran over to figure out what's going on."
Long Chen immediately rejected this idea.
"I'm just asking for directions. I don't mean any harm at all. That beauty should understand me."
Long Chen felt that the woman must be kind-hearted and wouldn't mind.
"No, if I watch her taking a bath, how will I get married in the future?"
Long Chen thought to himself while continuing to look forward.
"Thank you Sir Cheng for your hospitality."
Long Chen was sneaking along the roof when he suddenly heard a drunken voice.
Following the sound, I looked over and saw a chubby official arriving in the yard. A tall man said goodbye to him.
"Your Majesty, you are too polite. Please forgive me for any lack of hospitality."
The man smiled and said to the official.
"The reception given by Sir Cheng is very good. Next time, Sir Cheng will invite you to visit me at my humble residence."
The official smiled and said to the man.
"Definitely come."
The man escorted the official out of the house.
After the official left, the man returned to his room.
There cannot be two temple chiefs here, so this man is Tu Maocai, the chief minister of Dali Temple.
Long Chen slowly squatted down and carefully uncovered a piece of tile.
Jinling has a Jiangnan climate, and the roof tiles are not heavy.
Taking away a piece of tile, Long Chen saw several servants cleaning up the messy desk.
There were still some residues of the leftover fish, which the servants secretly ate.
The ancients lived a very hard life. The servants in the official's house could not eat meat even once a year.
The unwanted residue left behind is also delicious to them.
Long Chen slowly put the tiles in place, then walked to where the bedroom was probably, and then slowly uncovered a piece of tile.
Through the gap, Long Chen saw Tu Maocai.
Tu Maocai is very good-looking. Among middle-aged officials, he is considered a handsome man.
The Tu family has good genes. Concubine Tu has a good figure, good skin, and good looks, which is why she was favored by Li Chengdao.
Her brother was also born well.
A good-looking concubine helped Tu Maocai take off his coat.
"Master drank too much again."
The concubine said distressedly.
Tu Maocai smiled and hugged the concubine, and peeled off the concubine in two or two times, leaving only a pink bellyband.
“It’s beautiful to look at flowers when you’re drunk.”
Tu Maocai hugged his concubine and went to bed. The concubine coquettishly catered to her.
"Master, do you want to take a fire pill?"
Huo Qing Dan is that kind of medicine.
Tu Maocai stood up and took out a bottle from the bedside cabinet, poured a dark red pill and swallowed it.
Tu Maocai started using the power of medicine...
Long Chen was watching from the perspective of God from the rooftop.
Even with the support of Huo Qing Dan, Tu Maocai's body was of no use and was purified within a few strokes.
Long Chen secretly laughed: It's useless to look at her, such a coquettish concubine, if it were me, I wouldn't be able to leave even for an hour.
"master..."
The concubine obviously still had more to say, her tone was complaining, but she didn't dare to say it clearly.
In ancient society, concubines were just objects, with the same status as donkeys and horses.
If she dared to express any dissatisfaction, Tu Maocai would kill her with one knife.
"I'm tired, please help me sleep."
Tu Maocai lay lazily.
Anyway, I'm done with it, it doesn't matter whether I have enough concubines or not.
The concubine got up and fetched water to wipe Tu Maocai's body, then helped Tu Maocai lie down, put down the mosquito net, and drove away the mosquitoes inside.
When he poured out the water and came back in, Tu Maocai was already fast asleep.
The concubine still didn't finish her thoughts and called softly: "Master..."
Seeing that Tu Maocai didn't respond, the concubine pushed again, but there was still no response.
The concubine then put on some clothes, blew out the candle, quietly went out and went to the side room.
Long Chen thought to himself: Could it be that this concubine stole a man?
Long Chen wanted to watch the excitement, so he followed quietly from the roof, and saw his concubine sneaking into a room.
Long Chen quietly walked across the roof, reached the top of the room, and uncovered a piece of tile.
On the bed in the room, a burly man picked up his concubine and got on the bed.
"Teacher, don't be so hasty, be careful if others hear..."
"Don't be afraid. I'm the guard of this house. If I make some noise, no one will care."
This instructor is a self-inflicted thief, even if he doesn't look after the house and the home, he also hooks up with Tu Maocai's woman, which shows no professional ethics at all.
The concubine tried her best to lower her voice and said, "That's good..."
Long Chen secretly laughed: It turned out that he had hooked up with the instructor who was looking after the home.
This instructor is too good. Someone sneaked into the mansion, but he was seducing his employer's concubine.
Long Chen did not continue to watch the excitement, but fell from the roof and entered Tu Maocai's room.
There was a smell of wine and rouge mixed together, and Long Chen couldn't help but raise his hand to slap in front of his nose.
Tu Maocai slept like a dead pig. Long Chen pointed his fingers at Tu Maocai's sleeping hole, then put him on his back and jumped up onto the roof.
Sneaking to the edge of the West City, Long Chen flew out of Jinling City while the defenders were not paying attention.
Arriving outside the city, Long Chen found an abandoned house and put Tu Maocai down.
Although I have been away for a few years, the surroundings have not changed much.
This house was originally used by Long Chen to rest while hunting, but unexpectedly it had not collapsed yet.
Long Chen closed the doors and windows, lit a fire, and brought in a bucket of cold water from outside.
Long Chen opened the acupuncture points, picked up the cold water, and poured it on Tu Maocai.
