Chapter 262: Finding Anhou
The little marquis actually owes 200 taels of room fees to this land of flowers and willows, and let it be recorded in the account of the Jin Palace?
Jia Chu felt that he had not slept for many days, and when he got off the horse, he fell too violently, and his dizziness and tinnitus were wrong.
As the most powerful secret guard beside King Jin, he naturally knew how many silver tickets Zhou An had on him before he came to Jinling.
Although those were for the purpose of organizing the Juxian Conference, they were also paid tribute to the local gentry...... It's broken.
Jia Chu thought that the Ye family in Jinling had already collapsed, causing the entire Jiangnan Province to defect to the prince's gentry being investigated, in order to prevent the burning of the body and the shrinking of the royal family's income, he looked at the turtle slave in front of him who was greedy for life and afraid of death, and believed it.
"Hero, aren't you looking for Anhou? As long as you give the silver, the custodian bustard can tell you where Anhou is, and the news of the three sects and nine streams in Jinling City will not be our Xiaoxiang Pavilion......"
"Lao Li, let you guard the door, you are here to block the distinguished guests from entering the door, angering the distinguished guests, can you afford it?"
A female voice interrupted the turtle slave's words.
The old bustard Qiu Niang deliberately twisted her waist, and while walking towards Jia Chu in a charming manner, she secretly looked at the other party.
She heard the identity of this person inside the door, and thought that Lao Li would be able to deal with it, but she didn't expect Lao Li to take the initiative to talk about the well-informed Xiaoxiang Pavilion in order to get back the two hundred taels of silver.
Although since ancient times, Qinglou has been a mixed place, and many fine works often like to come here to have fun and find out the news at the same time, but their own people say so, which is somewhat conspicuous.
Just when Qiu Niang's gaze stayed on Jia Chu's body and just reached two breaths.
Cha.
A dagger made a buzzing sound, flashed out of Jiachu's cuffs, and landed on Qiu Niang's neck.
Wu Luan, who was leaning on the railing on the third floor and looking out, saw this scene, clenched the railing, and breathed heavily.
What's going on?
Is this a bully in the Jin Palace, or has he seen through Qiu Niang's identity?
It should be the former, otherwise according to the personality of King Jin, he would have already sent troops to encircle and suppress Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
"Say, where is Anhou?"
Jia Chuguang judged from the cotton forging clothes worn by Qiu Niang and the walking posture that this person was the old bustard of the Qinglou.
Fang Cai Gui Nu also said that if you give money, you can know Anhou's whereabouts, and he has no money to buy news, so he can only ask this old bustard to tell himself.
Qiu Niang's nervous heartbeat was like a beat, but she still had a flattering smile on her face, and she wrestled with Jia Chu, she smiled coquettishly: "This guest officer, Anhou has never been here since he left Xiaoxiang Pavilion, you ask me...... Hiss! ”
Before she finished her words, her neck was cold, and she looked down.
A sharp dagger cut a line of blood at the collarbone.
Raising her head, the killing intent in the eyes of the Jin Wangfu guard in front of her made her shudder.
"Say."
Jia Chu coldly spat out a word, and the tip of the dagger was aimed at the green tendons that burst out of Qiu Niang's neck.
Qiu Niang ushered in and sent so many people, where can I not see that the guard in front of me is murderous.
She didn't care about hiding it, and said in a low voice: "After Anhou left the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, you saw him in the north of the city. ”
Cheng?
"Will the little marquis go to the north of the city?"
Under the half of Jiachu's face, there was a suspicious look.
The pattern of Jinling and the urban area of the capital is similar, both are rich in the east and expensive in the west, poor in the south and cheap in the north.
The north of the city is inhabited by untouchables and homeless people, and it is chaotic, why did the little marquis go there?
Qiu Niang was so dangerous, this bully Jia Chu took a mouthful of saliva.
Whether Zhou An will go to the north of the city, how does she know?
She only knew that someone under her staff had seen Zhou An go to the north of the city, and it seemed that he had also gone to the Third Watch Pavilion.
But recently, the Third Watch Pavilion was seized by Su Rui with heavy armor soldiers, and she didn't dare to cause this trouble, so she could only smile and say: "Maybe Anhou is looking for someone to do things?" ”
"Do you know who the little marquis is here, and who do you usually have contact with?"
Jia Chu did not pin his hopes of finding Zhou An on an old bustard.
If an old bustard can keep an eye on Zhou An's whereabouts every day, it can only mean that this old bustard has other plans, and the dagger in his hand can't help but cut the neck of this old bustard, and then torture the turtle slave, or the mixed-race girl from the Western Regions who has been staring at him on the top of his head.
"This ......"
Qiu Niang hesitated for a moment, and felt the dagger press down hard, and the sharp sting seemed to be about to penetrate the flesh and blood veins, and she no longer hid it.
"An Hou has the closest relationship with the former temporary Governor Huang and the current envoy Huang."
Since the Ninth Princess's recent focus has been on Ning Shixian and the Ning family, plus Zhou An's whereabouts are uncertain when he leaves the Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
Xiaoxiang Pavilion doesn't collect much information about Zhou An.
The deepest impression is that the Juxian Conference was held in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion that day, in addition to the close relationship with the Ye family, according to the situation of the day, it can only be related to the envoy Huang.
"The current envoy is Lord Huang."
Jia Chu secretly wrote down the name, took out a silver ticket from his arms, and threw it into Qiu Niang's arms along with the waist card.
"Open a room, feed the horses with high-quality forage, and send someone to invite this Lord Huang."
To be able to become the first person in the secret guard, Jia Chu not only has extraordinary kung fu, but also has a good mind.
In his opinion, even if the little marquis has no money, no matter how down, there should be someone to fund it, if not, either the power of the Jin Wangfu in Jinling will be uprooted, or the little marquis will go to the north of the city to have other plans.
Whatever the reason, he needed a reliable local to explain the situation.
At the same time, he and the horses have long been unable to bear the journey, and they must rest and recuperate, and then go to see the little marquis, so that the little marquis who has always liked to take his own ideas can be restrained, and he will be brought back to the capital to return to the prince.
"Guest officer, don't worry......"
Qiu Niang squeezed out a smiling face when she touched the waist card made of gold in the Jin Palace, but when she saw that the silver ticket was only ten taels, the smile on her face became extremely stiff.
Ten taels?
Are the descendants of the Jin Palace's Mansion so poor?
When Jia first saw Qiu Niang's dissatisfied, a sharp look swept over.
"I was just looking for a place to settle down and sent you some feed, but I didn't say that I wanted to pay back Anhou."
“……”
Poor to death, you Jin Wangfu has it!
Qiu Niang complained in her heart, but her body honestly took a step back and bowed to Jia Chufu.
"Please rest assured, don't look at the ten taels of silver tickets, just look at the waist card of the Jin Palace, we, the small people of Shengdou, will definitely do a good job of what you have explained...... Hiss. ”
Qiu Niang gasped again.
It's just that this time it's not because it hurts, it's because of surprise.
I saw that after her politeness and praise, Jia Chu reached out and pulled the ten taels of silver tickets back from her hand.
"In that case, let's continue to record today's consumption in the accounts of the Jin Palace."
When Jia Chu came, King Jin didn't even pay for the journey, and the ten taels were still paid by Jia Chu out of his own pocket, so he was naturally reluctant.
You Jin Wangfu is really picky!
Qiu Niang dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, so she could only tell the turtle slave to find an errand runner and report to Huang Zhicha.
When many ordinary people have grievances, they go to the Jinling Mansion to make a little money to check the money, and they will take advantage of which street the inspector goes to block the street and make a big deal about it.
Thinking that just the silver to the government office would start with five taels, enough for her to eat two bowls of ice drinks, Qiu Niang felt a pain in her flesh.
Look at the tall brown horse that collapsed on the ground, it was like a sweaty horse bred by a horse, hungry for feed and could eat more than ten catties a meal, and rolled his eyes in anger.
"Qiu Niang."
It wasn't until the voice of the Nine Princesses came from above her head that Qiu Niang looked up and saw the Nine Princesses nodding with a straight face, motioning her to do so, so she angrily instructed the other turtle slaves to lead the horses to the backyard.
Third floor.
Wuluan held his cheeks in his hand, turned around and leaned against the railing with his back, looking in the direction of Zhangjiazhuang in the north of the city, looking a little nervous.
Qiu Niang didn't know where Zhou An was, but because she had subordinates who were mixed up in the Sanwatch Pavilion as killers, she heard some rumors.
