The shopkeeper wrote down the news that Yintian had inquired about in the past few days, as well as their long-term observations, and handed them to Cao Wen.

Cao Wen was almost killed in the battleground, he also personally observed in the Western Regions Tavern for a few days, the people who came in and out did have discrepancies, the key problem was that their guests suddenly disappeared, and they didn't care about the battle, and they didn't report to the official, there was a big problem here!

Now that Yintian's identity may have been exposed, they can no longer live in the battleground to find out the news, and what they are most worried about now is that they can't find a suitable time to make trouble.

Cao Wen had already told Prince Meng about this matter, and Prince Meng promised that as long as the time was right, even if King Jiang Ming did not send people, he would first send his own soldiers out to control the battleground and Luan Fenglou, and he must not let these traitors who made a lot of war fortune escape!

What's more, Prince Meng had long heard that there was a place in the capital, which was full of young girls, and so many officials and nobles went, but Prince Meng did not go, mainly because he felt that it was not appropriate for a prince to appear in this kind of place at this time.

It's not because of how noble he is, if it weren't for the war now, he would definitely go.

Now that he knew about it, he was glad he wasn't involved.

If all the girls are bought from poor families, forget it, after all, you are willing to do this kind of thing. But if these girls are abducted, then it is a serious problem.

Prince Meng didn't tell anyone about this matter, after the fall of King Zuozheng, many people were in a wait-and-see state, because King Jiang Ming had a staff member surnamed Qin who had been very powerful recently, and it was hard to guarantee that he would not be the second King Zuozheng.

The prince's faction suffered a lot of losses in the war, and its strength was not as good as before, the fewer people who knew about this matter, the better, and it was really bold to dare to commit such a crime in the capital territory, and maybe some of the royal relatives would be involved in it, so if the time was not ripe, Prince Meng's old fritter was absolutely hidden.

Yintian found that the people from the Western Regions who were in the store all the time every day were suddenly absent these days, and the shopkeeper insisted on pressing Yintian behind the counter.

Yintian asked where the shopkeeper had gone? The shopkeeper rolled his eyes: "How do I know!"

"Isn't he your senior brother?"

"He's my ancestor!" The shopkeeper was a little busy, there were suddenly a lot of customers in the store recently, and the shopkeeper was not there, he was busy!

Although Xiangyun also came to help, most of the guests were much less interested in eating after seeing her.

Fortunately, there is Xiangyun, as soon as the guest complains, she walks over to appease, and sings a song or something after a while, and the shopkeeper mutters: "I'm about to become a green building!"

Yintian couldn't leave for a few days, so she had to send someone to inform Haoyue, Haoyue was also very understanding, so she directly asked someone to send her redemption price, Yintian opened it curiously and took a look, good guy, the lion opened his mouth widely, 300,000 taels to redeem a half-old?

Yintian didn't plan to really ransom people, but he had a good calculation and used it strongly, so he asked someone to bring a message over to say that the money code was no problem, and asked the bustard to wait for him to choose a good day and an auspicious day to come over and hold a "hanging clothes" ceremony with Haoyue.

He thought so, and when everything was ready, he set the night of the encirclement and suppression of the battleground and Luan Fenglou as the day for him and Haoyue to "hang their clothes", so that everything would be solved.

It's just that now they are suffering from the fact that there is no evidence to prove that there is any direct connection between Luan Fenglou and the place of contention, and they can't explain anything just by the few words they heard.

Yintian suddenly understood why the shopkeeper was gone, and he probably went to investigate, but didn't they just say that they were not suitable to participate in the investigation? Why did they go again now?

He couldn't ask about these things from the shopkeeper's mouth, but fortunately, he returned the jade pendant and the letter to himself before the shopkeeper left, otherwise he would really think that the shopkeeper had run away with his own things!

It's not that Yintian doesn't trust others, it's just that these two things on him are too important to him!

Not long after, one night, in the middle of the night, a man stood at the door of the Western Regions Tavern, his clothes ragged and his face covered with ash.

Yintian looked at this person and felt strange, so he walked over and asked, "This brother, what's wrong with you?"

The man asked in a hoarse voice, "Can you enjoy a meal?" I haven't eaten for a few days!"

Yintian immediately greeted the shopkeeper, and when the shopkeeper saw this person, he quickly pulled him into the lobby, arranged for him to sit down, and brought four small dishes from the back kitchen that had been prepared a long time ago and put them on the table.

This person did not pick up the chopsticks and eat them like ordinary people who have been hungry for many days, but slowly picked up the chopsticks, and after aligning them on the table, he looked up and saw that Yintian had not come, and said to the shopkeeper: "They have tunnels, and people are carried out through tunnels and piled up in the big pits in the wilderness." Some of the people in there were rotten, and it was cold now, so they didn't plan to bury them. In the past, it was buried once a month, and the so-called burial was to fill the big pit with soil and step on it. ”

"Where's Luan Fenglou?"

"The girls are all locked up in the courtyard of a staff member surnamed Qin, just a wall away from Luanfeng Tower, and no one knows that it is his in this courtyard, and the children are locked up there to play for those dignitaries and nobles, hum! These dogs and things are all not going to die well! If I have soldiers, I will destroy them all!"

"If such a court can't grow, naturally someone will be destroyed!" said the shopkeeper, and he asked again, "Do you still want to go?"

"No, I just pretended to be a ghost to scare them for a while, it is estimated that no one will go to the old burial pit in a short time, you can find someone to tell Prince Meng, I need his soldiers." ”

It turns out that this ragged man called Hanako is the man from the Western Regions, that is, the Tian Baojiao we mentioned earlier, in fact, Tian Baojiao is just an identity he once had, this person has never left the capital, after all, this is the place where he has lived for many years, and many things are very clear.

His disguise technique is very special, basically pretending to be whom, no one has seen his true face, even the shopkeeper who calls him a senior brother doesn't know what his true face is.

Just now, the shopkeeper recognized him because he made a gesture to the shopkeeper that was only between them, otherwise the shopkeeper might have kicked this Hanako out. Now it's different, the shopkeeper has been helping him prepare a meal at night, just hoping that when he comes back, there will be something to eat, and he and the shopkeeper have made an appointment to come back in the middle of the night, so it's easier to hide his tracks!
