The Golden Drum Temple.

The monks are all huddled in the wing, and the eyes are blue and black under the sleepless eyes.

They were startled and scared, they only turned their ears to listen to the movement outside.

"Boom boom."

The temple gate was beaten vigorously, and those timid people were scared to drill under the bed.

"Wait, it's not officers and soldiers." An elderly monk spoke.

How can officers and soldiers knock slowly at the door leisurely, a symbolic knock is about to kick the door.

Speaking of which, this gate was repaired overnight by the monks. Last evening, the Guards clamored about the illness of the nobles in the palace and forcibly took away the abbot of the Golden Drum Temple, Master Mingbian. Originally called the craftsman to repair it today, but at night, a few old monks who couldn't sleep because they were worried about the safety of the master, suddenly saw a fire in the direction of the palace.

The fire lit up half of the night sky, and thick smoke even drifted outside the city.

From a distance, I could hear the rumbling of horses hoofs from the east and the inner city, which seemed to have been all night.

Children in the shops cry desperately, cats, dogs, cows and horses are also in a mess, every family closes their doors and windows, and even digs holes in the yard overnight to bury their belongings.

Under such circumstances, how can the monks of the Golden Drum Temple dare to sleep peacefully, leaving the door open for only two little novice monks to guard? I had to get up when I said anything, so I just put the door up and moved it in and stuffed it with tables, beds, and cabinets behind.

The scholars who were staying in the monastery were not able to help, they just kept guessing what happened.

Some people say that King Ning has seized power and the family has seized power, and some say that King Wu sent people to assassinate Ningtai City in an attempt to completely disrupt Ningtai City.

——Either way is very troublesome. Ordinary people don't care who is the emperor. What they fear is unrest.

Even if there are no officers and soldiers rushing in, the local rascals might break through the wall to search for property, adultery, wives and daughters, and murder.

When the chaos is over, they will disguise themselves and pretend that nothing has happened. It is also difficult for the government to find out who did evil in those days, because once the chaos is over, no one knows that the army is killing the people. Still the ruffian.

Either the monk or the borrowed scholars are trembling, and every cry of a baby in the neighborhood will affect their nerves.

Because they dare not go out to see the situation.

The fire was extinguished before dawn, and the smoke slowly dissipated. The situation should be moving in a good direction, but at the same time, this is also the most dangerous time-it is the ruffians who feel that there is no danger to their lives and can do evil wantonly. time.

Suddenly the door was knocked, and the sound of knocking on the door spread to the wing, and everyone was almost jumping out of their throats with their hearts.

What is really afraid of.

"I...I did it with them." A little novice picked up the bamboo poles used to support the windows in the house and exclaimed sternly.

The other monks hurriedly stopped, the bamboo pole is so thin, it may break if you use too much force, nothing is worth it!

"Don't be messy, not like officers and soldiers, nor like those villains." The old monk said calmly.

If it was a ruffian, it would have turned over the wall a long time ago.

As soon as the voice fell, the little novice who ran out before exclaimed in panic: "Who are you?"

As soon as Moli landed, he saw a teenage novice with his eyes widened, shaking all over, as if trying to fight him.

Fortunately, he also brought in Master Discrimination.

"Zhihui, what are you doing?"

Master Mingjian stood on the ground, still a little scared in his heart. After living for decades, he suddenly said "fly" and flew. Just now he was patting the door in front of the temple, and he was in the temple with a flower in front of him.

When I see the blocked gate and the little novice monk who is about to cry in fright, I can only pretend to yell: "Don't put down the bamboo pole yet."

The other monks who followed out to stop him were very excited when they saw the abbot, even the scholars.

"Master Discrimination is back!"

A bunch of people burst out of the wing, surrounding the old monk.

Everyone knows that they want to know what happened in the palace and how Master Discrimination returned safely.

Only the little novice monk who was squeezed to the side saw the black carp flying into the air and flying across the courtyard wall.

The little novice monk opened his mouth and walked to the wall in a daze to compare himself with the height of the lower courtyard wall.

"It turned out to be an old god." The child blurted out in shock, otherwise he should talk about the Arhat Bodhisattva after reading too many scriptures.

The ink carp who has not gone far: "..."

There is no way, Master Discernment’s impression of him is his old appearance, and Moli had to maintain this appearance to save people.

There is still chaos in the palace. When others think of the private doctor who was forcibly brought into the palace the night before, I don’t know it was a few days later. Therefore, before Mo Li left the palace, he deliberately separated from Meng Qi and walked to the palace garden to confirm that the stroke-stricken Zhu Mei had no worries about his life, and then brought the doctors out.

Among them are the Master of Discrimination and Doctor Hu who are visiting Zhu Meiren with Mo Li.

Doctor Hu is a doctor in a medicine hall in Jixianfang, and Master Mingbian is the presiding officer of the Golden Drum Temple.

Moli sent the latter, while Meng Qi went to Jixianfang.

On the way to give people away, Moli also easily interrupted the hands and feet of seven or eight ruffian villains, leaving them to lie down in the alley, tumbling and wailing.

The larger bazaar neighborhoods have gradually had official posts between the garrison and the yamen. Although the people dare not open the door to do business, the situation is not bad. In those remote places, people from the rivers and lakes who were suspected of Fengxing Pavilion appeared early. When Moli fell down a thief who was about to pry the door, he even had a face-to-face encounter with the people from the rivers and lakes.

They looked at Mo Li suspiciously, and came up to salute.

"Dare to ask the name of the senior..."

Mo Lei left without saying a word.

When it's unclear whether the opponent is under Qiu Si or Qiu Jing's, it is better to reveal some whereabouts and let Qiu Jing come to him.

I don't know if the Autumn Pavilion master can rush back to Ningtai City in time.

The people in Fengxing Pavilion looked at each other and didn't chase them. They just noted that there was such a person, and of course the news would be reported in layers.

Moli went around in several nearby cities, and saw people patrolling the city’s yamen everywhere, and the doors and windows of every household were closed, even those wealthy families were no exception.

Moli tried to hide in the dark and listened to the conversations of other people in Fengxing Pavilion. It turns out that most people in the rivers and lakes don’t know what happened. They just didn’t want Ningtai City to become chaotic because Fengxing Pavilion is in the city. For many industries, they are not only collecting information for Fengxingge, but even the relatives of their wives and children may be related to these shops.

Fengxing Pavilion is like a huge net, which closely weaves the major trading houses in the market. Perhaps these people’s ancestral homes are far and wide, but now their home is in Ningtai, they will never allow it here. Mess up.

Jius didn't need to give any orders at all, and everyone in Fengxing Pavilion would be dispatched.

Mo Li shook his head. He realized that Qiu Si's subordinates were divided into two parts. One was a quack like Yuan Ting, the tiger from the mountain. Even if his status was high enough, he seemed to be trusted by Mr. Qiu, but he knew it. Things are very limited, and the other is someone like Cheng Jingchuan who is in officialdom.

It is the latter who controls the city right now.

"What is the doctor looking at?"

A familiar and close voice came from his ear, Mo Li did not turn his head, and pointed to the soldiers and horses patrolling the city.

Meng Qi is now in his forties, wearing a robe that is well embroidered. I don’t know which dragon son Fengsun’s clothes are. At that time, Meng Qi casually found a luxurious palace and went in and searched for it. , Found many new clothes in the sandalwood cabinet.

Jiangnan has a wide variety of cloth embroidery techniques, and King Ning’s children and grandchildren will not wear clothes embroidered with various dragons all day like in Xiwen, for fear that others will not know that they are descendants of dragons and phoenixes, as long as they are expensive and comfortable. The clothes are available in any style.

For example, this one is in line with Meng Qi's preferences.

The color is very similar to the piece of material that Moli picked for him at the cloth shop, and it feels light and soft.

Since it was really lost in Feiheshan, it would be nice to have a substitute. Anyway, clothes are no longer worn (...)

Meng Qi saw the ink carp far away.

Besides they agreed to meet nearby, Meng Qi knew more and more about Moli, he knew he didn't want to be noticed, and he knew what kind of place he would like to choose. Both sides of this ridge are just blocked by nearby buildings. As long as you pay a little attention, it is difficult to be spotted. The best thing is that there is a medicine shop below.

In the summer, pharmacies will be equipped with anti-insect sachets, especially in the south.

Different pharmacies have different options for the weight, and different places have different doorways. For example, where there are many snakes, realgar is added, and where ants are infested, Baizhi is added.

It's like a national player hearing the sound of a chess piece set, and the chef smells the scent of a good dish from another home...The pace of keeping the walk is slow, and I can't help but want to stop to distinguish and taste.

So Meng Qi found one right.

It's just that besides the rattan box, there is also a lacquered carrying box beside Moli.

"This is?" Meng Qi didn't look at the ordinary soldiers and horses, but picked up the box.

This kind of box is very common, usually used to store meals, keep warm and avoid dust.

Mo Li stretched out his hand and opened the lid, rubbing the back of Meng Qi's hand with the edge of his palm.

Meng Qi took advantage of the situation, and the latter stared helplessly.

"Huh?"

A bowl of bright meat, made with a lot of sugar and vinegar, is exuding an attractive fragrance.

Meng Qi couldn't help picking up the chopsticks, but was stopped by Moli.

"Drink porridge first."

The carrying box has two layers, one layer is meat and braised sashimi, and the lower layer is rice porridge and sesame sponge cake.

The sponge cake is very well done. Just looking at it, you know that the master's craftsmanship is first-rate. This is the instinctive reaction of Master Meng, who loves South Point.

"You haven't eaten seriously in the past two days. Although the snacks are delicious, you can't make a meal." Moli frowned and said, seeing Meng Qi not guilty or even very happy, and couldn't help but hum. Said, "If you don't like to listen to this, and my master, Mr. Qin, is here, you have to eat porridge for three days and can only eat soft and rotten cabbage, where there is meat."

——That is because the doctor feels sorry for me, the teacher thought triumphantly.

Meng Qi took a bowl of porridge and took a sip, not forgetting to praise: "Which craftsmanship is this, drinking so soft and sweet, it seems to be sweet to the heart."

Moli didn’t pick him up, and said calmly: “It’s a restaurant two blocks away. It’s Fengxingge’s property. Today many shops are not open. Many people from the rivers and lakes can only go there. I used double The price of a portion cuts off a dish ordered by a guardian, and the other person is willing to wait a little longer for the sake of the money. Brother Meng just drank it, it may be the taste of money."

Meng Qi: "..."

He has clothes on his body and food in his hands, but he is particularly flustered.

Probably because there is no money in my pocket now, and I can't afford the doctor.
