when I was drinking tea just now, I observed that the soldiers guarding the city are particularly concerned about adult men who travel alone. Not only do they have to check their travel passes, but they also have to touch their faces. Xu Qi ‘an said.

“Touch my face?” Wangfei was stunned for a moment before she reacted. She lowered her voice sneakily. “Check if you’re in disguise?”

You’re not stupid … Xu Qi ‘an nodded. they’re definitely not looking for you, because the one who was captured by the barbarians would not be alone. No wonder he suddenly suggested drinking tea and resting under the gazebo …

Wangfei suddenly realized.

Moreover, an area like sanhuang County, which was close to the Jiang Prefecture, would not be the target of the barbarians. Such a strict inspection was unreasonable in itself.

“In addition, from this matter, it can be seen that the phrase” massacre the three thousand li “is definitely not empty talk. Otherwise, the North vanquishing Prince’s men wouldn’t be so cautious.” Xu Qi ‘an sneered.

If he did not have a guilty conscience, he would not have been so afraid of the legendary expert in solving cases, the mighty Xu yinluo.

The two of them found an Inn in the city and asked for a high-class room. Once the door was closed, the obedient wangfei flew into a rage and said,

“You just want to take advantage of me, just like those lecherous people in the novels. They deliberately only booked one room.”

What’s the name of the original? let’s talk about it … Xu Qi ‘an smiled and said, “if you’re willing to take off your bracelet, I’ll be happy to spend the night with you.” As for your current appearance.”

He pointed to the dressing table by the window and said awkwardly, “”Look in the mirror first.”

Wang Fei gritted her teeth in anger and rolled her eyes at him. She sneered and retorted,”Alright, then you’ll sleep on the bed and I’ll sleep on the bed. If you touch me, you’ll be a beast.

alright, I’m going to take a bath. Please leave.

So many days had passed, and she was not as guarded against Xu Qi ‘an as before. She knew that he would probably not touch her. However, her proud personality and quarreling habits made it difficult for her to get along with Xu ningyan.

“I’m not coming back tonight. Sleep early.” Xu Qi ‘an waved his hand, turned around, and walked to the door.

“Where are you going?” The Queen’s expression changed.

Although she didn’t want to admit it, this guy had indeed given her a sense of security for a long time. She was a little unaccustomed to his sudden departure, and she didn’t feel confident.

since I’m in sanhuang County, I’m going to look for sanhuang chicken. Xu Qi ‘an replied.

When the Queen heard this, she immediately smiled. “I want to go too. I want to eat too.”

“I’m going to a brothel!” Xu Qi ‘an said angrily.

The Queen sat on the edge of the bed and turned her body sideways in a fit of pique. She turned her head away, showing him the back of her head.

In the alley across the street from the inn, Xu Qi ‘an had been watching the inn for an hour, but he did not see any suspicious people following him, nor did he see the princess sneaky away.

she didn’t escape. Is there something wrong with the princess? ‘

This result surprised Xu Qi ‘an. In his opinion, this was a rare opportunity to escape. From then on, birds could fly high in the sky, and fish could leap in the vast sea.

She would no longer have to worry about becoming a “medicinal herb” after getting rid of her identity as a Princess Consort.

Was she not willing to give up the glory and wealth that came with her status as a Princess? Well, after getting along with her for the past few days, she was actually more like an inexperienced girl, proud and willful, and she didn’t have the aura of a prostitute.

Besides, could wealth be more important than life?

From the way she usually talked about King Huai, it seemed that she had no feelings for her husband in name … Well, sometimes she would daydream at night and show a negative and pessimistic attitude … Was he despairing about his fate that he could not resist? What a tragic woman.

Xu Qi ‘an continued on his journey in the night. After going around the city for a long time, he finally stopped at the entrance of a brothel called ” elegant sound brothel.

As mentioned before (Chapter 21), its specifications could be judged by the suffix of the brothels. First-class and second-class brothels mainly consisted of ” courtvards, restaurants. and Davilions.

Third and fourth-class brothels were mostly named after ‘building, class, and shop’.

The elegant sound brothel could only be considered a medium -low class brothel, but in a small county like sanhuang County, it was probably the highest-class brothel.

A woman in a colorful dress welcomed and sent him off at the door with a smile.

That night watchman’s spy was a seafood merchant from elegant sound restaurant, and her flower name was Cai ‘er.

Night watchmen’s spies were all over Da Feng, from all walks of life, and from all professions. This was the only way to collect information from all directions.

Before they left the capital, Wei Yuan gave Xu Qi ‘an a list of names and contacts of the spies in Chuzhou.

“Yo, this Lord, please come in, please come in.”

As soon as he stepped into the hall, an old brothel Madame came up to him. She searched Xu Qi ‘an’s body with her vicious eyes. She was dressed in ordinary clothes, but she was extremely handsome.

Her appearance was secondary. The most important thing was the bulging purse at her waist. She was a quality customer!

The brothel Madame was warm on the surface, but in fact, she was a little reserved. Because she didn’t know the other party’s rank, she was a little unsure of the degree of enthusiasm, afraid of accidentally offending the guests.

At this moment, he saw Xu Qi ‘an open his arms.

In the brothel, this was a sign for the madam to hug his arm to show intimacy.

He looked like. lecherous old man … The brothel Madame, who had heavy makeup on, smiled as if she had seen her family. She held Xu Qi ‘an’s arm eagerly and said in a sweet voice, ‘

“Sir, please sit here and have some tea. I’ll pick a few pretty girls for you ..

Before he could finish, Xu Qi ‘an waved his hand and interrupted, “”l’m here to find Cai ‘er.”

“Aiya, you’ve come at a bad time. Cai ‘er has a guest, why don’t you take a look at the other girls?” The madam’s smile didn’t change.

“I only want Cai ‘er.” Xu Qi ‘an took off the purse and threw it to the brothel

Madame.

“This …”

The brothel Madame led Xu Qi ‘an up to the second floor with a troubled expression, but she was smiling in her heart. Compared to the silver, what were the rules?

In the brothel, there were too many cases of fighting over a girl. Fighting was not a big deal. At most, they would just throw the troublemaker out. Of course, they were only blasting those who gave less money or those without any background.

The two of them came to the door of a room, and the sound of a man and a woman doing something came from inside, and the bed creaked.

Xu Qi ‘an kicked the door open, startling the man and woman in the room. On the bed, a fat middle-aged man was lying on top of a delicate and beautiful woman.

The man looked at the door in horror, then with a murderous look, he shouted,

“”Get out.”

However, the gorgeous woman’s eyes lit up when she saw the handsome young man.

Don’t be angry … Alright, any man would be furious about this kind of thing. Xu Qi ‘an strode forward, put on a jealous look, picked the man up from the bed, and gave him a good beating.

“Brother, brother, let’s talk this out …”

After taking two punches and a kick, the man realized that the other party’s strength was terrifying. He knew that he was no match for him and decisively begged for mercy.

“Put on your clothes and get out.” Xu Qi ‘an cursed.

The man quickly put on his undergarments, grabbed his coat and pants, and fled in a panic.

Standing at the door, The Procuress shot a questioning look at Cai ‘er, who was lying on the bed, and the latter shook her head slightly.

She didn’t know this handsome man.

The madam was too lazy to care, and she smiled, “I won’t disturb the two of you from spending the night together. Cai ‘er, please properly serve our guest.” With that, he closed the door.

Xu Qi. an sat down at the Round Table. With his hearing enhanced, he heard the footsteps of the brothel Madame moving away, and then the sound of people stepping on the wooden stairs …

Cai ‘er sat up, exposing her white upper body, her face still flushed, and said with a smile, “Little hubby, what are you waiting for? I’ve been waiting anxiously on the bed.”

As she spoke, she sized up this handsome and strange man.

To her, the man on top of her had changed from a big-bellied old man to a handsome young man with top-tier skin. This was a good thing that fell from the sky.

Having already confirmed that there was nothing unusual in the surroundings,

Xu Qi ‘an stared at Cai’ er, and said leisurely,”Green-robed attendant.”

These four simple words caused the expression of the woman on the bed to change drastically. She hurriedly lifted the quilt and got off the bed. She knelt on the ground and said in a low voice, “”A hundred deaths without regrets.”

The secret code was correct … Xiao Xianghua was right too … “Put on your clothes. I have something to ask you,” Xu Qi ‘an said in a deep voice.

Cai ‘er’s charming appearance disappeared, and she picked up the dress on the ground and put it on. She then began to put on her underclothes, and in a short time, she was dressed neatly.

On the surface, this was a prostitute, but in reality, she was the night watchman’s spy. Cai ‘er elegantly saluted him, looking at Xu Qi’ an, and said,”My Lord, may I see your token?”

“Sure.”

Xu Qi ‘an took out his waist tag and placed it on the table. The waist tag was silver-plated, with an anti-counterfeit pattern on the back and a “Xu” character engraved on the front.

Cai ‘er pursed her lips, and shifted her line of sight from the waist tag to Xu Qi’ an, looking at him with a look of adoration,”You … You are Xu Qi ‘an and Xu yinluo?”

“You know me?” Xu Qi ‘an smiled.

“Of course I know. If I don’t even know that a young genius like you has appeared in the Yamen, then my intelligence gathering skills are too low.” Cai ‘er’s face was filled with excitement,”l know everything about you. You are the chief poet of Dafeng, and you are able to solve cases like a god. In the year of the capital’s investigation, the capital was in turmoil, and it was all thanks to you that we were able to turn the tide.”

“I also know how to defeat the Buddhist Arhats in the capital;And when you were in Yunzhou, you single-handedly fended off tens of thousands of rebel soldiers. Your reputation was so great …”

Xu Qi ‘an’s smile froze.

Really, who was bragging about me? It has already spread to the Northern Territory. In the eyes of the experts who really know the field, I have become a complete joke, right?

“Cough, cough!”

He coughed and said, ” let’s cut the chit-chat. Let me ask you. How has the

North been recently? has there been a large-scale war? ”

Cai ‘er shook her head,”although the Barbarian race did invade the border, it was only a small group of cavalry, robbing in the East and then in the West. If there’s a large-scale war, the people will flee to the South, and they will definitely pass by sanhuang County. I know about that.”

yes. Xu Qi ‘an nodded and asked, ” are there any strange phenomena in various places? for example, a sudden large-scale disappearance of people.

Cai ‘er frowned, thinking for a moment,l didn’t gather any relevant information … However, after your reminder, I thought of something that’s very strange.”

Xu Qi ‘an raised his eyebrows and quickly asked, “”What is it?”

“A while ago, I received a guest. He was an old master who owned his own caravan. He sold goods all over Chu Zhou city. That time, he had drunk too much wine and complained that for some reason, the Xikou Prefecture and the three counties under its jurisdiction had been blocked by the soldiers and the official roads had been sealed.

“He made a wasted trip and lost a few hundred taels of silver.” Xu Qi ‘an tapped his fingers on the table. where is Xikou Prefecture? ” “Please wait a moment.” Cai ‘er saluted.

She pulled out the box from under the bed. At the bottom of the box was a geomancy map. She took it out and spread it out on the table. She pointed to a

place and said, “This is the Xikou County.”

Xikou County was located at the westernmost part of Chu Zhou and was close to the Buddhist Kingdom of the Western Region. Beyond Xikou County was the Western Region, hence the name.

Xikou County did not border the North.

“It’s impossible for the war to go there unless the northern barbarians take. detour, but the Buddhist Kingdom in the Western Region won’t take the way … If that’s the case, why did you seal off the West Pass Prefecture?”

A bold guess appeared in Xu Qian’s mind.

He nodded without changing his expression and said, ‘”What else do you want to add?”

Cai ‘er replied,”l don’t know about the outside world, but sanhuang County’s defenses have been strengthened by quite a bit. In the past, there was no need for travel passes, but now, the checks are extremely strict.”

“Is it something that happened in the past few days?” Xu Qi ‘an smiled.

But who knew that Cai ‘er would shake her head, saying, “it was like this a month ago.”

Hearing this, Xu Qi ‘an frowned.
