Mu Nanjin took three days off to take care of household matters. First, he hired someone to clean the house, then bought furniture to decorate the rooms, and finally, he hired three servants to help manage household affairs.

Only after finishing these things did she feel that this house belonged to her.

Fortunately, after the holiday, all civil and military officials have a day off, so she can finally have a good sleep.

But man proposes, God disposes.

Before the morning, someone knocked on her door.

"Girl, someone is looking for you."

The person outside was a maid that Mu Nanjin bought from a broker for fifty taels of silver. Her name was Zhenzhu. She was one year older than Mu Nanjin, but she was as strong as a man and even stronger than a man.

Mu Nanjin slightly opened his eyes in his sleep, and seeing that it was still dark outside the window, he asked unhappily, "Who is it?"

"He said his name was Tang Jingrui."

When Mu Nanjin heard Tang Jingrui's name, for a moment he felt like he was still in the Tang family.

She muttered, "As expected of the Jinyiwei, they found this place so quickly."

Zhenzhu continued, "He told you to get out quickly because there is a group of people waiting for you outside."

"A team? Are they preparing to go on business?"

After washing up, Mu Nanjin came to the gate and saw Kan Chaoyan waiting for her outside with a team of two hundred people. Every Jinyiwei was above the sixth rank, and they were wearing either dark blue flying fish uniforms or dark purple flying fish uniforms. They all rode tall and strong black horses, looking indescribably majestic.

Whether ordinary people or officials, they would tremble in fear when they saw them.

[Wow, there are so many high-ranking Jinyiwei coming to pick up a ninth-rank Jinyiwei like me. I am so honored. I won’t bother with you about asking me to get up early.]

The Jinyiwei was divided into nine ranks. The highest rank was the governor of the first rank, followed by the governor-general of the first rank, then arranged in descending rank were the governor-general's assistant, the commander-in-chief, the Jinyiwei commander, the Jinyiwei assistant, the Jinyiwei assistant, the pacification envoy, the forty thousand households, the deputy thousand households, the five hundred households, the hundred households, the general flag, the small flag, the Jinyiwei martial arts professor, the Jinyiwei martial arts instructor, the Jinyiwei general, and finally the ordinary Jinyiwei of the ninth rank, which is Mu Nanjin's current position.

The highest-ranking Jinyiwei she had seen so far were the fourth-rank pacification envoys Kan Chaoyan and Deng Xingchao.

The Jinyiweis sitting on their horses all looked at her at the same time.

Kan Chaoyan smiled and said, "Mu girl, you finally came out. We have been waiting for you for a long time."

[Isn't it natural for a man to wait for a woman? If he doesn't even have this little bit of patience, no wonder seven out of ten Jinyiwei are single.]

Everyone: “…”

Mu Nanjin asked: "Where are you going to come to see me so early in the morning?"

Captain Liu said, "Today the Emperor and the Empress Dowager are going to the Jingtuo Temple outside the city to burn incense, and they need someone to protect them."

[Burn incense? Get up early in the morning just to burn incense!? The emperor is really bored. He has a rare day off, but instead of sleeping in the palace, he has to go out and make trouble. With such a lot of energy, he might as well stay in the harem and spend more time with the ladies, so that he won't be cuckolded. ]

The Jinyiwei agreed with this statement very much.

Mu Nanjin frowned: "I am just a weak woman. Not only do you not protect me, but you also want me to protect others!?"

"Aren't you the only female guard in the Jinyiwei and the Imperial Guards? I can only ask you to stay by the Queen Mother's side to pretend and deceive people."

Of course, these words were said to coax Mu Nanjin. In fact, the Queen Mother thought that if she took Mu Nanjin with her, she would not feel bored on the road.

At the right time, Zhenzhu came to Mu Nanjin from the backyard leading the horse.

"The emperor and his men have already left the city gate. Let's catch up with them."

Kan Chaoyan gave a loud gong and rode away on his horse.

Others followed closely behind.

[Well, let’s just treat it as a picnic. ]

Mu Nanjin resigned himself to following them.

After leaving the city, we chased for ten miles and finally caught up with the main group.

Mu Nanjin looked at the team of thousands of people and rolled his eyes.

[Is it because they are afraid that others will not know that the emperor is in the team by making such a big scene? Or is it to deliberately attract attention and make everyone think that the emperor is here, when in fact the emperor and his men have already gone to Jingtuo Temple in plain clothes.]

[Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. These are not my concerns. I'd better check if there is any new gossip for my entertainment. Speaking of which, I haven't read gossip for three days, and I don't know how much content has been updated.]

When Mu Nanjin opened the Bagua system, the people around him suddenly felt like they were sitting on pins and needles, tensing their bodies as if a disaster was about to happen.

[Haha, everyone is selling off their belongings to buy my medicine. I knew my medicine was in great demand. What a pity...]

What a pity! Everyone pricked up their ears.

[I don’t sell honest officials, I only sell corrupt officials.]

Why only sell corrupt officials?

There was a flash of doubt in everyone's eyes.

As they waited for further instructions, they heard the sound of a carriage behind them.

Everyone immediately became alert.

"Is the person in front the wooden guard?"

When Mu Nanjin heard Gong Xiurong's voice, his eyes lit up slightly and he turned his horse around and came to Gong Xiurong's carriage.

"Master Xiurong."

Tang Jingrui frowned: "Master Xiurong has a really good eye. He can recognize Mu Nanjin at a glance even in such a dim sky."

"You Jinyiwei are all tall men, but she is slender, so of course she is easy to identify." Gong Xiurong asked casually, "Where are you going?"

Mu Nanjin said: "Jingtuo Temple."

Tang Jingrui scolded: "Mu Nanjin, how can you casually reveal our whereabouts to others?"

[Do I need to reveal this? You guys made such a big scene, you almost said "The emperor is going to Jingtuo Temple, everyone come and kill him", I don't need to say this, anyone with a brain knows it. ]

Jinyiwei: "..."

Mu Nanjin ignored Tang Jingrui and turned to ask Gong Xiurong: "Where are you going?"

Gong Xiurong saw that Mu Nanjin didn't take Tang Jingrui seriously and the other Jinyiwei didn't blame her, so he became more curious about Mu Nanjin's identity.

"Today is the fifteenth day of the lunar month. I will also go to Jingtuo Temple to burn incense."

Mu Nanjin raised his eyebrows: "Just to burn incense?"

Gong Xiurong laughed: "What else? Go to meet the monk in private?"

Mu Nanjin glanced at the system that was not turned off and saw the content of the gossip news.

【interesting……】

There was no further news after those three words, which really whetted the appetite of the Jinyiwei.

What's interesting?

Hey, please explain yourself clearly.

Damn, they are really anxious.

Mu Nanjin said: "There are many people offering incense. If you have any problem, just call 'Mu Nanjin'."

Gong Xiurong raised the corner of his mouth: "If I call you, will you come?"

Mu Nanjin nodded: "Yes, I will bring the emperor to rescue you."

Everyone: “…”

Gong Xiurong didn't expect Mu Nanjin to answer him like this. He couldn't help but burst out laughing, holding his forehead: "Haha——"

He hasn't been this happy in a long time.

Good night, my dears. 　　 　 (End of this chapter)
