Dafeng's Night Squad

The former was for the sake of the nobles ‘safety, as the residents were all respectable people. After the drum was struck at dusk, there could be no one on the streets.

As everyone knew, the education workshop worked at night.

This meant that going to the Imperial Academy workshop was not only to inquire about information, but also to stay overnight.

This was why Xu Pingzhi was against Xu Qi ‘an going to the teaching workshop. He was a young and vigorous man. If he stayed overnight at the teaching workshop, who could resist the teasing of a girl?

Therefore, whoever went to the education workshop Division had to go to support.

The three men in the room were all well-known:

The upright gentleman Xu cijiu.

She did not seduce Xu Qi ‘an.

The Gu family’s beloved wife, Xu Pingzhi.

The three of them knew one thing very well. Even if there was a reason for it, it would not change the fact that they were afraid.

Although I didn’t flirt in my previous life, I can imagine the embarrassment of being flirted with and then being called by the police to inform my parents ... He simply didn’t want to live ... Xu Qi ‘an sat up straight, his face serious and upright.

Some interesting things about the brothels came to his mind. One time, when he was listening to music by the railing, Constable Wang had a topic. An official of the court had gone to the teaching workshop to sleep with a girl, but he had met his son during a Tea Party.

It was an awkward scene.

By the next day, the news had already spread throughout the capital’s officialdom and was treated as a joke. Even Constable Wang had heard about it from County Magistrate Zhu.

For an era that valued the three principles and five virtues as well as reputation, such an incident was an unbearable shame.

Xu Qi ‘an looked at second uncle Xu and second son Xu, and images appeared in his mind involuntarily.

Xu niannian: ” Oh, Father, you’re here too. You can give me this girl today. She’ll be yours tomorrow.

Second uncle Xu: ” get lost! Who’s the Father? ” I’ll sleep first.”

“All of you, back off. I want to fight alone,” Xu Qi ‘an said.

Just thinking about it made him shudder ... Xu Qi ‘an coughed. let’s put aside the Imperial Academy workshop for now. We’ll continue to inquire about the news. After all, we don’t have to go to the Imperial Academy. We’re not sure if we can really get any useful information from the floating fragrance courtesan.

“Sit down again the day after tomorrow and gather the information. If there are no additional gains, we will consider going to the Imperial Academy.”

Hearing what he said, Xu Erlang and second uncle Xu’s attitude changed for the better and they nodded.

Xu Qian thought,’I’ll make a sacrifice and go to the Imperial Academy tomorrow night.’

.....

At noon the next day, Xu Qi ‘an asked for leave and returned to the Xu Manor. The Xu Manor, which used to be quite lively, was much quieter.

The maidservants and old maidservants took half of it away, leaving the gatekeeper, old Zhang, and a few servants to take care of it. Second uncle Xu and second son Xu had yet to return.

Xu Qi ‘an went to the inner courtyard with ease. He pushed open Xu Erlang’s room and rummaged through the cabinets to find the moon-white Confucian robe. The material was precious and the cloud pattern was of the same color.

It’s alright ... It’s just that my skin is too masculine, I can’t wear the handsome beauty of a little puppy ... If it was my unparalleled beauty from my previous life, I would have been able to wear this kind of clothes ... His current appearance lacked a sense of substitution ...

He took off his bailiff uniform and changed into his little brother’s most presentable clothes. A jade pendant of decent quality hung from his belt.

Xu Qi ‘an stood in front of the bronze mirror and looked at himself.

It’s alright ... It’s just that my skin is too masculine, I can’t wear the handsome beauty of a little puppy ... If it was my unparalleled beauty from my previous life, I would have been able to wear this kind of clothes ... His current appearance lacked a sense of substitution ... Xu Qi smoothed out the wrinkles on his chest and left in satisfaction.

The structure of the capital could be summarized with the word “nesting doll,” which was divided into the palace, the Imperial City, the inner city, and the outer city.

Compared to the outer city, which had a large population, Xu Qi ‘an understood the inner city as the CBD area in his previous life. Those who could live there were all rich people.

In this era, those who could live in the inner city were all people with status.

It was worth mentioning that his aunt had always wanted to sell her property in the outer city and move to the inner city.

It was a pity that she had a nephew of a metal devouring beast, which made her yearn for the inner city, but she had no fate to live there.

It would take Xu Qi ‘an three to four hours to walk from the Xu mansion to the gate of the inner city.

He hired a carriage and arrived at the nearest inner city gate an hour later. He took out the certificate he had prepared and successfully passed through.

The soldiers guarding the city carefully checked the carriage. Seeing that Xu Qi ‘an did not bring any large luggage, they could not hide their disappointment.

This meant that Xu Qi ‘an was not doing business in the inner city, so he could not collect the city gate tax.

.....

The streets in the inner city were wide and crisscrossed. Beautiful houses surrounded by green trees were built on the main road, and all kinds of courtyards were distributed on the non-main road.

Whether it was the city’s construction, the pedestrians “clothing, or the number of carriages on the streets, they were far better than the outer city.

“If you have time, you must bring little sister lingyue to the inner city to play. The prosperity of the inner city can not be compared to the outer city.” Xu Qi ‘an lifted the curtain of the car window and looked at the bustling scene. Xu lingyue’s sharp and beautiful face appeared in his mind.

He didn’t go to the education workshop immediately. It was still early, and the seafood merchants didn’t work during the day.

After paying for the carriage, Xu Qi ‘an wandered aimlessly on the street.

Not long after, Xu Qi ‘an arrived at a market. He looked up at the memorial Arch at the end of the street.Yongkang Street!

Xu Qi ‘an had never seen such a wide street before. It was 200 meters wide, and the flat ground was made of bluestone slabs, which extended to the end of his sight.

The shops and houses on both sides of the street were lined up in rows. There was no pressure at all even with ten carriages lined up side by side. The streets were bustling with people.

Where was the street? it was clearly a large square.

Xu Qi ‘an, who was standing under the memorial Arch, was shocked by this scene.

Yongkang Street is one of the main roads in the capital. Second uncle said it was very big, but I didn’t expect it to be this big. Xu Qian muttered in his heart.

...

The main road being so spacious was a particular rule. When the Emperor or the royal family went out, there would be guards to clear the place in advance.

The 200-meter width rendered most of the current military crossbows and handguns useless.

Even if there were assassins who wanted to hide in the buildings on both sides of the road and shoot, seeing the distance, they could only helplessly leave the keyboard and type a six-six-six.

Xu Qi ‘an was running around Yongkang Street like a wild dog, but because of the limited budget in his pocket, he could not afford to buy anything.

Suddenly, a luxurious carriage caught Xu Qi ‘an’s attention. It was so bright that he was blinded.

It was a carriage pulled by four strong horses. The curved dome was silver and gold painted. The window was hung down with bright yellow satin. Below it was a house wrapped in clear white jade to cover the dust.

The sides of the wheels were nailed with a circle of neatly arranged gold nails, and the wheel itself was wrapped in Jade.

The real essence was the material of the carriage, the Golden nanmu used by the royal family.

I guess I won’t be able to afford a wheel even if I work hard for my entire life ... Xu Qi ‘an thought sadly, as if she had found the feeling of being a social animal in her previous life.

The luxurious carriage was parked on the side of the road, and a row of soldiers in black armor and holding long Spears guarded the carriage. Interestingly, the other row of soldiers was actually playing a game of pitch-pot.

The stall owner was an old Daoist priest in a tattered Daoist robe. His white hair was tied up with a wooden hairpin, and his messy hair hung down.

...

There were copper coins, silver ingots, gold ingots, Daoist Scriptures, Bodhi bracelet, jade stone mirror ... There were all sorts of things.

Not to mention the other things, just the fact that the gold and silver ingots were not snatched away from the stall meant that this old Daoist was not simple ... Xu Qi ‘an stopped and watched.

After watching for a while, he understood how the game was played. The pot thrower was thirty steps away from the porcelain pot. He covered his eyes and turned his back to the pot. There were three arrows.

If one of the arrows hit the target, they would be able to obtain some gold, silver, and Jade from the third Echelon. If all three teams hit the mark, they could choose any item from the first echelon.

The first echelon only had two items:The Bodhi bracelet and the Jade Mirror.

“It didn’t hit again, how hateful!”

“Go away, it’s my turn.”

The armored soldiers took turns throwing the pot but all returned in defeat. The pile of broken silver in front of the old Daoist grew higher and higher.

After another round of failure, Xu Qi ‘an noticed that the curtains of the carriage moved. An armored soldier by the window lowered his head and listened to the story before walking toward the stall owner.

“Old Daoist, my master said that he will buy everything in your stall with 60 taels of gold.” The soldier walked to the front of the old Daoist and said in a clear voice.

Was this a case of not hitting the target with pitch-pot and directly spending money ... Xu Qi ‘an stood not far away, watching this scene.

Faced with the temptation of sixty taels of gold, the old Daoist shook his head, ” rules are rules.

The soldier tensed up and glared at the old Daoist for a moment. Then, he turned around and returned to the carriage.

A few seconds later, the owner of the carriage called back the armored soldiers and prepared to leave.

Xu Qi ‘an took the opportunity to approach the old Daoist and asked, “”Old Daoist, how much does it cost to play once?”

The old Daoist who was sitting cross-legged on the ground raised his head, glanced at him, and handed over the three arrows, “”One silver coin.”

Xu Qi ‘an took the arrow and smiled, feeling that victory was in his hands.

For a martial artist in the spirit refinement realm, it was not difficult to throw a pot from thirty steps away. However, it was almost impossible to hit the target when the target was turned around and blindfolded.

The eyes were the most important part of the five senses. Losing one’s vision would reduce a martial artist’s sense of touch and increase the difficulty of hitting the target.

Whether or not he could hit the target depended on his luck.

Xu Qi ‘an’s expression was ugly, but he had absolute confidence, because he had not picked up any silver for several days in a row.

Is it because I came to the inner city and encountered this game of pitch-pot, so my luck is automatically accumulated?

‘If I can hit the target, all the gold and silver ingots will be mine ...’ Sigh, the life of a European king was so simple and boring ... Xu Qi ‘an walked 30 steps away, turned around, covered his eyes with a black cloth, and threw it behind him.

“Dong Dong Dong ...”

The three arrows were shot into the pot almost at the same time.

The surrounding passersby exclaimed in surprise, and the commotion attracted the attention of those who were about to leave the carriage. A gentle and pleasant voice floated out of the window, ”

“Stop the car!”

[ PS: I’m going on a business trip tomorrow. Sigh, I don’t really want to go out. After all, the epidemic isn’t completely over yet. I’m a little scared. ] But for sponsored partnerships, he could only bite the bullet and fly.

In other words, I might not be able to update during the day if I don’t have a computer by my side tomorrow. So, I’ll update the chapter in advance tomorrow afternoon. This wasn’t an additional update, it was an advanced update for tomorrow!
