Dressing as Ziwei makes the Qing Dynasty more powerful

Chapter 68 Huibin Building, Goodbye Liu Qing and Liu Hong

Xiaoyanzi stood on the bustling street, took a deep breath, and felt the bustle and freedom of the city. After finally leaving the palace, she couldn't wait to go to the slum to see how Liu Qing and Liu Hong were doing.

Patting the jewellery hidden in her lapels, Xiaoyanzi's heart was filled with joy. With these things, life in the compound would change a lot. Everyone could drink and eat meat every day like her, and no longer need to work hard to make money by performing.

Just as Xiaoyanzi was immersed in her beautiful imagination, a familiar voice was heard: "Xiaoyanzi, what are you doing here?" Falcon finally found an excuse to sneak out of the construction site and happened to see Xiaoyanzi standing on the street and grinning foolishly.

Seeing Fu Erkang, Xiaoyanzi said excitedly: "Erkang, let me tell you, I stole, no, took out a lot of jewelry, and now I'm going to give them to Liu Qing and the others. Do you want to go to the slum with me to take a look?" As she said that, she took out the gold, silver and jewelry in her arms and showed them to Fu Erkang.

However, when Falcon saw the royal insignia on the jewellery, his face turned grim, and the corners of his mouth twitched. He said helplessly to Xiaoyanzi, "Xiaoyanzi, you can't sell these things outside, and no pawnshop would dare to take them. These jewellery pieces have royal insignia on them. If you were caught buying or selling them privately, the consequences would be disastrous."

"What? It can't be used? I spent so much effort hiding it. It really makes me angry. Ah - the palace really is unlucky for me." Xiaoyanzi stomped her feet in anger, and her voice unconsciously became much higher.

Fu Erkang quickly pulled her to a deserted corner and said nervously, "Xiaoyanzi, keep your voice down. There are many people in the capital, don't cause trouble."

Xiaoyanzi was very disdainful of his cowardly words. She curled her lips and said, "Pfft, pfft, pfft, I am Princess Huanzhu, who dares to bully me?"

Falcon shook his head helplessly and said soothingly, "Alright, alright, you're a princess. Auntie, there's a new hotel up ahead. Do you want to go there? I heard it's packed."

When Xiaoyanzi heard this, her eyes lit up immediately. She excitedly stuffed the jewels into her clothes and pulled Falcon away, saying impatiently, "Really? Come on, come on, I want to drink."

The two of them walked further and further apart. A figure slowly emerged from a nearby corner, silently gazing in their direction. He narrowed his eyes, gently spinning the flute in his hand a few times. His lips curled slightly as he murmured to himself, "Friends, I never thought we were destined to meet so soon." With that, he turned and left, his figure gradually disappearing into the crowd.

Huibinlou was located in the most prosperous area of ​​the capital, bustling with activity and bustling with people. Xiaoyanzi stood in front of the building with great joy, her eyes gleaming with excitement. At this moment, her mind was no longer filled with thoughts of Liu Qing and Liu Hong, only with the desire and anticipation of delicious food.

She couldn't wait to walk into the guest house. Seeing the bustling crowd inside, she immediately squeezed into an empty seat and sat down, saying loudly: "Hey, order some food!"

Xiaoyanzi looked around and said enviously, "Erkang, look how good the business is here! It would be great if I could open a restaurant like this! We can all get together here in the future." As she spoke, an expression of longing appeared on her face.

Falcon couldn't help laughing: "Haha, you still want to open a restaurant? Do you know how to run it?" he joked.

Xiaoyanzi retorted unconvincedly: "Why not? I can learn it!" She patted her chest confidently.

Falcon smiled and shook his head: "Xiaoyanzi, you should learn to read first."

After hearing this, Xiaoyanzi felt a little depressed, but she quickly cheered up: "Hmph, when I learn to read, I will definitely open a restaurant that is bigger and more luxurious than this one!" She said firmly.

At this moment, Xiaoyanzi suddenly noticed a couple on the second floor. Her eyes widened and she exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't that Liu Qing and Liu Hong?"

Little Swallow was so excited that she almost jumped up: "Wow, it's really them! I'm going to go find them!" She quickly stood up and prepared to rush over.

Falcon quickly held her back and said, "Don't worry, Xiaoyanzi, let's eat first. It won't be too late to go find them after we finish eating."

Xiaoyanzi shook off his hand, "No, I haven't seen them for a long time."

She stood up and wanted to go find them, but there were so many people here that it was difficult for her to squeeze through. So she rolled her eyes, jumped up, used her lightness skills and flew in that direction.

However, Xiaoyanzi overestimated her ability to fly directly from one side of the restaurant to the other. When she reached the other side, she failed to fly over the railing and fell straight down.

Falcon was startled, but he couldn't get there in time, so he quickly covered his face and couldn't bear to see Xiaoyanzi smashed to pieces.

Amidst the crowd's exclamations, a figure rose from the ground and hugged Xiaoyanzi in mid-air.

Suddenly being hugged, Xiaoyanzi's frightened heart calmed down. She calmed down and looked up, and found herself being held in the arms of a man. Her face flushed and she struggled to get out of his arms.

"Xiaoyanzi, how are you? Are you okay?" Liu Hong ran downstairs and saw that it was Xiaoyanzi. She hurried forward and pulled her down from the man's arms, looking her up and down.

Xiaoyanzi patted her chest and gasped, "I was so scared! I almost thought I was going to fall!" Then she looked at the man who saved her and said gratefully, "Thank you, you saved my life."

The man smiled slightly and said softly, "You're welcome. It's just a small favor." Then he turned and walked upstairs.

Xiaoyanzi blinked her eyes and hugged Liu Hong excitedly, calling out, "Liu Hong, long time no see. Did you miss me? I didn't expect to meet you and Liu Qing here. Are you working here?"

Liu Hong smiled and nodded, "Yes, we have been working here for a while."

Little Swallow asked curiously, "What kind of work do you do here?"

Liu Hong smiled mysteriously, "I'll tell you later. Xiaoyanzi, are you here for dinner? Go eat first, and we'll talk again when there are fewer customers."

"Okay, then you and Liu Qing can't leave early!" After talking to Liu Hong, Xiaoyanzi hurried upstairs to find Fulukang.

However, as soon as she went upstairs, she saw the man who had just saved her drinking alone, and reciting a poem with every sip.

"With a flute and a sword, I travel the world; with love and hatred through the ages, I drink a pot of wine; with my two feet, I overturn the earthly path, with the sky as my roof and the earth as my furnace."
