Empress Qin walked to the spacious and bright place with the hand of the internal guard, obviously a little shocked by Ji's calm and composed appearance, besides, the aura emanating from this man was extremely unusual.

"I would like to see what kind of supernatural and supernatural being the beauty who bewitched the emperor is."

The surrounding palace people subconsciously took half a step back.

Ji Hanging's hands struggled a little, and in the eyes of Queen Qin, this kind of behavior confirmed the crime of "humeizi".

The hood on the top of her head was lifted roughly, and Queen Qin was stunned for a moment, as if she couldn't believe it.

Queen Qin withdrew her previous expression and said disdainfully, "It's just an ordinary-looking slave."

Queen Qin stood in the side hall only for one thing, and that was to teach King Hu Meixiang's lowly maid a lesson, but she never thought that Hu Meizi, whom she regarded as a thorn in her side, would turn into an ordinary-looking man, abruptly letting her go. Queen Qin's throat choked.

Queen Qin couldn't help being a little sullen, and was about to ask someone to kill the man, but saw a white shadow flashing in front of her eyes, and then, the person tied to the side hall suddenly disappeared without a trace, making Queen Qin frowned instantly. Brow, ordered the palace to martial law.

"Ji?" The person in front of him bypassed the chasing guards, and when he arrived at a safe place, he squatted down and untied Ji's rope, "Ji, this Marquis is here to save you."

As he spoke, he took off the thick gauze cap.

Ji suddenly focused.

Ji had imagined the scene of them meeting again more than once, but unexpectedly, it was in such an embarrassing situation.

What Ji didn't expect was that in the end, he would be rescued by Fu Wangzhi.

Ji looked straight into his eyes, and now he was right in front of his eyes, and all the shadows reflected in his eyes were him, how could it not make people's hearts throbbing.

He frowned brightly, and his smile surpassed the moonlight of the night, "Let's go, the carriage is still waiting for us outside."

He pursed his lips, thinking of the princess who was willing to assist him in escaping, she put on the gauze hat again, but smiled without saying a word.

He looked at the extremely ordinary face in front of him, but his eyes were as dark as abysses, which made him recognize Ji at a glance, and it was not in vain that he had followed King Xiang secretly for so long since he arrived at the palace.

With Luo Yan's help, all the imperial guards in the palace just now were nothing to worry about.

Relying on the road map of the palace in his hand, he took Ji all the way to the outside of the palace. When they carefully avoided the patrolling guards, the male servant beside Luo Yan beckoned them into a carriage. The carriage in the female mansion is different, but it is very similar to the ordinary carriage in Xiangwang's mansion.

"I would like to thank His Majesty the Empress Dowager for your help. Please tell Her Majesty the Empress Dowager to say goodbye to A Wei on my behalf. Thank you for his care in recent days."

He saluted slightly to the male servant outside the curtain, and the male servant smiled at him with parted lips.

"Mr. Fu is serious. Mr. Fu is a friend of Mr. Li, and a friend of His Majesty's Highness. However, His Majesty said that, please don't forget today's kindness. The favor owed by Mr. is always Pay it back."

The male servant didn't point out the tricks while talking, and turned around and left the palace gate in the blink of an eye.

The carriage arrived at a small town.In the small town, there were not many pedestrians. At dusk, Wuqi Border Town was a little desolate.

"You two, do you want to play the tip or stay in the hotel?"

Regardless of the main city or the frontier fortress, the ones in the inn to attract stoppers are all a set of rhetoric.

He lowered his gauze hat and moved forward, and Ji beside him put on the coarse linen clothes he prepared in advance and walked through the threshold.

The shopkeeper first glanced up at the two men, and at a glance, he saw that the two men were not from the country. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but cautiously sized up the two foreigners.

Ji threw a piece of silver on the counter, "Shopkeeper, I want a quiet upper room, we have to stay for two days."

The ordinary-looking Ji holds a posture of not getting close to strangers, but he thinks that it is not necessary to spend so much money when going out, because after all, money is limited.

He was about to speak to stop him, but Ji grabbed his hand just in time.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper took the money and said with a flattering smile: "Okay, here is the number plate and key of the guest room, take it with you two."

The shopkeeper handed the two of them a small and exquisite round wooden plaque and a key with a copper lock.

He took the key, and took a closer look at the log. The words engraved on it had never been seen even though he had been reading the paper for dozens of years.

"Treasurer, is this the unique text of Wuqi Kingdom? Why is there no record in the history books of all dynasties?"

He stopped in his tracks and asked, he remembered that there were such signs in the inn in Tanxian City, but they were sitting in the private room at that time, and they hadn't gone through such rules, so they didn't take it to heart, it was just a sign of decoration, In order to recognize the way.

The shopkeeper raised his eyebrows and smiled again, "These are all new characters promoted by the empress."

Just as she was about to continue, a few regular customers suddenly came to the lobby, and she had no time to pay attention to them, so she asked the waiter to lead them upstairs and explain his doubts along the way.

Ji followed behind him and went upstairs. He looked around, and there was a round wooden sign hanging in front of the door of almost every room, and the engravings on it were words, more like symbols.

The waiter stood still after wandering around, and held up a number plate with the same characters as the round wooden plate hanging in front of the room, "This kind of characters are called 'Arabic numerals', which were developed in Wuqi Kingdom in recent years, and can be used to record serial numbers The 'Arabic Numerals' were designed by the Empress herself, and they are much simpler than the cumbersome characters of the other five countries."

After all, the shop clerk pushed open the closed door, and looked around, the decoration inside was elegant and clean, which was beyond his expectation.

"I didn't expect a small town on the border of Wuqi Kingdom to be well-organized." Hearing what the waiter said, he felt that Queen Qin in the deep courtyard of the palace was indeed a rare genius in the world, so he took the number plate in his hand to compare The round wooden sign next to the door said, "These 'Arabic numerals' are really interesting."

He thought of Queen Qin in the side hall, and felt that the things made by this person were very novel, and Wuqi Kingdom was far from the small country that was recorded in a few words in the history books.

Ji Ye followed him closely, and before he walked in, the waiter suddenly turned around and stopped them, "You two guests, remember to lock the door after nightfall, this is a women's country, even if it is a small town, it is inevitable that there will be nightclubs at night. , not to mention, the two guest officers are men."

Speaking of the last sentence, he heard Ji Tiaomei sneer, frowned suddenly, nodded and dismissed the waiter.

He showed a cold and aloof look, "What are you laughing at?"

He walked into the room without squinting, and turned to stare at Ji, as if he was extremely dissatisfied.

Ji Shang's hand rubbing against the door suddenly stopped at this moment.Is this the first time he has shown different emotions in front of him?Forget it, after all, he actually agrees with him in his heart.

Ji raised his eyes, suppressed his cheering heart, and took a closer look at his side face, and the moment he hooked his lips, he felt happy on his own.

Ji gradually got closer.

After hearing Ji's silly laughter, he didn't know whether to laugh or be angry.

"Boom!—" Ji Gang was about to step over the threshold, he immediately lifted his foot into the room, and slammed the door tightly with his backhand, and then there was a clear locking sound.

Ji Dai was stunned for a moment, stuck in place, not knowing where to put his outstretched hand.

"This Marquis is tired, so you avoid it."

In the door, he turned his back to Ji and finished speaking, without turning his face to look at the people outside the room, he went straight to the bed.

Seeing this, Ji didn't intend to force his way in, so he stood by the door and waited for him to go out to eat.

Ji was silent outside the door.

He noticed Ji's figure, and he didn't have any extra thoughts to rest.

Hearing the sound of the wind blowing on the corridor pillars, he opened the window lattice, still locked the door of the house, sat at the wooden table next to the window lattice, made a cup of tea, and thought about it.

I don't know when, he and Ji no longer get along in the way of master and servant, but also friends and friends.

He pondered for a long time, and when he was silent, there was a slow knock on the door outside the room.

"Guest officer, it's time for dinner."

The shop waiter yelled twice outside, and when he answered, he turned around and walked back, looked at the man guarding the door from a distance, and shook his head puzzled.

Outside the door, Ji Yi, who was standing still, looked in slowly with his eyes.

He opened the door and looked up at the slender man in front of him. The man's black eyes seemed to contain the water of a deep pool, deep and cold, and the corners of his slightly raised lips were showing a look of indifference.

He walked around to Ji's side, and followed Ji to the wooden table upstairs by the window, waiting for the food and wine to be prepared by the back kitchen.

At this moment, outside the inn, guards in armor lined up to patrol the street. He was a little surprised, and the shopkeeper who was carrying the wine and food just came over.

"How can there be guards patrolling during the day?" He suppressed the anxiety in his heart, thinking that they were sent by the city of Tanxian to track down their tails.

However, the shopkeeper didn't look at him, but looked out the window, "The guest officer doesn't know, the next two days will be a big day for Wuqi, and all Wuqi people have to dress up and go out."

"Oh, so what kind of big day is this?" He looked out of the window lightly, hiding the unnaturalness on his face.

Ji took the wine cup and poured a glass of wine into his cup.

Seeing that the two were very interested in what was going on outside, the shopkeeper couldn't help but coughed and said: "The two guests are foreigners and don't understand the customs of Wuqi country. The two days after tomorrow will be the days when the epiphyllum is in full bloom. At that time, all the people in Wuqi Kingdom will open altars to sacrifice to the God of Tan, praying for good weather in the coming year."
