Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Only Shu Yu had asked Daniu to carry a bag.
There was nothing in the bag that could be traded. Within it were just some things that she used to disguise herself.
It was inconvenient for her to put it in the carriage. Moreover, she had to keep it by her side just in case. She was afraid of encountering something in the black market, so she prepared for it.
Anyway, all kinds of people entered the black market. It was not unusual for them to carry bags everywhere.
Shu Yu asked Daniu to open the bag and remove a piece of clothing. She had brought a set of men’s and women’s clothing. Women’s clothing could not be used on Yuan Shanchuan. Men’s clothing was too long for Yuan Shanchuan.
But it didn’t matter.
Shu Yu asked Daniu to change it for him and took the opportunity to go to the toilet.
Daniu had already finished changing that man’s clothes when they came out.
Shu Yu asked him to block the fake mountain while she changed Yuan
Shanchuan’s hairstyle. Part of his hair was put down, covering his face.
Then, she smeared his face. She hadn’t noticed it before, but now she realized a bruise on Yuan Shanchuan’s face and the corner of his mouth.
She didn’t know what he had gone through during his disappearance.
Shu Yu didn’t have much time. After she was done, she asked Daniu to carry him out.
Yuan Shanchuan was very thin, and his clothes were long enough to cover his torn shoes.
Daniu carried him on his back. His head was lowered and covered most of his face. As long as one did not raise his head, one would be unable to find out who he was.
Daniu lifted him and asked, “Lord, what should we do now? Leave the black market and go home?”
Shu Yu shook her head. “Not now. If we leave now, we’ll attract attention and be exposed immediately. Let’s hide him first.”
“Where are we going to hide him? People in the black market are still looking for him.”
“Hide him in the private room. Let’s book a private room on the second or third floor.’
Daniu saw her walking forward and was about to follow her. When he heard her words, he gasped.
“What did you say? A private room?” He lowered his voice and did not bother changing how he addressed her. “Yu, that private room fee is thirty taels of silver. You, you…” He wondered if Shu Yu was out of her mind.
Shu Yu shook her head. “Don’t worry, someone will help me pay for this.”
“Who?”
“Lord Xiang.” Shu Yu found it funny. Although Yuan Shanchuan was her uncle, he was also the criminal that Lord Xiang was looking for. She had also revealed to Xiang Weinan that her fourth uncle might have some important evidence.
She had found such an important person. In order to protect him and bring him out safely, wouldn’t he have to pay for the silver spent as a stopgap measure?
Shu Yu had actually thought about looking for Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi, but she didn’t know which private room they were in. She couldn’t just look for them one by one. That would be too suspicious.
She could only wait until the auction ended and head downstairs to look.
If she wanted to bring Yuan Shanchuan out, she might need their help.
Daniu didn’t say anything after hearing Shu Yu e s words. Since they did not need to pay themselves, he felt less burdened.
It was more important to save Fourth Uncle first.
He carried the unconscious Yuan Shanchuan on his back and followed Shu Yu into the small building.
At this moment, the auction was going on intensely, especially in the private rooms upstairs. The bidders bid one after another. Although the guests in the lobby did not participate in the auction, they were also excited.
Shu Yu and the other two came in from the side door, and no one noticed them.
She quickly led Daniu to the second floor. As soon as she went upstairs, a black market staff approached her..
