C42 Leave-tiger Rage

The next day, before the sky brightened, Yun Shu got up from the bed. When she opened her eyes, she saw that her surroundings were empty, and she was still somewhat unaccustomed to it. After her head had cleared a bit, she remembered that Pei Hongqing had gone next door to sleep with Ge.

She patted her face in annoyance, got up and got dressed. She took the copper basin from the rack and went out to wash up. However, just as she opened the door, she saw Pei Hongqing, who was also holding a copper bowl, walking past her.

Yun Shu, "…" She had been very lucky this early in the morning.

Pei Hongqing seemed to have completely forgotten what happened last night. He turned around and looked at her calmly, "Good morning. Did you sleep well last night?"

"Not bad, General?" If Pei Hongqing talked about what happened last night, how would she answer the question of not taking off her undergarment … Which normal man liked to wear a undergarment on their body? Wouldn't it be abnormal if this' Yin Yun 'did this …?

Pei Hongqing smiled and said, "I don't have a bed. I can sleep in anywhere. "Quickly pack up, we need to go back to the medicine store. I still have some things to tell Sang Ye." With that, he took the lead and left.

Pei Hongqing did not mention what had happened last night. She should have been relieved, but for some reason, she felt slightly disappointed.

Afterwards, the two of them changed into ordinary men's clothes, which were barely noticeable in the crowd, put on a fake beard, and went out to Sang's Pharmacy. As they passed the entrance to the alley between the pharmacy and the alley next door, Yun Shu inadvertently caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.

She turned her head to take a closer look and realized that she had been loitering at the back door of the medicine store.

"What's wrong?" Out of the corner of his eye, Pei Hongqing didn't notice that she had caught up with him. He turned around to look for her, but didn't expect her to be standing in a daze at the entrance to the alley.

Yun Shu immediately retracted her gaze. "It's nothing, let's go in." As he spoke, he stepped into the store.

Sang Ye, who had been dozing behind the counter, did not expect that someone would come to his door before daybreak. His eyes, which had just closed a little while ago, suddenly opened when he heard footsteps approaching, and he almost knocked the abacus brush on the ground: "What do you two want to buy, customers?"

Pei Hongqing immediately grabbed Yun Shu's shoulder and pushed her to the front of the counter, "My younger brother is suffering from a violent blindness. Previously, when doctor came to visit, he gave my younger brother a prescription that can relieve depression in his body, and help him circulate his Qi and stimulate his blood. I'll have to trouble boss to follow this prescription to get the medicine." As he spoke, Pei Hongqing retrieved a piece of paper from his waist and passed it to him.

Sang Ye unfolded the piece of paper, turned around and began to grab at the medicine. After grabbing about six or seven herbs, his hand movements finally came to a stop. He lowered his head to read the names of the herbs on the paper before turning his head to look at the two people outside the counter. He quickly walked out from behind the counter and closed the door.

Only after the wooden board had completely isolated them from the outside world did he turn around and look at the two of them. "Where did you go last night? I was worried about you for the whole night."

Pei Hongqing asked, "Did you sleep all night?"

Sang Ye scratched the back of his head. "Not really."

Pei Hongqing raised his eyebrows and said with an expression of "I knew it would be like this", "It's good as long as you don't. Come here and sit down. I have something to say." After saying that, he led the way and sat down on a nearby chair.

"Yesterday, not long after we arrived at Liuyuan Pavilion, someone came to meet up with us. That person even wrote a reply on the letter I placed on the stone table saying he wanted to trade with you."

"But don't we know what he wrote? If the other party is just a passerby with a prank, then wouldn't that be a misunderstanding? " Although her conjecture was not too accurate, because after that person left, the group of people that were previously hiding in the shadows did indeed stay around the pavilion for the whole afternoon.

Pei Hongqing laughed, "Have you forgotten where he buried that piece of paper?"

Yun Shu immediately reacted. "Could it be that the general specified that the written reply must be buried under the pillar of the pavilion?"

Pei Hongqing nodded and turned to look at Sang Ye, "Yin Yun and I will leave the city and return to the camp later. You go inform the others that we are leaving, Uncle Ge and I have already said that we will have him prepare the boat for you at the pier by the south gate."

However, this time, Sang Ye did not act the way he did after Pei Hongqing had given the orders. Instead, he looked at Pei Hongqing hesitantly. After a moment of hesitation, he asked, "General, do we really have to force our way out?"

Pei Hongqing said, "Jia Daoping cannot be trusted. There is no other way …"

"I got it …" When he stood up and headed towards the small door in the backyard, Yun Shu could easily see that his expression was a little bad. She was about to chase after him to say something, but she was stopped by Pei Hongqing, "War has always been so cruel.

Yun Zhui nodded. "Then I'll go pack my things." With that, he headed to the room they had previously stayed in. With Sang Ye with them, she had been able to concentrate on what Pei Hongqing had to say. Now that Sang Ye had left, only the two of them were left in the main hall.

After entering the room, she slowly let out a breath. Pei Hongqing seemed to realize that she was purposely hiding. While she was packing, he was only waiting in the front hall. Occasionally, he would take a walk around the back yard, but he did not enter the house – even when the door was wide open, he did not approach. This made Yun Shu feel much more relaxed.

After that, the two of them changed their clothes. When she was helping Pei-ho-Qing with her makeup, she felt a little uncomfortable, but she soon forgot something because she was too absorbed in her wrinkles.

When she finished, she realized that Pei Hongqing had been staring at her for a long time. She put down the brush as if she had met something hot. "We can leave when Sang Ye comes back," she said.

"Yes." Pei Hongqing's gaze was still following her.

Yun Shu pretended to be calm as she sat down behind the table and poured herself a cup of tea.

The atmosphere in the room was eerie.

After she slowly finished the cold tea in her cup, Pei Hongqing opened his mouth and said, "You're really suited to wear women's clothes …" He did not continue to ask the following questions. He was afraid that if he asked seriously if the other party was a woman now, he would want to force the other party to answer.

Yun Shu was perplexed by his words that she could not understand. She slightly wrinkled her brow and gave a coy smile as she nodded her head.

However, Pei Hong Qing took her frown as a sign that she didn't like what he had said and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it or make fun of you. I really think that if you are a girl, there should be a lot of people coming to propose to you …" "Ai, forget it, just what nonsense am I spouting?" He creased his brows in annoyance, got up and opened the door to walk into the courtyard.

If she was a man, she would have taken advantage of what she said just now to ridicule the great general for actually spouting such nonsense. However, she was not. After hearing these words, she could only worry that her identity had been exposed, and that her actions had made him suspicious.

Fortunately, Sang Ye had returned at this time, preventing her from thinking too much.

After bidding farewell to Sang Ye, they left.

Hu Nu had an unwritten rule: outsiders could only enter the city through the gate, so they could only queue at the gate of the east city where there were no less than a hundred people who wanted to leave the city.

During this time, Yun Shu wanted to avoid thinking about the things that bothered her the moment her mind went blank, so she kept looking around. She happened to catch a glimpse of a few slightly familiar side faces in front of the line, one of which was Xiao Cui from the general's estate, and beside her was the maidservant who had walked closer to her in the mansion. They were both wearing the uniform of the general's estate.

With regards to the matter of the ten or so generals leaving the city together with the maidservants, Yun Shu only felt that it was a little strange and did not think much about it.

The sun was high in the sky when they came out of the east gate. Just as the two of them reached the dock, a familiar figure disembarked from the ship that had just landed. The person's face was as black as charcoal, and he looked a little familiar, but Yun Shu couldn't think of where she had seen him before.

At first, he was surprised to see them standing in the crowd. Then, he quickly walked over and pulled Pei Hongqing, who was disguised as an old lady, into a small, empty alley.

This sudden turn of events caused Yun Shu to be stunned on the spot, but she immediately reacted and followed after Pei Hongqing, who had brought her away.

After chasing her into the alley, the black-masked man only glanced at her for a moment. He didn't say anything and just took off the bag on his shoulder. He then took out a black sandalwood box and handed it to Pei Hongqing, "This box was given to you yesterday. But why is the general out of the city?"

This voice sounded familiar as well, Yun Shu thought. She initially wanted to stand between the two of them to protect Pei Hongqing and prevent the dark-masked man from finding any hidden weapons. However, she didn't have any intention of doing so now. Pei Hongqing didn't have any intention of guarding against the dark-faced man.

Pei Hong Qing opened the box and looked at the contents. After a moment of shock, she closed the lid and put it back into her bag. She then said, "It's a long story. Let's find an inn to stay at first." As he said that, he went around the black-masked man and walked beside Yun Shu. He placed his hand on her hand and brought her out of the alley. Due to the cover of his sleeves, in the eyes of outsiders, he looked like a young girl supporting the old lady.

Yun Shu suspiciously turned her head to look at the black-masked man walking beside her. Pei Hongqing lightly pulled her hand and pointed at the inn that was only a hundred steps away from the city gate with the cane in his other hand. "Let's go over there. The old woman's old bones are about to stop moving."

Yun Shu, "…" Great General Pei was in the limelight again.
