The man poured a cup of hot water and handed it to the man: "If you are willing to take my people there, I will not only give you all the food and wine on the table, but also reward you with a big silver coin. Do you want to do it?"
The man hadn't eaten for a long time, he was cold and hungry, and when he saw the food and wine on the table, they all glowed green.
"He lives with his old lady in a few thatched cottages in Linhai. I often see him selling rabbits and wild geese at the market. It's a trivial matter to take you to his house."
The man's eyes were bright, and he looked at Zi Yan: "What do you think?"
Zi Yan showed her white teeth, and said with a smile, "How did you find him?"
The man said: "This morning, when I was strolling outside the city gate, I happened to see him watching the coffin. He pointed to the person in the coffin and said he knew him, so I brought him here. As long as he can lead us to find Xue'er's Home, find out Xueer's identity, and your heart will be healed."
Zi Yan: "That's natural! The person who threatens me the most now is Xue'er. I always feel that she entered the palace just now because of me. I must dig out her details!"
Thinking of being punished by Yan Li to clean the square because of "Xue'er", the fire of ignorance in his heart burned up, wishing to strangle "Xue'er" to death now, the day before, assassinating "Xue'er" again It didn't work, which made Ziyan even more angry.
The man pointed to the person who brought him: "With him, are we afraid that we won't be able to find out about Xue'er's details?"
So Ziyan asked the man: "Since you know the person in the coffin, do you know that he has a daughter named Xue'er?"
That person was just a poor family, living on the street, and had been rescued by Eunuch Fan once or twice, so he knew where Eunuch Fan's thatched cottage was. Hearing Ziyan's question, the shabby scratched his head and thought for a while.
"I haven't heard him mention this. I don't know if he has a daughter."
Zi Yan continued to ask: "Do you know who else is in his family?"
The shabby said: "Yes! He has an old woman who lives with him in the thatched cottage."
Ziyan raised the corner of her mouth: "As long as there is someone, it will be easy." Then she said to the man, "You send someone to follow him to find Xueer's house, no matter what method you use, you must ask Xueer's details. "
The man said: "Why do you need to order this! After a while, I will order someone to go."
Rong Changan who was hiding outside the pavilion was very anxious. She wished she could go back to the thatched cottage now and transfer the old lady. But she can't leave, she has to be with Yan Li tomorrow. There was no longer any delay, she had to find someone to notify the old lady and Lin Hai.
In a hurry, when Rong Changan came out from behind the wooden board, he knocked against the wooden board and made a sound. I only heard someone shouting in the pavilion:
"who is it!"
Rong Changan flew to the front, Dr. Jiu saw her, and said apologetically, "Miss, are your clothes finished?"
Rong Changan didn't have time to talk to him, so he fled out of the hotel in one stride. The man chased him out from the attic, and looked at the door, but Rong Changan was nowhere to be seen.
"Did someone go out just now?"
Dr. Jiu replied: "There is a female guest who has just walked out, why has she disappeared! It's so strange!"
"A female guest?" The man narrowed his eyes suspiciously, his face serious. "Did you see what she looked like?"
Dr. Jiu shook his head: "She's wearing a veil, so she can't see clearly. I spilled beef juice on her just now, and she went to the back to wash it, and left without saying a word after washing it."
The man clapped his hands together: "No, this person is probably here to hear the news!"
He quickly turned around and went back to the pavilion, Zi Yan asked quickly: "Have you caught anyone?"
In fact, this man is Li Hao.
Li Hao said with a thoughtful face: "She ran away, it was a woman. The action was so fast, and I couldn't see anyone when I went out."
Everyone was shocked. The hotel owner thought for a while, and then realized: "There was a female customer washing clothes beside me just now, could it be that she was eavesdropping?"
Zi Yan: "Is this female guest the masked woman who broke in last night?"
As soon as Ziyan reminded her, the hotel owner opened her eyes even more: "Yes, it's her! I remember now, the eyes of the female guest and the woman from last night are exactly the same!"
Li Hao realized the seriousness of the matter, and looked at each other with Zi Yan.
Li Hao: "It's not good, someone must be eyeing this hotel, we can't meet here in the future, we have to change places."
Zi Yan nodded: "Let's leave here quickly."
Li Hao quickly left the hotel with the shabby settlement and Ziyan. When Ziyan returns to the palace, Li Hao sends people to follow the broken house to find "Xue'er"'s home.
Rong Chang'an didn't go back to the palace, he turned into a dental shop on the street and found an old woman named Zhao.
"Hi, I'm looking for someone to run errands for me, do you have one here?"
The old woman smiled all over her face: "I don't have anything here! I'll find whoever you want."
Rong Changan took out an ingot of five taels of silver and put it on the table: "I want an errand runner. I want him to walk a hundred miles in a day and send me an urgent letter."
Mrs. Zhao was a little troubled, and she frowned: "Walk a hundred miles in one day, that's a miracle! I don't have anyone who walks so fast here. The fastest way to a hundred miles won't be until tomorrow. , I will come back to give you information the day after tomorrow."
Rong Changan said with a smile: "Walking is definitely not that fast, what if riding a horse?"
Mrs. Zhao looked puzzled: "If you want to find a messenger on horseback, you can just go to the post station. Why do you need to ask me?"
Rong Chang'an: "The postmen at the post station have a set delivery time, either once every four days, or once every ten days. My matter is very urgent, and I need to let the other party know immediately, so I have to leave immediately."
Mrs. Zhao glanced at the five taels of silver on the table, her eyes filled with disdain: "If you want to use a horse, it's not just five taels of silver."
Rong Changan took a golden flower hairpin from the bun and put it on the table: "This golden flower hairpin is enough for a hundred taels of silver, you take it!"
Mrs. Zhao looked at the flower hairpin, inlaid with several big jewels, so dazzling that she couldn't pull out the hairpin from her eyes.
"One hundred taels, it's... too much!"
Rong Changan: "Not much, not much! As long as you can get a reply, I will give you some money back."
Mrs. Zhao put the silver and flower hairpins into her sleeves, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'll find it for you right away!"
Half an hour later, Mrs. Zhao found a young and strong guy, who led a fast horse and stood at the door.
Mrs. Zhao praised: "His name is Wang Si, and he can ride two hundred miles a day on horseback. Let this matter be left to him!"
Rong Changan smiled in satisfaction: "Wait for me for a while!" Then he said to Mrs. Zhao, "Lend me a pen and paper, and I will write a letter."
So Mrs. Zhao brought Rong Changan ink and brushes. Rong Changan opened his frozen hands, wrote a letter, sealed it with wax, and handed it to Wang Si.
"You take this letter from me, go to the thatched cottage, and give it to a man named Lin Hai. Then ask him to write me a reply, and when I get the reply, I will naturally reward you again."
Wang Si took the letter, got on his horse, bid farewell to Rong Changan and Mrs. Zhao, left Nanxun Gate, and ran all the way to the thatched cottage.
Seeing Wang Si leave, Rong Changan prayed silently in his heart, hoping that Wang Si could rush to the thatched cottage before the people sent by Ziyan, and hand over her letter to Lin Hai.
Although Wang Si started at the back, lagging behind the men sent by Zi Yan and Li Hao, but in order to get the silver reward from Rong Changan, Wang Si ran all the way, quickly caught up with Zi Yan and Li Hao's men, and overtook them.
Wang Si handed Rong Chang'an's letter to Lin Hai, and Lin Hai replied a brief message to Rong Chang'an, asking Wang Si to take it back. He explained to the old woman again, told her what Rong Changan had fabricated, and when Yan Li came, he would tell Yan Li according to what Rong Changan wanted.
After explaining, Lin Hai rode his horse, planning to go to the inn on the market to hide for a while, and return to the thatched cottage after Yan Li left.
