Boss Gu led Bai Jinyu and Qianxi to the deck, and after taking Bai Jinyu's luggage and sword, he led them to a small compartment.

This small compartment was originally reserved by Boss Gu for Bai Jinyu, but now that Qianxi is here, there is no extra wing room on the ship to share with him, so he can only make do with Bai Jinyu. Fortunately, although Qianxi is a man, he is still just a child, and there is no taboo for two people to squeeze together.

After a period of polite care, Boss Gu said goodbye, Bai Jinyu closed the door and turned around, Qianxi had already climbed onto the bed.

He kicked off his shoes with one foot and one with his right, yawned and said, "I'm tired of my sister, I ran down the mountain overnight yesterday in order to catch this boat, and I haven't closed my eyes properly until now, and I'm trapped to death——。 ”

"Take off your clothes and go back to sleep!" Bai Jinyu rushed forward, stripped off his dirty clothes twice, and said, "How can you escape, is there no one on duty at the mountain gate of Cuizhu?" ”

Qianxi said: "I slipped out when they changed shifts, in fact, they also found out, but I am a small child, and I actually fooled them after learning two wild cat meows!" ”

Bai Jinyu threw Qianxi's clothes aside in disgust, judging from this dress, he should have been quite embarrassed this night: "Where's your luggage?" You don't want to go down the mountain without anything, right? ”

Qianxi lay down and said: "No luggage, hmm, I brought this, where can I buy things with money, what luggage to bring!" As he spoke, he reached into his arms and pulled out a stack of papers from the placket of his coat.

Bai Jinyu stepped forward, took it and looked at it, and was stunned for a moment, only to see that this stack of paper was nothing else, it was all a silver ticket of one thousand taels of silver! Bai Jinyu counted miles, and there were as many as twenty.

Bai Jinyu looked at Qianxi with a dumbfounded gaze, extremely shocked, this nine-year-old child actually carried 20,000 taels of silver with him!

Bai Jinyu said: "Qianxi, you're too exaggerated!" How much money did you bring to study in Cuizhu? ”

Qianxi's eyes had already narrowed, and he said vaguely: "My father said, 'Money makes ghosts grind', and it is always better to bring more silver on your body, and now you use silver tickets, so you don't really need to carry such a heavy amount of silver."

Bai Jinyu pushed him back and forth, and said, "I probably guessed how you got on this boat!" ”

Qianxi smiled vaguely, and said without waiting for her to finish: "Yes, senior sister, you guessed well, I spent money!" I bribed the old bones who watched the docks yesterday, hehe! ”

Bai Jinyu was speechless, and just wanted to say something more to him, but found that he was already asleep. Bai Jinyu looked at the childishness on his face and smiled dumbly.

Bai Jinyu is a person who can accept the status quo and can adjust himself. So soon, she accepted the fact that Qianxi had followed her, and was determined to take this little junior brother to feel the prosperity of this capital land!

The next journey, because of Qianxi's company, became much more interesting, they fought poetry, played chess, and often listened to Boss Gu talk about the humanities of Chang'an. Soon, the cargo ship traveled all the way through the Jiangnan and through the Tongji Canal; After ten days, we finally arrived in Chang'an on a sunny morning.

Bai Jinyu and Boss Gu made an appointment on some matters of the return trip, and then took Qianxi to break up with Boss Gu. In view of the fact that Qianxi escaped without any use, after she found an inn as a place to stay, she led him to the famous West Market in Chang'an City to buy some clothes and supplies.

With the majestic city tower as the center, the houses of Chang'an City are dotted, with green tiles and cornices, and high-rise buildings. The wide street is sandwiched by locust trees, green shade, bustling with people, horse-drawn carriages and ox carts, and sometimes there will be foreigners with high noses and deep eyes leading camels through the street...... Qianxi finally saw the very different prosperous scenes of Chang'an and Yangzhou, and was amazed and enthusiastic all the way.

A horse-drawn carriage with golden vermilion paint drove away from the Imperial Palace, and as it reached the crowded Suzaku Street, it could not help but slow down.

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin, what does the Queen Mother mean today? He actually proposed that King Zheng, who supported the army and respected himself, enter Beijing to attend your wedding! Isn't this tantamount to luring a wolf into the house? Inside the car, a long-bearded old man who was over half a hundred years old was angry.

The object of his speech was a young man, dressed in a brocade robe with nine chapters of group patterns, elegant and square, and his appearance was extremely elegant, which was exactly what he said about His Royal Highness the King of Jin, Fengchen.

Facing the old man's righteous indignation, Feng Chen glanced at him lightly, and said with relief: "Lord Cao doesn't have to think too much about him, I will deal with this matter properly." ”

In this attitude that makes people feel like a spring breeze, this Lord Cao stopped for a moment, still clenched his fists and gurgled, and said: "The emperor has been in the palace for a year, and the government is still in the hands of the queen mother's relatives, and now he wants to recruit the prince into Beijing, the real wolf ambition is known to passers-by!" ”

Seeing that the persuasion was ineffective, Feng Chen stopped persuading, he knew that some things were facts, and it was not enough to be optimistic with a few words of relief.

Today's queen mother, surnamed Feng, is the queen of the first emperor's imperial seal, the first emperor died, and the new emperor honored her as the queen mother after he ascended the throne. However, this Empress Dowager Feng is not the current emperor Fenghua and his biological mother.

On the contrary, this Empress Dowager Feng is still a friend or foe to Feng Hua and Feng Chen.

It was precisely because of her instigation that eight years ago, the first emperor abolished Feng Hua, who had been the crown prince for ten years, and set up her son Yan Wang as the crown prince.

Who knows, this King Yan turned out to be a short-lived ghost, and after being the prince for five years, he contracted an illness and died. Empress Dowager Feng did not have a second heir, so her wishful thinking of her own son becoming emperor failed.

But she was not satisfied with the status quo, so she planned to support candidates among the many heirs of the previous emperor. Before she decided, she blew the wind on the ears of the first emperor and asked him to test which son was the most filial and talented, which led to the empty East Palace for many years; On the other hand, she took advantage of the faintness of the first emperor in his later years to vigorously promote her own relatives and relatives, and quickly expanded the power of her relatives, so that after the death of the first emperor, all the power of the court fell into the hands of the Feng family.

Even though the final result of the political struggle was that Feng Hua, the abolished prince, became the emperor, in fact, the court was still the Feng family's ministers, who had many friends and were intertwined, and they had reached the point of threatening the imperial power.

Now that Lord Cao is talking about this, everyone knows that Empress Dowager Feng wants to use the opportunity of Fengchen's wedding to summon King Zheng back to Beijing in an attempt to subvert Fenghua.

"Let me think deeply about this matter, the Great Levy Dynasty will not change the sky." Feng Chen said with relief.

He calmed his thoughts and turned to the side, when a gust of wind blew and lifted half of the curtains. He saw that there was a man on the street who was performing the acrobatics of stacking stools, and at this time the stools had been folded like an arhat, and the man had climbed two stories high!

The crowd of onlookers below clapped their hands and admired, and in this gray autumn, a white figure stood with a sword in his hand, tilting his head slightly, and looking at the excitement with a smile in the corner of his eyes.

Feng Chen inadvertently turned his head, and his heart was shocked, and he turned around and quickly lifted the curtain to look, but the white figure was missing from the crowd.

"Stop!" Feng Chen ordered outside the car.

The carriage and horses stopped in response, and before Xie Yao could put down the steps, Feng Chen had already snatched out the car and galloped into the crowded juggling. He pushed through the crowd and looked for it thoroughly, no matter left or right, he didn't see that figure again, and he couldn't help but stop, and he was in a trance.
