Chapter 299 Doubt

After thinking about it, the easiest places to get news here are inns and teahouses, but if you take the initiative to ask others, you may be misunderstood. Naturally, the most important thing now is to think about how not to attract the attention of others and still get news. way.

She had an idea in her heart, so she had more momentum. She, Qiao Zhuang, dressed up as a woman and still disguised herself as a man. Although it would be easy for people to see her flaws, it was better than just showing up as a woman in the teahouse.

There are actually all kinds of people in the teahouse, and most of the people who come here to drink tea want to communicate. She doesn't know how to describe her current mood, but she just knows that sitting in the teahouse at the moment feels a little uneasy.

The people going back and forth are talking to each other in a low voice, and the people sitting on those chairs drinking tea are also talking in a low voice. Although the teahouse feels very clean, you want to hear what others are talking about. It's not that easy, she frowned, took a sip from the teacup on the table, and looked around worriedly, she felt that there was something wrong with the people here. For some reason, she felt that everyone here was suppressing something. That's not real.

On the first day in the teahouse, I found nothing and didn’t hear any useful news. It was even more difficult to inquire about news. Hua Xiaoqiao lay on the bed in the inn and looked helplessly at the mosquito net on the bed. There were no mosquitoes this season, but The mosquito net in the inn was not taken down.

She sighed helplessly, not knowing what to do next.

In the morning of the second day, I planned to stay in the inn to inquire about a little news. The business of this inn is very good. Many merchants live here and the shopkeeper seems to be easy to get along with. She thinks it would be useful if she can hear something in the inn. The news is also good.

The shopkeeper of the inn saw Hua Xiaoqiao's face of deep thought and he knew that he was sitting by the window with something on his mind. When there were no guests, he walked up to Hua Xiaoqiao and sat down.

"Looking at the girl who is so preoccupied today, I don't know what she is thinking?" The innkeeper smiled and looked at Hua Xiaoqiao with a very gentle voice.

At this time, no one will come to stay in the store, and no one will eat, but she is free. Seeing that the shopkeeper is talking to her, Hua Xiaoqiao smiled kindly and said, "Is the shopkeeper finished with work now? Actually, there is nothing to take off, what should I do?" Talking to the shopkeeper is because I have encountered a little difficulty, shopkeeper, when will the flames of war be subsided and when will the people be able to live and work in peace and contentment?"

She saw the rushing people outside and the officers and soldiers on patrol suddenly felt such emotion.

The shopkeeper raised the corners of his lips when Hua Xiaoqiao said this: "Miss is worried about this matter. In my opinion, the flames of war here will subside sooner or later. Miss, you are not worried about this matter. If you If there is anything that needs to be clarified, if you believe me, you can talk about it."

Hua Xiaoqiao thinks the shopkeeper is very interesting, especially since she can tell at a glance that she has something on her mind and she can tell that the shopkeeper is a smart person by answering questions that are not asked.

"I came here to meet a friend, but this friend is in a high position and it's not easy to meet. I don't even know where he is now. I'm sitting here just to get a little more information. I don't know. Can the shopkeeper help?" She didn't have any hope and she didn't know why, so she said it in front of the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper nodded as if suddenly enlightened and said: "I said, miss, you look so preoccupied that there must be something confusing you. It turns out that it is because of this matter. I don't know who you want to inquire about. Is it convenient to tell me? Of course, if you feel uncomfortable, I won’t force you.”

Hua Xiaoqiao thought for a while and thought that it would be a good thing if the shopkeeper could really help her, so she said, "The person I want to inquire about is named Qin."

As soon as these words came out, the shopkeeper's face was full of surprise. He looked at Hua Xiaoqiao in surprise and said, "Miss, what you said is true?"

"Of course it's true, so I'm worried about whether I can find him or not. Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I saw him. This time, it's because I have to find him for something very important. Otherwise, I wouldn't have spent so much energy to come here. Come."

It would be great if I could have other contact with Qin Mu. The shopkeeper hesitated and said, "I don't know if you have any tokens about this young master. If you have, maybe I will help you."

As a token, Hua Xiaoqiao suddenly thought that the jade pendant Qin Mu gave her was only used to enter the Jin palace, and now the jade pendant is still in the space, but this token is not something that can be given to others rashly, besides, when she came I heard Pang Peng say that there are so many exams here, maybe an inconspicuous person is a secret agent, and what this secret agent is best at is disguising himself.

She didn't know whether the shopkeeper was a good guy or a bad guy, and what if he was a bad guy?The incident she encountered in the county before was a thorough lesson for her. Now she is so easy to trust people casually, and she is full of doubts about others.

She shook her head and said helplessly: "Speaking of keepsakes, I really don't have any. We were just meeting by chance before. I understand the kindness of the shopkeeper, but this matter is a bit difficult... I'd better find another way. I believe I can find him."

When she said this, even she didn't believe it. After all, Qin Mu was so easy to see. The last time Hua Yuantao was able to meet Qin Mu, it was all because of a coincidence. Now her place is so good. How could his luck meet Qin Mu casually.

The more I think about it like this, the more I feel a little helpless and my mood gets worse.

But the shopkeeper is very good at comforting people, and he didn't force Hua Xiaoqiao to continue talking, but comforted him: "Miss, you don't have to worry too much. I believe that if you persevere, you will be able to achieve what you want. In fact, it is not such a difficult thing, is it? ?”

These words gave Hua Xiaoqiao great comfort. She also knew that it is not difficult to find someone. In fact, as long as she persisted, she would be able to succeed.

She nodded to show that she understood what the shopkeeper meant: "Thank you shopkeeper for your comfort. I wonder if the shopkeeper knows where the army is stationed?" She has been here for so long and still doesn't know where the army is stationed. Think about her own inquiry The truth is not very good.

The shopkeeper looked around and found that no one was paying attention, so he lowered his voice and said: "There is a flat land ten miles outside the city. The person you are looking for is probably there. Miss, I can only say that if you can know this person, it is considered a Luckily for you, he is now a remarkable figure."

The shopkeeper knew in his heart who Hua Xiaoqiao was talking about, but it was only Qin Mu. Thinking of Qin Mu's current identity, he could understand what Hua Xiaoqiao was worried about. It was not easy to find Qin Mu, but If you find it, it will be Hua Xiaoqiao's blessing. He doesn't know whose adult is so careless to let his child come to the border alone and do these things, but he also appreciates seeing Hua Xiaoqiao doing things cleanly. Hua Xiaoqiao.

He has seen many people of all kinds in this inn. To be honest, this is the first time he has met Hua Xiaoqiao. He always feels that Hua Xiaoqiao is a bit extraordinary.

Hua Xiaoqiao smiled gratefully and said, "Thank you shopkeeper for your encouragement. I will definitely keep looking, and I will definitely find the person I am looking for."

She is very confident that the ultimate purpose of coming here is to find Qin Mu anyway. She doesn't believe that Qin Mu can slip out of her nose, and Qin Mu said that he has paid attention to her affairs before. If it is true If you have paid attention, then you must know that she is here, maybe Qin Mu will be able to find her on his own initiative after a while.

Thinking of it this way, it seemed that I felt a lot better in my heart and felt a little comforted.

Seeing Hua Xiaoqiao laughing, the shopkeeper stood up and said, "If the girl stays for a long time, the rent will be discounted. By the way, you are looking for this person. I hope you don't go around talking about it. It's best for you It’s better to hide it in your heart.”

What he was worried about was that Hua Xiaoqiao had caused unnecessary trouble for him, and Hua Xiaoqiao could understand this. After all, this person's grace was not simple.

Hua Xiaoqiao sat until dark, but heard a lot of useful news from many merchants. The innkeeper knew that Hua Xiaoqiao was inquiring about the news, but he didn't rush to prepare the meal when it was time for the meal, and asked the waiter to bring it up. .

After inquiring a lot of useful news, Hua Xiaoqiao was satisfied. Basically, she knew that the two countries were in a truce. The long-term war left the two countries' military supplies empty. The most serious thing that troubles Qin Mu now is the problem of military rations. You must know this Army rations are the most important supplies for border soldiers. Everyone is flesh and blood and must have food. If there is no army rations, the lifelines of the soldiers in front will be cut off.

Hua Xiaoqiao also knows that Qin Mu's current situation is not as good as everyone said. You must know that the prince is still in the court and there are many remaining parties. It was Qin Mu who was in the limelight during this time, no matter what, Hua Xiaoqiao felt that seeing Qin Mu was the most important thing.

I stayed in the inn for another two days and finally couldn't find a better way.

This day the shopkeeper knocked on the door of her room himself, when Hua Xiaoqiao opened the door the shopkeeper entered the room.

The shopkeeper looked at Hua Xiaoqiao with some joy and said: "Little girl, I just heard a piece of news that may help you. The person you are looking for may have to come to the restaurant next door. I heard the waiter in the restaurant next door say that every once in a while The person you are looking for will come to the restaurant from time to time to taste the dishes of the restaurant. I heard that the chef in the restaurant is a cook from Tongzhou City. I think the person you are looking for probably wants to try it. Taste of home."

Hua Xiaoqiao's eyes lit up when she heard this, she looked at the shopkeeper gratefully and said, "Thank you shopkeeper for the news, it's really great."

She didn't know how to describe the happiness in her heart, but she felt that this incident surprised her.

The shopkeeper was a little embarrassed and said: "You don't have to thank me. I think you are more destined to help you, and I am the happiest in my heart. If you want to see him, miss, you can think about how to sneak into the restaurant."

Hua Xiaoqiao shook her head: "It's fine to get in and see from a distance. I don't expect anything else. Everything is fate."

She didn't say much, but thanked the shopkeeper and closed the door. She frowned slightly, thinking that there was something wrong with the news the shopkeeper had inquired about. The way the shopkeeper got the news seemed a bit too simple, and she couldn't tell Why do you have such doubts? I just feel a little strange in my heart.

She still remembered that a long time ago when the prince's men wanted to assassinate Qin Mu in Tongzhou, they hijacked her in an alley by accident and asked her to take them into Jinwang's mansion. Even when Qin Mu was assassinated, she stepped forward to block Qin Mu, but she was not injured, but she was paralyzed for such a long time. All of this was like a dream, making her a little dazed and unreal.

The innkeeper is too kind and the way to get the news is really smooth, and she knows who she is talking about just by saying a word. I have to say that the innkeeper is very powerful. She knows that she has been suspicious during this time, but she does not I feel that there is nothing wrong with being suspicious. As long as you can ensure safety, it doesn't matter if you are a little suspicious. It is better than being confused and putting yourself in danger.

She decided not to act rashly tomorrow and then take a closer look at the surrounding situation, and pay attention to who the shopkeeper is and what intentions she has, so as not to bring too much trouble to Qin Mu then, then she is the feel guilty.

When it was time to eat, she didn't ask the waiter to deliver food upstairs. She hadn't gone out all day and planned to go out to get some fresh air, and then go shopping and buy something to eat when she came back. There is really nothing to eat.

When she went downstairs and looked at the people sitting in the inn, she always felt that the atmosphere was a bit weird. She couldn't explain why she felt this way, but she always felt that there were suddenly many people with murderous eyes in the inn.

Xiao Qiao is very familiar with the murderous flower, she has encountered so many dangers before, and she can see from the eyes of these people what the meaning is that she wants to exude.

She glanced at the people sitting in the lobby with some concern, then found a corner and sat down. She lived in the inn for the past few days and was very familiar with the waiter and the shopkeeper in the inn, especially every time the waiter went upstairs. Hua Xiaoqiao will give rewards when she spends time, which makes the shop assistant have a good impression of her.

The waiter came over with a smile and said, "I don't know what Miss wants to eat today? Why doesn't Miss eat upstairs?"

Hua Xiaoqiao smiled and replied: "I always feel uncomfortable upstairs every day. Now I want to go downstairs and take a walk. Just prepare some food for me. After eating, I want to go out and walk around."

She casually said something to the waiter and turned around to prepare. The shopkeeper stood behind the counter and glanced worriedly at the people sitting in the room, and sighed in her heart. I have to find **** by myself.
