Shui Linglong looked back at Liu Yun, and asked very strangely: "You are fine, why are you asking this?"

Liu Yun looked indifferent, but his heart was very nervous, looking at the light purple Shui Linglong, Liu Yun felt that he had missed something, smiled and said: "I just want to know which hero can make my cousin Are you tempted?"

Shui Linglong smiled, that smile made Liu Yun lose his mind suddenly.

Walking to a big red box, Shui Linglong lifted the red silk cloth, inside was high-quality enamel ceramics, Shui Linglong picked up a small wine glass, and asked, "Where did you get these?"

Liu Yun frowned, smiled and said, "Why do you want it?"

Shui Linglong cast a blank glance at Liu Yun, playing with a string of white jade and pearl bracelets in her hands, and said, "Didn't you hear that just now? I'll keep these!"

Liu Yun walked up to Shui Linglong, and asked without giving up: "Cousin, you haven't said who it is yet."

Shui Linglong admired these antiques and said, "What does it have to do with you?"

Liu Yun said solemnly: "It's not because you are afraid that you won't be able to get married, cousin, so you just find someone. If you want me to say, cousin, do you want to think about me again?"

Qiu Fan next to him also echoed, "Yes, princess! Doesn't that Xue Qiu dislike you?"

"What? Xue Qiu?" Surprised, Liu Yun asked uncertainly.

Qiu Shan nodded, with an angry look, he said fiercely: "That Xue Qiu thinks that he is the number one scholar in the new discipline, so he is number one in the world. How dare he refuse the princess?"

"He doesn't like cousin?" Liu Yun asked again.

Qiu Shan wanted to say something more, but when she saw Shui Linglong's face darken, she stopped talking.

Shui Linglong put down the coral bracelet in her hand, and asked, "Cousin, you are not going back yet. I can't guarantee when uncle will know about you."

Liu Yun also knew that the No. [-] Scholar in the capital, and now he is still the General of Zhennan, compared with him, Liu Yun felt a heavy sense of frustration. No wonder his cousin fell in love with him, but he couldn't figure out how he would refuse, Could it also be because of some rumors outside.

Liu Yun didn't know that Xue Qiu only knew that Shui Linglong had a prominent status, but he didn't even know who he was, let alone any rumors.

Gathering up his courage, Liu Yun suddenly stood in front of Shui Linglong, only a foot away, looked directly at Shui Linglong, and said in a deep voice, "Cousin, will I marry you?"

"Not good!" Shui Linglong directly refused without any hesitation.

"Why? Doesn't that Xue Qiu dislike you?" Liu Yun asked.

Shui Linglong walked around Liuyun and said, "I don't like you!"

Liu Yun walked up to Shui Linglong again, blocked Shui Linglong's way, and said, "Cousin, I really like you."

"Like it? Then do you know what it means to like it?"

"I know! I want to marry you!"

"Marry me? Besides marrying me, who else do you want to marry? And if you like someone, you don't have to be with him. Do you know this?"

In Wuzhou Governor's Mansion of Guangdong and Guangxi, Xue Qiuzheng and Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi Tian Qing'an pointed to the huge sand table on the table and talked about some things in the main hall of the government office, and their personal subordinates stood beside them.

Tian Qing'an is almost 30 years old, wearing a light-colored thin shirt, his handsome appearance is a bit tougher than Xue Qiu's, with a smile on his brows and eyes, he said: "Yun Xiao, thanks to your strategy this time, I was able to hit you hard. to these pirates."

Xue Qiu didn't dare to take the credit, and said modestly, "Where? It's my lord who commanded me well."

Tian Qing'an smiled, looking at Xue Qiu's modest appearance, he was very satisfied in his heart. He is neither arrogant nor impetuous, he is young and promising, thinking that he didn't know where he was still messing around when he was sixteen, he really deserves to be the champion of the three yuan and the first place.Tian Qing'an smiled, "You should stop being self-effacing. This is your credit, and no one can take it away. It's just what should we do next?"

Xue Qiu looked at the sand table, frowned and thought for a while before saying: "The most important thing now is to find the hiding place of the pirates. According to the information obtained from forced confessions, the pirates should have four hiding places. They are here, here. , and here, the last place should be here." Xue Qiu pointed to four places on the sand table, Anzhou, Ningzhou, and Huaihe County, and the last place pointed to Wuzhou.

Tian Qing'an asked suspiciously: "How is it possible that there are also Wuzhou? There have never been pirates in Wuzhou."

Xue Qiu smiled, pointed to the border of Wuzhou on the sand table, and said: "Wuzhou is located at the junction of Guangdong and Guangxi, and it is very close to the sea. Three sides meet Anzhou, Ningzhou and Huaihe County. Besides, Wuzhou is also the most safe place."

Tian Qing'an nodded, agreeing with Xue Qiu's statement in his heart, but still asked: "Then why didn't Wuzhou be mentioned in the confession?"

Xue Qiu picked up a cup of tea beside him, took a sip, and said, "Obviously they didn't hide it, but they really don't know about this place."

Tian Qing'an nodded, he also believed that under such a harsh criminal law, there would be no secrets.

Jiang Chong beside him couldn't help asking: "General, the gates of Wuzhou are so strict, how can they come in and out freely?"

Xue Qiu smiled, looked out the door, and said: "This is the most important reason why Wuzhou is their fourth hiding place. Only here will someone help them get the news they want."

Jiang Chong asked tentatively: "The general is saying that someone is a spy, and he is among us."

Xue Qiu smiled, noncommittal, turned his head to Tian Qing'an and said with a smile: "Brother Qing'an, you should be very clear about this!"

Tian Qing'an also smiled and nodded, "I believe this matter will come to fruition soon."

Jiang Chong frowned, and asked directly: "Who is it? Why didn't your lord just find him out?"

Xue Qiu went to the chair and sat down, smiled, with a somewhat unpredictable look, "Now is not the time!"

At this moment, a servant came in, bowed and said, "My lord, here is a letter from General Xue, which is from the capital."

Tian Qing'an smiled, and said to Xue Qiu: "Yun Xiao, I'm afraid my younger siblings miss you very much, so I wrote you a letter!"

Xue Qiu smiled wryly, and said, "Brother Qing'an, stop teasing Yun Xiao. Yun Xiao is still alone."

"What? You are not married yet?" Tian Qing'an asked in surprise.How could this Xue Qiu with such a good family background and character not get married yet?He asked again: "Is it because Yun Xiao is asking too much? Do you want me to talk about a marriage for you, brother?"

Xue Qiu shook his head and didn't want to talk about this topic. He took the letter from the servant and asked, "He's from the capital?"

The servant nodded and said: "It is said that it was delivered in a hurry, I am afraid there is something urgent."

Xue Qiu's expression changed, and his heart tightened, is there something urgent?Could it be that something happened to the mother?
