The table was adjacent to the window, so Xiao Yi could observe the already crowded atmosphere of Yubei city this morning. People pass by with their respective busyness. Traders on the right left of the road were also so crowded shouting to offer their merchandise.
Xiao Yi's eyes suddenly fell on a female accessories salesman across from the tavern.
Xiao Yi called the maid with a wave.
"Yes, lady.there's something I can help you with"
"Can you take care of my candy basket?"
"Where's the hell is the hell you going?"
"I was about to take a look at the accessories across the street" Xiao yi pointed to the field of an accessories salesman across the street.
"But lady, Mr. Ding asked us to keep the lady inside the shop"
"Mr Ding?" Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows.
The young waiter pointed to the shopkeeper who was busy talking to some of the new customers.
"Mr Ding is my employer, the owner of this shop, miss" the young maid explained.
"I just want to look around at the accessories in front of that!" Xiao Yi became annoyed with the servant's reply. A shopkeeper's time can hold him back like a thief like this.
Xiao Yi stood up from where he sat with an irritated look.
Seeing that tension, Mr. Ding the tavern owner immediately came over.
"What's wrong, miss? " he asked as he bowed, coming to Xiao Yi.
"I just wanted to take a walk across the street, to see some accessories, but she forbade me!" Xiao Yi pointed at the young maid who was standing with fear in her place standing.
"Sorry lady, Your Majesty told you to make sure the lady is in the store until Your Majesty returns" the tavern owner said in a low volume voice as his eyes glanced to the right and to the left making sure no one was listening to their conversation.
"I was just walking forward there, a few steps from the front of this tavern. Is that also prohibited?" Xiao Yi glared in annoyance.
"But miss..."
"I'm going to go there anyway or you can tie me to this chair!" challenge Xiao Yi.
Mr. Ding looked at each other with his servant, then nodded his head in surrender to the beautiful girl in front of him.
Looking at their situation, it was impossible to prolong the debate. This can attract the attention of other shop visitors.
"Miss can go to the store across the street, but please come back before Your Majesty arrives"
Said Mr. Ding slowly.
"Shuye will accompany miss."
Xiao Yi smiled triumphantly.
"Just calm down, I'll be back at this table before you even realize. Please take care of my candy basket..." Xiao Yi stepped cheerfully out of the teahouse following the young servant who was walking stiffly behind his back.
"Let's go, let's see.all pretty."
The accessories seller eagerly offers his merchandise lined up, neatly arranged on the table.
"Look at this very nice bracelet that just arrived yesterday, it fits well with the beautiful miss" The merchant showed a transparent green bracelet carved like a two-headed dragon.
Xiao Yi was not interested in the fake jade bracelet, his eyes fixed on a unique object a hair ornament.
Xiao Yi looked admiring the chai, a fork-shaped headdress of hair.
The chai is sky blue from silver with small flower carvings attached to the leafy twigs that form a circle and in the middle there is a pair of golden-colored birds facing each other.
"Price seven mademoiselle"
Xiao Yi touched his waist where he usually hooked the coin bag when he was walking around in Youwu city.
Xiao Yi's face suddenly changed, then soon he realized, he was not carrying any money. He only followed His Highness Yan Yue without bringing anything but his body.
Xiao Yi put back the beautiful chai with a heavy heart. She's a concubine of the number one person in the country, but she doesn't have a single coin. He felt poorer than a beggar sitting next to a cloth merchant's stall. Inside the wooden bowl he was holding there were some coins lying around. Wasn't he richer than Xiao Yi?
"Miss, the price is cheap miss, for goods as good as this lady will not be able to get it anywhere else" persuaded the seller of accessories.
"Next time..." Xiao Yi turned around disappointedly, just as he was about to step, in front of him stood three young men with a crimson face, seemingly half drunk. The young men seemed to be from quite a few quarters, judging from the clothes they used seemed to be of pretty good material.
"Beautiful girl.I've never seen a girl as beautiful as a miss around here" one of the young men, looked at Xiao Yi with a perverted face.
"I'll pay that chai for you, if you're willing to accompany us for wine..."
the young man came forward, about to touch Xiao Yi's arm.
With swiftness but trembling, Shuye advanced in front of Xiao Yi, blocking with his thin body.
"Don't disturb my non, don't.." his hand in his range, his voice stammering.
Xiao Yi looked at them furiously, people like this have no manners with women.
"Go away, Shuye..." Xiao Yi pushed Shuye's body beside him.
"I want to see if they dare to touch my skin" Xiao Yi said with a very displeased look.
Shuye's mouth gawked at the girl, disbelieving the courage hidden behind the beautiful face.
"Oh, this girl is really interesting.you turned out to be brave as well, yes.." the young man at the very front pushed forward, but Xiao Yi just shifted a little, his right hand bent making a groaning motion, he said, then in the next second his arm hit the young man's side body.
The half-drunk young man was pushed forward and fell to his knees right on the accessories merchant's lap table, which then shouted in surprise, inviting the attention of the people around. The place was fleeting in a crowd of people.
"Hey, this brash woman asked to be beaten up as it turned out!" the young man behind advanced blindly. He was about to smash his body towards Xiao Yi.
The girl advanced her left leg into horses, her hands clenched in front of her chest, ready to stand in the way.
It had not been time for the young man to reach where Xiao Yi was preparing to wait for the attack, a loud kick struck the drunk young man.
In an instant, his body floated up against the pillar of the grocery store behind the cloth seller's stall. The sound of thumping on the body that fell on the ground in an unconscious state. The other young man immediately ran off the ridge from the place of otu
Xiao Yi averted his gaze, staring at a man in a robe of linen, a very young lavender purple.
His long black hair in the pigtails high up, the rest loosely.
The hair was as black as his thick brows tapering like a sword, shading his pitch-black eyeballs, more dense than the black jade from Heiyu Mountain.
The firm jaw was as strong as his sturdy sturdy body which stood gallantly.
He looked straight at Xiao Yi who was standing glued to his place, the mighty handsome man felt his heartbeat irregular like a wave hitting a reef, he said, it was as if the sound of his heart could be heard by him alone. In an instant a warm sensation ran through his body like he had just gulped the hardest wine, never had he seen such a beautiful brave girl.
incredible bravery wrapped neatly in the appearance of a simple clothed goddess.
She had actually fallen in love at first sight...!
