7-54 Dark under the lamp

In the outer city of Beijing, in an alley between Xuanwumen and Zhengyangmen, the heroes are gathering in Da Wenxi's courtyard, Dai Wenpei's little girl is holding a baby in her arms and is clumsily coaxing, the heroes can't help laughing when they see her taking care of one or the other, and several older men want to take the child and hug them, but Dai Wenpei refuses: "This is the task given to me by the chief helmsman, how can I let you hug it." ”

The hero smiled: "It's hard to ask Yanzi Li Sanye to kidnap the boy ticket, wouldn't it be a pity for you to strangle to death, seeing that you haven't held a child like that, hurry up and give it to me." ”

"No, who said that I didn't hold a child, our family Wenlong was raised by me since I was a child." Dai Wenpei pouted, strangling the crying baby in his arms even tighter.

"It's strange, you were only four years old when Wenlong was born, and you still have to be hugged by adults, how can you hug your younger brother." Haohan is obviously a frequent visitor to Iron Gall Village, and is very familiar with the situation of the Dai family.

Everyone was talking and laughing, and suddenly the person in charge of monitoring at the door whispered: "All silence, the official and military search is coming." Everyone hurriedly closed their voices, several leaders rushed to the gate to look out, only to see a team of Qing soldiers is searching door to door, the ground security is next to the household registration book to cooperate, the people in the capital are registered, it was originally convenient to collect the poll tax, and now it is also very effective to investigate, if one or two people come to the house, it is good to say that it is relatives to visit the door, and dozens of heroes poured in at once, and they are all hideous with guys, it is too easy to be exposed, it seems that it is not suitable to stay here for a long time.

Liu Ziguang is in the main hall and the left and right protectors, several new hall masters to discuss the next work arrangement, heard the report and quickly made deployments, everyone evacuated from the back wall, can not be in direct contact with the officers and soldiers who searched, the heroes are all high and high martial arts masters, over the wall and over the ridge is a piece of cake, they left the courtyard with the fastest degree, according to the prior agreement to move to the densely populated Dashilar area, Liu Ziguang was the last to leave the courtyard, he was just about to leave, suddenly modern Wen Pei was still standing in place and hurriedly fiddling with the baby.

"Why don't you leave, what are you rubbing?" Liu Ziguang asked.

"He pooped, and I was covered in it...."Dai Wenpei said resignedly, the little baby cried because he was uncomfortable, and at the same time the door was kicked open: "Why don't you open the door!" Officers and soldiers check their accounts! ”

Da Wenxi, as the owner of the house, naturally couldn't leave, and when he saw the officers and soldiers breaking in, he hurriedly smiled and greeted him: "Official, relatives are here at home, and the children are crying loudly, I really didn't hear you knock on the door." ”

"Fart, you just deliberately don't open the door for Lao Tzu!" The general who took the lead glared at Da Wenxi fiercely, turned his head and beckoned his subordinates to enter the house to search, and then asked the ground guard: "How many people are in their family?" ”

"He is a lonely old man in this family, no relatives, no reason, no children and no daughters." The land security does not need to go through the household registration to know the details of Da Wenxi.

"And what do these two people do?" The general manager pointed at Liu Ziguang and Dai Wenpei and asked.

"Official, this is my cousin's two sons, who came from Wanping to visit relatives." Da Wenxi hurriedly said.

The general looked Liu Ziguang and Dai Wenpei up and down, these two people were dressed very ordinary, neither rich nor poor, they seemed to be countrymen from Wanping County, there was nothing suspicious, only one thing attracted the attention of the general adult, Dai Wenpei was very good at taking care of children, the baby was full of stool, and the untied swaddling clothes didn't know how to wrap it back, so he immediately concluded: This woman is definitely not the child's mother!

"You two are very suspicious, come back to the yamen with me." The general manager is full of mouths, and the two soldiers who come from behind will lock people with iron chains.

Dai Wenpei didn't care about the children, he looked at Liu Ziguang nervously, his hands were clasped, he should have grabbed a flying needle in his hand, and just waited for the chief helmsman to give an order, so that the officers and soldiers in front of him died.

"What are you talking about, sir, we are all great good citizens, what is suspicious, we are really wronged." Liu Ziguang spread his hands out, looking innocent, and it seemed that he didn't intend to kill.

"Hmph, on the ground in the capital, what can you hide from me? You say, "Where did this child come from?" The general yelled.

"This child was indeed born to the two of us, and he was brought into the city to see his cousin." Liu Ziguang pulled the sleeve of the general manager as he spoke, and motioned for him to come aside to speak.

"If you have something to say, these are all my brothers, and there is nothing to hide." The general arrogantly said that according to his years of experience as an errand boy, it has been seen that these two people are likely to go to the city to buy children.

During the Qing Dynasty, it was not illegal to buy and sell human beings, as long as the child's parents agreed to sell, it was a legal transaction, of course, it was still illegal to abduct young children, and judging by their reactions, the baby may have been bought from the abductor.

Liu Ziguang had already judged where the total suspicion was, and replied with the right medicine: "Don't hide it from the official, this child was bought by us, and his father and mother couldn't survive and had to sell the child to us. As he spoke, he took out a box of Double Happiness and began to smoke. He easily stuffed a Dadexing silver ticket with a denomination of not low denomination into the hand of the general.

"Boy, I see that you are still an understanding person, I will let you go today, and take your daughter-in-law back to Wanping quickly, you can't get out of the city if you are late, and the capital has not been peaceful recently." The general manager glanced at the silver ticket and was very satisfied with the numbers on it, so he stopped pursuing the abduction and trafficking of children, and shouted: "Brothers, withdraw." "I took the officers and soldiers and the local security guards to continue to search other houses.

"This place is not safe, and we have to find a more suitable place to stay." Liu Ziguang said. "Where is it safe?" Da Vinxi frowned.

"The most dangerous places are often the safest, and that's called dark under the lights." Liu Ziguang said confidently. The meat ticket baby is still crying, so noisy that everyone has to raise two octaves when he speaks, "Can't you coax the child well?" Liu Ziguang asked Dai Wenpei dissatisfied.

"He seems to be hungry." Dai Wenpei finally cleaned up the feces on the child's body, but the child was still crying, and it was estimated that it was really the cause of hunger.

"When you're hungry, you can breastfeed."

Liu Ziguang said unabashedly, there was no milk powder technology at that time, and they all relied on the nurse to feed on the spot, where did Dai Wenpei, a yellow flower girl, get the milk, and blushed at that time, the usually rude, willful and proud Iron Courage Zhuang Lady, the famous king of hidden weapons on the rivers and lakes, Thousand Hands Guanyin, has now recovered the original appearance of a seventeen-year-old girl, and lowered her head in shame, trying her best to shrink her perfect breasts lower, so as not to be seen by the lust of this hateful helmsman.

After coping with the search, Liu Ziguang took Dai Wenpei to a restaurant in the Dashilan business district, this is the contact location predetermined by the Heaven and Earth Society, the heroes have been scattered to the surrounding area, several Dharma protectors and hall masters are waiting for the arrival of the chief helmsman in the private room on the second floor of the restaurant, seeing Liu Ziguang Dai Wenpei like a family of three, the heroes can't help but quip: "Young master, young grandma is here." ”

The eldest lady of Tie Dan Zhuang is very famous in the rivers and lakes, the martial arts are high and beautiful, how many young young heroes love her and pursue her, but the thousand-armed Guanyin has a high vision, and she is determined not to marry a big hero, and she doesn't pay attention to some famous people in the rivers and lakes, but now she is following the helmsman with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes like a little daughter-in-law, how not to make everyone happy, everyone knows that eighty percent of the little girl is to find the big hero in her mind.

Seeing that the people and horses have arrived, Liu Ziguang began to plan a new foothold, Beijing City is a convex shape, the upper part is the inner city, the lower is the outer city, the outer city is mainly inhabited by ordinary Han people, supplemented by some shops, restaurants, brothels and other commercial places, which are always the focus of the search of officers and soldiers; And the inner city is inhabited by the family of the official eunuchs, the banner people, there is the imperial city in the inner city, there is also the palace city in the imperial city, that is, the Forbidden City, this is the core of the entire Manchu Empire, but also the most heavily guarded place, the Forbidden City and the imperial city, there are a large number of institutions serving the royal family, called the thirteen yamen: the ceremonial supervisor, the imperial supervisor, the imperial horse supervisor, the inner official supervisor, the Shangyi supervisor, the Shangshan supervisor, the Shangbao supervisor, the division of the superintendent, the Shang Fang Division, the salary division, the bell and drum division (ceremonial superintendent, ceremonial courtyard), the War Bureau, the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau, etc., The entire imperial city is full of the clothes of the three banners, the eunuchs and palace maids of the various eunuchs, and the corresponding officials, the fish and dragons are mixed, and the composition of the personnel is quite complicated, but these people are still a bit of an identity, so even the admirals of the nine gates dare not check at will.

"Let's go to the imperial city and live in the imperial city!" Liu Ziguang finally made a decision, and his courage made the heroes who have been in the rivers and lakes for a long time gasp, a big hero is a big hero, and his courage is outstanding!

The Manchu Qing Dynasty followed the imperial palace of the Ming Dynasty, in order to save money, did not make much renovation, the South Factory inherited the legacy of the East Factory has a detailed topographic map of the Beijing Imperial Palace, all the houses and secret passages are marked. There are even many eunuchs of the Northern Ming Dynasty who have been retained in it, and the imperial palace in Beijing is roughly similar to the imperial palace in Nanjing, only the size is different, so for Liu Ziguang, the imperial city is a place that is both familiar and unfamiliar.
