I’ll Be the Male Lead’s Sister-in-Law
Chapter 63: assassin
Today in Shangyuan, the emperors are all watching the lights on the tower, and the guard pressure under the palace is self-evident. The commander of the guards was tense, and suddenly a subordinate ran over and clasped his fists to report that someone was going to leave the palace.
The commander of the Guards frowned when they heard that someone was about to leave the palace. Whose master is this? When the palace is the back garden of his home, he regards the safety of the forbidden palace as a trifling matter? But after listening to his subordinates say the name of the man, the guards commander's eyebrows furrowed tighter. He was stunned for a while, then turned around to open the door for that person himself.
Mu Mingtang followed Xie Xuanchen and walked out of the palace. She saw the heavy guard posts around her, and she felt that the emperor was indeed an extremely cautious person. By looking at the rigorous degree of interrogation, she could see his acting style.
Mu Mingtang looked around quietly. Xie Xuanchen noticed Mu Mingtang's movements. He pointed to the guard posts on both sides as he walked and Mu Mingtang explained: "This is the Imperial Guard, and they are all banners in the army. They are incorporated into the Beiwei army. They serve in the imperial front. They do not belong to any membership, they only listen to the emperor's orders, so they are called the Imperial Guard. They guard the palace on weekdays and serve as ceremonies and guards during celebrations. Just like today, the imperial safety is their responsibility."
Mu Mingtang seemed to understand, she asked, "The emperor is on the tower right now. Can they let people go in and out of the city gate?"
"Of course not. No ban was imposed by the people on the third day of the Yuan Dynasty, but the lock was kept as usual during the ban. The palace gate was already locked at this time, not to mention the protection of the emperor now."
Therefore, while listening to Xie Xuanchen's comment on how strict the ban was that no one was allowed to enter, Mu Mingtang let someone open the palace gate and led her out.
Mu Mingtang sighed in disgust in his heart.
Privilege is really sinful.
Xie Xuanchen undoubtedly made many people nervous after leaving the palace. He originally brought a large group of guards when he came out, but now that the emperor speaks, the Imperial Guard actually allocated a part of it to him. Now they are walking on the street, their armors are opening the way, mighty and arrogant.
Mu Mingtang immersed in the crowd, and was quickly infected by the festive atmosphere, and he looked at the lights excitedly. Today, there are lights everywhere on the street. A series of round lanterns are drawn to cover the street, and the shops on both sides have their own colorful lights, which are colorful and lively. In addition to the lights, the street vendors also show no signs of weakness, using various novel tricks to attract customers. Mu Mingtang had only walked a short distance, and stopped several times, curiously going to the stall to watch.
Mu Mingtang saw another sugar man on the road and excitedly pulled Xie Xuanchen: "Look, sugar man! My sugar man has not eaten a bite. Let's buy another one."
She didn't mention it, but Xie Xuanchen snorted coldly when she mentioned the incident, and said, "Didn't you eat it all, you took it to give it away."
Mu Mingtang was funny, and forcibly pulled Xie Xuanchen to go there: "Well, I shouldn't, this time I invite you, right?"
Xie Xuanchen half pushed and half on the spot followed. A group of guards followed Wang An and Princess An. Their tough armor was incompatible with the surroundings. Now they still have colorful gadgets in their hands, and the style of painting becomes more and more weird. They watched Xie Xuanchen and the princess go shopping for Sugar Man, looked at each other, and saw a hint of surprise.
What does An Wang want to do? Is he making a noise, or is he deliberately paralyzing his vision?
Mu Mingtang didn't care about the big guys behind him. She and Xie Xuanchen gathered around the sugar man's booth, enthusiastically choosing the sugar man tricks. Mu Mingtang is a monkey, but he has bought a monkey just now, and Mu Mingtang doesn't want to ask for a monkey anymore. She watched for a while, then turned to ask Xie Xuanchen, "Are you a dragon?"
"Yeah." Xie Xuanchen nodded. He and Mu Mingtang are four years old. One is a dragon and the other is a monkey.
Mu Mingtang suddenly said "Oh" and said, "Chenlong, no wonder your name is Xuanchen. It turns out that I even thought of this."
Xie Xuanchen just shook his head indifferently when he heard it: "Who knows, maybe my father just thought that I was born in the year of the dragon, so he named Chen. In this way, it is similar to yours."
Mu Mingtang shook her head silently. She knew her father very well. The coincidence in Xie Xuanchen's name must be deliberate, but her name really came up with her father's forehead.
Mo Mingtang was inspired and quickly said to the boss: "I want a dragon." After she finished speaking, she looked back at Xie Xuanchen: "Where are you?"
Xie Xuanchen thought for a while, and said: "Then I want Haitang."
Mu Mingtang was surprised: "Can you still do this?"
Xie Xuanchen looked at the stall owner: "Can't you?"
Although his tone was calm, the glance in his eyes made people scared. How dare the stall owner say no, he nodded hurriedly: "Yes."
Xie Xuanchen nodded in satisfaction and answered Mu Mingtang's question just now: "Look, you can do it."
After Xie Xuanchen finished speaking, he raised his eyebrows and looked at the stall owner: "You must not make a flower to fool me, you must make it look like a real begonia."
The stall owner was so frightened that he couldn't say anything, he only knew that he was dead and nodded. The stall owner unexpectedly gave birth to a hint of clever energy in his nervousness, knowing to be Mu Mingtang first. Mu Mingtang was the first to get the Sugar Man. She looked at the transparent and shiny dragon with all the hairs in front of her, and exclaimed: "It's so good, I don't want to eat it anymore."
At this time, Xie Xuanchen also got his own crabapple flower. He looked at the sugar man in front of him, turned around twice, raised his eyes and looked at the stall owner suspiciously: "You really didn't fool me?"
"Langjun was wronged, the little one did make Begonia."
Mu Mingtang stood by, already biting off the dragon's beard, and hearing Xie Xuanchen's words replied: "Yes, that's Haitang."
Xie Xuanchen lowered his head and looked hard at the begonia flower condensed from sugar, his expression increasingly confused. Is there really a difference? Why can't he see?
The two got the things and signaled the guards behind to pay. The sugar man stall owner got a big reward and immediately laughed.
Although that beautiful man was difficult to serve, he was very generous in rewards. Their income from this single order has exceeded that of setting up a stall overnight.
Mu Mingtang held the Tang Ren and walked for a while, elbow Xie Xuanchen next to him, pointed and asked, "What is that?"
Xie Xuanchen looked up and saw that someone was performing an illusion. Behind the man stood a potted tree with colorful lights. He kept yelling to the people around him to attract popularity, and then muttered words. After a while, fruit grew out of thin air on the branches.
Mu Mingtang couldn't figure it out, and asked Xie Xuanchen, "How did he do it?"
"I don't know." Xie Xuanchen also looked for a while and said truthfully. Mu Mingtang glanced at him helplessly: "You also said that you are not out of date. Look, you don't know what is popular now."
Xie Xuanchen was speechless this time, realizing that he really seemed to be behind, and now he doesn't understand the new tricks of Tokyo. Xie Xuanchen thinks about it. The Tokyo in his memory is still before the age of fifteen. After he forced into the army at the age of fifteen, he was either busy fighting wars or busy usurping the throne, and he never paid attention to the fun activities in Beijing.
The withered branches in the winter really attracted many people. The stall owner attracted enough attention, and finally changed his voice and recommended his own plaster to the onlookers. Mu Mingtang realized that but still felt disillusioned.
It turned out to be a plaster.
Both of them felt speechless and continued to move forward tacitly.
Just stop and go, a long time passed without knowing it. During this period of time, the journey was much longer than usual, but Mu Mingtang did not feel tired, and it was even easier than listening to the Queen Mother in the palace.
She was very interested, and when she passed a lantern riddle stand, she suddenly became interested in guessing lantern riddles. Mu Mingtang took a fancy to a beautiful palace lantern. The workmanship was very elegant, but he could take it away only if he guessed the lantern riddle correctly.
Mu Mingtang had to stop thinking, Xie Xuanchen walked behind Mu Mingtang, glanced at the lamp, and said, "If you like it, buy it. Why bother."
Seeing what it was saying, Mu Mingtang glared at Xie Xuanchen with hatred for the lack of steel, and said, "No, if you can't guess, you can rely on money to solve it. It seems that we are very careless."
Mu Mingtang's tone is like a private school teacher, a student who is not working hard when he is unable to teach. Xie Xuanchen blinked, then glanced at the lamp, and sighed helplessly: "Okay."
He said an answer to the shopkeeper of the lamp shop. The shopkeeper was surprised and suspicious. After a moment, he hurriedly came out to fetch the lamp for Xie Xuanchen.
Xie Xuanchen slipped the palace lantern into Mu Mingtang's hand, and Mu Mingtang was shocked by this development. She stayed for a while, turned her head and looked at Xie Xuanchen incredulously: "You know?"
"Guess what you want."
Mu Mingtang stayed for a while, and sadly found that she had been abandoned. The companion she thought was not a companion, she was the only one present.
Mu Mingtang was very angry, and finally angered Xie Xuanchen: "Since you guessed it, why did you start saying you want to buy it?"
"I really planned to buy it directly. Later, when you said that you wanted to guess the riddle, I took a look."
Unexpectedly, Mu Mingtang became even more angry after listening. She gave Xie Xuanchen angrily and said, "Shut up, I don't want to listen."
Xie Xuanchen felt wronged. Although he had been in the military and was known for his combat power, he himself was impatient with the greasy and crooked set of Yinfeng Nongyue. But he also asked his private school to teach him from his childhood, and his literary foundation is not bad.
It's just not famous.
To blame, he can only be blamed for his good-looking looks and too obvious, and he is too abrupt with high force.
Mu Mingtang walked casually, wherever he went. Someone brought things along the way and accompanied by beauties. Mu Mingtang’s shopping experience was very enjoyable. But on the other hand, the experience of the Janissaries behind him is not wonderful anyway.
They swayed back and forth in relaxation and vigilance, constantly figuring out what King An wanted to do. Until one night passed, each of them carried things big and small, and all the elite guards in the army were finally able to confirm that Wang An was out to accompany the princess to go shopping to please women.
It is the truth of despair and anger.
Mu Mingtang was hungry for shopping. She saw someone buying chestnuts on the side of the road. She pulled Xie Xuanchen's sleeve and didn't speak. Xie Xuanchen understood. The two of them were crossing the street when a cart suddenly passed by behind them. Unknown to what was wrong with the axle, they hit a stall on one side, and the goods were scattered all over the street, blocking the entire road.
The cart collided so hard that all the lanterns on the railing were hung down. The lantern was made of paper, and when it was ignited, it burned.
There was a sound of firefighting all around, because the city was densely populated and fires broke out frequently. Every household had water, and every neighborhood had a special fire-fighting well. It was just a lantern, watched by so many people around, and it was quickly put out.
This small fire was not a problem, but it caused a great commotion. After the cart collided with the stall, the road was blocked, which happened to stop the guards behind Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang. After that, the crowd shouted for the fire again, many people ran out, and many people brought water to fight the fire. The scene was very chaotic.
No matter how powerful the Guards were, they didn't have wings. There were too many people on the Spring Festival, and the crowd was too crowded. Even the Immortal Daluo couldn't make it through. The chief of the guard just watched Wang An and Princess An being blocked by the crowd. When they came back, they were no longer visible.
The face of the Janissaries changed suddenly.
In fact, if Mu Mingtang’s voice was heard by the Imperial Guard, she would definitely cry out injustice. This time, they really just came to go shopping without any plans. Even the seemingly sudden congestion on the streets just now was not caused by them.
I just don't know to say it, the Imperial Guard and the emperor believe it or not.
When Mu Mingtang and Xie Xuanchen noticed that the cart passed by behind them and hit the roadside stall directly, they knew the situation was different. The lantern behind was still on fire, and many people ran out. Seeing that the chestnut stall was not right, they hurriedly shouted in their ears: "It's on fire, run!"
Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang were crowded by the crowd, and they also walked a lot outside. In this way, they and the guards got out of sight.
When they finally reached a more spacious site, they had already merged into another block. The chestnut vendor wiped the sweat from his head, and sighed like a restless man: "Fortunately, I ran out. Fortunately, it was just a false alarm."
The hawker said with a simple smile, and looked at Mu Mingtang and Xie Xuanchen in a naive way: "If you survive a catastrophe, there must be a blessing. Langjun and the lady just wanted to buy chestnuts. The younger one has a relationship with the Langjun lady. Well, how much Lang Jun buys, the small one will be 30% cheaper for you."
Xie Xuanchen smiled inexplicably, so he looked at the hawker in time. Mu Mingtang didn't panic at all, and even sighed in his heart.
It's naive. Mu Mingtang guessed that they had been spotted very early. I'm afraid these people were tempted when they were in Xuandemen Square.
After all, Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang came out of the palace directly, and even the yellow-mouthed children can guess that their identities are either rich or expensive.
It's hard for them to follow this way. I'm afraid these people have determined that Xie Xuanchen's identity is very high, and that he is indeed a member of the royal family, and they made up their minds to do it. What's more unfortunate is that Xie Xuanchen's beautiful and innocent appearance probably gave them some wrong suggestion that they made the decision to draw away the guards and leave Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang alone.
Mu Mingtang felt a little pity for the person in front of him. Do they think that the five big and three rough guards are to protect Xie Xuanchen?
Not at all, the guards actually protect these assassins.
