The little sister is a troublemaker

Chapter 17 Arrival at Xiangyun City

Lucky Cloud City.

"Oh, we're finally in Xiangyun City. Junior Master, what on earth are we doing here?" Huo Yuanruo looked at the dilapidated gate of Xiangyun City and felt a little confused for a moment.

"Now that we are here, we might as well make the best of it. Anyway, Master has never missed a place." Li Mulan, who was in the carriage, looked at the city gate and unconsciously touched the scar at the corner of her eye, not knowing what she was thinking.

Chu Jie was also looking at the city gate at this moment. This was Xiangyun City, and it looked... very dilapidated. According to the investigation, the person he was looking for was in this place, and he didn't know how he had been doing over the years. It shouldn't be good, after all... Hey, it took him three days to get here. If he really had to walk by himself, let alone six days, he wouldn't be able to get there even if he took two more six days.

He looked at Li Mulan with gratitude. He would remember this favor.

The guards at the city gate were very relaxed and let me in after asking a few questions. Come to think of it, who would come to such a place?

The passers-by in the city looked at their horses and carriages and gave way, as if they were afraid of having anything to do with them.

Huo Yuanruo looked at the reactions of the passers-by in surprise and touched his nose. Did he look like a bad guy? Why were these people avoiding him?

He rode his horse closer to the carriage and said, "Master Junior, these people... why are they so strange? They seem to be very afraid of us."

"It's not surprising. Xiangyun City is the center of Mobei, and many people who have committed serious crimes are exiled here. The people here... are probably also deeply affected. They will definitely be more cautious towards strangers."

"This is not just being extra cautious, it's like they treat me like a plague god, as if you'll be unlucky if you look at me for one more second." Huo Yuanruo muttered in a low voice with some grievance.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's find an inn to stay in."

"Hey, I want to find someone to ask, look at this... Never mind, let's just walk and look."

After walking a few steps, a group of people came in front of them, a group of ragged men, followed by several yamen runners. The sight of such a large group of people was really frightening. The people passing by avoided them one after another, as if they were avoiding the god of plague.

Huo Yuanruo curled his lips. These people had just treated them in the same way. Alas, he had fallen to the same status as these... prisoners?

Huo Yuanruo slowed down unconsciously, wanting to wait for the group of people to pass.

A ragged middle-aged man stumbled and fell to the ground. The boy next to him, who had a numb face, was startled at first, then horrified and exclaimed, "Dad, what's wrong with you?"

Then a few more men came over, "Brother, are you okay, brother?"

"What's going on? Sir, please find a doctor."

The men were panicked because this was their eldest brother, the pillar of their family.

When Li Mulan heard the noise, she opened the carriage curtain and looked out. She saw the ignorant young man lying on the ground and shouting "Dad". She frowned slightly.

Qingyu noticed the change in her expression and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" Then he leaned out to look, "These... should be prisoners exiled here. Judging from their appearance, they should have just finished their labor service. Did that man... collapse from exhaustion?"

A yamen runner came forward with an impatient look on his face, "What are you yelling about? Hurry up and stop pretending to be dead. I still have to go back for dinner."

The tear-stained young man's eyes were bloodshot, and he kowtowed desperately to the yamen runner, "Sir, please help me get a doctor."

"Why call a doctor? Who are you? Why are you calling a doctor? Get up quickly and don't delay me from going home to find a wife. If you delay any longer, be careful of my whip." As he said this, he swung the whip in his hand. The whip made a loud noise when it hit the ground, scaring the others so much that they stepped back a little, fearing that they would be affected.

A younger bailiff came running over, "Brother Hu, what's wrong? Why are you so angry?"

The big man called Brother Hu glanced at the person lying on the ground and said, "It's Li Da. It's unlucky. If you want to die, die far away."

When the boy saw the young yamen runner, his eyes were filled with joy, "Brother Xiaosong, my father has fainted, please help me find a doctor."

This guy named Xiaosong is young. He just got a job as a yamen runner this year through his family’s connections. He has a good heart, but... He looked at his boss in embarrassment and said with some difficulty, "Brother Hu, why don’t we find a doctor? This man... "

"What doctor?" Brother Hu's eyes widened, "Xiaosong, don't be confused. These people are all exiled prisoners." Then he looked at the boy angrily, "I think you won't cry until you see the coffin. Looking for a doctor, right? Let me show you how I deal with you."

As he said that, he whipped the boy with a whip, and the boy curled up on the ground. Several men nearby stepped forward to protect him, "Sir, please calm down, sir, please calm down. The child is ignorant and has annoyed you. Please be magnanimous and don't bother with him..."

Brother Hu's eyes flashed with ferocity, "You are rebelling, and you still dare to stop me." Then he rolled up his sleeves, raised the whip and was ready to attack.

"Yuan Yuan."

Huo Yuanruo was already itching to bite the crap out of him, and when he heard his junior master's voice, he immediately jumped off his horse and grabbed the long whip that was about to hit the boy, "Who the hell are you, you're blocking my way, you're blind."

Brother Hu saw that his whip was grabbed by someone, and he looked at the other person with anger on his face. He saw that it was a handsome young man with a long sword on his back, who seemed to be a man of the underworld. But the clothes on his body were not ordinary.

Brother Hu gritted his teeth and said, "Young Master, what are you doing? We are doing government business, and you are..."

Although Brother Hu is a tyrant, he is not stupid. He is not a simple person at first glance. I don't know who he is. Although it is rare for people of high status to come to Xiangyun City, but... things are unpredictable, and you should be careful when you need to be careful.

"What's wrong with me? You guys are disturbing me and I'm just unhappy." When it comes to being tough, no one can compare to Huo Yuanruo.

Qingyu in the carriage shook her head helplessly. Even Li Mulan laughed, "Our Yuanyuan really looks like a playboy."

Brother Hu was so angry that the flesh on his face twitched twice. He tried to pull back the whip but found that he couldn't do it at all. He knew that the other party must be very skilled and didn't dare to confront him head-on. "Young Master, we are just doing business. Please spare us."

Huo Yuanruo snorted coldly and let go of his hand. He wiped it with a handkerchief in disdain, as if it was stained with something dirty. "Humph, a small yamen runner dares to act like a boss here. Who are you? I want to see who is so capable. In such a small Xiangyun City, could there be royal relatives? Even if they are royal relatives, I am not afraid of them. Let him come out. I want to see where this monster comes from."

Brother Hu was horrified, and was even more certain that the young man was not a simple person. He put away his whip and immediately bowed, "Young Master, please don't be upset. We are the ones who blocked your way. We will leave right now, right now."

Chu Jie's eyes flickered slightly. Royal relative, who exactly is this Brother Yuan Ruo?

Li Mulan almost clapped her hands and cheered for him, "Yuanyuan's aura is really intimidating."

She whispered with a smile in her eyes, "Yes, he is quite arrogant."

Li Mulan raised her head and said proudly, "I can't help it. My family has a long tradition of learning. Master said that when I go out, I must not let others bully me."

Qingyu tapped her forehead and asked, "When have you ever been bullied?"

Li Mulan became even more proud, "Of course, being bullied would be a disgrace to Master."

"You, that's because you haven't encountered any real tough guys."

"Hehe, don't be afraid. Besides Master, we also have fellow apprentices."

"That's right. No wonder everyone says that our Xiaojiu is a crab. He walks sideways wherever he goes."
