A few people were in the dust, and many soldiers were rounded up on the road, and they originally planned to detour from the southeast border of Daxing Mansion, but they were shocked by the mighty search and arrest soldiers.

The state of this round-up is that those who know know that this is Xiao Qi, if they don't know, they still think that the soldiers of the imperial court are rounding up some important leaders who rebelled into the country.

This matter has already caused a stir in Daxing Mansion, and the notice posted by the imperial court did not draw the portrait of Xiao Qi. It's just that the notice says two old men with a little girl.

This is a bitter suffering for those who fled through Daxing Mansion, the scope is very wide, three old people, a girl, and some local officials have arrested a lot of people among these fleeing people for their so-called political achievements.

Xiao Qi and the others have now fled to Yang City in the middle of Daxing Mansion, which is the location of the Yang family.

The purpose of their coming here is not for this Yang family, but for the officials of the capital stationed here.

Xiao Qi and they didn't just run for their lives along the way, but they also knew from the officers and soldiers who were chasing them that the officials in the capital who gave the order lived in this Yangcheng.

Do they also want to know where the people of this capital are waiting for him? Or maybe these guys in the capital don't know where they're going.

With a clear direction, they also had a guiding light for their escape.

Because Yang Cheng is the place where the Yang family lives, the local governor here is a member of the Yang family.

Originally, Yangcheng was a small village, but a few decades ago, an ancestor of the Yang family, after becoming a businessman, returned to this Yangcheng, and with the help of his own power, this once small village was built into a transportation center in Daxingfu.

So this former Yangjia Village, because of this layer of relationship, has gradually developed into a town, although there are also outsiders living in the city, but the Yang family is still the leader in this city, and the Yang family's eyeliner is everywhere.

Because of the relationship between this Dao clan, as long as passers-by enter Yangcheng, they will enter the sight of the Yang family. It won't take long to get to the Yang family patriarch.

Although the three of them don't want to swagger into the market, the dress of the three people, well, except for Xiao Qi's dress is a bit normal, the other two people really can't say that they have anything to do with normal.

After all, a Taoist priest who was masked with a black cloth still held a canvas with the words "Acting for the Heavenly Way" written on it, while the other was a bald monk who had shaved off his eyebrows and beard.

They swaggered, and the monk dragged the Taoist priest behind him with a stick and entered Yangcheng.

This is also indispensable to the shouting of the little Taoist boy, "Count the heavens and the earth and the none, and walk all over the world." ”

"Fortune tellers, don't ask for money."

These three people looked like a pity, but it was a pity that the little Taoist priest met a non-human, but it was a pity that the old monk still had to carry an oil bottle, and there were also people, but it was a pity that the old Taoist priest was so old and had to come out to walk the rivers and lakes.

Anyway, the three of them walked on the road of this Yang City, causing a burst of turning back, the only thing that has not changed is that there is really no one who came to them, the so-called fortune telling.

"Steward, just now the people below came to tell you that there were three strangely dressed people who had entered our Yang City."

"What kind of strange people, are there still few strange people who come to our Yang City? Don't bother me with this kind of trivial matter, the adults from the court want to eat something I don't know, you people hurry up and find a way. ”

"But, steward, now that the situation is tense, we really can't get anything else."

The subordinate resignedly said, "Some time ago, the eldest prince gave us the surplus food we had accumulated and gave it to the people in the city. Now our Yang family has some..."

The steward sighed, "It's not that I don't understand what you said, but now it's not normal, those people in our Yangcheng are the foundation of our Yang family, as long as people are still there, our Yang family will not fall, the eldest young master is doing this very right, you subordinates can't talk about it." ”

"Yes."

"Now as long as no rebels enter the city, or the army of the enemy country enters our Yang City, everything will..."

It was said that he stopped here, and the rest of the words could only be understood by himself, and the subordinate nodded, knowing what the steward wanted to say, gave a salute and retreated.

The Yang family gathered together from top to bottom because of this kind of benevolence and righteousness, and there was no need to be in charge of things to make the words clear, and this subordinate knew the meaning of being in charge.

The meaning of the steward is very simple, that is, to serve these masters in the capital, and their Yang family can continue to be the same as before in Daxing Mansion.

So although Xiao Qi and the whereabouts of the others were reported upward, they didn't take it seriously.

Who would have thought that the three violations wanted by the imperial court not only did not escape, but came towards their base camp.

Xiao Qi was still a little trembling before entering the city, thinking that the method of nailing the palace and Mo Yan was nonsense.

Xiao Qi laughed at them for not understanding logic, and the two old guys said with a smile that Xiao Qi didn't understand people's hearts.

Seeing the people in this city, Xiao Qi was also relieved. It seems to be really like what Mo Yan and the two people of the nail palace said.

Although the people in the entire city looked at them with strange eyes, they did not think that soon after they entered the city, they would be chased and killed by the officials and soldiers in this town.

What is even more outrageous for the three of them is that they are resting in an inn in the city, because with the help of the Yang family, the people in Yang City are not as hard as the people in other cities.

Since the ancestors of that generation, Yang Jia has adhered to a tradition of "building high walls and accumulating grain", in addition to the taxes handed over to the imperial court this year, as well as the grain that was levied and transferred to the north at the beginning.

The Yang family's granary still has a lot of grain storage, so this inn is, of course, the Yang family's industry.

In this war-torn era, there is no big fish and meat, only a little coarse tea and light rice, and there is a place to live, which is already thankful.

Besides, the inn owned by the Yang family has a fair price, of course, the Yang family itself knows that it is okay to do business fairly, but it can't be a good person, otherwise, the Yang family would have been dragged to death because of the reputation of this good person.

For those fleeing people passing by, the Yang family also opened a shed to give porridge like an ordinary city, and there was no more relief or less help.

Xiao Qi and the three of them ordered a few servings of somen noodles and ate a few taels of steamed buns, which can be regarded as their own rush all the way to wash the dust.

Xiao Qi's embroidered leather coat, in the past more than a month of running, has become black, and the autumn is full of stains, and at this time it has been thrown by Xiao Qi in his baggage.

After eating and drinking, Xiao Qi washed his clothes, since he has resources, then he must make good use of them.

On the way, the nail palace praised Xiao Qi, which made Mo Yan, who knew Xiao Qi's character, proud.

To be an eldest lady in such a big family as the Zhang family, and to be able to take care of herself in this situation is really commendable.

Mo Yan once said to himself that there were still some disbeliefs in the nail palace, but now the nail palace is more and more fond of this little girl.

The two old men are not as particular as Xiao Qi, one doesn't care about his skin, and the other doesn't care about what he wears, according to Mo Yan's character, he doesn't have any clothes to wear, so he takes one directly from others.

"Xiao Qi, while Mo Yan's old guy is away, you might as well learn Buddhism with me?"

"Old bald donkey! I don't want to be a monk like you. ”

As if thinking of something wrong with his words, Xiao Qi changed his words again: "No, I don't want to be a nun." ”

"Little girl, you are wrong, the so-called Buddhism is not practiced by people in my Buddhist sect, and many pilgrims are also proficient in this way."

"So what? It has nothing to do with me. ”

"I see that you have a relationship with my Buddha, so I will teach you the Dharma, and if an ordinary person comes to me, I may not necessarily take care of him."

"What's the use of learning the Dharma, but it can't save the common people."

Nail Gong smiled dumbly, "Although the Dharma can't let you save the common people now, my Buddha is merciful and can save you." ”

"I don't need others to save me, let alone that kind of ethereal gods and Buddhas, if it's really like what you said, my Buddha is compassionate, why would they watch the world in chaos and ruin?"

"So don't lie to me, old bald donkey, it's impossible for me to learn Buddhism with you, if I have to learn it, I must go to learn the way to govern the country."

"You're so ambitious, you want to learn this?"

Xiao Qi's face turned red, he was too lazy to take care of the nail palace, and carefully took out a book from his baggage.

"Finally willing to take out this book today?"

This book in Xiao Qi's baggage, Nail Palace also saw it when he saw Xiao Qi packing up his baggage on the road. It's just that Xiao Qi didn't mean to take it out, and he didn't mean to throw it away.

Seeing that Xiao Qi didn't answer, the nail palace asked again, "Can you show this book to Lao Wei?" ”

"I didn't give this book, but someone else gave me a treasure. How can I show you casually, if you look at it and don't give it to me, what if you don't give it to me, I can't beat you. ”

"Then you can wait until Mo Yan's old puppet comes back. Grab it with me. ”

"That's not going to work either."

Of course, the nail palace didn't want to snatch the book in Xiao Qi's hand, but just now, he suddenly had an urge to read that book.

After talking to Xiao Qi, Nail Palace gradually calmed down his state of mind, and became more and more surprised by what happened just now.

There are not many things that can attract his attention to a monk like him, but when he saw the book in Xiao Qi's hand, he aroused the possessiveness of the nail palace.

Nail Palace said again in a very sincere voice: "Can you lend me this book?" ”
