Zu An explained: "Do you think Sang Qian will lead the army?"
"Of course he..." Halfway through, Qin Wanru suddenly understood the subtext of his words. These salts were nominally from the Chu family and the Wang family. If Sang Qian led troops to encircle and suppress them, they would seize the salt. It should be returned to its original owner.
In that way, the Chu family could easily overcome this difficulty. How could the Sang family allow such a thing to happen?
But if left alone, the Sang family is worried that this batch of salt will fall into the hands of the Chu family, and they are also unwilling to see that happen.
Then there is only one possibility left. They are most secure in keeping this batch of salt in their own hands. At the same time, they cannot mobilize troops publicly, so they will most likely choose some trusted confidants to handle it quietly in private.
Qin Wanru couldn't help but look at Zu An a few more times, wondering if this guy was still the good-for-nothing gangster he remembered.
"Madam, why are you looking at me? Although I am handsome, I will be embarrassed to be looked at like this." Zu An touched his face with a "shy" look on his face.
Qin Wanru: "..."
This guy is still as annoying as before!
The anger value from Qin Wanru is +123!
Zu An was worried that she had really offended her, and said hurriedly: "Madam, please go in and leave a message for Sang Qian, otherwise Sang Qian will probably not know about the existence of this batch of salt guides. My cultivation level is too low, and I will be easily captured when I go in." Discover."
After being flattered by him, Qin Wanru's expression softened a lot, she took the envelope and snorted somewhat proudly: "Look at me!"
[Mimi Reading]()
After saying that, he flashed his body, found a remote place and entered the Hefang Camp Yamen.
Her heart was beating fast. In fact, she had done some risky things when she was young, but after becoming a duchess, she became more and more pampered. She didn't need to do many things herself, and even her cultivation was wasted.
Now she sneaks into the river defense camp secretly, worrying about being discovered at any time. The excitement makes her feel like she has returned to her teenage years...
Zu An had been waiting outside, and after about a stick of incense, he finally saw Qin Wanru coming out.
He hurriedly greeted him: "How's it going? Have you been successfully notified?"
"How could such a simple thing fail?" Qin Wanru snorted. On the surface, he looked calm, but his heart was beating wildly. He had just been discovered several times inside. Fortunately, there were not many soldiers in the river defense camp. Elite, otherwise she might not be able to get out.
Zu An couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Madam is really amazing..."
Qin Wanru's face turned hot when she heard that the other party's flattery kept coming as if it was free of charge: "Okay, okay, where should we go next?"
"Go to the auction." Zu An took out an invitation letter that Qiu Honglei had given him before.
Qin Wanru took it over and looked at it several times, and couldn't help but said, "Where did you get this?"
Zu An shook his head: "Of course I have my own ways, but I promised that person not to reveal her identity."
Seeing what he said, Qin Wanru couldn't help but asked further, and snorted: "It seems like you know a lot of people."
Zu An chuckled: "I can't help it. I am very friendly and I have attracted a lot of friends without knowing it."
Qin Wanru: "..."
Why does this guy always deserve a beating?
The auction was held in a remote courtyard in the north of the city, but tonight it was not deserted at all. Looking from a distance, one could see bright lights and numerous people inside.
Qin Wanru was about to walk over, but Zu An held him back.
"What for?" Qin Wanru glanced at him holding her hand, feeling a little dissatisfied.
"Is this how Madam is going to go?" Zu An said with a bitter smile.
"Is there a problem?" Qin Wanru asked doubtfully.
"Although you have changed your clothes, your appearance has not changed. As a duchess, you are the most famous person in Mingyue City. In addition, you are so beautiful. Even if you are wearing simple clothes now, you will not be able to walk into the crowd. You will still be the focus of everyone." Zu An explained while considering his words, "If someone recognizes you, wouldn't it ruin our plan?"
Qin Wanru felt comfortable being flattered by his overt and covert flattery. In addition, she really cared about the success or failure of this mission, so she hurriedly asked: "What should we do?"
Zu An thought for a moment and took out a mask from his arms and handed it to her: "Wear this mask, it will turn you into an ordinary person."
This was collected from Chen Xuan's body last time. He was able to escape justice under the joint arrest of the Chu family and Mingyue City for so many years because he relied on these masks to change his identity at any time.
Qin Wanru held the mask as thin as a cicada's wings and couldn't help but marvel: "This mask can only be made by the top rune masters. Where did you get it from?"
Zu An spread his hands and said, "As I said before, I have many friends."
Qin Wanru didn't say anything this time. To be honest, even she was a little curious. Where did this guy get so many connections?
You must know that even she and Chu Zhongtian may not be able to get invitations to such auctions and such exquisite masks.
Putting the mask on her face, a cold feeling came over her. The blue rune stripes on it began to appear faintly, then automatically adjusted according to the shape of her face, and finally stuck tightly to her face.
Qin Wanru hurriedly took out a mirror and was surprised and surprised when she saw the strange woman inside.
Zu An on the side secretly complained, these women
People always carry a mirror with them: "I'm sorry, madam, my appearance is a bit more ordinary now, but our main purpose is to keep a low profile, so this is better."
He somewhat admired Chen Xuan's masks. After wearing them, they would not look beautiful, nor would they be ugly, because ugliness would also attract the attention of others.
All masks pursue ordinaryness, and are popular faces that cannot be remembered if thrown into the crowd.
Qin Wanru said coldly: "I don't care about this."
After that, let’s go to the auction first.
Zu An hurriedly put on his mask and chased after him.
Qin Wanru couldn't help but look at him a few more times, trying to remember his new face, otherwise he might not be able to find him if he got separated inside.
The two came outside the yard and were quickly stopped.
Zu An calmly took out the invitation, and the person at the door checked it carefully before letting the two of them in.
"The people behind this auction are not simple. The nursing homes at the door just now are at least fourth grade." Qin Wanru said in a low voice.
Zu An also nodded solemnly: "Yes, so we must be careful, otherwise we will be in trouble if we are discovered."
Qin Wanru hummed and looked around warily.
Zu An secretly reminded her: "Ma'am, be natural. If you act like this, everyone will know that you are here to cause trouble."
Qin Wanru's face turned red, but luckily he couldn't see it due to the mask.
"By the way, Madam has been in Mingyue City for so long. Don't you know who is behind the black market in the city?" Zu An asked. He had been guessing which force Qiu Honglei belonged to. Unfortunately, he knew too much about this world. Without it, no valid guess can be made.
Qin Wanru shook his head: "I don't know. I originally thought it was the Plum Blossom Gang who was behind it, but it doesn't seem to be the case now."
In the eyes of dignitaries like them, places like the black market are really not worthy of publicity. In addition, they have always been quite honest and have not made any big cases, so everyone turns a blind eye and no one Will keep an eye on these.
At this moment, a frivolous whistle suddenly came from behind, followed by the obscene laughter of several men:
"Wow, this figure is absolutely amazing."
"I didn't expect to encounter such a top quality person in this place."
"Let's go and have a look."
…
Soon several arrogant men quickened their pace and walked around from the side to the two of them:
"It's such a shame that such a good figure has such a damn ugly face!"
Qin Wanru: "..."
