The heavens set sail from the courtyard

The four sisters of the Li family watched Wu Niang Leshan enter the box and did not come out for a long time, and they couldn't help but feel anxious.

"Xiaowu has been in there for so long? He won't be recognized, right?" Sanniang Kangning said anxiously.

"It shouldn't happen. When Fan Lianghan and I got married, Xiaowu was still young. Girls change a lot when they grow up. Fan Lianghan shouldn't be able to recognize her." Although Er Niang Fuhui said this, she couldn't hide the anxiety in her eyes.

Si Niang Haode was the most impatient and said, "I'll go in and find Xiao Wu."

"Don't." Aunt Shouhua held back the eager Si Niang Haode and said, "Don't act rashly. We're just going in to deliver some wine. It shouldn't be a problem. Wait a little longer."

Before, Fifth Lady Leshan suggested adding boy's urine into the wine to play a trick on Fan Lianghan, but Aunt Shouhua tried her best to stop her.

Among the five sisters, the eldest sister Shouhua is the most sensible. They can tease Fan Lianghan however they want at home, but not outside. This is not only related to the reputation of the Fan family, but also the reputation of the Li family.

Therefore, Wu Niang Leshan was simply delivering wine, and there shouldn't be any trouble.

However, no matter how smart Li Shouhua was, he could not have imagined that Wang Gang was also there.

Le Shan walked out of the box quickly, but to Aunt Shouhua's surprise, she was caught by Fan Lianghan.

Fan Lianghan looked displeased, grabbed Wu Niang Leshan's arm, and dragged her out, mumbling:
"You are such a clumsy boy, you have offended my cousin and his guest. I will let Manager Liu punish you later."

Le Shan wanted to escape from Fan Lianghan's "clutches", but she was weak and was afraid of making a big deal out of it and being exposed as a woman disguised as a man.

You know, it is already very bold for an unmarried girl to come to a restaurant late at night. If she is recognized by others, the Li family will have no chance of marrying off their daughter in the future.

In a corner not far away, the four sisters of the Li family were so anxious that they jumped for air when they saw their fifth sister being arrested.

"Oh no, the fifth sister has been caught, let's go and save her." Si Niang Haode rolled up her sleeves and wanted to rush out.

"Wait." Eldest sister Shouhua and third sister Kangning, one on the left and one on the right, held fourth sister Haode tightly.

"Something's wrong. Xiaowu doesn't seem to be recognized." Sanniang Kang Ning observed Fan Lianghan carefully and seemed to see something.

"If he recognized Xiaowu, he would never dare to grab her arm." Aunt Shouhua was wiser and saw the problem.

Fan Lianghan took Le Shan to Chai An's room and directly took out a set of clothes and threw it to Le Shan.

"I'll change clothes for Lord Wang later. You'd better be careful. If you make any mistakes again, my cousin won't be able to save you!" Fan Lianghan warned.

Ever since Fan Lianghan learned that Wang Gang would take up the post of the Left Army Inspector of Kaifeng Prefecture, he dared not treat him casually.

One of the duties of the Left Army Inspector General was to manage the market trade in Bian Jing, which happened to be in charge of the merchants. The Fan family wanted to do business in the capital, so they could offend no one but the Left Army Inspector General.

Wu Niang Leshan was completely confused at this moment. If she, a young girl, was asked to change Wang Gang's clothes, how would the Li family stay in Bian Jing if this got out?

"What are you doing here? Hurry up and leave." Seeing that Li Leshan was still in a daze, Fan Lianghan became furious.

Li Leshan came back to his senses, but he was still feeling anxious, and he couldn't move his legs.

Fan Lianghan didn't care about that and pulled Li Leshan out. As soon as he opened the door, everything went dark in front of him and a robe covered his face.

"Xiao Wu, hurry." Sanniang Kang Ning pushed Fan Lianghan down and ran away with Wuniang Leshan.

Le Shan was also smart. She knew her sisters were coming to rescue her, so she quickly ran away.

"Who attacked me?" Fan Lianghan struggled while sitting on the ground. He quickly opened his robe, but Li Leshan had already disappeared.

"Someone come, come quickly! Someone is making trouble in Pan Building." Fan Lianghan shouted angrily.

His noise immediately attracted a large number of drinkers to come over, and even Wang Gang and Chai An in the box heard the noise.

"It seems to be your cousin?" Wang Gang said to Chai An with a smile.

"What's going on? How can something go wrong just by grabbing a piece of clothing?" Chai An immediately stood up and walked out of the box. "Cousin, cousin, someone attacked me." Fan Lianghan shouted when he saw Chai An.

Chai An's face darkened when he heard this, and he quickly said to the drinkers around him: "It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding, my cousin got drunk and said nonsense."

After saying that, Chai An quickly grabbed Fan Lianghan and stuffed him back into the box.

"Why are you yelling? Is my restaurant open yet?"

Fan Lianghan also reacted and whispered: "Cousin, someone really attacked me. The boy just now was an accomplice. They must have come to steal something."

Chai An frowned and quickly called Manager Liu over. Upon asking, he found out that Pan Lou had not hired a servant tonight and the servant was not a distant relative of Manager Liu.

"Go find someone quickly and check what's missing from the building." Chai An said to Manager Liu seriously, "Remember, search in secret and don't alert other diners."

Shopkeeper Liu realized the seriousness of the matter, nodded in agreement, and ran to gather his employees.

"Brother Chai, since something happened in your restaurant, let's stop here today. I'm going home too."

"Brother Yuankang, I'm really sorry. I'll treat you to a banquet another day. I'll send a carriage to take you back."

"No need." Wang Gang said with a smile: "Panlou is not far from my home, it's a good opportunity to take a walk and get rid of the smell of alcohol."

Wang Gang politely declined Chai An's kindness and walked out of Pan Building alone. However, he did not walk towards home. Instead, he turned around and came to the alley behind Pan Building.

Five sneaky figures were hiding in the alley and were caught by Wang Gang.

"Brother A Le, why are you hiding here?" Wang Gang said jokingly.

When the five sisters of the Li family saw Wang Gang, they were all shocked, but when they saw Wang Gang's appearance clearly, they were relieved.

"Lord Wang." Aunt Shouhua protected her four younger sisters behind her and walked in front of Wang Gang.

"Madam Li." Wang Gang stopped playing around and revealed Li Shouhua's identity. He said, "You are so bold to come to Panlou disguised as men. Does Madam Li know?"

Li Shouhua sighed and said, "We came out without telling mother. I hope Lord Wang won't tell anyone."

Wang Gang frowned and said, "Where do you live? Go back quickly! Don't let anyone see you."

Li Shouhua said: "We will stay at the inn outside the city for now and go back soon."

"Outer city?" Wang Gang asked in surprise, "Don't you know there is a curfew in the inner city? The gate to the outer city is closed now, how are you going to get back?"

"Ah! Isn't there no curfew in Bianliang?" The five sisters of the Li family panicked.

"There is indeed no curfew in the outer city, but there is in the inner city. The gates of the inner and outer cities are closed at this moment and will not be opened until dawn tomorrow."

Bianjing was divided into the imperial city, the inner city and the outer city.

The imperial city is located in the center, the inner city is built relying on the imperial city, and the outer city is built relying on the inner city, which can be regarded as the third ring.

Most of the people living in the inner city are high-ranking officials and dignitaries. The city gates are closed at a certain time every day to separate the inner and outer cities.

The Li family had just arrived in Bian Jing and didn't know much about these things. Second Mother Fuhui did know about them, but she was so focused on Fan Lianghan that she forgot about it.

"What should we do? We can't go back to the inn, and we can't wander around outside all night." Sanniang Kangning said anxiously.

"There are people patrolling the inner city at night. If they see you, they will arrest you and take you to Kaifeng." Second Lady Fuhui said anxiously, "If it's not possible, you can come back to Fan Mansion with me."

"No." Aunt Shouhua frowned and said, "If we go to the Fan Mansion in men's clothes now and are seen by the servants, it will easily cause misunderstanding."

Wang Gang joked: "Why don't you just follow me home!" (End of this chapter)
