I opened a tea shop in Bianjing

Chapter 35 The Incident
This night was also a moonless night with few stars.Mo Yunxiao sat alone in the gazebo, looking at the bright moon in the sky.

The night Bo Sung was killed.The same night wind is blowing, the same moon is as bright as day.Mo Yunxiao looked at the bright and clear moon, his thoughts were racing, and his heart was in a mess.

She laughed secretly at herself for being so stupid that she really wanted to use other people's bodies to fight against the so-called evil forces.It's really a trick of luck, the original owner of this body may be a member of the evil force.Thinking of this, she couldn't help but laugh.

While she was thinking wildly, she suddenly heard a loud cry of a baby.Shocked, she turned her head to look at the source of the sound.The crying sound seemed to come from behind the rockery in the courtyard.

"Da Lang, don't be too aggressive, you'll scare this baby. Come, let me hug you." It was Li Xian'e who spoke, coming from the same direction.

Mo Yunxiao became curious, so she stepped lightly and tiptoed towards the direction of the rockery.

"Do you think our teahouse is Anjiyuan?" Mo Chenglin's voice was always serious: "You can fool my ignorant daughter, but you can't fool me. Hmph! A man with a strong physique like you, how can you look like a woman?" Fleeing from famine? Even if you are fleeing from famine, you should report to Kaifeng Mansion when you come to Tokyo. There is a government to resettle the refugees, but what are you doing here?"

"Master Mingjian!" The man buckled his knees, knelt down, bowed again and again, and said, "To tell the truth, the government is exploiting layer upon layer, and the relief food allocated by the court is in our hands. It's just a few grains of brown rice. How do you live? The little one has only such a little flesh and blood, and I really can't bear to give it up, so I came to vote in Minglou." He said with deep feelings, and after speaking, he kowtowed, even Li Xianye couldn't bear it .

While comforting the child, she said, "Da Lang, it doesn't look like what he said is a lie."

Mo Chenglin asked again: "Since that's the case, you are strong and strong, why don't you go stretching on the canal to make a living?"

"I do have this idea." The man replied: "It's just that the baby in my arms is unattended. This is a girl. I heard that the Cao Gang has some kind of fan outside the city." The building only accepts girls, and the younger ones are afraid that the baby will be abducted by them."

"Ghost Fan Tower?" Mo Chenglin frowned, quite puzzled, and said, "Fan Tower is Fan Tower, why is it called Ghost Fan Tower?"

The man sighed and said, "In Tokyo, there is no one who doesn't know about Fan Lou. But Fan Lou earns clean money. But that ghost Fan Lou is a completely evil shop. They abduct, buy, or cheat, and take the good family The women go away and do the dirty things. At night, the lights are all over the sky, the women cry, and the men laugh. Because they only do business at night, they are called ghost fan buildings. And...and..."

The man hesitated to speak, but Mo Chenglin couldn't help being annoyed, and asked, "And what?"

"They also threatened that one day they would also kidnap the three girls from the Mo family and make them the number one princesses!" the man said.

After hearing this, Mo Chenglin slapped his palm on the stone table with a "slap", stared with angry eyes, and shouted: "I never thought that the emperor's feet would be so full of filth! Does Sheng Zhang just ignore it?"

The man said submissively, "I'm afraid Mr. Sheng also visits often."

"It's so unreasonable!" Mo Chenglin jumped up from the stone bench, pacing back and forth with his hands clasped behind his back, with a look of indignation on his face.

Mo Yunxiao, who was hiding behind the rockery, saw it and felt mixed emotions in her heart: "I think the old man really loves his daughter. But that ghost Fanlou is really abominable, and he did such an outrageous thing!"

"Baby don't cry, baby don't cry..." Li Xian'e comforted the child in her arms, then raised her head and said to Mo Chenglin: "Da Lang, why bother to meddle in other people's business. There are so many injustices in the world, how can we be able to do it?" You can handle everything!"

Mo Chenglin ignored her.He paused, turned around and asked the man, "What's your name?"

"The younger one's name is Yuan Lu." The man replied.

"Yuan Lu?" Mo Yunxiao was shocked, thinking: "I seem to have heard this name somewhere, but I can't remember it for a while."

Mo Chenglin said again: "Okay, you follow me to this ghost fan building. I want to see who of them dares to tie my daughter!"

Li Xian'e also got up quickly, and persuaded: "Da Lang, don't be arrogant. Why do we bother with idlers asking for a cheap price?"

Mo Chenglin stared at her and said, "You stay at home so well, I'll come back as soon as I go." Then he left.

Mo Yunxiao hurriedly went up to meet her, and called out, "Daddy!"

Mo Chenglin and Yuan Lu stared blankly at each other.Mo Yunxiao looked at Yuan Lu and felt that he looked very familiar, but she just couldn't remember where she had seen him.But he has no time to think about other things at the moment, he just said to Mo Chenglin: "Daddy, my daughter can't stop you, why don't we go together. I know some skills, and I can protect you well."

There was a trace of affection in Mo Chenglin's eyes, but this affection was fleeting, and turned into a resolute gaze like a sharp knife.

"You also stay at home, don't go anywhere. When I come back, I have to prepare for your marriage." Mo Chenglin walked a few more steps, and suddenly said: "What if... even if I go underground, I will have no face to see you." Your mother." After speaking, she took Yuan Lu away with great strides.

Hearing this, Mo Yunxiao was moved, not knowing whether it was joy or sorrow.Looking at the backs of Mo Chenglin and Yuan Lu, she frowned unconsciously.

"Helu." Li Xian'e walked up to meet him slowly, and said worriedly: "I'm afraid that your father's departure will be bad or bad."

Mo Yunxiao forced a smile and said, "Third Mistress is relieved, Daddy has his own measure."

Li Xian'e caressed the back of the baby in her arms, and the baby had already fallen into a deep sleep.She also smiled faintly and said, "May the Bodhisattva bless you so that everything goes well for Dalang."

Mo Yunxiao smiled and said, "Third Grandma believes in Buddhism?"

Li Xian'e was a little embarrassed, and said, "I'm ashamed, I have been offering sacrifices to the Bodhisattva for ten years."

"Oh." Mo Yunxiao said: "Presumably the Bodhisattva will protect Dad because of the sincerity of Third Mistress."

Li Xian'e didn't speak, but was still uneasy.

At this moment, Li Xianye and Mo Yunxiao seemed to have turned enemies into friends, and the rift between them seemed to have never existed.

The night market in Tokyo City is as brilliant as the day, from Tianjie to Majie to West Street, especially on both sides of the Bian River, there are really many tourists, and the shouts of shop assistants come and go.

Mo Chenglin and Yuan Lu each took a horse and walked through the crowd.Their faces were stern, and they walked fast, forming a sharp contrast with the surrounding environment.

When they crossed the state bridge, the number of pedestrians decreased sharply, and they all rode their horses towards the direction of Suzaku Gate.

A few sparse soldiers guarded the Suzaku gate.Mo Chenglin didn't pay attention to it either, and was about to go over with his horse.But the soldier flashed his halberd and shouted: "Who broke the door!" Mo Chenglin reined in the horse's reins, and the horse neighed and stopped.

Mo Chenglin was a little strange. Normally, the gates of the city were wide open, and merchants and tourists could come in and out at will, but why did they have to interrogate them today.

But he still didn't get off his horse, and replied condescendingly: "Master Jun, next to me is Mo Chenglin, the shopkeeper of the Minglou. He is going out of the city to do some errands. I hope Mr. Jun will make it easier for him."

When the soldier heard that it was Mo Chenglin, he couldn't help but grinned: "Oh, so it's the treasurer Mo Da of Minglou. I heard that your daughter-in-law was going to choose a son-in-law a few days ago, and there was a lot of trouble in the city. What's the matter? Could it be that the new son-in-law didn't want to serve this man?" Female Yan Luo, ran out of the city, and shopkeeper Mo went after him personally?"

After finishing his sentence, all the soldiers burst out laughing.

Mo Chenglin was furious, but the other party was the imperial army after all, so he was not easy to offend, so he could only say: "No, I will meet an old friend when I go out of the city. Is this not allowed?"

The soldier laughed loudly and said, "If it's someone else, of course it would be allowed, but shopkeeper Mo won't allow it."

Mo Chenglin stared and asked, "Why?"

"Hey, then you have to ask our Marquis Qiu Yu!" The soldier said and pointed behind him, and sure enough, he saw a military leader walking out of the shadows while gnawing on sugarcane.This person has two mustaches, squinting and smiling.

Mo Chenglin was taken aback, knowing something was wrong. "Yuan Lu! Yuan Lu!" He looked around, but Yuan Lu was nowhere to be seen.

"Oh! I was fooled!" Mo Chenglin suddenly realized.That Yuan Lu clearly colluded with Qiu Yuhou to frame her.

"Okay, stop yelling." Qiu Feng chewed the sugar cane, and said impatiently: "The shopkeeper Mo has always been cautious. If he didn't love his daughter, he would not come here rashly. I am really moved."

Mo Chenglin snorted coldly, and said: "I am a legally beloved man, even if the government wants to kill me, there must be a crime."

Qiu Feng slammed half of the sugarcane in his hand, and said angrily, "How dare you be arrogant! You were originally a small school in the Western Army. You escaped in the chaos of the army 30 years ago, and then you started a tea business. Hmph! I'm right! Right or wrong!"

Mo Chenglin was startled, and asked, "You say I'm a fugitive from the army, do you have evidence!"

"Your mount is the certificate!" Qiu Feng snarled, then smiled coldly, looked at the white horse, and said: "As I expected, the one riding under Mo's crotch is clearly a large horse used in the army. Wan Famous Horse!"

Hearing this, Mo Chenglin felt a little flustered.He was indeed a deserter in the army, and he took more than a dozen good horses with him.On weekdays, these horses of his are bred in the stables, and occasionally Mo Yunxiao will ride them outside the city for a gallop.It's just that although this horse is a steed, not many people know it, even Kaifeng Governor Shengzhang has never seen such a good horse.So nothing happened for decades.But this Qiu Feng also came from the Western Army.He took a look and knew it was a military horse.

Seeing that he was silent, Qiu Feng said triumphantly: "How? Shopkeeper Mo will go with us by himself? Or will the brothers invite you to go?"

Mo Chenglin stared suddenly.His gaze was like an arrow like a halberd, and all the soldiers, including Qiu Feng, backed away in shock.

He suddenly raised his head and laughed loudly, and said, "I didn't expect that I would be cautious for half my life, but I would end up in the hands of this scorpion! Forget it! I will give you a credit!"
