Outside the east gate of Kyoto, many carriages came and went after noon.

Fu Zichen's car blended in with the crowds of passersby, not conspicuous and very low-key.

Yu Ran was sitting in the carriage, her mind was confused, so she raised the curtains to look at the sky outside.

In the blue sky, they saw a tall eagle and a small blackbird, one behind the other, hovering on the roof of their carriage.

Ji Cha saw that Yuran still looked concerned, so he patted her hand and said casually: "Don't think about it. They all said that they were wrong."

Yuran was still confused: "But I clearly feel that Pearl has died, how could it be..."

"Then it's not that it died." Ji Cha said casually: "You fed it so much food, maybe it choked. If it wasn't dead, you just held it for a short while, how could you conclude that it must have died? Now? The fact that it's still fine means that it's fine at all, so don't worry about it."

Pearl was eating snacks before, and suddenly fell down in mid-air, and then lost all breath. Before anyone could react, not long after the eagle picked up Pearl on the roof, Pearl flew down again alive and kicking.

Yuran vaguely remembered that something like this had happened before, but he really couldn't understand the principle of it. Could it be that he was mistaken?

I got it wrong before, but I got it wrong now?

The Pearl incident was like a small episode. Except for Yu Ran who was particularly surprised, Ji Cha and Fu Zichen didn't feel much at all.

Fu Zichen has known Pearl for many years, but he has another opinion: "This little black bird is very bad. Maybe he pretended to be dead on purpose to trick you. He used to be naughty and mischievous with Xiao Li."

Master Fu's words are reasonable and well-founded. Even if Yuran doubts it again, he can only give up on it.

At this time, there was a lot of people near the city gate, and everyone lined up to enter and exit the city. When Fu Zichen and the others arrived, it was Fu Zichen's carriage that entered the city, and Ji Chayuran's carriage, because there was another car in the middle. , so we have to enter the city late.

After Fu Zichen's car entered, he originally thought that the car in front of him would pass quickly, but he didn't know that the car in front of him was actually stopped.

Yu Ran and Ji Cha waited for a long time. Seeing that the traffic was still moving, Ji Cha simply jumped out of the car to take a look.

Ji Cha walked to the gate of the city and saw that the owner of the car in front of them was being investigated by the guards. He was a gray-haired old man, and there were several tall young men accompanying the old man, who seemed to be bodyguards.

The old man was defending himself: "I told you that I was going to the city to visit relatives, Lu Yin? Without Lu Yin, our Lu Yin was lost at sea. No, I am either a permanent resident or visiting relatives. I am not some unknown person. Weapons ? Didn’t you hear what I just said? These friends of mine are soldiers at the border. What’s wrong with them carrying weapons? Have you heard of the Haidong Army? They were beaten by the rebels before. The camp was burned down, and those who are still alive have not yet registered their names. Others are staying in the East China Sea, waiting for the court to verify. These brothers accompanied me to Beijing because they were worried that I would be unsafe on the road. When they were killed You almost died, why are you carrying your household registration document with you? Hey, you young man, how many times do you want me to tell you that I am not a suspicious person? What do you mean, the emperor ordered a strict investigation on people entering and leaving the city? Just tell me that I am visiting relatives. Yes, they sent me to the city and left as soon as I found my home. Why are you so stubborn and you always refuse to listen!"

The old man was intercepted because he had no road guide or household registration certificate, and he was accompanied by several tall and armed guards.

Recently, the new emperor ascended the throne, and Kyoto is also the capital. People coming and going must be strictly reviewed, and the guards who protect the city are also responsible. However, the old man feels that he has been wronged, so the two parties have been arguing.

Seeing that the fuss like this was not going to work anymore, Ji Cha couldn't help but urge: "Old man, would you please give way first and let those behind us pass first?"

The white-haired old man looked back at Ji Cha and glared: "They blocked me here, not you. Go tell them!"

Ji Cha was helpless and went to see the guards again.

The guards were also in a dilemma. The old man was very old and couldn't force him. He couldn't remand him just when he said he was going to be detained, and he couldn't throw him away just when he said he was going to be detained. He had to persuade him hard, but the old man just refused to listen, so they decided to do it. Things come to a head and one's hands are tied.

In the end, the city guard had no choice but to persuade him: "Old man, please move the car and let the back pass first. I will report it to the boss and ask our stewards to handle your special situation, okay?"

Seeing that this was probably the only way, the white-haired old man held his breath, reluctantly said "yes" and waved to his guards to move the car away.

As soon as the car moved away, Yuran, who had been paying attention to the front, saw the white-haired old man under the city gate who had an upright body and was more energetic than the young man.

Yu Ran was so frightened that he thought he had seen it wrong. He wiped his eyes violently and wiped them several times before stumbling out of the car and shouting at the stunned people in front of him: "Master, Master, Master?"

Ji Cha looked at Yuran in surprise.

Yuran had already rushed forward, grabbing the white-haired old man, going back and forth, looking up and down: "Master, it's really you, Master, you...you..."

Zhu Wensong didn't expect to see his little apprentice here. He was also very surprised, his eyes lit up, and he said: "You, you..." As soon as he opened his mouth, he swallowed back the sound behind him. Some things in the room are not allowed to be heard by outsiders.

Yu Ran was surprised to meet her master. Her master was stopped by the Kyoto guards. Yu Ran had to accompany her master. She asked Ji Cha to follow Fu Zichen into the city first. She and her master would go back to find them.

Fu Zichen waited for a long time but did not see Yu Ran and Ji Cha enter the city. He also came out and found that there was such an episode. He started to talk with the city guards.

Fu Zichen did not disclose his identity. He was a governor of Qingzhou. It was not easy for him to speak in Kyoto. Moreover, the emperor changed his ministers. Now the new emperor has ascended the throne. The new emperor requires strict inspection of people entering and leaving the city. If the court officials abuse their power for personal gain, they will be accused.

Fu Zichen discussed with the city guards, and persuaded them with emotion and reason. He said that the old man was old. Could he still do something treasonous? The city guards probably thought that what he said was reasonable, but the old man had no killing power. What about his guards with weapons?

Finally, it was agreed that if they were allowed to go, the old man could enter the city alone, but others could not enter without household registration documents to prove their identity.

The brothers of the Haidong Army were also sensible. When they saw that Mr. Zhu had met an acquaintance, they took the initiative to say that they would not enter the city, and would hand Mr. Zhu over to Fu Zichen and Yu Ran, and they would return directly to Donghai.

Zhu Wensong felt particularly bad. This time when he went to Beijing, he brought seven carriages of things, and took everything that could be taken on the boat. The Haidong Army helped him carry all the way, and when they arrived at the city gate, they didn't even invite him in for a drink of water, and they wanted to drive him away. How embarrassing.
