Chapter 674
After retreating outside, Xie Qingxuan looked at Bai Zhan with some complaints: "Why didn't you say anything just now? We have done so much for him, and he didn't even give us a promise. What if the future turns ugly?"

"Yellow?"

Bai Zhan glanced back quietly, lowered his voice and waited for Xie Qingxuan: "You still asked me, why didn't you ask me just now? Now the responsibility is all on me. Hmph, don't talk about promises, he Later, he didn't even say a word, and I wondered if he was playing with us!"

Even if they were really playing tricks on them, with the degree of favor that King Cheng is now in front of the old emperor, they have no way to say no.

The two brothers and sisters shook their heads together, and walked outside with a sigh, feeling powerless all over.

The night in the capital is very quiet, and the people go home early to sleep. Occasionally, there are a few stray dogs running around, picking up food thrown away by the roadside.

A sound of ruts suddenly broke the silence, and the carriage headed straight for the city gate. The soldiers guarding the city gate did not dare to open the door without orders from their superiors, but the faces in the carriage made them very respectful.

It was Feng Yumou.

"I just received a secret report that bandits appeared outside the city. This general wants to go out for a while, so hurry up and open the city gate!"

Feng Yumou has been in the border gate for many years, and he has the majesty of a superior without anger. The two little soldiers guarding the city gate dare not even look at him, and are about to open the gate tremblingly.

At this moment, a person behind him walked over loudly, it was Xie Qingxuan.

"Is General Feng going out of the city? Is it too much trouble for General Feng to go out in person after a major incident?"

Xie Qingxuan had been guarding the city for so many days, and finally waited until they couldn't sit still and started to act. At this moment, he had an unconcealed smug smile on his face, and a pair of mung bean eyes still looked into the carriage from time to time.

Feng Yumou turned sideways to block his random eyes, and smiled lightly: "It's so late, Mr. Xie actually guards the city gate in person, which is really conscientious. If you don't know, you may think that Mr. Xie was forced to His Majesty demoted the official, sent here to guard the city gate!"

Sure enough, he is a person from the military camp. He looks gentle, and when he speaks, he can make people mad!

Xie Qingxuan took a long time to suppress the anger in his heart, and looked at him with a fake smile: "I'm really sorry, General Feng. There are a lot of things in the capital recently, and His Majesty ordered us to watch carefully in case something happens. Something unexpected happened. You said that we are all slaves, so naturally we can’t disobey His Majesty’s wishes, and I ask General Feng to give me face and cooperate with us.”

They said it was cooperation, but they just wanted to check if there was anyone hiding in the carriage that shouldn't be hiding.

"Oh? Master Xie, are you sure you must check?" Feng Yumou narrowed his long and narrow eyes, and a dangerous warning signal shot out.

Xie Qingxuan trembled subconsciously, but when he thought of the task that King Cheng had given him, he still bravely nodded his head.

"Since you want to check, you have to talk about it. If nothing is found, what should Mr. Xie do?"

This Chiguoguo threat!

Xie Qingxuan poked his neck: "I'm here to share your majesty's worries, and everything I do is for Dongling's country and community. If there is any offence, please forgive me, General Feng."

With that said, he waved his hand and asked someone to check the carriage.
