I am the sword fairy

Chapter 37 Transfer Deputy Envoy
Xiangyang.

Lin House.

Lin Hui, the deputy transfer envoy, frowned at the moment and looked at the information in his hand with an ugly expression.

This isn't the first time I've seen it.

Among the antique merchants he sent to Hanjiang to buy seals, one of them disappeared.

This information was sent by his confidant Li Qiu, saying that Zhao Bo had been missing for several days.

Based on the empty carriage found afterwards and the old horse who knew the way back, it was initially determined that after leaving the city with his confidants, he abandoned the carriage and fled all the way to Beiqi.

But Li Qiu did not think that Zhao Bo was absconding with the treasure, but that he might have encountered something unexpected.

Lin Hui also made this judgment.

Zhao Bo didn't dare!

Even though Lin Hui is based in Xiangyang, an important northern town, his roots are in the capital.

Unless Zhao Bo is insane, he will flee with his confidants regardless of the whole family in the capital after getting the treasure.

Besides, as a peripheral member of Lin Hui's family, Zhao Bo had no idea what the seal represented.

Li Qiu said in this information that he would go to the place agreed with Zhao Bo to see if there was any information left.

If anything happens, we will report it promptly.

But Lin Hui was a little anxious.

Because this secret letter was sent a few days ago, there has been no follow-up information so far.

Lin Hui knew that he was a confidant who had been selected as a scholar. He claimed to be versatile in both civil and military affairs, and he was very proud in his bones.

Loyalty is not a problem, but I like to make my own decisions in everything.

The biggest problem is that when something happens, I usually do it quietly first, and then surprise him after I succeed.

He has said this several times, but at the critical moment, he will revert to his old ways.

Especially this time, he had repeatedly reminded beforehand that once you find clues related to the seal, you must not act without authorization. You must report it to him and let him make a decision.

Because the seal thing is too important!

Even though he was the deputy transport envoy, he did not dare to neglect it at all.

Zhao Bo disappeared. It was most likely that he discovered something, or that he had already found that kind of seal, and then he alerted some force and was secretly killed!

In this case, Li Qiu should not act rashly, but should report the information he has to him...

"Damn it!"

Having such a powerful but willful henchman under his command is both lucky and irritating.

At this moment, there was a burst of fast footsteps outside, and then someone announced outside——

"Sir, a letter falcon from Hanjiang is coming with a secret message!"

Lin Huiteng stood up immediately and said energetically: "Bring it in quickly!"

After so many days, this is the first letter falcon to come from Hanjiang.

Then someone came in from outside holding a beautiful peregrine falcon.

Lin Hui couldn't wait and took it upon herself to untie the secret message from Peregrine Falcon's leg, waved his men away, and immediately opened it to read.

Just after reading a few words, his expression changed drastically.

Bang!
His eyes were blazing, and he punched the table in front of him with a loud bang.

A big hole was immediately punched out of the hard tabletop.

He suppressed his anger and continued reading. The more he read, the more angry he became. He simply used force and overturned the table in front of him, causing a loud bang in the room.

All the subordinates outside were frightened. As Lin Hui's confidants, they had never seen an adult so angry.

"A stinky girl with yellow hair... She's just too much of a bully!"

Lin Hui gritted his teeth and wanted to tear the letter in his hand into pieces.

He was full of expectations just now, thinking it was the information sent by Li Qiu, but when he opened it, he found that it was actually sent by the same Demon Slayer Division... Li Chaoen's old dog adopted daughter, the former orphan Xiao Qing of the Xiao family!
To be precise, it was the "private chat" curse Xiao Qing sent to him!

Xiao Qing used extremely harsh words in the letter, accusing him, the deputy envoy of the North Road Transfer, of being incompetent.

As the deputy envoy on the first route, she had no control over the North Road area and was simply a loser. As a result, she, the secret envoy of the Demon Supervision Department, was attacked by Saibei Tangmen outside Hanjiang City and was seriously injured.

Ask him if he still wants to do it and can he be the deputy envoy?
If not, let her adoptive father Li Chaoen live forever...replacement!
"How dare you, a mere junior in Feng Zi Ke, humiliate me like this?"

"Who do you think you are? Can you decide my future and destiny?"

When Lin Hui saw these words, his whole body felt bad and he was so angry.

According to his status, he was a real feudal official. Not to mention that Xiao Qing was just one of Li Chaoen's many adopted sons and daughters. Even if her grandfather Xiao Liang and father Xiao Yong were both alive, she was not qualified to talk to him like this.

"Sir...are you okay?" The concerned voice of his subordinates came from outside.

Lin Hui panted heavily with a livid face. After a long while, he said in a deep voice: "It's okay."

It suddenly became quiet outside.

Lin Hui calmed down somewhat now, sitting on the chair with twinkling eyes.

"Xiao Qing... why did you suddenly appear in Hanjiang Realm?"

"That old dog Li Chaoen always has no trace of the antelope's horns when doing things... Could it be that he smelled something?"

He murmured softly, his mind spinning rapidly.

Although the entire North Road Demon Supervisor Department is under his control, there may not be anyone from that old guy.

And those antique dealers acted in a rather high-profile manner because they didn't know the reason.

In fact, it’s impossible to keep such a thing low-key.

How can we find relevant clues without making an acquisition in a big way?
Since the Xiao family in the capital and the Liu family of Hanjiang's tiger army each obtained a seal, except for the one known to be in Li Chaoen's hand, there is no news about the remaining ones.

According to speculation, almost all the Tiger Soldiers who had received the seal in the past chose to settle in the nearby Hanjiang City.

Unlike Xiangyang City, which is close to the border, it is also known as the small Jiangnan in the north of the Great Wall. The land is fertile and the products are abundant. With their connections in the military, they can live very well there.

Over the years, Lin Hui has never given up investigating this matter.

But as the Xiao family and Liu family were in trouble one after another, the remaining Tiger and Guard troops who had seals also smelled the danger, and they all went into hiding and never showed up again.

"No...if this yellow-haired girl was really sent by Li Chaoen to investigate this matter, she wouldn't have come to accuse me in such a big and aggressive manner."

The key point is that at this moment, there is no news from his two confidants in Hanjiang City, Li Qiu and Sun Yuquan.

This gave him a hint of danger.

The people from the Tang Sect in Saibei are fine for doing dirty work. Asking them to investigate this is undoubtedly seeking the skin of a tiger.

So this matter cannot be passed through them!

Lin Hui also had deep resentment towards Saibei Tangmen.He and the other party, one is an official and the other is a gangster, but they work for the same person.

Those brutal cold-blooded killers didn't listen to him at all!

Now that group of people has also appeared near Hanjiang, which means that the people behind him... are also on guard against Lin Hui!

Lin Hui stood up slowly, his eyes shot out two cold rays, and ordered outside: "Get your horses ready and go to Hanjiang City!"

Now that things have come to a point, he must go there in person.

Didn't Xiao Qing severely accuse him? Then he, a high official in the court... would take this opportunity to go and visit in person!
Xiangyang is more than 230 miles away from Hanjiang City. I worked hard and arrived in almost two hours.

"I want to see how badly you are injured!"

……

Inside Cuifang Building.

Zhang Fan was very drunk.

Holding the girl in his arms, he yelled that Song Yu was an unreasonable guy and even cheated his brother, making it impossible for him to go home and communicate with others.

Looking at his already extended hand and the blushing face of the girl in his arms, Song Yu felt that this guy must be pretending to be drunk.

He was just venting his dissatisfaction.

To be fair, without the factor of Zhao Huan, the eldest son of Prince Qi, no matter how much amazing business talent Song Yu showed, the Zhang family and his son would never give in easily.

What can you do if Huang Ping attacks Hua Jin?

Isn’t this done yet?
Zhao Huan's attitude towards Song Yu made Zhang Sihai and Zhang Fan, an old Jianghu father and son, both envious and confused.

But one thing they can be sure of is that Zhao Huan's attitude towards Song Yu is different from others!
When we met for the first time, he generously gave away a set of palace villas, plus a few top-notch courtesans who Zhang Fan couldn't even kiss when he came to Cuifang House!

Especially the girl in colorful clothes is a signature of Cuifang Tower. Many big shots in Hanjiang City are proud to have her by their side, and no one dares to touch her.

Because King Qi had secretly said that no one was allowed to offend Caiyi.

Such a girl was given to Song Yu? !

Even if Zhang Fan was given a valuable purple bamboo forest in the first place, it was only after they met several times and became familiar with each other.

Why does he, Song Yu, do it?

Lao Jianghu has a characteristic that he remains vigilant and awestruck towards anything beyond his own knowledge.

Since the prince values ​​Song Yu so much, this talented young man must have a bright future.

Whether it is cooperation or the final compromise in the negotiation, it can be regarded as a kind of goodwill from their father and son.

It was for Song Yu, and even more so for the Crown Prince.

Zhang Fan also made it clear early on that he was not targeting the Huang family and his son, but Song Yu.

At this moment, he was acting wildly there, still using the energy of drinking to remind Song Yu repeatedly.

Song Yu didn't pretend to be confused. He sat there drinking quietly and let the beautiful woman around him feed him. He laughed and agreed with Zhang Fan.

He said that he was aware of this matter and had kept it in mind.

Although he drank a lot of wine, Song Yu's mind was extremely clear.

He cheated.

If you run the scripture while drinking, the alcohol will be easily dissolved.

So much so that the beautiful and experienced woman next to her couldn't help but praise Mr. Yu for his wealth.

Of course she knew that this was the person that the prince valued very much recently, so she even gave him all the colorful clothes for this reason.

In my heart, I was very envious of the good luck of the girls in Caiyi. They were willing to pay for being with such a handsome and talented young man!
While the two were drinking, Mrs. Shui, the owner of Cuifang Building, also came over to offer a toast.

He was also very polite to Song Yu in his words.

I asked Caiyi and Luhe if the girls were obedient. If there was any need, she could help at any time.

Taking the initiative to provide after-sales service was an obvious gesture of goodwill, and Song Yu thanked him with a smile.

But he didn't communicate too much with this mature and beautiful poster, because Sword Spirit reminded him in his mind that this woman is a master!
This was the first time since Song Yu came to this world that Sword Spirit seriously reminded him to pay attention to someone.

Fortunately, Mrs. Shui's eyes were clear, and she saw that although Song Yu was polite and polite, she had no intention of having a close relationship with her, so she took the initiative to leave after toasting three glasses of wine.

Although she didn't show any abnormality, the reminder from the sword spirit still made Song Yu couldn't help but think about one thing.

Cuifang Tower is the property of Prince Qi's Mansion, at least on the surface, so Mrs. Shui...theoretically should be Prince Qi's person.

In this case, how many of the girls sent to his house... could be theirs?

Colorful clothes?Green lotus?
It's all possible.

If not, Song Yu himself didn't believe it. Just because the crown prince Zhao Huan was so kind to him, he must have some purpose.

But even if there is, he can only pretend that he doesn't know, and no one knows his secret anyway.

In addition... he is very good at turning enemies into friends, or turning other people's things into his own.

Seeing Zhang Fan go from pretending to be drunk to actually being a little drunk, Song Yu took the initiative to end the "celebration banquet" for the two of them and asked the girl taking care of Zhang Fan to take him to the room.

He stood up directly, and in the slightly disappointed and resentful eyes of the girl next to him, he dropped the ten taels of silver and turned to leave.

He doesn't feel any psychological pressure from sleeping with girls from a brothel, but he has no intention of touching the twelve best girls in his family for the time being. After experiencing these things recently, he knows that only with strong strength can he protect himself and his family.

The other ones are just random flowers and charming eyes, and they are all false.

……

Lin Hui's Qingqi was reduced to only seven or eight entourage, and they entered Hanjiang City at high speed.

At this moment, he looked nothing like a high-ranking official from the capital.

Dressed in black attire, with cold and determined eyes, he was galloping on horseback, looking more like a man from the world.

After entering the city, he immediately asked his men to contact Li Qiu and Sun Yu.

But until he found Xiao Qing's temporary residence, he still didn't get any response.

At this time, Lin Hui's face was as dark as water, and he was extremely angry deep in his heart.

He suddenly realized that his two confidants had probably suffered the same misfortune as Zhao Bo!

who did it?

Just as their group entered the city, another group of people hurriedly entered the city through another gate.

At this time, the sky was getting dark and the snow was falling heavily.

Lin Hui and others did not notice that just above their heads, a goshawk was circling in the wind and snow.
