The soldiers guarding the gate looked at the ladies of the rich families and frowned. They did not dare to scold them, did not dare to stop them, did not dare to hit them, and could only watch as they completely blocked the gate.

"Sir, you didn't think of that, right?" Li Ye joked as he looked at the crowd of people leaving the city gate with the melon seeds in his hands.

Zhao Zijin lowered his head, not daring to look up at the crowd. He whispered into Li Ye's ear, "When can I leave?"

Li Ye waved his hand and knocked on the melon seeds in his hand. Seeing the maid beside Zhao Zijin angrily handing over a handful of melon seeds, he asked in a low voice, "What's wrong, are you scared?"

Zhao Ning shook his head with a flushed face and said with a huff, "These people are so annoying. Last time, we tried to pour some wine for you, but now you're stopping us from going home." Then he lightly kicked Zhao Zijin's leg and said, "It's all Mr's fault for being too ostentatious."

Zhao Zijin withdrew his foot in pain, helplessly looking at his servant girl. He pulled Li Ye and talked to her in the distance, "Ask Xi Hu when he is coming. Look at my servant girl, she can't help but want to go home."

Li Ye looked at Zhao Zijin from head to toe, then looked at the angry maidservants in the distance with a strange smile. Leaving Zhao Zijin, he took out two copper coins and bought a stick of candied fruits from a peddler before walking towards Zhao Ning. He patted Zhao Ning on the shoulder and asked, "What do you want to do at home? Is Qingzhou not fun? "

Zhao Ning turned his head and saw it was Li Ye. He took back the words he had just prepared and looked at Li Ye as he replied in a low voice: "No, Qingzhou's food is not as delicious as Yangzhou's. I want to eat Yangzhou's preserves, a thousand layers of oil, Yangzhou's cakes …" Zhao Ning was drooling as he spoke.

Zhao Zijin took out a silk handkerchief, wiped the saliva at the corner of Zhao Ning's mouth, and took the candied flakes from Li Ye's back. His eyes were squinting into slits. Zhao Zijin pinched her face and said softly, "If you can bear it any longer, eat a bunch of candied fruits first. We'll be in Qingzhou when Xi Hu arrives."

Just as he said that, Deng Xihu drove a horse carriage towards Zhao Zijin. He smiled at him and said, "What? The great scholar still hasn't thought of a good way to leave the city? "

At this time, Zhao Zijin's face no longer had the gentleness and gentleness he had towards Zhao Ning, nor was he polite to Li Ye. He turned to Deng Xi Hu and sternly said: "Don't blame me for revealing what happened in the past!"

When Deng Xi Hu heard that he had retracted his ridicule, he quickly jumped down from the horse carriage and apologized for being polite and letting his master and servant get on the horse carriage. He personally drove the horse carriage to escort Zhao Zijin out of the city.

A group of city guards saw that their young master was confident so they hurriedly ran towards Deng Xi Hu. Deng Xi Hu raised his horse whip and shouted, "Zhao Zi Jin had already run away from the west gate, what are you guys doing here? Why are you still blocking my path? "

However, his tone made people feel uncomfortable. The young lady from the Shi family who led the group said: "Deng Xi Hu, you can't eat grapes, you can only envy the brilliant talent of the Zhao family."

He did not bother to argue with these people as he rode his horse out of the city gate. Not long after, he arrived at the outskirts of the city and jumped down from the horse carriage. He smiled at Zhao Zijin and said, "Zijin, a few miles ahead is an inn. I won't send you off. "

Zhao Zijin pulled open the curtain, thanked Deng Xihu and got out of the carriage. He then personally rode the horse towards the south. Finally, Li Ye and Deng Xihu watched as Zhao Zijin's horse carriage disappeared, and the smile on their faces gradually disappeared, and their expressions turned cold. They looked at the distant wall that only had a crack left, and slowly walked back to face the chaotic White City.

Zhao Zijin drove the horse carriage and looked around, then said to the maidservants behind him, "Ning'er, do you feel that something big is happening in the Qing Province?"

In the past, the gluttonous servant did not reveal her usual expression. She coldly sized up the surrounding activity and coldly spoke to her husband, "Sir, it's best if you leave the Azure Province as soon as possible. I feel that my heart is hanging in the air while staying in the Azure Province."

Zhao Zijin nodded his head and drove the carriage towards Deng Xihu's Inn, but before he even made it halfway, he was shocked by the activity on the road. On the road, Zhao Zijin saw an important matter and stopped his carriage.

However, what was impressive was that during the tribulation, the officials and soldiers did not resist, but handed over the protective equipment to the Darkya bandits like friends. Zhao Zijin and Zhao Ning glanced at each other, their eyes filled with surprise, although they were shocked, they did not speak to each other. They only held their breaths and continued to watch the exchange between the officials and the Darkya bandits.

From the looks of the movements of the two sides, this was not the first time the two sides were trading. What was even more shocking was that the government horses pulling the military equipment used the carriage crash and the battering ram. These things were not ordinary weapons, but were used to attack the city.

After the transaction was completed, both master and servant did not dare to come out from their hiding place. Seeing that there was no one patrolling, the two of them let out a breath of air and looked at each other, wiping the cold sweat off their foreheads. The two of them were so scared that their backs became wet from the shock.

Not long after arriving at the appointed place, Zhao Zijin jumped down from the horse carriage and helped Zhao Ning off the horse carriage. Zhao Zijin sent Zhao Ning back to the horse carriage and hurriedly ran over to the carriage given by Deng Xihu, jumped on it and brandished the whip in his hand, then drove back towards White City. He shouted to the people behind him, "Ning'er, Xi Hu, I have to help this time, you go home first. Mister will definitely meet me in a few days!"

However, a figure appeared around the carriage he was driving. It was Ning'er, who was actually this fast, and with a leap, she jumped onto the carriage and hugged her husband's waist, pressing her face against Zhao Zijin's back. She said softly, "Sir, where are we going? I'm going. We are going back together."

Zhao Zijin smiled, but he didn't say anything. He just drove the carriage back to White City.
