"What are you looking at?"

Xie Yushu noticed that Zhan Jilan didn't catch up and said impatiently.

"I think I saw my eldest daughter..."

Zhan Jilan rubbed her eyes and felt that the man's back looked very similar, but unfortunately the man walked away before she could see him clearly.

"But it shouldn't be her. The one who came out of Song Pavilion wasn't someone powerful. She doesn't have money to buy things."

Zhan Jilan sneered.

"Hurry up and don't waste time. My legs still hurt."

Xie Yushu was the man who eloped with Zhan Jilan. He was frightened by the ruthlessness that Xu Yiyi exuded that day.

Xie Yushu thought he was about to confess his mistake.

Xu Yi was ruthless. After they left the town, they had originally planned to go to Chang'an, but his leg was not getting better.

I can only stay in this city for so long.

Hearing Zhan Jilan talking about her daughter again, he couldn't help but feel annoyed.

Xu Yiyi had no idea that she and Zhan Jilan had such a fate. She ran into him even after coming to the provincial capital.

After leaving the fabric store, she went straight to the inn to stay overnight.

Soft brocade was sold at a very high price, and even Xu Yiyi, who had two thousand taels of silver in his pocket, couldn't help but feel distressed.

A relative of the Zhong family should be an official of some importance in Chang'an, otherwise Zhong Xiang, with his official position, would not dare to use such material to make clothes.

Only officials and their families could use a variety of materials such as damask, silk, satin, etc.

Common people mostly used rough ramie or low-grade linen.

Those who have a little money can use cotton cloth. Xu Yiyi changed her clothes before coming, otherwise she wouldn't even be able to enter the shop.

"Boss, what kind of rooms do you have here?"

Xu Yiyi had only known about Room Number One when watching TV before. If she had money, she would probably be able to casually ask for the best room.

Unfortunately, she didn't have any, so she could only ask for clarification.

"The best room is definitely the Sky Room, the next best is the Ground Room, and the ordinary rooms are numbered. If you don't have much money, you can stay in a dormitory, which has multiple beds."

Tongfu Inn can only be considered an ordinary inn, with the front yard, guest hall and back hall divided into two floors.

The inn is not very spacious and the space inside is compact. Several tables are placed in an orderly manner, and several elegant landscape paintings are hung on the walls.

"Are there any cheap rooms for single occupancy?"

The big bunk bed is for both men and women, so Xu Yiyi never thought of choosing this.

"You can choose a room, one hundred coins a night."

Xu Yiyi took out a piece of change and handed it over, then followed the waiter into the room.

The maritime jurisdiction in the provincial capital seemed to be stricter. Xu Yiyi went out for a walk and found that every beach was guarded by soldiers.

I was just planning to stroll around, but when I stood on the shoreline, I saw the bell ringing.

"Are you Yi Yi? I'm your Uncle Zhong. Why are you here? Did you come here alone?"

Zhong Xiang was a captain, which was considered an official.

The officers and soldiers following behind him all glanced at Xu Yiyi inadvertently, so that they could have at least an impression of him and avoid offending anyone.

"Uncle, how are you? I'm Yi Yi!"

"What brings you here?"

Zhong Xiang asked tentatively, could it be that she was dissatisfied with her father's death pension and came here to cause trouble?

"Come and buy something."

Xu Yiyi didn't like Zhong Xiang's look, it was too shrewd.

An honest man like Xu Yinli would definitely not be able to outsmart such a person if he plays tricks on him.

Otherwise, the original owner's marriage would not have been planned.

"What's there in town? You'd better not run around as a girl. It's very dangerous out there. Where do you live? I'll take you back."

Although Xu Yinli is dead, the adults who value Xu Yinli are still alive, so Zhong Xiang is still willing to pretend to be nice to him.

Even at this moment, I felt a little unhappy, thinking that I had wasted his time.

"No, I'm just strolling around..."

"What would you do if you, a girl, were in danger? Or should I take you there..."

Zhong Xiang looked like he cared about the younger generation, which made other officers and soldiers think he was a good person.

"what happened?"

"What are you doing here when you're not on patrol?"

At first glance, it felt like a high-ranking official had arrived, and the voice of the person speaking was full of majesty.

He wore a dark black military uniform with armor on the outside. The visible edges of the lapels and cuffs were embroidered with very delicate tiger and leopard patterns, which was a symbol of his status.

"I pay my respects to Commander Lin."

Zhong Xiang saluted with his subordinates, and Lin Ke glanced at Xu Yiyi.

Zhong Xiang took the initiative to start the introduction.

"This is Captain Xu's daughter. I was on patrol and saw her alone. I was worried she might be in danger, so I decided to send her back."

Lin Ke was the Shangfu Zhechou Duwei of Zhechoufu, a senior official of the fourth rank.

He was the highest-ranking official in Zhechou Mansion, while Xu Yinli was just a small clerk. No one knew how the two became friends.

Zhong Xiang was very good at doing the things of patting the beard and riding the horse. When he saw that Xu Yinli had a good relationship with Lin Ke, he approached him.

As a result, he became familiar to Lin Ke.

At this moment, when Lin Ke heard that he was going to send Xu Yiyi back, he looked very satisfied.

This surprised Zhong Xiang a little. He thought that Lin Ke and Xu Yinli were just being polite.

Now seeing how kind he is to Xu Yiyi, I'm afraid he has a really good relationship with Xu Yinli.

"Did you encounter any problems when you came to the capital? Your father and I are good friends. If you encounter any trouble, feel free to come to me."

Lin Ke took out a golden tortoise talisman from his arms, which symbolized his identity.

"If you encounter any problems in the future, just take this out and someone will bring you to see me."

Xu Yiyi hesitated for a moment, but finally accepted it.

I was thinking of going back to cancel the engagement tomorrow, maybe it could come in handy.

"Thank you, uncle. I just came to the city to buy some things. I just came out for a stroll because I thought it was novel. I didn't encounter any problems."

It can be seen that Lin Ke treats her very well, thanks to Xu Yinli.

For the siblings, having a relationship with such a high-ranking official would bring more benefits than disadvantages.

She must use this relationship with caution. After all, people are gone and he may not remember Xu Yinli after a long time.

With this tortoise talisman, he will help you when you really encounter problems.

"There are a lot of fun things in the capital city. If you need me, I'll send someone to follow you."

This is a serious person, but he was very kind when he met Xu Yiyi.

There was no calculation in his eyes. Xu Yiyi thought to himself that this was a completely different person from Zhong Xiang.

The two chatted as if no one was around, and Zhong Xiang was a little shocked.

Important items like the Turtle Talisman can only be given to important people.

It seems that Lin Ke not only values ​​Xu Yinli, but also his children.

In this case, Zhong Congyun's marriage cannot be delayed. He thought of his wife who went back last month and wanted to cancel the engagement after hearing the news of Xu Yinli's death.

He wished he could go back immediately and let the two children get married.
