Jilin ignored Ruan Xingshu's words, bypassed Ruan Xingshu, and walked towards the person lying in the corner.

Ruan Xingshu took out a bun from the paper bag, and followed Jilin while holding it in his mouth.

When Ruan Xingshu and Jilin walked to the wall, the lying person moved.

The man propped his hands on the ground and sat up. He was half leaning against the wall. His original face was covered by his messy hair and beard, making him look very decadent and sloppy.

The man lazily leaned against the wall, and said to Ruan Xingshu and Jilin, "Thank you."

It seemed that he hadn't spoken to anyone for a long time, his voice was hoarse and hoarse, and it sounded weird to his ears.

Ruan Xingshu looked at the man with some surprise: "So you are not stupid."

The man laughed softly, without any intention of explaining, he noticed the porridge bowl and buns beside him from the corner of his eyes, and asked, "You invited me?"

Although it was a question, the tone of voice was very straight, obviously he already had an answer in his heart.

Ruan Xingshu followed the man's line of sight, and saw a few dirty stones falling into the porridge bowl, and a few buns were also soiled.

Ruan Xingshu didn't answer the man's question, but said: "The food is dirty, why don't you sit with us in the store and order another one."

The man had already picked up the porridge bowl, and he didn't dislike the stones falling into it, so he drank a few sips before saying: "No, it's good like this."

The man drank the porridge, then stretched out his dirty fingers to grab the buns and started to eat them.

Ruan Xingshu carefully looked at the person in front of him. The robe on that person was worn out. It had been worn for a long time, and the original color could no longer be seen.

The man's bony arms were exposed under the rolled-up cuffs, and the thinness was a bit scary.

Ruan Xingshu looked away lightly, and handed over the paper bag in his hand.

The man wasn't polite to him either, just took it and ate it.

Finally the man had enough to eat and drink, put the bowl aside, and said to Ruan Xingshu, Ji Lin: "Thank you for your hospitality, I don't want to eat your food for nothing, just ask for anything."

What this man said was actually a bit ridiculous. He was so poor that even a child of a few years old could bully him.

On the other hand, Ruan Xingshu and Jilin were well-dressed and handsome, they looked like extraordinary people.

However, no matter whether it was Ruan Xingshu or Ji Lin, after hearing what this person said, there was no look of ridicule or contempt on their faces.

This person has fallen so far, but he is not frightened or flattered by others' favors, but chooses to use his own actions to "pay" to deduct the meal fee.

How can such a person not feel good.

Ruan Xingshu smiled at the person sitting by the wall: "Don't talk about it, I really want to ask you something."

Hearing Ruan Xingshu's words, the man casually picked up the scattered pebbles and threw them at Ruan Xingshu: "Brat, who are you calling me?"

In fact, it's no wonder that Ruan Xingshu, this man is unkempt, has a lot of beard, and his voice is extremely hoarse, he looks like a very old man.

Naturally, the stone thrown by the man didn't hit Ruan Xingshu, it flew past him and rolled around on the ground for a few times before stopping.

Ruan Xingshu was not annoyed either, and said with a smile, "With your voice and your appearance, you must be in your 40s. It's not an exaggeration for me to call you uncle."

The man said angrily: "Your uncle, I am not yet 30 years old."

Ruan Xingshu made a surprised expression, he bumped into Jilin who was beside him, and whispered in a low voice: "Junior brother, he said that he is under 30 years old, do you believe it?"

Jilin pushed Ruan Xingshu aside to prevent him from getting so close to him.

Jilin said to the person leaning against the wall: "Brother, you have lived in Kyoto for a long time, so you must be very familiar with the affairs of Kyoto. We would like to ask you for some advice."

The proprietress of the bun shop said that this person has been stupid for many years, which means that this person has been in the capital for a long time.

And judging from his words and deeds, not only is this person not stupid, he should also be extraordinary.

It's just that he doesn't know why he ruined himself so far, but since people want it, they can't say anything.

The man had a good impression of Ji Lin, and said with a smile: "It's not worth asking for advice, what do you want to know, young master?"

Ruan Xingshu intervened between the two, "This is not a place to talk, why don't we go to another place."

The sun is getting higher and higher, and the heat will rise.

Ruan Xingshu, Jilin and the others found a cool place by the moat to sit, and the cool breeze came slowly, carrying water vapor, which was very refreshing.

The man sat cross-legged on the ground, raised his chin at Jilin: "Young master, tell me."

Jilin didn't beat around the bush, and said directly: "Is there something unusual in Kyoto recently?"

The man smiled and asked, "What is abnormal?"

Ruan Xingshu folded his arms and leaned against a willow tree, he held a willow leaf in his mouth, and said softly: "We came all the way, and heard that the imperial court called the officials' children to the imperial court, saying that they wanted to cultivate them, is there such a thing? "

The man sneered, and replied, "There is indeed such a thing."

Ruan Xingshu took out the willow leaves from his mouth and asked suspiciously, "Master, what are you laughing at?"

"Who are you calling me, I'll find you." The man said something to Ruan Xingshu, and then he said slowly, "I thought it was funny, so I laughed."

Ruan Xingshu approached with a smile: "Then—is our question funny, or the court's word 'cultivation' funny?"

The man looked at Ruan Xingshu with great interest, and said after a while: "If I'm not mistaken, you should be cultivators. The little dolls from some family came to the capital before the smell of milk disappeared. Inquiring about the affairs of the palace, is life too long?"

Ruan Xingshu stood up straight, straightened his clothes, and said, "Nine Heavens Cloud Gate, Ruan Xingshu."

"Your surname is Ruan?" The man asked, "What is the relationship between the Ruan family of Cangyou Island and you?"

"It doesn't matter." Ruan Xingshu said with a smile on his face, "We used to be one family about 500 years ago."

The man made a cut and said: "My surname is Fu, Fu Fanlang." He turned to Jilin as he spoke.

Ji Lin cupped his hands at him: "Nine Heavens Cloud Gate, Ji Lin."

Fu Fanlang narrowed his eyes: "That season? The season of seasons..."

Jilin shook his head, looked into Fu Fanlang's eyes and said, "Ji Xue is the first to clear the sky."

Fu Fanlang was startled, "Ji" is the country's surname.

Is the boy in front of him a member of the royal family?

Fu Fanlang couldn't see anything on his face - his hair and beard were all over his face, it was actually quite difficult to see.

Fu Fanlang's eyes fell on Ji Lin, his mind turned quickly, and soon a bright light flashed in his eyes.

I remembered!

Five years ago, the ten-year-old fourth prince of Canglanzhou was sent to Ziyang Mountain. He hadn't heard from him for many years, but he came back this year.

Seeing Fu Fanlang staring straight at Jilin, Ruan Xingshu stepped between the two of them and said, "Hey, big brother, what are you looking at, it's weird."

Fu Fanlang came back to his senses, and suddenly wanted to drink, he said to Ruan Xingshu, "Is there any wine?"

Ruan Xingshu blinked, then smiled and said, "Of course there are." As he spoke, he took out a jug of wine from behind as if conjuring.

Fu Fanlang is also a practitioner, so he naturally knew that the wine in Ruan Xingshu's hand was taken out of the storage ring, so he didn't show any surprise.

Fu Fanlang took the jug and drank most of it in one go. He let out a big breath and said with a smile, "Good wine, refreshing!"

Ruan Xingshu was not without pride: "Of course, this is fine wine brewed from the spring of Ziyang Mountain, so the taste is naturally good."

Fu Fanlang held the jug with his dirty fingers. He looked at Ruan Xingshu, then at Jilin, and finally said to Jilin, "Your surname is Ji."

Jilin nodded.

Since he announced his name, he had no intention of concealing his identity.

Fu Fanlang continued: "Although I don't like members of the royal family, for the sake of breakfast and wine, I might as well tell you a piece of news."

Ji Lin said seriously: "Master Fu, please tell me."

"Young Master..." Fu Fanlang smiled, "It's been a long time since anyone called me that."

Fu Fanlang rushed to Ruan Xingshu, and Jilin hooked his fingers: "Come closer."

Ruan Xingshu said: "It's so mysterious." But he still followed his advice.

Fu Fanlang glanced across the faces of Ruan Xingshu and Jilin, and said very slowly: "If I expected it right, Shen Ke is in the palace now."

After hearing Fu Fanlang's words, the expressions of Ji Lin and Ruan Xingshu changed slightly.

Jilin said: "Mr. Fu has a basis for saying this."

Fu Fanlang backed away calmly, leaned against the willow tree, and said, "No, just guessing."

This means that it is clear that you believe it or not, and you will be defeated if you don’t believe it.

Jilin and Ruan Xingshu exchanged glances. Although Fu Fanlang looked downcast, judging from his aura, it was clear that he was also a practitioner.

He has been in the capital for many years, so he should have his own connections, and there is no need for him to deceive them.

Ji Lin frowned, this Shen Ke is so bold, he dared to enter the court, isn't he afraid of being devoured by people who hate him.

wrong.

Jilin suddenly thought of those officials' children who had been gathered together, and him who was called into the palace urgently.

Emperor, no, what is Shen Ke trying to do?

Shen Keruo is really in the palace at this moment, but the news has not been spread. The peaceful and peaceful scene in the capital means that the royal family has once again succumbed to the demons?

Or, Shen Ke had already killed the emperor and replaced him?

No, according to Shenke's vicious nature, he probably wouldn't do this. What he is best at is playing with people's hearts and appreciating the opponent's fear and despair.

So are these teenagers who entered the palace the first batch of people to be sacrificed?

Thinking of this, Jilin couldn't help but feel chills down his spine.

Ruan Xingshu obviously also thought of this, and the faces of the two became very ugly.

Fu Fanlang watched Ruan Xingshu and Jilin change faces with satisfaction, he shook his head lightly, a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes that he didn't even realize.

Fu Fanlang swallowed a sip of wine slowly, rushed to Ruan Xingshu, Jilin waved his hand and said, "Go back, go back and forth from wherever you came from, never step into the palace."

There was deathly silence around, and after an unknown amount of time, Jilin clasped his fists at Fu Fanlang: "Thank you for letting me know."

Looking at Ruan Xingshu again: "Let's go."

Ruan Xingshu nodded, took out a bag of broken silver from his bosom and placed it on the ground in front of Fu Fanlang.

Fu Fanlang said: "What are you doing? Take it away, I'm just using this news to exchange some food and drink with you."

Ruan Xingshu smiled and said, "Steamed stuffed buns and wine are not enough to cover such big news."

He cupped his fists at Fu Fanlang: "There will be a period later, if there is a chance next time, I will come to drink with you again."

Fu Fanlang didn't understand what Ruan Xingshu meant at first, but when he saw the direction Jilin and Ruan Xingshu were heading, his face changed slightly.

That is the direction where the palace is located.

They are going to the palace.

An eager look flashed across Fu Fanlang's face. Although he didn't like people in the imperial court, he liked these two young men very much.

Fu Fanlang shouted in a low voice: "Just with you two little dolls, what can you do after entering the palace!"

It's just to die.

"There's a lot we can do." Hearing Fu Fanlang's words, Ruan Xingshu turned around and showed him a bright smile: "For example, turn him upside down."
