After Li Dongyang, who secretly returned to Beijing, arranged some things, he hurried to Sanxia Pass, this time he traveled alone, leaving the stone in Longcheng to inquire about the news, and staring at the movements of all parties.

Going to Sanxia Pass will pass through Huaiyin County, although the Criminal Department Shangshu took down the Huaiyin County Order and took the Dragon Slaying Club by the way, Li Dongyang still thinks that things are not so simple.

Shangyuanzong arranged for people to stare at the hanging corner tower, there must be a deep meaning, what is the specific calculation Li Dongyang can't guess, if he wants to take another look, if he is lucky, he may make a new discovery.

Li Dongyang paid the entrance fee and walked slowly into Huaiyin County, and found that the residents here had not changed their outlook because of the change of county order, and the smile on their faces was even rarer, and their expressions were stiff.

These people saw the same hostility as outsiders, and they were wary in the depths of their eyes, as if those who came to Huaiyin County were all bad people.

In such an environment, how did Jia Ruhai integrate into Huaiyin County back then? Or is it that he has not integrated at all, and his every move is under the surveillance of others.

This idea made Li Dongyang feel terrified, a person who has lived in a small town for more than ten years, his every move is monitored, how stupid he is to not find out.

Or did Jia Ruhai always know that he was being watched, so why did he stay under such strong pressure?

Walking on the ancient street and looking at the bluestone ground, Li Dongyang was a little confused, not only did he not find anything abnormal, but he became even more confused.

Walking through the familiar crossroads, I came to the Hanging Corner Tower, not far from the building, a group of old men were playing chess, and they all said that watching chess was a true gentleman, so Li Dongyang saw a group of villains.

The chess players have not yet watched the excitement of chess, the two sides are fighting red-faced, the chess pieces on the chessboard are moving around, and the two chess players are sitting there grinning.

His eyes swept over everyone, but he didn't see the familiar old man Du, I don't know if the other party hasn't come out yet, or he has passed away, and he slowly passed by with gentle steps.

The chess players stopped arguing, looked at Li Dongyang, and were still as vigilant as ever, so they sent out one person to block the road and ask 100,000 why.

The last time I passed by, I was chased into a dog by the daughter of the county order's family, and I don't know where the county daughter, who has a big identity, has gone, whether she is dead or alive.

Maybe she won't die, in the end, she is the emperor's daughter, and she can live a good life by arranging an identity casually, but that noble identity has nothing to do with her.

Passing by the door of Du's house, Li Dongyang tilted his head and glanced a few times, and found that the door plaque hanging there had been changed, and he went to the Lin Mansion.

It seems that this old man Du is more than lucky, and I don't know if the spies left by Qiao Xinran have found anything, but fortunately, he already knows where the mysterious force is, even if the clue is broken, it doesn't matter.

With pity, Li Dongyang continued to move forward, and Li Dongyang, who was looked at by passers-by, was also looking at passers-by, trying to find out people who behaved particularly strangely.

After turning around, Li Dongyang returned to the inn where he stayed last time and booked the same room, and the shopkeeper was hospitable, which was different from the residents of Huaiyin County.

Li Dongyang did not eat in his room during the meal, and went to a nearby tavern, which was also one of the places where information flowed.

The tavern does not have a resounding name, nor does it have a tall door, it is ordinary like a drop of water in the sea.

Walking into the tavern, Li Dongyang felt like entering a different world. The drunkards who were tall, short, fat and thin all cast strange glances, and Li Dongyang smiled and exclaimed:

"Shopkeeper, I heard that the wine in the alley is unique, but I don't know if it's here?"

"Yo, famous?" The shopkeeper was happy when he heard it, and hurriedly greeted him.

All kinds of wine customers retracted their gazes, some disdainful, some snickered, and some suppressed their voices, saying that the fat sheep is coming, and the shopkeeper is making money today.

Li Dongyang ordered a jar of old wine, a plate of beef, and a plate of peanuts, picked up the big bowl on the table and poured a big bowl, raised his head and drank it, drank a good wine, and was arrogant.

Is it a good wine Li Dongyang knows in his heart, anyway, it can't be compared with the wine in his previous life, and it can't be compared with the wine in Longcheng, how to say it, it's too light, and it tastes stronger than drinking water.

Listening to the praise, the shopkeeper is happier, and even his walking steps are much brisker.

"Cut, turtle." The chubby drinker cursed in a low voice, squeezing his eyebrows at the thin drinker opposite.

The thin man chuckled a few times, and gestured with his right hand on his neck, the fat man smiled even more happily, and his eyes were withdrawn from Li Dongyang, and he began to chat with his drinking friends.

"You know what? The county magistrate who came this time was a ruthless character, and the old Yu family was killed by him. The fat man smiled, a little ostentatious.

"What is this, I heard that the old Yu family colluded with the Dragon Slayer Society and wanted to rebel, but unfortunately he didn't raise the flag yet, so he folded himself in first."

The thin man shook his head, with a look of disdain, and continued: "According to me, the old Yu family is a fool, even if he wants to rebel, he can't follow the Dragon Slayer Society, he should defect to the Phoenix Pavilion." ”

"Shhhh The fat man hurriedly stopped this topic, the old friend is good at everything, but if he can't control his mouth when he drinks, he will die on this mouth sooner or later.

"Hmph, what can't be said, I think how majestic our ancestors were back then, dominating the life and death of all living beings on the mainland, alas, they are all descendants who are not angry, and they have lost that family business."

The more the thin man spoke, the more energetic he became, he rolled up his sleeves and prepared to speak, the fat man was called a regret, his face was green, and he wanted to slap this thing to death.

Li Dongyang was sitting not far from the two, although his ears were not firm, but the conversation between the two was heard clearly, Phoenix Pavilion would not be the bloodline formation left by Tianfeng.

Where did that Phoenix Pavilion take root? If it is in the Longyuan Kingdom, it makes no sense that the emperor doesn't know, but the emperor is the master who even knows how to slay dragons.

"Don't talk about it, drink, can't this wine stop your mouth?" The fat man said angrily, and the other drinkers were amused by one sentence.

Someone soon took over the topic and talked about the past during the Tianfeng Empire, and his face was full of glory when he talked about it, which was completely different from the stiff face he saw during the day.

That kind of pride really comes from the bones, Li Dongyang wiped his cold sweat when he heard it, if there was such a group of ordinary people under his rule, he would have to find a way to take off their heads.

It's not like it's okay to raise political enemies for yourself, just rush at these people, if one day Tianfeng Yu raises the flag and rebels, the first to respond is these guys, because they are proud of Tianfeng.

Shaking his head, Li Dongyang kept the Phoenix Pavilion in his heart, thinking that he would ask his father after returning to Beijing, maybe his father knew a little.

Since he can think of the tavern, the emperor's spies must also think of it, maybe there are people from the emperor sitting here.
