Li Xiaoyao was a little surprised, and said in amazement: "Only allowed to enter but not allowed to exit? How can there be such an absurd reason?"

A city man next to him said: "It can't be helped, the city of Yangzhou has been too uneasy recently, there are people stealing and destroying families everywhere."

Li Xiaoyao said: "Public security is not good. It's because your officials are incompetent. Everyone is forbidden to leave the city. Isn't this treating Yangzhou City as a big prison and shutting it all down?"

The face of the people in the city changed slightly, seeing Li Xiaoyao's unrestrained speech, he was afraid of getting into any trouble, so he walked away.

Seeing this, Li Xiaoyao stopped talking and went back to tell Li Fei about the situation.

Li Fei just nodded casually, not paying too much attention to it.

Li Xiaoyao naturally understood that if they wanted to leave the city, who could stop them?Of course he didn't have to pay attention to the notice.

"We're just passing by, don't worry about it, it's getting late, let's find a place to stay first!"

Li Xiaoyao had no objection, but Elder Shi and his party didn't care. As long as they could stay by Zhao Linger's side, everything else had nothing to do with them.

There are row upon row of shops on both sides of the road, such as knife sharpening shop, wine butcher shop, weapons shop, pawn shop, north and south goods, inn, all kinds of shops are full of people and busy.

After passing through several small hotels, Li Fei and others turned a blind eye. There are 30 of them, and such a small hotel cannot accommodate them.

After walking a few streets, I saw another notice on the wall.

"It is found that there is a group of female snitches who are thieves, lawless, stealing everywhere, and doing a lot of evil. This order is hereby issued. If there is a secret report and it is confirmed, a reward of 200 taels of silver will be rewarded."

Li Xiaoyao gasped, "Look, even women are committing crimes in Yangzhou City."

Lin Yueru echoed: "This is really special, I thought the female snitch only existed in the legends of the Tang Dynasty!"

Li Xiaoyao laughed and said, "I don't know if it's the sister-in-law's ability, or these female snitches' ability."

Lin Yueru smiled and said: "If there is a chance, maybe we can compete."

Zhao Ling'er pursed her lips and said with a smile: "If that female thief meets you two heroines, it will be really unlucky."

Li Xiaoyao said complacently: "That's natural."

Talking and laughing all the way forward, after walking not far, I saw the third notice.

"Yangzhou Taishou ordered a strict curfew, and the idlers are not allowed to walk at night. Those who violate it will be detained for three days, forty canings, and a fine of thirty taels of silver."

"Those who do not report to the criminals, those who hide the thief's love, will be fined 300 taels of silver, those who spit and defecate will be fined 20 taels of silver, those who obstruct official missions will be fined 100 taels of silver, and those who gather for gambling will be fined 300 taels of silver. People, fined ten taels of silver."

Everyone was speechless when they saw it, but even these trivial things that were bullshit were made into notices and posted, this Yangzhou prefect is really weird.

After walking around the street for a while, I finally found a suitable place to stay.

It was a very luxurious inn, standing in the busiest area in the middle of the market, and the people who came in and out were all rich and noble people in brocade clothes and satin.

This inn naturally suits Lin Yueru's wishes, but Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Ling'er don't care.

They are the kind of people who can rest well as long as they have a roof over their bodies.

A group of people entered the store and asked for four Tianzi shops in the upper room and three Datong shops downstairs.

Gu Fei has four upper rooms, one for Li Fei, one for Lin Yueru, one for Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Linger, and one for Elder Shi.

There are ten bunks in one Datong shop, and 25 people in three rooms are very comfortable.

After arranging the accommodation, Li Fei took the initiative to order a few banquets on the big tables and greeted everyone to eat.

This made Elder Shi and the Miao people very satisfied. Although they were not short of money, Li Fei's attitude made them feel at ease.

When the food and wine were served, the number of people in the inn gradually increased, and the conversation of several wealthy businessmen not far away attracted their attention.

"The female snitch has been too rampant recently. I heard that all the things she stole are priceless. She doesn't want the inferior ones. It makes many people's family treasures disappear overnight. It's really worrying."

Another person heard the words and said indignantly: "The governor of Yangzhou is incompetent and stupid, so it's no wonder that he can't build up his power. There is no one to intimidate the Xiaoxiao boys. Why isn't the law and order deteriorating day by day?"

Another person sighed: "Ah... the eunuch is incompetent, and his subordinates are full of flatterers. They don't have half of them to use. It's hard to make a difference."

"That's right, if you don't catch the thieves well, and set so many bans, is the prefect going to deal with the common people, or the snitches?"

What the few wealthy businessmen talked about was full of the horror of snitches and the evil state of the government.

It can be seen that these are the two major hatreds of the residents of Yangzhou City, and the harm to the people may be no less than that of monsters.

Li Fei shook his head and said softly: "People always say that when troubled times are approaching, there must be evildoers. In fact, which troubled times are caused by evildoers? It doesn't all start with people."

Everyone was silent, this is a very sad thing, now there are signs of great chaos in the world, and the Guozuo of the Tang Dynasty has gone through prosperity and decline, and I am afraid that it will soon come to an end.

For Lin Yueru and others, this is just a possibility.

But Li Fei knew clearly that the Guo Zuo of Datang was only a few years older than Nanzhao.

Five years after the demise of the Nanzhao Kingdom, the Tang Dynasty also disappeared, and the land of the Central Plains began to enter a period of great division during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

Everyone didn't pay any attention to it. After the meal, Lin Yueru invited Zhao Linger to visit her daughter's shop. Zhao Linger went happily, and Elder Shi sent several Miao people to accompany her.

Li Fei and Li Xiaoyao went back to their rooms to rest.

The rich businessmen who were talking about the Snitch government at the table also left quickly, and one of the rich businessmen walked to his room with a green bag in his arms.

Just as he was passing by Li Xiaoyao's room, there was a sharp whistle from the window, and the rich merchant felt something extremely sharp and invisible passing by the tip of his nose.

The rich businessman stopped in his tracks immediately, and turned his head around stiffly to look around.

On the right window, there is a long and thin hole in the window paper, and on the left guardrail, there is also a transparent flat hole.

He immediately realized that if he had just taken a step faster, a hole would have been pierced through his body, and he immediately let out an exclamation.

The door was opened immediately, and Li Xiaoyao rushed out. He looked nervously at the wealthy businessman and asked, "Boss, are you alright?"

It was Li Xiaoyao who was pondering the sword tactics in the room before, and suddenly became a little fascinated, and unexpectedly aroused a sword energy unintentionally.

Hearing the exclamation sounded outside, he immediately came back to his senses, afraid of hurting someone by mistake, he hurried out to check.

The wealthy businessman looked at Li Xiaoyao fearfully, squeezed out a forced smile, and said, "It's okay, it's okay, hero... are you practicing martial arts?"

Li Xiaoyao nodded, and said apologetically, "I didn't pay attention for a moment and almost hurt you. I'm really sorry."

The rich businessman didn't dare to say anything more, instead he apologized and said with a smile: "Where is the hero's words, I am fine! What does the hero come to Yangzhou City for? To approve goods? Find a girl?"

Li Xiaoyao said: "No, not at all, just passing by."

The rich merchant said: "Oh, passing by! The house where the hero lives is the top one in Yangzhou. Even I can't bear to live in it. It's really a big deal."

"How many grades does your esteemed official worship? Where can you get a high grade? I also want to ask you to promote me a lot!"

Li Xiaoyao secretly smiled, my aunt opened a small inn in Yuhang, and she wants to promote you, at most she can teach you how to cook two dishes.

He didn't like this kind of people who would take advantage of each other and take advantage of the opportunity, so he just smiled and said: "It's good that you are not injured, I'm sorry, please leave."

Seeing this, the wealthy businessman was a little disappointed, and then looked at the hole shot out by the sword energy, and couldn't help feeling a little scared, so he hurried to his room.

Li Xiaoyao went back to his room and sat behind closed doors, continuing to study the sword art, but he didn't dare to make random gestures any more.

Time passed and the sky gradually darkened. Seeing that Zhao Ling'er hadn't come back, he walked out of the room, ready to go out and have a look.

There is a curfew in Yangzhou City, and if they don't come back, they will break the ban.

Although it is said that a chivalrous man breaks the ban with martial arts, there is no need to break such a ban on no name.

He walked along the corridor to the dining hall, and was about to go downstairs, but in the empty hall, there were three rascals surrounding a woman sitting at the table.

The woman's skin is fair and beautiful, her clothes are silky, and she seems to be intentionally or unintentionally revealing a small half of her fragrant shoulders.

Her silky hair was slanted, covering half of her face, and her eyes were so charming that anyone's heart would be moved when they saw it.

But the harassment of those three scoundrels obviously made her very impatient.

The three of them were all ugly, dressed in sloppy clothes, and said with a smile: "Little lady, you smell so good, let the uncle give you a hug!"

"Looking at your delicate skin and tender flesh, I really want to pinch it."

"Are you free tonight? Have a good time with my brothers?"

The woman's face was ugly, Li Xiaoyao was considering whether to go up to fight the injustice, she had already taken a sip from the wine glass with her small hands painted with bright red Kodan.

Then she filled another glass and said, "Do you want to drink?"

The three rascals were overjoyed and said, "Drink, drink, of course you have to drink."

"This cup has a little lady's fragrant lips on it, even if it's urine, I'll drink it."

"Me first, me first."

Even though the woman was cold and indifferent, she still showed an indescribable charm, and said: "Don't worry, everyone has a cup, everyone has a share."

Those three people were overjoyed, and their words became more obscene.

Seeing this, Li Xiaoyao laughed at himself, it turned out that he was willing to fight and suffer, but luckily I didn't meddle in my own business.

Just as she was about to leave, the woman stood up softly and looked at Li Xiaoyao.

Li Xiaoyao was startled, and nodded to her.

The woman just glanced at him, then turned around and walked towards the guest room, and then saw the three rascals fell to the ground one after another.

Li Xiaoyao was shocked, but the woman was not surprised, and continued walking as if nothing had happened.

Li Xiaoyao became curious and chased after her to find out her details.

I saw the woman step into a small wing room on the east side.

Li Xiaoyao was pacing outside, embarrassed to ask her what method she used to bring down the three rascals, but she didn't want to leave just like that.

The woman's figure was reflected on the window, as if she was doing makeup in front of the mirror, her movements were still so soft and charming, she was really charming all over her body.

At this moment, a nasal voice came out of the room, and said in an angry voice, "Those three idiots are just intoxicated, and they will wake up after sleeping there for an hour."

"Little brother, what else do you want to know?"

Li Xiaoyao blushed, and hurriedly said: "No...no, it's nothing, I'm sorry."

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly left, walked towards the gate, and said to himself: "You actually know that I am outside, so it can be seen that the charming woman is also hiding her secrets."

When he got outside the door, he looked at the twilight sky, turned his head and looked around, just in time to see Zhao Linger and Lin Yueru, arm in arm, coming back talking and laughing, followed by four Miao guards.

When the two girls returned to the inn, seeing Li Xiaoyao, Lin Yueru joked, "What? I haven't seen you for a while, and I miss your little Linger?"

Zhao Linger looked at Li Xiaoyao and smiled.

Li Xiaoyao scratched the back of his head embarrassingly, and said with a sneer, "I'm afraid you'll miss the time and break the curfew, so I'll take a look."

Accompanying the two girls back to the inn, when they passed by the place where the rascals were sleeping, Li Xiaoyao softly told them what happened just now.

The two women were also amazed, the so-called Daigo incense is a kind of exotic flower, the fragrance of the flower is intoxicating and powerful, it is no different from drinking strong wine after smelling it for a long time.

Its petals are dried and ground into powder, which becomes a powerful drug.

I don't know what the origin of that woman is, it must be the female snitch who provoked the prefect to seal the city, right?

Several people went to Li Fei's room and chatted for a while, Li Fei only said to wait and see what happened, without further discussion.

As the night darkened, everyone went back to their rooms to sleep.

Although Li Fei and Lin Yueru had a marriage contract and were a fiancé couple, they were not married after all, so naturally it was impossible for them to sleep together.

[230.Chapter 19 Special Hobbies]

"There are thieves..."

The silence and tranquility of the night were broken by this shrill scream.

Li Xiaoyao never knew that a man could make such a sharp and high-pitched cry.

"Woo... slap..."

Soon, the sound of breaking through the air and the crisp sound came one after another.

Li Xiaoyao put on his clothes quickly, explained to Ling'er beside him, and immediately rushed out of the room.

But in the corridor, Lin Yueru was already fighting with a man in black.

Because she is now the weakest one in the team, in order not to hold back, she didn't sleep at all at night, but replaced sleep with cultivation.

That's why she was able to react so quickly and block the man in black.

The man in black had a green bundle slung across his back, and his face was covered with a black scarf, making it impossible to see his face clearly.

But from her hairstyle and graceful figure, it is obvious that this is a woman.

Li Fei rested his arms folded, and stood at one end of the corridor to watch the battle, while at the other end stood Elder Shi, and all the Miao guards had also appeared downstairs.

They should have been ordered by Elder Shi, but they didn't rush up.
