Regent, the princess you found is a treasure

Chapter 161 The Luo Family Father and Son Have Problems

Near noon, the sun was high in the sky, casting its blazing light.

Xuan Moyin and Su Luoxue finally saw the city gate of Luocheng from afar.

There were a lot of people coming in and out of the city gate. Because it was broad daylight, it was not convenient for Xuan Moyin to use light skills to enter the city, so he walked towards the city gate with Su Luoxue.

Although Xuan Moyin's 50,000 private soldiers were stationed on the fiefdom, they were actually stationed in a military camp dozens of miles away from Luocheng City. This military camp was managed independently and was not closely connected with the city.

Recalling ten years ago, Xuan Moyin was in the military camp and had no time to visit his fiefdom, so he entrusted Lord Luo, who was the prefect of Luocheng at the time, to temporarily serve as the city lord and be responsible for managing Luocheng.

Later, due to various reasons, he never had time to come here, until today when he brought Su Luoxue with him, and it was also the first time he came here.

Because he didn't want to be too conspicuous, Xuan Moyin dressed up as an ordinary businessman, while Su Luoxue disguised herself as a man and became Xuan Moyin's little follower.

The city gate is very busy, with many people entering and leaving the city. The soldiers responsible for guarding the city gate will check each one before letting them in.

When it was Xuan Moyin and Su Luoxue's turn, a small leader who was sitting in the shade at the foot of the city gate wall came over to see them, master and servant, dressed in merchant armor.

The little leader came over and asked the soldier to check on the others. He looked Xuan Moyin up and down and asked, "Are you doing business?"

"Yes." Xuan Moyin looked at the little leader and responded coldly.

He didn't want to pay any attention to this person at first, but Su Luoxue secretly poked him with her hand from behind.

"First time in Ying'an Mansion?"

"Yes, for the first time."

"What's the business?"

Xuan Moyin was a little annoyed by this little leader who kept asking questions. Just when he was about to lose his temper, he saw Su Luoxue holding a few pieces of silver in her hand. She smiled and quickly stuffed the silver into the little leader's hand, saying, "Sir, do some medicinal materials business, a small business."

The little leader clenched his hands, weighed them, nodded with some satisfaction, and said: "Okay, let's go."

As for the little leader's blatant behavior of taking money, Xuan Moyin was about to reprimand him, but Su Luoxue quickly pulled him forward and deliberately said, "Master, when you come out, the master asked me to take good care of you."

After dragging the man to a place farther away from the city gate, Xuan Moyin said angrily: "He is blackmailing the dead people. You shouldn't give him money."

"Yes, yes, yes, this shouldn't be done. People like this should be dealt with by our subordinates. Then where are we going now?" Su Luoxue looked at Xuan Moyin who was being serious, and asked him coaxingly.

"I'm hungry. Why don't we find a place to eat first?" Xuan Moyin said.

"it is good."

The two of them walked towards the city, one in front and the other behind. Along the way, there were indeed many vendors on both sides of the street. There were many people on the street, and it was lively. However, Su Luoxue always felt that something was missing, but she couldn't put her finger on it.

The two of them walked and strolled, in no hurry.

"Wontons, wontons, ten cents a bowl."

"It's time for the Tanghulu. Fresh Tanghulu, sweet and fragrant Tanghulu. One cent for a bunch."

"Hey, don't miss it if you pass by..."

"Selling the knife... Selling the knife..."

Various hawking sounds and shouting can be heard one after another on the street.

Until they arrived in front of a two-story restaurant, "This is it." Xuan Moyin asked.

Su Luoxue took a look at the restaurant. It looked quite grand in decoration from the outside.

The waiter at the door came over and said, "Sir, you have a good eye. This restaurant is the best restaurant in Ying'an Mansion. Please come in..."

Su Luoxue glanced at the waiter and said, "Lead the way."

As she spoke, she walked inside, and Xuan Moyin followed behind her.

How could a servant walk in front of his master? The waiter was a little surprised, but it was not his business.

He quickly stepped forward to lead the way, "Sir, would you like the private room or the lobby?"

"Lobby."

"Elegant room."

Su Luoxue and Xuan Moyin answered at the same time.

But when he heard Su Luoxue say the lobby, Xuan Moyin quickly changed his words and said "the lobby."

"Two people in the lobby..." the waiter called and brought Xuan Moyin and Su Luoxue to a seat near the window.

Xuan Moyin and Su Luoxue sat down, and two men drinking sat at the table behind them.

Seeing them sit down, the two men looked at them deliberately. It might be the first time they saw servants dare to sit and eat with their masters. However, they only looked at them once and then shifted their gaze away and continued their topic.

"I heard that the daughter of tailor Zhang was thrown out yesterday. She was already dead when she was thrown out. Twenty taels of silver were thrown away and the matter was settled." A man said in a low voice.

"Alas, all the families in this city with daughters who have places to go have left. Even if they go to the countryside to live with relatives or marry an honest farmer, it is better than being ruined by the Luo family father and son." Another person also whispered.

"Who said it wasn't? It's a sin! But he is the city lord. The Luo family father and son said that in Luocheng, they are the sky, and anyone who dares not listen to them must die." The voices of the two people were getting smaller and smaller.

But Xuan Moyin's internal strength was so strong that he could hear clearly even the quietest voices of the two people.

He listened to the conversation between the two drinking men, and the tea bowl in his hand was unconsciously clenched tightly.

Suddenly, there was a "crack" sound and the tea bowl broke into pieces. The waiter just came over to serve the dishes and was shocked to see this.

"Sir, are you okay?"

"Oh, he's fine, he's fine." Su Luoxue looked at Xuan Moyin's loss of composure and quickly said perfunctorily to the waiter.

When the waiter put the dishes on the table, he inadvertently met Xuan Moyin's murderous eyes and was so scared that he almost dropped the tray in his hand.

“Sir, your dishes are all here. Please enjoy your meal.” The waiter stammered and went downstairs in a hurry.

The two people drinking at the table seemed to feel the strong low pressure as well. They finished the wine in their glasses in one gulp and left in a hurry.

"This is outrageous! If what these two people said is true, then it would not be too much to cut the Luo father and son into pieces." Xuan Moyin said in a low voice with gritted teeth.

"Don't be anxious. If they really do something immoral, I will be the first to kill them." Su Luoxue said.

At this moment, she suddenly remembered that something was wrong when she was walking on the street just now.

Although the street was busy and crowded, there were no young girls.

Su Luoxue told Xuan Moyin about her discovery, and Xuan Moyin suddenly realized it. He looked out the window at the street and found that even if a woman passed by occasionally, she would lower her head and walk away in a hurry.

"It seems that this Luo family father and son need to be investigated thoroughly." Xuan Moyin said.

"Okay, let's find an inn to stay in first and then make plans." Su Luoxue said.
