It's not a long walk from the tavern in the lower part of the city where Qiu Chen is located to the Night bookstore in the night raid, and it's only about an hour's walk. Although there were a lot of ill-intentioned eyes along the way, no one rushed up to be a wave of green forest heroes in a daze. The men of the Imperial Capital Garrison were almost all out tonight, and the streets were full of patrolling soldiers, and no one wanted to ram their guns when the soldiers were worried that they could not find a typical example of killing chickens and monkeys

The journey was uneventful, and the little emperor was worthy of being a person who could manipulate the emperor's tools, and his physical strength was good. There was no situation where the little emperor that Qiu Chen was worried about felt too hot and was unwilling to put on his cloak. Although the transmission of information is not well developed, the dragon pattern on his clothes can definitely make Brand and Leonay see the problem. However, to Qiuchen's surprise, the Night Bookstore was closed

"Isn't your friend there?" asked the little emperor curiously, standing by the window and looking through the glass into the bookstore, "how neat it is...... By the way, I heard from General Estes that you have friends in the Imperial Capital Garrison, and they are also members of the Imperial Capital Garrison?"

"Uh..."Qiuchen put one hand on the door, the living perception opened, penetrated through the door panel and infiltrated the inside of the bookstore, after searching the entire bookstore, he found that Tazmi and they were not staying in the underground stronghold to hide, but they were really not in the bookstore "They may have something to do, I guess they will be back in a while"

"Guards, it's really hard for them" Hearing Qiu Chen's response, the little emperor thought that Qiu Chen had acquiesced to his question, and said to himself, "After the empire defeats the rebels, I must reward them well, and with these citizens who stick to their posts, my empire will prosper."

"They really care about this country," Qiuchen shrugged. But it's not the empire that cares, "Wait a while, if they don't come back for a while, I'll send Your Majesty back to the palace"

Brand probably wouldn't have led Tazmi and his party to attack the city gates tonight. The number of revolutionary troops outside the city was more than enough to besiege the city, but the siege was insufficient. Even if the city gates were opened, it was estimated that the number of revolutionary troops alone would soon be divided and surrounded by the imperial garrison in different areas. The large area of the Imperial Capital is a disadvantage for the defenders, but it is not a good place for the besieging side. It is a bit whimsical that the vanguard alone wants to take the palace directly

Where have they gone......

"No problem, I have time" The little emperor looked around for a while, then stretched out his hand and pointed to a nearby place where the crowd gathered, "Let's go there and wait, it just so happens that I also want to taste the food outside the palace, the minister has been telling me that the people in the emperor's capital eat better than me, and finally come out when the minister is busy, how can I let go of this opportunity"

"If you really want to think like that......" Qiuchen almost laughed, Earnest would never have thought that his words would have such an effect, "Then so be it"

The place where the little emperor pointed was at the end of the alley where the bookstore was located, a roadside restaurant that was still open. Unlike Uptown, the curfew in Downtown is largely a nominal phenomenon here, and the soldiers can't stop them from coming out at night to relax after a tiring day, and the management officials in the area are happy to see the increase in taxes from the shops. Even if the revolutionary army camp outside the city is on fire, the entertainment in the city should continue to entertain, and the business of Flower Street is still booming, especially after there is a talking point, all kinds of gossip has popped up in a noisy place like a tavern, and if an officer of the city defense army appears in the tavern, I am afraid that I will be surprised to find that I have so many relatives when I have it

The appearance of the little emperor did not attract extra attention here, everyone's thoughts were on the revolutionary army outside, except that the boss took a few more looks and then told Qiuchen that he would not provide drinks for such a little ghost to waste, there was no surprise, the only thing that didn't feel good was the little emperor himself. Just now he asked for a food with a nice name, and after tasting it......

Even if Qiu Chen couldn't see his face, he could imagine his green face at the moment through the way his whole body trembled

Anyway, you won't get food poisoning, right?

"Hey, buddy, I see you're very fresh, where are you from" Qiuchen just found a place to sit down, two guys who looked very familiar came over with beers, looking at the coarse cloth clothes on their bodies, it should be a nearby resident "It's not appropriate to bring this kind of imp to this place at night"

One of them glanced at the little emperor, "Also, don't wear a cloak at night, the group of people in the recent garrison will arrest anyone wearing a cloak as long as they see it, and they are all frightened by the night attack, really, how can such a dare fight with the revolutionary army outside" As he spoke, one of them reached out to grab the little emperor's cloak

"Hey, he's very scared of life, forget it" Qiu Chen hurriedly grabbed the man's hand, "He doesn't know how to speak, don't worry about it, I think how could the Imperial Capital Garrison do it to a child, and it is impossible to suspect that the killer is coming here."

"You're definitely not a native of the imperial capital," the other looked at Qiuchen with drunkenness, "The imperial capital garrison is much better now, but before that Captain Oujia died, we were really worried that when he went to the flower street that day and suddenly ran out of money, he would arrest us and ask his family for bail, and the dead oil merchant, what kind of oil did he buy, it was a bottle of water sprinkled with a layer of oil and took it out to buy." I have to say that the night raid did a good thing in this regard."

The little emperor suddenly shook his whole body, causing the two of them to look at him again

"Hmm......" the little emperor muttered meaninglessly, and before they met, both of them looked at him, and he lowered his head again, "I...... I want another ......."

"It's strange, you can still drink beer when the things come out here, isn't it a waste to feed the horses?" One of them joked and laughed, "Boss, are you going to put gaskuma in the bread, or are you just throwing moon candy into it?" ”

"Nonsense!" The fat boss roared, "If I could have a few bottles of Skuma, I would have sold them to the people in Uptown and ran away for money!" I can't even make money for a bottle of Scuma this month! ”

"Just kidding, boss, don't be angry," the rest of the restaurant laughed. Able to handle this similar poison. How can you still open a half-dead roadside restaurant in Downtown?

"Alas, I really don't know when the revolutionary army outside will leave" Qiuchen also picked up his wine glass and took a symbolic sip, "I can't help it if I want to get out of the city now, I knew that I wouldn't come to the imperial capital during this time, it's really unlucky" Qiuchen was a little worried about Iyeas and Shayou, I don't know if they have come back now, what if they encounter the besieging army on the way. The Revolutionary Army and the Order Army are okay to say, but he doesn't know what the Southwest Foreign Nationalities Army looks like

"I hope that the revolutionary army can enter the imperial capital, and maybe there will be no need to live the present hard life in the new country" A man who was obviously drunk shouted, "No matter what, it is better than now, more than half of a month's salary must be handed over to the tax collector, and there are wars everywhere, whether it is north or west, can't you live in peace for a few days?"

"Be quiet! Idiot, what should I do if the people in the garrison hear it" The people on the side knocked the back of the drunken head, but it seemed to hit the little emperor, making his whole body shake again, and he raised his head and looked at the group of people in front of him incredulously, he couldn't figure out why these people would happily discuss the possibility of the overthrow of the empire and praise the heinous night attack

"Besides, if you are lazy and lazy, you will be poor wherever you are," the person who was in front of Qiuchen just now turned around and mocked, "But what you said is right, if everyone has money to live, who would want to join the revolutionary army." Alas~ If I had known that this was the case in the imperial capital, I wouldn't have come here, and I thought that this place would be better than the border, and I wouldn't be bullied by the people who guarded the mansion too much."

"Maybe it will be better in a few days, and the revolutionary army will be better than the emperor no matter what" The drunk man poured the last sip of beer, slapped the broken money on the table and got up and left

His eyes followed the people who walked out to move outside, and Qiu Chen happened to see Lubbck's figure walking towards the bookstore at the corner of the street. Seeing this, Qiuchen also put down some broken money and touched the arm of the little emperor sitting beside him, "Let's go, my friend is back...... Uh, you're alright......"

"Ah, I...... I'm okay" The little emperor gasped as if he was startled, sighed, and he staggered to his feet, "We... Let's go."
