The Female Assistant of Wei Yuyan Shuangfei
Chapter 129 The Little Tuber 2
After two days of travel, Xie Shuting and her group finally arrived in Yizhou City at noon on the third day.
However, looking at the noise at the city gate, she inexplicably thought of Laigu County.
"Perhaps in the near future, Laigu County will also be of this scale!" Xie Shuting murmured to herself.
"With you in charge, Laigu County will have no worries in the future."
Xie Shuting lowered the car curtain shyly and said, "I'm not as good as you say. Business and politics are two different things."
“Isn’t it all for the benefit of the people?”
At this point, Li Shixian suddenly changed the subject and said with a smile: "Shu Ting! If one day you become an official in the court, it may really be a blessing for the people."
"You! You are a little crazy again. Not to mention that I am a girl, and..."
Unexpectedly, before Xie Shuting could finish her words, she felt the carriage suddenly stop. Then she heard someone outside the carriage asking, "Stop! Check."
Xie Shuting was obviously stunned. She had heard that taxes had to be paid when entering the city, but the fact that there was an inspection when entering the city made her feel a little confused.
Li Shixian saw Xie Shuting's surprised look and shook her head with a wry smile, saying, "When I came to Yizhou a month ago, it wasn't so strict yet."
"It looks like something is happening."
Xie Shuting calmed down and said to Lian Xi outside the car, "Xi'er! Let them check."
"Yes, Miss." Lian Xi responded and moved aside.
The bailiff first stepped forward and took a look at the carriage, then reached out and lifted the curtain to look at the interior. After discovering that there were only Xie Shuting and Li Shixian, the joy on his face disappeared in an instant.
The yamen runner put down the vehicle and asked in a deep voice, "What are you doing in Yizhou?"
"Send a letter home."
Xie Shuting responded, took out the pass she had prepared in advance and handed it out through the car window, saying softly, "This is the pass issued by the county government. Please send me to check it."
"Hmph!~"
The yamen runner snorted coldly, took the pass and flipped through it casually, then handed it to Lian Xi and said, "Pay the tax of fifteen cents and go in!"
"Thank you, sir."
Lian Xi stroked his hands and said thank you, then paid the tax and drove the carriage towards the city.
Unexpectedly! When Xie Shuting's carriage passed through the city gate, she heard a brief exchange between two yamen runners outside the carriage.
"is it?"
"No. If he were, he wouldn't ride in this kind of carriage. The key is that there is no portrait of the person the superiors are looking for. We have to rely on our guesses. Many people have been arrested during this period, but it turns out that they are not him."
"Ah! I don't know who the other party is, but he actually attracted so much attention from the Ministry of Punishment."
"Who said it wasn't? This cold weather is really torturous."
When these few short sentences reached Xie Shuting's ears, their meaning was different.
Li Shixian was also confused at first, but when she saw Xie Shuting's expression, she seemed to have some guesses in her mind.
"Shu Ting! They won't look for you, will they?" Li Shixian lowered her voice, fearing that she would be noticed by the yamen runners outside.
"I don't know either, but I feel like this matter seems to be related to me." Xie Shuting said thoughtfully.
The carriage moved slowly along the way, and after only an incense stick of time, it stopped steadily outside the Fu'an Restaurant.
The waiter came out with great discernment and asked flatteringly, "Sister, are you here for a meal or to stay overnight?"
"You are quite likable, little second brother."
While Lian Xi was talking, he put the horse stool in place, lifted the carriage curtain and said, "Miss! We're here."
Xie Shuting walked lightly from the carriage wearing a veil. Although her face was covered, her noble temperament was emanating like a subtle fragrance.
Li Shixian is still dressed as a man, but the feminine beauty between her eyebrows is like peach blossoms in the spring morning breeze, adding a bit of charm.
Although the waiter had seen countless people, when faced with the two people in front of him, he could only make a preliminary judgment in his mind, that is, these two people were extremely noble, as if boundless.
"Hey!~"
The waiter came up to us pretending to be silly, stroked our hands and said, "I wonder if the three of you are here to stay or to stay overnight?"
"Prepare two top-grade guest rooms." Xie Shuting walked towards the inn while speaking.
The waiter was shocked when he heard this, and quickly chased after her and took Xie Shuting to a seat on the first floor.
"Miss! I am truly sorry, but our Tianzi and Dizi guest rooms have been reserved by a guest. Now there are only two Xuanzi guest rooms left. I am afraid I will have to inconvenience you, Miss."
"Yeah!~"
Xie Shuting frowned and asked in confusion, "I remember you have at least ten Tianzi guest rooms. Are they all reserved?"
The waiter rubbed his hands awkwardly and said with a flattering smile, "This guest doesn't like to be disturbed, so all the rooms on the top floor are open to this guest."
"This guy is so arrogant, haha!"
Li Shixian laughed out loud and looked at Xie Shuting and said, "Shuting! I didn't expect someone to be more arrogant than you. The guest rooms in this restaurant, I remember, are five taels of silver per room!"
Upon hearing this, the waiter was very excited and replied, "This guest is really knowledgeable. Our Fu'an Restaurant's Tianzihao guest room offers a panoramic view of the beautiful scenery of Yizhou. The furnishings in the room are also quite exquisite, using..."
Listening to the waiter's endless praises, Xie Shuting stroked her forehead in pain, while Li Shixian was trying hard to hold back her laughter.
When Xie Shuting revealed her identity to her earlier, she told her the business logo of the Lian family business.
As soon as they entered Fu'an Restaurant, Li Shixian noticed the lotus pattern under the sign. She didn't need to think too much to know that this restaurant was owned by the Lian family.
However, as the owner of the Lian family business, he was unable to reveal his identity at the moment and it was really painful for him to listen to the waiter's introduction.
"Three distinguished guests! This Ru kiln porcelain, Jiangnan silk, Sichuan brocade... these things are something that ordinary people cannot afford in their lifetime, but if they spend five taels of silver, they are not expensive, right?"
Xie Shuting can say it is expensive, after all, these operations are still hers, and after all, the money to be made is from rich people.
Merchants were not allowed to wear silk, but staying in an inn was not so particular. However, the inn founded by Xie Shuting happened to give them a ritualistic experience.
"Hey!~"
Xie Shuting sighed helplessly and said, "Then give me two Xuan-numbered guest rooms."
"Your Excellency is truly a discerning person. Our Xuan brand..."
Listening to the waiter's endless introduction, Xie Shuting stroked her forehead and said, "Xi'er! Go pay."
"Please!~"
The waiter smiled innocently and bowed to Xie Shuting, saying loudly, "Three distinguished guests, two Xuan-numbered guest rooms."
The waiter at the counter took the banknote with a smile, and handed a bunch of keys to Lian Xi, saying, "Miss! Go up to the second floor and turn left. It's the first room."
"Thank you!~"
Lian Xi thanked him, took the key, turned around and returned to Xie Shuting's side and said, "Miss! There is no room number one or one room number two. I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for Sister Yue to do anything?"
"Don't worry, go order the food. I think she has already received the message." Xie Shuting said calmly.
