Dayong Nu sentenced to death

The surprise came too suddenly.

So much so that Su Rao was stunned for a moment, "Where did the short dagger come from?"

"Forehead……"

Xun Zeli choked, blinked his eyelashes a little guilty, his bruised eyes looked innocent and miserable, "I found out that the dagger has nothing to do with the iron shop in the capital."

Su Rao: "..."

I found this in half a day!
The veins on her forehead twitched, but anyone with eyes could tell that she was in a bad mood, Su Rao raised her hand...

Xun Zeli jumped away like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and subconsciously raised his hand to cover his face: "What are you doing?"

Su Rao froze her hands in the air, looked at his movements in astonishment, and said dumbly: "Headache..."

Who expected such a big reaction from him.

Everyone behind them covered their mouths and snickered. Xun Zeli felt that this action was funny. He immediately coughed lightly and stood up straight. "I didn't find out the source, but a shopkeeper reminded me."

"This short dagger is more exquisite than ordinary iron tools, and requires extremely advanced forging techniques. If you can't find it in the city, you should look for it in Haiyan Qinghe."

"What is Haiyan Qinghe?"

Su Rao looked straight.

Xun Zeli waited for a long time for this sentence, and then realized that she is not from Shengjing, and it is reasonable not to know.

Before he had time to explain, Gu Cheng whispered, "To put it simply, it's a black market."

"However, it is a little different from the usual black market."

"for example?"

Su Rao raised her feet and entered the house, Gu Cheng and the others followed in one go, each found a place to sit down, and said slowly: "It is set up beside the water canal outside the Golden Light Gate, with boats as the medium, five habitually connected, two more Open, rest at five o'clock, and there are princes, rich gentry, and everyone from all walks of life."

"It sells living people, jewelry, imperial gifts, rare and antiques from all over the world, poisons and spices, or other things. There are no taboos."

"Is this kind of business allowed by the imperial court?"

Su Rao showed surprise on her face.

If it is said that the state capital is placed at the bottom, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the officials turn a blind eye, maybe they have to take a share of it.

But this is in Shengjing City.

At the foot of the god.

This kind of business without rules is undoubtedly hanging a knife on the Golden Palace, which will cause great turmoil and hidden dangers.

"What can you do if you don't allow it?"

Xun Zeli shrugged helplessly and said, "In truth, this Haiyan Qinghe has survived for as long as the four surnames and eight clans. It takes both black and white, and has gathered countless top experts to escort it."

"The previous generations of emperors really wanted to eradicate it. They sent heavy troops to encircle and suppress it many times, causing heavy casualties. However, they disappeared for a while, and the ship building will reopen."

"And it's even bigger."

"When the conflict with the imperial court was the most intense, Haiyan Heqing's masters went straight into the palace and almost killed the king. Since then, all dynasties have left unwritten rules that the two sides will not invade each other."

The man on the throne is afraid of the ubiquitous Jianghu people.

And the people of the rivers and lakes are also afraid of thousands of troops, arrows and spears.

They have coexisted in such a strange way for nearly a hundred years...

Most of the teenagers present had wandered around inside, and they were all very excited when they mentioned it.

Seeing their appearance, Su Rao pondered for a moment and said: "Then let's go tonight."

"I'll go as well."

"I'll go as well."

After Gu Cheng and Xun Zeli finished speaking in unison, they stared at each other.

Gu Chengdao: "You stare at this face, you don't have to worry about scaring people."

"It's good to wear a mask. Anyway, few people who enter Haiyan Qinghe will show their true colors."

Xun Zeli didn't take it seriously, and glanced at him: "It's you, if your brother knows where you go again, he will definitely break your leg when he returns home."

"Don't worry about it."

The two of them were not convinced by each other, since they came here, the Deputy Envoy of the Imperial City Department, and the superiors and subordinates were basically useless.

After a long time, the relationship between everyone inexplicably eased down.

They looked at Su Rao at the same time.

As if waiting for her decision.

Xun Zeli said: "If you don't let me go, I will go by myself."

Since he took over the dagger matter, he wouldn't let it go in such a muddle-headed manner.

"The city gates will be closed at night and will not open until the next morning."

Su Rao looked at the two of them, "Can you explain to your family if you don't return all night?"

"Drinking in Jingshui Building in the past, it was common for them to be drunk for three or four days in a row. They have long been used to it."

Xun Zeli took it lightly.

Gu Cheng replied: "I'm on duty tonight, wherever your lord is, I'll be there."

It is impossible for so many people to stay in Banyue Xiaozhu.

So schedule shifts.

The three of Xiao and San expressed their desire to go with them to increase their knowledge.

Apart from them, Shen Yuan also wanted to go, but Xun Zeli laughed as soon as he said that, "You'd better not cause trouble, in case of bumping into each other, Mrs. Shen will not faint from fright."

Shen Yuan subconsciously opened his mouth to tell him apart, after careful consideration, he rested his thoughts.

He is different from Xun Zeli and others.

His father is a general of hussars, but his mother comes from a scholarly family, and the two have always had quite different views on his career in literature and military.

My mother thought that military generals lived with their heads hanging on their trouser belts, and one in the family was enough, and she didn't want him to take risks.

And my father thinks that practicing martial arts to serve the country, defending the territory and expanding the country can show the true qualities of a man.

Neither of them would budge.

In the end, after negotiation, he was sent to the Imperial City Secretary who was in charge of idle positions. Dad planned to use this to hone him for two years, and then find an excuse to transfer him to the Ministry of War or the army.

This is what he agreed to.

It’s just that the last time I asked to accompany the son on a tour to the south to hide it from A’Niang. After going there for more than half a year, A’Niang’s eyes were swollen from crying after he came back. If I go again this time...

Going back home can't avoid trouble.

In the end, the matter was settled like this. Su Rao took Gu Cheng and Xun Zeli to investigate together, and Xiao San, Lao Hei and Xiao Qing joined in the fun.

To be unobtrusive.

After being on duty, Su Rao and the others changed their appearances and slipped out of the city amidst the crowd. It was still early in the day and Haiyan Qinghe hadn't opened yet.

There were a few tea stalls and noodle shops beside the canal, and a lot of people gathered here and there, either wearing veiled hats, or wearing cloaks and masks, each of them covering themselves tightly.

Of course, there are still some descriptions that are not modified.

According to Xun Zeli's words, these people, like Xiao San and the others, are here to go through the motions and see something new.

"The things that are traded in Haiyan Qinghe River are neither where they come from nor where they go, but it is a good place to sell stolen goods. I heard that they have sold royal family funerary objects before."

"There is also the golden crown of the Lijiang Emperor."

Gu Cheng and Xun Zeli explained the situation here to Su Rao one by one. They have been in Shengjing for a long time, and they know many secrets.

Su Rao wore a veiled hat and a half mask, listening quietly, showing no emotion.

On the contrary, Xiao San and the three of them were excited and exclaimed again and again...

In the anticipation of all, the thick ink was dyed through the haze, and the surrounding fields were silent, and soon it was the time of the day, and everyone got up one after another, and walked to the boat moored on the water bank not far away, with the lanterns lit!
