Two days later, Fang Er sat on the city wall of Guanghua Gate, constantly observing the crowds entering and exiting below.
He was waiting to hear the system's "ding" prompt.
After leaving the palace the day before yesterday, he hadn't returned to the estate and had been keeping watch here.
Coming from the north, there were only two city gates into Chang'an.
However, only one was for ordinary citizens to pass through, which was Guanghua Gate.
This was because the other gate, Xuanwu Gate, was adjacent to the imperial forbidden gardens.
But unseen by him, on the southern side of Chang'an, at Mingde Gate, a man dressed as a hunter openly entered the city.
This guy was none other than Motorola!
On his previous closely-cropped hair, he now wore a wig, or rather, it should be called real hair!
This fellow had killed a mountain bandit outside the city, and using a knife, had peeled off the bandit's scalp. After washing it with water, he had shaved his own head bald and directly attached the hair to his forehead.
If one didn't look closely, they wouldn't realize this guy was wearing someone else's hair!
The special forces, along with the defense army, had been keeping an eye on the "Yellow Haired Demon" and never expected this guy to sneak in using such a method.
Ding, mission issued: within 200 meters, help Cai'er of Baihua Pavilion win the title of Flower Queen!
Mission timer: three hours, countdown begins!
10799~~10798~~10797~
Motorola's expression remained unchanged. He carried two rabbits and walked ostentatiously down Zhuque Street, but his heart was filled with dread.
He was approaching the mission objective, yet he couldn't escape the mission's curse.
He turned into a small alley, glanced around to ensure no one was paying attention to him, then tossed away the shoulder pole from which the rabbits were hanging.
Next, he quickly shed his clothes and changed into a different outfit, transforming into the guise of a wandering swordsman.
One hand behind his back, the other holding a folding fan.
With a swish, the fan opened, fanning himself a few times in front of his chest, creating a cool breeze.
At this season, this item was merely a prop for showing off.
Following the mission's guidance, he arrived outside a brothel and looked up at the plaque.
Damn, he didn't recognize it!
However, the shops on either side also had four-character plaques, so it should be this one.
"Hey, kid! Is this Baihua Pavilion!"
Seeing his attire, the doorman at the entrance repeatedly nodded: "Yes, sir, indeed! It's not me bragging, but all the good girls in Chang'an are in our establishment. Please come in~"
With that, he led Motorola into Baihua Pavilion.
The madam immediately stepped forward, leaning close to Motorola, and gently brushed her overpowering perfume-laden handkerchief across his face: "Oh, a guest has arrived~"
As she spoke, she smilingly led him to a table.
"Sir, would you like to drink with courtesans, find a girl, or are you preparing to participate in tonight's Flower Queen competition?"
Motorola quickly nodded: "Flower Queen!"
The madam was overjoyed. The Flower Queen competition was the most profitable day of the year, and this person before her clearly didn't seem short of money. She leaned in and chuckled softly in Motorola's ear.
"Hehehehe~~ Sir, you have such discerning taste. Shall I find a few girls to accompany you for drinks?"
As she said this, she even playfully teased his earlobe with her tongue.
This sudden change made Motorola feel as if he had been electrocuted.
To hell with the Queen of the Nile, to hell with the Queen.
The scent of those women could suffocate him, even if they washed every day.
They were probably marinated to perfection~~
Unlike the lady before him, who, despite her age, had an aura and scent that made the great Tsar feel as if he were experiencing his first love.
It was intoxicating, truly intoxicating~~~
He closed his eyes and savored the feeling for a while. Noticing the madam still looking at him expectantly, he grinned and said,
"Good, good, good!"
The madam winked at him and then shouted upstairs: "Girls, come out to entertain our guest~~~"
"Coming~~~"
A group of charming girls, swaying their waists, descended from upstairs and stopped before Motorola, presenting themselves in their finest poses.
However, Motorola didn't seem impressed by any of them. His gaze remained fixed on the madam.
"Oh, Mama, this gentleman seems to have taken a liking to you!" a girl said with a smile to the madam.
Hearing this, the madam turned to look at Motorola, meeting his eyes, which were filled with infatuation.
This guy, has he really taken a liking to me?
As someone in the entertainment business, she had seen all sorts of customers. In the instant their eyes met, the madam knew that the girl was right.
This fellow might genuinely be infatuated with her!
This made her blush: "Sir, are you satisfied with these girls?"
"If they don't catch your eye, shall I bring some others?"
Motorola waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, no, I, shopkeeper Huang, find you pleasing to the eye~"
With that, he took out a lipstick from his pocket, opened it, walked over to the madam, and gently began to apply it to her lips.
His movements were so tender that the madam was almost captivated.
What should I do, should I give in?
But there's no precedent for a madam to entertain guests.
After the lipstick was applied, Motorola took out a small mirror and asked the madam to look at her lips.
With just one glance, the madam was mesmerized by her own lips. She had never realized her lips could look so beautiful.
Red like a hibiscus flower, making them exceptionally alluring and a bit enchanting, and also making her complexion appear exceptionally fair.
Under the lamplight, her lips even shimmered, like crystal, sparkling.
"Sir, my company for drinks is not cheap, you know~~" the madam said, her eyes fixated on the lipstick.
"Hehehe, this is a deposit. When shopkeeper Huang leaves, I'll give you a reward. Is that enough?" Motorola said, then tucked the lipstick into the madam's hand.
"Sir, you are generous! Since you favor me so much, I cannot disappoint you~"
The madam pulled Motorola to sit down, waved away the other girls, had the doorman bring wine and dishes, and sat with him in the main hall, eating and drinking. Motorola felt ecstatic. This was the first time he had felt so relaxed since entering the Great Tang territory.
As the minutes ticked by, and he started to feel anxious, the Flower Queen competition finally began.
Unlike the time Fang Er bought Xing'er, this was an internal competition for Baihua Pavilion. Crowds of young masters, along with wealthy merchants, packed Baihua Pavilion to the brim.
Motorola's attention was completely captivated by the madam, and he paid no mind to who was the Flower Queen.
He just wanted to complete the mission and then take the madam away, far from this terrifying place, the Great Tang.
The scene of countless people hunting him outside Yanmen Pass felt like it had happened yesterday, and the memory still made him tremble.
He really wondered if, upon capture, he would be subjected to dissection and research.
