Poor Family

Shi Fuxin first followed Qiao Xinyu and the Shi family sisters into the private room of the theater building. After the show was over, she secretly left the theater building through the back door under the pretext of going to the bathroom.

Ye Mo and Special Chasi were hiding in the crowd, and there was something wrong at first glance. Her sister and Xiahou Huanyan were following in the parade, so she had to go and check the situation.

The outer city was several times larger than the inner city, and the population was naturally much larger in the inner city. Before the parade had even left the Zhengyang Gate, you could see that the Suzaku Avenue outside the city was crowded with spectators.

In the inner city, Shi Fuyin and Xiahou Huanyan were able to rely on their agility to avoid being pushed by people around them, but when they approached Zhengyang Gate, because there were too many people, they had to slow down their pace.

The maidservants and mother-in-law who came with them protected the two of them and slowly passed through the city gate.

"There are too many people in the outer city, why don't we follow?"

Shi Fuyin looked at the crowd of onlookers standing shoulder to shoulder outside the city gate, and felt a little reluctant to go out.

Xiahou Huanyan is very energetic: "We have followed here, how can we give up halfway? I mean, your brother is just such a chance to parade, if you miss it, you will never see it again."

Shi Fuyin was still a little hesitant: "There are too many people, in case of an accident, something might happen."

Xiahou Huanyan was not at all afraid of this, but looked at Shi Fuyin in surprise: "Fuyin, you are so skilled, why are you still afraid of accidents? My martial arts are not as good as yours, so I am not afraid."

Shi Fuyin: "."

Xiahou Huanyan grabbed hold of Shi Fuyin, pulled her and quickly walked out of the city: "A chivalrous woman has to be a chivalrous woman, how can she be so timid? Fuyin, be more courageous."

Shi Fuyin was silent: "Slow down, you are the daughter of Dingguo's mansion."

Xiahou Huanyan immediately retorted: "Miss Qianjin, I want to be a chivalrous woman."

Uh.

Looking at Xiahou Huanyan, who looked delicate but carefree, Shi Fuyin was a little confused. After a moment of silence, she suddenly said: "You are very similar to my sister Xin."

Sister Xin, who is obviously very strong, wants to be a lady who is weak and unable to take care of herself; Xiahou Huanyan, who is obviously very weak, but wants to be a married daughter who is heroic and righteous.

Both of them are so self-deceiving.

Xiahou Huanyan disagreed, "What is the similarity between me and sister Fuxin? In terms of similarity, I am more like you, who is heroic and valiant, okay?"

While talking, Xia Hou Huanyan had already pulled Shi Fuyin out of Zhengyang Gate under the guidance of the mother-in-law and maid.

As soon as she got out of Zhengyang Gate, she obviously felt that there were many more pedestrians on the street. Shi Fuyin was worried that Xiahou Huanyan would be bumped into, so she had to hold her tight.

In the parade, when No. 2, Tanhua, and other Wu Jinshi were waving to the crowd on both sides of the street, Shi Dingxuan's expression was a little tense.

Back then on the battlefield, because he had been attacked by Beiyan Huyan family warriors, he was particularly sensitive to danger. As soon as he left Zhengyangmen, he smelled a crisis.

Shi Dingxuan looked around unintentionally, but couldn't find where the crisis came from, so he could only continue to walk along the street as if nothing had happened.

Among the crowd tens of meters away, a middle-aged man with a beard and a small boy on his neck looked at Shi Dingxuan's back indifferently.

Sure enough, he is worthy of being the champion of martial arts this year, and he still has two points of ability.

The bearded middle-aged man turned his head slightly, taking the opportunity to tease the little boy on his neck, he glanced back from the corner of his eyes.

The people from Special Examinations should have been attracted here, right?

Looking at the crowded crowd on both sides, the bearded middle-aged man twitched his mouth, revealing a bloodthirsty sneer.

As time passed, the parade team got closer and closer to Yongding Gate, and when they reached Yongding Gate, the parade ended.

In the private room on the third floor of the Jingwei Restaurant next to Yongding Gate, An Guogong Xiao Ziqing, Xin Guogong's heir Su Yuze, and Pingguo's heir son Cao Yunting were chatting with each other over wine.

When they heard the noise on the street getting closer, the three of them got up and walked to the window, watching the parade team getting closer and closer below.

"Yu Ze, your cousin has done a good job to Duke Xin's mansion today."

Cao Yunting said to Su Yuze with a smile.

Su Yuze looked at his cousin Su Yutong riding on a tall horse and happily greeted the onlookers, with a smile in his eyes, but he said modestly: "It's just a second place in the list, and it can't compare with the time of the Uncle Wuchang's family. Dingxuan."

Cao Yunting gave a 'hi': "No. 1, No. 2, and Tanhua are actually about the same. This ranking is actually very random. It depends on the emperor's mood. If you want me to say, Shi Dingxuan is not as good as Yu Tong, and I don't know the emperor. Why did you choose him as the No. 1 scholar?"

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Ziqing immediately coughed twice, and glanced at Cao Yunting: "Be careful when you are away from home."

Cao Yunting also realized that the place of speaking was wrong, so he smiled coquettishly: "I'm used to being casual in front of you, so I won't be an example."

Xiao Ziqing didn't say any more, and continued to look on the street, watching, suddenly let out a 'huh', when Su Yuze and Cao Yunting looked over, they saw him laughing softly again.

"Smile so happily, what's so strange?"

Cao Yunting stretched his neck and looked down. Seeing many girls on both sides of the street, he suddenly laughed and said, "Didn't Ziqing see a beauty? Tell us about it, and let us feast our eyes."

Xiao Ziqing squinted at him: "You rough man, don't insult other girls."

Cao Yunting was not happy: "Why, you see it as appreciation, but I see it as blasphemy. The difference between you is too big."

Su Yuze smiled: "You see, of course it's blasphemy. After all, you are betrothed. Ziqing is not there yet. Naturally, you can look at it openly. Maybe our future sister-in-law is on the street below. Woolen cloth."

Xiao Ziqing couldn't laugh or cry to his friend's joke: "You two, you are still so unscrupulous. My marriage has to be decided by the Empress Dowager."

Cao Yunting didn't take it seriously: "The reason why the Empress Dowager loves you so much is not based on your opinion. If you don't like it, she will definitely not force it."

Xiao Ziqing smiled, but did not speak.

Yes, the Empress Dowager will not force him, but he is the only man left in the An Guo Duke's Mansion. He shoulders the heavy responsibility of inheriting the Xiao family, so he can choose his future wife at will.

Knowing the pressure from his friend, Su Yuze asked, "Is the draft finalized?"

Xiao Zi counted his head: "It's just these two months."

Su Yuze patted him on the shoulder: "There are a lot of noble girls in the capital, but there are also many good ones. You have the support of the Empress Dowager, so keep your eyes open during the draft, and try to choose a well-matched one who is right for you and likes you." .”

"If you really can't meet your requirements, the worst thing is to choose a person with outstanding family background to marry home, and then take it back to the house when you meet someone you like in the future. Anyway, with your appearance and status, girls can only be happy and happy. "

Xiao Ziqing looked at the street below and smiled lightly: "Not necessarily, not all girls love skin and family background."

Cao Yunting laughed and said, "Then you underestimate your own charm."

Xiao Ziqing smiled and shook his head, just about to say something, when he saw confusion in the parade.

A few middle-aged people were deliberately creating chaos, constantly attacking the people around them, knocking them to the ground.

The crowd was already crowded, some people fell down, and there was a push and collision in the originally orderly team. As a result, more people fell to the ground.

"No, something is going to happen."

Xiao Ziqing's complexion changed, he turned around and ran downstairs.

Su Yuze and Cao Yunting saw each other and had no choice but to follow quickly.

The chaos came suddenly, even though Shi Fuyin had tried her best to walk on the edge of the crowd with Xiahou Huanyan, but with the chaos, she was still dragged by the crowd and moved towards Yongding Gate.

The maids and mother-in-law around her had already been dispersed, Shi Fuyin could only hold Xiahou Huanyan tightly to stay away from the crowd.

If there was just crowding and shoving, it would be fine, but the bad thing would be that a few middle-aged men attacked the crowd everywhere, intentionally guiding the flow of people to Yongdingmen.

The parade had been dispersed, and Shi Dingxuan spotted the middle-aged man who was making trouble in the first place. With his legs clamped, he jumped off the horse and went straight to attack the middle-aged man who was making trouble.

When Shi Dingxuan knocked down the two of them, No. 2, Tanhua and others came to their senses and joined the fight one after another.

With the addition of Shi Dingxuan and others, dozens of masked men in black suddenly flew out from both sides of the street, attacking the crowd fiercely.

At this time, Ye Mo and the others in the crowd were no longer hiding and appeared one after another.

When the two sides fight against each other, it is life and death.

The battle circle was too large, and countless innocent people were affected, and the screams, cries, and despair were endless.

"Woo woo woo~"

The street was too chaotic, Shi Fuyin took a look at the two sides at war, and she didn't have the idea of ​​meddling in other people's business. At this moment, she only had one idea, which was to take Xiahou Huanyan to a safe place.

Suddenly, a middle-aged man suddenly appeared, raised his sharp blade and slashed at the two of them.

"boom!"

Shi Fuyin kicked the visitor away, and was about to pull Xiahou Huanyan away when she heard a voice from her side.

"Come here quickly."

There was chaos on the street, and the shops on both sides were afraid of being affected, so they closed their doors quickly.

At this moment, the door of Beijing Restaurant was half open, and Xiao Ziqing was anxiously waving at Shi Fuyin and Xiahou Huanyan.

When Fuyin saw her, she pulled Xiahou Huanyan to go over, but she didn't.

Not only did she not pull, Xiahou Huanyan opened Shi Fuyin's hand instead, and ran towards a little boy who was hit by the crowd and fell to the ground a few meters away.

When Fuyin saw her, her complexion changed, and just as she was about to chase after her, a man in black was sent flying towards her.

The next moment, the battlefield erupted in front of her.

Xiahou Huanyan did have a bit of kung fu, and soon came to the little boy, picked him up, and when he was about to turn back, a big man with a beard suddenly appeared and slapped her.

Xiahou Huanyan, who was holding the child, instinctively bent over and turned her back, trying to protect the child with her body.

Just when she thought she was definitely going to receive this slap, a huge impact sounded above her head, and when she turned her head, she saw Shi Dingxuan appearing in front of her, and slapped the bearded man.

Then, I saw the two fighting inseparably.

At this time, Shi Fuyin rushed over, grabbed Xiahou Huanyan, and ran towards the Beijing Restaurant while pulling her.

"come on in!"

Xiao Ziqing opened the door a little, Shi Fuyin pushed Xiahou Huanyan and the child in, turned around and ran away.

Xiahou Huanyan yelled, "Fuyin, what are you going to do?"

"I'm going to save people!"

Then, Xiao Ziqing and Xiahou Huanyan saw that Shi Fuyin stepped on the handle of the knife that fell on the ground, and the long knife bounced. With a movement of Shi Fuyin's arm, she held the knife firmly, and then rushed towards the knife. The men in black attacking the crowd.

At this moment, both Xiao Ziqing and Xiahou Huanyan's eyes were shining.

There are three gates on the south side of the outer city of the capital, namely Zuo'an Gate, Yongding Gate, and You'an Gate. When a scuffle broke out at Yongding Gate, You'an Gate was eerily quiet.

On the tower of You'anmen Gate, Chu Yao, who was wearing a mask, crossed his arms and looked indifferently at the old man in the straw hat who was trying to confuse him out of the city.

"A person from the special supervision department?"

The old man in the straw hat looked at Chu Yao and sneered: "The emperor's son is better than his father, and he has bred two vicious dogs so quickly."

Chu Yao ignored him, just looked at the one-armed man behind the old man in the straw hat: "You shouldn't have come."

The one-armed man said indifferently: "Since I'm here, I will definitely take him away."

Chu Yao: "The capital is not a place where you can come and go whenever you want."

A hundred meters away, Shi Fuxin crossed her arms and leaned her back against the wall, rolling her eyes boredly, hitting whenever she wanted to, what nonsense, wasting her time.

If she hadn't felt a super strong fluctuation of internal force, she would have gone to Yongdingmen long ago.
