The crazy daily life of the mistress

Chapter 86 People’s hearts are not as old as they used to be

Jia informed Zhan Shixuan of the unusual happenings in the governor's mansion early in the morning.

Zhan Shixuan felt relieved when he knew that Liu Wei was not dead.

He knew that as long as he didn't visit Liu Wei openly, Liu Wei would be safe for the time being.

However, Zhan Shixuan was still worried. He knew that the situation in the governor's mansion was unpredictable and Liu Wei was still in danger. He decided to secretly send someone to protect Liu Wei and keep a close eye on every move of the governor's mansion.

At the same time, Zhan Shixuan was also thinking about how to solve this dilemma.

He knew very well that the officialdom was like a battlefield, and the slightest carelessness could lead to eternal damnation.

So, he began to plan an elaborate layout, trying to reverse the situation, ensure Liu Wei's safety and expose Hu Yu's conspiracy.

The most effective way at the moment is to remove the firewood from under the cauldron and capture the leader first!

Zhan Shixuan said to Zhan Shijun with a firm look, "I have something important to do before dawn. You cover for me."

Zhan Shijun looked nervous. Ever since the two brothers entered the military camp, they have always been inseparable, going in and out together.

Zhan Shijun couldn't help feeling a little worried as Zhan Shixuan was going to leave him behind and act alone this time.

He asked nervously, "Brother, what exactly are you going to do?"

Zhan Shixuan didn't want Zhan Shijun to go into danger with him.

He said earnestly: "There are some things you don't need to know. The less you know, the safer you are. You just need to remember to protect yourself."

Zhan Shijun looked at Zhan Shixuan, his eyes revealing concern and anxiety for his brother.

He knew Zhan Shixuan's character very well and knew that once he made a decision, he would not change it.

But he also understood that Zhan Shixuan must have his reasons for doing this.

Zhan Shixuan patted Zhan Shijun on the shoulder and gave him a firm look, signaling him not to worry about himself.

Zhan Shijun nodded. Although he still had doubts in his heart, he chose to believe his elder brother.

Zhan Shixuan turned and left, his steps firm and resolute. Zhan Shijun looked at his back and prayed silently in his heart, hoping that his elder brother could return safely.

When Zhan Shixuan arrived at the city gate, the sky was just beginning to brighten.

The guards at the city gate had just come out to stand guard, and the gate slowly opened. The old bronze door made a buzzing sound as the guards pushed it, as if it would fall down at any time. The people in the queue felt panicked when they heard the sound.

The world is in turmoil, and neighboring countries often come to plunder. Now it is the spring ploughing season, and they risk their lives to go out, either to buy some seeds or to sell some seeds, just to make a living.

Zhan Shixuan first bought a set of mountain folk clothes from a mountain folk's home, and then deliberately painted his face black and made his hair dirty and messy. In this way, he looked exactly like a real hunter.

The most eye-catching things are the rabbits in his hands. Anyone who sees them will not doubt that his identity is fake.

He quietly followed the people in the queue, feeling anxious. Everyone was paying money and waiting to enter the city. The rules for entering the city were simple: everyone had to pay three cents.

Zhan Shixuan pretended to be anxious and touched his body again and again. After a long time, he only found two cents.

His face turned pale and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

The guard looked dissatisfied and shouted, "If you don't have money, don't block the road! Get out of the way and let others go first!"

Zhan Shixuan held the rabbit tightly, his body trembling slightly. He imitated the common people and begged, "Sir, please have mercy on me. I will sell this rabbit in the city and give you the money. Otherwise, remember me, I will definitely give you the money when I leave the city."

There was a hint of sob in his voice and his eyes were full of pleading and helplessness.

The guard looked at the rabbit in Zhan Shixuan's hand coldly, rolled his eyes, and said unmovedly: "No! Don't even think about entering the city if you don't have a penny!"

Zhan Shixuan felt a sharp pain in his heart. He had worked so hard to raise this rabbit and had hoped to sell it for a good price, but now it was only worth a penny. This huge gap made him feel heartbroken, but he was powerless.
