The army was stationed more than ten miles away from Chang 'an City. They were waiting for Luo Qiu's arrival and for the Imperial Astronomical Supervisor to choose an auspicious day.
Today was a good time, which was around four o'clock.
It wasn't even noon when Luo Qiu and Mo Xin rode their horses and galloped into the military camp. Yuchi Jingde, Feng Li, Mo Hua and the others quickly came out to welcome them.
"Haha, you brat! Why was he still wearing this tattered cloth? Hurry up and change, you're the main character today!”Yuchi Jingde laughed loudly.
The rest of the people also had smiles on their faces. Feng Li said," His Majesty has been talking about you for the past two days. Even Duke Su has been calling you nephew all day long…"
Duke Su was Cheng Yaojin. He was only promoted to Duke Lu during the Zhenguan period.
The titles of these titles were related to the fief. Whether a person's title was poor or not was determined by whether his fief was rich or not. This could also prove that person's status in the Emperor's heart.
"Humph! Let's not talk about that shameless old man! Unless His Majesty has already issued an edict, do not disturb you. He might have already gone to your Mo Village to cause trouble!”
Yuchi Jingde muttered.
Luo Qiu couldn't help but shiver.
Who was Cheng Yaojin?
He was the famous Great Demon King of Chang 'an, an existence that even the iron-headed censors feared!
Thick-skinned and muddle-headed!
It was a small matter to let him into the Mo Family Village. If he was angered, he might even tear down the thatched cottage on the spot!
Moreover, if his mother were to bump into Cheng Yaojin, who knew what would happen?!
"Village Chief, if you see State Duke Su appear within a five-mile radius of the village in the future, remember to release the dog immediately. Don't hesitate!”
Luo Qiu warned solemnly.
"This is a good relationship!"
Yuchi Jingde gave him a thumbs up. The more he looked at Luo Qiu, the more he found her pleasing to the eye.
...
Chang 'an was already bustling with activity.
Just a few days ago, the Turks had deployed 200,000 troops in Jingyang City and were about to attack Chang 'an. How many people had been scared out of their wits?
Even though they were dozens of miles away, everyone could smell the smell of war. It was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.
But no one had expected that the Turkic army, which had been unstoppable, would actually be defeated in Jingyang, and could only flee in defeat…
Immediately, he felt as if he had parted the clouds and seen the clear sky!
The villagers of the Mo Family Village had also pushed the fish cart into Chang 'an. Many people were immediately attracted by the magnanimity of Chang' an.
"Second Shen, let's go to the west market and sell these fish! Let's go shopping again!"
"Alright!"
"Sister Shan, do you want to go with me?”
"No, I'll go find a teahouse to sit down.”
Shan Yingying's face was still covered with a black veil. It was obvious that she did not want to show her face.
Everyone knew that her background must be unusual and that she might have some connections in Chang 'an, so they did not try to persuade her.
"Alright! If you encounter anything, call us.”
Aunt Wang smiled honestly and pulled a large group of people to push the fish cart in the direction of the west market.
Chang 'an had the East Market and the West Market. The East Market sold too many flashy things, but it was a good place for the rich.
The west market was more common and sold ordinary things.
The streets were crowded with people. Some were selling firewood, some were selling snacks, some were riding horses, some were sitting in cars, some were sitting in sedan chairs…
Aunty Wang and the others quickly found a seat, put the fish cart away, and began to sell it.
"Fish for sale! Thirteen wens for a catty of fresh fish!”
The little wimp who came with them also shouted, and it quickly attracted a large group of people to watch.
"This fish is so cheap? Is it really a live fish?"
"That's right! They are all fish raised in our village. Do you want to see them?”A woman replied.
"Alright!"
When the lid of the fish cart was opened, everyone cried out in surprise. A green chub jumped out of the water.
"Thump!"
"Is this fish really transported from outside the city?”
The onlookers found it unbelievable. Aunt Wang said," Our village is more than 30 miles away from here!”
"More than 30 li?"
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air and immediately shouted,
"It really is a divine fish! I, I'll buy three here!"
"I want four!"
"Here…"
...
The commoners often liked to associate things that they could not understand with those ghosts and gods. However, the fish in the Mo Family Village were selling quite well.
In less than an hour, more than ten carts of fish had been sold out. There were still many people who had heard the news but had not bought any. They were a little annoyed and asked,
"Aunty, are you still coming tomorrow?”
"Yeah! If you come, I'll reserve five!"
"I want ten of them!"
...
Aunt Wang and the others were very happy. They had already praised Luo Qiu countless times in their hearts. However, at this moment, a group of burly men barged in.
"Who told you to sell fish here? Didn't they know that this was the territory of the Duke of Yue? Do you want to die?"
