Chapter 310: Chapter 204: Arrival at Yan Capital City, Yuzhu Alley (Part 2)

Compared to Shang Jingchuan’s excitement, Shang Luoluo seemed rather uninterested.

"It’s alright, not too thrilling." Shang Luoluo said calmly.

Shang Jingchuan was caught off guard and could only cover his awkwardness with a dry laugh.

Zui’Er chuckled quietly on the side, then lifted the carriage curtain to observe the surroundings.

The road here was bustling, crowded with horse riders, carts, and pedestrians, filling the wide official road to the brim.

Under such circumstances, the convoy couldn’t speed up even if they wanted to and could only slowly make their way towards the Capital City with the flow of traffic.

Fortunately, it was only a dozen or so miles, so they arrived quickly.

Upon passing through the tall city gates and entering the city, Zui’Er could hardly take it all in and found everything refreshing.

Although Yunxiao County was also lively, it couldn’t compare with the thousand-year-old heritage of the Capital City.

Just the endless line of shops by the street gave Zui’Er a small shock.

After enduring the initial congestion, the road finally became clear further ahead.

"Luoluo, where are we heading?" Zui’Er asked.

"Xiaojing Alley in Guangde Square, that’s where our house is," Shang Luoluo replied.

"Is it far?"

"Not too far, just across four squares."

Although Shang Luoluo said it wasn’t far, the carriage still took half an hour to reach the destination.

Guangde Square was considered a decent market in Yan Capital City, located towards the northeast, just three squares away from the Imperial City, so residents here were mostly officials.

The Shang Family had a residence here.

The mansion wasn’t large, with only two courtyards, but this was a property that most people couldn’t dream of affording in a lifetime.

If it weren’t for some savings in Shang Jingchuan’s family, with his salary, he wouldn’t be able to buy this place in three lifetimes.

This residence couldn’t accommodate so many people.

Luckily, they had reached the Capital City, so the mission of the guards was over.

Most of them would return to Yunxiao County, except for a few who had been with Shang Jingchuan for many years and stayed behind.

These people then first stayed at a nearby inn.

As for Zhao Ya and Zui’Er, they naturally didn’t have to do this.

Zui’Er stayed with Shang Luoluo, while Zhao Ya stayed in a separate room nearby.

After a long period of bustle, they finally settled down.

They quickly ate dinner, and everyone, looking exhausted, went to their rooms to sleep.

However, Zhao Ya didn’t sleep.

He planned to take a walk outside first, to find out where Changping Square’s Yuzhu Alley was, and hopefully, learn where Mo Qi lived, so he could visit tomorrow.

It wasn’t that Zhao Ya was in a hurry.

But the sooner this matter was resolved, the better.

After all, Lu Dingtai couldn’t guarantee that Mo Qi was still in the Capital City.

If not, he would have to make other plans sooner.

Zhao Ya didn’t tell anyone else and left the Shang Mansion alone after everyone went to sleep, heading to the street outside.

Although it was already night, some main streets were lit, making them quite bright.

In the distance, some noises could still be heard.

These came from the commercial districts, which had many shops and few residents, often staying open all night, making them quite lively.

Despite not being very familiar with the geography of Yan Capital City, Zhao Ya moved smoothly.

Because most streets in Yan Capital City were laid out in straight lines, even if lost, one could always find a way out by following the streets.

After leaving Guangde Square and arriving at a main street, the hustle and bustle of people going back and forth almost reminded Zhao Ya of modern times.

No wonder so many families congregated here; such a prosperous and lively place surely held a strong allure to ordinary people.

Zhao Ya first walked along the main street for a while, enjoying the rare night scene, then started thinking about how to get to Changping Square.

Yan Capital City was vast, and without knowing the way, finding a place could prove quite difficult.

However, the mouth below one’s nose was very useful.

So, Zhao Ya casually stopped a passerby and smiled as he asked, "Excuse me... um, miss."

Judging by the back, he presumed it was a hefty man, but upon turning around, it was surprisingly a woman.

Only, this woman’s physique rivaled that of a man’s, and Zhao Ya even caught sight of two tufts of nasal hair protruding from her nostrils, causing him to reflexively step back half a step.

Upon seeing Zhao Ya, the woman brightened.

Such a handsome, dashing young man, she had never seen before.

So she gazed at Zhao Ya with eyes shining, "Honored sir, may I ask what business you have with me?"

"May I inquire about the location of Changping Square?" Zhao Ya asked, forcing a polite smile.

Hearing the words ’Changping Square,’ the woman immediately blushed, lowered her head that was as large as a water pot, and bashfully said.

"Oh sir, how could you flirt with me as soon as we meet?"

Zhao Ya’s smile froze on his face.

How did asking directions turn into flirting?

At this moment, the woman looked up again, shyly gazing at Zhao Ya.

"If sir wishes, I am willing to share a bed..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Zhao Ya clasped his hands in respect.

"My apologies, I have urgent matters to attend to, farewell!"

With that said, Zhao Ya’s figure dashed away instantly, leaving the woman standing there in a daze.

After a while, she snapped out of her shock, looking blissfully at the sky.

"Thank you, Buddha, for bestowing this fate. Tomorrow I shall burn more incense, hoping to see this ideal husband again."
