Zhang Shouzhong was about to continue, but Sun Beiji in the sedan chair shook his head and signaled that he didn't have to speak.

The doubt in Zhang Shouzhong's eyes only flashed for a moment, and then he reacted, "Does the elder know everything?" ”

Sun Beiji's eyes were heavy, "Lord Hu is loyal and courageous, please go north, yes...... I am an example to the court. ”

“…… Elder Ge, this statement is just-"

"Neutral." Sun Beiji interrupted him again, this time, his hand stretched out the sedan chair and patted Zhang Shouzhong lightly on the shoulder, "Yishu suddenly went north to fight against Jin, we are reluctant, and it is normal for people to have feelings." But now that you have taken over his responsibility of teaching the prince, you must put more effort into the prince's schoolwork and not disappoint the prince's expectations. ”

"......" Zhang Shouzhong looked at Sun Beiji in the sedan chair in a daze, and only felt that Sun Gelao's hand on his shoulder seemed to weigh a thousand catties.

Hearing this, he understood that it was impossible for Sun Beiji in the sedan chair not to know the truth about Hu Yishu's debasement.

The eyes of the two met, and Zhang Shouzhong lowered his head with a complicated expression, "...... What the elder said was. Wansheng was also appointed only last night, and he couldn't sleep all night, and he ...... for a while I don't know what to do. ”

Sun Beiji's sedan curtain slowly lowered.

"The deceased is like a river, reluctant to give up day and night, we ...... Seize the day. ”

Zhang Shouzhong didn't follow anymore and slowly slowed down.

The two of them gradually staggered the distance on the long deserted street, but the man in the sedan chair and the hiker let out a sigh at the same time.

In just a few days, some people have left the country, some people have exposed their corpses in the wilderness, all of which are like small whirlpools on the lake, and they will fall silent the moment they appear.

Those walking on the shore can never see the treacherous clouds under the water, and the bustling city of Pyongkyo is still so bustling, and the street markets are still lively at noon and night. The people talked about the Jian'an Lake flower viewing party a few days later, and arranged the itinerary of those few nights of spring, as if everything was just like the sunset and moonrise in this Pingjing City, the curling cooking smoke, and the lights of thousands of homes, repeating forward day by day.

But some people understand that a new reshuffle may have begun.

……

On March 29, it was a fine day, and there was not a single cloud in the sky.

When he woke up in the morning, Bai Ling packed up his things, took the stamp of the palace approval, and ran out of the palace gate when the sky was still slightly bright.

On both sides of the street, in front of the shops that have not yet opened, hang sun-dried mother-in-law, a small blue flower that grows in clusters in the wild, and the color of the petals lingers for a long time after drying.

In the past, when Bai Ling and Bai Shijun went up the mountain to collect medicine, they heard their father say that this kind of mother-in-law is also called "Victory Star". It is said that when the Great Zhou Dynasty was founded, a general named Chang Ping was lured into a misty valley somewhere in a battle with the enemy, and when the army almost lost its direction and fell into a desperate situation, General Chang Ping relied on this flower like a star on the ground to successfully find a way out of the misty valley.

It was also around that time that people believed that the little blue flower would bring good fortune, so every year in March and April, people could be seen hanging their mother-in-law on the door of their houses everywhere in Heikyo. Later, because dried flowers can maintain their bright colors for a longer time, every household has a tradition of drying flowers in spring.

The fragrance of plants and trees wafted in the air, and Bai Ling was in a good mood, she changed into her regular clothes today, and walked briskly on the stone road of Pingjing as before.

Heaven and earth were filled with a blue morning light.

Bai Ling knew that he didn't need to come so early - the east city gate was not accessible to people when it was in the middle of the day, and he only took the night incense and swill wheels, and after the night came, the merchant travelers began to be inspected, and ordinary people could not go out of the city gate until the hour of the hour.

But this is a rare day off, she doesn't want to stay in the palace for a moment, she just wants to go out early. Even if Bai Yi came late, she could wait at the East City Gate slowly.

By this time the hour had passed, and the morning shops near the east gate had begun to open, and caravans from all over the world were gathering on both sides of the city gate, half waiting to go out, half waiting to come in.

Bai Ling was about to find a place to sit down, when he heard a familiar voice from behind him, "Bai Ling! ”

She turned around, and sure enough, she saw Bai Yi sitting not far away—his long figure was so thin, abrupt and conspicuous among the bearded strong men of several horse teams at the same table.

Bai Ling smiled and ran over quickly, Bai Yi turned his head and called Xiao Er to bring another bowl of tofu brain and fried cakes, and then gave up the position of the half-bench to Bai Ling.

Several strangers at the same table also moved their bowls, barely making room for one more person.

"You're so early."

"I'm guessing you'll come here before dawn," Bai Yi drank the last bit of soup in the bowl in two sips, "so I'll come over and wait and see." ”

Bai Ling glanced at him a little inexplicably, "...... Why do I have to come before dawn? ”

"It's so boring in the palace, being able to come out a little earlier is to take a little more vacation." Bai Yi looked at her seriously, "Don't you think?" ”

……

The sun gradually rose, and Bai Yi and Bai Ling also stood in the corresponding position in front of the city gate and lined up to leave the city.

In the past, inspections out of the city were always very fast - in the absence of wanted and pursuit orders issued within the city defense, the inspection out of the city was generally just a formality.

However, today, it seems that due to the night cherry blossom viewing party, there are three or four times more things to be inspected than in the past, and the speed of the procession has slowed down significantly. The two chatted and waited, but they didn't get bored. When it was about to be their turn, the brother and sister looked at the inspection process in front of them, and also took the initiative to open their baggage and hold it in their hands for the city gate officials to check.

In Bai Yi's baggage, in addition to the yellow and white things that were contained to commemorate the deceased, there was only an old cowhide water bladder, some dry food and a money bag.

This was something that could be checked at a glance, but for some reason, the gatekeeper only looked at it and frowned.

"What is this?" The clerk grabbed the yellow and white paper money of Bai Yi's baggage, and his voice suddenly became stern.

Bai Yi was puzzled, "This is ...... Paper money. ”

"Paper money? You say it's paper money? The clerk suddenly threw the paper money in his hand on Bai Yi's face, "This is obviously a paper talisman used for demon magic!" ”

As soon as these words came out, a vacuum area about one meter long suddenly appeared around Bai Ling and Bai Yi, and everyone instantly took a step to the side, avoiding the two brothers and sisters as if they were avoiding the plague.

"And this, what is this?" As he spoke, the official grabbed a sealed envelope from Bai Yi's baggage.

Seeing that the official stretched out his hand and tore open the envelope, shook off the letter and locked his eyebrows and began to read the contents of the letter, Bai Yi exclaimed, "You stop!" This is what I wrote to-"

The clerk quickly pulled the letter back, with a fierce look on his face, "Someone! Arrest them both! ”
