Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they heard this. Luo Tianbao looked at Ji Baida with admiration and said to himself that his second senior brother's vision was really accurate and his analysis of Qi Xiang's martial arts was spot on.

The group of people stayed at the cottage that night. Lu Heng was a little suspicious of Qi Xiang and others, so he pretended to sleep at night, but in fact he was always on high alert. However, there was nothing unusual about Qi Xiang and others, so Lu Heng gradually became more and more suspicious of these people.

Let go of hostility.

The next day, the group officially broke up and went their separate ways. Qi Xiang was a little worried when he heard that Luo Tianbao and others were going to the capital, so he proposed to bring a few people to escort the bodyguards, but Luo Tianbao and others declined politely.

We had enough manpower, and secondly, everyone was afraid that if Qi Xiang was away, there would be any changes in the people under him along the way. Although Qi Xiang was reckless, he gradually felt that everyone was interested and stopped insisting.

In order to facilitate their movement within Dongzhou territory, Lu Heng also wrote a road note for them in his own name, so that these hundreds of people could basically move unhindered in the area under the jurisdiction of the Dongzhou Army, and the two sides separated from then on.

Because Qi Xiang introduced the distribution of bandits and bandits in the nearby area before leaving, everyone was able to pass safely. On this day, the group arrived at the border between Dongzhou and Yazhou. Going further, they were out of the control of the Dongzhou Army.

Lu Heng had originally intended to send them off again, but their special status would easily lead to disputes once discovered by the Yazhou defenders, so everyone had no choice but to say goodbye.

Seeing Lu Heng and others go far away, Luo Tianbao and others were quite emotional. Although this trip to Dongzhou was different from what they expected, Lu Heng still treated everyone sincerely. I wonder if Xiahou Suiliang and Jin Doubao

The differences will become bigger and bigger in the future, and where will everyone and Lu Heng go when they arrive?

After that, Luo Tianbao and his party continued to travel westward, gradually approaching the capital, which has now become the new capital of King Youyun. According to Luo Tianbao and others' wishes, they originally wanted to take a detour. After all, Jindou Bao's relationship with the rebels

It was still extremely subtle now, and it would be very troublesome if the other party found out her identity, but everyone had already discussed it, but Luo Tianbao found that Ai Sisi's appearance was a little strange.

"Sisi, are you worried about something recently?"

"No, young master, you are too worried."

"No, we have been getting along for some time. Do you have something on your mind that you can't hide from me? What happened if you told me the truth?"

Finally, under Luo Tianbao's repeated questioning, Ai Sisi finally revealed the truth: "Young Master, you know that I used to stay with my father for two years, and then I left because of the war. Now that I am passing by my old place, I want to go back and have a look and ask some questions.

What is the whereabouts of my former acquaintances, but I am just a contemporary, so thinking this way would be a bit willful."

Luo Tianbao suddenly realized after hearing this. When he thought about what Ai Sisi said, it was human nature. She had worked hard with him these days. Now she only had this little wish. If she didn't fulfill her wish, she, as a young master, would not be able to fulfill her wish.

It was a bit unkind. Thinking of this, Luo Tianbao couldn't help but said: "So that's it. In fact, this is a trivial matter. I will discuss it with the second senior brother and the others and just go to the capital to accompany them."

Ai Sisi's eyes couldn't help but shine when she heard this, but soon she looked a little frightened: "Isn't this good? You take the risk of inflicting the misfortune on my young master for a servant like me."

Hearing this, Luo Tianbao smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay. I've said it before. Although we are called masters and servants, we are actually friends. Helping each other out is nothing."

"Young Master, you are so kind!" Ai Sisi said excitedly and took Luo Tianbao's hand. Her hand was very gentle and soft. For a moment, Luo Tianbao couldn't help but feel a movement in his heart. In fact, he took a closer look at Ai Sisi.

Although she is not the most beautiful woman in the country, she is one of the best in a thousand, and her personality is extremely gentle. It is impossible to say that Luo Tianbao is not moved at all, but then he thought about how he had no other thoughts when he saved her, and now he is so

Wouldn't he become the kind of evil boy who wouldn't even let go of maids and maids? Thinking of this, Luo Tianbao couldn't help but give up his thoughts.

The next day Luo Tianbao told everyone about this. Although everyone felt that doing so was a bit risky, they also understood that Luo Tianbao wanted to fulfill Ai Sisi's wish, and they couldn't bear to offend him at the moment, and he was plotting against Baida and others.

It seemed that they could handle the risks even if they came to the capital, so everyone finally agreed, and the group changed their route and went straight to the capital.

In fact, the capital was still the political center of the hinterland until the time when the emperor took office. During the twenty-three years of the emperor's reign, more than two-thirds of that time was spent in the capital handling state affairs.

He, then moved the ruling center back to the capital, but all the palace facilities left behind by the capital are still there, so its prosperity is not inferior to the capital. Luo Tianbao came here more than once when he was a bodyguard in his early years. Unexpectedly, now he returns to his old place.

Traveling, everything was very different from what I remembered.

Is this really the magnificent capital of the past? It looks like a ruin that has just experienced a catastrophe. There are ruins everywhere, beggars and refugees can be seen everywhere on the streets, and there are even dead bodies. Although everyone has heard that the rebels captured the capital

They looted wantonly, but they never expected that the impact would be so great. Seeing these, Luo Tianbao couldn't help but feel even more disgusted with the rebels.

In the end, everyone stayed at the old Jixiang store in the south of the city. Boss Feng here had a long history with the Yunda escort agency. In the past, the escort team almost always stayed at his place every time they came to accompany them. Luo Tianbao also hoped to learn something about his master from him.

News from others.

The inn itself has not changed much. Except that the business is slightly sluggish, it is basically the same as Luo Tianbao remembers it. But Boss Feng has changed a lot. Luo Tianbao remembers that he should be less than fifty years old this year, but he looks like a person.

The old man, who was between six and seventy years old, even his hair was already gray. He was at least nearly twenty years older than Luo Tianbao in his impression, but the other party didn't even recognize Luo Tianbao at first.

"What's your name, this young man? What do you want from me?"

"Boss Feng, you don't know me anymore? I'm Luo Tianbao from Yunda Escort Agency. The year before last, my master Gao Fengshan and I came to stay with you for a few days. At that time, you were still making arrangements to arrange a marriage for me."

Boss Feng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then looked at Luo Tianbao carefully for a while, and finally slapped his thigh: "Oh, it's you, my child. I can hardly recognize you after not seeing each other for more than two years. Come on, let me see you."

Look, well, this kid is getting more and more handsome, and looking at this outfit, you are getting rich, right?"

Luo Tianbao smiled bitterly upon hearing this: "It's a long story, but uncle, why have you aged so much after two years of not seeing me? I almost didn't dare to recognize you just now."

"Hey, kid, you don't know something. It's not easy for me to survive." Boss Feng couldn't help but burst into tears when he said this.

It turned out that when the rebels attacked the capital, Boss Feng originally wanted to escape with his family, Xinruan, but he did not expect that the defenders were defeated in one battle. The rebels took over the capital in less than two days, so Boss Feng and his family did not survive at all.

They had time to escape, but after the rebels entered the city, they burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of crimes. Old Feng's family was not spared either. Not only was all their belongings robbed, but even Boss Feng's unmarried young daughter was snatched away by the rebels and she eventually became a deputy general.
