In the dusk, on the official road, the shadows of two horses and a big wolf stretched for a long time......

At the end of the day, the more I walked, the closer and closer I got to the clouds, and the pedestrians in twos and threes made the man-made scenes on the roadside begin to exceed the natural scenery. Coo and a dozen horses calmly, a trot, it can be said that the spring breeze is proud, the horse's hooves are light, and you can see all the flowers in the suburbs in one day.

In the blink of an eye, I came to the first level outside the moat in the clouds.

In the end, it is the capital of the No. 1 empire in the world, and it is already sunset, and there are still many people waiting in line to enter the clouds of the capital, and they are all very well-behaved.

At this time, Shaoyi and Gugu followed the team to the foot of the city wall, and looked up, the city gate tower was majestic and tall, showing the grandeur of a great country.

The west gate of the Great Zhou Dynasty - Jinguang Gate, the city tower on it is undoubtedly the most majestic city tower among the nine gates in the clouds. Because the west is the direction of the end of the country, therefore, the west gate tower in the clouds is so tall, its implicit meaning is self-evident. Although the Western Regions are powerful and the end kingdom is not the most powerful opponent of the Great Zhou, it is the most capable of tossing and a strong opponent that makes the Great Zhou overwhelmed.

In that year, when the ancestor Jizi accepted and the end of the kingdom surrendered, he deliberately increased the expansion of Jinguangmen several times to highlight the identity of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Nowadays, most of the people who come and go to Ximen are merchants on the Silk Road, and few people with weapons appear in the ranks of the common people.

Ever since he appeared in the ranks, he has become the troublemaker with two swords on his back and easy to cause trouble as people line up to enter the city. In front of everyone's eyes, it was finally time for him to be examined, and he thought that he would pass the test easily, but he didn't want to be drunk by the guards at the door and taken to a small grass hut on the side.

"Where did you come from, what did you do in the clouds?" asked a middle-aged man in the grass hut.

"The West, the fourth aunt, is here to take the academy exam. Shaoyi answered the guard's cross-examination in the same way he had discussed with Goo before.

The middle-aged man carefully looked at the baby in front of him a few times: he was dressed in a rustic atmosphere, and his face was as ruddy as an apple by the wind all year round.

When he learned that the baby in front of him came from an inconspicuous village in the southwest, the man said with disdain: "Don't you know that if you carry a 'controlled knife' when you enter the city, you need to register?"

"Uh-" One less pause.

Suddenly, the soldier who took Shaoyi into the grass hut crawled in the ear of the middle-aged man, muttered a few words, the man's face changed suddenly, his voice was strong and his tone was tough, and he said: "Just after the assassination incident of Princess Mo, you will come to the west with a sword, could it be that you are a fine work sent by Momo, and you came to answer it? ! Come on, take it down, take it with me. ”

Gugu, who had already passed the inspection, was leading Dangkang and Heiyu, two tall horses, anxiously waiting for Shaoyi under the city gate. Half of the ring passed, and I finally saw him come out, but he was escorted by two soldiers......

When he looked at it, he knew that the situation was not good, so he didn't have time to think about it and quickly got on his horse, so he hurried into the city without looking back.

......

Gugu was alone holding Dangkang and Heiyu, walking aimlessly on the lively street, it was past midnight, the street was still brightly lit, pedestrians were endless, and the stalls and vendors shouted one after another.

Walking to an arch bridge, the road to the bridge was suddenly blocked by a sedan chair that stopped for some reason in front of me.

Goo was about to change course, but he saw a tall horse standing in the way. The man sitting on the big horse wore a green gauze horned turban, a single green jacket, and a silver belt with ox tendon and turtle back around his waist, and was eight feet long...... Well, Gu Gu thought, this is clearly a military attache with status and status! It is in a confrontation with the palanquin opposite. Obviously, the two do not give in.

The river breeze lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, and I saw a civil official in his early forties sitting in the sedan chair, who was beautiful and radiant......

It's strange, cooing and thinking, when the civil and military streets meet, they don't give in, and the servants on both sides rely on their own masters, and they are scolding each other, attracting more and more onlookers.

Come to think of it, under the governance of King Jiahai of the Great Zhou, the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty are very fierce and elegant. Goo Quan thought it was fun and turned away.

In the breeze, the guise of the oncoming tea shop is swaying with the wind, and when you look at it, there are several strong and powerful characters written on the guise - "A Cave Ghost Tea Workshop".

With such a name, I don't think I know how many cowards have been scared away. When Goo Gu got closer, the room was full, so lively, the shouts of the guys, and the chatter and laughter of the tea guests were endless. Gu Gu shook his head and couldn't help but say to himself: "In this way, you can also taste the taste of tea?!"

Next to the tea shop is a wine shop, and when you walk over it, you can see it again.

There are not many customers in the wine shop, and the bartender is idle, and if it were not for the wine cover hanging outside the store, few people would have recognized this wine shop.

"The tea shop is full of people, the wine shop is deserted, and the pursuit of the people in this city is incomprehensible. While leading the horse, Gu Gu told Bai You in the small wooden box around his waist about his little emotion of entering the city as a country girl.

As he walked, Goo noticed a thin man wearing a cloak quietly following him.

After a few more streets, he turned around suddenly, and the person who was following behind him was unexpected, and took a look. The young man was not surprised, he went straight and took another step closer, Gugu hurriedly took a few steps back, and his hand instinctively stretched out to his waist, but the young man whispered to Gugu: "Don't turn around again, keep going forward, and turn right at the mouth of the second alley in front." "Beneath this cloak was the voice of a teenager.

Goo wanted to see what this guy was going to do, so he did as he said and went into the second alley.

The noise dissipated instantly, and the faint aroma of wine filled the air, and the drunken cooing.

The other party said softly: "It's the second princess who sent me to find you, don't be afraid, come! ”

The boy led Gugu into a very deserted liquor store.

The other party lifted his cloak, and Gugu realized that this young man was none other than Cui Tianqi's brother Cui Tianqi. He stepped up the stairs of the attic of the restaurant, and when he saw that Goo was still standing where he was, he turned back and said, "Girl, please come with me upstairs to talk." ”

The boy seems to be familiar with this liquor store, and he is as casual as if he is back in his own home.

"I've been looking for you all afternoon, and you should have gone into the city with the princess yesterday...... Why are you alone, that little brother?" Cui Tianqi didn't say half a word of nonsense.

"I already know what happened to you on Hexi Road, Jiahai has too many eyeliners, and the second princess can't come out to see each other for the time being. In order to dispel Gugu's doubts, Cui Tianqi added.

"When I entered the city, Shaoyi was taken away by the soldiers guarding the city, I think it may be because of the weapons he carries, a teenager, there is no resume record in Da Zhou, and the crime should not be serious...... It's just that I don't know how to save him yet......" Before Gu Gu finished speaking, Cui Tianqi interjected: "This is easy to do, it's not difficult to find someone to talk to over there in the Inner Nine Office." ”

Over the years, Cui Tianqi has not wasted a day of his time, the long-term ambush of concealing his identity and painstaking efforts, although he only became a small captain in the forbidden army, but the room for activity is up to the head of the Internal Affairs Office, down to the deacon of the Nine Gates, he can talk to him.

"Girl, stay in this attic tonight, and someone will bring tea and food. Remember, except for the guy running the hall below and me, no one can respond, and it's best not to open the window,......" From the time he lifted his cloak until now, Cui Tianqi always had a serious face, as if something big was about to happen. According to Cui Tianscale, he always has a serious face, and he almost never smiles.

"Everybody calls me Goo...... Please ask Brother Cui for one less thing. ”
