A knife in love

Chapter 2965

When Li Qiufeng said this, he paused for a while, his expression was quite dignified, and he looked thoughtful.He thought for a moment, and then continued: "After we left Dong'an City, the big ship sailed on the sea and had nothing to do. I often chatted with Ding Guan and the boss of the ship. Ding Guan once told me that the people of Fusang Kingdom are ignorant, and most of them I don't know how to read, but the nobles of Fusang have always admired the treasures and treasures of the Central Plains. They not only spent a lot of money to buy calligraphy, painting and jewelry from the Celestial Dynasty, but also took pride in being able to speak and write Chinese characters. Many people can speak Chinese, and their handwriting is extremely correct. This young man can speak Chinese, so his background must be extraordinary, but I didn’t expect that he would have a lot of rift with the old man in gray, and he seemed to hate the old man to the bone. Since we It can be seen that the young man has a lot of background, and the gray-clothed old man will not fail to see it. It is not true that he left us with an old man and two strange guests, but it is true that he went back and dispatched people to keep an eye on us and the young man. Someone guessed right, there must be someone following us right now."

Murong Danyan was shocked when he heard the words, and was about to turn his head to look around when Li Qiufeng whispered: "Be careful! If you want to see the situation around you, you have to act as if nothing happened, don't panic too much. If they know us I have already noticed it, and I don’t know what ghost ideas these guys will come up with to deal with us.”

When Li Qiufeng said this, he thought for a while, and then continued: "Girl, you don't have to worry too much. Whether it's the Matsuda family, or the merchants and bandits who come to the island to do business, we have nothing to do with us. They will not deliberately deal with us. Even if someone is malicious towards us, it will only be within an hour or two. In such a hurry, they want to entrap us, and I am afraid it will be too late. It is almost dusk, and we pretend to be innocent It’s a matter of turning around on the island for a while before returning to the pier. The pier is not as prosperous as the island, and it is not easy to hide. If someone is watching, they would not dare to follow us to the pier easily.”

After hearing Li Qiufeng's words, Murong Danyan hesitated in his heart.She knew that Li Qiufeng was thoughtful and resourceful, since he said that someone was watching, it was not a lie, but when she thought of the appearance of the old man in gray and the two strangers, one old and one young, she felt uneasy and secretly I think the martial arts of those two weirdos are enough to fight against Brother Li and me.If the old man in gray wants to deal with us, he doesn't have to let us go first, and then send someone to follow him secretly.Unless he is determined to play tricks on the cat and the mouse, deliberately teasing Brother Li and me.But with the demeanor of the gray-clothed old man, when making a decisive decision, he would never hesitate at all, and he would never play these little tricks at all.

When Murong Danyan was thinking, he glanced around from the corner of his eyes from time to time.At this time, it was dark, and the houses and shops on both sides of the street were illuminated from the windows, and lanterns were lit in front of the doors of taverns, tea shops, and cloth pawnshops.There were people coming and going on the street, besides businessmen with big bellies and warriors with gloomy expressions, from time to time there were women in gorgeous clothes laughing and passing by Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan.Murong Danyan has lived in a beautiful place in the south of the Yangtze River for a long time. Although Murong Qiushui and his wife dote on her very much, they are very strict in terms of etiquette. On weekdays, she is only allowed to study and practice martial arts in Murong Villa, and she is not allowed to leave Murong Villa easily.Even if she had to go out of the manor sometimes, either Madam Murong would bring her by her side, or there would be many maids and servants by her side.And before the night falls, she has to return to Murong Villa, otherwise she will be severely punished.

At the beginning, Murong Danyan was dissatisfied, and once complained to Murong Danqing about this matter.Murong Danqing said to her, according to the rules of etiquette, women all over the world must abide by women's morality and pay attention to three obediences and four virtues, not to mention the eldest daughter of a rich family like Murong Danyan, even the women of ordinary people rarely go out on weekdays.In the evening, women are not allowed to go out. If a woman walks on the street at night, she will be ridiculed. The neighbors will point and point behind her back. If the night watchman sees it, she may be caught. Yamen, torture and interrogate.

When Murong Danyan heard Murong Danqing's words, he was not convinced, and threatened why men can wander around, but women are subject to many constraints?Murong Danqing said with a smile, you have been messing around in Murong Villa all day, and you don't know what's going on in the city, but it's not unusual.In fact, women are not the only ones who are restrained, and men are not allowed to act rashly.Since Qin Shihuang ruled the world, except for the Song Dynasty, all other dynasties have had curfews, and our Ming Dynasty is no exception.What's more, Emperor Taizu was born in a reckless family and took over the world as a monk in black clothes. He was afraid that someone would imitate his appearance and plot evil, so the curfew time was brought forward by another hour.In this way, after it got dark, not only were there no women walking on the road, even the shadows of men could not be seen.Otherwise, if the tolerance police who watch the night see him, they will be arrested and tortured in the yamen immediately.Falling into the hands of wolves and tigers, they can only survive or die.

Murong Danyan didn't take it seriously after hearing what Murong Danqing said, and said in his mouth, since the imperial court has a curfew, why do father and elder brother often go out at night?Heroes in the Jianghu, as well as those underworld figures, have never heard of anyone who is afraid to go out at night.After hearing this, Murong Danqing laughed loudly, shook his head again and again, making fun of Murong Danyan's words as too childish.He said to Murong Danyan that the curfew of the imperial court was strict, and ordinary people naturally did not dare to violate the laws and regulations.However, people in the Jianghu are masters of martial arts, as long as they practice light kung fu for a few days, most of them can rise to the top. The ordinary police officers may not even see the shadows of these people in the Jianghu, and they have disappeared without a trace.There are only 63 provinces in the south, seven and north of the Ming Dynasty, and only the capital is important. Jinyiwei and Dongchang fanzi are all over the city. People in the rivers and lakes dare not act arrogantly, and no one dares to violate the curfew. Come, go as you want, without any scruples at all.

Later, Murong Danyan sneaked out of Murong Villa and wandered around in the rivers and lakes, only then did he know what Murong Danqing said was true.During the daytime, women were rarely seen in the city. Before it was dark, pedestrians gradually became rare. By more than half an hour before the curfew, the streets were almost empty.Murong Danyan walked through many large and small cities, but after dark they all looked normal, the streets were deserted and there was hardly a single person to be seen.Unexpectedly, on this isolated overseas island, even though dusk was approaching, the streets would be busier than during the day.Not only the men chatted with friends and talked and laughed loudly without any scruples, but also many women dressed up in fancy dress swaggered past in the street, which was beyond Murong Danyan's expectation.Seeing the crowds of people around, she thought to herself that Brother Li said that the old man in gray had sent someone to spy on him. Of course it was not a lie. Know where the bad guys who are watching us are hiding.
