Jiang Yousi looked at the Yanyin in Taobuchang's hand, remained silent for a while, and then took it.

Although he knew it was a fake, the problem was that even Jiang Yousi couldn't see the trace of forgery.

Tao Buhuan said: "Don't worry, I have imitated the handwriting and seal on it as if it were fake. Even if the history of salt affairs came to verify it, I would not even frown."

Jiang Youbi looked at Tao Buchang, with a calm and confident look on his face.

After only two days of contact, she realized that the rumored leader of the new water-type assassin was not in vain——

Tao Buchang has high martial arts, can change appearance, can change voice, knows medicine, knows Feng Shui, and now she can imitate... It seems that there is really nothing she can't do.

wrong--

Tao Buhuan's only weakness should be that she doesn't like reading, and she doesn't understand poetry.

She knew that Tao Buhuan was very intelligent since she was a child, but if it hadn't been for the special training of Maigulou, Tao Buhuan would not be as "multi-talented" as she is now.

Maigulou is the most mysterious place in the world besides the imperial palace. It is really rare that an assassin organization can be so blatant under the governance of the imperial court, but the imperial court has nothing to do with it.

Now that Yan Yin was in his hands, Jiang Yousi didn't rush back to Xu's mansion, but led Tao Buchang to the Yamen of Yuezhou Prefecture for a stroll.

For the first time, Tao Buhuan didn't have to pretend to be someone else, and followed Jiang Youpan to visit the state capital swaggeringly.

Seeing the humble appearance of the yamen servant at the door after seeing Jiang Youpan's official badge, Tao Buhuan couldn't help but chuckled all the way to the back hall and waited for Li Wenxuan, the state capital, to find time to meet Jiang Youpan.

"Don't you want to disturb the local state capital? Why come here instead of going back to Xu Sanniang to continue buying salt?"

Tao Buhuan looked at the layout of the state government office. On the walls were several pictures of heroic officials. Her eyes suddenly froze, and stopped in front of a portrait with a dark face and wearing armor.

Jiang Yousi followed her gaze and looked at the painting. Tao Huanbei, the Great General of Zhenbei, was once a well-known military general.

But nowadays, the Holy Majesty puts more emphasis on literature than martial arts. In the battle of Youzhou, the Zhenbei Army was completely annihilated. After the Holy Majesty was crowned, he no longer mentioned Tao Huanbei and the Zhenbei Army. Now the prefect of Youzhou guarding Youzhou is also a civil servant.

Li Wenxuan, the capital of Yuezhou, hung Tao Huanbei's portrait here, probably because of a cult of personality, but it inadvertently aroused the memory of Tao Buhuan, the widow.

Jiang Youbi looked at her motionless back and said: "Since we came out of Xu Sanniang's residence, someone has been following us, this person is obviously a novice, so I deliberately slowed down to let him follow us.

But suddenly I have more salts on hand, even if you can imitate them lifelike, if you don’t come to the state capital, it’s hard to convince people that the salts are real. "

Tao did not change and sat down on one of the poplar chairs, "Didn't you say that you don't want to directly involve the state capital, now you are not afraid to see the Li state capital directly?"

Jiang Youbi looked at her sitting posture and felt it was indecent. He walked over and stared at her upturned Erlang legs and forced her to straighten them with his eyes, and then said: "Every month, Li Wenxuan deploys defenses outside the city and carries out Inspection, he should not be in the mansion today." "You have no plans to spare." Tao Buhuan praised Jiang Yousi generously.

Jiang Yousi sat for a while longer, and said, "It's getting late, let's go to Xu Sanniang to buy salt."

Xu Mansion...

The fake "Xu Sanniang" didn't expect these two people to go and come back so soon. Originally, they said they would not see each other, but they heard that General You Si had brought enough salt this time.

Official salt cannot be sold without Yanyin. Now that the Salt Envoy is newly mourned, it is reasonable to say that the state government has not taken over so quickly and cannot give a new Yanyin. Where did Mr. Jiang come from, and why did he get Yanyin so quickly?After listening to the information reported by the person sent to follow up, the fake Xu Sanniang frowned.

Mr. Jiang went directly to the state capital to ask for Yanyin?Li Wenxuan, the capital of Yuezhou, is famous for being rigid in doing things according to the rules. What method did Mr. Jiang use to let this old rigidity let go?

Now that the other party had already brought a few salts to invite her to visit, the fake Xu Sanniang entered the backyard, stood in a secluded yard, stopped in front of the door, and raised her voice and asked, "Ma'am, those two people went and came back, and they said yes?" I have already got enough salt and want to buy salt."

A weak voice came from the house: "Go and find out the truth, it doesn't matter how much salt you sell, the important thing is to find out where the salt came from."

"But madam, do we have to be controlled by others again?"

"As a female salt merchant, when and where should we not be restrained by others? Since Mr. Jiang has a way, let's listen to his way before making a decision."

"Yes..." the fake Xu Sanniang said reluctantly.

Jiang Yousi was still waiting in front of the stage this time, but the sky was already dark and gray. Seeing the dim light on the stage, it was even darker, even if someone was hiding in the shadows, she would not be able to detect it.

"I always feel that this stage is a bit weird, but I can't tell exactly what's weird." Tao Buhuan leaned on the pillar with his arms folded, staring at the stage in the courtyard.

Jiang Yousi also glanced at the stage, the stage was indeed a few inches higher than the surrounding ground, no matter how much the lady of the Xu family liked opera, she would not have spent so much money to build such a large semi-open stage at home.

This time "Xu Sanniang" came soon, and she had already changed into a different outfit: "Mr. Jiang, I heard that you have prepared a salt guide?"

Jiang Yousi nodded, "Although Yanyin is ready, the money is not enough. I'll come tonight to make a deposit first, so that your fine salt won't be bought by others when I raise the money."

"Xu Sanniang" took the Yanyin, squinted her eyes and checked repeatedly.

Seeing her serious look, Jiang Youpan glanced at Tao Buhuan beside him, fearing that there would be marks on the salt that no layman would know.

But Tao Buchang was not nervous at all, and he still had the leisure to wink at Jiang Yousi, throwing a mischievous and ambiguous look.

"My lord, can you tell me where Yan Yin came from?" asked the fake Xu Sanniang.

Jiang Youpan rubbed his chin, wondering: "I'm really sorry, I can't reveal it, as long as you know it's true, you're either stealing or robbing.

Furthermore, since I dare to give you such an important thing as Yanyin, I can guarantee that it is true and reliable. "

"Since that's the case, I will accept the young master's deposit and salt, and set a date to pick up whatever goods the young master wants."

The fake Xu Sanniang turned around and took a piece of paper from the butler, on which the contents had already been written and marked.

"This is a document. You can pick up the goods when you raise enough silver. The fine salt is in a warehouse in the north of the city. Use this document to get it."

Jiang Yousi took it, and left without stopping.

After walking out of Xu's mansion, Tao Buhuan said vigilantly: "There is still a tail following."

Jiang Youpan was not surprised: "They want to know where the salt in my hand comes from, so they will send people to follow."

She lowered her voice and continued, "Come back quietly later, and check what mechanism is under the stage."

Tao Buhuan was surprised: "Under the stage? Is there a secret room?"

"The Xu Mansion has just been rebuilt, and the stage has been repaired strangely, and it is much higher than other places. I suspect that there is an extra space right now.

So I want you to sneak in while their attention is on me. "

"Who will protect you if you are in danger?" Tao Buhuan asked Jiang Youpan by the sleeve.

Jiang Youpan turned his head and looked at her hand that was pulling his sleeve. Xiao Tao always liked to pull her sleeve instead of her arm or hand.

"Xu Sanniang will not blatantly kill me in Yuezhou City. I have been to the state capital, and I have shown my face everywhere. She will not do it lightly until she finds out my relationship with Li Wenxuan."

Jiang Youpan knew that Tao Buhuan was worried about her, so he pulled her hand away to comfort her, "I'll go straight back to the official post later, the official post is only a few steps away from here, and I'll be fine. Besides, send someone to track down Wu Zuo It's time for Xiao Zhu's messenger to deliver the news."

Tao Buhuan hesitated for a moment, then compromised and said: "Since you have considered everything thoroughly, I will listen to your nightly visit to Xu's mansion to see the secrets hidden under the stage."

The two found an alley and parted ways. The "tail" probably thought that Jiang Youpan was the important role, so he followed Jiang Youpan and continued to walk.

Tao went up to the high roof without changing, and was condescending, but saw that the city of Yuezhou was empty, and everyone had already returned to the house early to light a fire, cook and prepare to rest.

She took out a silk scarf to cover her face, rearranged her bun, saw that Jiang Youpan had walked from one end of the alley to the other, and reluctantly turned her head back to Xu's mansion.

Jiang Youpan remembered that passing through this alley was the official post, and the bamboo badge on his waist was shaking with faster and faster footsteps. Jiang Youpan was afraid that he would lose the bamboo badge again, so he just covered it with his hand and continued. walk.

She had an ominous premonition, the tail behind her was getting closer and closer, this was not a good omen.

The alley is long and narrow, but the gate of the official post with lanterns can already be seen.

Jiang Youpan raised her front swing and changed from walking to running, but when she just walked out of the alley and looked back, her eyes suddenly went dark, and she was wrapped in a sack...
