Taiping Inn

As the capital of Jiangzhou, Jinling Prefecture is extremely large. Among the four cities in the southeast, west and north, even the smaller North City is much larger than a Beimang County. If you look down from a high altitude, the entire Jinling City is like It is a chessboard that has been magnified countless times.

There are eight famous and surnamed mansions in the Qian family in Jinling Mansion, just like eight chess pieces on a chessboard, which shows that the size of these eight mansions is huge. In addition to these eight mansions, there are many people with other people's names or those that are small and unknown, such as Qian Yulong's private house.

After returning to Jinling Mansion, Qian Yulou did not rush to his ancestral home, but instead settled in a quiet mansion in the north city.

This was originally a private residence of a retired official, but later generations were not good at it and gambled and mortgaged the private residence. Later, Qian Yulou bought it as her hidden place for her accommodation.

At this time, she was receiving a distinguished guest. If Li Xuandu was also here, she would not feel unfamiliar, because this distinguished guest was the one who met Han Yaoyue, the deputy leader of the Wangqing Sect outside Anqing Mansion, and followed Han. A woman named "Blue Slave" beside Yao Yue.

Han Yaoyue has been doing something from the moment she entered the door, which is to look at the woman in front of her, her eyes are pure without any evil thoughts, as if she is appreciating a piece of porcelain or jade, and it is not like she is looking at a beautiful woman.

Qian Yulou was indifferent to Han Yaoyue's gaze from beginning to end. In fact, when Han Yaoyue looked at her, she was also examining the deputy leader of the Wangqing Sect who looked young but was not confused at the age of age.

In this world, I am most afraid that you will have me and I will have you. The relationship between her and her elder brother Qian Yulong is generally like this, so both of them can guess the trump card in each other's hands, so at this time, there is only one Two options are either to win openly and openly, or to learn to "hide cards". In a sense, Han Yaoyue is a trump card hidden by Qian Yulou, hoping to play unexpectedly at critical moments. Even the role of turning the situation around.

Qian Yulou is not a woman with ambition but incompetent. On the contrary, since she was a child, she has shown a smart and capable maniac who is far beyond her peers. Otherwise, she would not have the idea of ​​competing with her elder brother Qian Yulong for the throne of the head of the family. In her opinion, Except for the eldest son, there is nothing that can match him. So after she got married, she took the initiative to leave her comfortable ancestral home and go to the masturbation southwest to run a family business. While managing the family business, , and also got close to the Dao Zong Sect and the Pin Nu Sect among the five sects in the northwest. They even used the path of the Pin Nu Sect to connect with the Wangqing Sect, which was far away in Liaodong.

Of course, her elder brother Qian Yulong was not idle either. When she made friends with the five northwest sects, Qian Yulong also actively participated in the twelve sects of righteous path. Unfortunately, he was involved in the "Four and Six Controversy". Although he did not cause any trouble, It can be said that the harvest of Tao is almost like a thing, and it can almost be said to have done useless work. From the perspective of a merchant, this transaction was not profitable, but it was just barely guaranteed to make a capital.

In Qian Yulou's opinion, she had already regained her disadvantages between the in and out. The two of them could almost be considered a balance of power. The next thing depends on their respective skills.

After a couple looked at each other for a long time, Han Yaoyue finally said, "Miss Qian Er."

"Just Master Han just asked me Qian Er." Qian Yulou said, "In our Qian family, the elders have always called him this."

Han Yaoyue smiled and said, "Okay, I will call you Qian Er in the future. Don't call me Master Han, just call me Yaoyue."

Qian Yulou smiled faintly and answered.

At this moment, a manager hurried outside the door. Although the door was open, he did not dare to cross the threshold rashly, so he could only reach out and knock on the door a few times.

Qian Yulou frowned slightly and asked, "What's the matter?"

The manager carefully walked around the back of the chair and whispered in Qian Yulou's ear: "Miss Second, something happened in the south city."

Qian Yulou suddenly stood up.

The manager immediately became nervous and stepped back aside, not daring to say a word.

Qian Yulou took a deep breath, calmed down a little, and said to Han Yaoyue, "Please forgive me, I want to lose my companion for a while."

Han Yaoyue smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, just go."

Qian Yulou did not give a blessing like a woman, but instead gave a man's bow, then turned around and left, but the manager followed Qian Yulou step by step and walked out.

After walking a distance, Qian Yulou's face turned gloomy and he asked, "What the hell is going on?"

The manager was sweating profusely and said, "It was a problem with Mrs. Liu. This morning, Xiao Wu went to see Mrs. Zhang, but he didn't find it. He had to leave a mark first, but at dusk, he still didn't respond. Then he panicked and sent a lot of people to find him. In the end, a master of the Dao Zong Sect used a secret technique to find the person..."

Mrs. Liu is Liu Yushuang, Xiaowu is another confidant in Qian Yulou, and Zhang Po is the innate old woman responsible for protecting Liu Yushuang.

"Where is the person?" Qian Yulou stopped suddenly and asked sternly, "Where is Po Zhang?"

The manager seemed to be pinching his throat and said in a hoarse voice: "Die...Die. When she found her, her body was about to float to the estuary. If it was a little later, it would be completely impossible to find it."

A dark look flashed through Qian Yulou's eyes: "Did Qian Yulong notice it? Or..."

I have to say that the one who knows you best is usually your enemy, and the one who knows Qian Yulong's best is Qian Yulou. She is both a sister and an opponent, so she naturally knows Qian Yulong's style of doing things. She immediately reacts to Qian Yulong's personality. If you find out that Zhang Po is against him, you will definitely not take action as soon as possible. Instead, you will take Zhang Po as an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

If Qian Yulong sent someone to kill Zhang Po, then two things will be explained: First, Qian Yulong had already discovered that Zhang Po had been rebelling for a long time, and he was using tricks, so Liu Yushuang would not be reliable; Second, Zhang Po must have known something , even the key to Qian Yulong's planning, so Qian Yulong has to silence him even if he risked his attack.

But this is just a speculation. If Zhang Po died of grudges and revenge in the martial arts world and Qian Yulong was not aware of this, then she would "rebel without telling her own actions" and expose Liu Yushuang, the secret son, in vain.

Qian Yulou was a little confused about whether Qian Yulong was setting up a suspicion array in the old days. His mood became darker and he asked, "Have you found out the cause of death?"

The cold sweat on the manager's forehead was getting more and more: "It's been found out, it's the work of Wandumen."

"Wandumen." Qian Yulou snorted coldly and murmured, "No one can hire Wandumen to kill people, but I can't catch my feet. It's really a waste of water, but I'm not the judge, so why bother What kind of evidence is that there is no flaw, and if some things are done too cleanly, it will be over. In this way, the matter of Zhang Po’s rebellion has been exposed, so Liu Yushuang is unreliable."

Qian Yulou firmly determined his inference and immediately asked, "Have you ever had any abnormal movements in the past few days?"

The manager thought about it and hesitated, "It seems that the day before yesterday, she arranged one of her cousins ​​into the fleet. The lady had told us to treat her with courtesy, which was a trivial matter, so... so the boat The team agreed. "

Qian Yulou did not take his anger on his subordinates, but his face became more and more gloomy and ordered: "Call people and go to the dock."

The manager hesitated for a moment: "Who are you going to call?"

Qian Yulou closed his eyes and said word by word: "Raising troops for a thousand days, using troops for a while. It's time for the Promoter who has eaten a lot of money to do something, and ask him to send the wastes under his command to fill the entire dock. They surrounded them, cleared the field, drove away ordinary people and cargo ships, and then let the people of the Daozhong Sect clean up the mess. They must catch that person and catch them alive."

Qian Yulou reached out and tapped his forehead lightly and continued, "Also, send some people to Liu Yushuang to take a look. If Qian Yulong took her away or sent someone to escort her, he would withdraw it first. If not Take her away, and you will catch Liu Yushuang back."

"In addition, someone from Qinxiang Villa will also send you to inform me."

The manager respectfully accepted the order, then turned around and left quickly.
