Xiao Chong and Ye Lan bid farewell for the time being. The fact that they came to Luobei City should not be known to others for the time being, let alone their connection with Ye Lan, Liang Qiu and others.

He and Chang Qin took a detour before walking back to the new house.

Xiao Chong sighed, "These days, you stay in the mansion first, don't go out easily, I always feel..." He narrowed his eyes slightly, looked behind him sideways, and continued, "Maybe our enemy has already noticed what."

"En." Chang Qin nodded, then pointed to an alley to the west, "Go over there."

Xiao Chong understood what Chang Qin meant, and the two of them quickened their pace at the same time.

They all grew up in Luobei City, and they remembered every street and alley here clearly. They walked left and right, and those who followed them lost their way first.

Just as the man was standing in the middle of the alley, at a loss, Chang Qin approached him from behind and stabbed him with a knife, just knocking him out. He held the man by the collar, "Kill him or not?"

"It's useless to kill him now, and killing one will only make the other party more suspicious."

"Then..." Chang Qin looked at the fainted spy and frowned, "It's too heavy, I don't want to take it back."

Xiao Chong thinks about it too, is it difficult for spies to recruit people now, this person's waist is almost as thick as his own and Chang Qin's, it would be good if he didn't knock this person out just now.

But up to this point, I had to cough twice, holding my face, "I'll lift it with you."

Chang Qin glanced at him, naturally clear in his heart, and snorted.

In order not to be conspicuous, they chose places with winding paths and no people, so the distance was more than doubled, and the spy woke up once in the middle, and was knocked unconscious by Xiao Chong again.

When they dragged the spies to the back door of the house, they saw Xue Rui humming a tune, holding a small jug in his hand, "Hey, general, what are you doing?"

Good load bearer.

Xiao Chong waved to Xue Rui, "Come."

Xue Rui ran over happily, saw the fat pig behind the two of them, and was about to turn around when Chang Qin put his arm on his shoulder.

Xue Ruike was afraid of Chang Qin's gloomy expression, and resigned himself to his fate, "In Guanchai's room?"

"Well," Xiao Chong nodded, "find two people to watch, and take a good look at it by the way."

After Chang Qin gave the person to Xue Rui, he shook his arms and walked into his room.

Xiao Chong also had no objection, and ordered Xue Rui to do two more things, and dragged along with Xue Rui.

When they walked into the yard, the soldiers who were resting saw them and hurried over to help.

"How is it, General," Xue Rui asked, "Have you seen your young master?"

Xiao Chong nodded, "En."

"I really envy you. The relationship is really good. I was in the army with my brother. He didn't take a word with me for half a year, let alone send me a letter every month."

"Yes." Xiao Chong nodded, "Master, he likes me better."

"It can be seen," Xue Rui smiled, "Bring me to meet someday, I've always been curious."

"Ah."

Xiao Chong said to Xue Rui again, "You have to ask yourself about this person. Luo Beicheng's forces are complicated, but you must find out who is behind him."

Xue Rui looked serious, "I know."

Luobei City has always been placed at the end of the strategy, because Luobei City has a developed economy and has won the support of many city owners. It is a force that cannot be underestimated in the northern border.

Unlike Changling's violent occupation of other cities, the lord of Luobei City is more diplomatic, changing the other party from a cooperative relationship to a vassal without any trace, and the other party is still willing.

He Ying has always been good at these things, Xiao Chong recalled seeing his smiling face in the early years, and he didn't know what his scheming had become all these years.

"In the past two days, Nuanxiang Pavilion will send people to deliver letters, and all those letters will be handed over to me directly, except for the ones marked to be received frequently."

"Ah."

"Also, if you go out frequently, it's best to send someone to keep an eye on it."

"I see," Xue Rui responded, but he was still curious. Chang Qin and Xiao Chong have been inseparable for the past two years, why did they return to Luobei City, and Xiao Chong took precautions against Chang Qin?

Xiao Chong saw through Xue Rui's thoughts at a glance, "Chang Qin's clansmen are still in the city, and they are trying their best to find him. I have already told him not to go out, but I am afraid that people who are interested will still attack him. There are flaws, so you must find someone to keep an eye on him, and we can take precautions in advance if there is any danger."

Xue Rui nodded. In fact, he didn't know much about the past of Xiao Chong and Chang Qin. He only knew that they had lived in Luobei City.

But their connection to the city was unknown to him.

But he didn't care, after all, he was willing to be subordinate to these two people because of their strength, which had nothing to do with their backgrounds.

He said goodbye to Xiao Chong, rubbed the back of his neck and went to find the fat pig.

Xiao Chong sat in the room, finished his business, and then stared blankly at the table.

He left a lot of time to think about Ye Lan.

How can Ye Lan remain unchanged at all, as if there is a shallow line under his eyes?

That's nice too.

Xiao Chong's smile was a bit obsessed, but fortunately his subordinates were not there, otherwise, seeing him like this, they would definitely think he was a demon.

Getting along with these simple-minded soldiers actually made Xiao Chong's personality a lot more relaxed, but Ye Lan didn't seem to hate this kind of himself.

Xiao Chong covered his face, the more he thought about it, the more excited he became.

He felt that he and Ye Lan had just started, and the reunion yesterday should be the beginning of their story.

Xiao Chong finally felt that he could stand upright opposite Ye Lan without looking up to him.

……

But that's not the case with Ye Lan.

"Second Young Master, where is Xiao Chong, why didn't you come back with you?"

"He has other things to deal with," Ye Lan sighed, "You won't recognize him when you see him."

"How come, it's only been two years, what else can Xiao Chong become?"

"I've become a giant." Ye Lan thought about the height difference between the two again, and shook her head, "Where is Zhang Tao, I have to work hard, it's fine if I'm short, if I'm shorter than him!"

"Really, Xiao Chong is taller than you now?!" After Taohua was surprised, she patted her thigh, "If I had known that he would grow taller and stronger now, I should have acted first!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Tao Hua gave Ye Lan a hard time, "It's always been me, don't daydream about me, if you can't marry yourself..."

Speaking of this, Ye Lan quickly braked the brakes, saying that she could not get married was a big taboo in Taohua's ears.

After a while, I saw peach blossoms all over the yard chasing Ye Lan with a big broom.

"Peach Blossom, Peach Blossom," Ye Xi ran over, and when he saw this scene, he paused for a while, undecided between his brother and best friend.

"Help me!" Ye Xi didn't say anything until Ye Lan asked for help, "Taohua, let me talk to my brother first, and then you can fight."

Taohua's broom spun around in mid-air, "OK."

Ye Xi asked Ye Lan, "Have you visited Mr. Zhang's house?"

Ye Lan nodded.

"How about it?"

Ye Lan thought for a while, "He's a good-looking guy, but he always speaks vigorously, but nobles can understand it."

"Tell the truth," Ye Xi puffed his face, "are you that kind of prudish playboy again?"

Dude, Ye Lan rolled his eyes and thought about it, suddenly felt something was wrong, looked at his sister, and said dissatisfiedly, "What prejudice do you have against us dudes?"

"I don't want to marry someone like that!" Ye Xi stamped his feet, turned around and ran away.

Taohua looked at her, and couldn't help but sigh, "There are so many people who have come to propose marriage to Miss, but she doesn't have a match, what should I do?"

"It's not good, you two can be good sisters for a lifetime, the kind that can't get married."

After Ye Lan finished speaking, she got into the room, closed the door, and inserted the lock, perfect.

Finally, it can be cleaned up.

With a smile on his face, Ye Lan walked to his bookshelf to observe. He took down a sandalwood box and opened it with the key he carried with him. Looking at the white letter paper inside, he couldn't help but want to laugh. , but how can these left and right strokes compare to the moving eyes that are full of light.

He spread the letter papers on the table one by one, smelled the fragrance of ink left on them, and thought of the smell blown by the wind and snow on Xiao Chong's body yesterday, he was silent for a long time.

He barely slept last night.

Not too excited to sleep.

It's just that he was afraid that Xiao Chong beside him was just a phantom in his dream, and he always had to touch his hand twice to fall asleep, but when you closed your eyes, the Xiao Chong in the dream could no longer be touched, so he had to wake up again...

Repeatedly, Ye Lan tired herself out.

He gently put his face on it, as if he could feel the warmth from Xiao Chong's palm before.

This excitement made Ye Lan take a breath, he turned his head, and suddenly thought of something.

Xiao Chong didn't even kiss him!

……

Xue Rui rubbed his hands in front of the charcoal fire. He didn't look at the person tied to the pillar, but just looked at the flames in front of him, "Whether you say it or not is the same way, you know it in your heart."

"That's right, I'm very clear!" The spy turned his head with a backbone, "So I won't say a word!"

"Tsk tsk, I admire people like you, real man." Xue Rui shrugged his shoulders, stood up, and picked up a piece of charcoal with tongs in his hand, "After all, I am a soldier. Apart from executing people neatly, There are no other ways to torture people."

"Great, give me a good time!"

"Ha," Xue Rui chuckled, "I don't have people who will, and I've heard that Luobei City is mixed with fish and dragons, and there are all kinds of businesses. I don't know if there are any who can torture."

"Ah, is there a Liang family?" Xue Rui's expression was exaggerated, "I heard that he is a master of both black and white, and their family has opened several dance shops and brothels." He hissed, "I guess they know how to torture better."

Xue Rui saw that Fatty's expression changed, so he continued to smile and said, "Professional things should be left to professional people. As for me, I have already sent someone to invite, the owner of Nuanxiang Pavilion, right?"

"You are a local, so you don't need to tell me about yourself. I'll just ask you about that Liang Qiu." Xue Rui raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is he very powerful?"

"You colluded with the Liang family?!"

"Oh, we are all from Changling, and we don't know anything about Luo Beicheng, but we caught a killer before and mentioned this Liang Qiu, and when we heard that we were going to hand him over to Liang Qiu for interrogation, we immediately fell in love with him." He bit his tongue and killed himself," he looked at the fat man, "Really?"

The fat man's greasy face trembled, and his cheeks bulged.

Xue Rui hurried forward and put the charcoal on Fatty's chest.

The fur on his chest was burnt black.

The fat man took a deep breath, keeping a slight distance from the charcoal in Xue Rui's hand.

Xue Rui smiled, "You can't commit suicide like this, I've always wanted to meet that Liang Qiu, you must give me a chance."

"You, you, you," the fat man's lips trembled, "I, I, I..."

"Are you a hen, oops?"

"I really don't know anything. The higher-ups only told me to follow those two people and find where you are staying."

"Since when did you start following?"

"Yesterday, it started when I entered the city yesterday."

"Did you see them enter the Nuanxiang Pavilion?"

The fat man was silent for a while, Xue Rui gently scraped the charcoal on his belly, and he immediately screamed, "Yes yes yes!"

"You stayed out all night?"

"Yes..." the fat man took a breath, "I didn't sleep at all."

"Do you know how to contact the people above you?"

"I, I don't know, I haven't seen his face," the fat man trembled all over his body, and the sweat kept slipping off in winter, "He hasn't seen me either! The first time they wrote down what they wanted me to do and hid it in the cracks in the bricks in a narrow alley of the long street, and then I hid the collected information back.”

"Then you haven't told them about the Nuanxiang Pavilion?"

"Yes yes yes! I don't think I have collected all of them, so I haven't said anything yet."

"You're smart."

Xue Rui asked again, "Which alley, let me explain clearly."

The fat man said all tremblingly, Xue Rui asked the soldiers beside him to memorize it clearly, and sent it to Xiao Chong.

After a while, the soldier came back and whispered something in Xue Rui's ear.

Xue Rui nodded, indicating that he understood, and said to the relieved fat man, "The general thinks your information is very useful."

The fat man panted heavily, tears streaming down his face, "Thank you, General, thank you!"

Xue Rui pursed his lips, "So he hopes that I can make you die quickly."

Fatty's expression froze, Xue Rui had already stabbed the tongs directly into his heart.

The author has something to say: this time I wrote it with all my might, if there is no list tomorrow, I will take a break, okay?
