After Chen Hongfan left Ma Mansion, he and Ma Shiying's son Ma Xi walked to the school camp barracks in the northwest of the city, talking and laughing.

Along the way, we encountered several groups of soldiers patrolling the city for interrogation, but they were all shouted back by Chen Hongfan, who was holding the Luwang token.

"Brother Chen, is this wine today non-vegetarian or vegetarian?" Ma Xi asked. Because of his father's relationship, he originally became a general in the Beijing camp of the Hongguang court. He wanted to gain seniority and be promoted in the future, but he ended up following his father.

Escape all the way to Hangzhou.

After King Lu took charge of the country, Ma Shiying was left out in the cold. No one paid attention to him as the chief minister. He had nothing to do all day long and could only hang out at Yanboliu Bridge and play songs every night.

When he was in Nanjing before, in order to curry favor with Ma Shiying, Chen Hongfan often took Ma Xi to and from the land of romance. The two of them could be said to be brothers who had shot together, and they had a close relationship.

"Now that the city is under martial law, where did the meat and wine come from, and my nerdy military supervisor is still standing there in a daze." Chen Hongfan said with a bitter smile.

The two of them walked along the East River. When passing by a bun shop, Ma Xi saw a ragged beggar lying on a stone bridge next to an old willow tree. He seemed familiar.

"Huh? Why is there no one taking care of the beggars on the street?" Ma Xi asked puzzledly. He didn't know what the Hangzhou government office squad leader was doing, nor did he take care of these beggars living on the streets.

Chen Hongfan was secretly shocked, glanced at the beggar, stepped forward and kicked him twice, and said coldly: "Get up, go find another place to lie down, and stay here until the officials send you to guard the city."

The beggar was lying on the ground, opened his eyes and looked at Chen Hongfan, his black eyes were deep and unfathomable. The indifferent eyes made Chen Hongfan tremble all over, and then he winked secretly.

At this time, Ma Xi came up and leaned down to take a closer look at the beggar. Suddenly he patted his head and realized: "Isn't this the one my father saved in Nanjing and brought him all the way back to Hangzhou?

”

"Huh???" Chen Hongfan was startled again, and his little eyes suddenly looked at the beggar in confusion.

I saw the beggar slowly sitting up from the ground, grinning with his teeth bared, and said: "They are all cowards, they are all cowards."

The beggar exuded a pungent smell. Ma Xi frowned, and his fair and square face was slightly sad. He sighed and said: "Little beggar, go to the almshouse. Although it is dilapidated, it is better than this bridge.

It’s better to sleep in the open.”

The beggar's eyes flashed, and Ma Liuer stood up, raised his hands and circled around the two of them, cheering: "A beggar can save his life if he is ashamed."

The two were stunned. At this moment, the beggar suddenly bumped into Chen Hongfan. Chen Hongfan was caught off guard and was hit full of arms. He immediately kicked the beggar away angrily, slapped his armor in disgust, and cursed: "

You little lunatic has dirty my uncle’s body.”

Ma Xi glanced at Chen Hongfan strangely, and was about to step forward to check on the beggar lying on the ground, when he saw several patrolmen hurriedly coming over.

"Hey, who are you and what are you doing here at Yongning Bridge!"

The leader was a middle-aged squad leader, holding a waist knife in his hand and asking sternly, while the catchers behind him looked at the three of them warily.

Chen Hongfan was a little angry. Grandma's mountain pattern armor and phoenix-winged helmet were just decorations. They looked like they didn't have eyes. How could this general be so useless?

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Chen Hongfan didn't bother to say anything, so he took out his token and waved it at his classmate.

When the squad leader saw the token, he hurriedly saluted.

"General, I was waiting to see a fight here from a distance, so I rushed here in a hurry. How offensive it is." The squad leader said with an apologetic smile.

"Why don't you take this beggar to the almshouse?" Ma Xi took the opportunity to ask.

"Hey, let's take it. This little lunatic keeps sneaking out. We don't bother to take care of him anymore. Let him go. It just saves some food. The shopkeeper of this bun shop usually takes good care of him and he is not afraid of starving to death. ." The class leader explained helplessly.

After hearing this, Ma Xi could only sigh softly. At this time, if he could care about the beggar, the Hangzhou government office would be doing a good job.

"If you don't care about the lives of adults, who cares about the life of a beggar?" Chen Hongfan said in a strange tone from the side.

Ma Xi sighed heavily, then turned to Chen Hongfan and said with a smile: "Let's go and drink. I really deserve to die. How can I be distracted by drinking?"

After saying that, he took Chen Hongfan and left in a hurry.

Only the few officials were left in place.

"Boss, they still have the heart to drink." A catcher said angrily behind the squad leader.

The squad leader's face darkened as he watched the two people walking away, and he remained silent for a long time. Then he turned his head and looked at the locked bun shop, then turned around and walked to the little beggar.

The catchers stood not far away and waited quietly.

The little beggar was lying on the ground, holding his stomach and looking into the eyes of the class leader without saying a word.

"The horse has wavered, and the plan begins." The little beggar whispered.

The shift leader blinked to indicate that he had received it, and while looking ahead, he said quickly: "This bun shop has been opened recently, so be careful."

The beggar responded in a low voice, then stood up and ran across the Yongning Bridge like crazy, shouting cheerfully, "All civil and military officials will flee, all civil and military personnel will flee."

Soon, it disappeared.

The squad leader stood up, took a deep breath, turned around and smiled at his brothers: "Let's go, we are destined to patrol the streets, and we will never be able to become officials in our next life."

"Come to my house for a drink when you get off duty. My child is one month old today." A thin servant said shyly.

"Okay, Xiaohu, why didn't you tell us when he was born?" The other catchers said in surprise.

"Aren't you busy during this period, so I didn't tell everyone, but it's a full moon today, and my mother-in-law said, no matter what, I have to give my child a full moon." Xiaohu couldn't help but smile.

"Okay! Let's go together after we get off duty." The class leader stepped forward and patted Xiaohu heavily on the shoulder, shaking the thin little tiger repeatedly.

After a few people agreed, they continued to patrol with great energy.

The squad leader was four or five steps behind a few people. Looking at his men who were chatting and laughing, the smile on his face covered with yellow spots disappeared, replaced by a moment of confusion, and then he regained his composure and quickly followed.

......

In Prince Lu's Mansion, Zhu Changzi was standing in front of the complete picture of Kunyu of All Nations, in a daze.

Li Bao waited quietly aside and saw King Lu's hand gently stroking the map, his bright eyes full of affection.

This made Li Bao a little strange. He squinted his eyes and took a closer look, and then discovered that the place where King Lu's hand touched was the Xi'an Mansion of the Chief Envoy of Shaanxi Province.

"Li Bao, how far is Xianyang from Hangzhou?"

"Back in the prison country, I have been living in the south since I was a child. I haven't been to many places. I have limited knowledge. I really don't know how far Xianyang is from Hangzhou."
