My Inn connects the past and the present

Chapter 46
Su Wanniang returned to the bottom of the mountain safely from Chen Qiqi's inn that day.

She knew that she was a bit dazzling, so she took off the raincoat that Chen Qiqi gave, and then made herself a little sloppy, and let her hair down to cover her appearance.

She walked all the way, and then looked back at the mountain. She felt that the inn in the mountain was her chance, so she planned to settle down in the nearby village.

But she took some time to inquire, and found that the nearby villages were not very good. The nearby villages were relatively xenophobic, and the village chief did not want her to settle down.

Su Wanniang had no choice but to leave here. In the end, she landed in a village with miscellaneous surnames ten miles away from the county seat.

Although it is a little far from that mountain, yes, she has heard about that mountain. All the nearby villages call that deep mountain Wugui Mountain. It is said that there are wolves and tigers in it, and there is no return.

Su Wanniang thought that she had indeed heard the howls of tigers and wolves.

The village where she settled is called Daxi Village. The village is full of mixed surnames, and the atmosphere is not bad. When she went to the village chief, the village chief looked at her household registration and asked her some information. After confirming that she could support herself, Then she was taken in.

Later, she learned that there were two other female households in Daxi Village.

Today, she followed the village head into the county seat to go to the county yamen to apply for the landed household registration, but after she entered the yamen, she was invited to the back hall by the arresting officer in the yamen.

This made her a little panic, not only her, but also the village chief.

They followed Zhu Kuai into the back hall, and it wasn't the county magistrate who saw him, but a son who was not angry and arrogant.

Su Wanniang and the village chief were cautious, not knowing what to do, when the county magistrate on the right spoke.

"You wait for the common people, but you still don't give your Royal Highness King Jing'an a greeting."

When Su Wanniang and the village chief heard the words, they hurriedly knelt down and asked for peace.

After a few breaths, Qi Yunshen let them get up.

He gave the magistrate a look, the magistrate took the village chief out, and then Su Wanniang and Qi Yunshen were left in the back hall.

Su Wanniang twitched her handkerchief nervously. Seeing this, Qi Yunshen said, "Don't worry, this king won't do anything to you, just ask you something."

"My lord, please tell me, the girls must know everything and say everything!" Su Wanniang replied respectfully.

Seeing this, Li Xuehan took out the stack of white papers she sold yesterday, and asked, "Have you been to Mount Wugui?"

Su Wanniang looked at the stack of white papers in Li Xuehan's hand, and nodded.

Li Xuehan asked again, "Have you seen the proprietress of Qixia Inn?"

Su Wanniang nodded: "I have seen it."

Now Qi Yunshen and the others can be sure that Su Wanniang has indeed been to Qixia Inn.

They didn't plan to do anything to her, they just hoped that something could be in their hands.

Now that I have understood, naturally there is nothing to do with Su Wanniang.

Li Xuehan said, "Don't tell anyone about your trip to Wugui Mountain."

When Su Wanniang heard the words, she said quickly, "The girl understands."

Qi Yunshen, who was at the top, nodded and finally said a word: "This king's palace is currently lacking some embroidered screens, don't let this king down!"

When Su Wanniang heard it, she immediately understood that King Jingan had given an excuse to see her.

She hurriedly knelt and thanked.

After she came out, the village chief greeted her and asked, "Miss Su, what's going on?"

Su Wanniang explained with a smile: "Don't worry about the village chief, my mother was a somewhat famous embroiderer before her death. Prince Jing'an has heard of my mother's name and wants me to embroider a screen for him."

The village head listened and nodded: "That's it!"

He and the county magistrate just thought that King Jing'an had a crush on her.

At first, Qi Yunshen really wanted to put Su Wanniang in the back house and put it under his nose, but after thinking about it, that's fine.

However, he had already planned to let Zhangqiu lead a group of people pretending to be escorts to find a place to build an inn at the foot of Wugui Mountain.

He plans to do a long-term business with Shopkeeper Chen.
