Zhou Nan would never have thought that the princess of Shu and his bedroom at this moment were only the distance between the front and back yards, let alone that if he and Gao Yuan followed Zuo Xiaosi and them to the restaurant to deliver steamed wine during the day, they would have met that Hu Dugu at the door of the store, and maybe they were accepting Hu Dugu's hospitality at this moment.

It's just that there won't be any follow-up to Hu Dugu later

There was nothing to say all night, and on the second day, Zhou Nan and Zuo Xiaosi went all the way, and Gao Yuan and Gao Shouzhong went all the way to the street to inquire about the situation of the princess and that Hu Dugu, and they all went out.

Inquire about the princess's mansion, this is a good question, along Danzhou Street to the east, to the Sheng'en Temple and then to the south, to the west gate of Sheng'an Temple, there is a huge mansion in the west of the road, this is the princess of Shu Mansion. Along the street in front of the gate of the mansion, all the way to the west is the Xuanhe Gate of the Imperial City.

The mansion of the princess of Shu is still there, but no one knows the whereabouts of the princess. Zhou Nan and the others could only ask from the side, only to know that although this mansion belonged to the princess of Shu, it was only when the princess of Shu rarely came to live here, and most of them lived in the imperial city to accompany their mother. After the old emperor traveled west, no one knew the news of the princess anymore. It's just that this mansion is still the same as usual, sprinkled and cleaned every day, the gate is closed on weekdays, and only the people in the mansion enter and exit through the side door to buy and do business.

Zhou Nan was not surprised by these situations, after all, the princess was walking west with Emperor Tianzuo's father. It is impossible to suddenly appear in this Yanjing City.

Let go of the princess of Shu Kingdom, it is the clue of Hu Dugu. This Hu Dugu also said that if he arrived in Yanjing, someone would naturally come to invite him and treat him well. Now that the war is in chaos, and even the master can't be found, naturally no one will come to invite him to drink and eat.

Zuo Xiaosi often came to Yanjing City, found a few storefronts, asked three questions and two questions, and found out that Hu Dugu was on duty in the princess's mansion on weekdays, and returned to his own house not far south of the mansion at night to rest. A few people discussed, Zhou Nan and Zuo Xiaosi went to the vicinity of Hu Dugu's house to star, Gao Yuan took people to watch outside the gate of the princess's mansion, and went back to the restaurant to meet at night.

Zhou Nan and Zuo Xiaosi found a tea shop next to Hu Dugu's house, asked for a pot of tea, cold saucer and dried fruits, and drank tea while talking idly and resting leisurely.

But the two of them stared from noon to evening, from the tea shop to the restaurant, until the night was very dark, and they didn't see Hu Dugu. The two had to go back to the restaurant and wait until tomorrow to continue to watch.

Gao Yuan and the three people were the same, they all waited for a long time, and the five of them were a little tired, so they washed up hastily and went back to the house to sleep.

In a daze, I don't know what time it is, Zhou Nan, who was a little tired, was suddenly awakened by the sound of a heavy object falling outside the window. It turned out that Zhou Nan and his sleeping house were on the edge of the front yard, and there was a high wall on the side of the house, probably the slaves in the restaurant rarely came to this room, so Zhou Nan and they had to work hard to clean it when they moved in.

Zhou Nan was wondering, and suddenly there was another "poof", which made Zhou Nan sleepy. Zhou Nan felt strange, in the middle of the night, could someone throw something into the yard? He quietly got out of bed, through the gap in the window, and then in the faint starlight, he saw two black shadows walking out from under the base of the wall, and did not look around, as if he was very familiar with the situation in this courtyard, and walked straight to the backyard. Zhou Nan hurriedly got dressed, he heard Zuo Xiaosi say that there were only the hostess and a few slaves in this restaurant, and two people jumped over the wall in the middle of the night, most of them were thieves who came in and did some things to make money and kill people.

Since they promised to buy wine in this restaurant, although it is a business relationship, they can allow them to stay here, and they can't let it go alone.

At this time, Gao Yuan heard the sound outside and got up, the two didn't have time to say more, woke up Zuo Xiaosi, Gao Shouzhong and the other three, took out two short knives from under the bed, and quietly came out of the house, dotted with these two black shadows in the distance, and walked to the backyard without making a sound.

After passing through the hall, a pair of lanterns hung under the corridor of the backyard, which were not extinguished. Zhou Nan and the others hid in the dark shadows, only to see that the two figures in front of them were dressed in black, holding short-bladed sharp knives in their hands, without any scruples, they stepped on the stairs and went upstairs to the owner of the restaurant in the backyard.

There are lights in the courtyard, and the thief is standing on a high building, if Zhou Nan follows at this time, he will show his traces, but the thief will find out. So he stayed where he was, watching the two thieves move.

The two thieves seemed to be familiar with the door, after going up to the second floor, they came to the door in the middle of the upper floor, and opened the door gently with a slight movement, and the two pushed the door in, and then a ball of light came out of the room, followed by an "ah" sound, the woman in the house seemed to be awakened, only to listen to a man on the ground after scolding, everything fell silent again.

Zhou Nan quietly asked Zuo Xiaosi and Gao Shouzhong brothers to stay where they were, to prevent any more thieves from coming in, and they were caught off guard by being argued about. He and Gao Yuan stepped into the courtyard and went up to the second floor. As soon as I went up the stairs and turned right, I heard a man's voice shouting, "Hand over the princess's seal letter to me, and I can save your life." ”

Hearing the words "Princess Seal Letter", Zhou Nan was shocked, and hurriedly grabbed Gao Yuan, and did not rush in directly, but crouched under the window with Gao Yuan, stealing the sound. Unexpectedly, Hu Dugu, who had been staring at him for a day, actually found himself here at night to persecute the princess seal letter - the princess seal letter? Could it be that the owner of this restaurant has something to do with the princess?

Then I heard another man's voice in the room say: "The little ones are also acting on orders, and at this time the princess is a royal noble, if you don't take it out quickly, don't blame the little ones for being ignorant, and go in and bump into the princess." ”

A young girl in the room said angrily: "There is no princess here, you have found the wrong person." My family came over, arrested you and waited, and sent the official tomorrow, don't regret it then! ”

The man who spoke just now laughed and said unhurriedly: "Since my brothers have found it, how can it be wrong?" If it's not a princess, then don't blame my two brothers for going in and offending ......"

The tone was full of obscenity, and the girl hurriedly said, "You dare! You two...... Yes! Thief! ”

I heard the girl's voice, and then I heard a man say, "If my brothers dare to come, they will have the courage of heaven!" Why don't you hand over the seal letter soon?! ”

"Bold!" An angry rebuke came from inside the room, apparently another woman's voice.

Zhou Nan couldn't help but peek in through the screen window, only to see a girl wearing a moon-white robe with long hair casually tied behind her head walking out of a room inside. Zhou Nan watched carefully, and it was the princess of Shu who he met in the mountains last year.
