The shopkeeper said apologetically outside the door.
"I'm sorry, young master. The people in the next room said someone stole their things."
The thief is coming this way. Could he have entered your room? They want to go in and check.”
"I hope you don't mind."
Hua Lingjian quickly let go of his hand.
Hou Yingying took a deep breath.
Then he said angrily.
"Who dares to break into my room?"
The shopkeeper was stunned. How did she become a lady?
Hou Yingying took off the men's hair crown on her head, let her hair down, pulled her collar loose, opened the door and looked directly at the shopkeeper, and said angrily.
"Boss, do you want to search my room? I'm a little tired and I was about to rest, but you woke me up."
When the shopkeeper saw her face, he was stunned for a moment.
After a moment of shock, he quickly apologized: "Ms. Hou, it turned out to be you. Of course I didn't dare to search your room. Of course I didn't dare."
The people from the Southern King behind him frowned.
The shopkeeper quickly explained to them.
"This is General Hou's legitimate daughter. How could she be harboring a thief?"
The shopkeeper thought, In our area, the first family that cannot be offended is General Hou's family.
Miss Hou is the apple of General Hou's eye. If they dare to touch Miss Hou, they will be met with General Hou's wrath.
As for the few people behind him, they are all from other places. It doesn't matter if they offend him.
The shopkeeper thought of this and waved his hand at them.
"There are no thieves here. You should look somewhere else."
Hou Yingying looked at the people who were looking for someone and asked with a frown.
"These people look unfamiliar. Where are they from?"
The eyes of the Southern King's men flickered slightly.
The shopkeeper explained immediately.
"They are escorts from the escort agency! They are passing by us!"
The Southern King's men were unwilling to give up, and there was no way they could continue the search. A powerful dragon cannot defeat a local snake. The woman in front of them was General Hou's daughter.
They were afraid of arousing her suspicion and exposing their identities, so they could only retreat.
Hua Lingjian, who was hiding in the house, was very surprised.
Unexpectedly, the other party turned out to be General Hou’s daughter.
The shopkeeper smiled and asked Hou Yingying about her well-being for a long time.
Suddenly he became a little suspicious.
"Miss Hou, you went to the martial arts competition to find a husband, why are you here?"
Hou Yingying's eyes flickered slightly.
"My house is a mess right now. I want to rest here for a while. I'll go after I change my clothes."
After that, he slammed the door.
The shopkeeper was helpless, thinking that she had the temper of a little girl, so he did not get angry and continued to settle the bill.
It seems that there are not many customers today.
The door is closed.
Hua Lingjian was still staring at her blankly.
"You are General Hou's daughter!"
Hou Yingying nodded.
"Yes, my name is Hou Yingying."
Hua Lingjian quickly bowed.
"I am the third son of Anguogong Hua Changjue! My name is Hua Lingjian."
Hou Yingying looked at him in surprise. Unexpectedly, the son of Duke Anguo was here.
But she knew the friendship between the two families. She also saw that Hua Lingjian was young and had clear eyes.
I relaxed a little bit.
"So what you just said, is it true that your sister was arrested?"
Hua Lingjian nodded.
But I couldn't say more, for fear that it would be leaked out and my sister would be in danger.
Hou Yingying knew that things were definitely not that simple, so she stopped asking questions.
"Then I have to go out now. If I don't go out, my father will definitely hear the news and come looking for me."
Hua Lingjian nodded.
"Okay, Miss Hou, take care."
Hou Yingying looked at him.
"I need to change my clothes."
Hua Lingjian was embarrassed. He couldn't go out now, so he could only turn his back.
Hou Yingying could only change her clothes behind him.
After a quarter of an hour, Hou Yingying said lightly.
"Okay, I'm leaving."
Before he could open the door, he paused again.
"Hey, I'm going to go out. The waiter will definitely come to clean the room and find you."
"If you go out through the window, you will be discovered by those people again."
"Why don't you come out with me? People will just think you're mine."
Hua Lingjian thought about it and nodded. He had already alerted the enemy. He could no longer act in secret. He was afraid that it would arouse the other party's suspicion.
Then my sister will be in danger.
It’s better to get out now.
The sister-in-law hiding in the dark will be safer and can continue to act.
"It still doesn't work!" Hou Yingying said, looking at his outfit.
"You're not going out with me dressed like this. We can't explain it even if we have a mouth."
"You need to change your clothes and come out with me."
Hua Lingjian was stunned and nodded.
"Okay, I'll follow Miss Hou's arrangements!"
Soon, Hou Yingying came out of the guest room with her maid.
The shopkeeper looked up and said hello, then continued to work.
Most of the people of the Southern King lived in the back yard. They usually ate in the yard. The few spies of the Southern King in the lobby only glanced at them and then looked away.
Other ordinary guests were also attracted away by the matter of Miss Hou's martial arts competition to find a husband.
So Hua Lingjian followed Hou Yingying and walked out of the door in a swagger.
There was only the little boy there, wondering.
I thought, this maid of the Marquis is really tall. She is almost as tall as her master!
As soon as the two of them came out, Hua Changjue noticed it immediately.
When they turned a corner, they were stopped by Hua Changjue.
Hua Lingjian's eyes lit up.
"Father!"
Hua Changjue was stunned for a moment, looking at the tall and strong woman behind Hou Yingying.
