The two of them actually relied on Xiao Ruge's method to enter the hotel without anyone recognizing them.
"Waiter, were there two people, a man and a woman, who looked pregnant, visiting your restaurant just now?"
Xiao Ruge walked up to a man dressed like a waiter and asked.
"Who are you? We are not allowed to ask about our guests' affairs here."
Xiao Ruge was just about to think of an excuse to ask the waiter to tell her, but she almost forgot that Mu Gu beside her was not a good-tempered person.
"Just say what you're told to say! Why do you have so much to say?"
Mu Gu talked very quickly. Xiao Ruge was startled and couldn't stop him. She raised her hand halfway, then turned and slapped Mu Gu on the back.
"I'm sorry, he's not very smart, please forgive me."
When the waiter heard the mustache man in front of him being so arrogant, he was about to ask someone to kick him out. But before he could open his mouth, he heard the person next to the man speak in a kind tone, and his anger instantly subsided.
Feeling that Mu Gu beside her wanted to say something, Xiao Ruge knew this man's temperament well. It was a typical case of "you can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth". She reached out her hand from under her wide robe and grabbed the flesh on Mu Gu's arm, twisting it a little. Sure enough, Mu Gu became obedient and stood beside her without any anxiety.
"The pregnant woman is my sister. Her husband passed away not long ago. I was worried that she might be caught by someone else and she would have a hard time living in her husband's family, so I wanted to keep an eye on her..."
The waiter was a sensible man, and when he heard this, his expression looked a little strange, as if he was laughing at a joke.
"I understand, I understand, but..."
The waiter came up to Xiao Ruge, stretched out his hand and twisted his fingers, his meaning was obvious.
Xiao Ruge smiled sensibly, and immediately touched her waist. Her heart skipped a beat. She had forgotten that she came out in a hurry today and had no time to prepare thoroughly. At this moment, she had no clothes on her.
Xiao Ruge quickly turned her head to look at Mu Gu, and as expected, she saw a smile on his face that looked like she was watching a show. In an instant, the unhappiness in her heart reached its peak.
"money."
Xiao Ruge was concise and clear, and she stretched out the hand that was holding Mu Gu in front of Mu Gu.
How could Mu Gu let go of such a good opportunity to tease his wife? He immediately shook his head and pretended not to understand.
"What money? I don't know."
Xiao Ruge looked at the shameless person in front of her, her eyes almost sparking from staring at him, and she spoke again with gritted teeth.
"hurry up."
This time the tone was different from before. Mu Gu trembled all over when he heard it. He quickly took off the purse from his waist and put it obediently in Xiao Ruge's hand.
There has to be a limit to teasing a woman, it would be bad if you overdo it.
After getting the purse, the gloom on Xiao Ruge's face disappeared. He poured out a few silver coins from the purse and put them into the hands of the shop assistant.
The waiter was already so shocked by the scene in front of him that his mouth was open. After Xiao Ruge put the silver in his hand, he finally reacted and took back his chin that was about to fall to the ground, and coughed awkwardly.
"Go up, go up."
The waiter shook the silver in his hand and moved aside to go upstairs.
Xiao Ruge nodded with satisfaction and pulled Mu Gu upstairs.
"You still need to use your brain when doing things outside."
Xiao Ruge walked in front proudly, with a rare lively expression on her face. Mu Gu raised the corner of his mouth and nodded quickly in response.
"Then it was my wife who had a way to get in without any effort."
Hearing Mu Gu's praise, Xiao Ruge hummed a few times with satisfaction.
"That's natural."
No matter how many things she has experienced, no matter how much hardship and hurt she has experienced, after all, she is still a young girl, and naturally it will not always be so deep.
Seeing Xiao Ruge becoming more lively day by day, with a vivid glow in her eyes, Mu Gu couldn't help but bend his eyes. Looking at Xiao Ruge jumping in front of him, Mu Gu swore that he would love Xiao Ruge as he would grow flowers.
"What are you dawdling for? Come over here, they'll be leaving soon."
"Okay, come right away!"
The two hid in the private room next to Xiao Mingyue. The private rooms in this restaurant were separated by screens, so the sound insulation was not very good. Xiao Ruge and Mu Gu were in the next room, so they could hear the conversation between Xiao Mingyue and Minister Yang clearly.
It was not until the two finally stopped talking and left the private room one after another that Xiao Ruge relaxed and lowered his head in thought.
"This Xiao Mingyue is really bold. She actually wants to get close to Minister Yang."
Mu Gu's words were so sudden that they broke Xiao Ruge's thoughts. However, Mu Gu's words aroused Xiao Ruge's curiosity.
"Why do you say that? Minister Yang is a very dangerous person?"
Mu Gu smiled and shook his head.
"That's not it."
This made Xiao Ruge even more curious. She knew very little about the people and things in the palace, but Mu Gu was often in the palace and must know a lot of things.
What Xiao Ruge found strange was that, since Minister Yang was not a dangerous person, why did it seem so courageous for Xiao Mingyue to ask Minister Yang for help?
"Then tell me, what is the reason?"
"Minister Yang is a very loyal person, and also a very cautious person."
As soon as Mu Gu finished speaking, Xiao Mingyue reacted immediately.
"So, Minister Yang may spend a long time to verify the truth of what Xiao Mingyue said."
Mu Gu curled his lips and nodded in praise.
"Smart, we can take advantage of this."
Hearing this, Xiao Mingyue suddenly realized that it would definitely not be an easy thing for Xiao Mingyue to meet the emperor, and this period of time would drag on for a long time.
Xiao Mingyue had always been eyeing them covetously. If they didn't take this opportunity to give Xiao Mingyue a fight from which they could not recover, once Lu Yu's identity was confirmed, they would never be able to prevent Xiao Mingyue from losing her ability to threaten them.
"I understand."
The two of them felt confident and walked out side by side. Just as they were about to go out, Mu Gu suddenly turned his head to the side.
"But, Ruge, Minister Yang is a good official."
When Xiao Ruge heard Mu Gu's words, she didn't react for a moment. After all, in her understanding, Mu Gu had always been a person who would do anything for profit. This sentence didn't sound like something he would say at all.
After Mu Gu finished speaking, he no longer looked at Xiao Ruge, nor did he see the expression of disbelief on Xiao Ruge's face. He only left a resolute jaw to Xiao Ruge.
The two walked in silence along the street, listening to the hawkers' calls on both sides, until silence returned.
Looking at Mu Gu's desolate profile, Xiao Ruge suddenly understood something. Perhaps Mu Gu's previous ruthless and unscrupulous behavior for the sake of profit was all a disguise. He put on a mask because he was afraid of being hurt and losing everything he had now.
