Chapter 9 Coming

Gusu, North City Gate.

It was afternoon, and the noise of entering and leaving the city finally faded, and the soldiers on duty could finally find a shade to rest.

But at this moment, there was a sudden sound of horse hooves from far to near.

The soldiers subconsciously turned their heads north.

eccentric.

If you want to talk about the people coming and going from the north gate every day, there are crowds of people and chariots and horses.

Even the stone floor was pressed with deep rut marks. What's so fresh about the sound of horse hooves?

But, at least it is the gateway of a big city, and there are rules for entering the city.

Although it is not like those legendary places where civil officials fall into sedan chairs and generals dismount, as far as riding horses are concerned, noble people must at least slow down to avoid collisions, and ordinary people even have to come down to lead the horse and walk.

I have never seen such a reckless person, at most, the sound of hooves is only a mile, but I have no sign of speed reduction.

"...Uncle Kui?" The youngest soldier was at most fifteen or sixteen years old, and he was a little panicked and quickly turned around to ask the team leader for advice.

This is also the fact that Gusu is located in the south of the Yangtze River and has been in peace for too long. If it were those northern border towns, I am afraid that it would be that they would have been in the hands of swords and guns.

The mate who was called Uncle Kui was also stretching his neck and squinting his eyes. After a pause, his expression suddenly changed and he waved his hands and greeted him:

"Hurry, hurry up, go back and give up the door~"

Four or five soldiers were unclear, but since the commander said, he should do as soon as possible.

After only ten breaths, the fast horse galloped into the city before them, and it really did not stop at all.

"Whose family belongs to?" The young soldier looked at the galloping horse that was moving away and rubbed his nose: "The face is absent~"

The troupe also looked over there for a while before shook his head and said, "Whose family belongs to? Maybe it's from the Tian family!"

"...Huh?!" The soldiers were shocked and surrounded them and asked in detail.

The team leader raised his hand and pointed at them: "So I told you again and again that the most important thing in life is to be smart and have a living brain... You don't know people, but they should have some impression of their clothes, right?"

"Clothes?" The big-headed soldiers looked at each other and found that each other's faces were full of confusion.

The man and horse were swept over like a whirlwind, and they could roughly see what they looked like, who could see so carefully?

The co-seller pressed his voice: "Is it common for big red hair? And the leather fast boots with soap soap... don't you think it looks familiar?"

"Ah!" A soldier with a furious face clapped his hands in surprise: "By the way! That's right! The imperial guards stationed in the southern palace during the Chinese New Year did have this outfit!"

He was indeed impressed by it, and he envied the indescribable royal style at that time.

The troupe nodded, looked towards the city again, murmured: "...Is it South Mansion..."

.............

"Can your head be here?!"

The knight indeed rushed straight to the gate of the Southern Mansion, but did not get off the horse, but only tied the reins and mounts. When he was walking around in a row, he was already shouting inside the gate.

"...Dare you dare to ask about the distinguished guest?" This kind of situation is rare, so the door quickly came out.

"I sent an urgent letter from the capital! Can your head be in the mansion?!" Although the knight's voice was dry, his central aura was still full of energy, and his accent was indeed from the Central Plains.

The door was stunned and quickly bowed: "Our young master is out to watch. This hero is asked to enter the mansion for a while and wait..."

But the knight had no patience at all and took the horse's head back again: "Where is it before the observation?!"

The gate quickly raised his hand and pointed: "Try two miles southwest, the most lively street is~"

The knight stopped talking, whistled, and then left.

As soon as he ran out of the gate, the fierce sound of horse hooves coming and going attracted a lot of attention and discussion.

.............

Nan Shou went shopping in Shendudodu again, taking the butler and the two guards.

Of course, it was impossible to make the folding fan so quickly, but strangely, it seems that he has lost his previous troubles now.

Even talking to Uncle Gui while walking, he could pose a few handsome poses for the fans around him from time to time, causing bursts of laughter.

"Uncle is precious~"

"Yes, Master~"

"You said there are many martial arts masters in this world?"

"Oh? Master, you mean..."

"Well~ I'm as tall as a few floors, I'm not far away, I feel like I can easily get over a dozen or twenty guards and my kind by myself~"

"Uh... I can't say it's okay to come without a trace... But there are indeed famous masters who are shocking the world in the green forest above the rivers and lakes."

"Ha! It's true, right? I thought the guards in our mansion were already top-notch."

Uncle Gui smiled bitterly: "Young Master, our Nanfu is an imperial merchant for generations. How could he invite those figures in the martial arts world?"

Nanshou blinked and nodded and smiled sweetly at a green-skirted lady.

There are some truths, he can understand them at all.

A family lintel like Nanfu should not have had more contact with some wealthy tourists in the world.

He is the imperial merchant himself, the richest man in Suzhou, with a lot of gold and silver.

There are friends, tenants, and there are connections with mixed officials.

If you recruit some people from all over the place, someone will probably think more about it...What exactly do Nanfu want to do?

Uncle Gui continued: "...And no matter what, our Nanfu is also half a general. The master even did the imperial guards back then, so for those..."

"???" Nan Shou was really stunned this time, and immediately stopped and turned in shock: "My father? He has also been an imperial guard?"

"Yes~" Uncle Gui smiled bitterly: "Before taking over as the head of the family, the master had been in the capital for more than ten years~"

After my young master fainted and woke up, the changes were really too great, and his tone and behavior were very different.

But from the heart, as we get along day by day, Uncle Gui is still more surprised.

Because the young master nowadays, no matter his courage, he made some decisions, and even the uncle who was used to the storm, was shocked.

Uncle Gui firmly believed that this was the master and his mistress who knew him underground, so he woke up the young master and protected the Southern Palace for a long time.

But after all, there are some flaws... The young master said that he was confused and forgot about many things from the past.

Nan Shou didn't know what he was thinking at this moment, so he subconsciously raised his hand and scratched his eyebrows.

The group of four people paused and stood firm in the street. It was not strange to be in this bustling and lively street.

Twenty or thirty steps away from them is the bright golden sign of a shop owner - "Ruihetai".

After only three or five breaths, a noise suddenly sounded from afar.

There was also a voice that was obviously in the accent of the Central Plains, which sounded like thunder:

"Where is the head of the Nanfu family?...Where is the head of the Nanfu family?!!"

The two guards were originally just quiet, but when they heard the movement, they didn't need to say hello. They immediately took a few steps and protected the young master behind them.

Nan Shou also came to his senses at this time, thrust his body, and exhaled:
Chapter completed!
