The civil and military styles of the Xia Kingdom were all prevalent, so it was common for Gu Qingci and a few people to carry weapons, except for the prohibition of weapons such as gōngnǔ, there would be no restrictions on anything else, and Gu Qingci and others were concerned about entering Beijing, but no one appeared.

Chang'an City, the most prosperous city in the world, is lively everywhere, no matter how much Gu Qingci and a few people make a lot of noise outside the city, they are overwhelmed by the sea of people when they enter the city, and it is impossible for them to make any noise in the city, this is no longer a dignified entry into the city, but a provocation to a country.

Walking on the street, the endless stream of people and things can't help but make people sigh, this seems to be the wealth and grace of the whole world are concentrated in this city, which is enthusiastic and intoxicating, and the heart is shaking Walking in this vast sea of people, Gu Qingci couldn't help but raise his head with the same people in this city.

The intoxication of the Xia people, that is pride!

Walking on the street, many people are secretly watching the four of them, to be precise, Qin Keqing has a beauty like ice and snow, no matter where he puts it, it will attract the attention of young people in the flowering season, and Gu Qingci's warmth and jade can also attract too many eyes of the opposite sex.

When the two walk together, no one will come forward to talk, Qin Keqing has the coldness of rejecting people thousands of miles away, even if it is a fair lady and a gentleman, no one will be bored, and Gu Qingci, don't say it, there is a Qin Keqing by his side.

As for Liu Yiqing and Su Yi, they were only covered by Gu Qingci and Qin Keqing.

Liu Yiqing came to the capital for the first time, and he was still a little excited for a while, his face was a little flushed, he pulled Gu Qingci and asked, "Big brother, are we going directly to the yamen to complain now?"

Liu Yiqing's words came out, Su Yi also looked at Gu Qingci, Qin Keqing was still flat, she didn't have any intention of asking, she just followed Gu Qingci, that is, Gu Qingci wanted to carry a sword into the imperial city, I was afraid that she would not hesitate.

Gu Qingci shook his head and said, "For the time being, let's find an inn to live in, rest for a while, and let those people prepare." ”

"Okay," Liu Yiqing said happily: "I just like that big brother, you are so domineering, if you want to make trouble, you will be beaten head-on, afraid of a fart, they are not prepared, how boring it is, hehe, just right, I will take a good look around Chang'an City today, I am so big or the first time I come to Chang'an, eh, what about you?"

Su Yi nodded and said, "I'll come with you!"

"Okay, well, Qin Keqing, eldest brother, what about the two of you?" asked Liu Yiqing.

Gu Qingci shook his head and said: "I came to the capital, after all, some people can't sit still, instead of letting them look for me everywhere, it's better for me to wait for them to come, you go to have a fun, I won't go, it's not the first time I've come to Chang'an." ”

Liu Yiqing looked at Qin Keqing again.

Qin Keqing said lightly: "I protect Gu Qingci." ”

Liu Yiqing said casually: "Does my eldest brother still need protection, Qin Keqing, you ......?"

Before Liu Yiqing finished speaking, he was grabbed by Su Yi and stepped on him fiercely, so painful that Liu Yiqing almost screamed out, holding back his red face and saying, "Su Yi, what are you doing?"

Su Yi glanced at Liu Yiqing, and said: "If you don't know, shut up, talk less, and let Miss Qin protect Gu Gongzi, the two of them also have a care together, and besides, what's the point of people following you?"

"I ......"

Liu Yiqing was about to say something, when his face suddenly changed, his eyes instantly froze, and he saw a few people in the crowd slowly surrounding.

Qin Keqing slowly raised his head and looked at the middle-aged man at the front, as if a sword was against the man's chest, which frightened the man all over, as if there was frost all over the place, and hurriedly and respectfully arched his hand: "Gu Gongzi, don't get me wrong, we are not here to find trouble." ”

Gu Qing took two steps forward and saluted, "I don't know what Your Excellency is looking for me?"

Gu Qingci stood in front of Qin Keqing, the icy cold suddenly dissipated, the middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, there was a kind of relaxation for the rest of his life, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and said, "It was my young lady who sent me to pick up a few people, and I have prepared the inn for you." ”

"Who is your young lady?" asked Gu Qingci.

"My young lady's surname is Mo!" said the man.

Liu Yiqing suddenly jumped out and said excitedly: "Eh, is your young lady Mo Lanying Mo girl, she also came to the capital?

The middle-aged man smiled at Liu Yiqing, looked at Gu Qingci again, and got Gu Qingci's approval, so he led the way in front of the head, wandered out of the crowd, and gradually quieted down, and soon entered a quiet street, wide and narrow enough to cross the carriage, there are some inns on both sides, but they are relatively quiet.

The middle-aged man explained, as he walked: "This whole street is basically an inn, but the price is very expensive, so few people come on weekdays, and most of them are foreigners, and they rent the entire inn directly, so it is relatively quiet." ”

"Well," Gu Qingci nodded, and said: "When I was in Chang'an before, I knew about this place, many foreign envoys came to Chang'an, and the imperial court would arrange it here, it was a rare and quiet place, and Miss Mo was quite good at choosing a place." ”

Soon, when he walked to the middle of the street, Gu Qingci saw someone suddenly jumping down from the inn, quickly walking over, and shouting: "Scholar, fool, you are finally here, this girl has been waiting for you for a long time!"

Gu Qingci smiled slightly, and saluted: "Miss Mo, it's been a long time. ”

"Miss Mo, are you waiting for me?" Liu Yiqing touched the back of her head, her expression was extremely unnatural, and she smiled as if she was shy: "I was thinking, I didn't expect you to really come." ”

Mo Lanying patted Liu Yiqing on the shoulder fiercely and said: "Fool, why are you still so stupid, you are a drunkard idiot, what do people say when you stand in the rivers and lakes, Liu Yiqing is the head of righteousness, you have to be smarter, your image is very important." ”

Liu Yiqing smiled and nodded, "I know, I know." ”

Su Yi stood next to Liu Yiqing, looked at Mo Lanying, and suddenly stepped on Liu Yiqing again, and then walked to Qin Keqing's side in Liu Yiqing's blank eyes, and the scene was a little cold for a while.

Gu Qingci smiled helplessly and said, "Miss Mo, let me introduce you," as he spoke, Gu Qingci pointed at Qin Keqing and said, "This is my good friend, Qin Keqing, who is known as the sword riddle in the rivers and lakes......"

Mo Lanying's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "I have admired the name for a long time, I heard about you many years ago. ”

Qin Keqing looked at Gu Qingci, and then nodded in response.

Gu Qingci was afraid that Mo Lanying would be embarrassed, and explained: "Miss Qin has always been like this, and she is like this to everyone," and pointed to Suyi and said, "This is also my friend, Qin Idiot Suyi, you should have heard of it!"

"Oh, of course I do. Mo Lanying said: "It's the one who has a baby kiss with Liu Yiqing......"

............

Night falls, Chang'an City is brightly lit, enter the night, but Chang'an City is silent, even feel a little quiet, occasionally someone passes, look up at the towering city wall, then slowly enter the city, there is an old man slowly into the city, leaning forward, drooping his eyes, slowly walking on the bluestone road.

Suddenly, he heard someone talking, some people said that there were seven riddles in the world, and some people said that Mo Shangren was like jade, his body stiffened slightly, and he sighed softly: "Is it coming? It's finally here, before dying, you should also go and see it!"

After a while, the old man walked slowly into a quiet alley, he really looked no different from an ordinary person, with his hands behind his back, like an old man who was a little unresponsive, walked into the alley, and looked up at the inn.

At this time, by the window of the inn, there was a young man dressed in white who seemed to feel something, turned his head to look down, but didn't see anything, and after the young man turned around, an old man slowly walked out of the alley, and at the last moment he was fixed on his satisfied smile: "In the end, it is a thousand turns, and you must always do not forget your original intention, Master Gu, old and decayed...... Admire!"

So, that night, there was an old man who took the initiative to walk into the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion and surrendered himself, so shocked that the prefect of Jingzhao Mansion got up from bed in the middle of the night and dared to go to the yamen, because the old man who surrendered, although he looked very ordinary, he had an unusual identity, he was Ning Qing, the eunuch of Qintian, and he had been an official in the court for decades!

That night, the criminal department was restless, and there was an old man in the prison.

............

On the same night, the person who couldn't sleep quietly, there was also a person from the Six Divisions, Ma Dongyang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites who had been lying on the hospital bed for many days, sat up in shock when he was dying, and a candle burned until dawn!

In that simple study, Ma Dongyang's hair has turned gray, but in this warm spring season, he is wearing a thick cotton jacket, coughing constantly, and there is an old man in front of him who is adding charcoal to the brazier.

There was love in his eyes, and he couldn't bear it, sighed, and said, "Master, it's not like things haven't turned around. ”

Ma Dongyang was very weak, his face was pale, his hands were close to the charcoal, and he asked, "Yibo, Ning Qing, did you really turn yourself in?"

Yibo nodded and said: "Just now, I received news that Ning Qing surrendered, claiming that because of some conflicts, he killed Zhang Zhihuan and Yue Yan, and was willing to be punished, and the Criminal Department temporarily put Ning Qing in prison, and the specific matter is still under investigation." ”

Ma Dongyang's face suddenly flushed, and it took a long time for him to come to his senses and say, "That, what's going on over there in the 100,000 mountains?"

"According to the princess, Your Majesty has sent someone to bring Wu Kui back," said Yibo, and then said, "However, sir. There is another thing, Wu Kui's son, that is, the kid you arranged to go to Jingzhao Mansion to be the head catcher, I don't know what happened today, he disappeared out of thin air, no matter how we looked for it, we didn't find it. ”

Ma Dongyang raised his eyebrows, a bad premonition surged in his heart, he clenched his fists, and said, "It seems that we are all at a low point This Gu Qing resigned, well, by the way, how did that thing go?"

Yibo nodded and said, "Don't worry, master, it's done, I'll go see Gu Qingci tomorrow and let him take the initiative to let go!"

Ma Dongyang's frowning brows widened a little, and said, "Why don't you go now?"

"The little master has gone!"
