I opened a tea shop in Bianjing

Mo Yunxiao was still puzzled, and turned around to look at Ma Youxian blankly.

The latter explained: "We can pass the news through the watchtower, like a beacon tower. No matter inside or outside the city, my lady's friends will see it."

Mo Yunxiao was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "This is a good way."

Ma Youxian also smiled a little, then called an adjutant over, whispered a few words to him, and the latter was ordered to go,
Not long after, there was a "swish" sound from the watchtower, and a cloud-piercing arrow with flames flew straight into the starry night, and then turned into a gorgeous firework with a bang.

"This..." Mo Yunxiao looked at the fireworks, feeling a little uneasy.But Ma Youxian seemed to be confident, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Mo's don't have to worry about it. The military is expensive, and it's just the rights."

"Oh?" Mo Yunxiao looked back at him, not understanding the meaning of his words.

Ma Youxian didn't explain much, just said: "We just need to wait for a while." After finishing speaking, he strolled to the steps of the door of the Minglou and asked, "Can I sit in a humble position?"

"Please." Mo Yunxiao gestured to please sit down, and then he sat down slowly.

But Mo Yunxiao was not so leisurely, her heart was beating wildly due to anxiety, and she could only walk back and forth to relieve it a little.

It was only for a moment, but the sound of footsteps came from both ends of the street. "Quick! Quick!" Someone kept shouting.

Standing on tiptoe, Mo Yunxiao looked around, and saw countless black shadows rushing towards him.

These people don't wear armor, but they don't wear ordinary clothes. They look much fluffier than ordinary clothes.They also carried all kinds of strange equipment on their hands, shoulders and backs, and rushed over like a whirlwind.

The visitors from both sides stopped in front of the Minglou, and they all looked confused.

Their captain came out and asked loudly, "Where is the fire?"

Then Ma Youxian got up and came over, gave a military salute to the imperial army, and said: "My Ma Youxian, commander of the horse infantry of the imperial army, had to worry about alarming the submerged fire team. I am very sorry."

It was only then that Mo Yunxiao realized that it turned out that the person who came was the Submerged Fire Brigade, that is, the firefighters of the Song Dynasty.They got orders from the watchtower, thinking they would rush here when there was a fire, and then they saw the water dragons in their hands, the ladders, cloth pockets, and buckets on their backs, all of which were used to fight the fire.

Ma Youxian ordered people to use the watchtower to send out a signal to indicate that there was a fire near the Minglou. Mrs. Wei and Li Qingzhao must have seen it too. Out of concern, they would at least send someone back to check it out, so that they could be contacted.

Ma Youxian's magical effect lies in this.

The captains of the two submerged fire teams could only salute and greet each other when they saw that the other was the commander of the imperial army, but the displeasure on their faces could not be concealed.

Mo Yunxiao came forward, clasped her fists and said, "I'm really sorry, everyone, I'm still disturbed by this in the middle of the night. My little sister really has something difficult this time, so I have no choice but to get rid of it, hope Haihan."

One of the captains' eyes lit up and said, "You are Mo Yunxiao, the eldest lady of the Mo family, right?"

Mo Yunxiao nodded and said, "It's the slave."

"Oh!" The two slapped their thighs at the same time, looking very regretful.It was the same person who said just now: "Everyone in Tokyo doesn't know that Mrs. Mo has been favored by the holy family and has become the first female messenger in history. It is also our luck that Mrs. Mo is ordering us. Don't say it's just an empty trip. It is also willing to run ten times and a hundred times in empty space."

"Don't say that. What kind of female dispatch is just a play on the whim of the officials. It can't be taken seriously."

After a polite exchange between the two parties, the Submerged Fire Team withdrew.After seeing them off, Mo Yunxiao's smiling face gradually darkened.

Ma Youxian didn't notice the change in her expression, but said: "It seems that Mrs. Mo's name is better."

It was originally a flattering remark, but Mo Yunxiao let out a "hum", and returned to the Minglou with a somewhat angry look, only to hear a "bang", the door was tightly closed by her, and Ma Youxian couldn't help shivering.

Ma Youxian looked at the gloomy gate of Minglou, and couldn't help sighing: "This female Yan Luo has such a perverse temper? What do the officials like about her?"

"Hmph!" Zhang Di sneered, walked over and said, "All the women in the palace are soft and submissive, how can there be such a woman... with such a strong temper like Mo Yunxiao?"

Speaking of this, he did not forget to clear his throat to hide his guilty conscience.

"Does Zhang Neiguan know, why is she unhappy?" Ma Youxian asked.

Zhang Di put his hands into his wide sleeves and said: "Commander Ma doesn't know something, this girl...cough cough, this Mo Yunxiao has a strong temper, even if someone else's wife is favored by someone else, it's a matter of joy for the whole family , but she can't do it. She doesn't even care about the rewards and favors from the officials. It seemed like a stigma to her."

Ma Youxian couldn't help being speechless, grinning and said: "It's so weird, it's really rare in ancient and modern times."

Zhang Di shrugged his shoulders and said in a low voice: "Who says no. Fortunately, I am Chao Kuanren, and I have been sympathetic since the Taizu. Otherwise, who would tolerate her?"

With a "crash", Mo Yunxiao opened the door again, stood at the door and looked at them coldly.

The two of them thought she was listening to their conversation, they couldn't help trembling, and turned their faces away in a panic.

"The two of you are here to help me, how can you be left out in the cold. Come in, but my maids have all rested, and if the hospitality is not good, I still look at Haihan."

The two looked at each other and laughed. "No need, we'll wait outside." It was Ma Youxian who spoke.

"Let's come in, the friend waiting for the slave is here, we have to discuss it." When Mo Yunxiao spoke, there was a fierce majesty, and the two of them dared not disobey.

She turned her eyes again, looked at the imperial guards, and said, "My house is too small to accommodate these many people. Brothers will suffer some grievances outside."

After Mo Yunxiao finished speaking, she turned around and went in, without giving Ma Youxian and Zhang Di a chance to refute.The two had no choice but to enter the Minglou with apprehension.

When the two entered the door, they saw that the huge teahouse lobby was completely dark except for a small oil lamp flickering light, like a firefly in a dark valley, or a fire butterfly in an illusion.

Mo Yunxiao was fixing the tea set at the table with the oil lamp, making tinkling noises, with her back to them, without saying a word.

The two looked at each other and walked over cautiously.

Mo Yunxiao picked up the teapot and poured some boiling soup into the bowl, then put down the pot, picked up the tea whisk at hand, and stirred it "swish", just like modern people beat eggs.

Ma Youxian was behind her, feeling very restless, and wanted to say something to explain her, but he didn't know where to start.

He looked at Zhang Di next to him, intending to let him speak first.Zhang Di saw his intention and just kept shaking his head like a rattle.

Helpless, Ma Youxian had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak first. "Miss Mo, the official..."

"The two of you are here and sit down first. I have prepared two bowls of light tea. Please moisten your throat first." Mo Yunxiao interrupted him, and said unhurriedly: "The maids are resting, and the slaves are also waiting for you." I don't want to be disturbed, just serve this rough tea, and don't laugh at it."

Ma Youxian finally fell to the ground with his heart hanging, sat down with Zhang Di, and said politely: "The lady's words are serious. I will have no regrets in my life if I eat a cup of tea made by the lady herself. It's the official... "

Mo Yunxiao suddenly raised his eyes to look at him, and then he realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, so he slapped himself and stopped talking.

In a blink of an eye, two bowls of tea have been mixed.Mo Yunxiao handed it over and said, "Please use it."

Ma Youxian cupped his fists and said, "Thank you Mrs. Mo for your hospitality, we work for officials..."

Zhang Di suddenly bumped his elbow, signaling not to say more.Ma Youxian understood immediately, picked up the tea bowl and started to eat.

Mo Yunxiao just looked at them, before turning her mind to Zhao Ji, the door was suddenly knocked open with a "crash", and it was Mrs. Wei who rushed in.

"Helu!" Behind Mrs. Wei were two people dressed as peasants, who looked like tenants of his family.

Madam Wei saw that Mo Yunxiao was safe and sound, so she laughed and said, "Helu! I saw a message from the fire building, and thought that the tea building was drained, but nothing happened?"

Mo Yunxiao went up to her and grabbed her hand, and said with a smile: "If you don't use this method, I'm afraid I won't be able to see Yuru you."

She dragged her towards the table, and Ma Youxian and Zhang Di immediately stood up to greet her.

"It's all Commander Ma's ingenuity." Mo Yunxiao said with a smile.

"Oh?" Mrs. Wei was stunned for a moment, and then she understood, she couldn't help laughing and said, "I was blindfolded for a while, and I was concerned about it."

Mrs. Wei hadn't settled down yet, only hearing the sound of arguing coming from the door.

"Hmph! Let's leave this matter behind, you and I will go our separate ways, and we will never see each other again in this life!"

"If you don't see it, you won't see it. There are so many official girls in Tokyo, but I have never seen such a pervert like Mrs. Li!"

"I use sex? Okay! Just treat me as sex, but you, a big man, don't rush to the front when you encounter danger, but come to pull me instead. What's the reason for that!"

"Hmph! I also want to rush ahead. It's your horse. How can I catch up? I saw you meet a thief, and I'm afraid you will suffer. If I don't come to pull you, I will push you!"

……

It was a man and a woman who spoke, and Mo Yunxiao and Mrs. Wei were surprised when they heard it.Mo Yunxiao was about to watch, but Mrs. Wei held her back and said, "Don't look, it's Li Qingzhao and Zhao Mingcheng."

"They..." Before Mo Yunxiao could say anything, Li Qingzhao came striding forward angrily, followed closely by Zhao Mingcheng with a flushed face.

It's just that the two of them were surprised when they saw Mo Yunxiao and Mrs. Wei, and asked at the same time, "Why didn't you go into the water?"

Mrs. Wei chuckled, and said, "That's right, the Minglou didn't run out of water, on the contrary, it's the two of you who are quarreling with each other, and it's already gone out of water!"

After she finished speaking, she couldn't help laughing out loud. Mo Yunxiao wanted to hold back, but she couldn't help laughing when she saw the embarrassment of the two.

Ma Youxian and Zhang Di watched from the side, really didn't know how ridiculous it was, but it seemed inappropriate to see them laughing and not laughing, so they could only laugh a few times to accompany them.

Mo Yunxiao came over and took Li Qingzhao's hand, and asked with a smile, "You are here to help me find someone, why are you arguing again?"

"Hmph! Ask him!" Li Qingzhao lifted the horse-faced skirt, sat on a bench, and stepped on it with one foot at the same time.

Zhao Mingcheng was already angry, and seeing her like this made him even more annoyed, and said: "A scholarly family, a young man, how can he be a bit of a gentleman when he sits so carelessly!"

Li Qingzhao is also an unforgiving person, he got up suddenly and wanted to choke him, but seeing Mo Yunxiao's face, he just sneered and said: "Hey! Zhao Yanei is a good character, and he lost three souls when he met a thief. Fortunately, I met Xin'er from Wanghuo Tower, otherwise how could I get off the stage!"

"Li Qingzhao! You..." Zhao Mingcheng was furious, and shouted, "You don't look like a boudoir, but like a rascal in the market! Could it be that you didn't read "The Female Ring" when you were young, so you developed such a tricky temperament!"

"Hmph! You don't care about me!" Li Qingzhao said with his hands on his hips, "I'm not your wife. I don't care if I read "Nvjie" or not!"

Rao Li Qingzhao had a manly feeling, but he felt a little ashamed when he said this, so he sat down again in a hurry and did not speak. Only Zhao Mingcheng was trembling with anger, his tongue was tied up, and he was speechless.

Mrs. Wei came to persuade him again, saying: "Okay, okay, we are all He Lu's friends, when a friend is in trouble, we don't want to help, but fight on our own, what a shame."

As she spoke, she pulled Zhao Mingcheng to sit down, and asked, "Tell me, what's the matter? What kind of thief is not a thief?"

Zhao Mingcheng flicked his robe sleeves, sighed and said, "It's hard! Mrs. Wei, you asked me to go with that Mrs. Li ... the Li family, because she was a girl and asked me to take care of her. But who would have thought that this lady of the Li family would not Let me, sir, hear the servants say that they saw a thief outside the city, so they galloped away on a bay red horse, the servants only had two legs to keep up, fortunately there was another horse, but they could barely follow."

"Oh!" Mrs. Wei glanced back at Li Qingzhao, and continued to ask: "What happened next? Did you meet a thief?"

Zhao Mingcheng took a few sips of the water handed over by Mo Yunxiao, wiped his mouth, and said, "I didn't meet them, but I saw the corpses of two mountain people, smeared with blood, obviously they were killed by someone else." Poisonous."

Before he finished speaking, Li Qingzhao sneered again and again, and said, "That's right, I didn't see half a shadow, but only saw two corpses, so you drag me back to the city by force!"

"What if there are thieves nearby?" Zhao Mingcheng did not show weakness, and said, "Otherwise, those two people would not have died in the wild. The enemy's situation is unknown, so why not leave?"

These words were reasonable and restrained, Li Qingzhao could only take a deep breath and stopped choking with him.

"Haven't you seen anyone alive?" Mrs. Wei asked.

"No." Zhao Mingcheng shook his head dumbly.

Mo Yunxiao patted the table and said, "I want to see for myself."

"He Lu, please be safe and don't be impatient." Madam Wei pulled her to sit down again, and said: "Defu is right, the enemy's situation is unknown, so don't take risks lightly."

"I have the commander of the Forbidden Army to assist me, so am I still afraid of mere thieves?" Mo Yunxiao said with emotion.

Mrs. Wei smiled and said, "Yes, you are not afraid, but Yunxiang is."

Mo Yunxiao frowned, and was about to ask a question, but saw Mo Yunze and Song Wusao rushing in one after another.
