As soon as Fang Qianlong and Du Ling'er entered the capital, Zhao Yizhi, who was far away in the imperial study of the palace, opened his eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It's here." ”

Zhao Yizhi has not gone to find Fang Qianlong's whereabouts in the past few days, he has made a lot of effort, his body is mysterious, the four Chen Congwei can't capture him alive in the capital, and when he goes outside the capital, without his own divine sense to snoop, Chen Congwei is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and he can't help him. So Zhao Yizhi has been waiting quietly, waiting for Fang Qianlong to come back by himself.

"They are in this direction ... Are you going to Zhou's house? "The Zhou Mansion is located in a remote area, with a single courtyard, and there are very few households around, Fang Qianlong also saw this, and just returned to the capital, he went to the Zhou Mansion.

"Zhou Ziru has left Beijing and gone to Chuxiang in Anhui City, don't they know about such a big thing?" Zhao Yizhi frowned, full of doubts: "Qingtian, the sea." The two of you go to Zhou's mansion, find him, and ask him not to hurt Fang Long, just capture him alive. ”

The two of them glanced at each other, and immediately understood who Zhao Yizhi was talking about, and the two took the order to leave.

Fang Qianlong and Du Ling'er walked halfway and suddenly asked, "Ling'er, do you have any money with you?" ”

"What do you want money for? Didn't someone always say that he was the son of a wealthy merchant in Wucheng before, and he had money? "Du Linger and Fang Qianlong don't have much intersection, they can only say some past events to evoke Fang Qianlong's memories. But she has been dancing with knives and guns since she was a child, so naturally she will not know how to be soft and coquettish like ordinary girls, but will only tease and squeeze her.

"Forget it, it's fine." Fang Qianlong didn't want to mention the past, so he turned around and left.

"Hey, hey, you're really uninteresting, here you go!" Du Ling'er caught up with Fang Qianlong and stuffed two silver ingots into Fang Qianlong's hands, about ten taels.

Du Linger pouted and said: "That's all I have on me, you save some flowers, if you don't have any money, you have to go and ask me for food to feed me!" ”

Fang Qianlong was about to speak, when two breaths shot out from the capital, heading straight for his direction. Fang Qianlong hurriedly pulled Du Ling'er into his arms and hid in the alley.

"Hey! You—" Du Ling'er was startled, and she almost wanted to do it. But as soon as she shrank into Fang Qianlong's arms, Du Ling'er immediately became honest and motionless, leaving only a heart in her chest that was pounding.

Fang Qianlong narrowed his eyes and recognized those two breaths, one of them was one of Chen Congwei who participated in the round-up of him a few days ago. The direction they went in was exactly Fang Qianlong's purpose, the Zhou Mansion.

"What a quick move." Fang Qianlong looked at the two people flying in the air and sighed.

Du Linger snuggled in Fang Qianlong's arms: "You also know that you are fast..."

"Let's get out of here and go to the benefactor's house." Fang Qianlong came out of the small alley, Du Linger left Fang Qianlong's arms with some reluctance, and quickly calmed down.

"Benefactor, what benefactor?" Du Linger asked.

Fang Qianlong pulled Du Ling'er and walked towards the couple's house: "If it wasn't for that couple a few days ago, I'm afraid I would have been arrested in prison a long time ago." ”

Du Ling'er followed Fang Qianlong and turned left and right, and turned to the front of the house, where the man was sawing wood with a wooden saw in the courtyard. There was a window next to it that had been opened, and the door was empty, and it seemed that the man was about to break the door.

"Big brother, how about the door?" Fang Qianlong hesitated for a moment and shouted.

The man raised his head, first stunned, and then stood up hesitantly: "You... Brother, are you alright? ”

"I'm fine, if it weren't for my eldest brother and sister-in-law that day, I..."

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, come, sit in the house. Hehe, this group of soldiers is to arrest people all day long. Look at you that night, if it weren't for my daughter-in-law's sharp ears, you would have frozen to death here, how can you be a bad person? The man dropped the saw, stood up enthusiastically and greeted him.

"it, boil some water, big brother is back fine. Yo, who is this? The man noticed Du Ling'er following behind Fang Qianlong, rubbing his hands and not knowing what to call him.

"I'm his daughter-in-law." Du Linger didn't have the twisting and pinching of ordinary girls, and said generously.

"Oh, yes, come, sit in the house." The man wanted to welcome the two into the house, and the man's daughter-in-law took two bowls and poured two bowls of hot water, walked out of the house, and handed them water.

"Brother, this daughter-in-law is so handsome!" The woman smiled and praised.

Du Ling'er's pretty face flushed slightly, she didn't know what to say this time, so she took the water and hid behind Fang Qianlong.

"Big brother, we won't go in." Fang Qianlong didn't care about Du Ling'er claiming to be his daughter-in-law, such a relationship as a cover, and he could indeed avoid a lot of trouble along the way, "I have caused you a lot of trouble before." You take this silver, big brother. ”

Fang Qianlong took out Du Ling'er's two ingots of silver from his arms, thought about it for a while, quietly put back one ingot, and put the other ingot of silver into the man's hand: "The grace of saving his life cannot be repaid, if he is a prosperous man, he will definitely repay him again!" ”

"Yo! This... That's a lot of silver! Brother, you here, we haven't done anything, we don't dare to accept this. The man's eyes widened when he saw the silver, and he waved his hand again and again in refusal.

"Big brother, don't you think that our Qianlong's life is not worth this ingot of silver? If it's not enough, I can offer it again in the future, and if I don't think it's worth it, the younger brother will leave. Fang Qianlong knew that the two of them had a good temperament, and directly said heavy words.

The man scratched his head, then hesitantly took the silver and handed it to his daughter-in-law, who did not weigh it, but stuffed the silver directly into her sleeve, trying her best to keep her face and not let herself be rude.

"Brother, I don't know who you are, but you must be a good person, you see that our brother is fateful, don't leave today, just have a light meal at my house with your daughter-in-law!" Of course, if you think my brother's family is poor, it doesn't matter if you leave now, just act as if my brother didn't say this. The man was not as honest as he looked, and quickly learned Fang Qianlong's words.

Fang Qianlong smiled, and then followed the man into the house. A male doll about five or six years old ran out, and when he saw Fang Qianlong and Du Ling'er, he didn't need to be instructed, and shouted sweetly: "Hello brother and sister." ”

Fang Qianlong squatted down and teased the child, Du Ling'er seemed to think of something, turned his face away, and stopped talking.

When a man sees a woman's expression, he only thinks that there is something unspeakable hidden in terms of childbirth, and he doesn't care. Fang Qianlong teased for a while before the child jumped back to the room.

"Child, you go to the street to buy a few vegetables, and then buy a pot of wine, and this Fang brother and I will have a good drink." The man said happily and pulled Fang Qianlong to sit on the bench.

"Brother, are you here to Beijing for business or to join your family? If you need help with something, brother, I still have the strength to help you move things. ”

"I... My husband and wife are here to join our relatives, and we don't have anything to help. ”

"I said, brother, you are so generous, it's good if you have relatives in the capital, brother, I don't have any skills, I can't mix. But those who can live in this capital are not ordinary people, the current emperor! Yes! The man said with a compliment.

When Du Ling'er heard this, she immediately felt a chill: "Is the emperor okay today?" I heard that the emperor was so mediocre that he cut down the huge trees in the countryside and built a big bed, and he had to wait for more than 20 concubines and palace maids in one night! ”

"Hey! Brother and sister, it's all rumors, you can't believe it! Let's just talk about me, didn't there be a big flood in Anhui last year? I also have a relative in Wancheng, when the flood was flooded, that family... It's like being a thief! That is, there is nothing left of it..."

"But then, the water receded, and guess what? sent 300,000 taels of silver and 500,000 loads of grain and grass to Wancheng! It also exempted Wancheng from paying taxes for two years! Isn't this a good emperor? ”

"And that Nanhuai, the king of Nanhuai is dead, Nanhuai and Chu Xiang are fighting, I haven't seen it, but I heard that the fight is fierce. And then? Nanhuai taxes are also exempted for one year! Alas, it's a pity..."

Du Linger stood up: "Enough, Qianlong, let's go!" ”

Fang Qianlong glared at Du Ling'er: "Sit down for me!" ”

Du Ling'er was glared at by Fang Qianlong, and she didn't dare to talk back for a while, she couldn't walk or sit at this time, she didn't know what to do. The man stood up and pulled Du Linger to sit down: "Hey, brother and sister, I am an honest person, and I can't speak, if there is anything you don't like, don't take it to heart." ”

Fang Qianlong got up and said apologetically: "Big brother, I... Daughter-in-law... It is a person of the domain. ”

"I understand, I understand. Siblings... It's Chu Xiang's, right? Hey, if you want me to say, this world is all one family, what did Chu Xiang and Nanhuai do at the beginning. But ah, no matter how much we get, then we're all still enlightened, aren't we? Okay, let's not talk about it, let's not talk about it. The man laughed.

The two had lunch at the man's house, said goodbye to the couple, and went out, Fang Qianlong whispered as if to himself: "Why did I come to the capital to assassinate the emperor?" ”

"Huh? Qianlong, what did you say? Du Linger didn't hear clearly.

"Yes, I resented Yi Xiaodao and the emperor at the beginning, and they haven't saved me until now. But then I stayed in the beggar gang for a long time, and I thought... Do I need to be saved? Perhaps, someone like me is more suitable for a beggar gang, isn't it? I always have my own ideas, and the free-spirited beggars are more suitable for me. What else do I resent them..."Fang Qianlong said in his heart.

Du Ling'er was stunned, she didn't know what Fang Qianlong meant by saying these things suddenly, but she didn't care much, she only knew that Fang Qianlong had a sense of belonging to the beggar gang in her heart at this time.

"What? Want to go back? Or... I'll go back with you? Du Linger was a little pleased.

"Go back, you have to go back, but not now. I have to finish what I promised my master first, and as for whether they can kill the emperor or not, it has nothing to do with me. Fang Qianlong's heart suddenly lost interest in assassinating the emperor.

Du Ling'er felt a little sweet in her heart, but fortunately, she showed her heart to her father on the mountain, and when she went back with Fang Qianlong this time, she should be able to be together.

"Ling'er, I like you." The breeze sent Fang Qianlong a word, and Du Ling'er opened her mouth wide in surprise and froze in place.

"I know what you want, and I like you too. When I got back, I told Master that we were together. Fang Qianlong continued.

Du Ling'er took out a square box from his arms and handed it to Fang Qianlong: "Hmph, if you don't say it, I won't give it to you!" ”

"What's that?" Fang Qianlong took the box and asked.

"Dragon Binding Pill!" Du Linger said proudly: "I also have one!" ”

"Put it away first." Fang Qianlong handed it back to Du Ling'er.

Du Linger was about to ask, directly at the end of the street, there were three people standing, two with guns, one with a mace, the bearer was wearing armor, and under the helmet was the appearance of a middle-aged man, with a cold gaze.

"Full?"
