Chapter VIII

"Dead dog!" arrived at the same time as Jin Huang's roar, and a thick branch fell on the black dog with a whistling wind, and the black dog staggered behind Feng Ge.

The fragile dead branch slapped on the dirt and broke in response, and a sharp broken branch was bounced up by the huge recoil force and flew towards Feng Ge's eyes.

Feng Ge was startled and retreated, but she was tripped by the grass roots on the ground, seeing that her fate was to fall after being stabbed in the eye.

At the last moment, a white light flew from the side, knocking the broken branch away.

Immediately after, a gray shadow appeared silently beside Feng Ge like a ghost, supporting her.

"If there is a next time, I will see you as a danger and kill you. Guan Linsen looked at Jin Huang and said in a very calm tone that he wanted to kill her.

Jin Huang also knew that he had done something wrong, and lowered his head, ready to pick up the shuttle that flew out, but found that the black dog had already brought back the shuttle that had just shot the broken branch.

"Hmph......" Jin Huang turned his head proudly.

Why is this scene so familiar, Feng Ge rubbed his temples: "I think this dog is here to find you, it's better for you to keep it." ”

Guan Linsen disappeared again, Feng Ge was used to the basic attribute of the disappearance of the Secret Guard, and he was still talking and laughing with Jin Huang, and there was a black dog sitting upright.

"Are you going back to the palace now to talk about the tax reduction?" asked Jin Huang.

Feng Ge shook her head, she looked at the curling smoke rising from the roof of the villager's house: "For the emperor, what should be seen is the overall situation, the plan is the world, and when you set a rule, you must think about all the possible consequences...... Tax reduction, I'm afraid it's not so simple. ”

"Then let's go, I don't want to sleep in this place tonight. ”

***

"It's Feng County in front, ah, I'm going to eat something delicious!" Jin Huang rushed up the hill in one breath, "The distance between me and the braised steak is only one mountain...... Bastard!"

When Feng Ge panted and moved to the top of the mountain, he found that the city gate of Feng County was slowly closing, and the huge city gate had become only allowed for two people, only one person, and a small crack, which could be drilled seamlessly......

The city gate of Fengxian County has been tightly closed, and the time to open again is the fifth watch tomorrow.

Feng Ge looked at Jin Huang apologetically, if it weren't for her, Jin Huang would have been eating a second meal at this time.

"It's okay," Jin Huang waved his hand, "I'll find a way to get in when it's dark, this wall is not high, I can go in casually." ”

Feng Ge listened to this good idea, and shook his head vigorously and firmly, there is a rule in the law of Hengguo: after the city gate is closed, only those with special permission can enter the city, otherwise they will be treated as spies and killed.

During the travels, the prince is not allowed to reveal his identity to any outsiders except for life and death and national crises, and if he wants to reveal his identity in order to open the city gate, he will soon be recalled to the palace, and then ...... To usher in endless letters and accusations, at least the grounded to ponder, at the worst abolished the position of the prince.

"I told you in advance that I would never do such a thing as climbing over a wall! I would rather sleep in the field than break the law. Feng Ge is righteous and stern.

Jin Huang was unhappy, squatting on the ground, and the black dog came over silently, looking at each other.

"I want to eat pork ribs, with a little crispy bones, the meat is soft, half-dissolved in the juice, and I want to put taro to stew together, when I bite into the taro, it is all meaty, and then a bowl of white rice, pour the gravy, mix together......" Jin Huang flattened his mouth and looked at the city gate that had been closed tightly, and the lanterns had been lit up in the city for the first time.

"Wang!" the black dog barked firmly.

Feng Ge swallowed a mouthful of saliva silently and raised his voice: "What's so delicious about braised pork ribs, when I enter the city tomorrow, enter the best restaurant, and order the most expensive dishes, I'll please!"

As she spoke, her own stomach let out a "grunt" without arguing.

Jin Huang shook his head again and read: "What is the best food in the world, and the best hungry word." ”

In order to have a bite of braised pork ribs tonight, Jin Huang made various suggestions:

"Get you a mask?"

"My disguise technique is so good that I can't see it!"

"A little tiger hood for you?"

“……”

Feng Ge still shook his head firmly: "You can't know the law and break the law." ”

In the face of such a firm law-abiding good princess, Jin Huang is very irritable.

Flame!

Flames!

The soul of the soul is caused by the blazing flame of braised pork ribs, and there is nowhere to release!

"Hold back, hold back, hold back......" Jin Huang silently recited to himself three times, this is the gold lord in front of him, if he beats her, there will be no salary of five taels of silver a month.

That's five taels of silver, and a normal family of six can eat for three months.

Jin Huang took a deep breath and barely squeezed out a smile: "You wait for me." ”

A gust of wind blew past Feng Ge, and she watched Jin Huang rush into the forest in confusion, "Ah~ha!" With Jin Huang's majestic roar, the crown of a big tree shook violently, and then, slowly fell, with a loud bang, startling countless returning birds, a few little rabbits and little civet cats fled in panic, and stopped to look at her when passing by Feng Ge.

Somehow, Feng Ge felt that they were accusing themselves, and if they entered the city as Jin Huang said, they would not be frightened.

"Woohoo. Feng Ge let out a low snort beside her, full of warning, the small animals fled quickly, she turned her head to see that it was the black dog, baring its teeth, and chasing after the back "Wang" a few times.

Feng Ge was full of apologies for the backs of those who fled in a hurry, if he hadn't walked too slowly, the city gate would not have closed, and if he hadn't insisted on abiding by the law, the tree would not have fallen.

"All the mistakes are my fault, and when I return to the palace, I will issue an edict against myself. ”

Suddenly, Jin Huang's voice came from the forest: "Wow, the land father-in-law has appeared!"

Feng Ge hurriedly ran into the forest, and found Jin Huang holding a person's collar with both hands, pressing him tightly against the tree, the man was gray-faced, and there were a few dead leaves in his hair, struggling in vain: "Let go, let go of me." ”

"Make me braised pork ribs, and I'll let you go. ”

"Can't change it......" The man barely said four words, his neck was tightly choked, Jin Huang gritted his teeth: "I can't even change the braised pork ribs, it must be a monster, kill it." ”

Seeing that he was about to die, Feng Ge hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Jin Huang's arm: "He's a human, let him go quickly." ”

Jin Huang let go.

The man sat on the ground, clutching his neck and coughing.

Feng Ge squatted down and looked at him sympathetically: "Are you okay?"

The man instinctively shrank back, hung his head, shook his head and nodded, Jin Huang snorted coldly: "Even if it is a human being, it is not a serious person, which serious person will emerge from under the tree." ”

The tree, which was interrupted by Jin Huang, had a hollow in the heart, and there was a hole in the ground, half of which was covered by a tree, and half of which was covered by grass. During the lifetime of this tree, it is difficult to find this hole.

Feng Ge frowned: "Going over the wall and making holes, they are not good people!"

Jin Huang touched his nose and pretended not to hear.

"This hole leads to the city!!Which country are you a spy from?!" Feng Ge's voice became stern, "Tie him up and send him to the official." ”

The man was shocked when he heard this, and quickly raised his head: "No, no, no, I'm not a spy." ”

With the last bit of sunshine, Feng Ge saw his face clearly, a delicate and weak scholar, his face full of pity.

"Sure enough, you can't judge people by their appearance, who would have thought that under such a pitiful appearance, there would be evil intentions. Feng Ge shook his head, "This is a beautiful woman, why be a thief." ”

"I'm really not a thief...... the man looked at her helplessly, "I'm Lin Xiangyu, the county magistrate of this county, and this hole leads to the backyard of the county government, and I didn't dig this hole, after I took over, I had it when I lived in it." ”

Jin Huang looked at Feng Ge: "Do you know him?"

"I don't know, but the county order of Feng County is indeed called Lin Xiangyu, the four-year list of mellow virtue, originally in the Hanlin Academy, and later wanted to enter the Ministry of Engineering, but he failed the arithmetic exam three times, and was ridiculed by his colleagues in the Hanlin Academy, so he asked to be sent to be the county commander. ”

Lin Xiangyu's eyes widened: "How do you know?"

Feng Ge was quite puzzled: "This matter is very famous, the juniors of the major restaurants know that the dignitaries and nobles in the capital have been discussing for more than a month, and every school uses this example to educate children not to be biased." ”

"I can't live anymore. Lin Xiangyu buried his face in his knees.

"Do you two want to sit here and talk so happily, since there is a tunnel leading directly to the city, let's go, no one will see you from below. Jin Huang showed half of his body in the hole in the ground and waved to Feng Ge: "Let's go, let's go." ”

Feng Ge still had a serious face: "A gentleman must be cautious, and he can't do illegal things just because no one sees him." ”

Jin Huang crossed his arms and looked at her: "Are you a gentleman......? If you are recognized as a lady, don't force yourself to use the morality of a gentleman. ”

Feng Ge looked at her, and Jin Huang smiled very proudly: "Did I say something wrong, come and refute me~"

It was getting dark, and there was the howling of an unknown beast from afar, remembering what happened to the wolves last night, Feng Ge couldn't help but shudder, and the black dog silently walked towards the hole in the ground and jumped down......

"No, I can't go down, it's illegal. Feng Ge's heart was shaking, but she really couldn't break through her heart knot, court education has always been that you can't make a wrong step, and no one will dare to use sophistry to escape responsibility.

If it continues like this, the city gate is about to open, and Jin Huang suddenly asked: "I heard that when the queen led the troops today, she was under heavy siege, and the current saint compromised for this and ordered the army attacking Tuye City to retreat two miles?"

"That was a stopgap measure, and then Tuye Castle was not taken down. Hearing someone say his parents, Feng Ge was anxious to distinguish between his bare faces.

Jin Huang jumped out of the hole, grabbed Lin Xiangyu's collar, and at some point there was an extra golden dagger in his hand, which was across Lin Xiangyu's neck: "If you don't go, I'll kill him." ”

"What does this have to do with me! Is there any heavenly reason!" Lin Xiangyu howled.

This voice startled the birds to fly, and in the forest not far away, there seemed to be the sound of some animals moving, and a heavy snort, which sounded quite small.

"I'm here to protect your safety!" Feng Ge said quickly, and hurriedly jumped down the hole.

There were prepared torches at the entrance of the cave, and the fire was lit, Feng Ge saw that this cave was quite spacious, and it was obviously not a rush of roosters and dog thieves.

One end is outside the city, and the other end is in the backyard of the county government...... Feng Ge pondered the reason.

Jin Huang didn't understand that Lin Xiangyu, as a county magistrate, actually wanted to go through the tunnel: "You asked the guards to open the door, do they dare not open it?"

"Dare to ......" Lin Xiangyu's faint voice was sad.

Only then did Feng Ge know that the person in charge of guarding the city in Feng County actually obeyed the orders of his younger brother - King Law, and the reason was very simple, King Law's palace was in Feng County.

When the first son ascended the throne today, the queen mother was reluctant to let her younger son suffer, the side was too dangerous to go, and a few places in the middle were too poor to go, and finally picked and picked, and picked Hedong Road, which is not far from the capital, Feng County is not the largest city in Hedong Road, but it is a traffic artery, and it is very convenient to travel to and from the capital, so the palace of the king of law was finally built here.

The queen mother's heart, safety is of course the most important, so the people in Fengxian who are responsible for patrolling the city and keeping vigil are all sent by King Lu and directly obey him.

"If I want to enter the city after dark, I must have a warrant from the King of Law, and I didn't expect to be delayed on the road today. Lin Xiangyu sighed.

"Is it true that there won't be anyone in this city who is late to enter the city?" Jin Huang felt that there should be a lot of people who were late when they rushed into the city.

Lin Xiangyu silently turned his head to look at her, two lines of wide tears on his face: "Yes, there are still a lot of late people, either there is a good response, or they bring their own ladders, and there are martial arts masters who will fly in by themselves, and those who have no ability can only squat outside the city." ”

"I see," Feng Ge nodded, "Then since you took office, have there been many people who have been locked out?" If many people are affected by this, maybe it is good to repair some houses outside and let those who miss the time rest for the night. ”

Lin Xiangyu snorted: "In the past three years, I have been locked up outside the city, except for you, I am the only one." ”

"Hey, why!" Jin Huang was surprised.

"Because everyone who came here knew that Feng County was very well guarded, and after the city gate was closed, they couldn't walk casually on the street for an hour, so they all pinched a little. ”

Feng Ge began to worry: "You can't walk on the street, where are you staying tonight?" ”

Jin Huang smiled and said, "How can the county government not have a few empty houses?"

Of course, there are empty houses, but when the servant woman is cleaning up the guest room, her eyes are quite ambiguous, and Feng Ge even heard a woman talking outside the window:

"Our Lin County Order, which is usually inconspicuous, will bring back two at once. ”

"Yes, I haven't married a wife at such an old age, and I thought he had some special hobbies, but it doesn't seem to be. ”

"I heard that if you want to be promoted, you must have a family member, and he seems stable, he has been with us for three years, probably he wants to be promoted, right?"

"That is, to marry a wife and take a concubine once?"

"It's also very good, only do it once, save money, and the county order doesn't accept benefits from people on weekdays, so it is too difficult for him to rely on those Yulu to do it twice. ”

"Well, I can see it, the round-faced girl doesn't look like anything to the goose-faced girl, in fact, she is very respectful, but I'm afraid that the name has been decided, just right, steady and generous to be the main room, lively and clever to be the concubine room. ”
