Since the beginning of Taizu, the rooster crows, and the sun is cool, and the sun is not rising and the hundred officials.

At this moment, in the alley of the Beijing Division, although it is dark and deep, there are no cars and horses and idlers, but you can see that the officials of the court are equipped with tooth plates, and the stars are out, and the officials in the south of the city flock to the imperial city, and then walk into the Fengtian Gate from the Chang'an Gate. At dawn, the emperor will listen to the government at the imperial gate, worship the ministers, and manage the affairs of the world.

Seeing the Qinhua Bridge leaping over the water like a rainbow figure from a distance, Tong Fu unconsciously held the boat penny in his hand a little tighter. She was not mistaken, it was here in her dream that she saw the man fall into the water, and saw him struggling, and in despair he was not in a blush......

But why is it here? Who could it be? All she was looking forward to now was just a nightmare, and Jin Youzi really went to the palace last night......

Seeing the lanterns on the bridge flickering, reflecting the unicorn and tiger biao on the court clothes, the beam crown is towering and green and hanging, and the flower rhino gold and jade belt. Those figures, red Luo, Qingluo Yuan, and the sound of cloud shoes knocking on the stone slab with their boots......

The archers of the Terracotta Division on the side of the bridge stopped the passing pedestrians and boats from afar. Tong Fu looked at it like this, and his heart gradually settled down. This is not as lonely as in the dream, although it is not bustling at this time, but it is by no means a lonely and cold place. Even if something goes wrong, these many people will not be helpless. She began to feel that Xu was dizzy in the past few days, and there were some cups and bows......

The river breeze passed, the cold was awe-inspiring, she was originally only wearing a thin coat, but at this time the wind was blowing, and the frost and cold penetrated into the cracks of her bones, and she shivered unconsciously. She wrapped her garment tightly and took the ship's penny, and was about to fold it back.

Fang turned the boat around, and heard a muffled sound behind him, which seemed to be splashing in all directions. She turned her head sharply to see that the river below the bridge was covered by the shadows of the giant trees on the bank, and it was so dark that she could not see anything. At the railing of the bridge, it seems that someone leaned over the railing to look down, but soon left again.

Tong Fu couldn't stand any longer, and grabbed the archers who were blocking in front of him, "Official, someone fell into the water from the bridge!" Help! ”

The archer shook her off and pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword, "Who are you?" How can anyone fall into the water, it's just nonsense, don't be tired! ”

"Someone did fall into the water, just now!"

"Did you see it with your own eyes?" The archers were extremely impatient.

"I hear you! The sound of someone falling overboard. You must have heard it when you were near here......"

The archer had already drawn his saber in half, and was furious, "What nonsense! Do you know who is on the bridge? Those are all civil and military officials, important ministers of the court. Drowning? No matter how bad your hands and feet are, you can't turn over from there. If you dare to talk nonsense, I will take you down! ”

Tong Fu knew that there was no hope, turned around and left, ran ashore in a few steps, touched the corner of the river, and dived into the water. The cold under the water, the chill turned into thousands of fine blades, walking and cutting thorns on the skin. And it was pitch black and vast all around, as if trapped in a bottomless abyss, no matter where you went, you couldn't find a single light. Even though she had already wrapped the beads around her wrists, she could only barely reflect her close proximity under the water.

This is the ancient Yundu River, and the water is deep and full of rocks. I only heard a rough idea of the place where I had just fallen into the water, but I didn't know where. A few days ago, the heavy rain caused the water to flow rapidly, and the undercurrents were intricate, and I don't know where it will sweep people away.

I was in a hurry, and there seemed to be something in the wind, and I looked at it again, and what was hooked on the broken wood at the bottom of the river on the side was actually a jade leather belt. The jade leather belt is a product of the court, or the prince and the horse. Tong Xiaoxiao knew that it was not Jin Youzi Although he was relieved, he was still extremely uneasy, and he groped carefully on the side.

Qinhua Bridge is close to the north side of Pishifang, surrounded by Chuanban Lane, Ayazhu Lane, and Dading Lane, and the lantern market that is more lively than Huaishui in the first month is also here. The bottom of the water is full of debris from several workshops around it, and it is extremely difficult to see clearly.

Estimating that it was a little far away from the Qinhua Bridge, she reflexively looked back along the way she came, and suddenly felt that the hem of her clothes was hooked by something, and when she looked down, a broken lantern grid was embedded in the riverbed, and a bamboo pole stretched out to wrap the hem of her clothes. As soon as she reached out and tore it open, she saw a figure behind the shelf.

He didn't care about it at the moment, and swam directly through the spiky lampstand, and grabbed the man's back collar. The pearl on his wrist illuminates the complement behind him, and the scarlet robe is embroidered with Bai Ze. The same leather belt is general, and only a product or a prince can wear it. His body hung weakly in the water, and she didn't have time to think about it, so she grabbed the man from behind and dragged him out.

After dragging it a few times and not moving a bit, she estimated that the man's legs and feet were trapped between the lattice frame and the river stone, she let go of him, and felt the water in her boot to pry open the lattice frame next to his feet.

Suddenly, a light burst out in front of him, and the four sides were illuminated very clearly for a while. She was confused, the light seemed to come from the water around her neck, and before she had time to look down, she saw a figure swooping towards her. If she hadn't seen it and dodged quickly, she would have been knocked away by the man.

The man was extremely tall, and most of his face was covered, but when he saw her dodge him, he did not chase him, but turned around and hugged the man in Bai Ze Buzi, dragged him out of the mess of stone trellises, and dragged him straight to the water.

When the Tong Fu surfaced from the other side of the river, it was already slightly light outside, and there were many people on the shore of the bridge in the distance, and the archers were panicking to disperse the people around them. Officials passing by on the bridge also gathered, talking, sighing, and surprising. She couldn't hear what they were talking about, and she couldn't go up to see who it was, so she had to swim a little farther away to find a remote alley to get ashore.

After swimming underwater for a while, I felt that I was far enough away, and then I felt the river rocks on the shore and floated to the surface.

With her head out of the water, she froze completely when she saw what was happening in front of her.

In front of her was a five-que city tower, which she just recognized. The upper is the Wufeng Tower, and this gate is the noon gate.

In the middle of the noon gate is the royal road, the left and right two ques are for the general and the guard to hold the staff and flag school to enter and exit, and the left and right two doors are opened separately, called the left and right doors, and it is the door for the hundred officials to enter the court. Upstairs is set up towards the bell and drum, at this moment the bell and drum eunuch is beating the drum and ringing the bell, and the sound is shaking in all directions.

She slowly thought about Fang Cai's matter a few times, obviously saving people in Yundu under the Qinhua Bridge, no matter how much she swam, it was impossible to swim here...... How can there be a river in front of the gate at noon? In front of the gate of this palace, there is a river under the Jinshui Bridge......

My mind was in turmoil, and I heard footsteps not far behind me. The footsteps were roaring and stomping, and there seemed to be a lot of people. She turned her head to look, and barely recognized the general first, then the close officials, then the princes and horses, then the five mansions and six departments, and then the Ying Tianfu and miscellaneous officials in Beijing......

The civil officials enter from the left gate, and the military attache enters from the right gate, in the south of Jinshui Bridge, according to the order of rank.

Tong Fu vaguely seemed to see Jin Youzi's figure, and wanted to lean over to take a closer look, but a lieutenant passed by the Jinshui River, and just turned his face to look.

She felt a chill in her heart, such a big living person was lying in the Jinshui River, surrounded by civil and military officials who had entered the court, and she was afraid that she couldn't tell how she was not an assassin......
