"When I was drinking tea just now, I observed that the soldiers guarding the city paid special attention to the adult men walking alone. They not only checked the road guide, but also touched their faces." Xu Qian Road.

"Touch your face?" The princess was stunned for a moment, and then reacted. She lowered her voice stealthily: "check if there is a change of face?"

It's not stupid..... Xu Qi'an nodded, "it's definitely not looking for you, because it's the barbarians who have taken away. They will never walk alone."

No wonder he suddenly proposed to drink tea in the shed and have a rest.

Moreover, an area like Sanhuang County, which is close to Jiangzhou, usually does not become the target of the barbarians, so it is unreasonable to make such a strict inventory.

"In addition, it can be seen from this incident that blood slaughtering three thousand li is absolutely not empty talk. Otherwise, the people of Zhenbei Wang would not be so cautious. " Xu Qian sneered.

If you don't have a ghost in your heart, you won't be so afraid of the legendary crack master, Xu Yinluo, who is as powerful as a prison.

They found an inn in the city and asked for a superior room. As soon as the door was closed, the obedient Princess got angry and said, "you just want to take advantage of me, just like those lecherons in the storybook. Only one room on purpose

What's the name of the script? I want to borrow one to talk with you... "Xu Qi'an said with a sneer:" if you are willing to take off the bracelet, I'd like to spend the Spring Festival with you. As for the way you are now. "

He pointed to the dresser by the window and said, "look in the mirror first."

The princess grinned her teeth and gave him a hard look. She sneered back: "OK, you can sleep in my bed tonight. If you touch me, you're a beast.

"Well, I'm going to take a shower. Please go out."

After so many days, she didn't guard against Xu Qi'an as before. She knew that he probably wouldn't touch herself. But the arrogant character and the habit of quarreling make it difficult for her to get along with Xu Ningyan.

"I won't come back tonight. I'll go to bed early at night." Xu Qi'an waved and turned 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 sense of security for a long time. When she left suddenly, she didn't adapt to it, and she didn't know what to do.

"Come to Sanhuang County, I want to find out if there is Sanhuang chicken." Xu Qian replied.

"I'll go too. I want to eat it too," she said

... Xu Qi'an has no good way: "I'll go to the brothel!"

"......

The Princess sat beside the bed, angrily leaning on her side, not turning her head, and giving him the back of her head.

...

in the lane across the street from the inn, Xu Qi'an watched the inn for half an hour, but he didn't see any suspicious people tracking him or the princess sneaking away.

"She didn't run away. Is the princess brain sick?"

This result made Xu Qian quite surprised. In his opinion, this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to escape. From then on, the sky is high and the sea is wide.

Get rid of the identity of the princess, no longer have to worry about the fear of becoming a "medicine.".

Is she not willing to give up the honor and wealth brought by the status of princess? Well, through these days of getting along, she is actually more like a girl who has never been in the world. She is arrogant and willful, and she has no social atmosphere.

What's more, it's important that honor and wealth have life?

From her usual tone of mentioning King Huai, she has no feelings for her husband in name..... Well, sometimes she is in a daze at night, showing a negative and pessimistic attitude..... Is she desperate for the fate that she can't resist? What a miserable woman.

Xu Qian set out on the road in the night, walked around the city for a long time, and finally stopped at the gate of a brothel called "Yayin building".

As I have said before, most of the brothels in the third and fourth class are named "building, class and shop".

"Ya Yin Lou" can only be regarded as a middle and lower class brothel, but in a small county like Sanhuang County, it is probably the highest standard brothel.

The women in colorful clothes and Luo skirts came and went at the door, smiling and talking.

That night watchman's dark son is a seafood merchant of Ya Yin Lou. The flower's name is Cai Er.

The watchmen are all over Dafeng. They have all kinds of occupations. Only in this way can they collect information in an all-round way.

Before leaving the capital, Wei Yuan gave Xu Qi'an a list with the contact information, name and information of dark sons from all over Chuzhou.

"Oh, sir, please come inside, please come inside."

When Fang Fu stepped into the hall, a bustard came to meet him. He searched Xu Qi'an's whole body with venomous eyes. He was dressed in ordinary clothes, but he was handsome.

The most important thing is the appearance of customers!

The pimp is warm on the surface, but in fact, she is a little stiff. Because she doesn't know the rank of the other party, she is not sure about her enthusiasm, and she is afraid of irritating the guests.

At this time, he saw Xu Qian open his arm.In the brothel, this is a sign that the procuress hugs her arm to show her closeness.

As soon as you see, it's the old lady's approval......

the procuress's face with heavy make-up is smiling, as if she saw her family. She eagerly took Xu Qi'an's arm and dripped: "officer, please sit here first and have a cup of tea. I'll pick some pretty girls for you..."

before she finished, Xu Qi'an interrupted with a wave and said: "I'm looking for caier."

"Oh, you're not here. Cai'er has a guest. Would you like to see another girl?" Procuress smile unchanged.

"I just want to pick." Xu Qi'an takes off his purse and throws it to the procuress.

"This..."

the procuress leads Xu Qi'an to the second floor in embarrassment, but she smiles in her heart. Compared with the white silver, what are the rules?

In brothels, there are too many cases of fighting for a girl. Fighting is not a matter. It's a big deal to blow out the troublemakers. Of course, the boom is to give less money, or no background.

Two people came to a room door, inside came the voice of men and women work, bed "creak" sound.

Xu Qian kicked open the door, startled the men and women in the room, saw on the bed, a fat middle-aged man, pressure on a beautiful woman.

The man's face was frightened and looked at the door. Then he looked like he was going to kill people. He yelled, "get out of here."

But it was the gorgeous woman whose eyes lit up when she saw the handsome young man without a couple.

Don't be angry... Well, this kind of thing, a man will be very angry. Xu Qi'an strode forward, put on a dandy's jealous posture, took the man out of bed and beat him.

"Brother, brother, have something to say..."

after two punches and one kick, the man realized that he was not an opponent when he realized that his opponent's strength was frightening, and resolutely begged for mercy.

"Get dressed and get out." Xu Qian scolded.

The man quickly put on the underwear, and then grabbed the coat and trousers, flurried away.

Standing at the door of the house, the procuress looks at cai'er on the bed, who shakes her head slightly.

She didn't know the handsome man.

The procuress is too lazy to take care of it. With a smile on her face, she says, "don't disturb the two of you to spend the Spring Festival together, pick up the children, and serve the guests well."

Then close the door.

Xu Qi'an sat down at the round table, listening to the sound of the procuress's footsteps away, and then the sound of trampling on the wooden stairs...

caier sat up, revealing her white upper body, and her face was still red. She said with a smile, "little Xianggong, what are you waiting for? I'm in bed waiting for you."

As she spoke, she looked at the handsome strange man.

As far as she is concerned, the man in her body has changed from a big bellied old man to a top-notch handsome brother, which is a good thing.

Xu Qi'an, who has confirmed that there is no abnormality around him, stares at cai'er and says leisurely: "green clothes servant."

The woman knelt down on the bed with four words of regret

The secret code is right..... The portrait is also right..... Xu Qi'an nodded and said in a deep voice: "put on your clothes, I have something to ask you."

Caier converges, picks up the Luo skirt on the ground and puts it on her body. Then she begins to wear a small dress. Soon, she will wear it neatly.

This is a woman who looks like dust on the surface, but in fact she is a watchman. She looks at Xu Qian and says, "my Lord, can I see your waist tag?"

"Yes."

Xu Qi'an took out her waist tag and put it on the table. The waist tag is silver-plated. On the back is the watchman's anti-counterfeiting pattern, and on the front is the word "Xu".

Caier pursed her mouth, moved her eyes from waist tag to Xu Qi'an, looked at him with a kind of adoring eyes, and asked, "you are Xu Qi'an, Xu Yinluo?"

Xu Qian laughed: "do you know me?"

"Of course, if you are a young genius in the yamen, you will not be able to collect intelligence."

Caier's face was excited and said: "I know everything about you. You are a great poet. You are a God in solving cases. In the year of Beijing investigation, the capital was in a precarious state. It was up to you to turn the tide back. That's how the storm was calmed.

"I also know that when you defeated Buddha and Rohan in the capital, and when you were in Yunzhou, you stood alone against tens of thousands of rebels, and you were famous..."

Xu Qian's smile froze.

Really, who is blowing on me? Have they all come to Beijing? In the eyes of experts who are really knowledgeable, I have become a laughing stock, right?

"Cough!"

He coughed and said, "don't talk about it. I ask you, how are things in the north? Is there a large-scale war?"

Tsai'er shook his head: "although the barbarians invaded the border, they were looted by small groups of cavalry. They robbed for a while in the East and for a while in the West. If there is a large-scale war, the people will flee to the south. They are bound to pass by Sanhuang County, and I will not be unaware of it. "Xu Qi'an nodded and asked, "are there any strange phenomena in various places, such as sudden mass disappearances?"

Caier frowned, thought for a moment, and said: "I didn't collect the corresponding information... However, as you remind me, I think of one thing, which is very strange."

Xu Qian raised his eyebrows and asked, "what's the matter?"

"A while ago, my family received a guest. He was a master with his own caravan. He sold goods all year round in Chuzhou. After being sealed off for three times, the officers and soldiers of the western county complained.

"He had to go all the way in vain, and all the people lost a few hundred taels of silver."

"Where is Xikou county?" he said

Caier said politely, "just a moment."

She pulled out the box from the bottom of her bed. At the bottom of the box was a map of the earthquake. She took it out, spread it out on the table, pointed to a place and said, "this is Xikou county."

Xikou county is located in the westernmost part of Chuzhou. It is close to the Buddhist territory of the western regions. Beyond Xikou county is the boundary of the western regions, so it is named.

Xikou county does not border on the north.

"The war can't go there unless the barbarians in the north make a detour, but the Buddhist kingdom in the western regions won't take the route... In this case, why block Xikou county?"

A bold guess emerged in Xu Qi'an's mind.

He nodded quietly and said, "what else do you want to add?"

Caier said: "I don't know outside, but Sanhuang county's defense force has increased a lot. In the past, there was no need to guide people to get in and out, but now it is very strict."

Xu Qian laughed: "is it something happened in recent days?"

Who knows to pick son to shake head, way: "a month ago like this."

Hearing the speech, Xu Qi'an's eyebrows suddenly wrinkled.
