"Boss, the First Wife followed the Old Master into the palace early in the morning. Yesterday, the Sovereign King ordered for the First Wife to enter the palace to accompany Imperial Concubine Mu." Lian'er slowly came in and reported the news about the front courtyard to Chu Moxi.

"So it turns out that the Monarch ordered it. No wonder this fire was suddenly lit." Chu Mo Xi was originally quite curious, but logically speaking, before the First Madam could do such a thing, the First Madam shouldn't have made a move on the Third Madam in such a hurry.

So it was the Monarch's will! If one wanted to enter the palace, they would have to bring gifts. This also meant that they needed to open a warehouse.

"Lian'er, accompany me for a stroll." Chu Moxie patted Zhu Bajie on her shoulder and then beckoned to Lian'er.

"Boss, where are we going?" Lian'er pinched the few gold coins in her arms; she didn't know if there were enough gold coins.

Chu Moxi glanced at Lian'er's actions with a mysterious smile on her face, "Of course I'm going to earn some money!" To her, the Duke Chu Palace was not a place she would stay for long. If she wanted to leave, then she would need sufficient power and influence. Without power and influence, she needed to create.

"Alright." Lian'er had no doubts about her boss' words. If her boss said he wanted to make money, that was making money.

"Wait, let me put on my cloak first." Chu Moxi took out a black cloak from her storage ring and put it on. Other than the large bag on the outside, this cloak was no different from other people's cloaks.

The large bag on the cloak was one that was specially sewn by Lian'er to hold Zhu Bajie.

After wearing her cloak, Chu Moxie laughed as she threw the sleeping Zhu Bajie onto Lian'er's embrace. The latter immediately and carefully hugged her.

Zhu Bajie raised his lazy eyes and glanced at Lian'er before he went back to sleep. He had gotten used to Lian'er recently, especially since Lian'er called her Little Pig instead of Zhu Bajie like that woman did. Just for this reason, the pig was very satisfied.

Chu Mo Xi shrugged her shoulders in response to the pig's attitude. She leisurely walked out of the courtyard, and Lian'er immediately followed her.

Right now, the Duke's Mansion was under heavy security. Chu Moxi and Lian'er didn't go through the front door, but through a very remote side door. There were no guards outside this side door.

Chu Moxi and Lian'er circled around the Chu Clan's wall before finally arriving at the main road outside Duke Chu's residence. The two of them walked on the busy street one after the other.

Chu Moxi was wearing a cloak, yet Lian'er was following by her side. The rate at which this pair of oddities turned around on the main road was truly not low.

Lian'er was carefully hugging Zhu Bajie, so he didn't notice these gazes. But what about Chu Moxi? Ye Zichen directly ignored them.

"Lian'er, where is the place where the capital sells crystals?" Chu Moxi's eyes swept across the two sides of the street, searching for a store that sold beast crystals. She intended to exchange the crystals she obtained from killing spirit beasts in the forest outside the valley where Chenchen had brought her for gold coins so that her actions would be more convenient in the future.

"Beast crystal?" There are many beast crystal stores in the capital, but the Treasure school is the most fair place, and they buy all kinds of treasures. Boss, you want to buy beast crystals? " Lian'er pinched the gold coin in her bosom; her boss wanted to buy beast crystals, but there wasn't enough gold coins.

"Silly girl, I was just casually asking." Chu Moxi shrugged her shoulders. She would go straight to the Treasure Trading Pavilion later. On the surface, nothing happened.

"Let's go out on the street and see what we can earn." Chu Mo Xi's mind started to ponder about her plan. At this moment, she heard loud noises coming from the other side.

Where did this beggar come from?" "Dirty, almost dirtying our Miss's palanquin." "A harsh female voice rang out, and immediately after, a small, ragged beggar with a dirty face was knocked out of a pink palanquin by a group of guards.

The beggar was clearly very persistent. After being blasted out, he once again crawled under the palanquin.

At this moment, everyone was stunned. Was this beggar an idiot? Haven't you ever seen someone's palanquin fly from here? Is it courting death for someone to chase you away and then go over?

Many people shook their heads. Being a beggar was courting death.

"Why are all of you still standing there foolishly? Beat, beat mercilessly out of here, and scare the little miss, and see if you can take on this responsibility. " The servant girl stuck her hands on her waist and ordered arrogantly.

When the guard next to the palanquin heard the words of the servant girl, he immediately reached out to grab the beggar under the palanquin.

At this moment, the beggar was looking for something under the palanquin. When he saw what he was looking for under the palanquin, a smile appeared on his dirty face, and he happily extended his right hand to pick up the object. At this time, the guards had already drawn their swords and stabbed towards the beggar.

Chu Moxi's eyes stared unblinkingly at the beggar. At this moment, the beggar was happily picking up items and did not even notice that a few swords were already thrusting towards him.

As the sword drew closer, everyone could see that the beggar was bound to die by the hands of these guards. Some of them even looked away.

At this moment, Chu Moxi spoke, "What do you think life is under the hands of the Son of Heaven?" The voice was neither hot nor cold, but it successfully caused the guards to pause for a moment. The beggar had also succeeded in getting what he needed. When he turned around and saw the several swords that had stopped behind him, he knew what was going on. The corner of his mouth curved into a smile. He looked at Chu Moxi with a slightly confused expression, then rolled away from the palanquin.

At this moment, a voice came from within the carriage. "I don't need a market woman like you to care about the conduct of my Mu King's Manor." His tone was filled with arrogance and complacency.

"Truly a pitiful person from the Mu King's Manor. Even I, a womanizer, knows what being a person means, but the people from the Mu King's Manor don't. Tsk tsk tsk tsk …" There was a hint of mockery in Chu Moxi's words. Someone from the Mu King's Manor? Other than an identity, what else?

What's the difference between a brainless person and a brainless person like my father who was Li Gang?

"You … What kind of crime do you deserve for insulting the Mu Clan? " The woman inside rushed out in a huff. She wore a pink Li Na, a white peony Yan Luo dress, and a red belt around her waist. Her pretty face was currently the color of a pig's liver.

"What crime have I committed? What did this woman in the market say? " Chu Moxi didn't seem to be afraid at all as she looked at the young woman in front of her. Her temperament was that of a brainless woman who carried the title of 'Prince's Mansion'.

"You said that the people of the Mu King's Manor do not understand the meaning of being a person!" Mu Xuan pointed at the cloaked woman opposite her. Just the curve of her cloak made her jealous. He really was a shameful person, even wearing a cloak in broad daylight.

"Everyone heard it. So many people can testify!" "I did not say that. It was all said by this lady herself." Chu Moxi's eyes flashed with a light. She really didn't feel that there was any meaning in fighting this brainless guy.

"You …" At this moment, Mu Xuan's expression turned even uglier, regretting that she had said what she had just said.

"I wonder if Miss thinks I'm wrong?" Chu Moxi had always been a person who wouldn't forgive people, not to mention that this woman had even provoked her.

"You … "You …" Mu Xuan was once again rendered speechless by Chu Moxi.

At this moment, the surrounding people could no longer hold back their laughter.

Only then did Chu Moxi pout her lips and beckoned to the beggar, "Come here, today I, this woman from the market, saved your life, so I will use the rest of your life to be your slave."

With just this sentence, Chu Moxi had decided the life of a beggar as a servant.

The beggar raised his head and looked strangely at Chu Moxi. Was this woman being too conceited? Be a slave for the rest of his life?

"Perhaps, you would rather die under their swords. Then, just think of it as me saving a cat and a dog." Chu Mo Xi expressionlessly stomped away. In her eyes, if a man could not yield, then how could she continue to dress like that and fly around in the future?

When the surrounding people heard Chu Moxi's words, they were almost stupefied. Just now, she said that the people from the Mu King's Manor didn't know what a human was. Now, she can treat them as cats and dogs?

The beggar raised his head and followed Chu Moxi without any hesitation. If he couldn't die, then his death would mean that he had died for nothing.

Chu Moxi and the others left confidently, leaving the Mu Clan's palanquin behind to receive the criticism of the surrounding people.

Mu Xuan stood there, her face alternating between green and white. Facing all the pointing fingers in the surroundings, she even wanted to find a hole to hide in.

"Miss, are we still going to Princess Chang's Mansion?" The maid at the side cautiously asked Mu Xuan.

"Return to the manor!" Mu Xuan glared fiercely at the direction Chu Moxi and the rest had left in before she turned around and entered the carriage.

Hmph, market girl, I will definitely find you and teach you how to walk the human path of the Mu King's manor.

At this moment, Chu Moxi pulled Lian'er into a remote alley. She stopped and turned around to see the beggar staring at her.

The corner of her mouth hooked up into a smile, "Lian'er, bring him back. I will take a walk or two to see if there are any more cats."

When the beggar heard Chu Moxi's words, he almost vomited blood. This woman's mouth really wasn't ordinary poison!

"Yes, boss." Lian'er nodded and placed Zhu Bajie, who was in her embrace, into Chu Moxi's pocket. Then, she turned around and left with the beggar.

After they left, Chu Mo Xi slowly turned around and raised her head to look at the towering wall. She took a deep breath and headed towards the direction of the alleyway's entrance.

She should go to the Treasure school now! I wonder what the price of this beast crystal is …
