The carriage passed through the small market in front of the city gate and gradually slowed down.The horse opened and closed its black nostrils vigorously, exhaling and inhaling constantly, which could not conceal the hardships of the journey.

When they got to the city gate, everyone saw that a simple checkpoint was set up in front of the gate.Surrounded by several guards with guns, they were looking through the luggage for those who entered the city; a person holding a pen and a book in each hand was carefully questioning what was going on, and the wolf in his hand was also majestically waving ink.Those who want to enter the city have to accommodate him as much as possible, and answer their questions as much as possible before they can enter the city.

"The next one!" The sharp-mouthed, monkey-cheeked interrogator called to Zhao Kuo.The latter, the royal horse, walked slowly to him, got out of the carriage, and imitated the villagers who had already entered the city to look at cats and draw tigers, and put on a submissive gesture.

"Hehe... This official messenger, why do you have to check when you enter and leave the town?" Zhao Kuo said with a smile.

The official took a breath, and his eyes as big as a mouse scrutinized the stranger in front of him.He first asked the left and right guards to search Zhao Kuo for any foreign objects, then walked around the carriage and asked, "Where did you guys come from? Where are you going? You carriage, inside Who are you pretending to be?"

"If you go back to the official messenger! We are from Jiangzhou and we are going to the north. No, we happen to be passing through your land. I hope you will be accommodating. Let me wait for a few days in the city to rest so I can continue on my way." Zhao Kuo cupped his hands in answer, thinking that he would like to deal with it, but he didn't know that "the devil is one foot tall, the Tao is one foot tall", but instead made the interrogator beat him up.

"Yo! Came from Jiangzhou?" The official twirled the thin and long splayed beard under his nose and smiled maliciously: "For no reason, from Jiangzhou, which is delicious and delicious, you say you want to go north? The north is so big, this young man, but where are you going?"

Zhao Kuo was afraid that he would try to find out and let others know too much about himself and his friends' whereabouts, so he temporarily made up a half-truth and tried to deceive the past, saying: "It's true, in fact, I and others are all of them. The merchants from Beizhen are going home in a hurry!"

"Oh!" The interrogator wrote with a swipe, and said again, "Then let the young master invite everyone on the carriage down? We are also routine, so don't take offense."

"It should be cooperated!" Zhao Kuo replied: "Just, can this female family be exempted... After all, it is a woman's home, which is inconvenient." Zhao Kuo pointed to his body and gestured a few times, signaling to let those Officers and soldiers should not search women's bodies.

"Uh... Young Master, this is not very good!" Unexpectedly, the interrogator became more serious and vigilant after hearing the word "female family", and then leaned into Zhao Kuo's ear and whispered: "Since the Young Master is frank with me, Then I will tell the truth. This is all an order from the top, saying that there was a female snitch recently, and there was a 'flower mark' next to her eye. It happened that the emperor returned from an expedition and wanted to rest at this Jiming Station. That's why we, the officials and yamen, came out to guard against martial law..."

"Oh..." Zhao Kuo suddenly said: "Since it's for the safety of the emperor, it's better to be cautious!" After that, he called everyone down from the carriage.The guards with guns swarmed into the car to search for luggage.It really was the arrival of the emperor that made them work so hard.

The monkey-faced official first carefully looked at the wanderers, and then asked Zhao Kuo: "You people from Beizhen, why are there still Miao people? Dare to ask the son's surname? These are the same sons, who are you? relation?"

"This..." Zhao Kuo scratched his frost on the temples, thought hard about Shaoqing, and replied, "My surname is Zhao, and the list is one word. The most petite and lovely girl is Shimei, and the girl next to her is That valiant young swordsman is my personal bodyguard!"

"What about the other two?"

Zhao Kuo continued: "The other two... are my new concubine!"

"What?" Ajuan roared in confusion.It was Murong Yan, who seemed to know Zhao Kuo's intention, and stopped her softly.The two girls were really like two "little concubines", they both gave Zhao Kuo a blessing and said "Husband" in unison.

"So it is!" The monkey-faced officer continued: "Since these three girls have a close relationship with Mr. Zhao, it is really inappropriate to search their bodies in front of Your Excellency... Then I will take a form and take Zhang Wangji makes people look good on their faces. Their bodies will be searched by Young Master Zhao, and my colleagues and I will be watching from the side."

"Ah? Still need to search!" Zhao Kuo thought that the perfect plan still missed a little flaw.

The monkey-faced officer took out a portrait of a woman from the booklet, and after checking the faces of the three girls one by one, he said, "That's natural! If there is an accident, you and I can't take the responsibility!"

After the official searched Bai Feng, Zhao Kuo had to obey his orders obediently due to the coercion of the officials.Fortunately, several of them are friends who have been with each other for some time. Otherwise, Zhao Kuo is afraid that he will not be able to clear the name of "loving frivolous and ignorant girls" in this life.

After passing the checkpoint in front of the city gate, several people finally entered the city.The large and small streets and alleys, the neat and tidy buildings, the impermanent people, and the repeated noises in their ears remind them that this is a lively place they don't know much about.

"Hey! Don't leave me behind!" Zhao Kuo drove the carriage by himself, slowly chasing after the friend in front.Suddenly, the Miao girl, Ajuan, turned around suddenly, so frightened that he immediately stopped his horse.

"What's wrong? You took advantage of both of us, and you still want to sit with us?" Ajuan hugged Murong Yan, who was smiling bitterly beside him, and said angrily.

"Isn't this... in order to pass the customs safely!" Zhao Kuo retorted: "If you were to talk about it, I'm afraid that two or three sentences would lead to a fight with others. This person is unfamiliar, so it is better for us to keep a low profile. what!"

"I don't care! Now the slave family just doesn't want to see you..." Ajuan pondered for a while, then turned her head to put her arms around Bai Feng, who was beside him, and continued, "You Zhao Kuo take advantage of yourself and take advantage of others all day long! The slave family is going to go around with Young Master Bai, don't you come, ah?" After speaking, Ajuan took the other three and turned to the end of a certain alley and walked to a more lively place, trying to get rid of it. Zhao Kuo driving a carriage.

Although Zhao Kuo followed closely, the carriage could no longer go because of the crowds.He had an accident, he just dropped the carriage and caught up on foot.
