"General, I'm not, I don't, I..." The general wanted to move forward, but his throat was blocked by the general's sword.
Blood spattered and the person fell to the ground in an instant.
The people were stunned for a moment, and no one dared to speak.
The general jumped back on his horse and said, "This is the consequences of disobeying the emperor's orders, without exception!"
"No matter who it is, they are not allowed to leave before the emperor's order is lifted. Listen clearly!"
The general flicked the long sword in his hand, and a few drops of bright red blood flew out along the tip of the sword.
The silver light of the sword's edge and the bright red blood light make people shudder when they look at it.
"take away!"
The general rode his horse back the same way.
"yes."
The two guards moved forward to carry the body on the ground.
The people were frightened and retreated one after another. The team that had been neatly organized just now suddenly dispersed.
Some people even hurriedly pushed their trolleys back.
Two women carrying baskets of mushrooms passed by Feng Jiuer and Qiao Mu.
The person walking in front said: "If there were more upright generals like General Lei, Xixi City would be saved."
"It's useless! General Lei can't do anything with just General Lei."
The person walking behind responds.
"That's right."
The person in front sighed lightly, "There are people like this up and down, so what can General Lei do?"
"Today, we can only keep our mushrooms for ourselves."
"We can still get through in a day or two, but if the city gate remains closed..." The person walking behind looked at the mushrooms in the basket, shook his head and sighed.
"I finally saved it. If I had known I would have taken it out yesterday."
"It's useless to talk about it now."
The person in front turned around helplessly and said, "Let's go, one step at a time."
A large group of people slowly dispersed.
Everyone who left looked more or less helpless.
The instigator, Feng Jiuer, looked at it and felt very uncomfortable.
Isn’t the Feng people in peace and prosperity?
Why are there so many people who don’t have enough to eat?
Wutong Town is not far from the capital and doesn't look too poor.
The closure of the city once made people see that there are still many unfortunate people in this nice place.
The rich get richer and the poor get poorer, which mainly reflects one word: greed! The people dispersed, and Feng Jiuer and Qiao Mu found a teahouse on the roadside and sat down.
The two seemed to be chatting, but their eyes were looking towards the city gate intentionally or unintentionally.
Their purpose was to know when the guards would change shifts.
Feng Jiuer knew that there must be brothers investigating these things, but she responded that she was idle and stopped.
The two sat for a while, and two men sat down opposite them.
"Coming."
Qiao Mu said casually and looked back at the store.
"Staff, please give me two more cups and two green bean cakes in exchange for a pot of tea."
"Okay."
The store responded and sent the items quickly.
Xing Zizhou drank tea and ate cakes with the brother.
"By the way, where is the city lord's home?"
Feng Jiuer looked at Xing Zizhou and asked in a low voice.
"There is a place called Ande Town nearby. It takes less than two hours to get there quickly."
Xing Zizhou took out a square towel and wiped his mouth.
When Xing Zizhou saw the store owner coming out, he immediately changed his mind: "I think everyone's goods can't be shipped out. What should we do with our goods?"
Feng Jiuer sighed and shook her head.
"I heard that everyone's big business has gone out. It's difficult for a small business like ours!"
"Can't you find someone to clear things up?"
Qiao Mu poured himself a cup of tea.
"I heard that General Lei killed someone just now. Who dares to accept this money now?"
The brother specifically raised his voice.
The store owner looked at the people for a while and then walked over.
He approached Xing Zizhou and asked in a low voice: "Sir, what cargo do you want to transport?"
Where to transport it?”
"It's some medicinal materials. We are coming from Xiyuan City and plan to pass through Xixi City, Qiaozhong City and then to Fenglai City."
"I didn't expect that something big happened in the capital, and all the city gates were closed."
Feng Jiuer shook her head helplessly.
"Qiao Zhongcheng is close to the capital, and it is impossible to go there now."
The brother put down the cup in his hand.
"If we can go out at the south gate, we can go to Luoyang City first, then to Feglai West City, and finally to Feglai City."
"I just didn't expect that people here at the South Gate would be so strict. I don't know what to do now."
"How about I introduce someone to a few guest officials?"
The store owner whispered.
"I only charge one tael of silver, but I don't guarantee that you can go out."
The four of them looked up at the store at the same time and frowned.
"who?"
Feng Jiuer asked softly.
The store owner took a deep breath and looked up.
"I can introduce you to a small official who is responsible for guarding the city, but I can't guarantee how much he will charge or whether you will be able to pass in the end."
"One tael of silver, that's fine."
Xing Zizhou nodded, "When can you arrange for him to meet me?"
"It's midnight tonight, okay?
Right in the store.”
The shopkeeper looked back at his small shop.
"He is on duty tonight, I asked him to come over."
"Um."
Xing Zizhou nodded, took out two taels of silver and put them on the table.
"Let's forget all the food together."
"yes."
The shopkeeper smiled and put away the money.
The four of them chatted for a while, and then Feng Jiuer and Qiao Mu left first.
They didn't go anywhere, but went back to pick up Feng Li and Jian Yi and went to Fenglan Inn.
For the time being, the biggest possibility is still here, wait for the news.
At noon the next day, when Feng Jiuer and the four of them were having lunch, there was a knock on the door of the wing room.
"Girl, our boss is back, you can see him at any time."
Feng Jiuer raised her eyes and looked at the door and responded: "Okay, I'll change my clothes and come."
After burning incense, Feng Jiuer and Qiao Mu met with their boss.
In the private seat, the man sat with his back to the entrance.
There was only a pot of tea in front of him.
"Girl, this is our boss Yuan."
The shopkeeper waved his hand.
The man heard the sound and turned around.
He glanced at Feng Jiu'er and Qiao Mu and stood up.
"Nice to meet you! My surname is Yuan."
Feng Jiuer didn't expect that Boss Yuan was so young, tall, fair and flawless, with no beard at all.
His smile is like the sunshine outside, and he looks enthusiastic and sincere.
"Teacher Yuan, nice to meet you!"
Feng Jiuer stretched out her hand.
The two shook hands, and after Yuan also shook hands with Qiao Mu, the three of them sat down together.
"Boss Yuan, please take your time and chat!"
The shopkeeper nodded lightly, turned and left.
This is a corner of the third floor of the inn. After entering, there are several private seats, but there is no one else in the entire large room.
"Boss Yuan is very young. Are you twenty this year?"
Feng Jiuer asked with a smile.
"Twenty to two."
Someone from Yuan poured tea for both Feng Jiuer and Qiao Mu.
"Haha... That's really a boy who is a hero."
Feng Jiuer said.
Fortunately, their appearance does not make them look older.
Otherwise, it would be a bit like two old sisters and a little nanny.
