Although the "Jichun Craftsmen's Guild" has never had a rule prohibiting women from participating since its inception, her use of the pseudonym "Aqing" to register as a craftsman could not withstand close scrutiny.
If someone with ulterior motives tries to prosecute her under a pretext, then there's no way to reason with them.
Now, he only relies on Fu Rong's disguise skills to surpass Gongshu Jiruo's, so that Gongshu Jiruo will not suspect him.
"Just now, this humble monk and Master Gongshu were present and listened for quite some time. We were very interested in the carriage that Benefactor Aqing described. Now that the merchants have agreed to the rules set by Benefactor Aqing, how do you plan to demonstrate them next?" Mi Ku got back to the main topic.
Zheng Quchi, just like everyone else, showed a fanatical attitude towards Gongshu Jiruo's appearance.
Upon hearing this, she immediately praised Gongshu Jiruo highly, saying, "Why don't you ask Master Gongshu to tell us how you want Aqing to demonstrate? Today, I am fortunate to have the appreciation of Master Gongshu, and I naturally have no objections."
When Gongshu Ji heard her say this, he stared at her for a long time, and finally looked away with a slight disappointment.
His appearance, height, character, and even voice were all mismatched. Seeing his obsequious and eager attitude, he felt that he might have guessed wrong.
However, Gongshu Jiruo did not completely give up, simply because the sudden appearance of this Aqing was too suspicious.
He said, “Here, I am the guest, and you are the host. Since this carriage was made by craftsmen from Ye, you yourselves naturally know better how to showcase its advantages. However, since it is a carriage, it naturally needs horses to pull it. If you lack horses, I can…”
"Then there's no need to trouble you, Master Gongshu. We also have horses in our Ye Kingdom."
At the other end of the white stone arch bridge, Wang Zebang, Wei Yao, and Runtu each led a white horse over.
Upon seeing the three of them, Gongshu Jiruo knew that Yuwen Sheng's trip was not simply to attend the "Jichun Craftsmen's Guild," but rather he must have another purpose... But why is Yuwen Sheng not here right now?
"Although Ye State has its own horses, the venue still needs to be at my Wujue Temple," Miku asked without changing his expression.
Zheng Quchi immediately smoothed things over, saying, "Both Master Gongshu and Master Miku have shown their kindness."
Although Mi Ku disliked the aggressive manner of Yuwen Sheng's subordinates, he had a very good impression of A Qing. Seeing that she stepped in to protect him, he did not make things difficult for her.
“Apart from the forbidden areas and places of ascetic practice, you may choose any other area in the temple as a venue for your exhibition.”
So generous?
After a group of people arrived at the bamboo forest, a wide and flat square was built on the stone slab ground. Disciples were sweeping and cleaning it. When they saw people coming, they bowed and withdrew.
"Is this flat ground suitable for the journey?"
Zheng Quchi looked around but shook his head: "If we're going to seek thrills, then we should go all the way... What I mean is, this place is too flat. We can challenge ourselves with something more thrilling."
