More than half a month later, the boundary of Yucheng.

In a bedroom in Yucheng, Zhou Chen was practicing. Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and Yu Qiu Shuang, who was dressed elegantly and with a serious face, walked in.

"Brother Zhou, the Li Lianhua you asked me to pay attention to has already arrived at the boundary of Yucheng. Do you need me to invite him here?"

Zhou Chen opened his eyes and looked at Yu Qiu Shuang, who had a completely different temperament from a month ago and was full of momentum, and smiled.

"No, he will do it by himself. You don't need to pay too much attention to him."

Yu Qiushuang nodded, then frowned and said: "Zongzheng Mingzhu's father has sent a letter, and the content is to ask about Zongzheng Mingzhu's situation in Yucheng. I have forced Zongzheng Mingzhu to reply to the letter. Take a look at these two letters, are there any

Something is wrong."

Zhou Chen took the two letters from Yu Qiu Shuang's hand, read them carefully, and asked while reading.

"How is the situation in the back mountain? Has anyone discovered anyone from the Golden Yuan Alliance recently?"

"No, according to what you said, I have been paying attention, but I didn't dare to go deep. As for the peripherals, I didn't find anyone suspicious."

…………

Xiaomian Inn is the nearest inn on the road to and from Yucheng Ferry. Because Yucheng is built on the mountain, it is different from those towns in the Central Plains. To reach Yucheng, you must either go over the mountains or cross country, or take the waterway.

Xiaomian Inn happens to be built on this important road, so if people traveling to and from Yucheng don't want to spend the night in the wild, most people will choose Xiaomian Inn as their place to stay.

Li Lianhua drove the Lotus Building all the way to the boundary of Yucheng. Because there was no supplies in the building, he went to Xiaomian Inn alone to supply supplies.

As soon as it got dark and it started to wind and rain outside again, he decided to rest in the inn for one night after dinner and set off for Yucheng tomorrow.

After eating and drinking, the waiter served him a piece of iced watermelon. He ate it while feeding the vixen, very leisurely.

At this moment, the door of the inn opened, and three more guests were welcomed in by the waiter. They were a noble gentleman in white clothes and his maid and servant.

The noble gentleman entered the inn and glanced around. When he saw Li Lianhua, his eyes suddenly lit up. He whispered a few instructions to his two followers, and then walked straight to Li Lianhua's table and sat down.

.

Fang Duobing, who had a fair face and handsome appearance, said to Li Lianhua with a smile but not a smile: "As the saying goes, mountains and rivers meet each other. It's easy to get away with something bad, but wouldn't it be embarrassing if we meet again?"

Li Lianhua smiled casually: "It turns out to be Mr. Fang, that's what happened. As for me, I was in a hurry to find a friend, and then went north again. I didn't bother to wait for you to wake up. I was really not thoughtful.

Come, I'll treat you to an iced watermelon."

As he said this, he was about to hand a bunch of watermelons to Fang Duobing, but Fang Duobing stretched out his hand to stop him.

"My young master doesn't like to eat melons. Doctor Li, I think you're leaving in a hurry because of Pu Erhuang."

Li Lianhua looked calm: "What does it have to do with Park Erhuang?"

Fang Duobing snorted coldly, and then expressed his suspicions. Only then did Li Lianhua know that Fang Duobing suspected that he was a drug demon, and she immediately felt very funny.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, there was a loud noise, followed by lightning, thunder, and a violent storm. The windows and doors of the inn were banged, and the guests dining in the inn were all frightened.

The guests at the table near Li Lianhua and the others couldn't help but curse: "It rains every day in this damn place, and the ground is full of dead people's bones. It's really evil and unlucky. If this wasn't the closest road to the ferry, I wouldn't be beaten to death."

come here."

Another customer quickly stopped his companion from continuing and advised: "Stop saying a few words, and let's not blame the store for having too much trouble. Just two days ago, I had a friend who saw two people when he was passing by the woods not far ahead.

The vendor was strangled to death by a skeleton that came from nowhere."

"So evil?" The person who just spoke suddenly shuddered.

Their conversation was overheard by the three guests at the table behind, and they all laughed.

"We often travel to and from this area, and things like this have become commonplace for a long time. To say that the biggest thing that has happened in this Jade City area recently, we have to say that the Yu family, the owner of Jade City, has undergone great changes."

"The Yu family? Is that the Yu family that controls most of the jade business in Yucheng?"

"Besides that Yu family, what other Yu family can there be? Among the merchants traveling to and from Yu City, who doesn't know how powerful the Yu family is. The eldest daughter of the Yu family, Mrs. Yu, is even more famous. But such a big shot is rumored to have disappeared soon.

It’s been January.”

"ah?"

What this guest said immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the inn, and other guests also talked about it.

"I have also heard that the original owners of Jade City were Mrs. Yu Yu Hongzhu and her husband Yu Mulan, and the current owners of the city have become Yu Qiu Shuang, the second lady of the Yu family. I just don't know what happened to the Yu family.

What kind of big change would cause Miss Yu Er, who is still a virgin, to be in charge of Jade City?"

Regarding this matter, the guests also started to talk about it.

"I heard that Miss Yu Er was originally a little girl who was inexperienced in the world. She was met with many doubts when she succeeded the city lord. However, with her domineering and bloody methods, she managed to carve out a bloody path and became the new city lord of Jade City.

It is said that she is more cruel and cruel than her sister."

"You really can't underestimate it. The Yu family has been able to control Yucheng for so many years. The two sisters of the Yu family are also heroines."

Suddenly someone said mysteriously: "I have a relative who works in Yucheng and heard some secrets about this incident in Yucheng."

"tell me the story."

Everyone was looking at this person with gossip. Dining in the inn was boring, but now that the topic was hot, everyone was naturally very interested.

At this time, the waiter came over with wine and food, and warned in a low voice: "Yucheng is very powerful, so gentlemen, you should be careful what you say."

Suddenly a customer shouted nonchalantly: "Yucheng is great, but we are just chatting casually and we are not on their territory. Do we need to be so cautious?"

"That's right, brother, don't worry, just go on and tell us what happened in Jade City."

Amidst everyone's cheers, the man just now revealed the secret he knew.

"Actually, the eldest daughter of the Yu family, Yu Hongzhu, did not disappear, but was harmed. The person who harmed her was her husband, City Lord Yu Mulan. Yu Mulan was the son-in-law of Yucheng. Although he was the Lord of the City in name, he

In fact, Yucheng is in charge of Yu Hongzhu."

"I heard that Yu Mulan owed a lot of money from gambling. In order to get the wealth of Yucheng, he hooked up with Yunjiao, the best friend of Yu Erqiu Shuang; the two conspired to kill Yu Hongzhu, and then wanted to kill Yu Qiu Shuang and monopolize Yucheng.

But Yu Qiu Shuang saw through the conspiracy and took action first to arrest Yu Mu Lan and that Yun Jiao. As for what happened to these two people in the end, I guess they must have been killed."

When everyone heard this plot, they were all shocked. This plot sounded very exciting, involving emotional entanglements, involving the inheritance of Tamaki, etc.

"But I just heard it. I don't know if it's true or not. Just listen to it, but don't spread it nonsense. If it angers the people in Yucheng, it's none of my business."

Li Lianhua and Fang Duobing also heard it, and frowned in thought.

Li Lianhua wants to find clues about the Golden Yuan Alliance from Jade City. Now that such a big change has happened in Jade City, there must be a lot of chaos at this time.

Fang Duobing's eyes were shining, it sounded like a big case, and what he wanted most now was to be exposed to a big case.

"Li Lianhua, if you want to get rid of suspicion, follow me to Yucheng to investigate the case." Fang Duobing stared at Li Lianhua with burning eyes.

Li Lianhua woke up from her deep thoughts and replied without giving any face: "What case to investigate? You won't say it's about Yucheng, right? This is their own internal dispute. What case do you want to investigate? If you want

Go check it out by yourself, I won’t accompany you.”

Fang Duobing put his sword on Li Lianhua's shoulder: "I don't give you a choice now. You have no choice. Either help me investigate the case, or I will escort you back to Baichuan Courtyard."

Li Lianhua said with an indifferent expression: "Baichuanyuan also wants to be reasonable. You have no basis. If you arrest me like this, you will be stripped of your name and will never be hired."

Fang Duobing's expression froze. This was holding his lifeline. He could only glare at Li Lianhua and retracted his sword unwillingly.

Li Lianhua chuckled and prepared to stand up.

"Where do you want to go?"

"After you've eaten, go back to your room and rest."

"no."

Fang Duobing's face tightened and he hurriedly stopped Li Lianhua. He was arranging Wangfu and Li'er to search Li Lianhua's room. If he asked Li Lianhua to go back at this time, wouldn't he be caught?

"What's wrong, Fang Shaoxia, can't I go back to the house and rest?"

"No, I still have something to ask. You can't leave now."

"I'm really impressed by you, Fang Shaoxia, if you have anything else you want to ask, please ask it quickly."
