A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 491: Happy Buddha Looking for Relatives

The two of them had just walked down Bowangpo and were about to return to the city when they met an acquaintance head-on.

When Yuan Wuyou saw Wei Xiangyuan taking a walk, she thought about how he was angry with her and Gao Yanzong as soon as they met because her elder sister-in-law became his younger sister-in-law... so she hurriedly pulled Gao Yanzong away and tried to avoid him.

Unexpectedly, he was still seen, and Wei Xiangyuan took the initiative to greet him:
"My lady, please don't leave! I am here to report to you on the orders of King Lanling."

This time, he did not look hostile towards Gao Yanzong. He even enthusiastically introduced the female guards of "Youlan Mansion" to Yuan Wuyou, and asked Prince Ande to take her back to inspect the results... But just listening to his flowery words of compliance and propriety, you could tell that he was forcing a smile and gritting his teeth to help his elder brother to show his courtesy.

Moreover, Gao Changgong's extremely thoughtful arrangement made Yuan Wuyou feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

Yuan Wuyou had never thought that she would put into practice the joke about forming the imperial guards "Youlan Mansion". After all, if she went to recruit soldiers, she might not be able to recruit any. Only the little red-faced A'du would be under her command. Unexpectedly, A'du was also the only one who betrayed her.

It seems that Gao Changgong was the only one who took this joke seriously, and even the staff were transferred from his family.

Even if she knew that Prince Lanling would not harm her, who could guarantee that Gao Wei would not take the opportunity to place spies around her?
She had no choice but to delay the inspection of the guards under the pretext of going back to the city to have dinner with Gao Yanzong.

In the evening, the two returned to Bowang City and went straight to the bustling street market.

As night falls, the street lights come on.

Gao Yanzong has always loved to join in the fun, and now that he can go shopping at the night market with his beloved girl, he can't wait to stick to her. He said that in the past he only saw other people going shopping in pairs, and now it was finally his turn... So he didn't eat any street snacks along the way, but his mouth was always busy.

Then he realized that because the one-armed girl next to him had her left arm bandaged, the two of them were quite conspicuous, and he felt even more embarrassed to go shopping and eat.

Yuan Wuyou did not meet anyone from the Chi Luo family, but he met Jialuo who was also looking for Chi Luo.

Upon learning that Jialuo was sent by the King of Zhou to come to the "enemy territory" with the imperial badge to support Chiluo, Yuan Wuyou was sure that Gao Wei was not making things up and that there really was something going on with the Zhou Kingdom here.

In front of several Qiang soldiers dressed in Shu style, Jialuo called her "Sister Bao" in a cold tone as if no one was around... Everyone who heard it couldn't help laughing.

Yuan Wuyou responded calmly and introduced Gao Yanzong, "You can call him brother-in-law," and then introduced Gao Yanzong,
"She is my half-sister. She is the only relative on my father's side that I know. She was the only one who played with me when I was little."

Gao Yanzong said in panic, "Ah? I...I also call you sister?"

Compared to Gao Yanzong's hesitation and surprise, Jia Luo decisively clasped his fists towards him and called him "Brother-in-law!" with a straight face.

Just these two short words made Gao Yanzong's ears turn red with embarrassment.

He still nodded politely and returned the greeting.

Yuan Wuyou also discovered that Gao Yan was not good at dealing with relatives, but he was good at bewitching her. Gao Yanzong always seemed to be shy, but in fact he was controlling her. He was very good at teasing people. He knew that you liked this, and he used that little appearance to control you tightly.

Until it was completely dark, Yuan Wuyou had just taken Gao Yanzong out for a walk after dinner, and they met a group of private soldiers on the street who had captured a young man. The young man cried and shouted for justice, attracting many people to watch. She and Gao Yanzong approached and asked, and it turned out that it was Chi Luo Tiezhu who captured the scenery.

Gao Yanzong angrily stepped forward and squeezed into the crowd, shouting "Stop!", clearly wanting to take advantage of the situation. Yuan Wuyou also followed him forward and made eye contact with Chi Luo Tiezhu, who was wearing a white shirt and brocade robe.

She and Gao Yanzong recognized Chi Luo Tiezhu, but his private soldiers did not know him. Fortunately, the two looked at each other and quickly looked away, pretending that they were unfamiliar with each other.

Chi Luo Tiezhu even said hypocritically: "May I ask who you are and why you are trying to stop me? I have been specially approved by the Emperor of our dynasty to come to Bowang City to take care of family affairs."

Before Yuan Wuyou could even open his mouth, Gao Yanzong raised his eyebrows arrogantly, narrowed his peach blossom eyes, and said sharply, "Gao Yanzong, the King of Ande of Northern Qi. Has your Excellency never heard of me?"

Chi Luo Tiezhu: "..."

Not only have I heard of him, but I have also worked together on a case.

Even if he had a legitimate reason to come here this time, he would not dare to force his way into the face of Gao Yanzong, the devil of Qi. After all, he is barefoot and is not afraid of those wearing shoes.

Even when he saw Gao Yanzong step forward and pry open the private soldier's hands that were grabbing Jingzhi's shoulders, he could only hold back his anger and explain his purpose.

It turned out that after catching Biaozi in Ji Yang last time, Chi Luo Tiezhu actually found out through interrogation that his brother who died young was abducted by Biaozi's boss and became a male prostitute!
After hearing the news, he did not dare to delay. Remembering that his fourth brother had a cinnabar mole birthmark on his forehead, he sent someone to check. It turned out that there really was a female patron in the restaurant "Dukangju" in Bowang City. She had seen a waiter with a red mole on his forehead serving customers. The man's nickname was "Happy Buddha" and it was said that he looked very much like him!

After hearing this, Chi Luo Tiezhu wanted to kill the woman. He wanted to scold her for not keeping her chastity and soliciting a prostitute, but he was choked back by a few words just as he opened his mouth. The woman flatly denied that she had solicited his brother and insisted that she had solicited a prostitute.

Chi Luo's family went crazy when they heard the news, and they hurriedly asked their own emperor for a pass to Bowang City. Lord Yuwen was also very accommodating and wrote a letter to Lord Gao. Chi Luo Tiezhu had just received an 800-mile express letter from Lord Qi at noon, so he rushed to Bowang City with witnesses and private soldiers.

Unfortunately, when he came to arrest people in the evening, the restaurant was almost empty and he could not find anything. It was obvious that the prostitutes and waiters had gone underground. Just when Chi Luo Tiezhu thought that the clues were broken again, the scene of buying cakes on the street appeared in everyone's sight.

Jingjing was the "prostitute" mentioned by the female patron. He was recognized by the woman on the spot, so Chi Luo Tiezhu ordered his private soldiers to capture him and torture him severely.

When Jing Jing saw Gao Yanzong, he immediately cried out for justice and begged King Ande and King Fengling to save him. He was really unaware of his colleague's past!

Hearing this, Gao Yanzong would naturally not sit idly by. After all, the scenery was his most reliable "idea" in the secular world, and his identity was in Qi. Even if he was wandering on the border, he was still a citizen of Qi.

But since it was related to Master Chi Luo, he also pressed Jing Jing to ask why she was gathering with her "colleagues". After all, it was common for restaurant owners to keep prostitutes, and now that the news had spread, there must be someone behind the scenes directing them.

Yuan Wuyou asked Jingjing to lead the way, and he and Gao Yanzong planned to take Chi Luo Tiezhu to visit "Du Kangju" incognito, both to help and to protect Jingjing's safety.

When the few people arrived at the gate of Du Kangju, Yuan Wuyou was shocked from afar by the building that was glittering with jewels and as bright as day!

She couldn't help but wonder, "How come a restaurant on the border is so luxuriously decorated? Aren't they afraid that it will be destroyed by the war?"
