Chapter 543: A Scene In Songhe Inn 1
She waited for the sky to brighten a little before asking the male servant to boil the water. After bathing and changing into some new clothes, Qi Qingyao rubbed her hands together in embarrassment and ran to Li Ruoxuan’s courtyard while the children were still asleep…
As soon as she entered the yard, she saw the man wearing a black brocaded robe and black eye patch sitting on the roof impressively.
He was meditating.
He looked like he was in the middle of his cultivation.
Qi Qingyao was stunned for a moment. She analyzed the situation; seeing how calm Li Ruoxuan was, it was likely that nothing happened after she drank herself unconscious.
She was about to leave quietly and not disturb his cultivation.
However, at that moment, the man sitting on the roof suddenly opened his eyes and his slightly profound gaze landed on the girl dressed in a soft red robe with white pine, bamboo, and plum print.
He wanted to call out to her, but in the end, he did not.
He simply watched the girl leave.
Li Ruoxuan withdrew his gaze and looked up at the sky.
He had been meditating indoors at first, but because he felt unsettled, he had to move to the roof. In the end, he sat on the roof all night to no avail.
Women were indeed troublemakers.
They made him perturbed!
He should not have listened to her “nonsense” yesterday!
Li Ruoxuan smacked his face with anguish and distress, then he leaped off the roof.
After being the cold, ruthless and savage State Preceptor for so many years, Li Ruoxuan was very pleased with himself. He was even more satisfied with his original intention of not touching women. He led a very good life previously, and his cultivation speed was fast. Now he had finally ascended to a grand master, yet he still became out of sorts after listening to some of her nonsense!
Qi Qingyao waited for the three children to wake up and had breakfast together. She still had not confronted Li Ruoxuan by then.
Maybe it was because of her arranged marriage, for the three children, although only four years old, seemed to have gotten a lot more mature overnight.
Each of them exclaimed earnestly that they wanted to learn how to read and write!
Erniu said that after she finished studying, she would learn how to meditate from her master at noon…
Qi Qingyao looked at the three busy little kids, and then looked at her idle self. She thought for a while, and disguised herself as a little maid once again. She changed her clothes, carried a basket, and pretended to be a second-class maid in the State Preceptor’s residence going out to run errands. She left through the side door beside the main door openly.
She was a professional informant in her previous life, after all, so she had a lot of experience in this area.
This time, she changed her clothes and left confidently, and no one noticed at all.
Including all the spies…
They had all dismissed her as an ordinary maid of the State Preceptor’s residence…
Qi Qingyao walked over and called a carriage by the roadside. Seeing that she was dressed in the maid outfit of the State Preceptor’s residence, the coachman did not waste any time and quickly asked where she was going. Qi Qingyao thought for a while, and told him to take her to Songhe Inn…
The coachman set off toward it.
After arriving at the destination,
Qi Qingyao casually handed a piece of silver to the coachman.
Then she got off the carriage and walked away.
The coachman was left by himself, looking at the piece of silver in his hands, his mind in a mess…
The maid of the State Preceptor’s residence had not been this generous before.
What was going on today!
Did she have so much money to burn?
Qi Qingyao did not know that her casual behavior caused a great psychological shock to the coachman! Since she was born in Qingzhou City, today was her first time going out and riding a carriage in the Capital. She did not know the market price, plus she was deep-pocketed, so she casually gave a bit extra!
She did not really care at all.
After all, she had plenty of money. For her, the extra fare could be considered as a tip to the coachman.
After getting off the carriage, she stood before the entrance of Songhe Inn. Today, Qi Qingyao took some time to look at the front of Songhe Inn, and concluded that it was indeed a famous restaurant in the Capital. Its appearance was really spectacular!
As someone who always behaved cautiously, she glanced at the clothes she was wearing, afraid that she would be recognized by the shopkeeper.
It looked like she had to change her clothes.
