Chapter 98 Sneaking out of the palace at night

Only then did the soldier see clearly that it was Zhu Bai: "Your Highness, it's not time to open the palace gate yet."

Zhu Bai pointed at the gold medal: "Of course I know that the time has not come yet. If the time comes, do I still need to pay for this? I have a secret mission. If you dare to wake others up, I will kill you!"

Open the door!"

The soldier whispered: "Didn't the rich and noble father-in-law follow His Highness?"

Zhu Bai pretended to be impatient and said, "I already said it was a secret mission, so of course I can't take him with me."

Lao Zhu said that without his order, whoever opens the palace door during the closing time will die!

But what Zhu Bai is holding now is the sign "It's like I'm here in person". In other words, it's as if Lao Zhu came himself.

It's like stabbing your own shield with your own spear.

The soldier was completely confused and didn't know what to do. He bowed to Zhu Bai and said, "Please, Your Highness, let the villain go."

Zhu Bai said: "Don't worry, I will be back when the palace door opens. Only God knows about this matter. You know it and I know it."

The soldier said: "What if you don't come back?"

Zhu Bai said: "There is no chance. If I really didn't come back, just say that I used the gold medal to force you to hand over the key and open the door. Do you want to be killed by me now, or cooperate with me?

Choose yourself.”

The soldier hesitated for a long time and could only open the door and whispered to Zhu Bai: "Your Highness must come back on time."

Zhu Bai waved his hand, rode his bicycle to the imperial city gate, followed the same pattern, forced the soldier to open the door, and then walked towards the central city in the dark.

Tonight happens to be the fifteenth day, and the moon is as full as a disk.

The silent streets were immersed in the watery moonlight.

It was even quieter than at midnight, because even the thieves were asleep, and the troops had completed their last patrol, waiting for the curfew to end.

Zhu Bai walked along the street alone, stopping after a few steps and pricking up his ears to listen.

If there is a real deal, there will still be bargaining sounds no matter how careful you are.

No……

After walking around Yingtian City, the watchmen over there have come out to play gongs: "On the fifth watch day, the night ban is on, go to bed early and get up early."

Zhu Bai did not dare to delay any longer and rode back to the palace.

When the soldiers guarding the two gates saw that Zhu Bai had returned, they all relieved their worries and bowed continuously: "Oh, Your Highness, you are back."

Zhu Bai each gave a small piece of broken silver: "I'm sorry, I made you feel frightened."

He quietly returned to the palace, and as soon as he lay down, Fugui and the others got up, and then the courtyard started to get lively.

Zhu Bai told him last night that he would get up late in the morning and ask Fugui and the others not to disturb him.

So Fugui and the others do everything lightly outside.

Zhu Bai yawned and thought vaguely: There is no place for bulk cargo trading. Could it be that I didn't go there early enough?

Well, I'll go there at three o'clock tomorrow morning.

----

For several days in a row, Zhu Bai went out at night, patrolled around, and then came back.

Every night I go out two minutes earlier than the night before.

Still found nothing.

Tonight, he went out at the second watch. When he came back, the two guards who guarded the door only bowed to him: "Your Highness, from tomorrow onwards, it will not be us keeping watch. Don't come, otherwise the secret will be exposed if someone changes by then."

.Please spare the little one."

Zhu Bai himself pursed his lips: This won't work...

If it had been any earlier, Fugui and the others would have gone out before Fugui and the others had gone to bed, and he would have been exposed.

But I couldn’t find the trading location even after all the effort. I was really unwilling to do so.

What is actually happening?

Zhu Bai couldn't understand and kept thinking about this problem in his dreams.

I vaguely heard Zhu Di talking outside.

"Where is King Xiang?"

"Back to His Royal Highness King Yan, His Royal Highness King Xiang is still sleeping."

"Hey, why are you so honest these days?"

Zhu Bai sat up and said, "I'm up."

Fugui and others hurriedly came in to help Zhu Bai wash up.

Zhu Di also came in and asked Zhu Bai, "What's wrong with my twelfth brother?"

The people in the palace reported that Zhu Bai went to bed right after dinner for several days and did not get up until midnight.

With Zhu Bai's monkey-like temper, he finally got a few days off. Shouldn't he work hard and destroy all the fish in the lake and the birds in the trees?

Zhu Bai smiled and said, "Don't worry, fourth brother, I'm fine. I just want to take a nap."

Zhu Di said: "I am not patrolling the city today. I plan to go to Shangyi Bureau to watch the theater troupe perform the wedding day play. I thought you might be bored, so I asked you to come with me."

As soon as Zhu Bai heard that there was a show to watch, his men moved quickly. After finishing breakfast in two or three mouths, he kept saying to Zhu Di: "Let's go, let's go."

Zhu Di couldn't laugh or cry: "There's no need to be so anxious. Anyway, they won't start if I don't go."

-----

Zhu Bai came with great enthusiasm, expecting to see a stage of beauties dancing in cool clothes.

As a result, those women were just more delicate and delicate than ordinary people, and they were not worth mentioning.

The dramas they acted were all about loyalty, filial piety, friends, father, loving son and filial piety, which were as boring as those Confucian dramas designated by Lao Zhu.

The more he watched, the more irritated he became, so he quietly got up and sneaked next door to play.

Next door, the Bell and Drum Department was actually practicing music. However, they only played flutes, guqins, pipas, flutes, etc., which were relatively cold, so they were completely drowned out by the sound of gongs, drums, suonas and beats played by the opera troupe over there.

A thought suddenly flashed through Zhu Bai's mind: Is there a possibility? Those transactions were not carried out in the middle of the night, but in the yard next door to a particularly noisy place.

It's just that the sound was completely covered, and you couldn't find it unless you entered the yard.

So he may have passed by many times without knowing it.

Zhu Di saw that Zhu Bai went to the next door and didn't come back for a long time, so he followed him over, and then saw Zhu Bai standing there in a daze.

Zhu Di asked: "What's wrong?"

Zhu Bai blinked and asked Zhu Di: "Fourth brother, tell me, is there any place in the city that is particularly noisy?"

Zhu Di frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Blacksmith shop?"

Zhu Bai shook his head: "No, no, no. It needs to be very loud for a period of time, or it must be noisy all day long."

Zhu Di said: "Restaurant? Teahouse?"

You don’t have to carry the goods with you, and no one will be suspicious when you come out of the restaurant after doing the transaction in the backyard of the restaurant.

Zhu Bai nodded: "Yes, yes, when is the restaurant most crowded."

Zhu Di: "Noon time."

Zhu Bai: "Where is the biggest hotel in Yingtian City?"

"I don't know about this. I seldom go out to eat." Zhu Di frowned, "But I will definitely know if I ask Third Brother. Third Brother eats out most often."

Zhu Fan's principal concubine was the eldest daughter of Yongping Hou Xie Cheng.

Xie Cheng was also a famous general who founded the country and received numerous awards. Naturally, he would not treat his daughter badly and would send some silver coins and items into the palace from time to time.

Zhu Fan naturally had the spare money to spend his time in style.

Lao Zhu is really very shrewd. His daughters-in-law are all the daughters of these heroes. They reward him here and there, leaving his left hand to his right hand. In the end, it is the meat in his own pot.

Zhu Bai waved his hand to Zhu Di: "Fourth brother, I'm going to go play with third brother, so I won't accompany you for now."

Then, regardless of what Zhu Di said, he just ran away.

Zhu Di shook his head helplessly: "Thankfully, my father was worried that you would get bored and asked me to bring you to the theater, but you ended up jumping up and down."

Lao Zhu's original words are: If Zhu Bai is quiet, he will become a monster because he is sick.
