"Hei Shilang? It's him?" Yang Nianqing was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, she understood. "It must be that the murderer bribed him and deliberately sent him to distract you."

Li You frowned: "Old Hei? I'm afraid he won't say anything..."

"He said it." (d9)

Li You was somewhat surprised: "You told him?"

"I told you to be careful."

Upon hearing this, Li You was taken aback for a moment, and then a cheerful and bright smile gradually appeared in his long, slender eyes: "I should thank him."

He Bi said coldly, "Don't be happy, he hasn't admitted to being your friend."

Li You smiled: "I never thought he would admit it."

After a while.

Nangong Xue frowned: "Hei Silang only ever takes on murder jobs."

He Bi nodded: "He owes that person a favor."

Upon hearing this, Nangong Xue was slightly surprised. After pondering for a moment, she shook her head with a smile: "Hei Silang is known as a half-pound assassin. He is also very fair in business. How could he owe anyone a favor? I have never heard of such a thing."

“Wrong, he did owe Old Li a favor,” He Bi said calmly, picking up his teacup. “Since we’re alive, everyone owes others favors to some extent.”

Yang Nianqing nodded in agreement.

Li You looked at him with amusement: "In that case, I'm afraid you owe me the most."

He Bi actually nodded: "I am truly grateful. Do you want me to repay you?"

"I want to, I really want to," Li You immediately said with a pleased expression, leaning back. "How will you repay me?"

He Bi looked at him: "You know I only have a bunch of cases on my hands..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li You immediately sighed and interrupted him: "Forget it, just please repay me less in the future."

.

Sure enough, early the next morning, He Bi and Nangong Xue took Zhang Mingchu's body to Jiangzhou, while Li You and Yang Nianqing headed to Lin'an.

To save time, the two traveled day and night, practically sleeping in the carriage. After a few days, Yang Nianqing had gotten used to riding in the carriage, but she was still very puzzled—He Bi and Nangong Xue went to Jiangzhou to investigate Zhang Mingchu, but who exactly were the two of them looking for in Lin'an? And what did it have to do with the case?

Who exactly was that mysterious figure? Li You refused to say. She was naturally very curious and had tried countless methods to get him to reveal the truth along the way, but Li You was not so easily fooled.

"Hey, how far is Lin'an?"

"The trip will take about two days and two nights."

"Really? Heh... What if the person we're looking for isn't here?"

"Won't."

How did you know?

"Because I know him."

There was a brief pause.

"What exactly do we want with him?"

"To find out information."

"Who is he, and how does he know all this?"

"She doesn't know either..."

"Then why should we still look for him?"

"She has a way of finding out."

He choked.

"Who...is he?"

You don't know him.

...

Finally, Yang Nianqing gave up trying in despair and said weakly, "What do you want from me to tell me? You're just teasing me!"

"Playing to pique her interest?" Li You looked at her, then suddenly smiled. "Actually, it's easy to find out..."

"how?"

"You'll know when you get to Lin'an."

I'm going crazy!

"you……"

"You can treat me to a meal if you like."

"Great!" he exclaimed with delight.

"But do you have money?"

"……No."

"So it still doesn't work."

Yang Nianqing slammed her hand on the table and stood up abruptly, furious: "Are you kidding me?"

"How dare I?" Li You leaned back in his chair, touched his ear and smiled wryly: "It's really lucky that my ears haven't gone deaf along the way."

"Serves you right!"

“I’m just worried,” Li You sighed, “that if I were to become deaf, it might cause some trouble when someone cries for help…”

Yang Nianqing was stunned for a moment, then sneered: "Are you threatening me?"

"I wouldn't dare."

How could a modern woman like me be so easily threatened? Do you think I'm easily intimidated? I'd rather die than be humiliated. So be it, maybe I can even travel back in time after I die!

Yang Nianqing went all out: "You think I'm afraid?"

“Of course I’m not afraid,” Li You immediately shook his head, looking at her seriously, “As long as you shout, the murderer will definitely cover his ears and run away, so why would I be afraid?”

Hangzhou is a famous ancient capital and a renowned cultural city throughout history. It is not only rich in historical sites and beautiful scenery, but it also flourished during the Song Dynasty, a time of great commercial prosperity. On West Lake, yachts and painted boats ply the waters, complementing the countless pavilions and towers. In the alleys and lanes, taverns and teahouses abound, and singing houses and brothels stand side by side. There are also morning and night markets, making it a very lively place.

"Beyond the mountains, green hills rise; beyond the towers, more towers stand. When will the songs and dances of West Lake cease?"

This is the capital city, a paradise of peace and prosperity, a haven for the wealthy, where extravagant lifestyles and hedonistic indulgences can be lived, regardless of the former capital and lost territories of the north.

Yang Nianqing and Li You entered the city on October 3rd.

She stayed with Li You at an inn called "Hongyan Laibin." Winter had arrived, yet the entire city of Lin'an felt no chill or desolation. Yang Nianqing admired it for a while, realizing that she was living in the Southern Song Dynasty. It seemed that the poor had a hard time surviving here; following the rich was certainly advantageous. The lodging wasn't priced in copper coins, but two taels of silver a day. While not comparable to a modern five-star hotel, it was still remarkably comfortable. Moreover, two taels of silver was enough for an ordinary person to live frugally for nearly half a year at this time.

.

After taking a comfortable bath and lying in bed, smelling the delicate sandalwood scent, Yang Nianqing cursed the extravagance in her heart for a long time. Tired of cursing, she decided to put aside her past grievances and take the initiative to go and discuss things with Li You, because she was really curious about who that mysterious person was.

To her surprise, as soon as she stepped out of the room, she found Li You standing outside. He appeared to have changed his clothes; although still white, they seemed strangely brighter and more flamboyant.

Is he about to go out?

"Handsome guys are so pleasing to the eye!" Yang Nianqing sighed softly, then immediately noticed that the expression on that handsome face was a little different from usual. After thinking about it, she finally found the reason—he usually had a funny and joking look, but she never expected him to be so serious, even with a hint of helplessness in his expression.

Is it to pay a visit to that mysterious figure?

Remembering the past grievances she had just put aside, Yang Nianqing immediately went up to greet her: "Hi, where are you going?"

Upon seeing that it was her, Li You indeed stopped and changed to an amusing expression: "Looking for someone."

She was just waiting for those words: "I'll go too."

To everyone's surprise, Li You shook his head: "It's better if you don't go."

"What?" Yang Nianqing glared at her immediately, her face displeased. "Didn't you say you'd let me know about Lin'an? Now you want to go back on your word? Don't you know what credibility means?"

“I know,” Li You said with a wry smile, “but I’m afraid you wouldn’t dare go to that place.”

"Tch, I've seen all kinds of dangerous places," she sneered, "I can make unverifiable boasts without batting an eye. You think I'd be too scared to go through fire and water? Are you just making excuses not to take me with you?"

Li You stopped speaking, only looked her up and down. Suddenly, his long, slender eyes narrowed, and he revealed a mysterious and captivating smile, like that of Buddha holding up a flower.

Yang Nianqing immediately sensed something was wrong and took two steps back warily.

"The place I'm going to..." he said with a playful expression, "You really want to go?"

As long as she wasn't used as a hidden weapon, Yang Nianqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, almost raising her hand to wipe her forehead: "Of course... I'll go."

There were no mountains of knives, no seas of fire, only a magnificent pavilion before them. Although carved beams and painted rafters were nothing new in Lin'an, it still attracted considerable attention. Night had fallen, but business here was booming. Customers came and went in a constant stream, ranging from elderly people in their seventies to teenagers. Most of them wore ambiguous and satisfied expressions, and some even had a beautiful woman, swaying with pleasure, on their arms.

Above, there is an exquisite plaque with several large, elegant characters: Ruyulou.

"There are beauties in books," some people may read books their whole lives and still not find them, but here, you can have a beauty that satisfies you in less than half a cup of tea, provided that you have enough money.

.

Yang Nianqing stared wide-eyed at the plaque for a long time, then at the men and women for a long time, before finally turning her gaze back to Li You's face with resentment.

Unfortunately, Li You not only didn't blush at all, but also watched with great interest.

Damn, how could I not have thought of this? This playboy, now in the bustling capital, wouldn't be able to resist indulging in some revelry! Did he deliberately bring me to a place like this to discourage me? Yang Nianqing curled her lip, secretly laughing at him for picking the wrong person: I, Yang Nianqing, am not an ancient woman. I've been dressed as a man all this way, so what's the big deal about sneaking in? Besides, she's longed to experience the stories of women disguised as men visiting brothels in novels for a long time, and today she can finally experience it for herself, haha.
