Li Hanning glanced at Xiao Ce, Xiao Ce must have her own things to do when she returns to Luoyang this time, and she doesn't want to make trouble for him because of this, she can investigate this matter by herself.

But seeing that it is getting late, it is not too late to talk about it tomorrow.

Li Hanning just nodded, and the two of them took advantage of the people coming and going on the street, and they were about to walk back to their homes when there were still many people, but when they passed by the bridge, Li Hanning suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure from the crowd, and at first thought it was wrong, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was wrong.

There will never be two people in this world who are so similar, and in addition to their appearance, their height and body shape are exactly the same as the clothes they usually wear.

But right now, there are people coming and going on this bridge, and it is already crowded here, Li Hanning couldn't get off the bridge for a while in the crowd, and watched the person on the river bank walk away.

When he finally got off the bridge, Li Hanning ran towards the place where the figure disappeared just now, Xiao Ce on the side looked at her distracted, and watched her run towards a place, but he didn't have time to call her, so he had to chase after her.

Li Hanning chased the familiar figure to the side of the street.

"Chuzhou!"

The man stopped with his back to her, Li Hanning saw him turn around slowly, with a pair of clean eyes, looking at her who suddenly appeared with some suddenness, it was indeed Chuzhou, he was indeed alive! Stand alive in front of yourself now.

Chu Zhou was inevitably a little surprised after seeing the person who came clearly, that face was obviously the Li Han he knew, but at the moment the two people were completely different, Chu Zhou asked tentatively in a tone of not very sure:

"Are you Li Han?"

Chu Zhou heard a familiar voice calling him, but the person standing in front of him at the moment was a little unbelievable, when he was on the boat, the Li Han he knew was a man, but now she is dressed in women's clothes.

Li Hanning nodded and said indeedly: "It's me." ”

Li Hanning knew that his appearance was very different from when he was on the boat, so naturally he didn't blame Chu Zhou for not being sure that she was Li Han.

Li Hanning breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he was fine, just alive.

"Thank you for giving me the token at that time, I heard the news from the docks and thought you were- but you were still alive."

Xiao Ce followed all the way here, but he was late, walked to Li Hanning's side, stood there and looked at Chuzhou in front of him quietly, and then said:

"Is he the friend you met on the ship?"

Li Hanning responded: "I thought he was dead, right Chu Zhou." ”

Li Hanning seemed to remember something important, and then looked at Chu Zhou, who was standing not far away, and said, "How did you escape in the afternoon?" ”

Chu Zhou's eyes were stunned when he heard this question, as if he recalled something that made him painful, and frowned:

"I don't know why those officers and soldiers couldn't help but say after they got on the boat, they began to kill people everywhere, all the people were hiding, at that time the boat was sitting in a mess, I heard crying and screaming all around, we couldn't beat those officers and soldiers, a few jumped into the water, but the river bank was also guarding there officers and soldiers, we could only dive, but many people held their breath for too long, and they sank to the bottom of the river if they couldn't hold on, I was lucky, but I was also in a coma for a while, and when I woke up, I was on the river bank in the distance, where no one guarded, And I met good people who saved me. ”

Li Hanning was just about to speak, but Xiao Ce took the first step and asked, "Then do you know which officers and soldiers want to do it?" ”

Chu Zhou thought about the scene he saw on the boat in the afternoon, and still shook his head:

"In the past, when we went out and returned to Luoyang, those officers and soldiers just got on the boat and checked if there were any smugglers, but this time it was different, they didn't check or stop explaining to the people on the boat, and killed all the people as smugglers, maybe it was the boat boss who offended the people in the government, I don't know."

Li Hanning also understood the meaning, this matter sounded very involved, she knew that Chu Zhou would not lie, but the officers and soldiers of Luoyang also talked about this matter, and the mastermind behind it was definitely not so simple.

Li Hanning said: "No matter what, it's good that you're still alive, where are you going now?" ”

If Chu Zhou didn't have a place to live, the Ming Wangfu could give him a place to live now.

"The family who picked me up is very good, they live in Luoyang City, I promised them to help their family work, take care of the shop usually, and they will provide me with a place to live."

Chuzhou now has a place to live temporarily, and he also knows that Li Han is a girl's family, and he wants to pretend to be a man-like boatman to go on the boat as a boatman, probably for some silver, and it is naturally not easy to live, even if he doesn't have that ship, he can't go to the steward on that ship, he also has hands and feet to work and can't drag others down.

Li Hanning said again at the moment: "Okay, you tell me where you live, and when that matter is clear, I'll go to you." ”

Chu Zhou looked at her and said, "It's the penultimate family on West Street in Luoyang City." ”

Seeing that it was not too early, he thought about it for a while, and thought that the family should be closed, so he said to Li Hanning in front of him with some embarrassment:

"I'm sorry Li Han, I have to go, it's not too early now, I'm a sojourner after all, I should go back in someone else's house, you girl should go back early if you're so late, if you have time another day, you can come to me, or I'll go find you."

Li Hanning was stunned, and he also knew Chu Zhou's embarrassment, so he quickly looked at him and responded, "Okay, you go back first." ”

Li Hanning watched her walk away.

saw Xiao Ce looking at Chu Zhou's back as he left, and subconsciously frowned.

Li Hanning realized that because he suddenly knew that Chuzhou was not dead, he seemed to be talking to Chuzhou in an accident just now, and seemed to have snubbed His Royal Highness King Ming beside him, but he shouldn't care about these little things.

Xiao Ce glanced at Li Hanning: "This friend of yours used to be in charge of that ship, right?" I remember hearing you say that he had amnesia, right? ”

Li Hanning didn't know why, but replied seriously: "Yes, I also heard from other shipwrights, it seems that the salt transport made them take him in and let him work as an errand on that ship." ”

Xiao Ce seemed to remember something, and he wanted to say something, but before he confirmed this matter, he thought that it was better not to tell Li Hanning, so he didn't say what he was thinking about at this moment.

On the way back, Li Hanning touched the purse on his waist, and remembered that he forgot to return this thing to Chu Zhou, this thing must be very important to him, if she saw him in a few days, she would definitely remember it.

Here Li Hanning just fell asleep after returning home, she lived in the room next to Xiao Ce tonight, Xiao Ce saw through the mouth that the candles were extinguished in her room, and only then did she call down the secret guard who had been staying on the roof.

The sound of the guard landing lightly caused the candle on the table to shake in the wind:

"His Royal Highness King Ming summoned me, I don't know what to order?"

Xiao Ce handed him the note he had just written: "This is his address, you help me check someone, he lives in this place, he is a guest of this house, his name, his identity, who he has been in contact with in the past, but everything you can find out, everything will be checked for me in every detail." ”

It was the guard who took the note in Xiao Ce's hand and just glanced at it, and quickly bowed his head and responded:

"Your Highness, rest assured."

What their secret guards are best at is investigating other people's details, not to mention that the address of the note given by His Royal Highness King Ming is still in Luoyang City.

The window in front of Xiao Ce happened to be open, and he looked up at the moonlight tonight, the ancients had a saying that was true, the moon is the brightest in his hometown, and the moon seen in Luoyang City is indeed better than other places, and now that he has returned to Luoyang, he will not be forced to leave his hometown again.

The person he was going to investigate, Li Hanning seemed to value him very much, Xiao Ce really rarely saw Li Hanning treat anyone as a friend before, except for the generals who had been following them before, there was almost no one else, but they had only known each other for a few days, and Li Hanning mentioned him as if he were a friend.

I don't know if he did something wrong by letting Li Hanning go to investigate the smuggling of the official ship, but I hope that the person named Chuzhou has nothing to do with this matter at all.

Xiao Ce didn't want Li Hanning to be embarrassed because of someone else.

*

When Li Hanning woke up the next day, she went to find Xiao Ce not long after, she had been getting up early, but today Xiao Ce woke up earlier than her, and was approving things early in the morning, he had just returned to Luoyang, and there were many things waiting for him to deal with, but when he saw Li Hanning walking into the room, Xiao Ce still put down the brush in his hand for the first time and looked over.

"Your Highness."

Li Hanning got straight to the point and said: "I want to go to the dock to investigate the case, but the forces behind this case are intertwined, and I may need His Highness's token." ”

In fact, before she opened her mouth today, Xiao Ce already knew what she meant by coming to him.

This matter can also be handed over to her to investigate, but Xiao Ce's original most suitable person in his heart is indeed not Li Hanning.

However, Li Hanning rarely asked him, since she opened her mouth on this matter, he naturally would not refuse, so he immediately untied the golden token pinned to his waist and handed it over, seeing that she took it, he seemed to be a little uneasy and instructed:

"This is not Luoyang after all, we just came back, if you encounter trouble that you can't solve, don't be reckless, just come to me."

Xiao Ce knew that those troubles that might not be solved as Li Hanning could always be solved as the king of Ming.

Li Hanning glanced at the official documents that had been piling up on Xiao Ce's desk since last night, and knew that he also had a lot of his own things to do, so she naturally wouldn't trouble him too much:

"Your Highness, rest assured."
