The boat reached the next pier, and Liu Baohui abandoned the boat and went ashore. She wanted to investigate clues from each pier.

It was not until Liu Baohui's figure completely disappeared that Pearl retracted her gaze and looked at Zhou Saochen with admiration: "Sister, this is how do you punish the gang members usually?"

Zhou Saochen's mouth twitched: "I have seen it for the first time. This time I haven't come in vain, I've seen it."

"Ah? Sister, even you have seen it for the first time?" Zhenzhu couldn't believe it. When he was in Pingcheng, he had seen Zhou Saochen and Zhou's removal methods. Since then, he thought that the most ruthless character of the Cao Gang was these two.

Zhou Saochen seemed to be able to understand the narration in his heart, and snorted coldly: "Do you know how the scar on Liu Baohui's face came from?"

"How did it come from?" Pearl didn't want to guess. What happened last night had subverted his perception and he could no longer guess anything.

"It was her own scratch," Zhou Saochen smiled and said in the tone of a storyteller, "Liu Baohui's father died early, and her mother was very partial. Once, her brother fought with someone and broke the child's arm with a stone. The family wanted ten taels of silver. Guess what her mother did? Ha, her mother dragged Liu Baohui to the family and said that her daughter was ten years old and could be worth ten taels of silver, so she gave it to the family."

Since seeing the Yan family, Zhenzhu is now very down-to-earth. He sighed: "It's all because he's too poor."

"Poor? Nothing poor!" Zhou Saochen spat, "Although her family is an orphan and widowed mother, she is not poor. She has more than 20 acres of paddy fields in her family and hires tenants to farm. Her mother thought that her brother didn't study well in the countryside, so she took her brother to move into the county town and bought a house in the county town. She was poor? Which poor family did you see, and you said that you could buy a house in the city?"

Pearl hurriedly asked, "What about it later?"

"Later? The family was a family of animals. Liu Baohui was only ten years old and was given by the old man and son of that family... Liu Baohui escaped from that family. She scratched her face with a knife and mixed among a bunch of beggars. A year later, the eldest lady passed by and happened to see Liu Baohui who was being chased by several beggars. The eldest lady saved her. Since then, Liu Baohui has given her life to the eldest lady."

"What about her mother, brother, and that family of beasts?" asked Zhenzhu.

"A few years later, Liu Baohui passed by her hometown and learned that the old beast was dead. Liu Baohui dug his grave, fed the body to the wild dog, and set a fire in the house. It is said that only one girl survived. Liu Baohui stuffed the knife to the girl and asked the girl to take revenge. The girl threw the knife and ran away."

Zhou Saochen sighed again: "As for her mother and younger brother, I don't know, Liu Baohui has never mentioned them."

After six or seven days of the boat, he got ashore at a pier. Zhou Saochen and Zhenzhu bought horses. The two rode horses over the mountains and ridges, and finally arrived in Shifeng County three days later.

There was only one inn in the county town, and the two of them lived there. Zhenzhu was so idle. When the waiter came to deliver hot water, Zhenzhu asked the waiter about which was the most lively place in Feng County at this time and which restaurant was the best.

The next day, news from two foreigners came from the county town and it spread to the county government.

Since I handed the secret letter to the capital, the magistrate's heart has not calmed down. It is like horses galloping, unable to sleep well, and not eating well. The magistrate's wife also lost a lot of hair and asked people to guard the city gate every day.

The confidant ran in from outside: "Madam, Madam, two new people from other places have come to the inn."

The magistrate's wife frowned. Although Shifeng County was remote, it was not so close that people from other places would make a fuss.

"I asked you to guard the city gate, who told you to go to the inn?" the magistrate's wife complained.

"The young man goes to the city gate every day, but he doesn't see the convoy coming from the capital. Instead, today, I heard from the little Russians in the inn that there were two people talking about the official language in their shop."

"Mandarin?" The magistrate's wife was inspired. In Shifeng County, except for the several imperial officials appointed by the county government, there was no official language in the court. Even the gentlemen in the school gave lectures in dialects. "What are those two people?"

The confidant said, "It's a man and a woman. The two are riding horses. The men ride horses and the women ride too. The men talk more and the women talk less. The two look like siblings. The little Russian said that the woman seems to be difficult to mess with. He looked at her curiously, and the woman looked at her with a knife, as if she wanted to kill someone."

The magistrate's wife was heartbroken. There was no one in the court and the person was honest. The most extraordinary thing she did in her life was to send a secret letter to Princess Rui.

For this reason, the couple couldn't sleep all night. They guessed Princess Rui's reaction when she saw the secret letter, and even worried that Princess Rui would not bear to bear his father and would use their rumor to attack them.

To be honest, my master has long regretted it and regretted sending letters to the capital.

The magistrate's wife did not regret it. She raised her head and slashed her lowered her sword. Since it was just one sword, she would have to understand.

Originally, the magistrate's wife thought that at least a few more people would be sent, at least one of them could teach her master how to deal with the aftermath, so she asked someone to go to the city gate to wait for the convoy every day. But now when she heard the description of her confidant, she felt that the man and woman might be really sent by Princess Rui.

"Then you go and keep an eye on it and see what they are doing." The magistrate's wife reminded.

Soon, Zhenzhu and Zhou Sauchen noticed someone was following him.

"Unprofessional, not a killer, nor a spy," said Pearl.

Zhou Saochen glanced at him and said, "Professional? How can you just say some fresh words?"

Pearl grinned: "The princess said it, I learned it when I heard it."

Zhou Saochen nodded: "So that's it. It's the lyrics in the book. No wonder the princess used to always say things she could understand. She didn't know before, but now when she thinks about it, it's all the words."

The two of them didn't take it seriously, just keep an eye on it, anyway, I can't keep an eye on it for a while.

Sure enough, the confidant returned to Houya and was depressed: "In a blink of an eye, the young man lost the person."

Apart from knowing that the two of them were still living in that inn, they didn’t know anything else, nor did they know where they had been.

Zhou Saochen and Zhenzhu quickly found out the situation.

Mr. Yan Er went to the countryside again. It is said that he has been in the countryside for a while. He came back a few days ago and just took the clothes to change and left again.

Old Mrs. Guo suffered a stroke and now she is slumped in the bed. She cries and scolds every day.

As for the Gao and Liu families that Yan Xuehuai mentioned, they left Shifeng County a few months ago.

Only Yan Zhaoshi and his family are still living in Shifeng.

As for Yan Zhaoshi's new wife, Tian, ​​hehe, it's a coincidence that next to the inn where Zhou Saochen and Zhenzhu lived was a restaurant run by Mr. Wu.

Pearl simply asked the shopkeeper to change a room. When he opened the window, he could see the back door of the restaurant.

That's right, it's the back door, this is the experience that Pearl has gained from Li Shiji's guy.

There is a Master Jia in the capital. He and Li Yunpan have the same hobbies and all like handsome actors.

Li Yunpan was righteous and open. I was rich and no one could care about it.

Mr. Jia is different. Mr. Jia has a wife, a daughter and a fame, so he can only like it secretly.

For this love, Mr. Jia walked through all the back doors of restaurants of all sizes in the capital, and arranged the back door clearly.

Hard work pays off. On the third day, Zhenzhu saw a beautiful and elegant lady at the back door.

The little lady was wearing a light green shirt, a moon-white skirt, and a woman's bun, but a golden hairpin was inserted into the bun.

Pearl shook his head: "I really can't dress up. If I'm a woman, wearing such an elegant dress, I have to wear a jade hairpin or a silver hairpin, or wear a pearl flower."

Pearl smacked her lips and looked up and saw Zhou Saochen staring at him: "Boy, I didn't expect you to have this habit. Can't you marry a wife?"

Pearl: What kind of habit do I have? Besides, can I blame me if I can’t marry a wife? Qi Ye has just married a wife.

"It's her?" Zhou Saochen asked.

"That's right, it must be her, just like the grocery store owner at the entrance of the alley." Zhenzhu not only knew Tian Zhenzhen's appearance, but she also found out what Mr. Wu looked like.

"Well, wait a little longer." Zhou Saochen nodded.

After waiting for a cup of tea, the two left the inn and walked into the restaurant.

Although Shifeng County is poor, no matter how poor the place is, there will be several rich families, otherwise Wu Yuanwai would not have opened such a big restaurant.

This time is not the time to visit guests, neither noon nor evening, there is no one in the restaurant, and several friends are whispering, secretly glances at the upstairs from time to time.

The boss is upstairs, with the pretty young wife.

"Is there a private room?" Pearl's voice suddenly rang, which scared several guys.

I saw it again and saw that this was a foreigner living in the inn next door. He came to eat every day these days and had to have a private room every time.

But at this time today, they have also come back.

Although these two are also a man and a woman, no one dares to think about that.

First of all, the man calls the woman "sister", and the two are quite different in age.

Secondly, although the man was smart, the woman had a cold face, and it looked hard to meet each other. No one dared to put such things on this woman.

"Two guests, please come upstairs." The guy greeted warmly, and the private rooms in their restaurant were all upstairs.

Zhou Saochen still had a stern face and a serious face. Pearl laughed with her, like a little brother who was afraid of annoying her sister.

I let the two of them into the private room and ordered a few cold dishes, which were all served quickly.

When the dishes were served, Pearl said to the guy, "You guys go and do it quickly. My sister doesn't like there are outsiders next to you."

After sending the guy away, the two of them were speechless and had a meal.

After finishing a bowl of rice, Zhou Saochen asked, "Is the time almost done?"

Zhou Saochen has killed many people and caught many people, but she has never caught a traitor. She has no experience in this regard.

Pearl has no experience, but since Chai Yan gave him to Yan Xuehuai, he has been in the market and has seen and heard of it even if he has never done it.

In this area, pearls are richer than Zhou Saichen.

In the private room, Tian Zhenzhen snuggled in Wu Yuanwai's arms. Although Wu Yuanwai is middle-aged, he is tall and strong, far from comparable to a scholar Yan Zhaoshi.

After being with Mr. Wu, Tian Zhenzhen felt that all her twenty years in the past were in vain.

Her favorite Cai Bo is very handsome, but she is too young after all. Compared with Mr. Wu, Cai Bo is just a hurry and reckless boy.

As for brother-in-law Zhang Xiucai, that man did too much vulgar things, like a lamp without oil. How big a fire can he burn?

Not to mention Yan Zhaoshi, this person usually likes to hold him, but he still holds him when he is on the bed. He obviously can't do it, so he still has to say what can he stop at the right time, I'm gonna do it!

......After the first round, Tian Zhen was in Wu Yuanwai's arms, humming, which made Wu Yuanwai's outside confused and prepared to go to the second round again.

At this moment, there was a loud bang, and the thick carved wooden door was knocked open from outside and fell to the ground!

Mr. Wu and Tian Zhenzhen were shocked. The two even forgot to shout and stared at the two people who broke in.

"Ah, you, the one who kills Qiandao, is actually looking for a woman outside without telling me!"

Zhou Saochen rushed over with a quick step and reached out to grab Wu Yuanwai's face.

Mr. Wu finally reacted and wanted to get up to dodge, but Pearl pressed his shoulder: "Dare to bully my sister, let's see how I deal with you!"
