After the two of them had lunch, Guo Lao ordered someone to prepare two burdens, handed them to her, and said, "I know that you are leaving today, so I specially prepared some Yanzhou snacks." ”

Since it was food, Xie Yao happily took it.

Chu Zhao said, "Old man Lao, when I am free, I will definitely come back to visit you." ”

Guo Yujue waved his hand, a little disgusted, and said, "Chu boy, don't say such kind words, you are fine, and it is impossible for you to come to my place." ”

He sent the two to the arch, stopped, and said, "I'll send it here, the outer courtyard is crowded, I can't show up, I have ordered someone to prepare two fast horses, just outside the door, you take care all the way." ”

Xie Yao clasped his fists and saluted, and said solemnly, "Old gang leader, Xie Yao came to see you when he was free." ”

When Guo Yujue heard this, she immediately smiled, "Okay, girl, I'm waiting for you." ”

The two of them went out of the inn door, and on the way they met Guo Wanyi, who was waiting for him, greeted him a few words, said goodbye to Guo Wanyi, and then went out on the road, and after a while, he went out of the Yanzhou City Gate.

What Guo Lao Gang Leader personally ordered, it was really a thousand-mile good horse with wind on the soles of his feet, compared to the days before they rode, it didn't feel like a grade.

Chu Zhao and Xie Yao traveled early and stayed overnight, and finally arrived at the border on the outskirts of Beijing on the tenth day of the seventh month, near noon.

Approaching their destination, the two couldn't help but slow down their horses.

At the magnificent and solemn city gate, the people in the past were lining up to enter the city in an orderly manner, and the two turned over and dismounted and followed the queue.

Xie Yao couldn't help but be excited in his heart.

Capital...... The legendary capital!

After passing the city gate safely, Xie Yao followed him, and couldn't help but look left and right, only to see that there were people laughing and laughing on the high-rise buildings, someone on the side of the road was babbling and singing songs on the stage, there were a lot of food on the street that she couldn't name, and there was a strong plaque on the store.

It's hilarious.

The long street is endless.

Xie Yao asked as he walked, "My lord, where are we going now?" ”

"Criminal Department."

"Is the thing in the Punishment Department?"

Chu Zhao naturally didn't respond to her, and when the crowd was evacuated, he got on his horse, slowed down his pace, and drove the horse for about half an hour.

The two finally stopped at the door.

On the plaque is a big word "Criminal Department".

An officer at the door saw him, bowed down and took the horse, "Lord Chu is back." ”

Chu Zhao walked over without squinting.

"Lord Chu!"

When passing through the gate, Xie Yao couldn't help but be startled by the thick shouts of these people.

Xie Yao was a little embarrassed, with a smile, nodded and bent down at those people, and followed Chu Zhao all the way into the gate of the Criminal Department.

Today is the tenth day of the first lunar month, and there are still two days before King Liang's birthday.

Walking through the courtyard corridor, where there was no one around, she finally couldn't help but ask, "My lord, are they here too?" ”

"Not there."

"Huh? So where are they? ”

Chu Zhao stepped into a room door and said, "Nature is where they should be." ”

At this moment, the people in the house heard the movement, walked out of the inner room, saw Chu Zhao, and said respectfully, "Young Master, you are back." ”

Xie Yao's eyes suddenly fell on him, he was about his early twenties, seven feet long, dressed in purple, his long hair was tightly tied, his face was three points cold, he was not smiling, and he looked like a person in the official family.

Chu Zhao asked, "What accidents did you have along the way?"

"The journey went smoothly, the birth gang is in the criminal department, unless there is anyone who is not long-sighted and dares to come to the criminal department to steal."

Xie Yao's heart moved, it seems that this, nine times out of ten, Chu Zhao's personal guard, Wu Lu.

And the person in front of him is also Wu Lu.

Chu Zhao sighed and said, "This is Xie Yao, the catcher of the Cangxian County Government, you can arrange it." ”

"Yes."

Chu Zhao glanced back at Xie Yao, her eyes were looking around, she noticed Chu Zhao's gaze, and turned her face to smile at him.

She naturally heard Chu Zhao's words, and couldn't help but nod towards Wu Lu.

Thinking that she would probably never see Chu Zhao again after leaving this time, she said, "My lord, take care." ”

Wu Lu had already walked up to her and said, "Girl, come with me." ”

Xie Yao bowed slightly, followed Wu Lu out of the door, just a few steps away, only to see someone in the courtyard wearing a dark red suit, who was hurrying over, seeing him, hurriedly said, "Brother Wu, something happened!" ”

The man whispered a few words, only to see Wu Lu's face change slightly, and asked, "Dead?"

"I've experienced it, and I'm really out of gas."

"Let's go......" Wu Lu was just about to leave, remembering that there was Xie Yao beside him, and hurriedly instructed, "Girl, you wait here for a while, I'll go back." ”

Xie Yao nodded in response, "Brother Wu, you are busy first, I'm not in a hurry." ”

When Wu Lu heard this, he hurried away with the man.

Xie Yao sat down under the hallway.

She didn't dare to walk around, even if she was curious about this criminal department now, she also knew the right and wrong, don't act rashly, she was just a small catch, in case something went wrong, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to eat and walk around.

After sitting for a while, someone occasionally walked by, and when they saw Xie Yao, they couldn't help but cast a curious look.

She didn't know who these people were, so she could only smile and face them a little embarrassed......

She waited for a long time, Wu Lu never came back, Xie Yao was a little anxious, stood up, paced back and forth in place, looked up, her eyes lit up, and said happily, "My lord!" ”

Chu Zhaozheng stepped out, raised his eyes when he heard the sound, looked slightly surprised, and said, "Why haven't you left yet?"

Xie Yao walked two steps quickly to him and said, "That Brother Wu seems to have something, let me wait for him here." ”

Chu Zhao looked around for a while, and indeed didn't see Wu Lu's figure, thought for a moment, and said, "I'll take you over by the way." ”

"Thank you, sir."

Xie Yao happily followed him out of the gate of the Criminal Department, Xu is not far away, the two walked, walked for a while, Xie Yao couldn't help but say, "My lord......"

She wanted to speak and stopped, wanted to say but didn't want to say, didn't want to say and couldn't help but look at him.

Chu Zhao sighed, looked at her scratching her ears and cheeks, and said, "If you have something, just say it." ”

Xie Yao is the kind of person who can give birth to courage as long as someone opens his mouth, and when he hears the words, he hesitates, and he says, "My lord, the reward I said before ...... silver"

Feelings are asking for money.

Chu Zhao said, "It has already been sent, and your share should be in Liu Zhongkui." ”

Xie Yao's eyes lit up, and he said, "...... The reimbursement ...... before that"

Chu Zhao was silent for a moment and asked, "...... Are you short of money? ”

Xie Yao nodded abruptly.

He walked silently, touched his body, and then said helplessly, "I'll give it to you later." ”

Just give it!

Xie Yao was completely relaxed, and saw that the two had already walked to the center of the market, and the crowd was already lively.

Xie Yao saw that he was passing by a stall, and on a whim, he suddenly said, "Adult......"

"Huh?"

Xie Yao smiled and asked, "My lord, do you want to eat a bowl of wontons?" Please eat wontons, as if I thank the adults for saving their lives. ”

"......" Chu Zhao was silent for a while, and said suspiciously, "Your life is only worth a bowl of wontons?"

“…… Yes...... Of course not......"

"That bowl of ravioli sent me away?"

“…… Of course not! Xie Yao hurriedly said, "It's just that I'm a little shy right now, so I can only invite adults to eat this, and when I get the reward, I will definitely repay the adults." ”

"Then for now, I won't eat this wonton."

Don't eat it? Waiting for her to be rewarded greater?

Xie Yao had no choice but to say hello and keep up with him.
