Li Mingyi and Xie Yarong did not wait for Zuo Jiu to enter the village before leaving, but left before the people of the Fire God Sect entered the village, so as not to meet with them and cause unnecessary trouble. After leaving Yuejiazhuang, Li Mingyi became a lot more silent and seemed a little worried.

After the two walked for a while, Xie Yarong couldn't help but come over and say hello: "Mingyi, what's wrong with you?" Was it hurt last night? ”

Li Mingyi shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I'm just thinking if this Yue Taigong is considered a hero?" ”

Xie Yarong said angrily: "Hero? He is just a farmer, and his martial arts are not as high as yours. I've fought a few battles, lived longer, and then I'm a hero? ”

"Seems to be the truth." Li Mingyi came back to his senses and continued, "A hero should be like me, suave and suave, and a hero saves beauty, isn't it?" ”

Seeing that he had returned to his old self, Xie Yarong said angrily: "What kind of hero are you, the hero is to punish the traitor and eliminate the evil, and serve the country and the people." ”

Li Mingyi didn't have the slightest self-knowledge, and said: "Lao Tzu saved you, isn't it a punishment for adultery and evil?" You're not a citizen? Isn't Lao Tzu for the people? ”

Xie Yarong directly sarcastically said: "You are obviously in it for money." ”

"You didn't give it voluntarily?"

"Where did I volunteer, you forced it. You have the ability to return the hairpin to me. ”

"Phew, I still bought your horse, don't ride it if you have the ability."

Li Mingyi and Xie Yarong, who had returned to normal, went to the Holy Capital City so noisily.

The Holy Capital City is the capital of the Ming Kingdom, which is very majestic. The holy capital city is divided into two cities, the inner and the outer city. The inner city is the imperial city, where the royal family lives. The outer city is the holy capital in the general sense. The city wall of the holy capital city is as high as five zhang, and there is a moat more than three zhang wide outside the wall. Nine city gates and thirteen bridges provide a path out of the city for the people of the holy capital.

When Xie Yarong saw the Holy Capital City, she was shocked by its majesty. The two cautiously entered the holy capital through the southern gate, and the road was unimpeded. The soldiers on duty on both sides of the gate hid in the shadows and rested, without even looking at them.

As soon as he entered the Holy Shrine, Li Mingyi asked, "Okay, we have arrived." Go find your uncle. ”

Li Mingyi took two steps with his horse and found that Xie Yarong did not follow. So he turned around and asked curiously, "What's wrong?" It's all here, and you're still shy? ”

"No, it's not." Xie Yarong said with some twist, "You...... You...... Do you know where my uncle lives? ”

This question stunned Li Mingyi all of a sudden, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses, and he said angrily: "He is your uncle, you ask me?" ”

Xie Yarong said aggrievedly: "It's not like I haven't seen my uncle." I only know that his name is Wang Anyuan, and he is the secretary of the ministry. I haven't been to Shengjing City, so how do I know where he lives? ”

Looking at her appearance, Li Mingyi knew that this matter was not so simple, and asked, "You don't, you don't even know what your uncle looks like, right?" ”

"Uh." Xie Yarong nodded a little embarrassedly, and she answered.

Li Mingyi instantly felt that this trip was a big loss, and the eldest lady didn't know anything, so he dared to come to the Holy Capital to find his uncle. I still expect her to settle the final payment, now it's okay, I guess it's probably nothing.

Li Mingyi retracted his thoughts and said angrily: "Do you know how many people live in the Holy Capital City? More than 200,000! You know a name, so you dare to come to the Holy Capital to find someone? ”

Xie Yarong said embarrassedly: "There is also an official position." ”

She didn't say that it was okay, but as soon as she said it, Li Mingyi instantly became angry, and mocked: "Yes!" Uncle, you don't even know if he has hair, and he is still in an official position. ”

Xie Yarong said weakly: "There should be, I saw it when I was three years old." ”

Li Mingyi was completely speechless for her stubbornness, and teased: "Three-year-old looks old, isn't it?" ”

Xie Yarong was afraid that Li Mingyi would really be angry, so he left himself alone and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, let's find a local to ask, maybe someone knows him, after all, my uncle is a big official." ”

Li Mingyi had no choice, just started asking for directions according to her intentions. However, Li Mingyi, who was angry, did not ask himself, but looked at Xie Yarong and asked.

At a wonton stall on the side of the road in Shengjing City, the owner is sitting on a chair, waiting for business to come to the door. Xie Yarong stepped forward and asked softly, "Boss, do you know that Wang Anyuan, the secretary of the ministry, how to go to Lord Wang's mansion?" ”

The boss glanced at Xie Yarong and said angrily, "I don't know." ”

Xie Yarong wanted to ask anything more, but the boss turned his head and stopped paying attention to her. Seeing this, Li Mingyi could only step forward and said, "The boss has two bowls of wontons, but I really don't know Lord Wang's mansion?" ”

As soon as the boss heard that there was business, he instantly came to his senses, and hurriedly got up, and said while opening Luo: "It's still this son's arrogance." I know one of them. It's just Lord Wang who works in the yamen of Nancheng. I live in the third house in the front alley. ”

Seeing the boss talking, Xie Yarong hurriedly said: "It's not from the Nancheng Yamen, it's the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Officials is still the book?" ”

While the boss was serving wontons, he asked, "Officials?" What do you do? Is it a big official? ”

Obviously, the boss doesn't know what the officials are, but they all know that the officials are the same anyway. Xie Yarong didn't know what the officials were doing, so she had to say, "It shouldn't be too big." ”

The boss was even more puzzled, and asked rhetorically, "It's not too big, but how big is it?" ”

Li Mingyi saw that this boss really didn't know Wang Anyuan, and Xie Yarong couldn't ask anything, so he asked on the side: "Then do you know where the officials and masters usually live?" ”

The boss made the wontons and said, "I don't know." I only know that in this holy capital, a brick can smash a few officials. Oh, three blocks ahead, there seems to be a big official, and his mansion seems to be quite big. On the plaque above, there is also a king character. ”

As soon as she heard the word king, Xie Yarong was anxious to go over and take a look, but Li Mingyi refused. Not because of anything else, just because he felt that it would be a pity not to finish the wontons after paying the money and then leaving. So, Li Mingyi forcibly finished eating the wontons before setting off.

When the two of them came to the place pointed out by the boss, it was indeed a huge mansion, but neither of them had any intention of knocking on the door. Because, on the plaque above the main entrance of the mansion, the four big characters "and the prince's mansion" are clearly written.

The two of them couldn't, so they could only continue to ask people, but they inquired several people in a row, and they didn't know where the official department still lived. In fact, they don't know what the official book is for. After all, the common people usually only deal with the helpers in the yamen at most, and they have never seen any officials and scholars.

Gradually, it was getting late, and Li Mingyi, who was helpless, could only persuade: "Forget it, let's find an inn to live in first, and ask tomorrow." ”

Xie Yarong had no choice but to nod helplessly in agreement, but as a final insistence, she still said: "It's the only way." However, two rooms are to be opened. ”

Li Mingyi laughed contemptuously and said, "You pay?" ”

"I ......" Xie Yarong wanted to say that I would come out, but she really didn't have any money, so she could only change her words, "I will pay you back." ”
