It is said that Yu Zhigao sent a fleet of 3,000 people yesterday to attack Nansha Island, but he returned in vain, and was sunk by the island's artillery and more than a dozen warships.

Yu Ren was a little relieved, it seemed that his uncle Yu Zhigao wanted to steal the credit. Because Yu Ren's father did not allow his family to interact with his cousin, Yu Ren didn't know what kind of person Yu Zhigao, Yu Dayou's own son after this famous general, was.

But he knew very well in his heart that as long as Nansha could not be attacked for a day, Xiong Wencan would not do anything to himself for a day.

However, how to solve the current situation is a difficult problem.

At dinner, Yu Ren sat alone in the room in a daze. He's missing Li Ying. Since the last time they said goodbye in Hangzhou, the two have not seen each other. It's been more than half a year now. Now that Li Ying has been taken back to Hirado by her father, the two don't know when they will be able to meet.

Looking at the sunset and bare branches outside the window, Yu Ren suddenly remembered that it was almost the New Year. Before I knew it, I had been here for almost a year. During the year, many things happened and many dangers were encountered.

At this hurdle, you may not be able to get through. If you really can't break through, you will end this life trip here. Will I go to another world after I die and start a new life? Yu Ren didn't know. But he was obviously a little reluctant to leave this world. After all, there are many friends here who have shared weal and woe, life and death with them, and there are many relatives who really care about and love them.

Of course, the most important thing is that there is a little woman here who cares about him, and her sorrows, joys, smiles and smiles make him dream.

Yu Ren was immersed in the memories of his encounter with Li Ying in Fujian, when Chunmei suddenly walked in with a meal.

Seeing Yu Ren standing by the window in a daze, Chunmei gently put the food on the table, and then gently closed the door. This action is a little abnormal, in the past, every time Chunmei finished delivering food, if it was okay, she would quit. But this time she stayed and closed the door.

However, at this time, Yu Ren did not notice this subtle change in Chunmei at all.

"Young Master Cousin!"

Yu Ren did not reflect.

Chunmei gently pushed Yu Ren's shoulder with her hand again. "Young Master Cousin, someone sent you a secret letter." Chunmei leaned into Yu Ren's ear and whispered.

This time, Yu Ren woke up, completely awakened.

He turned his head suddenly, stared at Chunmei, and asked in a low voice, "What?" What did you say? ”

Chunmei quietly took out an unopened letter from her sleeve, the envelope was blank and nothing was written.

Yu Ren hurriedly took the letter and opened it to look at it carefully. I saw that there was only one sentence written in the letter: If you want to solve the current dilemma, tonight's third watch, Lion Rock Wangsong Pavilion.

"Where did this letter come from?" Yu Ren asked softly.

"Uncle Qiao, who was in charge of going out to buy groceries, quietly brought it to me. He said that this letter was quietly put into his vegetable market when he went out to buy vegetables today. He found it while sorting vegetables in the kitchen. ”

Yu Ren didn't ask again. Obviously, the person who sent the letter didn't want them to know who they were.

But who sent this letter to him? Is it a trap deliberately designed by the government for himself, or is there really some high-ranking person who wants to help him get out of trouble!

Yu Ren waved his hand to Chunmei. "Go down first! This matter must never be told to anyone else. In addition, I also have to tell Uncle Qiao not to talk about this matter. Otherwise, our family will be in danger of their lives. ”

After Chunmei left, Yu Ren immediately called Cao An and Xu Qian, and the three of them came to the secret room. Yu Ren took out the secret letter.

"What does this mean? Could it be that Lord Bear is deliberately tempting us? Cao An's first thought was this possibility.

Yu Ren shook his head. "Probably not. Because there is nothing incriminating in the letter. Even if it is a bureau set up by the imperial court, they cannot convict us on this basis. So, I don't think it's a trap. ”

"Could it be that this Xiong Wencan wants to lure you out, and then find someone to assassinate you?" Xu Qian said.

Yu Ren shook his head. "It's also unlikely. Although Governor Bear already suspects that we have anything to do with your family, he does not know who I really am. After all, I still have many friends in the Donglin Party, and if it is not necessary, there is no need for him to be willing to risk being attacked by the Donglin Party's officials to assassinate me. ”

"So what's going on here? Could this really be a letter from some friend of yours, young master? But if this is really the case, why doesn't he leave some money, but let the young master guess like this? I saw that the handwriting on the letter was delicate and silky, and it looked a little like a woman's handwriting. Could it be that the young lady of whose family wrote it? Cao An took the letter and looked at it carefully.

Yu Ren didn't speak, and he couldn't be sure. But when Cao An reminded him like this, he also felt that the handwriting on the letter was a little familiar. I just can't remember who it is for a while.

"Forget it, since you can't guess, then don't guess at all. I'll meet this mysterious man in the evening. Cao An, didn't you say that you had already bought off that Yan Baihu? I'm going out tonight, I shouldn't have a problem, right? ”

"Don't worry. Don't say that it's just you, young master, even if you go out ten or eight, it's not a problem at all. ”

"Well, I'll leave this matter to you. I'll go back to my room and get ready. Yu Ren was about to leave, Xu Qian suddenly said, "I'm going too." ”

Yu Ren was a little surprised. "You're coming with me? Don't want it! In the middle of the night, you are a girl's house, go out with a big man like me, not to mention that lonely men and widows will inevitably be suspected of melons and plums, and there is still a certain risk in this trip.

If it's a trap, I'll take you with me, and it's hard to escape! ”

Xu Qian didn't follow. "You said there would be no danger, and now you're using it to trick me. No, you must take me with you. Otherwise, I won't let you go. ”

Seeing that Xu Qian played with a child's temper and pouted, Yu Ren had no choice. "Oh well! However, I can take you with me. Let's get it clear. Out of this courtyard wall, you'll have to listen to me for everything. Otherwise, I'd rather not go than take you there. ”

Xu Qian hurriedly nodded, "This is natural." ”

That night, Cao An successfully sent Yu Ren and Xu Qian out. In this business, Yan Baihu got another five hundred taels of silver. choked this greedy guy with joy, and actually took the initiative to ask Cao An again and again, if anyone else was going out.

Yu Ren took Xu Qian with his head down and tried his best to walk through those small alleys without lights. Fortunately, because they came out early, there were still a lot of pedestrians on the street, and it was not inconspicuous.

Although Xiong Wencan had sent troops to surround the Shen family, he did not impose a curfew on Songjiang City, and the prosperity and liveliness of Songjiang City were not affected at all. This city, which was gradually developed in the middle and late Ming Dynasty and has a strong commercial atmosphere, really reached the ** of her day after sunset.

Although this Lord Xiong attaches great importance to this crackdown on bandits, he doesn't seem to want to disturb the lives of the people because of this. It is probably because this Xiong is deeply influenced by Confucian culture, and this people-oriented thinking has deeply influenced him.

Lion Rock is to the west of Matsue Castle, and this area is relatively barren. Lion Rock: He's been here before. The mountain is not very high, and it is only half an hour to climb from the bottom of the mountain to the top. Nawang Pine Pavilion is on the top of Lion Rock, condescending, and you can overlook the entire Songjiang Castle.

The two climbed up the mountain, and Yu Ren first checked around Wangsong Pavilion and saw that there was nothing abnormal, so he was relieved. Seeing that it was still early, he withdrew again. Yu Ren took Xu Qian to find a small bush not far from the pavilion, and the two hid in it in case of accidents.

Yu Ren brought a few piles of pine hair from the side and spread them on the ground. Next to this is a large pine forest, and there are pine hairs. Yu Ren spread a thick layer of pine hair on the ground, and then lay down. Look at the sky, it is the moon in the middle of the sky, it is still early for the third watch, Yu Ren said to Xu Qian.

"You're watching from here! Someone came and called me. I'll sleep for a while. When the green pine moon is bright, being able to sleep well is also a great enjoyment of life. ”
