Yu Zhi knew that Kyoto was very lively without the three of them, and a lot of news came out.

This morning, when the city gate first opened, there was a naked young man who walked into the city gate, only wrapped in a dark red torn cloth.

How can the emperor allow refugees to enter Kyoto? Especially recently, foreign missions have come to Kyoto to pay homage. How can they be allowed to see this situation? Isn't this an insult to the majesty of our dynasty?

The soldiers guarding the city did their best to stop him. After all, the superiors had given repeated orders to ensure that no suspicious persons could enter Kyoto.

It was quite suspicious that this little beggar appeared at the city gate so early in the morning.

The soldiers guarding the city were also real people and detained this man. Little did he know that this was Bai Li, the young master of the Bai family who was taken out of the "body throwing" mountain temple in Kyoto by Yu Zhi last night.

Last night, the last thing Lin Yu did was to take off Bai Li's clothes and burn them all clean. Then, Bai Li woke up from the cold just before dawn.

Naked, he wanted to cry but had no tears. He pulled the tattered cloth tent from the mountain temple and draped it over his body, and walked eight miles alone in the snow.

And what's most coincidental is that when Bai Li arrived at the west city gate, he saw the city gate wide open. The most people entering and exiting Kyoto in the morning, those vendors, those delivering food to various restaurants...there are all of them. Every morning and evening are the most chaotic.

when.

As the population increased, word of mouth spread. The farce of Bai Li, the young master of the Bai family, at the West City Gate spread like wildfire, and also created more topics for people in Kyoto to talk about after dinner.

The Bai family brought people back from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division, and the subsequent events were slowly brewing.

Another thing is that the Crown Prince of Zhao was actually assassinated in Prince Zhao's Mansion.

Compared to Bai Li's shameful farce, the assassination of Prince Zhao shocked the entire court. Dozens of imperial doctors from the palace entered Prince Zhao's Mansion one after another, and they worked all night to stabilize the injury.

Your Majesty is furious because someone dares to assassinate a member of the royal family at the feet of the Emperor, let alone in the palace of Prince Zhao. It is an act of contempt for the dignity of the royal family and an act of treason that cannot be tolerated by heaven.

Qiu Yu, who was the commander of the Military and Horse Division of the Five Cities, was given a good lesson, as was the governor of Shuntian Prefecture. As long as some troubles in Kyoto were reported to the palace, the two of them could not escape the blame.

Therefore, the two of them have maintained a tacit understanding for many years - hide something if you can. As a minister, you should always make His Majesty feel at ease.

Qiu Yu was rewarded with fifty big bans, while the governor of Shuntian Prefecture was rewarded with thirty big bans. It is said that military officers who are physically weak will always receive more punishment.

There are two incidents, one big and one small. Bai Li, the protagonist who should have been the headline news, was robbed of the "limelight" by Prince Zhao.

In the public, people really like to discuss Bai Li, the young master of the Bai family. After all, Bai Huahua's butt has been seen by many people and has created daydreams.

Some wealthy young masters with special hobbies felt very itchy when they heard about it, but when they thought that the other party was the young master of the Ministry of Finance, they gave up such plans.

The people do not fight with the officials.

Yu Zhi and the others did not return to Kyoto until noon. This time they did not drive, but left the Bai family's carriage at the foot of the cliff in Kyoto. There were many carriages entering the city, so Qiu Ruoruo paid some fares and took a ride.

Got a truck delivering rice.

It was a warm day today, and the three of them were sitting on piles of rice bags. The cold wind in front of them was not that cold. Looking at the scenery along the way from a different angle was refreshing.

Obviously, the rice carriage was smoother than last night. For this reason, Qiu Ruoruo even disliked Yu Zhi for a few words.

"I heard that these gentlemen and young ladies are from Kyoto. Have you heard about the interesting things in Kyoto today?" Today is the third time the coachman has entered Kyoto. Errands like theirs require several trips a day.

"Tell me about it?" Yu Zhi said with a smile. He thought that there must be something about Bai Li. How could he, the culprit, not be clear about it?

After listening to what the other party said, the three people's eyes were not only expected, but also had an extra hint of surprise.

The assassination of Prince Zhao's Mansion came about strangely. However, in the eyes of the three of them, this matter had little to do with them. This was a matter under the control of the Wucheng Military and Horse Division and the Shuntian Mansion. Qiu Yu was in charge of the Qiu family.

No matter what, it won't fall on this little girl Qiu Ruoruo.

The west gate is the gate with the most entrances and exits. Wang Baihu, who was on duty last night, has been waiting here since he heard about Bai Li, the young master of the Bai family. It was already very tiring to be on duty all night, but now he still does not dare to

I closed my eyelids for fear of missing the person waiting for me.

Wang Baihu is called Wang Dafu. He is a smart man, otherwise he would not be able to sit in the position of head of a hundred households. In the officialdom, being diligent and practical is not necessarily a good thing. The most important thing is to have discernment.

The earthy name goes well with his fat, plump face and body shape.

"Dafu, you're not on duty today, why don't you go and rest?"

"Go, go, let's do some business?"

Wang Dafu shouted back a few of his colleagues, but they didn't care and went about patrolling on their own.

As soon as the carriage of Yu Zhi and the others entered the city, they were stopped for routine inspection. This is daily work.

Wang Dafu's eyes were bright, and at a glance he saw Qiu Ruoruo, whose head was covered in a velvet robe. At this moment, the three of them were being pulled out of the carriage by the soldiers on duty for questioning.

When Wang Dafu saw it, he immediately ran up and said, "What are you asking? This is the young lady from the commander's family. Do you think she is suspicious?" He stared at the young soldier, as if the child's career was in doubt.

The three of them looked blankly at the man in front of them who looked a bit rich in armor. Qiu Ruoruo didn't know Wang Dafu. There were many people in the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, and Qiu Ruoruo couldn't remember them all.

Qiu Ruoruo does not need to know Wang Dafu, but Wang Dafu must know Qiu Ruoruo.

After Wang Dafu reminded them, the three of them understood.

"Miss, don't worry, my subordinates have taken care of last night's affairs. No one has ever entered or exited the West City Gate after the curfew." Wang Dafu said confidently.

Qiu Ruoruo said: "Thank you very much, Wang Baihu."

Yu Zhi stared into Wang Dafu's eyes with a smile, "Wang Baihu is not afraid of offending the Bai family with his actions? After all, he is the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, an upright and third-rank imperial official."

Wang Dafu looked at the thinly dressed young man next to Qiu Ruoruo. There was a hint of alertness in the young man's eyes. "This subordinate is a subordinate of Commander Qiu. I really didn't see anyone out of the city yesterday. He just beat his subordinates to death. My subordinates

I’ve never seen it either.”

Yu Zhi smiled and signaled that Wang Dafu didn't need to be so serious. He reached out and took out a banknote from Qiu Ruoruo's sleeve, stuffed it into Wang Dafu's armor without any trace, and gently pressed it on it.

He patted his chest and said, "Wang Baihu is working hard on duty. With this little money, I can take a few brothers to live a leisurely life."

After saying that, the three of them Shi Shiran left, leaving Wang Dafu alone in a daze.

Who is that young man? Why is he so close to the lady?

Wang Dafu couldn't figure it out. He escaped from his arms and turned around to go back to rest. His mission had been completed. As for what would happen to the Bai family and the Qiu family afterwards, even if they were implicated,

He is also on the side of the Qiu family.

He knows clearly who is strong and who is weak.

...

The envoys of the Prairie Wolf Court were placed in the Zizhu Courtyard in the middle city. Most of the royal annexes in the middle city were used to receive envoys. These days, Nuo Min has been in the villa and has never stepped out of the courtyard.

step.

Although she grew up on the grassland, her thoughts are much more delicate than those of Da Chu's counselors. If she wants to travel, there will definitely be guards sent by Da Chu's royal family to follow her. If she doesn't feel at ease while wandering around, it is better not to stroll around.

"Where's Mengsi? Did you go to the house of that young lady from the Qiu family again?" Nuo Min asked. Mengsi was the one who had the most active contacts with people in Da Chu, but his warmth was only for that young lady from the Qiu family.

Dolan is sitting opposite Nuomin. There is a purple clay pot on the table in the middle. There is some tea in the pot. It is the top quality Tieguanyin given by the Emperor of Chu. Even this purple clay pot was taken from the palace. Because the grassland

There won’t be any exquisite gadgets on it either.

There was a stove beside the table, and an iron kettle was placed on the stove. Occasionally, the sound of crackling dry wood could be heard in the stove.

"Princess, Mengsi has fallen in love with the young lady of the Qiu family and wants to take her back to the grassland. You don't care. We have serious business this time. How can we let Mengsi behave like this?" Dolan complained quite a bit.

A smile flashed across Nuo Min's heroic face, and she joked: "Are you jealous?"

"No way." Two red clouds appeared on Dolan's face. Every time he mentioned the ambiguity between Mengsi and her, Dolan always acted like a daughter. Of course, she is a daughter. When it comes to

How can a lover who has not pierced the window paper not feel shy?

Nuo Min played with the tea set. This was her first time making tea, so her technique was a bit awkward and occasionally made crackling sounds.

"Princess, what do you think I should do? That night at the dinner, I felt that Mengsi's eyes were not innocent when he looked at the lady. I didn't expect that he really wanted to take her back to the grassland. Alas, I pretended to go to find that lady at that time.

A handsome young man, but Mengsi looks indifferent..."

Nuomin didn't listen very seriously and responded carelessly. She was very attentive. When she concentrated on one thing, she didn't care about anything else.

"Princess! Are you listening to me?"

Dolan dared to yell at Nuo Min like this simply because the two of them have been friends since childhood.

Nuo Min was stunned and said, "If I were you, I would tell Meng Si."

"What? I am a girl, how..."

Nuo Min seemed not to have heard and continued: "Tell him, maybe he likes you too, but if you don't tell him, he won't know. Maybe he will leave, but you told him after all, don't complain or regret.

"

Dolan thought thoughtfully, "The princess is indeed the princess." Dolan seemed to have solved the major issue on his mind.

It turns out that girls on the grassland are very nervous.

Nuomin stopped in her hands, as if her mind was not on the tea set in front of her. She thought of something long ago. On the grassland ten years ago, a boy said the same thing to her.

"Does the princess like anyone?" Dolan asked tentatively. There are many tribal warriors on the grassland who admire Nuomin, and the kings of many tribes have proposed marriage to the old Khan.

Nuo Min was startled, and gently touched the simple wooden bracelet hidden in the sleeve of her left hand with her right hand. She thought of that thin figure again, with a face with a runny nose, smiled slightly, and then looked lonely again.
