In order not to startle the snake, Meng Yi divided all the Praetorian Guards into pieces and quietly infiltrated Pei County, but Chen Sheng was left by Meng Yi's side. Fusu naturally wouldn't leave Meng Yi, but Gu Haoran and Yang Duanhe sneaked away from other places. Rao is like this, Meng Yi still has ten Praetorian Guards by his side, these ten people are all warriors with super strength, and it is impossible for them to leave Fusu's side for half a step if they are ordered to protect Fusu's safety.

These Praetorian Guards all changed into servant hair clothes, and they all looked fierce, and from a distance, people felt that this was a group of evil servants, and ordinary people would never dare to take the initiative to provoke them.

And Fusu pretended to be a noble son, which turned out to be his true appearance, and he didn't need to dress up at all, and Meng Yi was also very suitable to pretend to be an old man. It's just that Chen Sheng, who is dressed as a scholar, is a little awkward. He had never tried such a role-play, so in his opinion, it was very difficult.

Thirteen horses galloped on the official road, and the cold wind blowing in front of him made the strong Chen Sheng shiver uncontrollably.

Surabaya Pavilion.

Pavilion Chief Liu Ji is seven in his Chinese New Year's Eve. He is bold and righteous, likes to drink, meets heroes and heroes, and is quite famous in the Surabaya Pavilion area. However, because of greed, Liu Ji is so poor that he is thirty-seven years old, and he hasn't even married his wife yet, and he is about to be a bachelor in this life. However, Liu Ji doesn't seem to be worried, hanging on the position of the head of the Surabaya Pavilion, he is idle all day long, and his parents and brothers don't like him very much.

However, Liu Ji is also loyal to his duties, and in the place he governs, there are very few incidents of stealing everyone, because the local hooligans and ruffians know that Liu Tingchang is the biggest hooligan in this area, and if he doesn't give him face, he will be guilty of himself.

After selling a few taels of sake and two side dishes with a few subordinates in the wine shop, Liu Ji patted the table and said to the bloated proprietress by the counter: "Boss, hang the account first, and the wine money will be paid back to you in two days." ”

"Great!" The proprietress squeezed out a sweet voice, twisted half of her fat buttocks, and walked to Liu Ji's side to clean up the mess on the table. The proprietress and Liu Ji are already very familiar with each other, and things like hanging accounts are not ten times a month for Liu Ji but eight times. Although are half-old, the proprietress is still very lethal to an old bachelor like Liu Ji. Liu Ji swallowed a mouthful of water "gurgling". Eyes off the boss lady, surrounded by her subordinates, walked out.

"Zhou Bo, Zhou Cao, you two go to the east to patrol it, Han Dong, you come with me." Liu Ji took a sip of wine, although he was already slightly drunk, he didn't forget his duty, and commanded a few pavilion guards around him to work. "Damn, there are young and strong people missing in the neighboring townships in the past few months, you can pay attention to me, and I should pay attention to the faces I found." Liu Ji seemed to be talking to himself, and it seemed to be reminding his subordinates.

"This is the Surabaya Pavilion, it is only more than ten miles from the Surabaya Pavilion to Pei County, and it doesn't take half an hour to get a fast horse." Meng Yi pointed to the map and said to Fusu, but it is not far from the Surabaya Pavilion, which is the place that Peixian County Cheng said, let's rest around here for a while, go there to survey after dark, and then go to the county office, what do you think, childe? ”

"Well, listen to Uncle Meng's orders." Fusu has adapted to his identity.

"There is a market in front of us, we have to walk quickly, it is very inconvenient to walk in the dark." Chen Sheng reminded the two.

This is a rather large bazaar, which is close to the mutual market of several townships, so this place has become a resting place to travel to and from Pei County, and there are many people coming and going. However, at this time, the harsh winter has not dissipated, and there are not many people traveling, so after the noon, the market is sparsely populated, and it looks quite depressed. Seeing a group of people rushing in on tall horses, the people in the market couldn't help but look at them.

Fu Su raised his eyebrows slightly, and said to the side: "Hu Huiyong, you go to find someone to ask, and see if there is any place to rest." ”

"Yes." A sturdy knight turned over and dismounted, and his movements were very free, fully demonstrating his superb riding skills. Chen Sheng knew that this person was the leader of Fusu's guards, but he was only twenty-five or sixteen years old, but he was strong in martial arts and won Fusu's trust.

However, letting a guard leader do such a small thing also made Chen Sheng feel that it was overkill.

After a while, Hu Huiyong came back and reported: "Childe, there are three large-scale inns in this bazaar, which can accommodate us and others, but two of them do not provide wine and food, so I think it is better to stay in the one that provides wine and food, and the price of wine and food is not expensive." ”

Chen Sheng was stunned. Hu Huiyong left for a very short time, but in such a short period of time, he carefully found out a lot of detailed information. As the head of the guard of the eldest prince of the empire, he was so careful, but it was really rare. But in a blink of an eye, Chen Sheng understood that perhaps because of this, this Hu Huiyong would be the leader of Fusu's guards.

"Very well, as you say." Fusu smiled indifferently and motioned for Hu Huiyong to lead the way. After a bumpy day and night, Fusu also felt tired and needed a good rest to recuperate.

"Who are you waiting for?" Suddenly, a very discordant voice came from the front. A middle-aged man in a cotton robe with an official knife straddling his waist was followed by several officials who looked like servants. The man's face was flushed, and he didn't know if it was because he was frozen like this by the cold wind, or because he drank too much wine.

This person is Liu Ji, the pavilion chief of the Surabaya Pavilion.

As soon as he came out of the wine shop, he heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, Liu Ji was very surprised, climbed up to the roof and looked, and saw more than a dozen strong men riding horses. His first thought was the attack of horse thieves.

But in the vicinity of this place, horse thieves have not yet become rampant. Liu Ji was bold, gathered all the soldiers of the Surabaya Pavilion, and rushed towards the gate of the market, he had to interrogate him, if these people were just ordinary businessmen, then they might be able to knock on a bamboo pole in exchange for a sum of wine money, if the dignitaries passed by, they could also get a tie to see if they could get a boost or two. has been the pavilion chief in the Surabaya Pavilion for many years, Liu Ji has already trained a pair of fiery eyes, and he can judge the identity of the other party from the other party's temperament at a glance.

Seeing more than a dozen people rushing towards him with murderous energy, Hu Huiyong's eyes immediately flashed with a wisp of murderous intent, and he said loudly: "Brothers, be on guard!" "He is the eldest son of the Great Qin Empire, and he may also be the future Great Qin Emperor, if he loses a hair, it is enough to punish his entire clan. Naturally, I don't dare to slack off.

Hearing the order, more than a dozen Praetorian Guards immediately turned over and dismounted, guarded the three of Fusu, Mengyi, and Chen Sheng, and looked at Liu Ji angrily. Underneath their wide leather robes were bulging, apparently hiding weapons. Seeing the murderous appearance of the other party, Liu Ji's heels suddenly softened, the back of his head felt cold, and he secretly said in his heart: "Could it be that the thieves are really here?" ”

Fusu also frowned. I don't know what happened.

But Meng Yi reprimanded the Praetorian Guards: "Don't be rude. He didn't want to stir up trouble in the local area, so he immediately said, "Stand down." Then beckoned to Liu Jiyi: "You come here." ”
