() Beijing.

On the side of the lively street, there is a restaurant that only dignitaries can enter, and the highest private room faces the bustling scenery of the capital, and you can see the splendid imperial city.

On the seat, the bead curtain vaguely concealed a figure, but his dark face could be seen revealing a gloomy and gloomy anger.

I only heard a "cluck" sound, although the teacup was firmly resting on the desk, it was as if a sword had pierced somewhere, so that the few people kneeling below also trembled slightly, not daring to say anything.

Gu Zong glanced at them and sneered: "Let me guess, did you miss again this time?" ”

The kneeling people below finally considered and spoke: "Master, we have sent people to pursue them many times, and they have become more cunning and sharp, even if we disguise ourselves this time, we still can't escape their eyes." ”

"Oh, you mean, you're too shitty to kill two people, can you?" Gu Zong's eyes narrowed, and he couldn't hide the anger that was about to pour out and devour everything.

"No, it's not like that, master."

"Master, give us another chance, this time no matter what, we will never disappoint your expectations!"

The people below did not have the murderous aura that they had when they chased and killed Gu Ziyuan and Bai Rong, and in front of their masters, they were like fish on a chopping board and let others slaughter them, and they did not dare to resist.

Gu Zong looked at the ants and condescended: "How many times have I given you the opportunity?" If you can't catch someone, you dare to kill civilians indiscriminately, do you know that if the capital sends someone to investigate, it will implicate me! ”

The man in the azure robe opened his mouth to explain: "The little ones are definitely not intentional, it's just that they just think they are suspicious, and then I am afraid that they will kill them if they know too much, and they will only be disadvantageous if they live." ”

Although he couldn't wait to kill Gu Ziyuan, Gu Zong also wanted to keep a low profile and make sure not to let the suspicion fall on his head, but he didn't expect these subordinates to kill the ordinary people behind his back, and he had to send someone to deal with this kind of for them.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, Gu Zong slammed over the table, the tea spilled on the ground, and he reprimanded angrily: "How can you be reasonable, and dare to quibble with me?" ”

"The little ones don't dare." The subordinate hurriedly slammed his head on the ground.

"It seems that you think you are omnipotent, and you have been despising Gu Ziyuan and that woman from beginning to end, if you really have the ability, you will mention him next time

Your heads are here to die, or you won't want to come to see me alive! ”

Gu Zong flicked his sleeves and left angrily.

On the other side, upstairs in the restaurant.

In front of the open screen window, Song Yuyu stood with his hands in his hands, he looked at the busy scene on the street outside, and his eyes were contemplative.

At this time, there was three knocks on the door, Song Yuyu said and came in, and the masked subordinates pushed the door in.

The subordinate said respectfully: "Tell my lord, Gu Gongzi and Bai Maiden are currently wandering between some small counties, and they have encountered a lot of troubles on the road, except for the time we came forward to save them, all other troubles have been solved by themselves." ”

Song Yuyu nodded and muttered, "In this way, they can be regarded as having some experience." ”

was hunted down and killed along the way, although he sent someone to protect him secretly, but more often than not, he would let Gu Ziyuan and Bai Rong find a way to escape the danger by themselves, after all, excessive protection would only make them lax, which was not a good thing.

"However, time is running out, and it is time for them to go to Beijing." Song Yuyu closed the screen window, and the room instantly became dim, only his eyes were extremely clear.

In his opinion, now Gu Ziyuan and Bai Rong's last escape path is the capital.

The masked man hesitated a little: "My lord, are you sure you want to let them go to Beijing?" If the people over there take the opportunity to do it. ”

Song Yuyu shook his head and said incomprehensibly: "The most dangerous place is often the safest, but the capital is indeed in crisis, you can see the opportunity to make a move." ”

"Yes." The masked man answered, and quickly disappeared from the room.

Back in the woods.

After hearing Bai Rong's hopeful words, many of the people who were still depressed cheered up, and a few of them offered to follow them back to the small county town where they used to live.

They wanted to see if they could get their food back from those officials, after all, in order to live, food was the most important thing, not to mention that those things that were their own should be taken back.

Gu Ziyuan and Bai Rong also offered to help them get justice, and also let others no longer be maliciously exploited.

A few ordinary people led the way in front, followed by Gu Ziyuan and Bai Rong, who were chatting about the security issues here.

Bai Rong said in a low voice: "Ziyuan, have you noticed, our sentence seems to be more."

It's a small town, and the more ...... those officials are."

"Corrupt, greedy, selfish, evildoer, treating the people as inhuman, and even disregarding human life." Gu Ziyuan coldly told the viciousness of those officials, and he hated to eradicate them all and restore harmony and tranquility to the common people.

"Yes, it's hard to believe how many places in this world have such things happening, because they are too far away from the capital, so they can do so recklessly?" Bai Rong has seen too many situations in life along the way, and he is a little stunned.

Gu Ziyuan said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid this is not the worst, I'm afraid that the capital knows that these people and things are constantly happening, but they turn a blind eye, making these people feel like they are living in prison." ”

Yes, the most terrible thing is that the monarch at the top ignores this, which means that not only will the matter not be resolved, but more people will no longer trust the country, and a country that is not supported by the people will only perish.

Bai Rong's eyes showed sadness: "We just watch, but we can't do anything, even if we help one person, but there are more people suffering elsewhere, if there is a way to help all people, it would be great." ”

It's not just that I can't bear to see others suffer, but it's because I fear that if this continues, the country will only gradually fall apart, and the last thing I want is war.

"There must be a way." Gu Ziyuan looked at Bai Rong's eyes, his eyes were as bright as a mirror, "Rong'er, do you believe me?" ”

Bai Rong was about to speak, but was interrupted by the outside world.

"Look, those officers and soldiers are grabbing things again! Are we still going to go over? ”

With the uncle's reminder, the two found that they had arrived unconsciously, and they could see the gate of the small county town not far away, but at this time, there were many officers and soldiers guarding there, and the people who wanted to enter the city were full of embarrassment.

Others said: "What are you afraid of, we have nothing, are we still afraid of being robbed." ”

When I got closer, I saw that the officers and soldiers were forcing a family to hand over the money.

The family was also stubborn, and retorted unconvinced: "Why? It's our hard-earned money. ”

The officers and soldiers were enraged, and a group of people went up to punch and kick, and the father of the family could not beat them, so he could only protect his wife and children, but he still refused to let go and give money.
