To Fan Li's expectation, the old man not only had no airs but was also extremely talkative.
The power of the years seems to have settled into knowledge in him.
Fan Li was a man of two generations, chatting with Old Man Hu all over the world, but he felt a little overwhelmed.
"It's really not a good opportunity for a wise couple to go north to purchase goods at this time." Old Man Hu said with a smile: "Yunzhou City is at war. Although the trade routes have not been cut off, there are still some unstable factors after all."
Before Fan Li could speak, Han Yue spoke up first: "What the old man taught me is that unfortunately winter is approaching, which is when fur clothes and cloaks are in short supply. If you miss this season, you will have to wait another year before you can start a fur business. It can be done.”
"Hahahahaha!"
Old Man Hu couldn't help but burst into laughter when he saw that Han Yue, a mere woman, actually talked about merchant trade in a very eloquent manner.
Fan Li was also surprised.
Is this still the Holy Lord Hanyue in his memory?
That strong, noble and proud woman, pretending to be a merchant's wife, is so similar?
"Speaking of which..."
Mr. Hu looked Han Yue up and down and suddenly smiled mysteriously.
"I have some medical skills. I just noticed that Mrs. Fan's face and complexion seemed to have not given birth to any children yet?"
"Why don't we let this old man take Mrs. Fan's pulse and prescribe some prescriptions? Maybe next year, little fan Fan will be able to hold her son?"
"No need!"
Fan Li and Han Yue actually said in unison, rejecting Old Man Hu's 'kindness'.
"Oh?" Old Man Hu looked at the two of them with deep meaning in his eyes.
These days, filial piety is valued all over the world.
The Ming Dynasty especially boasted of governing the world with filial piety.
As the saying goes, filial piety is the first, and no second is the greatest.
A young couple has no children but is not in a hurry to have children. This is obviously not right!
Fan Li also gradually felt that something was not right.
Could it be that Old Man Hu is testing himself?
It makes sense when you think about it, after all, his identity as an official in Yunzhou City is 80% true.
Since he is an official of Yunzhou, how can he not conduct an interrogation when he encounters a so-called businessman like himself who is not afraid of the chaos of war outside the city?
According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, during wartime, it was okay for Old Man Hu to take Fan Li directly back to the city for interrogation.
Therefore, Old Man Hu is polite enough now.
"No need!"
It was Han Yue who spoke first again, but her tone was a bit colder, and her face showed undisguised annoyance.
Fan Li was secretly surprised. He didn't know what Han Yue wanted to do, but he was afraid that his identity would be exposed if he was not careful.
In this way, the only way to keep the secret is to kill Old Man Hu.
Fan Li was a little nervous.
Because he has discovered that he can't see through Old Man Hu's cultivation.
In other words, the opponent's strength must be beyond the Golden Core realm?
Fortunately, Holy Lord Hanyue is by her side. If she is willing to take action, I believe that Old Man Hu will not be able to escape back to Yunzhou City alive.
The only trouble now is, are there any of Old Man Hu's companions hiding nearby?
Even if one of them is allowed to escape, the result will be in vain!
"Mrs. Fan, calm down." Old Man Hu looked at Han Yue steadily, still smiling and said: "I have no ill intentions."
Holy Master Hanyue shook his head firmly: "Thank you, sir, but it's really not necessary. I accidentally injured my body in the early years of my family's life, and I can no longer conceive."
"Ouch!"
Old man Hu looked like he suddenly realized something.
He hurriedly bowed to Han Yue and apologized, and then said to Fan Li, "I should be beaten if I make a mistake. I should be beaten."
Old Man Hu tried to slap himself, but Fan Li quickly stopped him.
"Don't be like this! How can ordinary people not recognize good people's hearts after your kindness?"
Fan Li and Old Man Hu pretended to be affectionate for a while, and then politely gave up.
It happened that at this time, a young man who looked like a book boy came towards the lake leading a horse.
"Director...Old Master, it's getting late. It's time for you to go home."
The book boy shouted loudly, but when he saw two strangers next to Old Man Hu, he immediately changed his tune.
"oh?"
Old Man Hu smiled and shook his head, looking regretful.
"I've been suppressed by Shangguan recently, and I feel very depressed. It's rare to meet such a lifelong friend like my little friend, but it's a pity that we only get to know each other for half a day."
"Little friend Fan, when you come back from purchasing goods from the North, you must stay in Yunzhou City for a few days, how about letting me get acquainted with the landlord's friendship?"
Fan Li nodded in agreement on the surface, but complained in his heart.
He didn't leave any contact information or home address. He really didn't have the slightest sincerity to treat guests to dinner.
Furthermore, if he really stepped into Yunzhou City, he would have led the Chu army to invade.
By that time, Old Man Hu may not be interested in talking to him anymore.
The two sides said goodbye.
Old Man Hu rode a horse, and the book boy led the horse to lead the way, and indeed headed towards Yunzhou City.
Fan Li watched the old man disappear into the distance and suddenly slapped his forehead.
"oops!"
"wrong!"
He suddenly came to his senses.
Old Man Hu invited him to stay in Yunzhou City, but did not provide his address and contact information. This was not because Old Man Hu was perfunctory with Fan Li and did not really mean to treat him.
On the contrary quietly, the other party sincerely entertained him, but because he had too much power in Yunzhou City, as soon as Fan Li stepped into Yunzhou City, he would not be able to escape his ears.
That’s why we made this agreement!
"Yunzhou City...has such power...and is of such age...if his surname happens to be Hu..."
Fan Li's expression changed again and again!
grass!
He wanted to slap himself hard!
Finally, I guessed the identity of that person. He was actually the Governor of Northern Xinjiang of the Ming Dynasty, Hu Zongxian!
If Hu Zongxian can be killed on the spot, Yunzhou City will be destroyed soon!
Such a God-given opportunity was missed by Fan Li? ? ?
"Hanyue!"
Fan Li was anxious for a moment and stared at the woman beside him.
"What?" Han Yue asked confused.
"Can you..." Fan Li was about to speak, but finally held back.
impossible.
Let the Holy Lord of the Pure Land be his killer?
Fan Li laughed at himself in his heart, how could he have such funny thoughts?
"What exactly do you want to say?" Han Yue frowned and tilted her head.
"I……"
"By the way, how could you make up those lies? Pretending to be husband and wife with me, and saying that your parents' family lives in Beiting Lane?"
"Seriously, your performance just now was absolutely perfect!"
Fan Li pretended to be curious and did not forget to praise Han Yue.
"snort!"
Han Yue was praised, but she raised her chin high, as if she didn't care about being praised by Fan Li.
But with a smile on his face, he clearly enjoyed the process.
"I have a sister who lives in the capital of the Ming Dynasty. I often hear her talk about the local customs and customs, so I naturally know Beiting Lane. I even learned the Ming Dynasty Mandarin from her in my free time."
I see?
Fan Li nodded, slightly surprised.
With Han Yue's character, even among the few known Holy Lords in the Pure Land, no one seems to be a friend?
She was always alone, so much so that Fan Li got used to Han Yue's loneliness.
"Let's go."
Fan Li finally felt regretful after missing Hu Zongxian.
"Go back to the military tent."
…
…………
Yunzhou City, Zhenbei General Wang Xingyuan.
Prince Wanli is reading a letter.
The letter is stained with blood!
What’s surprising is that there is actually a man’s body lying inside the cabin!
The corpse was riddled with holes and there was almost no good flesh on it.
The most terrifying thing is that on the left side of his heart, where the old injury was, there is another horrific wound that penetrates his body!
"Qi... the Great General King."
The Ming army scout was kneeling on the ground, his face as pale as paper.
When he looked at the corpse, his eyes still showed fear.
"This man must be the most elite scout of the Chu army!"
"Our scout battalion lost most of its men. Even the captain was killed in his dying counterattack."
"It can be seen that the secret message and information carried by this person are absolutely true and reliable..."
