The servant boy Boru went into the room to wash up Zhou Xu, and changed all the sweat-soaked sheets and pillow covers.

"Master Xiaolou said that he is a little tired and can't serve the prince, so he is resting in the room." Bo Ru rolled his eyes to observe Zhou Xu's face.

Zhou Xu nodded, took a sip of last night's tea to moisten his throat: "Don't prepare my king's dinner, let the cook make some peach blossom rice porridge, and send it to Xiaolou when he wakes up."

After washing up, Zhou Xu wandered around the yard alone twice, turned around several corridors, and unconsciously walked outside the door of the small building.It was getting dark, and the house was not lit. It seemed that the small building was too tired last night, and people had already rested.

Just as Zhou Xu was about to turn around and leave, he heard a cough in the room and stopped again.He raised his hand and wanted to knock on the door, but he still didn't knock, hesitating for a while, that's all.

He turned around and strode out of the inner courtyard.

Zhou Xu felt extremely irritable.

I think it’s been a winter in this virtuous king’s exorcism, every day is either to heal his wounds or go to the palace, except for the palace and the palace, he has no chance to go to other places. It is said that the capital is a prosperous place, and Xuan Gai leaves in the early morning.Now that the injury is healed and the weather is getting warmer, why not go shopping tonight?By the way, I found an authentic Yangzhou restaurant, but I missed the squirrel mandarin fish.

Wonderful, wonderful, think of squirrel mandarin fish and move your index finger. If you find a few bright and attractive girls to sing ditties, and go to the casino in the capital to throw a few dice, it will be more beautiful.

What a beautiful day, what a day, why bother to hold back in this palace and think about such a bunch of shit?

As soon as Zhou Xu walked to the front hall and was about to go out, Xu Bo stopped him.This Uncle Xu has worked in the Xianwang Mansion since he was a child, and has worked for more than 50 years. Now he is the chief internal affairs officer of the Xianwang Mansion. Everyone treats him with courtesy.

"My lord, you are going out, how many guards will this old servant prepare for you?"

Zhou Xu quickly waved his hand: "Don't, I just want to go out to relax by myself, and they are so restrained." Zhou Xu thought, if someone keeps staring at him for wandering, eating, admiring beauties and gambling, it would be too aggrieved, so he continued Said: "Uncle Xu, don't send anyone to follow me secretly, I just want to go alone." The tone of the word "alone" is emphasized.

"My lord, it's against the rules for you to go out alone." Xu Bo looked at Zhou Xu with a wrinkled old face.

"I can change the rules of the palace." Zhou Xu also made up his mind to go alone to relax.

"My lord," Xu Bo said with a smile, "This...mainly because you have too many enemies, I'm afraid if you go out alone..."

Zhou Xu recalled, that's right, this virtuous king is the world's biggest dude, he has done so many evil things and made so many enemies, even if he sits at home, he can attract assassins, and he might be captured as soon as he goes out.

Just when Zhou Xu was at a loss, Xu Bo smiled and continued, "But this old servant has an idea. I don't know if the prince is willing."

When Zhou Xu heard that he had a solution, he immediately smiled, "Uncle Xu, please tell me!"

Uncle Xu brought his old face to Zhou Xu's ear and muttered to himself for a while. Zhou Xu's eyes widened, his brows stretched out, and he praised him wonderfully.

Uncle Xu retreated half a cup of tea, and when he came out again, he was holding a square box in his hand.He opened the box in a serious manner, and Zhou Xu took a look, oh boy, there are more than a dozen human︱leather masks in a box, each of which has a similar appearance, and none of them are repeated in the slightest.

Zhou Xu picked up one of the white skins, felt soft and smooth in his hands, and touched it as if touching a living human face. It can be seen that the workmanship is exquisite and meticulous, and it is the top grade among human leather masks.

"Uncle Xu, why do you have such a thing?" Zhou Xu asked with a grin as if he had found a treasure.

"Back to the lord, this is left by the old slave's father, and it is my father's blessing to be able to use it for the lord."

It turns out that Uncle Xu's father was once a young prodigy with thousands of faces in the rivers and lakes. Later, he was rescued by the old prince. He vowed to be loyal to the prince for life. After his death, his son continued to serve the palace.

The little prodigy with thousands of faces is mediocre in martial arts, but he is a first-class master of disguise. It was once rumored in the world that it is difficult to buy a leather mask made by the little prodigy with thousands of faces. How many people have used his mask to escape the pursuit of their enemies? .

With this box of human︱leather mask, Zhou Xu's incarnation will never be a problem.

With Xu Bo's assistance, Zhou Xu put on the mask, and Xu Bo sculpted his eyebrows and eyes, and changed into a half-old moon-white robe with straight breasts and a wide coarse cloth belt around his waist.There was no crown, and the hair was loosely tied with a silver ribbon. Zhou Xu looked in front of the mirror and saw that he was no longer a virtuous king.

Although not as handsome and handsome as Xian Wang, he is still a gentle scholar, but he looks poor and weak.

In Xu Bo's words, the word "transformation" not only requires superb craftsmanship, but also the know-how, that is, it should not be too eye-catching, not too showy, and the wealth should not be exposed, and the beauty should not be exposed.Those who turn themselves into beautiful men and beautiful women are all nonsense. Think about it, if you are too good-looking and well-dressed, and everyone is staring at you, there is no guarantee that there will be no problems. After all, disguise is a fake.

Zhou Xu felt that Uncle Xu's words were very reasonable, so he looked at his new appearance with satisfaction, and the more he looked at it, the happier he became.

So contentedly carrying a stack of bank notes, she left the back door of the palace.

Zhou Xu came to a restaurant in Yangzhou that seemed to be quite authentic.

After entering the door, because it was time to eat, the restaurant was full of people. Zhou Xu saw that the seat by the window had been taken, so he randomly found a corner and sat down.

Maybe it was because Zhou Xu was poorly dressed, and the waiter was not very enthusiastic, so he took the order list listlessly.Since she was a child in the brothel, she was used to being coldly looked at by others, so Zhou Xu didn't mind.

"Red stewed eel, clear stewed crab powder lion head, bad mud snails, boiled dried shredded...well...then come Sixi glutinous rice balls, raw meat and lotus root clips, bamboo shoots, red bean yuanxiao, five kernel cakes, scallion shortbread, shrimp Seed dumpling noodles, let’s start with these.” Zhou Xu went through it again in his mind, as if he didn’t have anything to eat for the time being, he wanted to drink two taels of Hua Diao, but Xian Wang is a three-cup drinker.

Xiao Er's eyes widened: "Guest officer, how many are you?"

"Just me."

Seeing that Xiao Er was still in a daze and didn't go to order the food, Zhou Xu suddenly understood.He took out a 50 taels of silver bill and put it on the table unhurriedly, saying: "If it is not enough, make up for it. If there is too much, you don't need to make up for it. Give it to the guys."

The waiter picked up the silver bills with both hands, thanked the guest officer with a smile on his face, and graciously changed Zhou Xu to a bigger table, first wiped the table and chairs with a rag, and then wiped it with his sleeve: "Guest Wait a minute, sir." Then he rushed to order the food.

When did Zhou Xu go to a restaurant so beautifully? Although he was happy in his heart, he pretended to be used to it.

Sigh, this virtuous king's skin is really useful.

Zhou Xu picked up a piece of lion's head and was about to put it in his mouth. Suddenly, two people entered the restaurant, a man and a woman, both with long swords hanging from their waists. Zhou Xu took a quick glance and knew that they were brothers and sisters from the same school.This young girl walked in the front, with a slim figure and pretty appearance, wearing a long taupe-colored brocade dress, which was indescribably bright and charming, and was very eye-catching in the tavern.

Seeing that the restaurant was overcrowded, only the small table in the corner where Zhou Xu planned to sit was left, Xiao Er led the two of them to sit there.When the girl passed by Zhou Xu, she quietly said to the boy, "Hey, why does this scholar occupy such a big table by himself?" in a rather dissatisfied tone.The man said: "If you come early, you can sit down."

Zhou Xu didn't have any good points, except that he had good ears. He heard the conversation between the two of them verbatim.Zhou Xu thought about it boredly, picked up another piece of Wuren Cake and savored it carefully.

After tasting one or two yuan of each dish, Zhou Xu felt a little overwhelmed, asked Xiaoer to serve a pot of tea, and drank it slowly. He still had so much money, so he thought about going to a gambling hall to have fun later. a joy.

"Guest officer, it's not easy for us to open the door to do business. If everyone is like you, we will lose money."

"Why don't you know how to be flexible? It's not that I don't plan to give you money. Brother and I are not free-spirited people. Next time we come to the capital, we will give it to you. Are you still afraid that I, Muyin, will not pay my bills?" ?”

Zhou Xu's train of thought was interrupted, and following the prestige of the dispute, it turned out that the two men and women had fallen in love with the waiter.

"Girl, if everyone talks like you, we're really going to close down." The waiter looked like he was about to cry.

"Who! Who dares to renege?! Don't leave this door without paying money today." A fat-headed middle-aged man yelled in a loud voice, and came with a few men who looked like thugs, probably the owner of the restaurant.

"Whoever wants to renege, I, Muyin, will never renege!" The girl's face flushed red, and she felt even more pretty in Zhou Xu's eyes.But compared to the small building, it is still a few levels behind, Zhou Xu thought about it, and secretly felt that he was abnormal.

"You gave us the money, so we let him go!" The boss had a chubby belly, and his aura didn't decrease but increased.Several thugs also put on a fight pose.

"You!" The girl held the hilt of the sword with her right hand, as if she was about to draw the sword.

"Yin'er, don't do it!" The boy held down the girl's sword-drawing hand, and said in a calm and peaceful voice, "Brother, I'm very sorry, but our purse was stolen just now, and we don't have any money with us. Press the sword here, and bring money to pick it up in half a day."

"Who wants your broken sword! You just want to renege on your debt and run away!" The boss was spitting wildly excitedly.

"Then I will stay here and ask my junior sister to withdraw money to pay the bill, so that we can't run away." The boy continued, with a calm tone, which is very rare.

"If you want to keep this little girl, why should I keep it, you old man?" The boss said frivolously, and the thugs around laughed.

The girl was so angry that her face was flushed, and she couldn't hold back anymore and drew out her sword and cursed: "You brazen thing." The boy quickly held her down and said, "Yin'er, it's our fault."

Zhou Xu noticed that the young man's martial arts were far superior to those of the young girl, and he was also graceful, straightforward and clear, with a heroic look in his eyes. They were really pleasing to the eye.

I wanted to save him, but after a second thought, Xu Boxiu explained that it must not attract attention. Although this man︱leather mask was made by the little prodigy with thousands of faces, after all, the effect will be less effective after a long time, plus Xu Boxiu Rong's craftsmanship is far inferior to that of his father, if he fails to do so, he will be seen through, so don't be impulsive.

This young man looks a little familiar.Zhou Xu recalled for a while, this kind of person who is graceful, bright and clear, should not be forgotten after meeting him once, who is this person...

This man is! ! !

Yes, Zhou Xu recalled, and gasped.

This person is the young assassin who broke into the palace every night and stabbed him!
