Chapter 276 "Get out of the way, get out of the way" Zuo Chi and Mo Lidao got off the boat and went ashore.
As soon as they reached the bottom of the city tower, before they entered the city, they saw a man on a horse galloping past in front of them, almost hitting the people who were unable to dodge.
Fortunately, The man's equestrian skills were so good that he could avoid it in time.
Seeing this, Zuo Chi couldn't help but secretly wonder.
He had never seen such a bold person galloping on horseback in broad daylight in the capital city, so he took a second look.
But he saw that the man was dressed in military uniform.
He should be a member of the army, but he looked very anxious.
For just a moment, Zuo Chi's heart suddenly tightened, and his face became a little heavy.
Mo Lidao looked at it strangely and couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong with you?
Your expression is suddenly so solemn."
Zuo Chi heard the words and said to Mo Lidao in a low tone: "It seems that the imperial court has learned about the news that Hui Qiang troops are approaching the border."
Mo Lidao was stunned when he heard the words, and then turned to look at the sergeant who had just passed by on horseback, but saw only dust flying behind him, and it was so blurry that he couldn't even see his back clearly.
"Does the imperial court have a countermeasure for your father?"
Mo Lidao turned around and asked.
Zuo Chi shook his head and said: "I haven't had time to write to my father yet, so I don't know much about the northern border."
Hearing this, Mo Lidao couldn't help but his eyes darkened, and he gritted his teeth and said: "The Qiang came here with 70,000 soldiers, almost the strength of the entire country.
Seeing how anxious the sergeant was just now, I guess it must have been an emergency that made him lose his sense.
The northern border is so lucky that what happened during this period of time Most of the things are related to the North, which is really difficult to deal with.”
Zuo Chi nodded, put on the bamboo hat in his hand to cover his face, and then said to Mo Lidao: "Now is not the time to talk about this matter.
Mr.
Mo, let's go into the city first and then talk."
Hearing this, Mo Lidao couldn't help but glance in the direction where the figure that just galloped away disappeared, then turned back and said to Zuo Chi: "Let's go, let's go to the city first."
Unexpectedly, as soon as the two arrived at the city gate, they were stopped by the soldiers guarding the city.
A person who seemed to be the team leader stepped forward and said to the two: "The Holy One has an order.
Anyone who enters the city in the past few days must undergo strict inspection.
I also ask this brother to take off his hat."
Just as Mo Lidao was about to speak and explain, he saw Zuo Chi standing sideways next to the soldier.
Blocking the other person's sight with his back, he whispered in his ear: "I am a leftist idiot."
Seeing that the soldier was dumbfounded and half-believing, Zuo Chi lifted up his bamboo hat.
He glanced at the soldier lightly.
He immediately put on the bamboo hat again.
Most people who live in the capital, whether they are ordinary people or officials and soldiers, know Zuo Chi, Zuo Batou of Dali Temple, and because he often investigates cases on the street, Zuo Chi's cold and handsome face is no stranger to him.
When the soldier saw Zuo Chi's true appearance, he immediately wanted to salute and say hello, but Zuo Chi stopped him.
The soldier was confused and heard Zuo Chi say: "The news of my return to Beijing must not be made known to others."
The soldier only said that the famous Mr.
Zuo was investigating another difficult case and could not reveal his identity easily.
Dang even nodded and agreed: "I understand, Mr.
Zuo, don't worry."
Zuo Chi nodded, and then said to Mr.
Mo: "let's go."
Mo Lidao nodded and followed Zuo Chi towards the city gate.
I just heard the soldier shouting loudly from behind to the other soldiers who were strictly observing the interrogation: "Quick release" However, after passing through the city gate and entering the city, Zuo Chi paused slightly and seemed to glance behind him from the corner of his eye.
However, in just a moment, Zuo Chi returned to normal.
Mo Lidao had a keen eye, and although Zuo Chi's movements were slight, they still did not escape Mo Lidao's eyes.
"What's wrong, but someone just discovered our whereabouts?"

Mo Lidao asked in a low voice.
Zuo Chi heard this and said calmly: "It's okay, Mr.
Mo, don't worry.
I just saw a familiar person, so I subconsciously took another look."
Mo Lidao nodded when he heard the words and asked no more questions.
In these extraordinary times, it is better to do less than to do more.
Since even Zuo Chi himself did not take it to heart, it means that it really has nothing to do with them, or even if it is related, it doesn't matter after thinking about it.
After entering the capital, Zuo Chi and Mo Lidao found a slightly remote inn to stay.
After settling in, Zuo Chi was about to go out.
Mo Lidao knew that Zuo Chi had his own purpose in coming to the capital, so he went to rest without asking any questions.
Zuo Chi stood at the door of the inn, his eyes under the bamboo hat gently scanned the surrounding scene.
When he saw that familiar figure still lingering not far away unwillingly, the corners of his mouth could not help but curve slightly, and he thought to himself: Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived in the capital, before I even had time to go to the palace, I met someone I knew once.
What a coincidence.
As soon as his mind changed, Zuo Chi turned around and walked towards a secluded narrow alley not far away with few people.
After careful observation, he saw that the man was following him again.
Zuo Chi was thinking in his mind as he walked.
How could this person recognize his identity and see through his disguise with his clothes that showed no trace of the past?
Could it be that he saw him when he lifted up his bamboo hat at the gate of the city just now?
But why did that man happen to be waiting at the city gate?
You know, Zuo Chi himself and Mo Lidao kept their whereabouts secret during the journey to Beijing, and no one knew about it.
How could someone be waiting for him at the city gate like this?
Zuo Chi couldn't figure it out, but he had already walked into this narrow alley with few people.
After Zuo Chi entered the narrow alley, he jumped up to the wall, hid his figure, and looked down at the people who followed him into the narrow alley as expected.
The man was young but his face was full of dirt.
If Zuo Chi could not recognize his expression and movements clearly, he would not have discovered this man's true identity.
Secretly surprised, Zuo Chi stood on the wall and looked at the person who entered the narrow alley and found that he was missing and was looking around anxiously.
He suddenly jumped behind the person and made no sound when he landed.
The man didn't know that the person he was anxiously looking for was standing behind him.
He saw that the narrow alley ended in a dead end, and he couldn't see Zuo Chi.
He couldn't help but said to himself anxiously: "Where is the person?
I was outside the city gate and I obviously saw him.
Why did he disappear after following him into the alley?"
Zuo Chi stood behind this man, but saw that the man was only looking forward to find his figure, without even looking back.
After standing for a long time, he didn't see the man in front of him turn around.
Zuo Chi couldn't help but raise his hands.
He hugged his chest, frowned and said to himself: How could this man not be as cunning and alert as his father?
How could he not realize that there was someone standing behind him for such a long time?
However, after thinking about it, Zuo Chi finally wondered why this person came to the capital at this time, so he coughed lightly.
When the man heard the sound, he immediately turned around and saw a man dressed in white and wearing a bamboo hat standing behind him.
He didn't feel panic at all, but shouted in great surprise: "Master Zuo, the idiot" Seeing this, Zuo Chi couldn't help but lower his gaze, looked at the visitor and said slowly: "Song Hao
