Outside the Wilderness Inn.
Not long after Yang Zhao and the others entered the inn, another dozen officers suddenly arrived. In front of them was a flamboyant and domineering middle-aged officer.
"Waiter, come and welcome Lord Yuwen.”
An officer with a wretched appearance sized up the people of the Two Virtues Manor feeding the horses outside the inn. He did not care and arrogantly said to the waiter who had rushed over.
"Grandpa, generals, please come in.”
The waiter hurriedly walked over and bowed respectfully.
"Go, feed our horses. If any of them are hungry, be careful not to interrogate them.”
The officer said arrogantly to the waiter.
There was a big feeling that if you didn't do your job well, they would catch you and send you back to jail.
Facing the arrogant officer, the waiter nodded respectfully. Then, he rubbed his hands and gestured. However, he did not expect to be kicked out by the officer.
"Get lost. If you don't do a good job, forget about money.”
After saying that, the officer looked at the middle-aged officer with a fawning expression and fawned over him.
Lord Yuwen, please come in."
Lord Yuwen snorted and entered the inn under the respectful voices of the officials.
At the same time, Yang Zhao, who was on the second floor, happened to see everything that was happening outside through the window. He immediately revealed a look of understanding.
"I see."
At this moment, Yang Zhao finally understood why he had felt that the masked woman was so familiar.
It turned out that he had seen this scene in the original novel in his previous life.
"Yuwen Clan, Yuwen Zhiji."
Following that, his gaze landed on the veiled woman not far away, and he revealed a stunned expression.
"She is Li Rongrong."
"I want this woman."
Thinking of this, Yang Zhao already had an idea, but he couldn't rush it for the time being.
Yang Zhao naturally didn't want this delicate beauty to experience the tragic experience of Li Rongrong in the original novel again.
Therefore, he decided to accept Li Rongrong before the tragic experience happened.
Shan Xiong Xin noticed the change in Yang Zhao's gaze and smiled.
"Brother Yang really likes that woman.”
..............................
On the first floor of the inn, Yuwen Zhiji led a group of officials into the inn arrogantly and occupied the entire first floor.
At this moment, a middle-aged woman walked over. She was the lady boss of this inn. When she saw so many officials enter, she immediately came over to welcome them.
"Officers, what would you like to eat?”
When the flattering official saw this, he glanced at Yuwen Zhiji's eyes and immediately said arrogantly.
"Bring all the good wine and dishes here to our Lord Yuwen.”
"Alright, officers."
The middle-aged woman had no idea what was going to happen. Therefore, she was overjoyed when she heard the official's words.
With that, she ran to the kitchen and got busy.
Not long after, tables of wine and dishes were served.
At the same time, Yang Zhao and the others also began to eat.
As they ate, they saw Yuwen Zhiji, who seemed to have noticed the veiled woman, move. Coupled with the alcohol, he gave an order to the official beside him.
The official slammed the table, scaring the lady boss into rushing over.
"Officers, are the dishes and wine not to your liking?”
Unexpectedly, just as the lady boss finished speaking, the official said,
"There's wine but no women here.”
"Hurry up and call the woman upstairs to accompany Lord Yuwen!”
"Officer, that…"
When the lady boss heard this, she wanted to refuse. However, she did not expect that a saber would be hung between her neck in the next moment. If she had any intention of refusing, the saber would fall without hesitation.
This scene immediately scared the lady boss so much that her face turned pale. She hurriedly agreed.
"Officer, you can't, you can't. I'll go and call that woman down to accompany Lord Yuwen.”
Hearing the Lady Boss relent, the officer put away his saber.
"Go quickly. If you're slow, I'll treat you to jail.”
Hearing this, the Lady Boss's expression changed again and again. In the end, she could only hurry up to the second floor and call the veiled woman to accompany her.
On the second floor, after the veiled woman finished talking about a zither tune, she prepared to pack her zither and return to her room.
Unexpectedly, the lady boss walked over and said angrily.
"Rongrong, go down quickly. Lord Yuwen wants you to accompany him for two glasses of wine.”
"Lord Yuwen!"
Hearing this, Li Rongrong's face, which was covered by her veil, suddenly changed color.
She could never forget the incident where her entire family was executed by Yuwen Huaji.
Now that he heard the words Yuwen, he immediately had a myriad of thoughts.
Naturally, the lady boss did not know about this. She urged.
"Your uncle and I have raised you for so long, and now we want you to accompany us for two glasses of wine? Why? Are you unwilling?"
In the end, Li Rongrong left the restaurant with a complicated feeling.
At the same time, Yang Zhao saw this scene and put down his bowl and chopsticks. He came to the stairs near the second floor and sat down.
At this moment, Shan Xiong Xin also walked over. Looking at the veiled woman who was brought by the Lady Boss to accompany him, Shan Xiong Xin said.
"Brother Yang Zhao, do you want me to bring you that woman?”
"Second Brother Dan, do you know who the person downstairs is?”
Hearing this, Yang Zhao changed the topic.
"Aren't they just a few officers?"
Shan Xiong Xin said indifferently.
"That middle-aged officer is the second son of the current Great General Yuwen Shu, Yuwen Zhiji.”
Hearing Yang Zhao's words, Shan Xiong Xin's expression turned solemn.
Even someone as fearless as him subconsciously paid attention when he heard Yuwen Clan's name.
Now, the Yuwen family was like the sun in the sky in the Great Sui Dynasty. Their family head, Yuwen Huaji, was even a popular person beside the Sui Emperor.
Thus, Shan Xiongxin couldn't ignore it.
Seeing this, Yang Zhao didn't say anything, but looked at the development below.
The middle-aged officer followed Li Rongrong down the stairs. He was impatient and wanted to pull Li Rongrong to sit down. However, Li Rongrong avoided him every time, which made the middle-aged officer's face turn gloomy.
In the next moment, he ordered the officers to restrain Li Rongrong, but Li Rongrong immediately ran away.
At the same time, while she was dodging, the veil accidentally slipped off.
Instantly, a face that was as beautiful as the moon and flowers was revealed.
This scene caused the middle-aged officer to look anxious. At the same time, he seemed to have thought of something!
"Criminal of the Imperial Court-Li Rongrong!"
"Quick, arrest him!"
"I want to interrogate him personally!"
When the officers heard this, they immediately rushed forward to grab Li Rongrong. However, they did not expect that in the next moment, screams could be heard!
"Ahhh, my hand!"
"My leg!"
