Translator: 549690339

Since ancient times, cities with ports behind them had always been prosperous. Yellow oil County’s County city was not large, but its streets were wide and straight, and pedestrians were weaving in and out of it, making it very lively.

Xu Qi ‘an stood on the dock and looked around. Porters and coolies were coming and going, sweating.

With a sweep of his eyes, he locked onto a Foreman who was holding an account book and drinking tea under the pergola. He walked over and looked down at the foreman with one hand on the knife.

The foreman looked at Xu Qi ‘an and the silver and copper Gong emblems embroidered on the chests of the Watchmen behind him. Even though he did not know the watchman’s uniform, the watchman’s reputation was well-known even among the common people.

This, this was the legendary night watchman? The foreman was puzzled as he stood up and bowed. “Milords, do you have any orders?”

As he spoke, he took out a handful of silver from his pocket and handed it over with both hands.

Xu Qi ‘an didn’t look at it and said straightforwardly, ‘”‘You’re a Foreman?”

Xu Qi ‘an nodded slowly. He looked at the busy porters and asked, “”Have there been any refugees from the North recently?”

“Refugees?”

The foreman thought for a moment and shook his head. no, but I heard that there is a war in the North. The barbarians are burning, killing, and pillaging everywhere. Fortunately, the North Garrison King is guarding it. Otherwise, Chuzhou would have been lost long ago.

“Do you really respect the North vanquishing Prince?” Xu Qi ‘an’s tone was emotionless.

of course. North vanquishing Prince is Da Feng’s God of War and the number one master in Da Feng. It is because of him that the North is stable. The foreman showed a look of admiration.

When did the North vanquishing Prince become the God of War? the great God of War was obviously the Duke of Wei … Xu Qi ‘an left with the silver gongs and copper gongs.

Under the pergola, the foreman looked at their departing figures and wondered, ‘”‘You don’t even want silver? Is there something wrong with his brain?”

After walking around the city for two hours, Xu Qi ‘an had sat in restaurants and bars. He even took the initiative to strike up a conversation with beggars. The accompanying Watchmen noticed that Xu Qi ‘an had another purpose for this trip.

The so-called hooking up and listening to music was just a pretense. “Lord Xu, what are you trying to find out?” A silver Gong asked.

“I’m here to find out about the refugees.”

Xu Qi ‘an stood on the side of the street with one hand on his saber. He frowned and said, ” there’s something very strange. I don’t know if you’ve noticed. An experienced silver Gong thought for a moment and replied, ‘

“No refugees? There’s nothing strange about that. We’ve just arrived at Jiang

Zhou, and we’re still at least ten days away from Chu Zhou. And this was by sea. If they took the land route, it would take at least half a month. The refugees may not have been able to escape from Chu Zhou to this place.”

Xu Qi ‘an shook his head, glanced at him, and snorted. “Have you forgotten what case we’re here to investigate?”

The four silver gongs were shocked and immediately understood Xu Qi ‘an’s meaning.

Such actions usually happened on large-scale battlefields that lasted for a long time and involved a considerable number of troops.

And if a war of this scale happened, it would definitely cause disaster victims everywhere. Even if Jiang Zhou was far from Chu Zhou, there might still be some lucky people among the refugees who successfully escaped.

But he didn’t.

This case is more complicated than I thought … Xu Qian’s heart sank, and his emotions inevitably sank. However, he glanced at his colleagues around him and saw their worried expressions. He immediately snorted and said slowly in a very proud tone, ” this is interesting. This is the case that I want to solve. It’s boring if it’s too simple.

Lord Xu had. wealth of experience. Although he had only been employed for. short period of time, the storms and waves he had experienced were things that others could never experience in their entire lives … When the night watchmen recalled the major cases that Xu yinluo had been through, they suddenly felt much more at ease.

Before lunch, Xu Qi ‘an returned to the official ship with a food box and a few pieces of uncarved yellow jade.

He first placed the yellow oil Jade in the room, then carried the food box and went up to the third floor. He came to a room in the corner and knocked on the door. “Who is it?”

The old lady’s slightly irritable but weak voice came from the room.

“It’s me,” he said.

Xu Qi ‘an said with a smile.

Upon hearing his voice, there was no more movement from inside, and the door was not opened. It seemed that he was planning to leave it alone. Fu wenpei, open the door. I know you’re at home. If you have the ability to seduce men, then open the door.

Xu Qi ‘an was a b * tch.

“Chi …

The door opened, and an old lady in a green maidservant’s dress said angrily, “”What nonsense are you talking about?”

This lecher was talking about seducing men in front of her room. He was too much. Although she was just an ordinary maidservant now, maidservants also had a reputation.

No one heard him … you’re not Fu wenpei, ” Xu Qi ‘an chuckled. why are you angry? ‘

Seeing that the old lady rolled her eyes and was about to close the door again, Xu Qi ‘an quickly said, “”1 brought you lunch.”

“Are you really that kind?” the old lady laughed.

“Seeing your complexion this morning, I knew you didn’t sleep well yesterday.

You must be seasick. I’m sure you didn’t eat lunch, so I bought you some food.”

Xu Qi ‘an entered the house and glanced around. The house was clean and tidy. It looked like it was cleaned every day.

He placed the lunchbox on the table, opened the lid, and laid out the dishes one by one.

The old lady took a few glances and found that they were all dishes she had never seen before. She couldn’t help but ask, “What dish is this?”

glazed lungs are quite delicious. It’s one of the signature dishes of the best restaurant in yellow oil County. I’ve also bought you other signature dishes. Xu Qi ‘an said.

“I don’t feel like eating.”

The old lady said lightly.

She was not feeling well and had no appetite. Furthermore, she had been pampered in the Wang Residence all these years, what good food had she not eaten? The delicacies that the commoners could only see but not get their hands on were just ordinary to her.

“But I’m sure you’ll like this bowl.” Xu Qi ‘an placed a bowl of soup on the table.

The old lady took a look and saw that it was dark and looked terrible. She immediately frowned in disgust and said, “Trying to curry favor for no reason … What’s your purpose? just say it. ‘

I was just waiting for you to say that … Xu Qi ‘an sat at the table and coughed.”Your Princess Consort is here too?”

When she heard the word ” Princess “, her eyebrows twitched slightly. She nodded calmly. yes.

“Why is the princess Consort in the group? As for me, the organizer, I didn’t know about this beforehand.” Xu Qi ‘an asked with a smile.

“Do you think I would know?” The old lady said in a bad mood, seemingly unwilling to talk more. She urged, “If there’s nothing else, then get lost. I’m going to sleep.”

Xu Qi ‘an had to leave.

After the annoying stinky man left, she closed the door again. She was about to put the food back into the lunchbox when she suddenly smelled a sour and spicy smell. This smell seemed to be an invisible hand that grabbed her stomach.

The smell was coming from the bowl of soup.

The taste seemed to be okay … She sat by the table and took a spoonful of the soup.

The sour and spicy taste instantly opened her taste buds and aroused her appetite. Gulp. Her throat unconsciously swallowed and she drank a tew mouthfuls in a row.

After she finished the soup, she finally felt hungry. When she looked at the food on the table again, she seemed to be very attractive.

“Dong Dong. ”

There was a knock on the door, followed by Chu Xianglong’s voice, ‘”‘lt’s me,” he said.

“The door isn’t locked. Come in.” The old lady replied in a cold and calm voice.

Chu Xianglong pushed the door open and saw the princess Consort sitting at the table, eating with great relish.

Deputy general Yi frowned and sent a message, ‘”What is your relationship with him? just nod and shake your head.” He knew that Xu Qi ‘an had just delivered the food.

The Queen shook her head.

Chu Xianglong’s eyes sharpened. it’s alright. Did he bring you lunch? ”

Wangfei still shook her head.

Chu Xianglong stared at her for a moment and accepted her answer reluctantly. He sighed at how charming the princess Consort was. Men couldn’t help but get close to her and understand her.

“Wangfei, please remember your identity and don’t be too close to unrelated people.” He warned her with a voice transmission and left the room.

There was no sound during the entire process.

There were not only gongs and Yang Yan on the boat, but also other martial artists. Martial artists had sharp eyes and ears, and the saying that the walls had ears was most appropriate.

“Not knowing anything is also a type of information. I guessed it right. It doesn’t seem to be that simple for the princess of zhenbei to go to the North

“A secret trip that even I, the organizer, didn’t know about. Moreover, the number of guards he brought was abnormal, too few. This could be understood as keeping a low profile. En, travelling with the diplomatic mission was not only low-key, but also had sufficient guards.

“The question is, why do you have to do this?”

Xu Qi ‘an returned to his room and sat at the table, frowning in deep thought.

“Why is the princess going to the North in such a mysterious way? is it because the title of the most beautiful woman in the world is too ostentatious? This was obviously not the case. In Da Feng, who would dare to have any ideas about the wife of the North-guarding King? Even I, who has been uninhibited and loves freedom my entire life, have never had such thoughts.

“According to the analysis of his actions, Emperor Yuan jing does not want the news of wangfei leaving the capital to be widely known. But this didn’t make any sense. Why would a mere Princess Consort need to hide from her husband?

“Unless this Princess Consort isn’t simple and is involved with some confidential information? As such, there were only two reasons for secretly following the diplomatic mission:First, it involved a secret plan, so it had to be kept confidential. Second, it might be accompanied by danger, so it needs the protection of the diplomatic corps?”

Thinking of this, Xu Qi ‘an’s pupils contracted slightly, and his eyes became sharp.
