Chapter 583 – Fresh Breeze and Spring Color

Some people thought that it was better to be low-key, even if one’s family was wealthy enough to travel, it was still very simple. Simple was definitely correct, but An Zheng had never thought that it was necessary.

Therefore, he stayed in the biggest and most luxurious inn in the Windy City. It took up over fifty acres. In front of them were three five-story high wooden buildings, which could already be considered the pinnacle of wooden structures. These three wooden buildings were in the shape of a zigzag shape and were tens of meters apart from each other.

When night fell, the lanterns on the three wooden buildings would light up. It was a beautiful scenery of Fresh Breeze City.

This inn was called West Ping Inn. It looked like a city within a city. It was surrounded by a stone wall, at least three meters high, with guards patrolling day and night. There were actually archers on the city wall, looking into the distance. Behind the three wooden buildings were large and small courtyards. The large courtyard could accommodate dozens of people, while the small courtyard was extremely luxurious and could accommodate a family.

An Zheng did not choose to stay alone because it was not convenient to observe.

But it didn’t mean that the price of living in a wooden building was cheaper than living in a single house, with three wooden buildings arranged in a zigzag pattern. The highest floor of each wooden building was connected to the entire floor, and was known as Shang Pin’s solitary residence. In other words, the entire fifth floor was a large suite. The cost of living in this suite for one night was enough for ordinary people to live in for several years.

In the entire fifth floor, there were three maids responsible for cleaning the place and the three maids responsible for living and eating. There was also a separate chef, a separate guide, and a separate manager who served them. In addition to these people, there was a female zither artist and a female tea artist. Including the six maids, there werotal of eight women. And if you want to do something with these eight women, you don’t have to pay alone, and none of them will refuse.

Even the woman who was responsible for cleaning the house was a mark of importance. Whether it was her appearance or body, she was the best choice.

The three women who were responsible for cleaning the room were wearing light green clothes. When they squatted down, they would reveal a scene that they could not conceal, which would attract the attention of others. As for the three women in charge of daily living, they were wearing light purple short dresses. The length of these dresses were already the limit. One could imagine just what kind of beauty would appear in front of their eyes when they bent down slightly.

The zither master wore a long white dress, while the tea artist wore a long blue skirt.

These were the most beautiful scenery in the world.

To be honest, they were powerless against their own fate, so their only hope was that the guests would not be too tiresome. Therefore, when a handsome young man like An Zheng, who seemed to be very pleasing to the eye, walked in, the few girls’ eyes lit up, and they smiled inwardly.

Perhaps this was sad, because they could only accept such an arrangement. Of course, they were also willing.

Wearing black embroidered clothes, An Zheng walked up to the fifth floor as the two maids standing by the door hurriedly went over to welcome him. When the two girls bent over, their chests and collars were very wide open, so when they bent their heads down, there were always things that made one’s imagination run amok. Actually, it was very easy to stir up one’s imagination, and in the eyes of a man, the most beautiful scenery was never a mountain oiver, but a woman.

“Thank you very much.”

An Zheng politely nodded his head, and then walked straight towards the window.

Very impressive.

Five storeys and five storeys of buildings on such a large scale was already very difficult to construct. But what was even rarer was that the three windows on the fifth floor were almost completely transparent. This was an era where there was no glass, so the materials used to make such a large french window could only be crystal. Even ordinary crystals that could not be used for cultivation were a luxury item that was hard to come by.

Very good, very good.

An Zheng stood at the window, looking at the City Lord’s Mansion in the distance.

The City Lord’s Mansion took uuge amount of space. It was even larger than this Xiping Inn. An Zheng sat down on the reclining chair by the French window. It was an extremely comfortable feeling. Outside the window, the scenery was beautiful and one could almost see half of the buildings in the city. There was a mountain in the distance, and a small lake in the courtyard downstairs. This feeling was very hard to forget.

“Can I ask you a question?”

An Zheng turned and asked.

A young girl wearing a light purple short skirt bent down beside An Zheng: “Go ahead and ask, Sir.

A faint fragrance emanated from his body, along with the scent of orchids. She looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, and her skin was so delicate that it seemed as if it might break at any moment. His complexion was very good. In his ruddy cheeks, there was the elasticity of youth. When she leaned over to speak, her mouth was close to An Zheng’s ear.

“Who is the owner of this Xiping Inn?”

“So young master is asking about this. Everyone in the Windy City knows that the Xiping Inn is the City Lord’s property.” “Looks like this is the first time Young Master has come to the Windy City. He still doesn’t know about the title of our Owner.”

It was only then that An Zheng realized that the City Lord of Qingfeng City, Xun Zhiwen, was the Marquis of Xi Ping. At that time, there were a few tribes in the western border that were rebelling. As the City Master of Qingfeng City, Xun Zhiwen immediately ordered for the rebellion to be annihilated, with over 40,000 people killed.

When this matter was reported to the Holy See, the Holy Emperor Chen Wunuo immediately ordered for Xun Zhiwen to be conferred the title of Marquis of Xi Ping.

“Will the Mayor come here often?”

An Zheng asked.

The young girl’s name was Lan Xi. She smiled and shook her head. When she shook it, the long ponytail behind her head would sway along with her.

“Since the Mayor is so busy, why would he come to the inn so often? The inn’s business was managed by the City Lord’s specially placed Mr Xu, including the inn and the hotel’s casino. And our inn’s manager is Mister Lu, he’s also one of the City Lord’s trusted aides. ”

An Zheng took out a silver note and handed it over to Lan Xi. “Thank you very much.

“Then I won’t disturb you anymore, Young Master. If you have any orders, feel free to tell me. As long as it’s within our capabilities.”

Lan Xi lowered her head and kissed An Zheng’s face. “I hope you can have a good night’s sleep.”

An Zheng was startled, even he could not help but become somewhat shaken. That young girl’s kiss came so easily, yet it left a deep impression on him. An Zheng turned his head to look at the girl who had walked out with his ponytail behind his.

If you want to kill someone, you need to first understand them.

An Zheng squinted his eyes and dozed off on his chair. He had actually been observing the topography and architecture of the City Lord’s Mansion over there. An hour later, An Zheng stood up, walked to the bathroom at the side, and prepared to wash and change clothes. Right after entering the bathroom, Lan Xi and another girl in a purple short skirt quickly walked in and reached out to help An Zheng take off his clothes. An Zheng hesitated but he did not reject.

If a person was too special, it would cause unnecessary trouble.

However, An Zheng was still unable to calmly accept this kind of treatment. If it was someone else, and no one was watching him when he was outside, it would be fine to just go with the flow. But when the two girls took off their clothes and wanted to jump into the bathtub, An Zheng immediately ran out and broke the act.

“Young master, where are you going?”

“About that, I suddenly don’t want to take a bath anymore. I’m a bit hungry so I went out to take a walk. You don’t need to wait for me to eat, I might not come back early.”

“Could it be that young master isn’t satisfied with us?”

The young lady said apologetically as she held her head and looked up at An Zheng wititiful expression.

An Zheng dodged far away as if he had met his natural nemesis, “I still have to go out, it’s too late. If I don’t want to talk with you guys, you guys can chat on your own. ”

He randomly fished out a new set of clothes and put them on. It was a moon-white brocade robe. Previously, when he was dressed in black, An Zheng gave off a calm and manly beauty, but this time, when he changed into white clothes, he immediately looked a bit more sunny and gentle.

An Zheng dried his hair, tidied up his clothes and prepared to go downstairs. After walking a few steps and hearing the soft laughter from behind, he turned around and saw that the two girls were lying on the edge of the large bathtub, looking at him with brilliant smiles along with ridicule. An Zheng snorted and walked away, looking to be in a sorry state. As for the two young girls, their smiles were even more dazzling. They were so beautiful that they couldn’t be seen in the water.

An Zheng hurriedly left the door, thinking that it was no wonder so many people were obsessed with this path, the temptation was truly great.

He went downstairs and aimlessly walked down the street towards the City Lord’s Mansion. As he walked, he bought some local snacks and stuffed them into his mouth. With regards to eating, An Zheng had never been a reserved person, and he wasn’t fat either.

As he walked a few steps, he suddenly thought of something. He turned around and saw that the girls were standing at the big French windows on the fifth floor, looking at him. Seeing An Zheng turning back, they all waved their hands. An Zheng was shocked, he immediately escaped.

From such a distance, An Zheng even thought he heard their laughter.

An Zheng retracted his gaze from the Xi Ping Inn and adjusted his breathing so that he would not think about other things. His target was the City Lord of Windy City, a person witrominent position in Da Xi city. The City Lord of Da Xi was equivalent to a border envoy, and had a lot of power. To face such an opponent, An Zheng had to think about many things.

An Zheng had never fought with Xun Zhiwen before, he only knew that his ultimate skill was called brush and ink. To be able to climb this high, even people from aristocratic families would not be an easy task. An Zheng was always walking around the City Lord’s Mansion, he looked like he had nothing to do, but everything that he heard would help him.

The Mayor’s Mansion wasn’t too far away from the Xiping Inn. It would only take an average person ten minutes to get there. As An Zheng ate along the way, he suddenly noticed that the impoverished old man called Ye Changkong was selling his skills not far from the City Lord’s Mansion’s main gate. The monkey clearly did not see An Zheng, but it suddenly turned its head and bared its fangs, revealing a threatening expression.

Ye Changkong turned around and smiled at An Zheng.

Right at this moment, a dozen or so bailiffs dressed in official clothing walked in from afar with quick steps. Without saying a word, they swung their whips towards Ye Changkong’s face, “You old beggar who the hell wants to set up a stall and show off his skills!”

Ye Changkong subconsciously used his hand to block, but it was too slow. The whip landed on his face and immediately left a long wound.

One of the bailiffs stepped forward and stabbed a foot into Ye Changkong’s chest. The old man could not withstand the force and directly fell backwards.

Several bailiffs went on to beat him up, “God damn, do you know this is the City Lord’s Mansion?! You actually dare to perform outside the City Lord’s Mansion, causing us to be scolded and we’ll beat you to death! ”

The bailiffs surrounded the old man and attacked him. The old man only dared to dodge and did not dare to resist. The surrounding people also did not dare to meddle in this, and began to discuss amongst themselves. An Zheng kept feeling that there was something wrong with the person called Ye Changkong, but he didn’t know where this strangeness came from. He had already carefully observed Ye Changkong with his Heaven’s Eyes and confirmed that he was not a cultivator. However, An Zheng had a feeling that there was some sort of connection between himself and Ye Changkong.

An Zheng originally wanted to go over to stop them, but because of that feeling, he gave up.

The monkey was squatting on the ground and baring its teeth, as if it was threatening the bailiffs. However, the few bailiffs were obviously not scared of a monkey. Just as they were about to whip the monkey, Ye Changkong threw himself at them and protected them with his arms.

The monkey stretched its head out of Ye Changkong’s embrace and brandished the wooden stick in its hand, as if it was going to beat those servants to death.
