The complexity of the situation in the northwest was not unexpected by Gui Yunzheng.
No wonder the court was so relieved to let King Fu take over the throne of the Northwest King. It turned out that it had been planned for a long time.
From Li Xin's words, Gui Yunzheng judged that Ma Yue, the Anxi general of Longyou, was obviously the king of Longyou. On the surface, he obeyed Wang Hua, but in fact, the court only gave him a false title, which could not effectively control him. To put it bluntly, this area is a mess. The imperial court was beyond reach, so it simply guarded passes like Tongguan to guard against you. Therefore, a gentle person like King Fu is the best choice. He is not only good at appeasing the people, but also good at dealing with a group of foreigners, and he is finally able to keep everyone safe.
From this point of view, General Anxi may not be able to meet for a while!
He secretly had a calculation in his mind.
The group of people walked and chatted, admiring the scenery of this ancient capital, which was quite pleasant.
Lin Zhijing had been to Chang'an several times, but unlike Gui Xiaomin, he found everything novel. He was dragging behind, and he had some emotions in his heart.
The idea of being a chivalrous and righteous person and riding horses in the rivers and lakes is now mostly replaced by the feeling of traveling around the world. His structure and vision are slowly opening up, and he knows that one sword cannot see the wider world. A great chivalrous person should have the world in mind.
Suddenly, he vaguely felt that someone was following him furtively.
But who is ignorant and wants to do something famous?
With doubts, he suddenly turned back.
Sure enough, not far away, two businessmen-looking people immediately turned their heads and lowered the brim of their hats.
This move made him immediately sure that they were being targeted.
"Boss, how do you sell this hairpin?"
Lin Zhijing pretended not to know, grabbed a hairpin and asked a small stall owner selling flower accessories next to him.
"Haha, it's not expensive, it's not expensive, it's five cents!"
The stall owner is an old woman and she immediately greeted me with a smile.
For some reason, Gui Xiaomin saw Lin Zhijing stop and ask a street stall. She thought to herself, maybe he wanted to buy a gift for herself, so she hurriedly went over.
"Xiao Min, come and try!"
Lin Zhijing saw her coming, and while picking up the hairpin to put on Gui Xiaomin, he glanced at the two merchants with the corner of his eye.
However, due to this distraction, the hairpin was naturally not inserted properly.
"Ouch!"
Gui Xiaomin gasped out in pain.
"Oh, sin, sin!"
Lin Zhijing apologized hurriedly, but Gui Xiaomin certainly didn't care. Seeing him like this, she couldn't help but smile.
But when Lin Zhijing took out the money and bought the hairpin, he looked again and found that the two merchants had disappeared.
"Let's go!"
Gui Xiaomin was immersed in happiness, holding his arm happily and rushing forward.
Lin Zhijing looked back frequently, but never saw the two merchants again.
Not long after, he caught up with Xu Lang and saw that Gui Yunzheng and Li Xin were still chatting happily, so he whispered to Xu Lang quietly.
"What, there is such a thing? I'm afraid he just took the courage of a leopard!"
Although Xu Lang was a little surprised, he didn't care too much. This Xiangyang dragon pond and tiger den have been invaded, what are you afraid of?
At this time, Gui Xiaomin felt that something had happened from the expressions of the two of them.
"Brother Jing, please, didn't you just buy me a hairpin specifically?"
Although she has always had a good temper and a fairly quiet temperament, there was still some slight resentment in her tone at this time.
However, Lin Zhijing had been getting along with Xu Lang for a long time and had already learned to be naughty. At the moment, he smiled and said nothing.
