Empress, she is beautiful Lu Ziye

The cold wind in winter is raging, and the number of people on the streets, lakesides, long bridges, and pavilions is gradually decreasing, but the number of guests in wine shops, teahouses, and theaters is increasing instead of decreasing.

Three or five people sit together, drink some wine to warm up, or order a piece of opera, and grill themselves over the charcoal fire provided by the store for free, without feeling cold anymore.

The sound of laughter and joking came through the half-closed window, and it was peaceful.

There is an ornamental banana plant in the corner of the lobby. I heard that the store bought it at a high price. It is very precious and looks green even in winter.

There was someone hiding in the depths of the greenery, with a sinister gaze that was incompatible with the laughter and joy around him.

It was Bai Zhanxiao who had not shown up for a long time.

Since the fall of the Yu family, he secretly escaped in the middle of the night and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to leave the capital. However, he did not expect Nan Zhen to move so quickly and ordered an all-out pursuit of him.

It happened that at this time, the government also posted a notice saying that there was a spy in the capital and that patrols should be strengthened. The soldiers guarding the city gate wanted to interrogate all the eighteen generations of our ancestors. If there was anything wrong, they would be detained for detailed investigation. Release only after investigation.

With his status, he has no problem dealing with soldiers, but once he goes out, he will be stared at by the people of Mingyue Pavilion. As soon as he steps out of the city gate, he will be surrounded on the back, and the gain outweighs the loss.

Bai Zhanxiao has been in Mingyue Pavilion for many years and knows that Nan Zhen cannot tolerate a trace of betrayal. If he is caught, he is afraid that life will be worse than death.

He once thought that apart from Mingyue Pavilion, the sky was vast and there was a place for him to show off his skills, but he never thought that Nan Zhen could do it so ruthlessly. It blocked his way out of the capital and made it impossible for him to survive in the capital.

Although the shopkeeper of Yaoshiju allowed him to stay for a short time, he could easily complain after a long time.

Besides, Bai Zhanxiao didn't want to hide like this forever.

He has had enough of hiding in hiding like a mouse!

"Waiter, bring up another plate of fried peanuts. I want them to be crunchy."

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment."

A man dressed as a servant sat down opposite him, blocking most of his sight, making it even harder for people to notice what was happening on Bai Zhanxiao's side.

"Master, the matter has been settled," he whispered after sitting down. "We need to get to the city gate on time at midnight tonight. The soldiers guarding the city will open the door for us."

Orders are dead, but people are alive. All the instructions from above are completed by the people below, so there is room for maneuver.

But despite this, it took Bai Zhanxiao a long time to avoid Mingyue Pavilion's pursuit and exhaust his connections in the capital to get this moment of opportunity.

Hearing this, the haze in Bai Zhanxiao's eyes finally dissipated a little.

He reached out and twisted the last peanut on the table, but he didn't rush to put it into his mouth. He just twisted it between his fingers and slowly rubbed it. "It was done well. Once I leave the capital, no one can stop me."

The person opposite also nodded.

Even if Mingyue Pavilion's pursuit will not stop here, there will always be some breathing space.

"I no longer have the glory I once had, and I have nothing to give you," Bai Zhanxiao narrowed his eyes and said, "When you leave the city, you can leave on your own. There is no need to follow me anymore."

When he left Mingyue Pavilion, he only brought four subordinates with him. Now three of them are dead, and the only one left is the man in front of him.

The person opposite shook his head, "There is no need for you to say this, Master. You have saved my life. Just like a new parent, I will never abandon you."

Because his parents died when he was young, he lived on a mountaintop and was almost killed by a wild dog. Fortunately, Bai Zhanxiao rescued him and took him with him to teach martial arts, and he became what he is today.

As a confidant, he knew Bai Zhanxiao's character well.

Maybe asking him to leave was just a temptation. If he really agreed, he would probably lose his breath as soon as he stepped out of the city gate. Although not everything Bai Zhanxiao did was done by him, at least he knew most of the inside story.

With so many secrets in his heart, how could Bai Zhanxiao let him leave safely?

But even so, his answer was still sincere. In the vast world, he is alone, and he doesn't know where he is going. It is better to give him his life, so as not to feel indebted for the rest of his life.

After hearing what he said, Bai Zhanxiao was not surprised. He just nodded lightly, "In that case, it's up to you."

The waiter came over with peanuts, and the two of them stopped talking and pretended to pay attention to the stage.

"I pulled you up to a high platform, gave you power and prestige, but I never thought that once you gained power, a gun would be drawn from behind. It made me bleed, and I regretted it on the spot. Now that you have fallen from the high platform, you say that I have no kindness and a poisonous heart. Mirror. With it in hand, I want to show you your ugly face!"

The sound of babbling came from the stage, causing cheers below.

Bai Zhanxiao frowned and looked at the two people on the stage unkindly.

This few words about howling and screaming can actually win a lot of applause. This theater is really on the verge of decline.

He dusted off the peanut crumbs on his body and looked up, but accidentally caught a familiar face, "Does that person look like Ah Jing?"

Bai Zhanxiao had never met Ah Jing, but he had already known about Ah Jing's entry into the Beitang, and her appearance was deeply imprinted in his mind.

She thought that after he left, the mess he left behind would be enough for Nan Zhen to have a headache for a long time, but she didn't expect that she would actually get a woman to become the leader of the hall.

How can a young girl hold her own?

What a joke!

He laughed at Nan Zhen's confusion and panic, but he never expected that news from Beitang would come one after another, and it was Ah Jing who was clearing out Beitang in a big way.

It was not until later, when there was no more news from Beitang, that he realized that he had underestimated this person.

Bai Zhanxiao held his breath in his heart. He always felt that Ajing was inferior to him, but he didn't find a chance to prove it. He didn't expect to meet her here today.

Seeing the change in his eyes, the subordinates immediately advised, "Master, we have many enemies but we are few, so it is not appropriate to confront her head-on. Besides, going out of the city is a big deal, so let's not get into trouble today."

If Zishi can't arrive smoothly, I don't know how long we will have to wait.

After hearing what he said, Bai Zhanxiao smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm sensible. It's not dark yet, and the ion time is very early, so it won't delay the time."

"Hall Master!"

Even though the subordinates suppressed their voices, it was not difficult to hear the anxiety in them.

He knew that Bai Zhanxiao was unhappy, but he had to bow his head before the general trend. The best thing they can do now is to do nothing and quietly wait for Ah Jing to leave, rather than taking the initiative to bump into her.

Bai Zhanxiao glanced at him and didn't say much. He just raised his hand to call the waiter, gave him a few instructions, and then waved him away.

With such a good opportunity in front of him, if he did nothing, he would be upset even if he left the capital.

Besides, even if you are caught, it would not be a pity to hold someone on your back before you die.

The subordinate felt helpless, but did not dare to speak again. He only sighed in his heart, and then observed his surroundings more vigilantly.

Ah Jing sat down near the stage. The guests at the front table had just left, and she missed something.

Bi later stepped into the threshold and placed a piece of cake in front of her, "I went out to buy things for the master, and I brought you a piece too. Try it. The next time you want to eat it, you have to wait until after the new year."
