The War God Uncle's Delicate Wife
Chapter 86 Jicheng
Jiang Bu did not continue to ask. He thought that since his sister asked for help to find someone, then he would help. And this time his sister took the initiative to ask him for help, which was a rare thing! He couldn't help but feel a little proud, thinking that he must be ranked first in his sister's heart. Otherwise, why didn't his sister ask his elder brother for help? Oh, right, he suddenly remembered that his elder brother and second brother seemed to be not at home. That's not right, then why didn't she even ask his father? Could it be that in his sister's heart, he was more important than his father? Thinking of this, Jiang Bu couldn't help laughing. However, what he didn't know was that it was actually his father who asked Jiang Li to come to him for help this time.
Without saying anything, he immediately turned around and arranged for someone to handle the matter. At this moment, Shi Liu, who was standing aside, could not help but frown slightly, thinking to herself: "Why doesn't Miss ask the prince for help? After all, the prince is a powerful person! And... who is that boy named Mo Yan? Could it be that the prince has encountered a new rival in love this time?" Thinking of this, Shi Liu's face became a little solemn, and she was hesitating whether to tell her own prince.
While Shi Liu was still hesitating, Mu Jiuchen had already stepped out of the city gate and walked further and further towards the northern border. Along the way, he and his servants kept a low profile, but they did not know that countless secret guards had already ambushed in the dark, following them like a shadow.
These secret guards followed Mu Jiuchen and others silently, hiding in the shadows like ghosts. They were experienced in many battles, well-trained, and always vigilant, ready to deal with any possible dangers and changes.
"Master, I, Changyun, report to you that Jicheng is not far ahead. Do you want to continue moving forward or stop to rest for a while?" Changyun looked at the city that was looming in the distance, a hint of fatigue in his eyes.
"Go on..." A low and firm voice came from the carriage, concise and clear.
"Yes, sir!" Chang Yun responded quickly, and gestured in the air to signal the team to continue moving forward. He knew his master's character very well, and once he made a decision, he would not change it easily.
However, at this moment, some memories seemed to surge in Mu Jiuchen's mind. He stared at Jicheng in the distance, frowning slightly, as if trying to recall something.
"Jicheng..." Mu Jiuchen whispered the name softly, as if it had a special meaning to him. After a moment, he suddenly made a decision.
"Changyun, pass the order down and enter the city! We will stay for a while to replenish supplies and provisions." Mu Jiuchen said decisively, while lifting the curtain of the car and looking firmly at Jicheng ahead.
Chang Yun was slightly surprised, but then he took the order and left. He understood that the master's decision must have a deep meaning, and they only needed to obey orders. So the entire convoy slowly drove into Jicheng, preparing to rest here for a while.
After entering Jicheng, the group did not go to the post station, but chose an inn that was not very conspicuous. This inn looked a bit old, but it exuded a different kind of tranquility and warmth.
As soon as we entered the inn, the innkeeper came up to us warmly with a bright smile on his face.
"Gentlemen, are you staying in the hotel or just stopping by for a night?" The shopkeeper's voice was loud and friendly, making people feel a little warm.
Changyun took out a white magnolia purse from his waist and gently placed it on the cabinet. The shopkeeper had sharp eyes and saw the exquisite purse at a glance. A subtle light flashed in his eyes, and then he put it away with a smile.
"Okay, gentlemen, please follow me upstairs." After the shopkeeper said this, he turned around and walked out, ready to lead Mu Jiuchen and others to the room upstairs. At this moment, a waiter next to him hurried over, and Mu Jiuchen's eyes flashed slightly.
"Boss, please take a rest. I will take the gentlemen upstairs." The waiter said in a flattering manner, obviously trying to please these guests.
However, the shopkeeper did not appreciate it at all. He simply walked past the waiter and continued walking towards Mu Jiuchen and others.
"Xiao Linzi, that's not necessary. It would be better for me to lead the way myself." The shopkeeper's tone was firm, and he didn't seem to care about the waiter's kindness.
Seeing this, another waiter quickly pulled the waiter aside and whispered to him, "You're new here, don't get involved if you don't know the rules."
The waiter who was pulled away looked aggrieved, but he didn't dare to say anything more. He could only stand aside silently and watch the shopkeeper take Mu Jiuchen and others upstairs.
Xiao Linzi scratched his head, then turned to ask the elder brother surnamed Li: "Brother Li, I have just been here for a short time and I don't know these rules yet. Can you tell me the origins of those people who just went up?"
Brother Li just shook his head, sighed, and said softly: "Don't ask about things that you shouldn't ask. Knowing too much will not do you any good. Just go about your business!" After that, Brother Li turned around and left, continuing to do the work at hand.
Xiao Linzi turned around and went to the kitchen. After a while, he carried a bucket of hot water and went upstairs.
In the room upstairs, Mu Jiuchen was sitting at the table drinking tea, with Changyun and Changfeng standing on both sides.
"Hu Fu greets the master." The shopkeeper was seen kneeling on the ground.
"Get up, Manager Hu." Mu Jiuchen looked at him while drinking tea.
"What's going on with that guy downstairs?"
"My lord, that person is a new arrival. Another waiter in the store had an accident a few days ago, so we hired a new person because we were short of staff. Is there anything wrong with that?" Shopkeeper Hu half-bowed.
"That man seemed to be walking towards me in a flattering manner, but in fact his steps were very light."
"How could that be?" Shopkeeper Hu looked surprised.
