The Ten Princes' Mansion is the collective name of a prince's and princess's mansion, and the Yongning Princess's Mansion is in the southernmost part. The main gate rushed to the west, Chen Mo rode by, and rushed Huo Dong, who had been waiting here for a long time, with a slight forehead, and saw that he turned around and entered the gate, so he reined in the reins and slowed down.

At that time, it was already dark, and the streets were sparsely populated, but Zhu Yijun had never been out of the imperial city at this time, so he didn't notice Chen Mo's small movements.

He didn't pay attention, but it didn't mean that Zhao Zhenyu didn't see it either, Zongma approached Chen Mo, pursed his lips to attract Chen Mo's attention, and asked in a low voice: "That kid just now looked familiar, a bit like the hundred households you brought in through the relationship with your father?" ”

"Shhhh ”

Hearing Chen Mo's mysteriousness, Zhao Zhenyu became nervous: "Just one of us, is it enough?" Your Majesty is following, if something goes wrong, we both have to lose our heads. ”

Chen Mo was slightly stunned, and comforted Zhao Zhenyu with a smile: "Don't worry, something can't go wrong." But he thought in his heart: "It's bad, I'm angry for Caiyu, then Li Jiumei and Xing'er are strong in martial arts, if it is not good for Zhu Yijun, there is really nothing to do with them." Then he laughed at himself: "You have read too many kid novels, haven't you?" This is the Ming Dynasty, not the Manchu Dynasty, and there are countless anti-Qing people who are bent on killing the Tartar Emperor. However, he still made up his mind that Zhu Yijun must not be allowed to reveal his identity, just in case.

After the Zhengyang Gate, there were more people on the street. Zhu Yijun couldn't help but ask Chen Mo: "The imperial court stipulates that there is a night ban at three o'clock on the first shift, and this hour will not be counted." It should be about the same, why are there so many people on the street? ”

"We rarely go out, so you should ask him about this!" Chen Mo pointed at Zhao Zhenyu.

"Return to Your Majesty......"

"Back to what? Do you want to go back as soon as you come out? Chen Mo interrupted Zhao Zhenyu and said with a smile: "It's okay on the street at the moment, when you get to the ground later, don't show your mouth." ”

Zhao Zhenyu reacted and scratched his head in embarrassment. Hehe smiled and said, "I'm used to it...... That, that, yellow. Brother Huang," although he reacted, he still stumbled a few sentences, and then slipped down: "You don't come out often." In fact, this night ban is strict. The people below still have a way to deal with it. Needless to say, there is no need to say that the city of Sijiu is so big, you can't see it when you look down, maybe you will use it one day, and the night patrol will naturally not be offended by such a small thing......"

"What if ordinary people have no identity and no backing?" Zhu Yijun, who Zhao Zhenyu said earlier, can understand, but what he doubts is what he sees on the street, but not all people with status. Although there are not many short clothes, there are some.

"We know that." Chen Mo took over the conversation with a smile: "Most people don't have to go to the street after the night ban, and those who come out are nothing more than gamblers and prostitutes, and they are taking advantage of the loopholes of the imperial court." I forgot who said, there is a gambler in a certain county, often gambles at night, returns in the middle of the night, but has never been punished by the night patrol, the gamblers asked, and took out a package of herbs, a prescription, and said with a smile: "Five coppers bought, see the inspector came to offer, there is no one who does not pass." ’”

The Ming Dynasty's night ban stipulates that anyone who walks on the main street in the city without reason after "closing the door drum" and before "opening the door drum" is guilty of "committing the night" and will be flogged 20 times. However, if it is an official business such as delivering a letter to the government, or a private matter such as going to the doctor to buy medicine for a wedding, funeral, or illness, you can also get the permission of the night watchman to walk, but you are not allowed to leave the city.

The story Chen Mo said was seen in the novels of the Ming and Qing dynasties in later generations, Zhu Yijun first laughed when he heard it, scolded his slippery head, and then his face sank: "The court law, how can it be child's play?" It seems that after a long period of peace, people's hearts have slackened, and it is time to rectify it......"

Chen Mo was a little disapproving, secretly thinking that anyway, you are pretending to be Lao Tzu's entourage now, but you don't need to be polite to you, and said: "It's useless to rectify, let's not talk about the waste of manpower by careful screening, even if this trend is stopped, those who should lose things still lose things, and those who should commit thieves are still thieves." We also heard that some thefts were simply those night guards who guarded the night and forbade the law of night bans, but they made wedding dresses. ”

"Then according to your meaning, this night forbidden method is not only useless, but also wrong?" Zhu Yijun asked rhetorically, but his tone was not stern.

"We didn't say that, this matter should be worried about the emperor in the Forbidden City." Chen Mo flatly denied it, but the disapproving expression on his face completely betrayed his mind.

Zhu Yijun was waiting to say more, and suddenly saw Chen Mo raise his arm and say it, and hurriedly looked in the direction of his finger, and saw that the cloth of the Yuexian Tower under the lantern was floating in the wind a few feet away, and he was no longer entangled in the matter of the night ban, and he took a few steps around the horse's belly and turned over and jumped down, and when he was about to enter the door, he remembered the Chen Mo entourage he was playing at the moment, and he was busy holding his body again, turning around and waiting.

At this moment, there was a dense sound of horses' hooves at the mouth of the alley, seven or eight fast horses flew in, led by a woman in her forties, standing in front of the Yuexian Tower, dismounting together, six or seven men surrounded the woman and walked quickly into the Yuexian Tower.

Zhu Yijun was close to the door, and was pushed by a man, one staggered, if it wasn't for Zhao Zhenyu's quick support, he almost fell, but he didn't get angry, but looked at the back of the woman who entered the door in a daze.

"Damn, it's really rare for a woman to visit a green house." Chen Mo secretly settled in his heart, deliberately exaggeratedly said, walked quickly to Zhu Yijun's side, and asked with concern, "Are you okay?" Later, let's go in and ask who these are, rampage, lawless......"

"There's no need to ask," Zhu Yijun interrupted Chen Mo coldly: "We know that woman, it's just that she doesn't stay in the Ten Kings' Mansion well, why did she come to this place in the middle of the night?" He frowned: "Let's go, go in and take a look!" ”

Today is not the day when Li Jiumei sings, there are not many people in the hall, only two tables are sitting in the corner. However, the upstairs wings are full of silk and bamboo, mixed with the woman's coquettish laughter, which looks very lively. But there was no sign of the people who had just entered the door.

Chen Mo knew what to expect, and asked Zhu Yijun: "Who is that person?" ”

"The steward of Princess Yongning's mansion is Yongning's nurse and is responsible for taking care of her daily life...... A person who doesn't dare to speak loudly on weekdays, and is even more afraid of stepping on ants when walking, what's wrong today? ”

"Maybe there's something important!" Chen Mo was casually perfunctory, and walked to the back door: "It's weird, what about the shopkeeper like a cigarette?" Why is there no one to see? ”

Before the words landed, he vaguely heard the sound of quarrels behind him, squinted his eyes, and without waiting to speak, Zhu Yijun crossed him: "Go, take a look!" "Direct drive back door...... (To be continued......)
