When Qin Yuandao and Liang Ji were heading out of the city to Jingzhou City in the wind and snow, Zhao Zhao did not dare to be idle. They were afraid that Lu Chen's men would do the opposite and hide the corpse in the busy city.

We walked through the streets and alleys in the cold storm and kept searching.

Fortunately, today was New Year's Eve. Even if they didn't want to make a big deal out of it and didn't wear military uniforms, the people still cooperated. Seeing them busy walking around the streets, I naturally knew that they might be plainclothes officials from the government, and I felt warm in my heart at that moment.

of.

It's New Year's Eve, and there are still people who sacrifice their family reunion to make thousands of homes brighter. They feel that they are protected and have a sense of security.

"General Zhao!" A team of searchers hurried to Zhao Zhao's side to meet him after completing the search.

Zhao Zhao had already completed the search of the city he was responsible for. Seeing that someone else had also completed the search, he hurriedly asked: "How are you doing there?"

The captain of this team that had completed the search was called Deng Xin. He shook his head, frowned and said, "I didn't find anything here, what about General Zhao?"

Zhao Zhao also pursed his lips and shook his head. When Deng Xin saw it, he naturally knew that the situation was not good. Seeing that heavy snow had covered the entire upper capital, the search became even more difficult.

"It's okay. We are just searching Fangshi right now. There are still many places we have not searched. When they all come back, we will search them one by one. Maybe they are going in the wrong direction." Despite this, Deng Xin was not willing to attack his own people.

He was confident, and when he saw Zhao Zhao looking disappointed, he spoke out to comfort him.

The soldiers behind Deng Xin also nodded and agreed: "Yes, we will make plans after Cheng Liang and the others come back."

Before setting off, they were originally very high-spirited. They were sure that Lu Chen and the others would not be able to go far and had to rush back to the palace to attend the feast, so they would not throw the body too far. It might be in the city, but now it seems that Zhao

Zhao's idea was wrong. It was very likely that someone else was cooperating with Lu Chen and throwing the body further away.

Deng Xin and the others didn't know that they were looking for this corpse, but soldiers were born to obey orders. Even so, they were all surprised that they could search for a corpse that was taken out of the palace today. It must have happened.

What a big deal.

Looking back at the time when General Liang Ji led a group of troops into the palace, it is likely that something happened that threatened the imperial power.

Thinking of this, Deng Xin and others naturally felt that the responsibilities on their shoulders became more important, and their expressions became more determined. They were not selected to follow General Liang to the front line to kill the enemy, but now they can garrison the capital and protect the heart of the Celestial Dynasty.

I also feel extremely honored.

Deng Xin and the others were supported by a sense of mission in their hearts, but Zhao Zhao understood the seriousness of this matter even more.

Finding the body of the palace maid is related to directly proving Lu Huiling, the mastermind behind this feast. The princess and the general entrusted such an important matter to themselves. If they failed to do a good job, wouldn't they have betrayed their trust in themselves?

Furthermore, General Liang is the adoptive father of Zhao Zhao. If it were not for General Liang, how could he, Wei Shen, Deng Xin, and Cheng Liang, the orphans of the battlefield, have grown so big. Now they have no worries about food and clothing, and have a high status.

It was given by General Liang.

From the perspective of General Jianwei's Mansion, Zhao Zhao saw that Prime Minister Lu's Mansion had committed an unforgivable crime and provoked them again and again. This time, he wanted Prime Minister Lu's Mansion to see that the people in the General's Mansion were not letting them go.

Round and flattened soft eggs!

The snow seemed to be falling heavier and heavier. Zhao Zhao and the others stood on the street for a long time. Their noses, cheeks and exposed fingers were all red from the cold. Their shoulders and hats were all covered with a thin layer of snowflakes.

They looked up at the heavy snow falling all over the sky and felt the mist of smoke and fire wafting from both sides of the street. Naturally, Deng Xin and the others felt hungry. They were half-grown boys who got hungry easily, and they hadn't eaten for a long time.

Deng Xin stepped forward and said to Zhao Zhao: "General Zhao, why don't we go to the noodle shop to have a bowl of noodles before we leave? Cheng Liang hasn't come back now, and we brothers... haven't eaten yet."

Zhao Zhao originally looked up at the imperial city in the distance in a daze. He was wondering what was happening in the palace at this time. Would the wind and snow inside be colder than outside the palace?

Suddenly he heard Deng Xin calling him, and then he came back to his senses. He looked around at his brothers. He could faintly hear their stomachs rumbling, but it was obvious that their expressions were serious.

Zhao Zhao was amused by their expressions and felt angry and funny: "Don't you know why you are hungry? It's a cold day and it's a big festival. You said you want to eat, but I can still starve you?"

"

I originally thought that Zhao Zhao was in a bad mood because he couldn't find the body and couldn't complete the task, so he just had to endure it when he was hungry. Now his life is good and he has no worries about food and clothing in Shangjing City. But when he was a child wandering around, he followed General Liang as a boy.

When training, no matter how hard you endure, it will pass if you endure it.

But when Zhao Zhao said this, everyone laughed, and then said: "General, eat with us!"

With that said, Deng Xin took Zhao Zhao, and the group of people walked arm-in-arm into a steaming noodle shop on the roadside.

This noodle shop seemed to be run by a family. Ben and his family were sitting together, eating melon seeds and not knowing what to say. When the smiling proprietress saw them coming in, she quickly pushed away the work sitting beside her and said, "Just wait and do it."

Well, the guests are here."

Although she said this, she stood up and went to greet her: "My guest, I am well on New Year's Eve. What do you want to eat?"

Zhao Zhao took advantage of the situation and sat down. He lowered his head and pondered. After all, Shangjing City was so big and it was impossible to conduct a large-scale and comprehensive investigation. Just relying on their three teams would require an accurate general direction.

When Deng Xin saw Zhao Zhao lowering his head and thinking about something, he stepped forward and smiled at the landlady and said, "What do we have at home?"

"Oh, sir, look what you said, Yongxing Noodle House, of course sells noodles." Although the proprietress is older, she still has her charm. The young man behind him lowered his head and wiped the table, beckoning them to sit down.

Next, she said to Deng Xin, "But our store has buns, noodles and other things, as well as mutton soup. Our master chef got up early to make it this morning. Two or three hours is the best time."

It’s time for delicious food. What would you like to order?”

Deng Xin couldn't make up his mind. They usually made do in the military camp and didn't often work outside. After hearing the boss's warm greeting, he turned around and looked at these brothers, then smiled at the boss's wife.

"You can go ahead and serve it. Each person will have a bowl of your best hot lamb soup noodle, and a few big hot buns that can fill your stomach. It's enough to keep them full and hot. Besides, we all have important things to attend to."

, I don’t care about that much!”

"Sir, I see you don't eat out often, do you?" After hearing this, the landlady's eyes smiled like two crescent moons, and she asked the worker to go to the back kitchen to send a message, and then she sat behind the counter, while

While jotting down something on the paper, he raised his head and said with a smile, "Our Yongxing Noodle Shop has always been good at high quality and low price, delicious and affordable. You have to be more particular about it. Our shopkeeper is not at home, but we can't bully our customers."

Yes, you said."

Deng Xin smiled after hearing this. The worker brought several bowls of hot mutton soup. The soup was still piping hot and had just been poured out of the pot. After drinking the mutton soup, the brothers felt a touch of warmth and comfort.

Panting.

When the lady boss saw it, she smiled again, waved the handkerchief in her hand, and said: "Seeing that you are rare guests, I will give you a few plates of large dumplings. They are made by ourselves and are not sold to outsiders!"

Saying that, he waved his hand to the work again.

Deng Xin quickly stood up to stop him and said, "The boss lady can't help it. I can eat these noodle soup steamed buns later, but I really don't need them anymore!"

"Hey, steamed stuffed buns with noodle soup are very filling and hot, but it's New Year's Eve today and it's snowing heavily again, so I need to eat some dumplings." The landlady said, and rolled up her sleeves and went to the back kitchen to personally serve them dumplings. "See you at home."

Thank you for your kindness. You chose our Yongxing Noodle House to have a meal during the Chinese New Year. I cannot treat you badly. Just wait, it will be here soon!"

When Deng Xin saw this, he had no choice but to give up and thank him profusely.

This made several half-grown young men feel embarrassed. They rubbed the backs of their heads and kept thanking the fat and amiable landlady.

There was a little girl with big eyes sitting behind the counter. There were a few dumplings that she was eating in a small bowl. Deng Xin turned around and saw her. She looked up at Deng Xin with her big eyes open and put the dumplings in her hand.

inside.

Deng Xin thought it was cute, so he immediately noticed it. The proprietress who was busy in the kitchen saw it, smiled and said, "He Yang, call me uncle."

Deng Xin turned to the landlady and smiled and said, "Is her name Heyang? She's very cute."

The landlady didn't mean to be modest at all, she just nodded, looked at little Heyang and said, "She's over two years old, cute and tight, but she's also afraid of life. She loves to pester her father hahahaha, but she's quite heartless."

While looking at the dumplings boiling and rolling in the pot, the proprietress couldn't help but look at Xiao Heyang. The angle of the kitchen was just right so that she could see the counter. I guess she looked at the shop like this on weekdays.

Deng Xin couldn't help but ask: "What about the shopkeeper? Where did He Yang's father... go?"

The lady boss stopped picking up dumplings in her hands, her smile suddenly froze on her face, and her eyes looked blankly ahead.

The workman also looked back at Deng Xin, thinking that this issue was a restriction that could not be mentioned in ordinary times.

Deng Xin suddenly felt that he shouldn't ask this question. Zhao Zhao and others also heard the sound and looked over, wanting to know what happened.

The proprietress was optimistic and cheerful, and she just smiled and said with relief: "This isn't going to be a war! I'm going on an expedition with Prince Jing and General Liang!"

As he said that, the dumplings were cooked, so the landlady put them one by one, took out the workman, wiped the water on his hands, walked to the counter and hugged Xiao Heyang, raised his head and smiled at Deng Xin and said: "He Yang

Yang Ke misses her father, but he will come back soon, right, little Heyang."
