Chapter 61
On the inner floor of the inn, Li Chongjiu closed his eyes and immersed his whole body in a wooden barrel containing various medicinal materials. This is exactly the medicinal bath Li Chongjiu soaked in when he practiced health preservation exercises.

Li Hu and Wang Mahan were puzzled by this. It was only a month since he came to Luoyang, and Li Chongjiu took two dips in medicinal baths. It's not like this flower.

Although after hearing Li Chongjiu's explanation, the two could only hold a skeptical attitude.

While waiting for Li Chongjiu to take a medicinal bath.

At this time, someone outside the inn could be heard stepping in. It turned out to be Su Su's voice, and he said: "Chief Escort, things have finally turned around."

"What's the turning point? Could it be the Escort's business? I have some clues." Li Hu's low voice came out, obviously a little excited.

Hearing this, Li Chongjiu couldn't help opening his eyes, and heard how Su Su discussed with Li Hu.

I only heard Su Su say: "A few days ago, I was traveling outside to visit my classmates for the affairs of the Escort Bureau. Today, there is finally someone who is willing to help us."

"Who is it? Why didn't you help before, you want to help now." Li Chongjiu heard that Li Hu was still very cautious.

I only heard Su Su say that the classmate who is willing to help is surnamed Wang Minghe, and he is a member of the Wang family in Taiyuan.

Speaking of Taiyuan Wang, one has to mention Qiwang, the most famous five surnames in the world, and Taiyuan Wang is one of the five surnames.

After the unification of the world, the Southern Dynasties fell, and the Langya Wang Clan, known as one of Wang Xie, had gradually declined, but the Taiyuan Wang Clan rose up because it joined the Northern Dynasties. It was only implicated in the rebellion of the Han King Yang Liang in the early years of Daye, and it is still the current one. Powerful, especially Taiyuan County, the prestige of the county.

And Su Su's teacher, Wang Tong, was from the Wang family in Taiyuan.

When Wang He and Su Su were classmates, they had a good friendship. Although they were the concubines of the Wang family in Taiyuan, but because of their classmates, they agreed to make peace with Li Chongjiu and the others at the Yuan family in Runan.

Hearing this, Li Chongjiu couldn't help feeling that something was a little strange.At this time, the medicated bath was almost done. Li Chongjiu got up immediately, wiped his body, put on his clothes and walked out the door.

When Li Chongjiu saw Su Su, he immediately asked, "Fourth Uncle, you said that you are a classmate, and you have such a big face, can you talk to the Yuan family?"

Su Su hesitated for a while, and said: "He is confident that he has an old relationship with Mr. Yuan Jiasan, so he can speak out."

Li Chongjiu asked again: "Then what reward can he ask for, or my escort agency, what plans does his Taiyuan Wang family have?"

"No, he said that everything is for the sake of his classmates, so he and I had a good friendship back then." Su Su said with a smile.

Seeing what Su Su said, Li Hu said: "In this case, let's meet this person first."

The next day, Li Chongjiu, Li Hu, and Su Su invited him to a banquet at Henry Building.Henry Building is a well-known restaurant in Yidong, and the visitors are all celebrities every day, and this banquet is expensive.

Li Hu, Li Chongjiu, and Su Su were all waiting in a wing room on the second floor of Henry Building. After waiting for a while, the other party had already arrived.

The other party was a man in his thirties, and when he saw Su Su, he bowed to him. Su Su was very happy to see the other party, and said: "I am no longer a scholar, brother Wang, you don't need to practice this ceremony."

Fang Yan said: "Brother Su is just following the example of Duke Fan Li, so what can you say for a short time?"

Hearing what Wang He said, Su Su, Li Hu and others were very happy.The three of them sat down to talk, and Wang He's words were elegant and personable, which immediately made everyone feel good.

He was very enthusiastic about the Yuan family's affairs, and he said that he could come forward to make contact, but the third son Yuan was kind, and he would not embarrass the Escort because of this.

Li Hu and Su Su were overjoyed to hear this.

The banquet was generally eaten, and everyone was enjoying themselves happily, but Wang He retired first, leaving only Li Hu, Li Chongjiu and others.

"Chief Escort, Young Escort, what do you think?" Su Su asked.

Li Hu thought for a while, and said: "If you can make peace with the Yuan family, whoever calls them a family whose arms can't twist their thighs, it's just..."

While talking, suddenly there was a knock on the door of the wing room.

"Guest officer, there is still a dish of steamed carp yet to be served."

"Oh." Li Hu was rather displeased, the shopkeeper only presented the last dish after all the customers had left.

Li Chongjiu was a little surprised, the waiter in this shop just delivered food, when did he become so polite.At this time, Li Chongjiu listened carefully, and there were several snorting sounds on the left and right outside the door.

If Li Chongjiu's eyes and ears are much more sensitive after practicing the health-preserving skills, he will definitely not be able to hear this.

At this time, the door suddenly opened, and four masked swordsmen entered with their swords.

"Step aside!"

Li Chongjiu suddenly jumped up, shouted loudly, and made Li Hu and Su Su step aside, lifted up the eight-seat round table in one breath, and hit each other head-on and face-to-face.

Crackling, chopsticks, plates, and countless leftovers were thrown head-on.

The four swordsmen were startled, but a bit caught off guard, and retreated together.

At this time, Li Chongjiu heard the sound of trampling on the stairs from the bottom of the stairs. At that moment, he did not know how many people were catching up to the stairs and coming here. Obviously they were the follow-up people, and they wanted to kill Li Chongjiu and the others in one fell swoop.

Li Chongjiu saw that there was no time to let go, so he opened the window behind him, and Luoshui was facing below, and several small boats loaded with melons and fruits were slowly passing by the water.

"Jump out of the window!"

Li Chongjiu gave Li Hu and Su Su a wink, and the two jumped out of the window without hesitation.

The sailors who were rowing the melon and fruit boat were all shocked when they saw someone jumping off suddenly.

After hearing two thuds, Li Hu and Su Su both fell into the water. When Li Chongjiu saw the swordsman approaching behind him, he also plunged into the water in one breath.

Li Chongjiu climbed onto the boat, raised his head, and saw four masked swordsmen on the window, who could only squeeze together by the window. The boat was going down the current, and in an instant, it had traveled more than ten feet away. These swordsmen could only wait and give up. .

After Li Hu and Su Su were dragged onto the boat by Li Chongjiu, they were all trembling with anger. Obviously, the date at Jiulilou was a trap that the Yuan family had set up long ago.

Fortunately, the location they had chosen was Jiuli Building, and Li Hu reserved a good seat near the water for entertainment, so they were spared a difficult situation.

Su Su said angrily: "This Wang He actually colluded with the Yuan family to betray me, I will not spare him."

Li Hu said in a loud voice: "Fourth brother, don't be arrogant, the Yuan family is enough, let alone the Taiyuan Wang family, we can afford to provoke this."

"Father, I don't think so." Li Chongjiu wiped the water off his face, his tone was calm, but his eyes showed seriousness.

Dongdu Zeshanfang is adjacent to Nanshi, and Jinqu passes through the square, dividing the square into east and west.

In Fangli, the distinction between rich and poor is also very clear.In the Han Dynasty, people respected the right, and generally the poor lived on the left side of the square gate. The square gate was called Lu in ancient times, so it used to be called "Lu Zuo".The wealthy landlord is called Haoyou.

Therefore, in Zeshanfang, the Yuan family in Runan lived at the west end of the workshop. In the evening when the gate of the workshop was about to close, Li Chongjiu quietly entered Zeshanfang alone.
