Renault followed the white figure in front of him silently. He didn't know the woman leading the way, but the order he received from the adults was to listen to this woman in everything today. Look at that woman's weakness.
He couldn't help but feel worried because of her appearance. He really couldn't believe that such a woman would also be one of their 100 members of the Royal Guards. He was only a general bannerman now. This was the reward he got for fighting desperately to protect the Lord that day in Fujian.
. Even with such an official position, his family in Tamsui can also be allocated a hundred acres of land without paying taxes. He doesn't think about anything now. He just wants to hold on to this official position comfortably until his son grows up.
Big. It seems that people in the yamen have said that the official position of our Jinyiwei can be hereditary. When the time comes, the son inherits his official position, plus his own land, his family can be regarded as a small lord.
!
But when he saw the thin figure floating in front of him, he was a little worried. He was worried that if there was a fight later, he would have to dedicate some of his brothers to protect her, although he didn't know about this weird woman.
, what is the relationship with the adults, but he also knows that the woman next to the adults may become the woman at the adults' bedside at some point. Isn't Olivia Chihu the best proof? And
He had to complete the task assigned by the adults and also protect Mu Baihu. He really felt that this task made him a little entangled.
The carriages and horses in front were still walking leisurely. Looking from here, he could only vaguely see some blurry back figures. He wanted to remind Mu Baihu several times to be careful of these people taking advantage of the gradually dimming scenery.
The night disappeared. This is the capital of the empire, not the endless grassland and Gobi. These people might disappear in the blink of an eye.
But this Mu Baihu really didn't like to talk. He hesitated several times and finally did not say out his reminder. Even if he could not complete the task, it was also Mu Baihu's dereliction of duty, and he should not be implicated.
"Shh!" Mu Siniang turned around and made a silencing gesture. Renault and a group of his brothers all became nervous.
"Follow them, don't get lost. Don't act rashly until I come back!" Mu Siniang said softly, and floated towards the back of the team.
In the eyes of others, this is a caravan of more than a dozen people. Although this caravan does not even have a carriage or horse, which is a bit strange, but don't you see that these people all have foreign faces? Are they not allowed to do business in Beijing?
, I walked home after everything was sold out!
It's getting late now, and these barbarians haven't found an inn to stay, so it's normal for them to be anxious and hurry. Here, under the emperor's feet, are they still afraid that these people are gangs of criminals?
The two groups of people, one in front and one behind, kept a sufficient distance and slowly disappeared into the dusk. No one noticed that the woman in white who floated from the front to the back of the caravan also disappeared after the caravan passed and was never seen again.
Can't see it anymore.
…
Looking at the carriages and horses in front of him and entering the inn where the lights were already lit, Renault hesitated. He didn't know whether to follow them into the inn or just stare at these people outside. He looked behind him.
It seems that Mu Baihu hasn't followed him yet.
"Reno, let's go in too!" A brother next to him reminded softly. He didn't know where these people were, but these dozen big men were very conspicuous at this time of the year without eating or lodging. He still knew. of!
"Go in!" Renault took one last look behind him and gritted his teeth. No matter what, as long as he didn't act rashly, he would do nothing after entering and just eat, drink and stare at them!
Jiang Bin was in a very bad mood. No matter who he was, he would not be in a good mood after he was almost kicked out of Beijing. Although he knew that the people who kicked him out were doing it for his own good, he still felt this depressed feeling. , but it cannot be shaken off no matter what.
Several of his confidants who followed him on the road had already eaten him for talking too much. At this time, everyone knew that his stall owner was in a bad mood. He entered the inn, ordered food, and sat far away, leaving Jiang Bin alone. Drink by yourself at a table.
Renault walked in and saw Jiang Bin at first glance, but it was as if he didn't recognize him. He glanced at him and immediately started talking to the store owner who came over to greet him enthusiastically. When a person checked into his own inn, the owner of the inn had already greeted him with joy, for fear that the reception would not be good enough and the God of Wealth would run away.
Jiang Bin glanced at this group of lusty people and didn't take it seriously. After being in the big stall, he naturally knew that not all lusty people were extremely rich. Like the Ming Dynasty, some lusty people also had poor settlements. They were just a group of extremely ordinary-looking businessmen, not worthy of him taking a second look at them.
A confidant walked over quietly, picked up the wine glass on the table, filled up the wine for the life in front of him, and whispered in his ear: "Big stall, these people are armed with weapons. Do you want us to go over and check it out?"
"What a stupid question!" Jiang Bin glared at him angrily, "What are you thinking about? When did you see these people without weapons? In Beijing, they don't always carry these knives around. You Why didn’t you check it out then?”
It is normal for a Semu person to carry a knife, but it is abnormal not to carry a knife. Jiang Bin rebuked his men and couldn't help but look at the group of people again. Suddenly, the blush on his face after drinking a few glasses of wine suddenly disappeared. The pupils in his eyes shrank sharply as if they had been pricked by a needle.
No, there must be something wrong! When I went out of the city in the afternoon, I seemed to have seen them once. How could it be such a coincidence? There are so many inns outside the city, and they are more than ten miles away from the capital. How could they be so coincidental, and get together with them again? We bumped into each other ourselves.
He was alert, and when he looked at these people again, he quickly discovered what was really wrong: these people were too quiet and well-behaved.
In his impression, no matter whether they are rich or poor, they don't look like this. They are noisy, they are rough, they are simply synonymous with barbarians, but look at what they look like now, they are peaceful there. Sitting quietly, watching their leader negotiate with the store, they did not chat or joke, nor did they show off or make any noise. In this situation, it seemed that they were not like a caravan, but more like... an army. !
Army! Thinking of this possibility! Jiang Bin suddenly felt that the hairs on the back of his neck were exploding. These people were not caravans, they were definitely well-trained soldiers. The only people in Beijing who had a large number of lustful soldiers were only three. There are three thousand battalions in the main camp. Could it be said that they are all soldiers of the three thousand battalions?
