Chapter 21 The old friend
Go all the way.
Zuo Daoqi also knew why there were only so few people in the Guard Garden.
It turned out that in September of this year, Chang Jin, the second son of Duke Jing Guo, took people to the Xiyuan for hunting. There were more than a dozen eunuchs in the guard garden to serve him. Chang Jin was not good at archery and failed to hit the prey with nine arrows, so he let the eunuchs around him
Several eunuchs went to arrest him.
Who would have thought that the big insect that was only in the deepest part of Xiyuan would appear inexplicably on the outskirts.
Several eunuchs died on the spot...
Zuo Dodge sighed.
"Hey, who is that? Why don't you come in?"
Suddenly, he saw a little eunuch washing clothes in Yuanzi outside. He had not paid much attention to it just now. This little guy seemed to have been washing clothes all the time.
Xiao Jizi took a look and grinned, "His name is Xiao Xizi, he is a fool."
Zuo Dodge raised his eyebrows, "Idiot? How did he survive in September?"
Xiao Bazi continued, "He is good at ventriloquism and can imitate bird calls."
Another talented artist?
This small guard garden was so crouching tiger, hidden dragon, that Zuo Daoqi couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
He called Xiao Xizi in, and with Xiao Bazi's cooperation, he showed off his talent.
This guy really has two brushes, and his imitation of bird calls is so lifelike that it can be mistaken for the real thing.
After simply getting to know a few people and not making any arrangements, Zuo Daoqi left with Xiao Jizi and Xiao Bazi.
These two people were familiar with the guards at Jingminmen, so it was very easy to leave the palace.
Of course, strictly speaking, Xiyuan is also within the scope of the imperial palace.
Xiao Jizi and Xiao Bazi did not lie, because they had lived in the Guard Garden for a long time, and the gatekeepers really knew them.
It's just that the attitude is not good.
Zuo Daoqi could tell that these guards regarded the two of them as a joke, just like a cat encountering two very funny mice.
After he developed the skin membrane, his ears and eyes were sharp, and he could vaguely hear the laughter of these guards. They were even betting on how long the two of them could survive in the Guard Garden.
Zuo Daoqi just frowned and said nothing more.
There were no eunuchs born in the Jin Dynasty, so the status of eunuchs was very low. These guards were at least accomplished in martial arts, and the team leader was in the skin film realm, which was the same as Zuo Daoqi.
It is normal to look down on eunuchs in your heart.
"It's Brother Xiao Jiba, are you going to Xiyuan?" A guard said with an unscrupulous smile.
Xiao Jizi smiled apologetically and said, "Brother Liu, this is the new chief of our Guarding Garden. Eunuch Zuo, let's take Eunuch Zuo to Xiyuan to have a look."
The guard laughed and said nothing.
Zuo Daoqi saw that the guard wanted money.
Just when Xiao Jizi was about to take out the silver from his arms with a twitching look on his face, a tall horse galloped past in the distance. The man immediately made Zuo Daoqi's eyes light up.
He knew this man.
Reaching out to stop Xiao Jizi from taking out money, Zuo Dodge pointed at the figure that just rode past, "Who is that?"
The guard glanced at him sideways, with some disdain in his eyes, but he still seemed a little wary of the eunuch uniform Zuo Daoqi was wearing, "That's our Jingminmen duty officer - Wang Fang."
Zuo Daoqi was delighted, it turned out to be him.
"Excuse me, please let me know. I'll look for him on the left road."
The guard was shocked and looked at Zuo Daoqi. Does this eunuch in the cold palace know the master on duty?
He took a serious look at Zuo Daoqi. The more he looked at him, the more frightened he became. Zuo Daoqi had a temperament unique to martial arts practitioners. He was a practitioner!

Especially Zuo Daoqi's appearance is so good. As his appearance improves, his temperament will naturally improve.
For a moment, he was a little confused about Zuo Daoqi's identity, so he asked cautiously.
"May I ask what the relationship between this father-in-law and the master on duty is?"
Zuo Daoqi just smiled and said, "Just tell him. If you want to know, just ask him later."
The guard looked at Zuo Daoqi's face carefully again, then summoned a companion, who walked straight towards the city gate tower in the distance.
A few minutes later, Wang Fang, a tall and muscular man, walked down from the city gate tower and walked towards Zuo Dodge.
There was a little excitement in his eyes.
"Xiao Luzi, I didn't expect to see you again. How did you end up in this cold palace?"
Zuo Dodge recalled the memory of the original owner.
Wang Fang used to be the valet of the Ninth Prince, and his father seemed to be a minor commander of the Royal Forest Army.
He is about ten years older than Zuo Dodge.
Zuo Daoqi said with a somewhat forlorn expression, "The Ninth Prince is going to the feudal lord. I was performing for a saint in Hanyuan Hall a while ago, and accidentally broke my heart, so I came to this cold palace."
Wang Fang looked stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, "It's a good thing to come to this cold palace. No, our brothers can be reunited today."
Zuo Daoqi was slightly relieved when he saw that Wang Fang's attitude towards him was the same as before. Wang Fang had a bold personality and was informal, and his predecessor admired him very much.
"By the way, Xiaoluzi, are you going to Xiyuan?"
"Well, I am currently serving Concubine Wan Gui in the cold palace. The concubine is very nice. I want to go hunting in Xiyuan to replenish the body of the concubine."
Wang Fang was stunned for a moment, looked at Zuo Daoqi with a sigh in his eyes, and patted his shoulder, "You are still so kind... Since you hunt for the imperial concubine, you will come to Jingminmen every day in the future, and I will have someone do it for you."
Get ready to eat."
Zuo Daoqi refused, "Brother Wang, thank you for your kindness, but the purpose of the guard garden is to help the nobles hunt. I will take my brothers to try it in advance, and I can guarantee their lives when the time comes."
Wang Fang looked at Zuo Daoqi seriously and said, "Hey, Xiaoluzi, you are still so kind."
He was grateful to Zuo Daoqi. When he was young, the Ninth Prince was weak and sick, and once he fainted on the spot. No one knew why, and only Xiao Luzi took out the foreign object from the Ninth Prince's mouth.
Later, the imperial doctor felt that if he did not follow a small path, the consequences would be disastrous.
This made Wang Fang, the bodyguard who accompanied the Ninth Prince at the time, very grateful.
The two reminisced about old times.
Xiao Jizi on the other side gave Xiao Bazi a shove, "It seems that Eunuch Zuo has a great background. Did I just hear about the prince?"
"I heard it too."
The two looked at each other, "Thighs?!"
The blackmailing guard was also extremely surprised at this moment. Wang Fang was strict in managing the army, so how could he still have an old relationship with the eunuch in the palace?
With Wang Fang, an acquaintance, Zuo Daoqi naturally led the people out of Jingminmen with ease.
Outside the Jingmin Gate.
It is a huge school ground of tens of thousands of square meters, with several wooden tent frames on it.
After leaving the school grounds, there is a long official road with lush trees on both sides, which does not seem to be affected by the seasons.
The official road extends to the distance, and there are dark hills, and there are faint roars of wild beasts coming from inside.
Zuo Daoqi took a look and didn't go out along the main door. Instead, he left through the side door on the left. There was no official road here and few people came.
A lush bamboo forest appeared in front of the three of them.
