Hey!How dare you take me as a substitute

Seeing that the person who came was his father, Feng Qi dodged his eyes, feeling a little guilty.

So he quickly lowered his eyes, walked behind Heng Mingshi, and tried his best to act like a young master's entourage.

It's a pity that Heng Mingshi's small stature can't stand against Feng Qi's strong and tall body. When Feng Qi walked behind Heng Mingshi, it had no other purpose except to make Heng Mingshi shorter.

Heng Mingshi touched his bumped forehead, raised his head, and met the stern and stern face of Old General Feng.

To be honest, this is the first time Heng Mingshi sees Old General Feng from this angle. He usually looks at it from the top down, so no matter how strong and tall General Feng is, what Heng Mingshi sees is black and white. The top of the hair is adulterated, and from the current angle, it matches the nostrils of Old General Feng's two black shuttles.

Heng Mingshi resisted the urge to take a pair of scissors to cut off the two or three particularly prominent nose hairs of Old General Feng, walked aside with a frown, and said in a deliberately changed voice: "The grass people did not intend to offend the general, and I hope the general will forgive me. "

Heng Mingshi didn't want to run into acquaintances in the court outside today.

However, Heng Mingshi didn't want Old General Feng to see that something was wrong, but Old General Feng refused to take his eyes off his face, and even squinted his eyes, looking at Heng Mingshi with a bit of scrutiny.

Heng Mingshi didn't understand why Old General Feng was staring at him, and couldn't help thinking about whether he had revealed any flaws just now.

As everyone knows, the way he looks at Old General Feng with such a natural attitude is the biggest flaw.

But when Fan Heng Mingshi looked at the two sides at this moment, he would find that the crowd who wanted to watch the crowd before, after the old general Feng came, they gave way one after another, as if there was an invisible barrier separating them Outside, he didn't dare to get close to Old General Feng, only dared to watch from a distance, even so, he didn't dare to look into Old General Feng's eyes, for fear that the other party would notice the peeping, and would glance over with one look. Bajiu will make them terrified for several days, and it is estimated that even dreaming at night will wake them up.

On the other hand, Heng Mingshi bumped headfirst into Old General Feng, and simply said "I hope you will forgive me, General", stepped aside, and then stared into Old General Feng's eyes.

Heng Mingshi is also very innocent. Every day when he goes to court, he watches a group of courtiers sing... Oh no, it's talking and discussing political affairs, so he doesn't realize how special his eyes are.

Feng Qi pulled Heng Mingshi's sleeve from behind.

Heng Mingshi turned his head to look at Feng Qi, suddenly realized, it seems that Old General Feng felt that something was wrong with the people behind him, so he kept staring at them, right?

Thinking of this, Heng Mingshi grabbed Feng Qi's hand, pulled him aside, and said, "Let's go."

The two walked out of the crowd smoothly, but Feng Qi was a little worried, approached Heng Mingshi, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, do you want to change into another outfit? I feel like I've been spotted?"

Heng Mingshi: "If it's seen, it's because people of your stature can be counted with a slap in the imperial city." Heng Mingshi raised his hand and patted Feng Qi's pectoralis major.

Feng Qi is very innocent: "Your Majesty, you also acted very clearly just now, which ordinary people are not afraid of my father..."

Hearing this, Heng Mingshi raised his eyebrows: "Feng Aiqing, it's best not to let those courtiers listen to your words, otherwise, they will be able to write an article in no time, impeaching your father for his great achievements, Ordinary people will be afraid of your father's deterrence."

Feng Qi: "..."

Feng Qi: "The minister made a slip of the tongue, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Heng Mingshi: "Say a few more words, let others listen to you, and expose your identity..."

Feng Qi changed his words in a good manner: "It's the servant who made a slip of the tongue, please forgive me, young master."

"Okay, let's do business first." Heng Mingshi closed his fan, shook it towards the roof, and walked to the nearest alley.

Ying Er, who was wearing a human skin mask, also landed next to Heng Mingshi, took out two new human skin masks from the bag, and prepared to put them on again.

But at this time, a familiar voice sounded behind him: "The last general will see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." The voice was thick, but it was obviously worried about something, it didn't shout out loud, but it was enough to make several people hear.

Heng Mingshi: "..."

Feng Qi: "..."

Heng Mingshi calmly stuffed the newly selected human skin mask back to Ying Er, and said: "Hahaha, what a coincidence, I can meet General Feng here by chance."

It was the first time for Old General Feng to hear Heng Mingshi speak in such a normal tone, and he was stunned for a while.

Immediately after that, what came to my mind was intense confusion: "Your Majesty, since... why?"

Old General Feng didn't explain it clearly, but Heng Mingshi understood what Old General Feng meant, and only raised a wry smile: "The reason is not something that can be explained in a short while."

Heng Mingshi stepped forward, lightly supported Old General Feng's arms with clasped fists and saluted with both hands, and said in a warm voice, "Ai Qing, please get up."

Only then did Old General Feng stand up, with a worried expression on his face: "Your Majesty, where is the Empress Dowager..."

Heng Mingshi's eyes darkened: "What she wants is just a puppet, and a puppet doesn't need to be conscious, so it's good for her."

Old General Feng frowned tightly.

Seeing Old General Feng, Heng Mingshi thought of another thing: "Speaking of which, she forced Aiqing to have a troublesome matter before, but today, it seems that those troublesome things were sent to the military camp stationed outside the city days in the middle?"

These words obviously mentioned the worry of Old General Feng, who immediately sighed: "The holy name of the emperor."

Heng Mingshi: "Now I'm outside, you should call me Young Master."

Feng opened his mouth, but he couldn't call out as naturally as Feng Qi.

Heng Mingshi didn't make things difficult for him: "If the general finds that troublesome, why don't you make it troublesome?"

"A good thing? Huang...Young Master, how can this be a good thing? Sigh..." Old General Feng stroked his beard, his whole face wrinkled in worry.

To put it bluntly, he would choose to go out for a walk today instead of staying in the barracks for drills, because he just didn't want to see those troublesome things.

Heng Mingshi shook his fan: "If the general doesn't mind, can you take me for a walk inside the barracks?"

Old General Feng immediately made a "please" gesture: "Please, young master!"

Heng Mingshi said again: "The general came out with his wife today, right? It's not easy for the general to have a reunion with his wife, just let General Xiaofeng take me there."

Only then did Old General Feng look at his son.

Feeling himself being glared at, Feng Qi: "..."

Old General Feng: "The last general will obey... the young master's arrangement."

Heng Mingshi: "Something happened in Xiangmanlou just now, I'm a little curious, if the general can spare some time to pay attention, that would be great."

Old General Feng was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered that when he was helping his wife get off the carriage, he heard someone talking about the death in Xiangmanlou.

Heng Mingshi: "I heard that the city is not peaceful recently, and children are always missing. I don't know if there are really demons and ghosts who love to eat children, or...some people with ulterior motives."

Old General Feng secretly lamented Heng Mingshi's well-informed information, and said: "Don't worry, young master, whether it's monsters, monsters, sprites, or people who make trouble, if there is a general here, he will have nowhere to hide!"

The corner of Heng Mingshi's mouth curled up slightly: "No, it's not that the general should investigate this matter, after all... this is not the scope of the general's responsibility, if the violation of power is exposed, it will only become more difficult for the general to go up. Report this matter to the governor, observe his words and deeds, and his subsequent actions..."

Heng Mingshi nodded: "After all, if demons and ghosts can appear in the imperial city, it means that the power of the dragon has disappeared, and it is not enough to deter those monsters and ghosts. Once someone misinterprets these words, then the day of political change is not far away."

In this era, theocracy is attached to and serves the imperial power, but if the actions of the royal family are really unpopular, then, when necessary, those who rebel will use the divine power as a reason for uprising.

A sentence of "going against God's will" can offset all previous achievements, and a sentence of "doing justice for the sky" can raise the flag to revolt.

If the rumors about demons and goblins eating children in the imperial city are allowed to simmer, and the government cannot deal with it in time and give the people an explanation, then this will become a choke in Baixin's heart. Maybe it is not yet revealed, but if If the backlog is too long, once there is a fuse, it will explode into the sky like a firecracker.

And if someone deliberately did such a thing and then spread rumors, then this person's ambition must not be small.

----

Half an hour later, Feng Qi drove the carriage and brought Heng Mingshi to the temporary camp of the Feng family army stationed outside the imperial city.

Even if the class teacher returned to the court, Empress Dowager An would not dare to let the old general Feng bring the army into the city, so she could only set up camp outside the imperial city, allowing the soldiers to enter the city with licenses to visit their relatives, but there was a time limit, and there were batches , Only one batch at a time is allowed to enter the city, and one batch at a time to go in at a time, and when the curfew is reached, all batches of soldiers must leave the city and return to the barracks stationed outside the city.

Of course, there will be rewards from the palace to their homes, and chariots and horses will be sent to send the rewards from the palace to the barracks. There is a lot of food and drink, and there is no shortage of fish, meat and cloth, but they are not allowed to spend the night in the city.

The Empress Dowager An is serious about guarding against the Feng Family Army.

But for many years, the northern border has been guarded by these Feng family troops led by the old general Feng.

It's funny to say that Empress Dowager An was clearly worried about the Feng family's army entering the imperial city, but she was relieved to send them to guard the northern border.

Feng Qi grew up in the military barracks since he was a child. He didn't need to rely on his badge, he could get in just by brushing his face and punching the head of the guard.

The chief guard and Feng Qi beat each other's chests, and then looked at Heng Mingshi who was following Feng Qi.

Feng Qi had already taken off the human skin mask in order to brush his face, but Heng Mingshi naturally couldn't take it off, so in the eyes of the chief guard, Heng Mingshi was just an ordinary-looking young man, dressed very elegantly and cleanly, and he knew at a glance that he was not like them all the way.
