The little lady of Xuanmen has become popular in the sixth palace by fortune-telling

Chapter 179 Xu Anan, who allowed you to enter the palace?
Mu Qing ran non-stop to find someone, and he even took Mu Yi with him.

Mu Chen frowned, looking at Cheng Huai's cold and angry side face, he sighed slightly in his heart, he just hoped that the man would come back soon, the situation was heading to a worse place.

Qingping County

When everyone arrived at the gate of Qingping County, it was already afternoon time, and it would be time to have dinner in more than an hour.

The magistrate of Qingping County, whose surname is Zhou, is Zhou Zicheng. He is a middle-aged man in his 40s, thin and simply dressed.

Qingping County, as its name suggests, is very poor, and the people who come and go wear coarse linen clothes. This county town is built of simple bluestone, and it looks a bit gray at first glance.

Zhou Zicheng came to greet Yao Zhuoyu and others in person. He respectfully led them to the door of his house, and was startled when he saw Xu Anan coming out of the carriage.

"Master Yao is so elegant? And he brought a beauty with him?"

Yao Zhuoyu's face turned dark when he heard this. He explained to Zhou Zicheng in a low voice. Zhou Zicheng's face suddenly turned pale. He hurriedly knelt down on the ground and said, "I don't know that the empress is coming here, but I am far away from you. Please forgive me."

He didn't understand why he brought a concubine with him when he came to handle a case!
Xu Anan glanced at him: "Master Zhou, there is no need to be polite or treat me specially, just keep everything as usual."

Zhou Zicheng stood up and couldn't help but raise his sleeves to wipe the sweat from his forehead. This was not investigating a case. This was clearly an ancestor coming to serve them. Zhou Zicheng couldn't tell how miserable he was.

The group all settled in the Zhou Mansion, and Zhou Zicheng called his wife and daughter to recruit distinguished guests.

Qingping County is not that big and the population is not dense. There are not many restaurants in the county but there are a few inns, so Zhou Zicheng arranged dinner at his own home.

Mrs. Zhou is gentle and always smiles at everyone. Miss Zhou's name is Zhou Zhiman. She is ordinary and has a gentle temper. She is only sixteen this year and is engaged to a scholar in the county.

It was the first time for the Zhou family to see someone from the palace, and they were all a little cautious for a while.

Yao Zhuoyu drank tea lightly, and then asked about the case: "Is there anything strange in that village now?"

Zhou Zicheng shook his head and sighed: "No, things have calmed down for a few days since the death of that yamen officer. Because I ordered the village to be sealed off, the villagers inside were very dissatisfied and were clamoring to come out. I was afraid of letting the prisoners go. So no, there are still heavy troops guarding it."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a roaring voice: "Father, mother, look what I brought back for you."

A young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes in a government uniform ran in. When he met Xu Anan's eyes, he stopped suddenly. The young man rubbed his eyes: "When did you invite the fairy into your house?"

Zhou Zicheng became angry and fell back: "What kind of fairy? Why don't you come over here to meet this distinguished guest?"

The young man approached, fearing to offend the guests, and threw the bloody deer aside: "Dad, who are they?"

Because Xu Anan told them not to reveal their identities at the beginning, Zhou Zicheng only introduced Yao Zhuoyu, and Xu Anan said she was an official lady.

Zhou Zicheng's son Zhou Xiaobo worked as an errand in the county government. Because he didn't like to study, Zhou Zicheng put him into the government office to give him some training.

And he was guarding Jianjia Village with the chief of the county government. He caught this deer in the mountains outside Jianjia Village.

Zhou Zicheng looked at his son's slovenly appearance and was very disgusted: "Go and change into clean clothes. You can have dinner later."

Zhou Xiaobo, who had always been carefree, actually felt a little restrained in front of Xu Anan.After everyone had eaten, Xu Anan asked: "Where are the bodies of the two deceased people now?"

Zhou Zicheng said hurriedly: "They are all placed in the jail of the county government. Because I thought Master Yao would come and the body was also evidence, the subordinates did not dare to touch the body, so they sent people to put it away properly."

Yao Zhuoyu followed: "Miss, it's a little late today. Let's go explore again tomorrow. We are a little tired after running around for a day."

Xu Anan would not look at the corpse until late at night. She stood up, looked at Zhou Zhiman, and said with a smile: "Please trouble Miss Zhou to take me to the guest room."

Zhou Zhiman stood up with a slightly red face. Her voice was very low: "Miss Xu, come with me."

Xu Anan's guest room was the best in the entire Zhou Mansion. It was twice as big as an ordinary room. A maid brought hot water. Because Xu Anan's menstruation was not over yet, she simply wiped herself and let herself go. After feeling refreshed and putting on clean underwear, she sighed comfortably.

Although the room was simple, Xu Anan didn't mind it. She just had a place to sleep, and she didn't choose. It was getting dark now, so Cheng Huai must also know that she didn't return to the palace.

Cheng Huai is also the emperor, so he must not leave the capital easily. As for what happens after this is resolved, we will talk about it later. She can hide for a while.

Thinking like this, she wanted to turn off the lights. The candle flame swayed imperceptibly. Xu Anan paused and looked around. There was no other sound in the entire guest room except her breathing.

About ten breaths later, Xu Anan walked to the bed and put on her coat. She tied her belt and stood there and said softly: "How long will you continue to spy? Now that you are in, there is no point in hiding."

As soon as Xu Anan finished speaking, the bright candlelight was instantly extinguished, and a magnetic voice chuckled, tinged with coldness.

She felt that the voice was particularly familiar, but she could not remember it. Until the dangerous and unfamiliar man's breath approached, Xu Anan quickly evacuated and ran towards the door.

The breath behind her followed her like a shadow. Xu Anan wanted to fight him off, but was easily caught by the wrist. She was pushed hard against the window, and a pair of big hands wrapped around her neck like a poisonous snake. He tightened his grip on her neck. , Xu Anan felt like she couldn't breathe.

Taking advantage of the light outside, she looked blankly at the pair of eyes that were very close at hand. There was a cold and fierce look in the man's narrow eyes, and a contemptuous smile appeared on his rich appearance.

This is……

The person behind the window that day.

She was thinking a lot in her mind, but she couldn't imagine when she would have such a powerful enemy. The most important thing was that he could figure out her moves and catch her easily.

The man looked at her suppressed red face. He loosened his grip a little, giving her a chance to breathe fresh air. Xu Anan looked at him coldly: "Let go."

Cheng Si's greedy eyes described her face, and when he touched those cold eyes without any emotion, he laughed out loud in pain: "You are still as sharp as before, but have you forgotten? Your martial arts are all gone." I taught you, and I know all the moves you know."

Xu Anan's eyes widened. Her martial arts were all left in her memory. She had always had inner strength, but she didn't know how to use it. She only knew some simple moves. The man in front of her actually said that he taught her martial arts.

Xu Anan is still the same Xu Anan as before. The only thing that has changed is that he will no longer remain in her eyes.

Cheng Si's heart ached with hatred, his eyes were scarlet, and the strength of his hands increased again: "Xu An'an, who allowed you to enter the palace?"

　This is another sad story...
