The two crazy students got excited and started shaking their heads in great joy. Later, they almost even talked about beheading.
Jia Fei frowned and said nothing, while Cheng Yu shook his head helplessly and smiled:
"Is what you two just said true?"
"It's not false! Of course it's not false!"
When the two crazy students saw that Cheng Yu didn't believe it, their faces turned red and they rubbed their necks and said stubbornly.
"Okay! Can you say what you just said again later?"
After Cheng Yu finished speaking, he raised his hand and pointed behind the two mad students.
"What's the harm in saying it again...Oh my mother!"
The two crazy students spoke harshly, while looking back, they immediately covered their mouths and noses, and even the blush on their faces faded away in fear.
"Go quickly! Go quickly!"
The two crazy students suddenly lost their drunkenness and stopped staggering in their steps. They turned around and jumped into a side road and ran away.
"Everyone, go home! Go home! Inner city curfew!"
"Anyone who goes out without permission after returning home will have no eyes for his axe!"
Rows of golden-armored warriors were about to clear the place and rushed towards them, along with the crowds of people who had been driven away.
Cheng Yu's Yuanshen had returned to his original position as a sparrow, and sent a message to the cat demon to let him blend in with the crowd and head towards Prince Yu's Mansion.
'Prince Yu's Mansion? Brother Cheng, the little princess of Prince Yu's Mansion is not here, do you and I still need to go to this place?'
Cheng Yu heard that there seemed to be a hint of joking in the cat demon's question, and he immediately laughed and said:
"Of course I want to go. I always look a little strange at Prince Yu's Mansion."
He glanced at the bag of tricks on Jia Fei's chest and continued:
"It stands to reason that this exquisite dice has a strong aura of wood. If it were in the palace, you and I would be able to detect it, unless..."
"Unless... there is a barrier to protect the aura?"
The cat demon followed up and asked.
Cheng Yu nodded lightly first, then shook his head slightly and said:
"But my consciousness didn't detect the existence of any barrier in Prince Yu's palace, so I felt a little strange, so I asked the old man just now to find out. But just in case, I'd like to return to my true form first.
Fly around the palace, and wait for me outside the palace wall later. Just don’t leave my barrier."
After Jia Fei heard this, he hesitated to speak, but finally nodded slightly.
"Pullingleng!"
Cheng Yu spread his wings and flew to a high place, and saw a magnificent group of golden glazed tile buildings in front of him.
The entire palace occupies a large area, but neither the front yard nor the back yard is lively. I think it's because Prince Yu and his family have all gone to the other gardens.
Cheng Yu was about to swoop down when he suddenly heard someone shouting among the noisy people behind him, and the shout was very familiar:
"Hey! My big horn! Seeing you is a blessing to me!"
Isn't this the voice of the old Shouxi class leader? Why is he here?
Without thinking, he hurriedly spun in the air, twisted his body and looked back down.
Not far behind him, he saw the golden-armored warriors and the soldiers from the Military and Horse Division, one behind the other, forming a two-character long snake formation and driving people away from the imperial street. However, there was a gap next to Jia Fei, and several people were still parked there.
A carriage, guarded by several golden-armored cavalry on each side of the carriage.
Jia Fei was on a high step by the side of the road. There was a person kneeling in front of him. Looking down, he saw that it was the leader of the birthday party who loved money as much as life. Behind the leader, there was a man in white clothes.
Handsome young man.
Jinwuwei!
'Don't panic! I have turned around and you are still within my barrier.'
Cheng Yu quietly landed on the eaves next to him and sent a message to Jia Fei.
'Luckily you didn't go far! Not long after you walked away, I saw how crowded the street was. I wanted to sneak up to my house quietly, but I didn't expect that I heard someone calling me as soon as I took two steps. It turned out to be the leader of the group.
When he saw me in the car, he rolled out of the car and crawled to the ground.
I didn't expect to meet people from the Shouxi Class here, and there were Jinwu Guards next to them. Look at the leading young man in white. Isn't that the one who was following me before? Could it be that he was escorting the Shouxi Class to look for me?
?'
'No, if they are specifically looking for you, they won't just send a young man from the Internal Security Department and a few golden-armored warriors from the External Security Department.'
After Cheng Yu finished speaking, Jiafei finally felt at ease. At this time, the school captain in white clothes also came up to him. After looking Jiafei up and down, he said with a "Pah!" and clasped his fists in salute:
"Senior brother, you are polite. I have been ordered to invite my senior brother and the birthday party to the concert hall. I don't want to think that my senior brother has left the class, so I have to invite the theater troupe first. Fortunately, I met my senior brother here by chance. If my senior brother still has free time, can you come with me to celebrate my birthday?"
Let's go together with the class to deal with it? The palace has called on senior brother to ask for his hard work."
When Jia Fei heard that the other person was talking about his senior brother, he felt much relieved. It seemed that the Jinwu Guards really thought that he had come down from Qianxia Mountain.
He turned around and looked at the hopeful eyes of the old stage manager next to him, and then looked at the carriages behind him. Looking through the thin curtain, he saw that the carriages were full of acquaintances from the troupe.
Even a few kids from the class were brought along, and in the last two cars there were stacks of large and small boxes. It was obvious that the entire Shouxi class had been brought over.
"Dawu...uh huh!"
In the car behind, the youngest Erbazi was lying on the car window and saw Jia Fei. As soon as he was halfway shouting, his mouth and nose were covered by the adults around him and he was carried back to the car.
Under this situation, Jia Fei couldn't help but hesitate.
'How to answer him?'
The cat demon returned the greeting to Captain Jinwu in white and sent a message to Cheng Yu for advice.
'Ask him which royal palace he belongs to.'
"May I ask which palace's hall it is from?"
"Prince Yu's Mansion."
Prince Yu’s Mansion again?
No, Prince Yu's family has already gone to Xishan Villa, and the palace is empty. Why does the captain still escort everyone towards Prince Yu's mansion?
Cheng Yu conveyed his doubts to Jia Fei, and Jia Fei asked directly to the junior captain:
"Where are you going to hold a meeting?"
"I will take my orders to bring the birthday party to Prince Yu's residence."
"But as far as I know, Prince Yu's family is not in the palace at the moment. Why did they bring the theater troupe to the palace?"
The captain in white raised his hands and saluted:
"I don't know this. I'm just following orders. It's just because before... I passed by Zhuangzi where the Shouxi Class is located, so this errand was assigned to me."
Jia Fei was silent when he heard this, but at this moment he received another message from Cheng Yu:
'In that case, let's just sneak into the palace with the troupe. With my barrier there, it won't hurt. It just so happens that you and I can also visit the palace at night.'
The cat demon nodded slightly and agreed to go with the troupe.
When the captain in white heard this, his face seemed expressionless, but in fact, he secretly spoke softly.
The troupe leader next to him was even more relieved. He jumped up and bowed deeply to Jia Fei. Then he nodded and bowed and respectfully asked Jia Fei to get into the first carriage. However, he did not dare to follow.
Instead, he ran to the second car behind him.
Next to the handlebar of the second car sat a middle-aged man with a white face and no beard. When he saw the class leader running to his car, he snorted disdainfully:
"Hmph! Let's go quickly. None of us can afford to miss our errand!"
The man kept urging, his voice was sharp and thin, he must be the eunuch in charge of the palace.
"drive!"
The handlebar-type clothes of each car were also in the official style. At this time, they were approaching the palace, so they did not dare to wave their whips and shout loudly, and could only pull the reins.
The captain in white clothes sat back next to the handlebar of the first car, but no one noticed that a little sparrow had already stood on the roof of the car, moving steadily forward as the car swayed.
The motorcade was guarded by Jinwu Guards, so it was naturally not afraid of the curfew. At this time, the road had been cleared. The first car drove to the North Street intersection, turned a corner, and stopped at the side gate of the palace.
Opposite the palace is a row of private houses, including several front rooms, but they are all covered with boards. Only a little dim light shines through the gaps between the boards, and there are a few eyes stuck behind the door panels, looking out.
Cheng Yu listened carefully and heard a faint sound of punches and orders coming from the gatehouse at the side door of the palace. He knew that it must be the gatekeeper who was drinking quietly in the gatehouse.
"Hey! I mean, are all the people inside dead? Can't you hear anyone coming from outside?"
As soon as the motorcade stopped, the eunuch in the second car shouted through the door at the top of his lungs.
When the few boys inside the door heard the shrill and harsh shouts outside, they immediately left their drinking tables and hurried out of the door. When they saw the eunuch sitting in the second car, they rushed up to him one by one, nodded and knelt down to greet him.
Two of them looked like they were the leaders. They pushed aside the other servants and stepped forward. One by one, they helped the eunuch out of the car, and they didn't let him go. They wanted to lift him up and walk.
"Hmph! You guys, you must be playing skating and drinking in the house again. Look, our family will definitely report it to the boss of the front office tomorrow and reward you with a meal!"
The eunuch raised his orchid finger and complained, while driving away the boys who were surrounding him. He turned around and put on a smiling face, and bowed to the white-clothed captain next to him:
"With Lieutenant Lao accompanying our family on this errand, it can be regarded as a errand when we arrive at the palace."
The captain in white said politely, took out a gold medal from his arms and handed it to the eunuch. He turned around and saluted Jia Fei with his fists. After saying goodbye, he led a group of golden armored warriors towards the palace.
When the eunuch saw Captain Jin Wu calling Jia Fei his senior brother, he couldn't help but look at him twice.
The servants didn't know the reason, so when they saw Jin Wu's guards walking away, they gathered around the eunuch again and rushed to help him back to the house.
"Eunuch Zheng is busy. You, the old man, have just returned to the palace so late. I heard that something happened at the Martial Temple. The Imperial Street outside has been cleared. Have you ever stopped by to take a look at the excitement?"
One of the boys squeezed his way to the front of the crowd and asked the eunuch with a smile.
"Nonsence!"
When the eunuch heard this, he spat in the other person's face. At the same time, he reached out and threw away the arm that was supporting him, kicked him in the buttocks and cursed:
"Look at your mother's butt! Open your dog eyes and look at so many big cars following behind you. Grandpa, I haven't even had dinner, so how can I have time to watch the excitement... Phew!"
The eunuch was so angry that he hit, cursed and panted, and even his fair face turned red and warm.
A steward next to him hurriedly rushed over to help the eunuch, caressing the eunuch's chest to help him breathe, and said with a smile:
"That guy is indeed blind and ignorant. Don't be as ignorant as his little piggy dog. You have really worked hard on this trip. Come and have a glass of cold wine to calm down your anger."
Eunuch Zheng curled his lips repeatedly when he heard this, and still cursed the boy, but his face finally relaxed, and he finally waved his hands with orchid fingers raised:
"I can't wait! I can't wait! We still have to go to the harem to tell Miss Yun'er about our errands.
Hey! So, please help find a place for the theater troupe to be accommodated. I’ll go inside first to answer the question."
After the eunuch finished speaking, he was about to leave. Another steward grabbed his sleeve, pulled him aside and asked in a low voice:
"Eunuch, didn't the troupe in the mansion follow the prince and the others out of the city? Why did they get dragged back again?"
Eunuch Zheng had a rather contemptuous look on his face when he heard this. He pointed to the convoy behind him and said:
"Open your eyes and take a look. Is this the theater troupe in our house?"
Hearing this, the steward raised the lantern higher and took a closer look. He saw that most of them were dressed in country clothes. Sure enough, they were not members of his own family.
Then he pulled Eunuch Zheng and whispered:
"We don't have our own theater troupe in our house, why do we bother you, old man, to drive all the way to bring the theater troupe in from outside the city?"
When Eunuch Zheng heard that the other party was inquiring about the details, he sneered but said nothing. He only stared at the other party's hands for a few times. The person in charge understood immediately, but begged with a bitter face:
"I lost several games in a row a while ago, which caused a lot of famine. I am very short on money right now, so hurry up tomorrow! I will be filial to my father-in-law when I have enough money tomorrow. Hey! Xiaoliu, hurry up and bring some sweet fruits to your father-in-law."
Eunuch Zheng wrinkled his face when he heard this, and said in a sour voice:
"Don't bother me! Our family can't bear your moldy fruits."
After finishing speaking, he glanced at the steward again, pretended to sigh and whispered:
"Hey! What's the origin of a grass-roots group in the countryside? This is not some kind of turmoil where they sang "Lao Shizi" two days ago. They also sang some famous songs, and those who were named had to be invited to hold a meeting. How can you
You have to keep an eye on me, maybe the prince will return to his residence to hold a meeting in two days, so I will go back to my errands first.
Hey! You guys, place all the actors from the Shouxi troupe in the small courtyard to the east of the Qianfu stage, and send a few more people to watch over me. If you let these country people walk around and dirty the front
Fuyuanzi, be careful of the dog heads on your necks."
When the steward heard this, he nodded his head in agreement. Eunuch Zheng turned to look at Jia Fei one more time, said nothing, lifted up his sleeves and hurried to the house. The remaining servants shouted to everyone in the birthday party to get out of the car and unload their work.
After a period of commotion, more than a dozen people from the Shouxi class were enclosed in a small enclosed courtyard.
The youngest Erwazi cried out that he was hungry, and the other children also shouted. Jiafei squatted down and hugged Erwazi, took out some eating cakes from the brocade bag, and in a blink of an eye, he was surrounded by all the children.
live.
The concierge then entered the courtyard with a few boys, but he did not see Jia Fei among the children. He only looked at the dozens of old and young people in the courtyard who were disheveled, and the various gongs and drums placed on the ground were in dilapidated condition.
His eyes were full of disgust, and he didn't bother to ask them if they had eaten dinner. He just repeatedly scolded them for strictly prohibiting fireworks and candles in the courtyard, and asked the servant to leave an old shabby porridge and a wooden bucket of water in the corner, and then he led his men to walk away.
And go.
"Clang!"
The courtyard door was locked, and the footsteps outside the courtyard gradually faded away. Only two young men were left guarding the door, sitting on the ground chatting in low voices about the civil and military temples just now.
