"Old man, what did you say?"

Yu Li suspected that he had heard it wrong.

The old man turned around and said, "I said, we're here."

Yu Li was startled by his sudden smile, and somehow he felt a little creepy.

"Old man, where is your home?"

"Right behind you."

Yu Li turned around, "Behind? Have we passed it, or——"

Before he could finish his words, the old man knocked him unconscious with a chop from his hand.

The old man changed his decadent and weak appearance, straightened his back, and revealed a sharp murderous look, "Young man, don't drink Meng Po soup on the road to the underworld. Remember how you died, and don't be a good person in your next life."

The old man carried the unconscious Yu Li on his shoulders and jumped onto the roof with his light Kung Fu skills.

When Meng Qianqian and Lu Yuan tracked them down here, there was no trace of the two people.

Lu Yuan observed the thickness of the snow on the footprints and said, "We have been walking for at least 15 minutes. The other party has light skills. You should prepare for the worst. Even if we find Yu Li, he may have been ambushed."

-

Wanhua Tower.

There was toasting, singing and dancing in the lobby.

In a magnificent room on the second floor, the new courtesan was dressing up.

There were five basins of top-quality silver charcoal burning behind her, so even if it was snowing heavily outside, she only needed to wear her golden feather clothes as thin as a cicada's wing.

Suddenly, old man Qiao Zhuangcheng's secret guard carried Yu Li into her room.

A cold wind mixed with snow blew in, causing her brows to frown.

Her creamy skin had suddenly turned a crimson color due to the freezing cold, making her look even more beautiful and graceful, like the beauty of Xi Shi.

"Do you want to freeze me to death?"

The Oiran said dissatisfiedly.

Even her voice was gentle and tender, with a natural charm. An ordinary man would probably be stunned if he heard it.

The secret guard said: "The person has been brought here. You know what to do next."

The courtesan put on an earring in front of the bronze mirror, marveling at her own angelic beauty while saying with disdain, "I am the courtesan, and you asked me to serve a stinky man who I don't know who he is, without even asking me if I am happy or not."

The secret guard asked, "Do you want to disobey orders?"

"I didn't say that."

The courtesan rolled her eyes, twisted her waist like a water snake, and walked to the bed with graceful steps, "I just... yo."

She saw Yu Li's face clearly, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, he is such a handsome man."

The secret guard said: "Remember, make him die."

The courtesan said with seductive eyes: "You want to die of ecstasy?"

The secret guard took out a secret letter from his bosom: "It would be better if I died on you. This is the deployment map of the capital's troops. Remember to put it on him."

The courtesan sighed: "Alas, I haven't had enough of being an courtesan yet."

The dark guard said coldly: "I'm reminding you one last time, don't mess it up."

The courtesan turned around and looked at the secret guard with a smile.

Secret Guard: "What are you looking at me for?"

The courtesan smiled charmingly: "Why don't you leave? Do you want to watch a live sex show here, or do you want to have some fun together?"

The secret guard walked away coldly.

The courtesan looked at Yu Li with a smile, and raised his chin with her fingertips: "You are really born with a good-looking body, much more pleasing to the eye than those stinky men out there. I really don't want to let you die."

As the courtesan spoke, she leaned forward, approached Yu Li, and sniffed the scent of Yu Li carefully: "Such a clean smell..."

The courtesan pulled off Yu Li's belt and took off her clothes piece by piece.

……

"cousin!"

Meng Qianqian kicked the door open.

"what--"

"Where did this crazy woman come from? You're ruining my good deeds!"

“Wrong one.”

Meng Qianqian decisively left the room and closed the door for the two of them.

She and Lu Yuan searched separately. This was the last courtesan in Wanhua Tower. Could it be that her cousin was in Yingchun Tower across the street?

"Uh……"

Just when Meng Qianqian was about to go to Yingchun Tower, she suddenly heard a very faint voice.

"It's my cousin!"

"Where did the sound come from?"

Meng Qianqian looked around and finally found her disheveled cousin in a small tea room.

My cousin was described as lying on the ground in a mess, dazed, as if he had just woken up but not fully awake.

Next to my cousin, there sat a handsome young man with red lips and white teeth.

Meng Qianqian walked in and took a look, and was stunned for a moment: "Xiao Ru?"

Lin Xiaoru, who was dressed as a man, said hesitantly, "Sister Meng."

Meng Qianqian was extremely shocked and asked: "Why are you here?"

Lin Xiaoru said: "Oh, I can't afford to have tea, so I can only sit in the small tea room."

Meng Qianqian squatted down and pinched Yu Li's pulse: "I mean... why did you come to Wanhua Tower wearing your brother's clothes? And why is my cousin... with you?"

Lin Xiaoru said, "Oh, I went to the Imperial College to pick up my brother, planning to stay with him at my grandparents' home for one night. On the way, I saw Yu Liyong pushing a cart of charcoal with an old man sitting on it. I felt something was wrong, so I followed him."

"Lu Yuan guessed it all right..."

Meng Qianqian took a breath and asked Lin Xiaoru, "Why do you feel something is wrong?"

Lin Xiaoru hit the nail on the head: "An old man, four baskets of charcoal, he can't push them."

Meng Qianqian: ...I couldn’t refute it.

When they found the charcoal cart, they found that the charcoal in the baskets had indeed been tampered with. Each basket had a layer of net with charcoal on top, and the inside was hollow.

Lin Xiaoru said, "I found that they entered Wanhua Tower from the backyard, so I changed into my brother's clothes and came in. Oh, I think I knocked someone out."

Meng Qianqian asked: "You are not hurt?"

Lin Xiaoru shook her head.

Meng Qianqian let out a long sigh.

Just now, when she passed by a side room, she indeed found a sleeping courtesan, but she didn't expect that she was knocked unconscious by Xiaoru.

This girl is too aggressive. She has no idea that Wanhua Tower is the territory of Prime Minister Xun and few of the courtesans there are ordinary women.

Meng Qianqian was just about to ask her if she was on guard against you, but in a blink of an eye, she saw Lin Xiaoru sitting there quietly drinking tea -

What a jade-faced little immortal! No wonder he was not on guard.

"Xiao Ru, thanks to you today, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. But next time, don't put yourself in danger. Your cousin is important, and you are important too."

Lin Xiaoru nodded twice.

Meng Qianqian carried Yu Li on her back and took Lin Xiaoru out of Wanhua Tower through the back door.

A study room as dark as ink.

The secret guard was tied up and sat on a chair.

Opposite him stood Madam Yan, who was watching Meng Qianqian leave.

The secret guard said, "Madam Yan, do you want to betray the lord? Why don't you stop them quickly? She has walked into the trap. Without Lu Yuan by her side, and with two burdens, it will be easy to kill her!"

Madam Yan said coldly: "I told you not to touch her."

The secret guard laughed coldly: "From the day she became an enemy of the Prime Minister's Mansion, she was destined to die! If you let her and Yu Li go today and let the lord know, you will die!"

"Then, don't let the lord know."

Madam Yan stabbed him in the heart with a knife.
