After saying goodbye to Ouyang Xia, He Sun and the others rushed to the capital non-stop, but after half an hour, they had already rushed to the south of the city. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 The two of them tightened the reins, slowed down the horse's pace, jumped off the horse more than half a mile from the city gate, and led the horse to look at Kyoto. Both of them were in the capital for the first time, and the majestic and spectacular city walls in front of them made the two of them close their mouths in amazement, and the bustling crowd explained what it means to be a crowd. The two whispered their feelings as they curiously and nervously followed the flow of people through the interrogation, inspection, and finally entered the legendary capital.

He Xuxing was confused all the way, and he didn't know why Sun Jingjing insisted on taking him from Kaifeng to the capital thousands of miles away, and whenever he asked about it, Sun Jingjing just smiled and said nothing. At this time, when I arrived in the capital, I couldn't help it anymore, and I was thinking about how to speak in my heart. Sun Jingjing glanced at He Xuxing, who was following him, and saw that his appearance of wanting to speak and stopping was really unbearable, as if he had already anticipated his doubts, so he explained the reason to him softly.

It turned out that Miss Zhou moved to the capital with her parents a year ago, and Sun Jingjing took He Xuxing with him this time for this matter. It's just that Sun Jingjing knows in her heart that her younger brother has always been quite introverted, and if she finds out the reason, she is afraid that she will twist like a little woman, and the daylily will be cold by then. He Xuxing's heart was like a five-flavor cereals at this time, and he didn't know where his mood was drifting for a while, so he just stupidly followed behind Sun Jingjing, found an inn with a moderate price, and asked for two rooms to stay temporarily.

The winter days were extraordinarily stingy, and they disappeared in a flash, and when He Xuxing woke up from a nap in bed, the sky had already darkened. When I woke up, I was refreshed, and the only bad thing was that I was already hungry and my stomach was growling, so I went out and wanted to call Sun Jingjing to sacrifice the Five Organs Temple together, but I didn't know that she was not in the room, and after asking Xiao Er, I knew that she left the inn in a simple dress half an hour ago. He Xuxing had no choice but to come to the street alone to eat something simply, and seeing that there was nothing to do, he walked to measure the land of the capital with his footsteps.

He Xuxing walked aimlessly, and after half an hour, he realized that he had lost his way, and at this time the sky had completely darkened. He Xuxing smiled bitterly in his heart, but he simply didn't bother to pay attention to it, and continued to wander with his hands behind his back, but he didn't know that he came to the vicinity of the prince's mansion unintentionally.

The prince is the younger brother of the current emperor, and he is a kind and generous person, and he is deeply trusted by the emperor, and it is said that half of the defense of the capital is through his hands. The Prince's Mansion is also notoriously heavily guarded, and the people of the capital have privately rumored that the Prince's Mansion is as heavily guarded as the Forbidden City.

He Xuxing had not yet approached the mansion at this time, and he felt a chill coming from the front. He Xuxing squinted and looked forward, and a team of soldiers patrolled back and forth around the mansion to defend, which was very strict. The golden words "Prince's Mansion" in front of the gate shone brightly under the light of the lanterns, adding a sense of majesty and solemnity to the Prince's Palace.

Seeing that it was difficult to go straight, He Xuxing turned around and paced towards other places. At this moment, I faintly heard a burst of shouts and shouts coming from the prince's palace. Although He Xuxing had just arrived in the capital, the name of the Prince's Mansion had already been heard, and at this time, he heard the sound of shouting coming from the palace, and it seemed to be getting closer and closer, and he couldn't help but be curious, thinking that it could be that a bold thief dared to break into the Prince's Mansion at night. Moving at will, He Xuxing hurriedly hid in the corner of the wall next to him, and looked intently at the Prince's Mansion.

At this moment, a figure flew out of the Prince's Mansion, dressed in a night suit and a scarf. The man came from inside the house, and his feet were on top of the wall, not moving. The patrol soldiers outside the mansion reacted at this moment, and hurriedly surrounded the wall of the mansion where they were located, with three layers inside and three layers outside, without leakage, no need to think about it, the situation in the mansion is expected to be the same. At this moment, I don't know who shouted "release the arrow" in a hurry, only to see dozens of feathered arrows whistling towards the figure, the tip of the arrow was white and snowy, and the light of the lantern revealed a terrifying cold light in the dark night.

Without seeing the man's movements, a strip of white silk galloped away from his right hand, and the other end of the silk happened to be firmly wrapped around a tree more than ten feet away. The man didn't look at the feather arrows that were about to shoot at him, and with a soft roar, he dodged the rain of arrows at the last moment, and then his body actually went down the silk to the tree more than ten feet away, which was really shocking. The soldiers outside the palace were unexpected, half a beat slower, and when they came back to their senses, the man was already standing on the top of the tree, his body moving with the wind, as if he had no weight.

At this time, a person rushed out of the house, holding a sword in his hand, and gave a few low orders to the soldiers next to him, and immediately two squads of guards raised their swords and waved their swords towards the masked man wearing a veil. Seeing that the comer was menacing, knowing that the enemy was outnumbered, he was not reckless, and he fell to the ground lightly, dropping a sentence "If you want people not to know, unless you don't do it", he ran in the opposite direction to the prince's mansion, and the direction he ran to was exactly He Xuxing's hiding place.

He Xu Xingzheng pinched a handful of sweat for the man, and just when he was fascinated, he didn't expect that there were thousands of roads, but the man ran towards him. The man ran forward a distance of five or six zhang and suddenly found the trace of He Xuxing. The figure paused, his eyes stared at He Xuxing without blinking, his right hand raised slightly, or he had prepared a hidden weapon such as a sleeve arrow, and he only waited for He Xuxing to move a little and shoot an arrow.

He Xuxing couldn't advance or retreat at this time, and he didn't want to grudge with someone inexplicably, so he had to smile at the man to show that he had no malicious intentions, and then spread his hands and took a step back. When the man saw He Xuxing's actions, he probably guessed that he had come to this place unintentionally, so he ignored it and ran straight forward, disappearing into the night.

Seeing the masked man's eyes sweeping towards He Xuxing's hideout, someone immediately shouted, "The thief has an accomplice", so a team of men and horses chased in the direction of He Xuxing. He Xuxing unexpectedly just watched a play with a tail and no head, but he got into trouble, sighed secretly, and escaped while the night was heavy and foggy.

He Xuxing ran for a stick of incense in a panic, and when he saw that no one was chasing him, he stopped, panted lightly, and reached out to wipe the sweat on his forehead. It's just running around so wildly that I don't even know where I am, let alone go back to the inn. He Xuxing simply broke the jar and broke it, and regardless of the direction, he just walked towards the crowded place, comforting himself in his heart, he regarded it as admiring the night market in the capital.

The more He Xuxing walked forward, the more people around him, and later it was a sea of people, seeing this situation, He Xuxing also sighed that the prosperity of Beijing is really not comparable to other cities. It has been a while since he came out, and he was a little thirsty after running for the incense burn time just now, so He Xuxing went to a tavern that was still open, found a location near the window on the second floor, and called half a catty of Shaoxing "daughter red" and a stack of peanuts, while pouring himself a drink, while leisurely watching the traffic below. Helplessly, Xu Xing was really lacking in alcohol, and after a few taels of wine, he was already overwhelmed by alcohol, and ended up in a situation of pillow arm lying on the desk and drowsy.

I don't know how long it took, just when He Xu Xing was about to wake up, there was a faint cheer in his ears, he waved his hand impatiently, as if he wanted to expel the irritability in his ears, but the applause was a while, and finally woke him up. It is quite infuriating for a good dream to be broken, He Xuxing opened his eyes wide with a red face, and looked around, wanting to see what kind of thing or what kind of thing was divine to disturb his good deeds and break his good dreams.

Not far from him, a small circle of people was formed, and it was from there that the sound came. He Xuxing's eyes swept around, most of the drinkers in the tavern on the second floor were concentrated there, and only he was groggy and ordered. He Xu Xing walked over leisurely, and it took nearly half a pillar of incense to squeeze into the inner circle from the periphery, regardless of the fact that everyone scolded him for breaking the rules of the rivers and lakes that came first and came first. If it is put in normal times, He Xuxing can be regarded as gentle and elegant, because he is drunk today, the so-called wine strengthens the bear's courage, so he is extremely "bold" at this moment.

Perhaps because of the cold weather or the customs and folk feelings, there are many people who love wine and even drink in the north, and how bold the northerners are, and the wind of fighting wine was once very popular. In front of He Xuxing's eyes, it was a few people who were fighting wine, but unlike the usual wine fights, most of the usual wine fights were one-on-one, but here it was a pair of three, so everyone looked forward to watching and bursts of applause. Three similarly dressed drinkers sat on one side of the table, another across from them, and the four of them were lined with empty jars. He Xuxing counted, and the three of them drank six jars of spirits. He Xuxing was very shocked at this time, a jar of spirits was as much as three catties, and the man drank three jars, but his face did not change, he talked and laughed, and even his lower abdomen was mediocre. On the other hand, the three people opposite, although the amount of alcohol is also very terrifying, but everyone is shaky and drunk, and the reason why they have not fallen down is because they are afraid that they will lose face if they are outnumbered by many enemies, so they rely on a breath of self-reliance.

The man laughed out loud and said loudly, "Little Er, come to the third altar again!" The three people on the other side didn't expect this person to be unsatisfied, and they couldn't help but look at each other, shaking their heads and smiling bitterly, but when they are in the rivers and lakes, they pay attention to the fact that they would rather lose their lives than save face. However, after the man on the other side drank a jar of liquor after a moment of grunting, the three of them all staggered, and could only rely on each other to stand, apparently at the end of the crossbow. The man on the other side shouted loudly at this time, "Don't fall now, wait when!" The three of them seemed to have really reached the limit at this time, or they were frightened by the sound of the man's words, and when they heard this, all three of them fell, and after a while, they started snoring and talked nonsense.

At this moment, several people came out from behind the three people, arched their hands to the man, and said, "Today, it is the three heroes of Mount Tai who have been defeated", and then led the rest of the people to set up the three people on the ground, and helped the three out of the tavern. Seeing that the excitement was gone, everyone sighed and dispersed in twos and threes. After a while, only the victor of the wine fight and He Xuxing, who was drunk and faint, were left.

Seeing that there was still one person staying in place, the man frowned, but fortunately, this person still did not lose his elegant demeanor even after a large amount of strong wine, and politely invited He Xuxing to drink at the same table. He Xuxing was dazed at the moment, so he sat opposite the man without thinking. At first, the two chatted casually, intentionally or unintentionally, but unexpectedly, after a while, they felt that they hated each other. That person was originally from the capital, born in a scholarly family, needless to say, he was well-informed, and He Xuxing has experienced a lot of hardships since he was a child, and he can often hit the nail on the head of some things. The two of them reported their names, and He Xu Xingfang knew that the strange man sitting opposite was named Xia Hongyi, who was far away and was half a year older than himself.

"Why don't you chant and walk slowly, a good name for a virtuous brother", Xia Hongyi stroked his cup and chuckled. "You can't do without Hongyi, there is a long way to go, and Brother Xia's name is also excellent", He Xuxing responded with a smile. The two looked at each other and smiled, and they laughed together.

Xia Hongyi said with a smile, "Today is really a thousand cups of wine for a confidant!"

"No, no, no, the drinker hurts his body and hurts his body, and in the end, I'm afraid that there will be fewer confidants for every thousand glasses of wine", He Xuxing said vaguely.

Xia Hongyi wanted to refute, but saw that He Xuxing was already lying on the table, and there was still saliva on the corner of his mouth. Xia Hongyi smiled helplessly, but he didn't expect to meet such a wonderful person who was unsuspecting of people this time. Seeing that the tavern was about to close, Xia Hongyi smiled bitterly, and after paying for the wine, he supported He Xuxing with his right hand, and did not forget to pick up the wine jar with half a jar of wine left with his left hand. Out of the door of the tavern, I suddenly remembered He Xuxing's sentence "There are few confidants in a thousand cups of wine", my heart moved slightly, put down the wine jar, and took He Xuxing to the nearest inn and settled in.

He Xu fell asleep in the evening of the next day, and only felt a slight pain in his head and temples. When I got up, I saw a letter in a conspicuous place on the table in the room, with the words "Brother Xu Xingxian's brother" written in the middle of the envelope, and the payment was "Brother Hongyi". After He Xuxing opened the envelope and read it, he learned that Xia Hongyi left at noon, and informed He Xuxing in the letter that he had paid for accommodation and change of clothes, and left an address, inviting He Xuxing to be a guest in his house three days later.

Out of the inn, He Xuxing thought about rushing back to the inn as soon as possible, so as not to worry Sun Jingjing about himself. Although the direction is unknown, according to his memory, it seems that the prince's mansion is the only way back to the inn. So, He Xuxing walked towards the Prince's Mansion, but this time he had an extra heart, and it was needless to say that he was cautious along the way.

Half an hour later, He Xuxing came to the vicinity of the prince's mansion. At this time, the sky was completely dark, and there was a heavy snow of goose feathers. He Xuxing tightened his collar, clasped his hands around his chest, and looked around, thinking that he must not appear a group of soldiers, if he was arrested, it would be very bad. At this moment, there was a sound of fighting from the direction of the Prince's Mansion, and it was actually rushing here, He Xuxing had goosebumps all over his body after hearing this, and secretly scolded "crow's mouth" in his heart.

He Xuxing hurriedly looked around, and immediately settled down, knowing that he was not coming at him. This time, having learned the lesson of yesterday, he no longer hid in a dark corner, but ran quickly to the houses on the side of the road, and took advantage of the protrusions or grooves in the walls to reach the roof. With the advantage of high terrain and wide vision, He Xuxing immediately identified the direction of the sound and quietly moved away from the roof. When He Xuxing ran closer and looked at what was going on, he was taken aback, and there was even a hint of confusion.
