More than two hundred Jinyiwei on horseback stopped at the gate of the Duwei Mansion.

The Jinyiwei in charge of the guard saw the leader wearing a light blue flying fish suit, his face froze, and he quickly stepped forward to pay his respects: "Greetings to the pacification envoy."

Kan Chaoyan dismounted and asked: "Are Lord Wei and Mr. Pang in the mansion?"

The guard said, "Yes, I will go and inform Lord Wei and Lord Pang."

"No need, I'll go find him myself."

Kan Chaoyan ignored the guards' obstruction and led two hundred centurions into the Duwei Mansion. Under the surprised gaze of everyone, he walked through the courtyard and came to Lord Wei's office.

The Jinyiwei guarding outside the office saw Kan Chaoyan coming, his face changed, and he hurriedly said to the people inside: "Master Wei, Master Pang, Master Kan is here."

There was a flurry of panic in the room, but it soon returned to calm.

Then, the people in the room opened the door, and Lord Wei and Lord Pang walked out.

"Kan Chaoyan, what wind brings you to Licheng?"

Kan Chaoyan laughed out loud: "It was your banditry from the south of the Yangtze River that brought me to Licheng."

"Bandits?"

Lord Wei was stunned: "Are you going to Canglong Mountain to suppress bandits again?"

Pang Da frowned slightly and said, "Why didn't we receive any news? Did it succeed?"

[If you guys find out, I’ll tell them about it again. Comrade Lao Kan and his team failed in their previous bandit suppression efforts partly because of you guys.]

The imperial guards in the capital: "!!!!"

The Jinyiwei in Jiangnan turned out to be the bandits' accomplices.

Kan Chaoyan's face changed slightly, and then he smiled and said, "It was the emperor who suddenly issued an order to suppress the bandits. We ourselves hurriedly led people to Jiangnan and had no time to tell you. This time, we won a great victory and captured all the bandits in Canglong Mountain without any effort. This is all because of the emperor's blessing."

[Tsk, if he could protect you, we wouldn't have ended up in failure before. Is it so difficult for you to admit that I helped you? ]

[Fortunately, I am not a person who seeks credit or profit, so it doesn’t matter if you don’t credit my achievements to me, but you must remember to give me more rewards.]

[Speaking of rewards reminds me of the treasures of Canglong Mountain. I forgot how many I took out. It’s all my fault that Captain Liu changed the subject and made me forget about it. What a big loss.]

[It's hard to accept the fact. How about stealing a few items from the national treasury after returning to the capital to appease myself? ]

Captain Liu: “…”

The Jinyiwei in the capital: "..."

Lord Wei and Lord Pang were even more surprised: "How did you take Canglong Mountain without any soldiers?"

Kan Chaoyan smiled and said, "We have an expert to help us."

"Master? Who?"

[The master is me, Master Mu, hehe. 】

[A small ninth-rank official defeated all the bandit leaders. I want to ask you fourth-rank officials, are you ashamed? ]

The imperial guards in the capital: "..."

Quite ashamed.

The combined strength of all of them is not as good as that of a little girl.

"No comment." Kan Chaoyan quickly changed the subject: "I came all the way here to see you, why don't you invite me in for a cup of tea?"

Lord Wei and Lord Pang looked at each other and said, "It's already noon. Why are you still drinking tea? We will invite you to the restaurant for dinner."

[I saw them glance at each other, both of them had an indescribable sense of guilt in their eyes, there was definitely something wrong here.]

[They didn't dare to invite Comrade Lao Kan in, because there must be a ghost in the house.]

Mu Nanjin used his spiritual sense to check the situation inside the house.

[Wow, there are indeed two people hiding inside, one wearing official robes, and the other wearing ordinary clothes. Although they are wearing ordinary clothes, judging from their eyes and temperament, they are definitely not ordinary people.]

[Alas, why are the official robes either embroidered with flowers or with birds and animals? I can't even tell what rank he is.]

[The old emperor should have the words "first rank", "second rank" or "third rank" embroidered on his official uniform so that I can recognize him.]

[Okay, it's time to test my eyesight. Let me first take a look at what kind of bird is embroidered on the official uniform? Are you sure it's a bird? The more I look at it, the more I think it looks like a chicken, or... a duck? The embroidery is too hard to recognize. ]

Jinyiwei in the capital: "..."

As far as they knew, there were no embroidered chickens or ducks on official uniforms.

[I'm so stupid. I should just read the gossip instead of watching embroidery.]

[Oh, so the people inside are the Licheng prefect, and another one is a confidant of the Holy Prince. Tsk tsk, they come here to bribe the Jinyiwei. ]

[The mountains are high and the emperor is far away, so it is really easy to get things done. 】

Jinyiwei in the capital: "..."

Kan Chaoyan's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled and said, "I'm just hungry. Which restaurant are you going to treat me to dinner?"

Lord Wei blurted out: "Of course it's the most expensive restaurant."

Kan Chaoyan teased him: "Wei Min, have you made a fortune recently? You are willing to treat me to a meal at the most expensive restaurant."

[Of course he has money if he accepts bribes privately. 】

Mr. Pang glanced at Lord Wei.

Lord Wei coughed lightly and explained, "It's not that you rarely come here, so I and Pang Daren will treat you to a meal at the most expensive restaurant. Let's make a deal first, when we go to the capital in the future, you will also treat us to a meal at the most expensive restaurant."

Kan Chaoyan said with a smile: "This is necessary. When you come to the capital, I will spend all my money to treat you to a meal at the most expensive restaurant."

Lord Wei put his arm around his shoulders and said, "Okay, I'll take note of what you said. Let's go to the restaurant."

Master Pang said to Master Wei, "I have something else to tell you. You go first and I will follow."

[He must be afraid that the bandits in Canglong Mountain will expose their bribery, so he is sending people to deal with the bandit leader in Canglong Mountain.]

Kan Chaoyan paused slightly.

Lord Wei was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

[Hehe, luckily I was prepared and just waiting for your people to arrive. ]

Kan Chaoyan smiled and said, "I suddenly remembered that the people I brought with me haven't had lunch yet, just like me. I have to make arrangements for them."

"Just let my people take them to dinner. There's no need for you to arrange it." Lord Wei turned around and said to his people, "Captain Kong, take the captains from the capital to dinner."

"yes."

Captain Kong made a gesture of invitation to Captain Liu and his companions.

Captain Liu and his companions followed Captain Kong to the cafeteria in the backyard, and Mu Nanjin immediately became unhappy.

【Didn’t you promise to take me to taste all the delicacies in Jiangnan? 】

[What's the matter with changing the cafeteria to eat? Are you just giving me a perfunctory treatment? ]

[I also want to go to the most expensive restaurant for dinner. I will quickly slip away while they are not noticing me.]

This is too much.

Captain Liu quickly turned around and called out, "Mu Nanjin."

[This guy must have a pair of eyes on the back of his head. He knows whatever I want to do. It's so annoying.]

Mu Nanjin, who was about to step back, stopped and asked with a straight face, "What's the matter?"

Captain Liu: "Are you tired? If not, I'll take you for a walk on the street."

[Did Captain Liu take the wrong medicine? He has become so considerate and reasonable. But I like it, hehe.]

Captain Liu: “…”

"Not tired." Mu Nanjin glanced at the other households. They looked a little tired because of their haste. "I'll ask everyone to go to the most expensive one..."

The eyes of the centurions in the capital suddenly lit up: "Okay."

[I said it before I even finished speaking. It turns out that men are all lustful animals. ]

How can going to the most expensive restaurant to eat make you a sex-loving animal?

Captain Liu rolled his eyes secretly: "What do you want to invite everyone to the most expensive place?"

"Drinking wine in the most expensive brothel."

The centurions of the capital: "..."

Captain Kong: "..."

"No..." Captain Liu held his forehead with his hand: "How can a girl like you go to drink wine?"

[I want to see if there is anything I can learn from the brothel in Licheng. When I return, I will renovate my family's brothel and make it flourish.]

All the hundred households: "..."

What a great ideal.

Mu Nanjin asked: "Are you going?"

Captain Liu reminded her: "It's noon now, the brothel is not open yet."

"oh."

Mu Nanjin nodded: "Then let's go to the most expensive restaurant for dinner."

Captain Liu was afraid that she would change her mind, so he quickly said to Captain Kong: "Please lead the way, Captain Kong."

"This..." Captain Kong said tactfully, "The minimum cost of the most expensive restaurant in Licheng is one hundred taels of silver, and each dish must cost at least ten taels of silver. With so many of us, I'm afraid the minimum cost will be ten thousand taels."

The centurions of the capital looked at Mu Nanjin.

【It’s time to show the importance of silver. 】

Captain Liu felt sorry for Mu Nanjin: "Mu Nanjin, how about we forget it?"

Ten thousand taels.

How many years would it take for a hundred households to save up ten thousand taels?

[I work so hard to earn money so that I don’t have to be tied up when I need it, so how could I be scared off by 10,000 taels?]

Mu Nanjin: "Let's go."

The centurions said excitedly, "Let's go."

Captain Liu smiled helplessly at Captain Kong and said, "Please lead the way, Captain Kong."

"Okay." Captain Kong thought for a moment and said, "Happy Residence is not far from us, and there is no place to tie up too many horses. How about we walk there?"

Captain Liu agreed: "Okay, let's go shopping."

【I like shopping.】

Mu Nanjin had never been shopping properly in the ancient times, so when he got to the streets, he would definitely do some shopping.

When they got to the street, Liu Bai finally understood what Mu Nanjin meant when he said it would be less fun with fewer people.

Because if there were fewer people, there would be no one to help her carry the package.

Mu Nanjin saw the beautiful pearl hairpin jewelry on the stall and bought whatever she liked.

When she sees beautiful skirts and robes, she buys them regardless of whether they fit her or not, or whether they are what she wears. As long as she thinks they are pretty or fun, she buys them.

Captain Liu was puzzled: "Mu Nanjin, can you use all these things you bought?"

There are so many hairpins that even if I change the styles every day, I still can’t wear them all in a year.

"I bought it for the girls and guys in my building."

[I enjoy the joy and process of shopping, not the results of buying. Of course, I enjoy shopping in any way that makes me happy.]

【Besides, my money is taken from the people, so of course I have to use it for the people.】

Captain Liu was very envious: "You are such a generous boss. It is a blessing for them to have you as their boss in their previous life."

Mu Nanjin looked at him and said, "Why don't you come work in my building? I will be very generous to you."

Captain Liu's mouth twitched: "No need."

Mu Nanjin ignored him and went shopping again.

The stall owners welcomed her very much, but the two hundred Jinyiwei following her were too terrifying. Moreover, all of them were Jinyiwei of the sixth rank, and their aura was more terrifying than that of Jinyiwei of the third rank and the ninth rank.

Everyone was trembling with fear when speaking to Mu Nanjin, for fear that they would be chopped by the knives on the waists of the Jinyiwei if they did not agree with her.

A shopkeeper bravely asked, "Girl, are you here to catch someone?"

"Catch someone?" Mu Nanjin didn't react for a moment: "Catch who?"

The captain standing behind Mu Nanjin said, "Don't be afraid, boss. We are just here to help her carry her things."

In order not to scare the other person, he tried to speak to him in a gentle tone.

The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good."

Isn't it a bit too much to just come here to help carry things?

They have lived here for so many years, but this is the first time they have seen more than 200 people coming to buy things.

I’m afraid even the governor of Licheng wouldn’t dare to do this.

Captain Kong, who was standing outside the door, asked Captain Liu, "Who is this little girl? Why do all the captains spoil her? Could she be a princess in the palace?"

Captain Liu asked him back, "Haven't you heard about her?"

"I don't even know who she is, so how could I have heard of her?"

"You must have heard about the only female Jinyiwei, right?"

Captain Kong was surprised and asked, "She is the female Jinyiwei?"

He had of course heard about Mu Nanjin, and also heard that her family background was average.

Moreover, he had always thought that the Jinyiwei of the capital, who considered themselves superior to the Jinyiwei of Licheng, would reject a little girl, but he did not expect that it was just the opposite. Everyone seemed to pamper her, and along the way, no centurion had any complaints.

Little did they know that they dared not complain at all. As for Mu Nanjin's financial and military strength, they dared not say a word.

What's more, Mu Nanjin knows everyone's privacy. It would not be worth it if she were to be upset and expose all their family assets.

It took them half an hour to walk the half-mile distance.

Half an hour later, they finally arrived at Happy Residence.

The shopkeeper of Happy House came out to greet them: "Greetings, gentlemen. Are you here to do business or to have a meal?"

Captain Kong said, "Let's have dinner. Please prepare a few rooms for us."

"Okay." The shopkeeper welcomed them in with a smile.

When the guests in the lobby saw a large group of Jinyiwei rushing in, they put down their chopsticks and looked at them.

The Jinyiwei looked around the store and found that the people sitting in the lobby were all martial artists. They all carried weapons and looked at them warily.

Captain Liu asked, "Do many martial artists gather in Licheng every time there is a martial arts conference?"

"This year, the martial arts conference was held in the Alliance Leader's Mansion, and the Alliance Leader's Mansion happened to be near Licheng, so many martial artists gathered there."

[The more martial artists there are, the better. This makes it more lively.]

[When they start fighting, I will also go to collect some. ]

[If they ask me which sect I belong to, I will say that I am from the Jinyiwei and that the entire imperial court is my backer. Their expressions will be very interesting, hehe.]

Jinyiwei: "..."

Captain Liu: “…”

He must keep a close eye on her.

But can he keep an eye on her ?
