"When I was drinking tea just now, I observed that the soldiers guarding the city paid particular attention to the lone adult man, not only checking the guide, but also touching his face." Xu Qi'an said.
"Touch your face?" The princess was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, sneakingly lowered her voice: "Check for disguise?"
Isn't that stupid...... Xu Qi'an nodded, "This is definitely not looking for you, because the one who was taken away by the barbarians is that he will never walk alone."
No wonder he suddenly proposed to drink tea in the pergola, and rest... The princess suddenly realized.
Moreover, a region like Sanhuang County, which is adjacent to Jiangzhou, would normally not be the target of the barbarians, so such a strict investigation is unreasonable in itself.
"In addition, it can be seen from this incident that the Blood Slaughter Three Thousand Miles is definitely not an empty talk. Otherwise, the people of Zhenbei King would not be so cautious." Xu Qi'an sneered.
Without a ghost in his heart, he would not be so afraid of the legendary expert in solving crimes, Xu Yinluo, who is as powerful as hell.
The two found an inn in the city and asked for a first-class room. The door was closed. The princess who was obedient and obedient outside furiously said:
"You just want to take advantage of me, just like the guys written in the script. Only open one room deliberately."
What do you think is the name? Let me talk... Xu Qi'an sneered and said, "If you are willing to take off the bracelet, this officer is happy to spend the Spring Festival evening with the princess. As for how you look now. "
He pointed to the dressing table by the window, teasing: "Look in the mirror first."
The princess grinned her teeth angrily, gave him a hard look, then sneered and sneered: "Okay, then you sleep on my bed tonight. If you touch me, you will be a beast.
"Okay, I'm going to take a shower, please go out."
After so many days, she was actually not as defensive as Xu Qi'an before, knowing that he would not touch herself. But her arrogant personality and quarreling inertia made it difficult for her to get along with Xu Ningyan.
"I won't be back tonight. Go to bed early at night." Xu Qi'an waved, turned and walked to the door.
"Where are you going?" The princess's face changed slightly.
Although she didn't want to admit it, this guy did give her a long-term sense of security. When she left suddenly, she was a little uncomfortable and had no sense.
"I came to Sanhuang County, I want to find out if there is a Sanhuang chicken." Xu Qi'an replied.
When the princess heard this, she suddenly opened her eyes and smiled: "I'll go too, I want to eat too."
...Xu Qi'an said in a huff: "I'm going to the prostitute!"
"......"
The princess sat on the side of the bed, angling on her side, turning her head away, giving him a back of head.
.........
In the alley across the street from the inn, Xu Qi'an watched the inn for half an hour. He didn't see any suspicious person chasing, nor did he see the princess sneaking away sneakily.
"I didn't actually escape, is this princess brain sick?"
This result surprised Xu Qi'an. In his opinion, this was a rare opportunity to escape. From now on, the sky is high and the birds fly, and the sea is wide with fish.
Get rid of the status of the princess, and no longer have to worry about becoming a "medicine".
Is she unwilling to give up the glory and wealth brought by the status of the princess? Uh, through the past few days, she is actually more like a girl who hasn't been deeply involved in the world, she is arrogant and willful, and she is not dusty.
Besides, it is important to be prosperous and wealthy?
Judging from the tone of her usual mention of Duke Huai, she has no feelings for that nominal husband...well, sometimes she would be in a daze at night, showing a negative and pessimistic attitude. ....... Are you desperate for a destiny that you cannot resist? What a miserable woman.
Xu Qian went on the road in the middle of the night, wandering around the city for a long time, and finally stopped at the door of a brothel named "Yayin Tower".
As mentioned earlier (Chapter 21), the specifications of the brothel can be judged by its suffix. The first and second-class brothels are mainly "courtyards, pavilions, and pavilions".
The third and fourth class brothels are mostly named after "buildings, classes, and shops".
"Yayin Tower" can only be regarded as a middle-to-lower brothel, but in a small county like Sanhuang County, it is probably the highest standard brothel.
Women in colorful dresses greeted them at the door, laughing.
The Anzi who beat the guard is a seafood merchant in Yayinlou, whose name is Cai'er.
The dark children who beat the guards are all over the Dafeng, three teachers and nine liu, all kinds of occupations, so that they can gather information in all directions.
Before leaving the capital, Wei Yuan gave Xu Qi'an a list with the contact information, name, and information of the dark children in Chuzhou.
"Yeah, my lord, please inside please."
When Fang Fu stepped into the hall, an old bustard greeted Xu Qi'an with a vicious look. He was dressed in ordinary clothes, but his appearance was pretty good.
The appearance is second, the most important thing is the bulging purse around the waist, high-quality customers!
The old bustard is enthusiastic on the surface, but in fact a bit cautious. Because he doesn't know the other party's rank, he is a little uncertain about the degree of enthusiasm and is afraid of accidentally annoying the guests.
At this time, he saw Xu Qi'an open his arms.
In the brothel, this is for the old bustard to hold his arm to show closeness.
At first glance, the old-fashioned approval...The old bustard's face with heavy makeup bloomed, as if seeing his family, eagerly holding Xu Qi'an's arm, Jiao Didi said:
"Official man, you sit here first, have some tea, and the slave family will pick you up a few handsome girls..."
Before he finished speaking, Xu Qi'an waved to interrupt, and said, "I'm here to find Cai'er."
"Oh, it's unlucky for you to come, Cai'er has a guest, and you look at other girls again?" The old bustard's smile remained unchanged.
"I just pick children." Xu Qi'an took off his purse and threw it to the old bustard.
"This......"
The old bustard led Xu Qi'an up to the second floor with a look of embarrassment, but smiled in his heart. Compared with the white silver, what are the rules?
In the brothel, there are too many examples of fighting for a girl. Fighting is not a problem. The big deal is to blast out the troublemaker. Of course, those who bang are given less money or have no background.
The two came to the door of a room, and there was the sound of men and women doing errands, and the sound of the bed "creaking".
Xu Qi'an kicked the door open and disturbed the men and women in the room. On the bed, he saw a fat middle-aged man pressing on a delicate and gorgeous woman.
The man looked at the door in horror, and then he looked like he was about to kill, shouting: "Get out."
It was the gorgeous woman who saw the handsome and innocent young man, her eyes brightened.
Don't be angry...Well, this kind of thing, a man will be angry. Xu Qi'an strode forward, put on a posture of jealous daddy, lifted the man from the bed and beaten him up.
"Brother, brother, have something to say..."
After the man received two punches and kicked, he noticed that the opponent was powerful and scary, he knew he was not an opponent, and decisively begged for mercy.
"Get dressed and get out." Xu Qi'an cursed.
The man quickly put on his underwear and pants, then grabbed his jacket and pants and fled in a panic.
The old bustard standing at the door of the room cast a questioning look at Cai'er on the bed, who shook his head slightly.
She did not know this handsome man.
The old bustard is too lazy to care, with a smile on his face, and said: "Don't disturb the two of you to spend the Spring Festival together, Cai'er, take care of the guests."
After all, close the door.
Xu Qi'an sat down at the round table, his hearing amplified, listening to the old bustard's footsteps going away, and then the sound of stepping on the wooden stairs...
Cai'er sat up, exposed her white upper body, with a flush on her cheek, and smiled and said, "My husband, what are you waiting for? The slave family is waiting in bed anxiously."
While speaking, she looked at the handsome strange man.
As far as she is concerned, the man on her body has changed from an old man with a big belly to a handsome brother with top-notch skin. This is a good thing in the sky.
Xu Qi'an, who had confirmed that there was nothing unusual around him, stared at Cai'er and said leisurely: "Tsing Yi attendant."
In a few simple words, confirming that the face of the woman on the bed changed drastically, she lifted the quilt and got out of the bed in a panic, kneeling to the ground, and whispered: "No regrets for death."
The secret sign is correct...The portrait is also correct...Xu Qi'an nodded and said in a deep voice, "Get dressed, this official has something to ask you."
Cai'er converged on her fascination, picked up the skirt on the ground and put it on her body, and then began to put on her small clothes, not long before she dressed neatly.
This seemingly a woman from the dust, but actually Cai'er, who played even more dark child, greeted Xu Qi'an, and said, "Sir, can I see your waist card?"
"can."
Xu Qi'an took out the waist badge that belonged to her and put it on the table. The waist badge was silver-plated, the back was decorated with anti-counterfeiting patterns, and the word "Xu" was engraved on the front.
Cai'er pursed her mouth, shifted her gaze from her waist card to Xu Qi'an, looked at him with a look of worship, and asked, "You, are you Xu Qi'an and Xu Yinluo?"
Xu Qi'an smiled: "Do you know me?"
"Of course I know, if you don't even know that a young genius like you goes out of the yamen, then the slave family's ability to gather information is too low."
Cai'er looked excited, and said: "I know everything about you. You are Dafeng Shikui, and the case is like a god. In the year of the Beijing investigation, the capital was turbulent, and it was up to you to turn the tide. This calmed the storm.
"I also know that you defeated Buddhism Luohan in the capital; and when you were in Yunzhou, you alone blocked tens of thousands of rebels, and you were famous..."
Xu Qi'an smiled stiffly.
Really, who is blowing me? Has it all arrived in the North? In the eyes of a truly knowledgeable expert, I have become a laughingstock, right?
"Ahem!"
He coughed and said: "Don't gossip, I ask you, how has the northern border been recently? There has been a large-scale war."
Cai'er shook his head: "Although the barbarians have invaded the border, they are all small groups of cavalry looting, looting for a while from the east, and a while from the west. If there is a large-scale war, the people will flee south, and they will definitely pass through Sanhuang County. I don't know."
Xu Qi'an nodded and asked, "Are there any peculiar phenomena in various places, such as the sudden disappearance of a large number of people~EbookFREE.me~ Cai'er frowned, thought for a moment, and said: "The slave family has not collected the corresponding information... .... However, after your reminder, the Nujia remembered one thing, which is very strange. "
Xu Qi'an raised his eyebrows and quickly asked: "What's the matter?"
"A while ago, the Nu's family received a guest. He was an old man with his own caravan. He sold goods all over Chuzhou. That time, he drank too much. He complained that Xikou County and the three counties under its jurisdiction, I don’t know. Why was it blocked by officers and soldiers?
"He had to run for nothing, and he lost a few hundred taels of silver."
Xu Qi'an tapped his finger on the tabletop, "Where is Xikou County?"
Cai'er said in a salute: "Wait a moment."
She pulled out the box from the bottom of the bed, and the bottom layer was a geomancy map, took it out, spread it out on the table, and pointed somewhere and said, "This is Xikou County."
Xikou County is in the westernmost part of Chuzhou, and it is adjacent to the Buddhist Kingdom of the Western Regions. After Xikou County, it is the boundary of the Western Regions, hence the name.
Xikou County does not border the north.
"It is impossible for the war to go there, unless the northern barbarians make a detour, but the Western Regions Buddha Kingdom will not take the route.... In that case, why should Xikou County be sealed off?"
A bold guess emerged in Xu Qi'an's heart.
He nodded calmly and said, "What else do you want to add?"
Cai'er said: "I don't know outside, but the defense force of Sanhuang County has been strengthened a lot. In the past, there was no need for road guidance to enter and exit, but now the inspection is extremely strict."
Xu Qi'an smiled: "Did it happen in the last few days?"
Who knew Cai'er shook her head and said, "It was like this a month ago."
Hearing this, Xu Qi'an frowned suddenly.
