At noon, a hempen-clothed coachman drove a very ordinary carriage and turned and turned into a small courtyard at the southern side of the city. After the carriage stopped, the carriage driver opened the curtain and out came a beautiful middle-aged woman with fair skin and light blue eyes. When she saw the familiar figure standing in front of the gate, her tears fell.

"Mother!" Yan Rou's eyes were filled with tears, as she threw herself onto the ground and kneeled, "Your son is unfilial and has scared your mother."

"New home?" Hu Nuo did not walk in. Instead, she looked at the exquisite small courtyard in front of him and the unfamiliar young man who was standing in front of the door.

This youth's skin was black, his eyebrows were raised high, it was Gongsun Xu, and he smiled gently at Hu Nuo.

Yan Rou said gratefully: "Mother, this courtyard is the new home that the Young Marquis has gifted us."

"Young duke?" Hu Nuo was even more confused.

Yan Rou looked at Gongsun Xu and said: "This is the Little Marquis Lord, he was also the one who sent someone to save Mother."

Gongsun Xu walked forward, cupped his hands, and said: "This humble one is Gongsun Xu, greetings Madam Hu Nuo."

"Little woman, you can't afford it!" Hu Nuo was shocked, she quickly kneeled down and returned the greeting.

"Brother Yan, quickly help your mother up." Gongsun Xu supported them and took out a few pieces of paper from his sleeves to give to Yan Rou, "This is the room agreement and the indenture contract given by the servants, Brother Yan, please accept them, I will not disturb the mother and son conversation, and will take my leave."

Yan Rou bowed as she received the room deed, and watched Gongsun Xu disappear around the corner of the street.

"My son, this young duke seems to be a great man!" Hu Nuo sighed and suddenly started sobbing.

"Mom, why is that?" Yan Rou asked in panic.

Hu Nuo's face was sorrowful. She patted Yan Rou's arm and sighed, "My son, I still don't understand you? If you hadn't decided to sell your life to the young duke, how could you have not thanked him just now? My son's life is no longer her own. As a mother, how can I not be sad! "

"Mother, the young duke is worthy of your son working hard!" That day, when he went to Changli, Yan Rou restrained his excitement and explained the things that happened in the recent days in a simple manner.

Hu Nuo was quiet for a moment, then laughed and changed the topic, "Hehe, I never thought that I would actually be able to live in a beautiful room that was built by a Chinese in this life."

"Mother, go in." Yan Rou heaved a sigh of relief and walked while supporting Hu Nuo: "Mother, it will be even better in the future!"

Gongsun Xu walked down the street with his hands behind his back, feeling extremely relaxed and happy. It had been three days since he came back from Changli. In order to settle the ten thousand strong soldiers he brought back, he had to busy himself until the sky went dark. Coincidentally, they sent a team to rescue Hu Nuo to bring him back, so he came over to greet them, and was prepared to stroll around the streets.

The shallow prairie was located outside of Chang City on the right side of the city and about one hundred and seventy kilometers northwest of the city. After Hu Nuo was kidnapped by her men, she had been imprisoned in a secret cave that was tens of kilometers away from the city so that she could use it to threaten Yan Rou at any time. During the battle with Luo Wang Po, Xianyu Fu lost an arm and was captured. His emotions crumbled immediately and he would cooperate with no matter what, hence the people Gongsun Xu sent over were able to successfully save Hu Nuo.

This was the second time Gongsun Xu had been out walking on the streets since he was reborn. The last time was when Yuan Lu came, and he was surrounded by a group of people walking around on the streets. This time, he didn't bring a single person with him. He only wanted to take a walk around and experience the life on the market in Han Dynasty.

The north of Ji County City was an army camp, the west was a market, and the east was a residential area for the poor. There were many thatched huts there, which were also known as slums. As for the officials and merchants, as well as the citizens with slightly better families, they all lived in the south side of the city.

Gongsun Xu did not have any particular goal in this situation, he was only strolling and doing it, he realised that the better buildings had very big roofs, green brick and black tiles, wooden beams and arches, their decorations were bold and powerful, simple and unadorned. At this point of time, the market had not dispersed yet, and there were no loose players in the Gate of Fang. As a result, there were very few people on the streets to the south of the city.

Just as Gongsun Xu turned a corner, he suddenly heard someone call out softly from above: "Brother! Brother, please wait! "

Gongsun Xu raised his head and could not help but laugh. Behind the tall brick wall, there was a man around 20 years old with a big tree with dense branches beside him. It was obvious that he was climbing the wall on top of the tree. The man wore a long green robe and a black crown on his head. Both of his hands were placed on top of the wall and he didn't dare to move. His handsome face was filled with anxiety.

Gongsun Xu laughed: "Why don't you wait for Hei Hei Feng to act first?"

The man said sternly: "You are wrong, I am a good man, how can I be a gentleman? You should apologize to me. "

Gongsun Xu teased, "Since you aren't a gentleman, how can you just jump over the wall and leave?"

The man's face was filled with regret as he sighed, "Ai! I have miscalculated and was forced to jump over the wall! "

"Oh?" Gongsun Xu was taken aback, "Who coerced him? "Why didn't you inform the authorities?"

"Brother, you're wrong!" The man glared at Gongsun Xu, and arrogantly said: "You need to seek the assistance of the officials for such a small matter? Where does my face lie? "

"Oh, if that's the case, then please take care of your pride and slowly climb over the wall. I will take my leave now." Gongsun Xu turned around and left. At this moment, he suddenly thought about the matter of overturning the wall together in his previous life's education and couldn't help but want to tease this guy a bit. It wouldn't be too late to help him down after that. It was a pity that no one shouted, "Teacher is here, run!" Otherwise, it would have been more appropriate.

The man said anxiously, "Hold on! As the saying goes, helping others makes you happy. Doing good things every day is just a small matter. Why don't you lend a helping hand? This humble one will definitely reward you handsomely! " At this point, he paused as if he had made a difficult decision. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Always money, what do you think?"

Gongsun Xu pretended to be shocked and sighed: "Only with money? It's too little! "

"How much do you want?" The man asked with a sullen expression.

"How many do you have?" Gongsun Xu could not help but ask.

"Five or three hits!" As the man spoke, he hurriedly changed his words and pleaded, "Brother, I really can't go any further. I have to leave some money for the wine!"

Gongsun Xu blinked his eyes, and laughed: "Hehe, I am at a disadvantage, since it's three strokes, then let's do three strokes! "But I have a condition."

"What condition?" The man asked cautiously. He looked down at the money pouch on his waist and said firmly, "Other than increasing the money, everything else is fine!"

Gongsun Xu shook his head, "I won't pay! Sir, you only need to tell me the true reason for your escape through the wall. "

"This …" The man hesitated, a trace of shyness appearing on his face.

Just then, a clear female voice came from inside the wall. "Young Master Feng wants to climb over the wall and escape, catch him quickly! If anyone can catch that heartless person, I will give them five cents! "

The man turned his head and saw seven or eight gorgeous girls swarming towards him, carrying ropes and broomsticks. He gave a cry of fear and pushed off the tree with his feet. He pushed against the wall with both hands and somersaulted over.

Teacher did not come, but a bunch of girls came! Gongsun Xu jumped in fright, and quickly rushed forward and hugged the man, feeling extremely depressed in his heart, "F * ck, the first time I came to Great Han Dynasty, the one I hugged was actually a man!"

The man quickly regained his senses. He also felt that it was too shameful to be held by a man like this. Shameless, quickly use all your strength to try and get down.

Gongsun Xu immediately let go of his hands, and the man plopped down on his butt, wailing in pain. He crawled to his feet, pulled Gongsun Xu and shouted: "Run!"

Gongsun Xu didn't react in time as he followed the man and ran for no reason. This guy was wearing a wide robe and wide sleeves. Who would have thought that he would run so fast? The two of them quickly ran through several streets.

Only then did Gongsun Xu regain his senses, and stopped and shouted to the man who was still running: "Stop running, no one is chasing us!"

"He didn't catch up?" The man looked back and saw that there was no one around. He stopped and said while panting heavily, "Hehe, it's good that you didn't catch up to me! Sigh, I finally escaped a great calamity! "

Gongsun Xu asked in bewilderment, "Sir, are you not going to tell us what happened?"

The man clapped his hands and cried out, "Aiya, that's a long story! How about we find a place to drink and chat? "

Gongsun Xu saw that there was a three story restaurant in front of him, so he nodded and pointed to the signboard of the 'Drunken Moon Restaurant', and said: "Let's go there."

"Drunken Moon Restaurant!" The man looked up and his face changed. "Brother, can we move somewhere else?"

"Why?" Gongsun Xu did not understand.

The man said helplessly, "Brother, you don't know this, but the Drunken Moon Restaurant and the Sleeping Moon Tower are owned by one person. I really don't dare to go!"

"Sleeping Moon Restaurant?" Gongsun Xu was even more confused.

"It's a brothel behind the wall from before."

A brothel? Was it because of the Overlord Chicken that this fellow was being chased? Gongsun Xu was extremely gloomy, this fellow's temperament was definitely not ordinary, he did not expect his character to be so low grade!

"Brother, you misunderstand!" What a misunderstanding! This is definitely not what you think! " Seeing Gongsun Xu's expression, the man quickly tried to explain and then pointed to a small teahouse beside them. "Brother, let's sit over there and talk." After he finished speaking, he pulled Gongsun Xu along to sit down without any explanation.

This small teahouse was very small. Inside, there were three small tables, but there weren't any customers. Noticing that a customer had come to his door, the dark, skinny, and short shopkeeper hurried over to greet him.

"Bring me a pot of tea." The man instructed, then pulled Gongsun Xu to sit at the table in the innermost area.

The inn owner quickly came with a tray. While pouring tea, the man took the teapot and waved him off.

The man warmed the teacup, first poured a cup of tea for Gongsun Xu, and then poured a cup for himself. "May I know your esteemed name, brother?"

Gongsun Xu cupped his hands and replied, "This humble one is Sun Xunsheng. There is no need to hang your teeth for small matters like this."

Feng Xiao's face was filled with admiration, and said with a sigh: "This brother here has always been a warm-hearted person, but this one truly admires you. From a single glance, you can tell that you are a true hero who views money as dirt, a true hero! "

Gongsun Xu rolled his eyes, and laughed evilly: "Hehe, I can't say that I'm a warm-hearted person, but I'm helping you out on behalf of the three pieces of money."

Feng Xiao picked up his teacup and made a gesture of 'please', "Aiya, brother, it's so vulgar to open your mouth and drink tea first! "Drink your tea!"

This fellow actually wanted to renege on the debt? Gongsun Xu was overjoyed, but his face still showed respect as he said, "After finishing the tea, you still have to pay three cents. By the way, it's only right that you should pay for the tea. "

"Alright." Feng Xiao's face immediately fell, and he sighed: "This world is truly not the same, people's hearts are going down day after day."

"Alright, alright!" Gongsun Xu waved his hand and interrupted the other party's laments, then laughed: "I am just taking the money that I deserve, at least, isn't that better than you, the Overlord Chicken?"

"What does this mean?" Feng Xiao was confused and curious.

"We'll talk about this later," Gongsun Xu stroked his chin, and quickly changed the topic, "Please tell me why you jumped over the wall and left."

Feng Xiao sighed: "Alright, this is what happened."

After Gongsun Xu heard this, he stared at Feng Xiao in shock. He could not understand this fellow's actions at all, and for a moment, he wished that he could find a hammer to smash this fellow's head to see if it was filled with water.
