Chapter 1448 Xin Zijuan is surrounded by dangers
The house in Gongxian Hutong is much smaller, but it is also much more exquisite and gorgeous. It can be seen that people have put a lot of effort into building and decorating it. However, they have changed to a larger house, so they are selling it out.
Feng Ziying didn’t show up for this small courtyard. She just looked at it outside and thought it was suitable, so she asked Ruixiang to buy it.
After finishing these two things, Feng Ziying felt much more at ease. At least she had an explanation for Wang Xifeng and Busia Mara, and the capital city was given a place to stay. As for Wang Xifeng's belly, she became pregnant. It's up to Wang Xifeng to decide how to arrange it. Of course, Feng Ziying prefers to go to Linqing.
Linqing has convenient transportation and a prosperous market. In addition, the old house has been renovated and is very luxurious. Of course, there are disadvantages. That is, Wang Xifeng lives in it and it looks a bit conspicuous. After all, this is Feng's house. Everyone knows that this is the old house of the Feng family in the capital. You, a woman with a big belly, came here to hide and give birth to a child, and her identity is unknown.
The people who guard the old house now are all old servants and old people of the Feng family. They must be tight-lipped, but they are also open to outsiders.
If it’s to Feng Ziying’s father and mother. It's certainly impossible for them to cover up.

The Feng family has so few heirs. The older generation is looking forward to the stars and the moon, hoping to have more children. At this time, who will care about who the mother is.
The only scary thing is that this stay will definitely last for a year and a half. After I get pregnant, I will probably have to hide here at least four or five months old, and then wait until the birth is over, at least until the baby is half a year old. You can only talk about whether to return to Beijing or not after you are 12 years old.
In this year, Wang Xifeng's temperament could not be curled up in Linqing Fengzhai. For Wang Xifeng, he hid in the house for a year and looked up at those few people. The taste was probably too difficult.
Moreover, even these people in the capital city will become suspicious. If they disappear without a trace for a year, there must be a reason. It is best to show their faces and even meet guests.
But meeting guests is also troublesome. After giving birth to a child and still breastfeeding, anyone with some experience or savvy can see some clues, but not meeting guests will make people more suspicious.
All in all, there will be a lot of troubles in the future, and Feng Ziying is too lazy to think about it. The soldiers will come to block the water and cover it up with the soil. Who told you that you only wanted to be happy at that time, and other people's stomachs were made big by you, so what can you do?
You can't abort the child, that's absolutely impossible, so you can only take it one step at a time, and then dig the road when you get to the mountain.
Feng Ziying came out after seeing the house in Gongxian Hutong, got into the carriage with Third Sister You, and then returned to Shuntian Mansion Office.
When getting on the bus, both Feng Ziying and You Sanjie felt a gaze looking over them. They looked back subconsciously and saw only a few people walking in a hurry, passing by each other without much impression.
Sanjie You was very vigilant, her eyes tracking the slowly passing back of the other party. Feng Ziying also subconsciously shook her head, did she have a guilty conscience and be too sensitive? Everyone seems a little suspicious.
"Ms. sir, I see that those people just now are all practitioners. Didn't they all make a special agreement with the Wucheng Army and Patrol Battalion to strengthen the inspection of Fang City here? Why are there still so many Jianghu people coming in arrogantly? It's really Is there no one in the capital city? Why don't you follow me and take a look?"
In addition to guarding Feng Ziying, Third Sister You is also in constant contact with Wu Yaoqing to keep abreast of information. She has even contacted Zhao Wenzhao to learn about the progress of the Guhe Ferry assassination case, but there is no such thing as Long Jinwei. Too much progress.
"No need, the capital city has a population of one million, hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and it is the center of our great Zhou Dynasty. It is normal for a few Jianghu people to come in. Now that you are gone, what if someone takes the opportunity to assassinate me?" Feng Ziying asked. He was joking, but he was still a little dissatisfied inside.
There are still some talents in the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division and the Patrol Battalion. He has dealt with both the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division and the Patrol Battalion, and he also has an understanding of these two forces through Wang Wenyan and Wu Yaoqing.
The Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division are mainly masters selected and trained by the military system. Among them are those from Jianghu sects who want to join the army and want to have a good career, and there are also children who have been in the military for generations and have been practicing martial arts since they were young. A capable person.
The Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, the Border Guards and even the Beijing Camp are different. They are originally positioned as armed forces for public security, similar to the armed police of later generations. Charging into battle is not their strong point, but fighting with small groups of people in the city is. expertise.
The status of the patrol camp is slightly lower than that of the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division, and it is in a subordinate position. However, both the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division and the patrol camp are under the supervision of the patrol censors of the Patrol City Procuratorate.
The institution of the City Patrol Inspector is also somewhat special, and the City Patrol Censor is somewhat similar to the Salt Patrol Censor.
Generally speaking, the censors who patrol the city come from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but they are different from other censors.
Other censors were all Jinshi, and they only needed to be approved by the cabinet and appointed by the staff. The emperor generally would not intervene in individual cases, otherwise it would easily arouse criticism from the scholars.
The city patrol censor is different, because he is actually in charge of the security of the entire capital city, and even the Shuntian government office has to give way. Therefore, the five city patrol censors of the city patrol court are all from the capital court, but in the end they need the emperor. Sign and approve in person.
Moreover, the difference between the City Patrol Censor and the Salt Patrol Censor is that they are extremely mobile. The five City Patrol Censors rarely serve for three years, and they basically change every year. It is very rare to work for two years. , this is also the consensus reached by the emperor and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, that is, to prevent a certain person from staying in this position for too long, forming a chain of interests, and even endangering the safety of the court.
Because of this, although the censor patrolling the city has great power, the commanders and deputy commanders of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division have more say in specific affairs. This is also a normal restriction model in the Zhou Dynasty. The five-city army and horse divisions and the patrol battalions restrict each other, and the patrol censor and the five-city army and horse commanders restrict each other. In the end, they can only listen to the emperor.
Of course, this is just a theory. For specific cases, not to mention the emperor, even the patrol censors and military commanders may not be able to take care of them. In a city with a population of more than one million, this does not include one day a day. Entering the city early in the morning, leaving the city at sunset, and traveling merchants coming and going, such a complex metropolis is still a relatively primitive management model. How can it be managed?
There are countless cases of rape, robbery, abduction, and murder that occur every day.
Whether it is the Five-City Military and Horse Division, the patrol camp, or the Shuntian Government Office and the two county offices of Daxing and Wanping, they can only be said to be struggling to maintain themselves and avoid malignant cases with too great impact and egregious consequences. Even so, it would be abnormal if there were not a few shocking and major cases that shocked the government and the public every year in the capital city.
Third Sister You couldn't help but look at the figures who were gradually going away again, and said unwillingly: "Ms. sir, there must be something wrong with those people. Ordinary Jianghu people will try their best to avoid the 30-50% chance of entering the capital city." The purpose of gathering in groups is to prevent them from being targeted by the people from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, the Patrol Battalion, and the Shuntian Mansion Yamen. However, these few of them are so bold, either unscrupulous or ambitious, but they all have problems anyway..."
Feng Ziying was shocked when she heard what Sanjie You said, and suddenly became wary, "Then let's go quickly, speed up, and get off the car at the corner, leaving Ruixiang sitting alone on the shaft..."
The carriage suddenly accelerated, and even Third Sister You and Ruixiang were a little panicked.
Sanjie You said it casually, but she reminded Feng Ziying.
During this period, the Five City Soldiers and Patrol Battalions stepped up their inspections and patrols in the cities along the Imperial City. Originally, the Patrol Battalion mainly conducted patrols at night, but considering that many people in the Patrol Battalion came from Jianghu, this aspect is more important. He is good at it, so he also specially dispatched some plainclothes patrol battalions to camp around the imperial city and conduct interrogations. As long as suspicious persons are found, they can be captured first.
Because of this, even the gang of bachelors under Ni Ershou have restrained themselves a lot. They usually avoid the streets. Now these people have come to Andingmen Street. This is a bit incredible. For example, Third Sister You As he said, apart from taking this risk because he had some agenda, he couldn't think of any other reason why he had to go to Andingmen Street in broad daylight.
As soon as the carriage passed the corner, Feng Ziying and Third Sister You jumped out of the car lightly. However, the carriage did not even stop and went directly along Tieshizhutong to Jixian Street.
Feng Ziying took Sanjie You and squatted down behind the door of a house next to Iron Lion Alley to observe carefully.
As expected, several figures quickly followed from behind and quickly chased into the Iron Lion Alley.
Feng Ziying and You Sanjie both exchanged horrified looks, and You Sanjie's face was even more pale. Although the other party may not succeed even if they encounter several people from the other side, the risk is too great.
Sanjie You wanted to follow up and have a look, but Feng Ziying held her back.
People come prepared, so they will naturally have backup plans. There may be someone behind them. If they show up like this, won't they reveal their true colors and be discovered by the other party that they have been aware of it?
Feng Ziying’s face was stern, staring at the depths of Iron Lion Alley, motionless.
