“Ah, I forgot to ask. What is your gender?”

Seeing the other person seriously asking about his gender, Sue Kirin almost missed it.

“Are you fooling me?”

“I didn’t fool you.”

“Then it is so obvious that you still ask? Didn’t it mean something!”

“no no no, there are many guys who like to pretend to be women.” The writer pointed to one of the records in the city entry record book and said, “Like this Young Master named’Ellen’, there are women’s clothes. Hobbies! How do I know if you are dressed as a woman? “

“You…” Sue Kirin took a few deep breaths, resisting the urge to punch the opponent in the face, “I’m a woman!” “

“Oh, girl…it seems to be the same. “

Then what are you asking? Sue Kirin’s eyes twitched.

“Oh, yes. Next time I ask what you want to answer, don’t have that many questions, there are too many people in the queue behind you, you are affecting others. “

After the penman said so, Sue Kirin heard all kinds of responses behind her, thinking she was wasting time. Sue Kirin even twitched the corners of her mouth.

“Okay Yes, pay for it. “

Next, he said an amount.

“Count you cruel! “

Sue Kirin fiercely took out his purse, took out a few coins, and paid the city gate tax. The penman counted the amount and confirmed that it was correct before ordering the gatekeeper to let it go.

“Let’s not see you again! “

Sue Kirin panting with rage throws such a sentence, immediately turned around, stepped out of the city for investigation, and set foot in the inner city of Chang’an for the first time.

“It sucks, then The guy must be sick…”

While complaining like this, Sue Kirin walked quickly to the city gate. The companions Qi Qiqi and Shui Yuner lined up behind Sue Kirin, and now it is their turn to accept the city Check.

Sue Kirin estimated that Qi Qiqi and Shui Yun’er would have to take a while to pass the review according to the bad personality of the official. She happened to see a big rock on the side of the road, so she simply Jump on the boulder and sit cross-legged.

Changan is prospering as always.

On the main road leading to the city gate, various carriages and donkeys full of goods are endless, and you can often see some Literati or knight-errant silhouette with weapons, civilians and peasants are naturally not a minority. It can be said that Three Sects are available.

In this case, there should be no shortage of imitate the dog. and steal chicken.

In fact, expression suspiciously observes passing pedestrians, and it is not difficult to see suspicious elements in the crowd when officers and soldiers approach. Many of them cannot be seen like thieves, crooks, robbers, etc. People who saw the light, maybe there were some killers among them.

Sue Kirin was waiting while several suspicious people noticed her. They observed the girl with harboring malicious intentions for a while, until Seeing the cyan long sword she placed next to her, I discouraged the unruly attempts.

In their dictionary, “knight-errant” is equivalent to “natural enemy”. Knight-errant is not only a martial artist, And most of them cherish the so-called chivalry, and they like to talk about “the heroes and justice” and target them who do not follow the rules of the king. However, when it comes to not abiding by the rules of the king, knight-errant itself is not much more convincing. .

Seeing the suspicious figure who was going to attack him, he showed a frustrated expression after discovering his identity as knight-errant. Sue Kirin found it funny from the bottom of his heart and giggled.

Compared with the elegant environment, Sue Kirin prefers lively places.

Because often in the noisy and chaotic city, many interesting things can be found, such as the various forms of society and people.

“As expected of Imperial Capital! “

As if replacing the depression in my heart, Sue Kirin took a deep breath. As a result, a fast horse ran past her, and the dust it raised made her cough again and again.

“Little Master, although it’s good to change the taste occasionally, but too much dust can be bad for your health. “

Shui Yun’er’s voice came from the side.

“en?”

Sue Kirin turned his head to look and saw that Sue Kirin had already passed into the city and checked Shui Yun Er bent his lips slightly into a “naughty” arc, and Ping Ping Tingting stood next to the big stone, holding a white horse in his hand.

“Hey, so fast. “

“Yes, they are all common problems, and the investigation is not strict. “

Shui Yun’er replied with a light smile. She put on a short white cloak, hiding her beautiful face in the shadow of her hood, with a little extravagance in the softness of her body His temperament is like everyone who can’t show his face casually. In order to match the identity of knight-errant, Shui Yun’er also holds a weapon on the water.

That is a pure white cross made by Li Wanting Knife.

The sheath and handle are all made of white wood. After being polished and polished, they are carved with patterns imitating the ripples of water. As for the blade, I don’t know what method Li Wanting used to make it appear. The color of silver and white, coupled with the technique pattern carved by Sue Kirin himself, the whole knife looks like an ingenious craft.

As for the white horse she is holding, it is the Heavenly Jade Palace for convenience. dísciple’s horses raised for walking. This time Sue Kirin’s three-person trip to Chang’an also used these horses. Luoyang is nearly 2,000 miles away from Chang’an, so they are naturally impossible to hike.

By the way, because of Sue Kirin doesn’t know how to ride a horse, so she rides Qiqiqi and Shui Yun’er’s “free horses” in turn.

“Yes, but when I came to Chang’an last time, those who were in charge of interrogation even had problems. Did not ask me? “

After telling the question in his heart, Sue Kirin lightly jumped off the boulder.

“The last time the little Master came to Imperial Capital, should it be at the admissions conference? “

Shui Yuner thought about it for a while, and finally asked.

“yes!”

Count this time, Sue Kirin I have only been to Imperial Capital twice.

“Xianyizhuang is located in the outer city of Imperial Capital, and the outer city can be said to be the outer area of ​​Imperial Capital. Naturally, the investigation force is much more relaxed. “

Another voice sounded——red’s voice.

Qi Qiqi did not know when she came behind Sue Kirin, intervened in the conversation between the two, and accepted Sue Yuner’s words Head.

She also wears a short cloak, and wears a hood to cover her face. But unlike Shui Yuner, Qi Qiqi’s cloak is dark red and looks quite conspicuous.

Nevertheless, Qi Qiqi’s cloak speaking from a certain perspective really weakens her sense of existence. If she exposes her appearance in public, it’s not just as conspicuous as that. To be more serious, even if it causes a commotion, Sue Kirin does not It feels strange.

“When we first entered Imperial Capital, wasn’t the check there also very loose? “

Qi Qiqi caressed her mount. The horse with red hair wailed “Xiao Xiao” with enjoyment. “en?” Sue Kirin thought for a while, “it seems to be so right. “

Hua Dynasty’s Imperial Capital Chang’an is divided into three areas, namely the inner city and the outer city of imperial city.

Needless to say, imperial city is the Imperial Palace. And the place where the great nobles lived. As for the inner city and the outer city, not at all, they have Commerce District and residential area respectively. The only difference between them is “value”.

The inner city, which is closer to the imperial city, has a higher status and value, and is a settlement of some higher status. Therefore, compared with the outer city, the inner city has stricter management regulations and natural security. Ok.

But everything is one and two sides.

The inner city is far less lively than the outer city. The famous east-west city and some brothel and other entertainment venues are located in the outer city. .

“The inner city is the core of the Imperial Capital, where the imperial city is located, even if it is the core of the Hua Dynasty. “

Qiqiqi stepped forward and glanced at Sue Kirin who was walking side by side with her.

“In short, this kind of second only to imperial city place, how to enter the city? Maybe not strict? No body search is already considered. “

“Qi elder sister is right. “Shui Yun’er, who followed behind the two, agreed, “It’s not strict anymore. “

Hey, do you still search? Sue Kirin felt sick and shivered involuntarily when thinking of the soldiers’ hands and feet on him.

“However, no problem. ? “

“What is it?” “

Seeing Qi Qiqi didn’t know, Sue Kirin raised the long sword in her hand.

Qi Qiqi gave a “um” and looked towards the crimson long sword in her hand for unknown reasons ─ ─Tian Li.

It seems that she still didn’t understand what she meant. Sue Kirin shook her nose.

“Why can weapons be brought in? “

Since the governance of the inner city is so strict, isn’t it generally forbidden to own weapons?

“This…it’s a bit troublesome to explain…”

Qi Qiqi showed a troubled expression. After she pressed her lips for a while, she explained with her voice:

“Hua Dynasty established the country by military force–hey, how do you say…? This Wu’ does not refer to military power, but refers to’martial artist’. The current royal family was originally a martial arts Aristocratic Family, and its power and scale are not even comparable to the current Five Great Sects. When the previous dynasty fell, foreigners attacked vigorously. “

Speaking of this, Qi Qiqi admires the other side of the sky. She not at all looked towards imperial city.

“In the current national crisis, they both contributed money and effort to establish a considerable degree The prestige, but also a lot of people’s hearts. After the demise of the previous dynasty, they still spared no effort to carry out the restoration activities. Finally, after twenty years of years, they established the current Chinese dynasty and became the Imperial Family. “

Qiqiqi pulled her gaze back and moved it to Sue Kirin.

“So, do you understand?” “

“Uh… I understand it roughly. “

Sue Kirin stared at the toes and sorted the received information in her mind. After a while, she asked tentatively:

“So, because of the origin, the royal Are you friendly to martial artists? “

“That’s it! “

This is a bit different from my own perception… Sue Kirin thought of the soldiers who pretended to be arrested, and the Zhenbei Army who trespassed at Heavenly Jade Palace a few days ago. They treated the martial arts Sect. No matter how you look at it, it’s not friendly.

“It’s a little hard to imagine…As far as I know, the various sects of martial arts should be at odds with the Imperial Court? “

Listening to Sue Kirin’s question, Qi Qiqi immediately frowned unhappily.

As a result, Shui Yuner took over the explanation. She sighed first, and then she became unhappy. Say:

“Little Master, it was five years ago. “

“The thorn of the emperor?” “

As soon as Sue Kirin turned his head, he saw Shui Yun’er sadly nodded.

“So…”

Sue Kirin finally understood. To put it plainly It’s the assassination of the emperor that caused the imperial court and the various sects of the martial arts to deteriorate and even face a break.

Anyone who encounters an assassination will be angry–even the emperor is no exception, even more How the assassin is still the martial arts person he has always treated kindly.

“Where is the murderer? Is it the Sect guy? “

Sue Kirin asked unhappily, wanting to know who the black sheep was last name.

Result──

“I don’t know. . Qi Qiqi shook her head, “I still don’t know so far. The Imperial Court has not announced who did it, and no one has come out to admit responsibility. “

“How is it possible? “

Qiqiqi did not answer, she just shook the head.

Really? Sue Kirin’s eyes had this question in her eyes, and Shui Yuner just smiled in trouble and answered “I don’t know either.”

“Hey, hey, that’s not just how you make up the Imperial Court? “

After all, there is no evidence! Sue Kirin looked back and forth at Qi Qiqi and Shui Yun’er in amazement.

“That’s right…” Qi Qiqi sighed,” But even how we question it is just in vain. “

Sue Kirin reflexively asked:

“Why? “

“Whether it is the king’s earth and the shore of the earth, it’s the king’s minister in the world.” “

Qiqiqi turned to face Sue Kirin’s gaze.

In her bright red eyes──

“Kirin, do you know?” “

There is a deep and endless sadness and sadness.

“──We all belong to the entire world. “

The depressed voice is very small, but it has inexplicable penetration.

Qiqiqi’s words as easy as blowing off dust penetrate Sue Kirin’s heart.

The sweet and sour taste spreads in the mouth, and the cold sensation of the tongue spreads slowly.

The tiredness accumulated for several days of long-distance pulling is relieved. Sue Kirin felt refreshed for a while.

“Where shall we go next? “

After taking another bite of the ice candied fruit stick bought from the roadside stall, she tilted her head towards Qi Qiqi, who was holding a pile of snacks and stuffing her mouth.

In order to free her hands, Qi Qiqi handed the mount to Shui Yun’er to hold her, but the saber, who had not left her body during the whole journey, did not know where she had received it.

“Go to Xiaoqing’s house ? “

Hearing Sue Kirin’s question, Qi Qiqi, who just brought a piece of mung bean cold cake to her red lips, stopped.

“Gong Family? why? “

Sue Kirin was unsteady and almost fell directly to the ground.

“What Yonzi? Sue Kirin stopped and looked dumbfounded at Qi Qiqi who was chewing food, “Aren’t we here to find Xiaoqing?” “

Perhaps seeing Qi Qiqi chewing something, Shui Yuner replied on her behalf:

“I think Qi elder sister is going to find Inn first, right?” “After speaking, Shui Yuner Qi Qiqi voted “Is that right?” “Look at.

After swallowing the pastry, Qi Qiqi stuffed Sue Kirin with everything on her hand, then took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped her mouth. Sue Kirin suddenly noticed Qi Qiqi wiped it away He didn’t wipe away the sugar granules sticking to the corners of his mouth, so he reached out to help the opponent flick away.

“Shui younger sister, how smart! “

Shui Yun’er deliberately imitated Sue Kirin’s reaction, and proudly raised her chest “hmph hum” twice. Qi Qiqi pu chi smiled and commented that “it looks like”.

” Where did you get your spare time…”

Watching them sing and make a peace, Sue Kirin rolled his eyes helplessly.

“Little Qi, you were not in a hurry two days earlier. Is it? “

“Hate, of course I am in a hurry! “

The reaction from shame to anger-Sue Kirin originally thought so. As a result, in the next second, she heard Qi Qiqi whisper:

“I just want to make myself optimistic that’s all. “

Qiqiqi’s voice lost her consistent imposing manner and became weaker. Her bright red eyes were much dimmed and cast a shadow.

Perhaps, she was just laughing hard. ?──No, I should be deceiving myself and talents!
