A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 942 Du Juan Relieves the Situation
The night watchman's clapper had just struck the hour of Xu.

The sky was dark as a curtain, and the full moon had a missing tooth.

The streets of Rang County were deserted, with only Qiang soldiers arresting people, and occasional sounds of dogs barking and crying.

Yuan Wuyou, who had climbed over walls and ridges and dodged the Qiang soldiers all the way, realized that his black clothes were too conspicuous. He did not dare to show himself in front of the Qiang soldiers, so he wanted to find one of their clothes to change into.

Just as this thought came to her mind, she happened to see Qiang soldiers driving a group of girls towards her on the street not far away.

They were all dressed neatly in Western short-sleeved skirts and pants, with gauze cloaks wrapped around their shoulders, and each of them half-covered their faces with gauze. Yuan Wuyou guessed instantly that they were the virgins selected by the so-called "gods and Buddhas".

Yuan Wuyou knocked out a girl at the end of the team, dragged her to the yard next door, changed her clothes, and covered her with a straw basket to prevent any passing criminals from seeing her unconscious and doing anything to her.

But she couldn't bring in the sword she was wearing and the knife in her wrist guard. Yuan Wuyou looked around and found a dog hole in the corner of the yard next to her, and there were fallen bricks on the ground.

She quickly put her sword and wrist knife in, blocked it with bricks, and seeing that there was a gap in the tiles in the yard, she pulled up a handful of dogtail grass to leave a mark, and then straightened her clothes.

It's obvious that this dress is not good. Not only does it expose half of the arms, it also has an open neckline. When you bend over and lower your head, you can see the cleavage of the chest, and the belly button is exposed underneath.

Yuan Wuyou thought she had sacrificed enough, so she left the crotchless shirt she was wearing underneath. Although it covered her chest and navel, she would be quite obvious when standing with others, but this was her last bottom line.

In case of any situation, she would at least leave herself a piece of cloth.

After hiding her weapons and tidying up her clothes, Yuan Wuyou did not forget to untie her high ponytail tied with a red rope. She followed the other girls and draped her hair over her shoulders.

In the end, Yuan Wuyou only kept the eagle-patterned white jade king ring on the middle finger of his right hand for self-defense.

Fortunately, after Yuan Wuyou caught up with the group of girls dressed in Western costumes, he was not discovered.

We arrived at a brightly lit courtyard, where we heard singing and dancing, the sound of musical instruments, and exotic songs. It was definitely the Rang County Inn occupied by the "gods and Buddhas".

Just on the street near the entrance of the post station, someone suddenly heard ordering the "flower-picking girls" to stand at attention and line up in two rows.

Yuan Wuyou originally wanted to stand to the side, but when he looked up, he was startled by the strong, red-haired woman from the Western Regions standing in front of him!
My heart instantly rose to my throat.

But Yuan Wuyou's fear was not noticeable in the crowd, because she just took a step back, while the girls next to her screamed.

Seeing the scene getting chaotic, a Han man in a round-necked robe came out from among the Qiang soldiers at the door, holding a document and a list in his hand, looking like someone in charge.

He walked in front of the girls and said coldly, "What are you yelling about? You are so timid, how did you choose the flower-picking girl?"

As he spoke, he began to read out the names of the people on the list and asked them to answer.

Yuan Wuyou became nervous instantly. After all, her name was not on the list, and she didn't know the name of the girl she knocked unconscious.

When the first names were called out, someone responded. But when it came to "Dujuan", no one responded after calling out twice. The manager's tone became impatient and bad.

Yuan Wuyou felt that he should replace that person, so he quickly replied, "Yes."

At the same time, another girl behind him responded lazily: "It's my turn? I didn't hear it clearly just now."

Yuan Wuyou was caught off guard by this sudden change, and he instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

Yuan Wuyou subconsciously turned his head and saw the girl standing behind him. Although she was also wearing Western clothes and had disheveled hair, her fox eyes were half-open and half-closed, as if she was pretending to be asleep, and there was a playful smile at the corners of her mouth. She did not look like a shrewd fox, but more like a venomous snake about to spit out its tongue.

At just one glance, Yuan Wuyou felt that this sister was no ordinary person. Since she had the same name as her, she was afraid that she was deliberately making things difficult for her. She didn't know whether she was an enemy or a friend.

Seeing two people answering for each name, the manager walked towards the two people in surprise and glanced at them back and forth with his triangular eyes.

"Are both of you Dujuan? There is only one Dujuan on the roster, so who is the fake one?" As he said that, the manager ran straight towards Yuan Wuyou. The next moment he got in front of her, he reached out to grab her chest!

Yuan Wuyou subconsciously took a step back, raised his hands to cover his chest, and his eyes instantly became firm and murderous: "What are you doing?"

The manager hummed, "Each girl has a name written on her chest. You can tell by looking at it."

As he spoke, he raised his fox eyes and looked at Yuan Wuyou with a teasing smile, "You look so coquettish, you must have been touched by many men, right? How can you still be a virgin?"

"..."

Yuan Wuyou gritted his teeth in hatred but dared only glare at him.

The manager snorted, "Why are you glaring? Do you think I don't have time to satisfy you? Or will the gods and Buddhas come to test you?"

As he spoke, he reached out his hand to her again:
"Take your hands away, and don't wait for me to take off your clothes and see for yourself."

Yuan Wuyou was so angry that he wanted to kill someone. He pursed his lips stubbornly, his eyes were firm, and the hand hanging by his side had already clenched into a fist, rubbing the switch of the ring knife on his middle finger, ready to go!

At this moment, the girl Du Juan behind him suddenly walked to the front, pulled Yuan Wuyou's sleeve, protected her behind her, and explained to the manager:

"She is my sister. We got our names mixed up just now. Look, there should be someone named Du Ruo on the list. That's my sister's name."

Upon hearing this, the manager looked down at the roster suspiciously.

"Really? Then why did she agree when I called Du Juan just now?"

Sister Du Juan calmly pushed Yuan Wuyou back, stood where she had just stood, and said with an apologetic smile:

"My sister probably agreed on my behalf because she was afraid that I would be punished."

The manager said nothing more, "You two sisters, behave yourself and leave quickly."

After saying this, he waved his hand and asked the Qiang soldiers blocking the door to make way for them.

Then, they walked in like a dragon's tail, starting with the girl at the edge of the front row.

The group of girls in front walked into the gate of the inn, and Yuan Wuyou followed the girl named Dujuan.

She gently tugged at the shawl Du Juan was holding in her arms and whispered, "Thank you."

Du Juan turned around, blinked at her, and said with a smile, "You're welcome, my dear sister."

After saying that, he quickly turned back.

Yuan Wuyou looked around, and while no one was paying attention, he quietly took another step forward, got close to Du Juan's ear, and whispered to her:
"Why did you help me out just now? You knew I'm not your sister."

Du Juan turned her head slightly and responded in a low voice:

"Du Ruo is indeed my sister, but I just recognized her. I believe you won't hurt her, right?"

"Well, we changed clothes, why did you help me?"

"Because we have a common goal?"

"Ah?" Yuan Wuyou was stunned, but Du Juan suddenly turned around, narrowed her fox eyes, and smiled cunningly: "Don't doubt it, I also want to know what happened here. But..."
