The concubine is often difficult to mess with: Prince, please make way

Chapter 50 What happened to the investigation
These people will definitely live in Hucheng tonight, because after passing through Hucheng, there is a border battlefield where the flames of war are raging. Although the two sides are currently in a stalemate, pedestrians entering and leaving will be strictly checked, and generally they cannot pass.

If they came to join forces with Xue Yinfei, they would probably live temporarily in this Tiger City, and then use some kind of signal or let people stay.Notify them at critical moments, and then cooperate internally and externally.

When Jin Jiuying left Hucheng, Xue Yinfei hadn't left yet, and at this moment, he was probably halfway there.

"Xiaoer, here is a bowl of noodles." Jin Jiuying returned to Hucheng, first found a hotel on the only way to order something to eat, and then booked a room by the roadside window to see those people Ready to live where.

There are so many of them, but they are enough to attract attention, and it is impossible to hide them, so wherever they live, they are a conspicuous scenery.

"Xiao Er, bring some jars of good wine, and cut a few catties of cooked beef, and pack it for the master." When Jin Jiuying had just finished eating half of the noodles, a bearded man ran in and shouted.

As soon as the man entered, Jin Jiuying recognized the bearded man in the team of soldiers.

It's just that for some reason, this person came alone, and the others didn't know where he went.

"Okay, sir, your wine and beef."

The little second-hand was very nimble, and quickly moved several jars of wine and a large bag of beef to the big bearded man.

"Is it not peaceful for you recently? Is there another bad guy invading?"

When the bearded man was picking up something, he lowered his head and lowered his voice to ask the waiter in the shop.

"Taiping? Guest officer, are you from out of town?" The shop waiter's expression became uneasy when he heard those words.

Obviously, life here has not been easy in recent years, and the lives of ordinary people here are also quite bitter.

"To be honest, I'm a businessman, and I'm in the business of medicinal materials. Someone recommended me to come here, saying that I might need some medicinal materials here recently, and I might make a lot of money here, so I came here. I didn't expect to come here to have a look. , it seems something is wrong." The bearded man made up a lie to deceive the waiter.

It's just that his lies can be seen through by a normal person, with a beard on his face and a sword in his hand, he looks like a businessman.

Moreover, he even went to sell medicinal materials near the battlefield. This businessman, either lacked brains, or almost fooled people.

So Jin Jiuying, who was sitting in the corner, eating with her head down, lowered her hat quite a bit, for fear of showing him a sneaky smile accidentally.

"Brother, don't be angry. I'll tell you the truth. If you've done this business, I think you'll be fine if you go back without losing money. Don't expect to make any money."

The waiter in this shop is really not afraid of offending people. He replied very unfavorably to the bearded man's statement, and shook his head helplessly after speaking.

"Is it so serious?" The bearded man pretended to be surprised, looked at him in disbelief, and asked back with uncertainty.

"There is a disaster here, and the people can't eat. Many people are fleeing everywhere. Besides, the past few years have been turbulent. Hucheng's life is not as good as before."

The shop waiter had a helpless look on his face, and patiently replied to him. When he spoke, it was not difficult to see the melancholy on his face.

The bearded man was also silent, lowered his head, and raised his head after a long time: "The little brother knows, there is any big empty house nearby. It doesn't matter if it is owned by the owner. Put some medicine."

"Empty house, now there are empty houses everywhere in Hucheng, and people are almost running out." The waiter gave a wry smile, and while chatting, he had already cleaned a few tables.

"I'm afraid this place will be closed soon. I can't live this day."

After the waiter answered the bearded man, he shook his head, muttered to himself, and walked aside to get busy.

Hearing what he said, Jin Jiuying noticed that the business here is really not very good. Since she came, she only saw a bearded man, and no one else.

The bearded man didn't show much concern for the waiter's words, but after asking him what he wanted to ask, he held a jar of wine in one hand, then carried two more jars in his hand, and hugged him with the other hand. That big piece of beef carried the remaining two jars of wine.

After getting such a pile, this person didn't seem tired, and strode out.

After he went out, Jin Jiuying threw a piece of silver at the counter and followed him.

From what the man said, they probably won't be able to stay in the hotel and will find a vacant room to live in. Jin Jiuying is afraid that if he doesn't follow to get familiar with the place, it will be difficult to find them in the future.

Jin Jiuying was good at lightness, and followed him all the way without attracting the attention of the bearded man. Following him, he turned a few turns and passed through an alley. The man didn't know whether he had discovered something or was just suspicious.

When he came to an intersection, he stopped suddenly, turned around and looked back.

Jin Jiuying was following very closely at this moment, but fortunately she was quite familiar with this place, seeing him turn his head, she quickly hid in a teahouse and put it behind a roadside signboard.

Fortunately, the man turned his head and took a look. He didn't see anything unusual, so he quickened his pace and walked towards the ground.

Through the signboard, Jin Jiuying could also see his movements clearly. As soon as he walked inside, she quickly followed him.

Not far away, the bearded man stopped again, looked back, and after making sure that no one was following him, he quickly walked into the alley and entered a house.

"Third brother, you're back, how's the investigation going?" As soon as the bearded man entered the door, someone inside asked him about the situation when he went out to inquire.

"That girl is right. Now this place is in a mess. All the refugees have escaped. There are not many people left here, so there must be no one living in this house."

The bearded man put his things down and replied to them.

"By the way, what did you check?" The bearded man asked for help, took all the things out of his hands, and then asked them back.

"Imperial City is searching the city. The people don't know exactly what they are searching for. They just heard that it may be related to Uncle Shen Rong." The tall man also followed his words and told the people here what he had heard. said.

"Only in Hucheng, not on the battlefield?" The leader raised his head and asked the two of them.

"Basically not. I only heard that the person Uncle Guo chased and killed might be a spy." The tall man sighed helplessly.

"It seems that Zhu Guoli has blocked the news very strictly." The leader also smiled bitterly, and then added: "Then there is no news about Fan Yue, have you found out about Xue Yinfei?"
