Mu Yunjin came to the market alone, she does not know whether its because the black market brought her the strongest impression, at this time walking in an ordinary street, Mu Yunjin felt that this busy street is a little dull.


Finding a small restaurant, Mu Yunjin found a corner to sit down, ordered a few dishes, then supported her head, watching the people on the street coming and going.


"Meow"


She had just sat down when cat sound came from one side.


Mu Yunjin is startled, when she looked to the side she saw Qiqi wearing a black robe with a big brim covering the cat's ears on her head.


"Qiqi?"


Seeing Qiqi appeared here, Mu Yunjin is a little surprised.


"Yes, it's me."


Qiqi sat on the opposite side of Mu Yunjin and raised her lips.


"Originally, Qiqi thought that there was something wrong with the pavilion's mark, but I didn't think it is really master who came."


Came?


Mu Yunjin caught the meaning in Qiqi's words and looked up at Qiqi.


"The Phoenix Feather Pavilion is here?"


"Yes, it's just along the stream in the outskirts."


Qiqi replied.


Mu Yunjin's eyebrows slightly twisted. Outskirts? Along the stream? Is that the place where Chu Li pulled her to wash her hands?


"Then there is a Phoenix Feather Pavilion below the stream?"


Mu Yunjin inwardly sighed.


Qiqi nodded, poured a gla.s.s of water, drank a mouthful.


"The pavilion just shone a mark indicating that the master has appeared in the city of Zhang Zhou, many subordinates want to see you, the new pavilion owner. "


"So Qiqi came to see master specifically to ask you if you would like to go to the pavilion with Qiqi and meet the other subordinates?"


Mu Yunjin subconsciously shook her head and refused.


No, no, I'm not ready to meet them, and I'm here with Chu Li today."


When Mu Yunjin's words fell, she pursed her lips, and inwardly thought that right now she is a tactless and impulsive person, how can she be suitable to be the owner of the pavilion. If by chance those thoughts can be seen in her subordinates, disappointing them would not be good.


"Then, we will listen to the master."


Qiqi smiled, and then the waiter came with a few dishes. Qiqi sniffed and then she looked up and said:


"Wow, there's a braised fish."


"Boss, add a pair of bowls and chopsticks."


The next moment Mu Yunjin ate her meal, most of her attention is focused on Qiqi eating the fish in front of her.


Looking at the small dishes stacked on one side, she heard Qiqi shout:


"Boss, prepare me a braised fish, a steamed fish, a sweet and sour fish! "


"Okay!"


Mu Yunjin pulled the corners of her lips to smile. She looked at Qiqi's cat ears under her hat and raised an eyebrow. She said teasingly:


"Kitty, aside from fondness of eating fish, don't cats like to eat mice? Do you eat mice?"


"Pei!"


Qiqi immediately spits out a mouthful of fish and wrinkled her little face and looked at Mu Yunjin.


"Master, I'm a cat spirit, half human and half cat. Mice are not human food."


Mu Yunjin laughed and looked at her bitter face and jokingly said:


"OK, OK, then continue eating the fish."


……….


"I'm so full."


Half an hour later, Qiqi sat on a chair, burping and gently touching her stomach.


With a smile in her eyes, Mu Yunjin glanced at the empty dishes above the table. Suddenly she thought of Chu Li who was still in the house. She didn't know if he had eaten.


Thinking of it, Mu Yunjin called the waiter and ordered a few dishes to be packed for take away.


Qiqi looked at this scene and shook her head helplessly.


"Are all married women like you?"


"Cough.…..."


Mu Yunjin choked on a mouthful of tea, hearing Qiqi mention about Chu Li, can not help but think something.


"By the way, that day I entrusted you to investigate the Flower Moon house, do you know their whereabouts?"


"Of course."


Qiqi raised her eyebrows, she gulped and looked around and moved closer to Mu Yunjin.


"In the whole Canghua continent, there is a place called Flower Moon house, there is a place called Moon Flower House, and both of them are brothels.


"Where?"


Mu Yunjin looked at Qiqi, waiting for her following words.


Qiqi smiled and said:


"The Flower Moon House is in Xiyuan country's Shen Yao City, and the Moon Flower house is in Dong Lin country. but I don't know if there is any connection between the two brothels."


Shen Yao City….


Mu Yunjin frowned slightly. She had never heard of this city before, and she didn't know if that Flower Moon house is the one that is behind Chu Qingqiang.


The Moon Flower house in Dong Lin could be just a coincidence.


"How far is Shen Yao city from here?"


Mu Yunjin looks toward Qiqi to ask.


"About two hours."


Replied Qiqi.


After a pause, Qiqi seemed to have thought of something, so she added:


"Master, have you never heard of Shen Yao City? That Shen Yao City Lord, Qu Xinyao, is a strange woman."


"What is so strange about the woman?"


Mu Yunjin raised her brows a little, but she is a little curious.


"That Shen Yao City, is originally called Shen Jia City, but was renamed Shen Yao city, that is exactly a h.o.m.onym of Qu Xinyao's name. Qu Xinyao is 21 years old, and is like a Xiongmei of the Qin family's. She studied under Qiuye Daoren. She is the Qin family's eldest senior apprentice and practiced martial arts."


"Later, When Qu Xinyao is at the age of eighteen, the current Xi Ming Emperor visited Qiuye Mountain, he took a fancy to her and asked her to enter the palace as his concubine. Qu Xinyao would rather die than to follow suit, and the Xi Ming Emperor took soldiers to Qiuye Mountain to fight, and guess what?"


"With her own strength, she destroyed more than 500 soldiers and made the Xi Ming Emperor look silly on the spot and dare not mention receiving her as an Imperial concubine again. But Qu Xinyao killed within Qiuye Mountain, disgracing her teacher's school, she was expelled out of Qiuye Mountain sect. Later, it was said that the Xi Ming Emperor really admired Qu Xinyao. Seeing that she had been expelled from the sect, he gave her the city of Shenjia as its owner. This Qu Xinyao is a willful person, on the first day of her tenure, she already changed its name from Shen Jia City to Shen Yao City."


"The Xi Ming Emperor opened one eye and closed the other eye on this matter. Today, among the numerous cities in Xi Yuan Country, Qu Xinyao governed Shen Yao City in a well and orderly management. "


Mu Yunjin listened to Qiqi's words and nodded understandingly. She also admired Qu Xinyao in her heart.


However, just now, Mu Yunjin heard about her being the Qin family's Xiongmei, Mu Yunjin sighed slightly.


"So, they used to be on the same sect."


"Yes, but these years, it seems that Qu Xinyao hates the Qin family very much. Not long ago, the Xi Ming Emperor invited her to attend the Qin family's celebration banquet. He was refused by Qu Xinyao, and attached a sentence --"


Qiqi thought for a moment and touched her ear. After a while, she remembered and exclaimed.


"She said that a despicable person's feast, is it worthy of her personal partic.i.p.ation?"


Despicable person……


Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows and smiled lightly.


"This Qu Xinyao is really interesting."


"I heard it from the most knowledgeable in the Pavilion, Yu Popo. Yu Popo also said that there was some ambiguous relationship between Qu Xinyao and River Moon City's new City Lord Xu Heyu!"


……….


Time unconsciously pa.s.sed by for more than one hour. Mu Yunjin and Qi Qi chatted for a long time before they stopped talking. After checking out, they came out of the restaurant.


Mu Yunjin held several warm meals in her hand and looked at Qi Qi beside her.


"I'm going back. You should go back early."


Qi Qi nodded, smelled the meals in Mu Yunjin's hands, and smiled at Mu Yunjin.


"Thank you for your hospitality today."


Mu Yunjin smiled, reached out her hand across Qiqi's hat, and stroked the cat's ears.


"Really cute!"


"Miao, miao, miao~"


Qiqi purred from Mu Yunjin's pampering, then she waved her hand and disappeared in the street.


Mu Yunjin helplessly shook her head and carried the food walking back to the house.


After returning to the courtyard, the door of the house was still closed. When Mu Yunjin pushed the door and went in, Chu Li and Huang Yan were sitting there playing chess.


Seeing that it was chess again, Mu Yunjin sighed and went over to put the food in her hand on the table.


"Eat while its hot."


Chu Li glanced at the food brought by Mu Yunjin, holding the white go piece he was slightly startled.


Seeing Chu Li didn't move for a while, Mu Yunjin slightly raised an eyebrow.


"Why, not to your liking?"


"No."


Chu Li shook his head, picked up his chopsticks, and unhurriedly picked some food.


Mu Yunjin saw the scene, hooked her lips and smiled. She sat down on the chair and looked at the chessboard in front of her. She said:


"What's good about this chessboard? Huang Yan never won it."


"Pfff…."


Huang Yan sprayed some food and wiped his mouth.


"Hey, don't look down on me. I'm also an awesome gambler."


"Have you won?"


Mu Yunjin raised an eyebrow, and gave a probing look.


Meeting Mu Yunjin's slightly deep look, Huang Yan felt a little guilty, drooping his eyes he whispered


"No..."


"That's all right."


Mu Yunjin shrugged her shoulders and poured herself a cup of water. She just talked with Qiqi for a long time, but now she is really thirsty.


After drinking a few mouthfuls of water, Mu Yunjin thought of what Qiqi said just now about Shen Yao City. She could not help looking at Chu Li.


"Do you have any secret matters in Shen Yao City?"


Chu Li lowered his chopsticks and frowned slightly.


"Why do you ask?"


"River Moon city and Zhang Zhou City are not fun. I want to see Shen Yao city."


Mu Yunjin replied.


Chu Li heard her words and gave a faint Hmmm. After a while, he drew an unintelligible smile across his lips.


"I'm afraid that Shen Yao City is more boring to you."


"Why?"


Mu Yunjin slightly furrowed her eyebrows and seemed to not understand Chu Li's meaning.


"Next time you will know."


Chu Li replied.


Chu Li's words, Mu Yunjin does not really understand, but listening to him say next time, she can only guess what business Chu Li may have in Shen Yao City, or the story behind them, maybe at another time they will go to Shen Yao City.


Thinking of it, Mu Yunjin smiles.


"This is for you."


A glimpse of the smile on Mu Yunjin's face, Chu Li drew out a silver banknote from his sleeve and handed it to Mu Yunjin.


Mu Yunjin reached out and took the silver banknote. Her face was smiling more. She put it in her arms with satisfaction and looked at Chu Li with admiration.


"Your work is efficient and really fast."


"Hey, hey, hey, I won that money, and I also changed it to silver banknote, shouldn't you be thanking me?"


Huang Yan interrupted on the side.


Mu Yunjin heard him, raised her eyebrows and pointed to Chu Li beside him.


"You call him Gongzi, I am the Gongzi's Furen, the gongzi wants you to do something for his furen, this is your job."


Huang Yan choked at the words of Mu Yunjin and after a while he could not think of any reb.u.t.tal words.


His eyes called for help towards Chu Li, but he saw Chu Li's countenance at this time gave a faint smile, a gentle look flitted past his eyes as he looked towards Mu Yunjin.


Huang Yan stared at the scene like he had seen a ghost. He and Chu Li had known each other for five years. In the past five years, he had never seen him laugh once. He always looked cold and indifferent.


Today is really like seeing a ghost, towards a woman, he could actually smile so tender.
