One morning eight days later.

Lu Jingshuo and Lin Yue rode to Qizhou, took out the fish talisman at the city gate, handed it over to the soldiers guarding the city for inspection, and then rode to the Yuefeng Inn.

On the way to Qizhou, Lin Yue heard Lu Jingshuo say to her that before he left, Yun Jin sent a letter to a friend with a carrier pigeon.

Yun Jin told Lu Jingshuo that the man would wait for them at the Yuefeng Inn.

When he came to Qizhou, Lin Yue obviously felt that it was warmer here.

Although Qizhou is located in the north of the imperial city, it is due to the special geographical location of Qizhou. It is blocked by the natural barrier of Mount Qi, and surrounded by the ocean. Moreover, there are several rivers in Qizhou, and the relatively good geographical location makes the land of Qizhou free of scorching heat in summer and severe cold in winter, and it is recognized as a spring city by the people of Jingxi country.

Qizhou is adjacent to Que Zhou, located in some places in the northernmost part of Qizhou, and is very close to the two neighboring countries of Guna and Beixuan.

Due to the special geographical location of Qizhou, coupled with the relationship between Jingxi Kingdom and the Northern Crossbow Kingdom, it has always been very tense.

Therefore, there are very few merchant ships on this side of Qizhou Port, and the merchant ships docked here are subject to very strict inspections.

Under normal circumstances, these merchant ships could not anchor in the port of Qizhou for too long.

No matter which merchant ship came to Qizhou, it was loaded with goods by some Jing soldiers and then helped transport them to Qizhou.

As soon as the merchant ship came to Qizhou, the envoys of Qizhou Assassin Shi and Jiedu led some soldiers to inspect and receive the goods. Then they handed over the specialties of the land of Qizhou that they had prepared to those soldiers on the merchant ships. As soon as the person in charge of both of them signed and pressed the handprint, the soldiers of the Jing army were responsible for transporting the goods to the imperial city and Yanzhou.

All merchant ships arriving at the port of Qizhou are not allowed to dock in Qizhou for too long. Under normal circumstances, at most, it is to dock at Qizhou Port for one day, and then sail out of Qizhou Port.

As soon as some merchant ships sailed over, when the people here had checked the goods and loaded the goods, those people had to leave the port of Qizhou with the merchant ships.

Anyone who dares to disobey the rules may be severely punished, ranging from being arrested and imprisoned for more than ten years to losing their lives as a result.

Most of the people who checked the goods in Qizhou were the spies trained by Ling Mohan.

Those spies sometimes went to check the goods, and sometimes they would pretend to be ordinary aristocratic sons and brothers, and go to several big wine shops or tea shops in Qizhou to sit for a while.

Some are there to find out, and some are there to wait for the people.

Lin Yue rode a horse beside Lu Jingshuo, and saw that there were many pedestrians on the streets of Qizhou. But she only saw that the women in Qizhou were wearing very beautiful fences, and there were several women's fences with thin amethyst bead curtains.

There are also women who come to hang out on the streets and don't wear fences at all.

Lin Yue saw a few women who didn't wear a fence, and whispered to Lu Jingshuo, who was riding a horse beside her, "Lang Jun, you see, the women here are not very conservative." ”

Lu Jingshuo pretended not to hear it, and didn't even look at the women.

Lin Yue saw Lu Jingshuo like this, and immediately saw his thoughts. This man is still the same as he used to be, no matter where he goes, he has no interest in strangers.

She had to change the subject.

"Lang Jun, will the seventh brother be there soon? We didn't take the same road when we rode through Qishan, but we're both here, so they should be there soon, right? ”

Lu Jingshuo said lightly:

"Maybe in another hour or two, we'll see them."

It's just that as soon as the seventh brother comes to Qizhou, he will go back to the Shifu with Brother Kelian. He and Ah Yue had to go to the Yuefeng Inn first, to meet a friend of his, and tell the other party something important. There is a book shortage

Lu Jingshuo and Lin Yue chatted while walking, and after a while, they came to an inn close to the port, outside the gate of Yuefeng Inn.

The door of the hall of Yuefeng Inn was open, and Lin Yue looked in through the open door, only to see a man in a black costume standing in front of the counter.

Two young men in brocade robes stood opposite the man who was going to make a plate, as if waiting for the man to return the deposit to them.

The man who was going to make the dish quickly calculated the cost, took out two bags of silver, and handed them to the two young men.

The two young men each handed over a note, and then they both reached out to catch the silver tael.

At this moment, a shopkeeper dressed in black came out, greeted Lin Yue and Lu Jingshuo, and greeted, "Two guest officers, please come with me." ”

After saying that, the shopkeeper stretched out his hand to take the reins in Lu Jingshuo and Lin Yue's respective hands, and said softly to Lu Jingshuo: "Sixth prince Jing, the sixth prince is already waiting for you in the hall, specially asked me to come over and take away the horse and tell you." ”

Lu Jingshuo gave the shopkeeper five taels of silver, but the shopkeeper didn't accept it, saying:

"Why does Childe have to see the outside like this? You are the brother of the sixth son, I am the friend of the sixth son, and we are all our own people. You brought your lady here, and I should have entertained you well. But how inappropriate is it for you to give me money? ”

After listening to the words of the shopkeeper, Lu Jingshuo didn't insist on giving the silver, smiled and thanked him, and took Lin Yue into the hall of the Yuefeng Inn.

There were a number of guests seated in the hall, all men in armor. These people are all some spies cultivated by Ling Mohan, and on weekdays, no matter who comes to Yuefeng Inn, they will be seen by them.

Lin Yue stood beside Lu Jingshuo, waiting for Ah Jing's friend to come and meet them.

After a while, a young man dressed in white with a handsome face walked from the staircase and came straight to Lu Jingshuo and Lin Yue. He smiled and saluted, and said:

"Sixth brother, the younger brother has just called the second little brother of the shop and put the food in the private room upstairs for us. Thinking that this was the first time my sixth sister-in-law came to our land of Qizhou, I added some Qizhou-style pastries to her. ”

"Thank you Brother Han for being so thoughtful. In fact, your sister-in-law, like me, is not a picky eater. After Lu Jingshuo said this, he looked around cautiously, and asked Brother Han in a very soft voice:

"Why are they wearing armor when they come to the port to do business?"

Aren't the people who are spies usually wearing civilian clothes?

Brother Han said softly: "Sixth brother doesn't know, they came out with my younger brother." A few days ago, my younger brother received a letter from my uncle and Grandpa Yun. The younger brother brought them out because he wanted them to wait for the sixth brother here, so that he could follow the sixth brother to get rid of the ...... of the thieves."

Lu Jingshuo heard this and nodded knowingly.

Brother Han is young, and he can do things, but he can still think about him so thoughtfully, which is very rare.

Lu Jingshuo attached himself to Lin Yue's ear, and said in a very soft voice: "Come with me to the private room upstairs for dinner." Wait a little longer, and I'll tell you about Brother Han. ”

Lin Yue smiled obediently and said, "Okay." ”

She and Lu Jingshuo followed behind Brother Han and walked towards the staircase.

The armored spies sitting in the hall were only drinking and eating, and they didn't look at Lu Jingshuo and Lin Yue, and they didn't talk much.

In this way, although there were many people sitting in the elegant hall, it was still relatively quiet.

Lin Yue and Lu Jingshuo followed Brother Han upstairs to a private room upstairs.

She saw that Brother Han quickly closed the door of the private room, took out a small bottle of potion from his purse, wiped it on his face, and then quickly tore off the disfigured skin.
