Li Erlu was going to Beijing to catch the exam. According to him, he had to arrive in Chang'an one year in advance to go to Beijing to catch the exam. Of course, the sooner the better if conditions permit.There is nothing else to go there, just to gain fame.

"Write poems in Chang'an City, and then be sung, then the examiners will know that you are such a character, and you can get good grades in the exam." Li Erlu said firmly.

Haitang doesn't understand poetry and books, she has only read military books, so she has nothing to say except nodding her head.

The journey down was smooth. Although Li Erlu was a scholar, his legs and feet were quite nimble. It took the two of them three months to reach Tiandu Town outside Chang'an City in a rickety ox cart.The residents of Tiandu Town all know Haitang. In order not to be exposed, she forcibly persuaded Li Erlu to enter the city as soon as possible. Hurrying slowly can be counted as entering Chang'an City at the Guancheng Gate.

The two found an inn at random and complained that Chang'an City was no better than Yangzhou City, and the curfew was really too much for someone like Haitang who was used to living a free life in Yangzhou.What's more, he was accompanied by a nerd.

Listen, he is reciting poems in the room again, even Haitang who lives next door can hear it.

Not long after, a dispute broke out in the next room. It seemed that the person living next to Li Erlu's room couldn't bear him reciting poems, so he went to the door and scolded him. This kid was begging for mercy.

Haitang decided to pretend to be asleep, so she didn't want to help him, because she was also annoyed by Li Erlu who stayed up late at night reciting poems to fight against him.

She began to wonder if she followed the wrong partner, but he did let the eagle go in the middle of the night.

The eagle was released in the middle of the night... She suddenly remembered something, pushed open the door and rushed to the next room. Li Erlu had already fallen to the ground, and his nose was bleeding out.Haitang hurriedly helped him up, "Hey, what's wrong with you, did you become like this without looking at you?"

"Ah! A vulgar person, how can you understand romance!" He was almost crying, and Haitang wiped his nosebleed, and then he got up with teary eyes, and sighed: "If you can talk and laugh with Hongru, it is life." Good news. Communicating with such a white man is like playing the piano against a cow!"

Haitang hurriedly covered his mouth: "Stop talking! Besides, others will come and beat you!"

He dragged Haitang and babbled a lot, but hurriedly checked out and left the next day.The two changed to an inn, where many scholars lived.This is good, every day from early morning to late night, a group of well-educated guys are reading poems, Haitang wants to cry, but she sits on the eaves and stares at Li Erlu's room every day, hoping that he will show something soon.

However, time passed quickly, and from summer to early autumn, Li Erlu not only didn't show his flaws, but also wrote a lot of poems, which became popular in Chang'an City for a period of time, and gradually showed his head.

Haitang thinks this is not acceptable.

Just when she decided to change the way, she saw a man who looked like a scholar entered Li Erlu's room.It was already the middle of the night, and it stands to reason that this group of nerds should be drinking and making a fuss, and those who were not making a fuss should have gone to bed long ago, so why did they come to his room?

Moreover, this scholar, with a burly figure and no bookishness, looks more like a street hooligan.

Haitang tiptoed and hid under the door, eavesdropping through the wall.

"...I don't know... how..."

Hearing it intermittently, Haitang's heart jumped into her throat.

"Just fuck that bitch?"

"Keep your voice down!"

The scholar who went in was really not a scholar, Haitang had an intuition that this was a discussion about becoming a certain woman, and for some reason she felt that this woman was definitely not her, because she had seen it before as a martial arts scholar—even though she did not use her arrogance that day. The martial arts of blood heart method, but to deal with a few minions who accompany him in acting, the stick method learned secretly is enough.

This Li Erlu really has a problem.

On the second day, a senior official who was said to be highly respected came to the inn—he did not wear an official uniform, but he was accompanied by three servants and the servants at the door, which already showed that he was an extraordinary person.He stepped into the inn and ordered Li Erlu to meet him.First, he made poems and fuss, seemed very satisfied with Li Erlu's talent, rewarded him with a sachet, and then left.

Seeing the senior official leaving, Haitang walked up to Li Erlu, smiled and said, "Brother, what kind of treasure is this, open your eyes to my sister?"

Li Erlu is very precious, but he refuses to show her.

Another day later, the students who were jealous of Li Erlu came to visit and dragged Li Erlu who had just got up from the bed to drink flower wine.Haitang took the opportunity to enter his room, searched for a long time and finally found the sachet, opened it but it was empty, only saw many burnt marks on the ground.When Haitang thought that this person really had a problem, the door of his own room next door was knocked frantically. Haitang had heard that thick voice before, it was the voice of the rogue scholar that night.

She hid in Li Erlu's room, not daring to speak out.

I only heard the door of my room being pushed open, and then there was a noise of searching, but the shopkeeper didn't care at all.

She felt terrified.If Li Erlu didn't go out to drink today, then he should have fought them next door right now.Of course she has a chance of winning, the premise is that she can reveal her identity as a disciple of Tiance Mansion.

Haitang tidied up the place she turned over, but suddenly found something in the clothes.She reached out and touched it, and it was a jade pendant.

"Xuan" is engraved on the front and "Er Lu" is engraved on the back.

Like a ghost, she put it in her arms and went out through the window.

Feeling very scared, her heart was beating fast, and the moment Haitang went out through the window, she already knew that she shouldn't have touched that jade pendant.

Who dares to engrave a jade pendant with the character "Xuan"?That is the symbol of Yinyuanhui!

She was determined to wander the streets, but the more she walked, the colder her hands became.I didn't expect that the mansion didn't make a joke for her, but actually sent her a mission.She chased the right person, and found someone from Yinyuanhui, and according to the ranking, this person has a lot of background.I don't know why he would relax his vigilance and put such an important token in the pile of clothes at will, but what is certain is that at least today's wine, he drank it right and well, it was like God helping her.

It's the fire season in July, and those summer things brought here are no longer suitable.Haitang was a little shivering passively as she walked on the street, but she didn't want to go back and add clothes.At this moment, she saw a person.

This is an old man, and it is not appropriate to say that he is an old man. He looks about 40 years old, and he should be an uncle according to his age.

In fact, there is nothing unusual about this person, his hair is wrapped in an ordinary towel, and he is wearing a straight train in the color of a warehouse. Although he is splashing water in front of an inn to clean the way, the aura from his body is always extraordinary, not like a business people.

Most importantly, she recognized the jade pendant on this man's body. She had seen this symbol more than once, even on her gun.

——It’s from Hidden Sword Villa.

Haitang was startled.

How could I also meet people from Hidden Sword Villa here...

It's not that I'm running away from anything, it's just that when I mention Hidden Sword Villa, I think of Ye Ying—the person she was ashamed of.She clearly made an appointment to see the summer lotus together, and she clearly promised to enjoy the snow on the broken bridge together, but in the end she broke her promise, and she didn't write a single letter to him for so long.

She has an official job, although this official job sounds unreliable at all, it's all because of her blindness--and she hits it.

Maybe tell Ye Ying about this matter, he can't believe it, who can believe normal people?He disappeared for more than half a year without any reason, and there was no news at all. It turned out to be to track down a clue of Yinyuanhui that sounded unreliable. Who would believe it?Even she herself felt a little ridiculous.

Looking at the jade pendant in her hand, she turned and left.

——When the senior official reported his family name, Haitang memorized his first and last name.His surname is Huang, his single name is Wu, and his courtesy name is Chongwen.Judging from the tone of the scholars, he is quite a senior official, and he should be very easy to find in Chang'an City.

In the middle of the night, he went back to the inn through the window to pick up "Jian Luoying" and packed his luggage. He only put the rent for these days, and Haitang left without saying goodbye.

Of course she didn't leave. At this moment, she was pushing the corpse of a peasant woman who was bought, squatting at the back door of Huang Wu's mansion, crying loudly.

Nothing else, she still has the ability to put on a show.Seeing the tattered clothes and her hair coiled up like a woman, she felt that she still had confidence.

I only heard her crying sadly, the tears were not unaffected, and she got a few drops of water on her cheeks and cried.The voice was not loud but it had the imposing manner of Meng Jiangnv crying over the Great Wall, her breath was so long that others would feel breathless when they heard it.

"Mom—"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"

"Hey, who's crying here?"

The back door was pushed open, and two servants came out, one with a big belly and one tall and thin.With a stick in his hand, the big belly sticks to the tall and thin man respectfully.

Haitang grabbed the tall and thin man's leg, "My mother died, and my husband left me. There is also a three-year-old son and a ten-year-old brother at home... The woman is illiterate, and the family is really poor. , I can only sell myself to bury my mother. Please be kind to the official, take me in as a handyman, I can do anything, I can do anything!"

Just as the fat man was about to kick her away, the tall and thin man suddenly squatted down and pinched her face for a closer look, then smiled, "What's your name?"

Haitang rolled her eyes, she seemed to be shy, "Ms. Ye, a commoner's woman, her maiden name is Xiaoxiao."

She was almost disgusted by the words.

"That's right, I forgot your name. From today onwards, you're the best, do you understand?"

Hey, is this over?

Haitang blinked, and the tall and thin man took out a silver coin and threw it in front of her, "Take it to bury your mother. Fuquan, follow her, lest she run away."

The fat man yelled "De Ling", he pressed Haitang and took "Mother's" "corpse" to the coffin shop to buy a coffin.Haitang asked the peasant woman to take the money and leave through the back door, carrying the empty coffin to the cemetery and burying it in the cemetery.

It's just that she never expected that she would pass by the inn in Hidden Sword Villa on the way back.

What's more, he didn't expect that the person riding a horse at the door turned out to be so familiar.

Just passing by, before she could look back, she was pushed forward by the fat man. After all, she didn't see clearly who it was.

"Master, that woman has thrown herself into a trap."

"Oh? That's right. Then, that scholar..."

"It has been properly disposed of, and his poems have to be left to Lord Yan to listen to."
