Chapter 736： Yu Man Lou Ladies

As the night was getting dark, Chu Nanzhi led Sang Qi out of the mansion quietly.

Sang Qi carefully looked around in the carriage, turned through several streets and alleys, and drew out the two spies following him. After solving the problem, she stopped the carriage in front of a restaurant not far from Chaoguangmen.

Although it was night, the curfew in the city was much more relaxed than before and after the New Year's Eve. The wine shop was full of drinkers coming and going, and it was very lively.

This Yumanlou, which is famous all over the capital, was originally a romantic place to receive scholars and literati. Chu Nanzhi led Sang Qi in grandiosely, which surprised the old bustard of the restaurant.

Chu Nanzhi took out a thick stack of banknotes from her bosom and handed them to the old bustard. The old bustard stared blankly, and the eyes full of disdain immediately changed to one full of enthusiasm.

I just felt that these two young ladies must have different hobbies from ordinary people, so they hurriedly took the bank notes, and greeted them with a smile: "What is the order of the two young ladies today, I, Yumanlou, are the most beautiful girls in the capital. The top ones are guaranteed to serve the lady properly."

Chu Nanzhi looked at the bustard and a group of women with heavy make-up in front of her, and pulled the dull-faced Sang Qi, just smiled lightly: "Today, the two of us sisters just want to find a clean place to drink and greet, and we don't want to be seen by others." Excuse me, please trouble the madam to prepare a good elegant room for me, and serve all the best wine and dishes in the restaurant."

The bustard glanced at the bank note in her hand, and then at the woman beside her. She was blond and blue-eyed, obviously not from her country.

Although I have heard some interesting stories about women, the petite woman among the two is obviously pregnant, and I really can't figure out what the two of them are thinking. It is really unheard of to spend thousands of taels in the romantic place for a tryst.

Seeing how intimate the two are, I don't know who the child in the womb is.

But for the sake of so much money, the bustard didn't dare to ask any more questions, and hurriedly asked people to tidy up the best elegant room. When the bustard brought the food and wine, Chu Nanzhi immediately locked the door tightly.

Looking at this scene, Sang Qi was so frightened that her little heart was beating wildly, and she asked uncomfortably: "What is the master doing, if the master knows that the servants come to Yumanlou with the master to eat flower wine, he I have to take the life of my servant."

Chu Nanzhi forced her to sit down, smiled and said: "Today you can drink in this room without worry, but there is one thing, I can't ask the oiran of this restaurant to accompany you, anyone who comes to call the door, You ignore it."

Sang Qi was even more puzzled: "Could it be that the master has other arrangements?"

"You don't need to ask more."

Chu Nanzhi walked to the window while returning to her, and pushed open the willow window to observe the situation outside.

Looking carefully, I saw a carriage slowly approaching from the night and parked at a secluded street corner opposite Honglu Temple.

She told Sang Qi who was still uncomfortable: "Remember, if Bengong doesn't come back, you are not allowed to go anywhere."

Before Sang Qi could ask further questions, she saw Chu Nanzhi's figure flipping out of the window swiftly. Seeing her flustered for a while, she hurried to the window, followed the direction she flipped out, and vaguely saw a A familiar figure.

This person is none other than Chen Chuan, the servant in front of the master.

She seemed to understand something, quickly closed the window, sat back at the table and began to drink and eat calmly.

Although there is no girl to accompany her, when she thinks of the thousands of taels of silver that the master has thrown away, she feels distressed, and she has to eat and drink back today.

Chu Nanzhi fell from the window of Yumanlou, and Chen Chuan hurried over to bring her to the ground smoothly.

Looking at the carriage parked in the darkness not far away, Chu Nanzhi asked in a low voice, "Has Prince Xie come out?"

Chen Chuan responded lightly, and led her to the carriage, and saw Xie Jingchen lift the curtain, and a handsome face appeared inside.

"Small"

Xie Jingchen was about to speak out, but Chu Nanzhi hissed lightly at him, glanced at the man driving the carriage, with a serious face, very displeased.

"What did Princess Pingning invite my Highness to come out in the middle of the night?"

The groom asked in a low voice.

Hearing the sound, Chu Nanzhi recognized that it was Uncle Xie Liu, and didn't bother to explain to him, led Chen Chuan straight into the spacious carriage, and greeted with a smile: "If Uncle Xie wants to know, drive the carriage out of the city, wait I'll let you know when I get there."

"I won't listen to you anymore, you still want to cheat my highness."

Uncle Sixth Xie held his horsewhip tightly, and turned his head arrogantly.

"Since Sixth Uncle Xie didn't want to listen to me, why did he obediently follow Captain Chen out of the posthouse?"

Chu Nanzhi asked with a smile.

Both Xie Jingchen and the Bai Yu delegation knew that the current situation was not good. At this time, Princess Pingning must have come to discuss something, so they quickly ordered Uncle Xie: "Uncle Liu, drive out of the city."

Uncle Sixth Xie felt helpless and had no choice but to lightly drink the horse and head towards Chaoguangmen.

In the carriage, besides Xie Jingchen, there was also Li Shiyao, the daughter of Li Nanfu, Bai Yu's prime minister.

She was still jealous of Chu Nanzhi's last suggestion that the court should put Bai Yu's mission under house arrest. When she saw Chu Nanzhi sitting in the carriage, she immediately lost her face, and snorted coldly, "Princess Pingning really knows how to step on the ground." The shoulders of others are climbing up, so the suggestion to keep my prince as a hostage this time must be your clever trick, right?"

"Miss Li really thinks highly of me."

Chu Nanzhi also shook her head disdainfully: "Aren't I shooting myself in the foot like this? Right now, Pingning Prefecture needs a stable and harmonious situation, so why should I make troubles for both countries unhappy?"

Knowing that she had complaints about Xie Jingchen's focus on herself, she didn't bother to pay attention to her provocation at this time.

Xie Jingchen stopped Li Shiyao who still wanted to confide in her bitterness, looked at Chu Nanzhi earnestly, and said with a gentle smile: "Princess Xiaoping Ning, what advice does Princess Ning have for leading me out of the city so late, I'm afraid it will attract unnecessary trouble for you." trouble."

"I don't need to thank the prince for your trouble."

Chu Nanzhi leaned on the inner wall of the carriage, and said with a comfortable expression: "Since I came to Beijing, I haven't had time to have a good conversation with Prince Xie. It just so happens that today is the ninth day. I want to invite Prince Xie to a place."

"What trick are you trying to do?"

Li Shiyao asked anxiously.

Xie Jingchen glared at her gloomyly, and immediately agreed with a smile: "That would be the best, as you please."

Seeing that he did not refute, Chu Nanzhi nodded happily.

In front of Chaoguang Gate, the general on duty stopped the carriage, and only opened the curtain to look inside the carriage. When he saw Chu Nanzhi's figure, he pretended to be calm and hurriedly put down the curtain, and raised his hand towards the soldiers. With a wave: "There is no one else in the car, let it go."

Xie Jingchen and Li Shiyao were dumbfounded, they looked at each other for a long time, and when the carriage left the city gate, Xie Jingchen asked curiously: "Xiao Zhizhi has great powers, and she is so familiar with the guard at Chaoguang Gate."

"It's not that I'm supernatural."

Chu Nanzhi looked at him and let out a long sigh: "It's just that there are people in Jingling City who don't want Prince Xie to make mistakes."
