The days are surprisingly long in summer, and although it is already unitary time, the roasting sun still hangs in the sky, and it is still an hour before it gets completely dark.

Wang San, the captain of the gatekeeper, squatted in the shade of the city gate boredly as usual.

Since the new emperor ascended the throne, many old people in the period of filial piety have been implicated, some have broken their families, and some have been assigned to the frontier.

Wang San and the secret guard intercepted Emperor Shun out of Beijing half a year ago, and it is said that after the other party sits on the throne, the first one should be the first to take him.

But Wang San's father, Wang Xishan, took refuge in Emperor Shun early, and has secretly done a lot of things for him over the years, the father and son have their own merits and demerits, Wang Xishan is still the squire of the criminal department, and Wang San is also the captain who guards the door.

In the end, it was Wang San's brother-in-law who lost the noble position of the prince's companion, but Emperor Shun did not mean to reuse him anymore.

Although Wang Xishan has merit, but his son's behavior has exhausted the love that the two of them have saved over the years, Wang Shilang really doesn't have the cheekiness to ask for a position for his son-in-law, and finally he can only find a clerical job in the criminal department.

Although his father didn't give himself a lot of face when he went home on weekdays, Wang San still didn't think so, if he hadn't taken refuge in the secret guard, the Wang family would have been raided and dug up a grave, where could there be such a scenery today?

Success or defeat is not only applicable to the royal family, but also to officialdom.

How many people waited to see the jokes of the Wang family before, but now they are not nodding and sending congratulatory gifts, Wang San is reluctant to get involved in officialdom, also because he can't stand their such coy attitude.

……

"Alas...... It's almost a step to become a rabbit, pig, you can leave, why do you want to disband the secret guard? ”

Wang San sighed, obviously regretting that he had not become a secret guard, and at this moment, two figures passed in front of him.

One of them was dressed normally, looking like a scholar, while the other was much more unbearable, like an unkempt beggar, and the most striking thing was the sword hanging from his waist.

Although the dynasty did not have a clear ban on private swords, except for the guards and officials in the capital, the rest of the people were not allowed to wear swords on the streets, otherwise they would be punished according to the conspiracy against each other.

The reason why Yan Rongrong can be so "unlawless" is that in addition to being the daughter of General Zhenyuan, the most important thing is that she has a military position, even if someone wants to make a fuss about it, there is no way to start.

"Stop!"

For a beggar who dared to bring weapons into Beijing, Wang San naturally would not be polite to him and directly stopped the other party.

The beggar stood still, and turned his head to look at the young lieutenant.

Wang San squatted at the gate of the city for an afternoon, but he found an opportunity to show his majesty, stood up and swaggered in front of the other party, and said in an official tone:

"Don't you know that the capital doesn't allow weapons to enter?"

Although Shen Qianqiu on the side was entering Beijing for the first time, he also knew the rules, so he hurriedly stepped forward, handed over a silver ticket with a large denomination in a place that outsiders could not see, and whispered:

"This military master, my brother doesn't understand the rules, please forgive me."

Wang San quietly put the silver ticket into his sleeve, with a smile on his eyebrows, he liked the behavior of the scholar in front of him.

"In that case, put down your swords and go into the city."

Shen Qianqiu looked at his companion on the side, his eyes were crazy, how could he expect that the other party was blind, he didn't pay attention to him at all, and raised his leg to go to the city.

Seeing this, the captain of the gate immediately darkened his face, stepped forward quickly, put his hand on the other party's shoulder, and said in a deep voice:

"Do you have donkey hair in your ears? Can't hear me......"

Wang San was halfway through speaking, when he suddenly stopped talking, only to see the "beggar" turn his head and stare at him coldly.

"Wang ...... Wang ......"

Wang San was shocked, obviously recognizing the other party.

"Be silent."

Wang Quanquan spoke coldly, and the other party nodded in a wooden voice.

The scholar on the side was just about to step forward to report to his house to relieve the siege, but he saw that the arrogant and domineering lieutenant was like a frosted eggplant, he took a few steps back, stopped speaking, and seemed that nothing had happened.

The scholar looked surprised, turned his head to look, but found that the guy who had been with him all the way left without looking back, and the sword on his waist had not been moved from beginning to end.

"It's weird." The scholar muttered and hurried to catch up with the other party.

……

"My lord, why don't you stop him?"

After the two left, a soldier stepped forward and asked.

"Stop it, you don't want to live?"

Wang San was deflated by the other party just now, and his anger had not been straightened out, so his attitude was naturally not much better at the moment.

The subordinate was also clever, and immediately came back to his senses and asked in a low voice:

"My lord, who was that just now?"

Wang San let out a long breath of turbid breath and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear:

"Lord Wang."

"Lord Wang?"

Although the soldiers were suspicious, they didn't dare to ask more, there was only one prince left in the entire dynasty now, and this should still contain Xichi in the northwest.

So where did this prince come from? Could it be the king of the county in some inconspicuous place?

Wang San looked at the direction in which Wang Quanquan was leaving, worried.

The last time the second prince went to Beijing, he made half of the Beijing division chickens fly and dogs jump, and just half a year after leaving the city, he brought the troops back again.

"It's going to change again!" After Wang San finished muttering, he was immediately stunned, "Hey, why should I say again?" ”

……

Wang Quanquan walked along the street, and the eldest prince Shen behind him was like a fart.

It is said that when he enters the city, he should go to his cousin, but he can't resist his curiosity, so he has to figure out what Wang Quanquan said to the captain just now, and after hesitating, Shen Qianqiu said:

"Dare to ask Wang Daxia, why was that captain so afraid of you just now?"

"You're mistaken." The royal authority returned faintly.

"Am I mistaken?" Shen Qianqiu was stunned when he heard this.

Thinking about it, how can a military attache of the imperial court be afraid of a ranger? I must have been dazzled.

Thinking of this, Shen Qianqiu had the idea of saying goodbye, but before he could speak, he saw the other party walking straight towards a fortune teller.

The fortune teller set up a stall on the corner of the street, wearing a purple gold robe is very eye-catching, more eye-catching than the robe is the cloth banner leaning on the wall on the side, with the four big characters of "opening the hexagram by order" written on it, and there is an inconspicuous seal below.

"Such a big breath?"

Shen Qianqiu couldn't help but be a little surprised.

When he walked in and took a closer look, he was even more staggered, and the inconspicuous seal on the banner clearly read "Emperor Shun's Private Seal".

"The feet of the Son of Heaven are so blatant, aren't you tired of being alive?"

If he is killed, he will not believe that a street fortune teller can have any friendship with today's son.

Just when Shen Qianqiu was in shock, the warlock noticed them, raised his head, and when his gaze swept over the man dressed as a beggar, his expression immediately became surprised.

"Ah Yue?"

The old Taoist priest subconsciously looked at the other party carefully, but then he was stunned, and then his face was full of shock, "Wang...... Rajah?! ”

The man in front of him was the man he had seen in Longqi Bay, but there was no simplicity in his eyes, replaced by coldness and gloom.

"You revealed my whereabouts to the king?"

The man's voice was hoarse.
