Chapter 594: Lu Lin Nan Ge (2)
In order to help Jin Lier recover from her injuries faster, Chu Xiaomu performed exercises for her three times a day for the next three days, once in the morning, once at noon, and once in the evening.
Tomorrow is the Seven Cities Conference. Jin Lier’s injury has not yet fully recovered, but as the initiator of the conference, she has to attend.
Therefore, today was the last day for Chu Xiaomu to treat her injuries. After three times of practicing, it was already getting dark. Thinking that tomorrow was the Seven Cities Conference that had not been held for two hundred years, Chu Xiaomu was inexplicably excited.
There were long carpets laid inside and outside the castle gate that could not be stepped on, so he had to pass sideways from behind a row of soldiers.
After leaving the gate, he hurried to the guest house. Tomorrow was the Seven Cities Conference, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited. He was not an invited leader, so he was not allowed to enter the venue. Jin Lier suddenly had an idea and begged his father Jin Huapeng to give him a gold medal that could be used in Tiankun Castle. With his ear spirit, he would be able to know what happened in the venue at that time.
Jin Huapeng was not expecting him to be there, so he ordered his personal attendant to give him a piece.
Riding a yellow horse was too eye-catching, so Chu Xiaomu didn't ride one these days. He walked from the guesthouse to Tiankun Castle and back. His steps were light and it only took him more than half an hour.
There was still some distance to the inn where I was staying. Suddenly, I heard a pleasant jingle and the sound of horse hooves behind me. A clear female voice called out, "Excuse me, do you know where the general from Bicheng lives?"
Chu Xiaomu looked back and saw that it was Lu Linnan Ge, the girl with phoenix eyes and thin eyebrows. She was riding on a tall green-maned horse, holding the reins with her waist straight, and had the heroic spirit of a female general. She was alone, without any followers or guards following her.
Chu Xiaomu asked: "Are you asking me?"
Lu Linnan Ge said: "Of course I'm asking you."
Chu Xiaomu said: "Come with me, I will take you there."
Lu Linnan Ge raised his eyebrows and said, "Little brother, you are taking me there without even asking who I am?"
Chu Xiaomu said: "I know you, your name is Lu Linnan Ge."
Lu Linnan Ge tilted his head and thought for a while, then said, "You were indeed standing in the crowd when I entered Jinyang City. Is that why you got to know me?"
Chu Xiaomu became a little curious, thinking that there were at least eight or nine hundred people standing on both sides of the road that day, if not a thousand, how can you be so sure that I saw you in the crowd? He smiled and said, "Miss Lu Lin is very famous, and the clothes she wears are very different from those of the people in Jinyang City. I can recognize her without seeing her in advance."
Lu Linnan Ge said, "Don't lie to me. I saw you in the crowd that day." He paused and then said, "Where does the general of Bicheng live? Take me there quickly."
Chu Xiaomu pointed in the direction ahead and said, "It's over there, about another mile and a half away."
"Didn't I ask you to take me there? How can I find it when it's so far away? If you find it troublesome, I have some money to give you." Lu Lin Nan Ge really took out a round gold coin from his arms and threw it to Chu Xiaomu.
Chu Xiaomu took it and said with a smile: "This journey is worth it. I can earn such a large piece of gold in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea. I think it is worth four or five gold shell coins, right?"
Lu Lin Nan Ge frowned and said, "Stop talking nonsense and take me there quickly." After that, he whipped the horse whip in the air, making a crisp "snap" sound, and the green-maned horse started away.
Chu Xiaomu hurried to the front to lead the way, and asked as he walked: "It's so late, what are you looking for the general of Bicheng for?"
Lu Linnan Ge said, "This matter has nothing to do with you, so stop asking."
Chu Xiaomu was met with a cold shoulder at the first question, and he felt very uncomfortable. He thought to himself, I am the Zhongjun of the Nanding Army of Bicheng. Although you should be looking for Li Zhongjun who came to participate in the Seven Cities Conference, he has some relationship with me. How can you ask me not to ask? But I won't tell you now. It will be interesting when I meet Li Zhongjun and he tells me.
The two were silent for a while. Chu Xiaomu couldn't stand the embarrassment and asked again: "Miss Lu Lin, have you eaten?"
Lu Linnan Ge was obviously confused by his question and said, "Why are you asking this? What does it have to do with you whether I have eaten or not?" Chu Xiaomu was walking in front of her and couldn't see her expression, but he could guess that she must have a slanted eyebrow and a hint of anger at this moment.
Chu Xiaomu said, "Because Bicheng has arrived, the general must be preparing for dinner at this time." These past few days, Li Qi was led by Jinglan and Xiaoying to stroll around Jinyang City during the day. In the evening, he would always wait for Chu Xiaomu to come back and have dinner together. At this time, two or three quarters had passed the hour of Xu, and the sky had already darkened. They must be sitting at the table waiting for Chu Xiaomu to come back for dinner, so Chu Xiaomu was so sure.
Lu Linnan Ge was a little unconvinced and said, "Nonsense, as far as I know, the people in Bicheng have already eaten by this time."
Chu Xiaomu smiled and said, "If you don't believe it, we can make a bet."
Lu Linnan Ge said unhappily, "You are so boring, hurry up and leave, why are you talking so much!"
Chu Xiaomu was disappointed again, so he had to keep quiet and lead her to the inn where they were staying.
There was a restaurant not far from the guesthouse where they stayed, called "Swallow Terrace". The side dishes there were very special, and the people from Bicheng had been having dinner here for the past few days.
Chu Xiaomu walked to the door of the restaurant and went straight in.
Lu Lin Nan Ge pulled his horse to a stop, frowned and said, "You kid are lying to me! This is a restaurant for eating, not a guesthouse for staying!"
Chu Xiaomu said: "Didn't I tell you that the general of Bicheng is eating inside."
Lu Lin Nan Ge looked at him with half belief and half doubt, still a little unconvinced.
At this time, a shop assistant ran out and said, "Sir, you are finally back. They have been waiting for a long time."
The two of them went to the private dining room together. Li Xi and others were sitting at the table waiting. They were very curious when they saw Chu Xiaomu bringing back a woman wearing strange clothes.
Li Xian and Jing Lan had never seen Lu Lin Nan Ge.
Seeing that the people sitting at the table were all dressed in civilian clothes, Lu Lin Nan Ge grabbed Chu Xiaomu's arm and said angrily, "Are you kidding me?! I'm looking for the Central Army of Bicheng. I'm not kidding you!"
Chu Xiaomu said: "I'm not kidding you, so I asked you if you have eaten."
Xiaoying stood up angrily and said, "Why are you and Brother Xiaomu pulling and tugging like that? Let him go!" She had been with Jinglan for some time and understood that pulling and tugging between men and women was quite indecent, and in many cases it was impolite or very intimate.
