.Brother, why did you look like this here?"

A sound like fairy music sounded, and Xia Wanchun suddenly turned from the panic just now to be happy, jumped up from the seat, shouting: "Second Sister."

Just when he turned his head and saw Xia Wanchun was stunned. What was the second sister standing behind him? It was clearly a thin young man with a yellow face, over twenties, carrying a big bag. Xia Wanchun pointed at the young man with a yellow face and stuttered: Who is it? How could he have a similar voice to... my second sister."

A smile appeared on the face of the yellow-faced young man: "Brother, how can I not even hear my voice? I am your second sister, but I just changed my appearance a little."

Xia Wanchun looked carefully. There was a shadow of the second sister in the eyebrows of the yellow-faced young man, but it was hard to tell if he didn't look carefully. He happily held the yellow-faced young man's hands: "Second sister, it's really you, it's great."

Du Dengchun on the opposite side was stunned. The yellow-faced man in front of him was the fairy-like woman in white that day. He could not match the two of them. He pulled Xia Wanchun's sleeves and asked foolishly: "Cungu, how many second sisters do you have?"

How many other sisters can there be? Xia Wanchun was so amazed and laughed at her. However, he was secretly amazed at her second sister's outfit. Seeing that someone had noticed this, Xia Wanchun didn't care about eating noodles anymore and threw the noodles: "Second sister, this matter is hard to describe. This is not the place for the conversation. Let's go back to the inn first."

Xia Yunzhen nodded gently, and the three of them left the noodle stall. The strong men on the street were still searching back and forth with their eyes, but their eyes did not stop at Xia Wanchun and the other two. They quickly returned to the inn where Xia and Du stayed.

"Second sister, why can't I recognize you in this outfit? Where did you go again this time? Why don't you go home?" When she returned to the inn, Xia Wanchun asked impatiently. She thought that her second sister would go home in less than a few days last time, but she didn't expect that he was at home for more than half a month and did not see Xia Yunzhen's figure, which made Xia Yunyi and Sheng, and Lu both complain about Xia Wanchun.

The Hou family has urged the Xia family to marry their daughter several times, otherwise the marriage would have to fail, and the Hou family would not have been able to wait for the time being. Xia Yunyi had arranged to get married when his daughter came back, but unexpectedly, she was in a hurry. In addition, Xia Wanchun had a bright future and did not join the army, which really made Sheng and Lu family anxious and angry.

If Xia Wanchun had not become an officer of the Yulin Guard, he would have been able to even come out of his family. Later, after receiving a letter from Chen Zilong, the Xia family learned that Xia Yunzhen had lived in the Chen Mansion for a while, but then he didn't know where he went. Xia Wanchun received strict orders from the three old men in the family. Next time he saw her second sister, he would definitely let her go home.

"My brother, you have so many questions. Where can I answer? It's because the two of you. Last time, they didn't say that they joined the Yulin Guard. How could they live in Huai'an so simple. They wear it like coolie?" Xia Yunzhen also had a lot of problems.

Xia Wanchun laughed: "Second sister, you have many problems than me."

Du Dengchun finally confirmed that the inconspicuous yellow-faced man in front of him was the one who saw Miss Xia Er like a fairy that day. Compared to changing clothes and dressing up with her head, Miss Xia Er's makeup was simply a trick. No wonder she could walk outside alone.

The siblings laughed at the same time and said their trip to the farewell. Xia Yunzhen went straight to the north after she came out of Nanjing. She originally planned to travel in the north for at least one year. But when she arrived in Shandong, it was the time when the Qing Dynasty literary inquisition was the most intense. The government arrested people and beheaded. The government investigated foreigners tightly and secretly informed them. Officials at all levels saw the local interests in the literary inquisition. They were all accused of being a thief. Although Xia Yunzhen was dressed inconspicuously, she still encountered several troubles and had to use fierce means to fight out.

In a fit of anger, Xia Yunzhen killed several Qing Dynasty officials who were arrested and killed indiscriminately. She was even wanted by the Manchu government. After being surrounded and killed by the Qing government several times a month, Xia Yunzhen was helpless. Although she had plans to eliminate some corrupt officials along the way, it was impossible for her to face danger every day. She felt that the front would become more and more chaotic. Xia Yunzhen had to end her plan to travel in the north and come back.

Originally, I came from Xuzhou. The road was calm all the way. I didn't expect that as soon as I came to Huai'an, I felt that Huai'an City was almost the same as Shandong. There were almost people who investigated the city gates and roads. These people did not use the banner of the government. The government did not come forward to stop it. It was obviously accused. Xia Yunzhen was very strange. I didn't know what happened to Huai'an. I didn't expect that I happened to meet Xia Wanchun and Du Dengchun at the noodle stall.

Xia Wanchun also said why they appeared in Huai'an. Xia Yunzhen frowned slightly when she heard it: "So, do you suspect that those people outside are looking for you?"

Xia Wanchun shook her head: "I can't be sure, but be careful, there's no big mistake."

"It's hard. If you really want to find you, although you are hiding in this small inn, you are inconspicuous at first, and there are so many people outside,

You will still be found, but the account book of the Salt Envoy is not easy to get. Before you can wait for the account book, you will be found first.

”

Xia Wanchun became worried: "I think so too, but how can I be content if I don't get the account book? Besides, those people outside may not necessarily look for us. If they really find it, this errand will only be a waste of effort."

"Brother, I'll help you. Today you two will leave the city. We will make an appointment outside the city to meet up. I will get the account book and come to you."

"You..." Although Xia Wanchun had said something about the second sister helping her, it was just a saying. If Xia Yunzhen really wanted to go to the Yanshi Office to collect the account book, what if something happened, how could Xia Wanchun feel at ease?

"What, I'm not at ease with me. I won't force myself. If I can't get it, you won't even think about getting it. Why do I give it a try? Whether it's successful or not, you will leave Huaian. Didn't you say that you already have a lot of evidence in your hands? If there is no account book, you can still convict this Tongzhi, so why bother to force the account book?"

Xia Wanchun and Du Dengchun looked at each other several times and finally nodded. These days, as the city was in strict inspections, although they went out every day, they had no more information. They stayed to get the account book, but if they really asked the people from the Salt Transfer Office to find it, all their efforts would be wasted.

"Okay, second sister, you have to be careful. There is a Caojiaji thirty miles outside Huai'an City. There is only one inn in Caojiaji. We will settle there. Where can we wait for second sister for three days? If second sister hasn't arrived yet, we will come to the city to find you again."

Xia Yunzhen chuckled: "Don't wait for three days, at most two days, I will arrive at Caojiaji. You can prepare three good horses first, and we will ride a horse and leave."

Xia Wanchun hesitated for a moment. With the silver they had on them, not to mention three good horses, even one good horse could not be bought. Xia Yunzhen saw her brother's dilemma, took out a little from the bag he placed on the table, took out a bag and threw it at Xia Wanchun: "Let's go."

"What is this?" Xia Wanchun heard the sound of jingling in the bag and opened it curiously. The yellowish ones inside were all gold. Xia Wanchun took it. The gold in this bag was at least thirty or forty taels. The price comparison between gold coins and silver was one to ten, but the gold was more than one tael of gold. One tael of gold could be exchanged for about thirteen or fourteen taels of silver. Xia Wanchun saw that there were at least five or six such bags in his second sister's bag, and was very surprised: "Second sister, where did so much gold come from?"

You should know that the gold in Xia Wanchun's hand alone is worth about four or five hundred taels of silver. In fact, the gold in Xia Yunzhen's bag is worth at least thousands of taels of silver. With these thousands of taels of silver, you can buy a house or land no matter where you go to the Ming Dynasty and become a wealthy rich man.

"Of course it was taken from some corrupt officials or wealthy people."

"Second sister, I don't want this gold. Corrupt officials are rich and unkind. They have their own laws to punish the court. How can you do it yourself? Second sister, how can you be so confused?" Xia Wanchun put down the bag in his hand with a gloomy face.

Du Dengchun wanted to knock on Xia Wanchun's elm head several times. They were asking for Xia Yunzhen now, so how could he be so rude? Besides, he didn't think it was wrong to take some corrupt officials and be rich and unkind gold. With such a beautiful sister who was so beautiful and generous to her younger brother, Xia Wanchun must have burned Gaoxiang for several lifetimes, but he didn't expect that this kid wouldn't appreciate it.

Xia Yunzhen did not expect her younger brother to have such a big reaction. He was a hero who violated the ban with martial arts. If he relied on the court in everything, there would be no such thing as a hero. Although he was not as good as his younger brother's words, Xia Yunzhen still explained: "I have obtained all these golds in Shandong. Is it not appropriate to kill the officials who were granted by Manchus, and the money they robbed from Manchus. Is it not appropriate?"

The gold in the bag is all ingots and gold beans. In the Ming Dynasty, gold is rarely circulated, and now most of it is replaced by gold and silver coins. It seems that what my second sister said should be true. Xia Wanchun's tense face relaxed: "Shandong is now an enemy country. Since the second sister killed Shandong officials, it is a righteous act for the court. However, some wealthy families still have to treat it differently. The court will take back Shandong within a few years. Many people may not be unwilling to be with the court, but they are temporarily under the rule of the Manchus."

"I understand." Since this younger brother who has admired her since childhood, Xia Yunzhen was angry and laughed, picked up the money and put it in Xia Wanchun's hand: "You should use it with confidence now, and clean up and leave the city immediately."

After taking the gold again, Xia Wanchun couldn't help but feel a little surprised and did not refuse. The two were out, and now it was Xia Tian and didn't bring too much. They quickly packed up their things, returned the money and went straight out of the city.
