The snow became heavier and heavier, and the snowflakes as big as goose feathers came to the face with the cold wind, making Qian Yuan a little unable to open his eyes.

He took the umbrella in Zhang San's hand and blocked it. After carefully identifying it, he found the alley. Qian Yuan left without saying a word.

Yang Wen, behind him, glanced at the brothel with vague lights, walked a few steps and whispered: "Young Master, don't be..."

"Xuhua and asked Liu why he was taking you with him?" Qian Yuan snorted angrily, "What's more, let's ask you to bring your weapons!"

Zhang San and Yang Wen exchanged their eyes, and were at a loss. After the young master returned home, he sighed without stopping. He was about to leave the house at the third day.

In other words, the Xiang family did not have much guards, and the group climbed out of the wall.

Since he heard that name, Qian Yuan had been restless. He had inquired in a vague way. The Chen Zhiyu family had a fierce wife who dared not stay overnight, so he secretly left the mansion with Yang Wen and others.

"It's this family." Qian Yuan narrowed his eyes and identified it, "knocking on the door."

Yang Wen knocked for a while but there was no movement inside. He turned around and saw Qian Yuan making a gesture.

Yang Wen grinned, pulled out the dagger from his arms and tamped it a few times and opened the door smoothly. Zhang San hesitated and walked into the door with his waist knife, thinking that his young master was going to rob the house?

There were sharp shouts from a woman, the sound of tables and chairs falling to the ground, and the sound of crying...

Although the sound was not loud, it sounded quite harsh in the quiet alley in the night. Qian Yuan strode into the house and looked at the dim light of the lit candles. The two women were curled up at the foot of the bed and trembling.

"It's you..." The younger woman recognized Qian Yuan. She should be her sister Wang Lushu.

Zhang San glanced at the woman and looked back at Qian Yuan... The young master is not robbing the family, I am afraid it is robbing!

A round stool was lifted from the ground and placed it beside the bed, gently brushing away the dust with its sleeves. Qian Yuan took a closer look, "Wang Cuiqiao?"

Seeing the woman's conditioned reflex shrinking back, Qian Yuan nodded and waved his hand to ask Yang Wen and others to go out.

The room was in silence. The two sisters didn't know who each other was, what they wanted to do, and they didn't know what they should do.

After a long silence, Qian Yuan asked softly: "Where is the man you saved?"

Wang Lushu hurried inside and did not dare to say anything. Wang Cuiqiao replied in a low voice: "Master, you have driven it away."

"Who is sick?"

"yes."

"Don't know?"

“Don’t know.”

It seemed that it was not for his sisters. Wang Cuiqiao became curious and looked up slightly. He looked at him secretly. The man was sitting upright on the round stool, and the dark candlelight highlighted his clear face.

"Do you know where he is?"

"have no idea."

"Can you hear the sound?"

"I can't hear it."

At this time, Qian Yuan keenly discovered that Wang Lushu, who was huddling in the innermost, opened her lips slightly, and pointed with a smile, "You said."

"No...I don't know..."

The charming woman with a crying voice was pitiful, which made people feel pity, but Qian Yuan laughed and pointed outside the door, "Do you want someone else to ask?"

The brothel women have always known how to observe their words and expressions. Both sisters heard the coldness mixed with laughter. Wang Lushu immediately blurted out, "It seems that he is from Huizhou when he hears the accent."

"It should be." Wang Cuiqiao added carefully: "Our sisters have seen many Huizhou giants in Qinhuai before."

Nowadays, Huizhou merchants are famous all over the world. It is common for Huizhou people to spend a lot of money on the Qinhuai River.

Qian Yuan nodded, his face became more gloomy, and he was silent for a while before he asked, "Is that man a monk?"

"No... by the way, the bun is a little loose, hey, it's really possible!"

There was another long silence, and Qian Yuan stared at Wang Cuiqiao without turning his eyes, sighing in his heart that he was still one step late.

After hearing the name Wang Cuiqiao, Qian Yuan went out to check it out, but the man had long disappeared.

With a Huizhou accent and loose hair, it may be a monk. With the name Wang Cuiqiao... Qian Yuan is 80% sure, and that man should be Xu Hai, who later came from "General Tianchapinghai".

There is no need to say much about Xu Hai. At most, there are tens of thousands of Japanese pirates under this person, and they have been eliminated in the system and probably have military-like Japanese pirates.

Killing people and plundering land is common. The most important thing is that Xu Hai has been operating in Susong for a long time, and also regards Songjiang as a base.

In fact, most of the current Japanese pirates are from maritime businessmen and their combat power is not very strong. Lu Tong and Yu Dayou have frequently heard of victory. The Ming army was beaten so badly on the coast of Zhejiang, which is largely because they are too cowardly.

The key to improving the combat power of Japanese pirates is Xu Hai. He cooperated with the Japanese to introduce a large number of wandering warriors into the mainland, taking these Japanese as pioneers, almost no one could control them before Qi Jiguang was born.

Why did the later Governor Hu Zongxian, the Southeast Governor, spend so much energy, counter-espionage, and persuade surrender, and finally take the blame for killing prisoners?

In the final analysis, it can't be beaten!

The war against Japanese pirates in the southeast lasted for ten years. Wang Zhi was the nominal leader of the Japanese pirates, but in fact, Xu Hai was probably the one who caused the most damage.

Qian Yuan gritted his teeth secretly. If he could be captured or killed today, the situation in the southeast's anti-Japanese war in the future would probably not be as bad as in history.

After being stared at by someone for a long time, Wang Cuiqiao gradually became uneasy. In fact, this kind of treatment was common for many years before her, but she did not see the greed and desire that were common in the eyes of this man today...

Qian Yuan also discovered the other party's uneasiness. Wang Cuiqiao in history was legendary. It is said that she committed suicide by jumping into the sea after Xu Hai's death. There were several novels in the late Ming Dynasty, and the storybooks were used as prototypes, and even spread to Vietnam, which was the famous "Biography of Jin Yunqiao".

And the sisters rescued Xu Hai is likely to be the starting point between Wang Cuiqiao and Xu Hai.

"Don't worry, it has nothing to do with you." Qian Yuan smiled gently. Since he didn't catch Xu Hai, there was naturally no need to offend Wang Cuiqiao, who would probably become Xu Hai's wife in the future.

Besides, Qian Yuan, who is familiar with history, knows that in the future, Wang Cuiqiao played a significant role. If she killed her today, Hu Zongxian’s counter-espionage plan will have nowhere to be used in the future!

But Qian Yuan's gentle smile did not relieve the other party's nervousness. The two sisters couldn't help but beat Qian Yuan's white teeth.

"I believe you won't tell Teacher Shen about what happened tonight?"

“No…no…no…no.”

"That's good." Qian Yuan stood up, bowed slightly gently, and turned around and left the house.

The snow outside had stopped. Qian Yuan let out a long sigh, and white mist filled him, just like his current mood.

"Young Master, so fast!"

Qian Yuan waved to Yang Wen, pointing at Zhang San with a lewd look on his face, "Deduct him a month's monthly money."

"good!"

"No!"

A low but shrill cry echoed in the alley, and Qian Yuan, who was stepping on the snow, comforted himself so much in his heart.

It's just a matter of luck...
