Bab 1115: Chapter 1116: Grabbing at Air

In the afternoon, a lady wearing a skirt mounted a horse and left the market, heading south.

And she was clutching a jade flute tightly in her hand.

...

That night, Jianxi stayed at the Junlai Inn.

As she usually stayed at the military camp and didn't interact much with civilians, she naturally lacked experience in finding lodgings, so she simply chose a place that seemed crowded and lively.

The first floor of the inn was for dining, and the second floor was for accommodations. The dining area was already packed with people, and the eager server, wanting to attract more customers and earn extra money, squeezed Jianxi at a table with three other women before asking her, "Lady, what would you like to eat? Would you like to stay at the inn as well? We just happen to have one last small room available, which would be perfect for a lone lady like yourself to stay in."

Jianxi nodded, "Okay, and I'll have a bowl of beef noodles, a large one. Take me to my room after I'm done eating."
