Seeing the thugs surrounding him, Qiao Xi stopped the guard next to him who was about to take action, and said as if he didn't want to cause trouble,

"Forget it, I'm not an unreasonable person. If you don't want to get in, you won't get in. Let the girl who dances best here come out."

"Okay, please take a sip of tea first. Miss Chunhua will be here soon."

After the madam left, Qiao Xi raised his chin slightly and signaled the guards to split up.

"Where are those gentlemen?"

When the madam led a group of pretty girls over and found that only Qiao Xi was left at the table, her face changed and she asked playfully.

She held her chin with one hand and looked at the girl behind the madam with piercing eyes.

She is really beautiful and beautiful, no wonder all men are willing to come.

But with so many beauties, which one did the man choose? And why did he leave in a hurry? To deliver a message or to give an order.

Is this flower building a contact point or does it play some other role?

In just a few seconds, Qiao Xi smiled seductively, making those girls blush with embarrassment.

Because she is now dressed as a man, it is very convenient for her to do things.

With a wave of her hand, she asked the madam to arrange a room for her, "No one is allowed to come in without my instructions."

After closing the door,

The five girls followed Qiao Xi's request, some played the piano, and some danced. The madam who was lying at the door and eavesdropping was confused for a while, so she had to order her subordinates to send this person's portrait to Inspector Jiang's house.

After watching the figure disappear from the window, Qiao Xi quietly added a little confession agent obtained from the Ministry of Punishment to the tea.

But for a moment, confusion appeared in the eyes of all the girls.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Qiao Xi started to ask.

"What are your names?"

"My name is Chunhua, my name is Juxiang, my name is..."

After asking a few more simple questions, she took out a piece of paper from her arms, pointed at the person in the painting and asked,

"Have any of you seen this man?"

Among the people who were shaking their heads, one person tilted his head, as if he was recognizing and resisting the confession agent.

Qiao Xi placed a piece of gold in front of her and said seductively,

"Miss Chunhua, have you seen him before, right? Tell me when you saw him, and who does he usually look for when he comes here?"

"...Today, I'm looking for Lady Li..." The girl in green slowly uttered a few words.

Qiao Xi nodded and put the antidote into the candlestick. After a while, everyone regained their clarity.

She glanced secretly, then closed her eyes and fell asleep again, "Why did you stop?"

Several people looked at each other and continued to perform with doubts.

…

…

"Preliminarily, it can be determined that the things should be in the backyard of Zuichun Building."

After Qiao Xi jumped into the house, he noticed that the air was unusually quiet and asked in a low voice, "What happened?"

The man kneeling on the ground spoke with determination,

"It's impossible. Even if the salt mine is small, it can't be as small as the backyard."

When Qiao Xi heard Xue Bin's rebuttal, she rolled her eyes quietly and then explained,

"I don't know if it's a salt mine, but it's unusual for a brothel to have a handler like an Ouchi master.

According to the girls in the brothel, it didn’t exist before. It only existed three years ago. The time was right.”

"Is it possible that their private salt is also from Nantong?" Qi Anze put forward a very reasonable explanation.

Which crime is more serious, failing to report the discovery of salt mines to the court, or liaising with other countries to sell illicit salt?

Looking at the supervisor with red eyes, she endured it and asked Qi Anze in a low voice, 'What's wrong?'

Wasn't it nice before she set off?

Qi Anze told her with a complicated face, "Just now, the person who was looking after the aunt and the fat man came to report that they were poisoned... Mr. Xue's brother also left with him after he found out."

…

"There is another possibility." Just when everyone was at a loss, Qiao Xi said, "In addition to protecting, those people may destroy evidence."

Seeing the two people looking at him, Qiao Xi also became serious and took out the topographic map of the brothel.

If the salt mine is underground and the entrance and exit are in the backyard, then the brothel here can hide a salt mine, because there is an open space ten kilometers west of the brothel.

"You mean, the salt mine is underground, but they dug a passage from the brothel's backyard." The man raised his eyebrows slightly, his deep pupils full of seriousness.

"Yes, this will explain everything. If we attack the brothel, they only need to blow up the entrance."

"What about the people in the brothel?" Xue Bin asked innocently.

"I have inquired and found out that the girls in the brothel are all poor people. They were all sold by their parents and brothers on death contracts."

At first she thought this was a way of running a brothel, but now she thought about it, maybe in the eyes of those bad guys, it was just a cover-up to hide the truth, even if they were real people.

The air felt like ice falling.

The man's eyes were cold and he clenched his fists tightly. He had been taught since he was young that he should not indulge in sexual pleasure but now he felt extremely angry.

…

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, Governor Tong would like to see you."

Qi Anze signaled Qiao Xi to take Xue Bin out of the back door.

After a moment, he nodded and motioned to bring the person up.

"Teacher, why do you come to see me so late?" Qi Anze helped the old man up who was about to kneel down with respect.

"I have thought about something for a long time, but I still feel that I should tell His Highness, otherwise I won't be able to sleep well."

"Teacher, please tell me."

"I feel ashamed to say that, as the governor of Haicheng, I didn't find out about this until recently. Xue Bin, the supervisor of Haicheng, discovered the salt mine but did not report it.

The old minister had always thought that they used fishermen from Nantong to bring illegal salt in, but the weather has changed suddenly recently, and fishermen cannot go out to fish at all, but illegal salt is still banned. Only then did I discover, "

Qi Anze keenly realized that Qiao Xi's whereabouts had been leaked, and he quickly interrupted, "Teacher, I know this."

"Your Highness knows?" the old man asked with an inquiring look.

"I thought this was a meeting gift given to me by the teacher, and it was something the teacher asked him to do. I didn't expect it to be like this. This Xue Bin is so outrageous."

Seeing the wavering look in his eyes, the man continued,

"I am actually not here for fun this time. I have a mission. Qin Tianjian observed the sky at night and said that there are minerals in the south. Haicheng and Xiangcheng have sent people, and Prince Rui is in Xiangcheng."

The old man understood his hint and said goodbye in a hurry.

…

…

"Quickly, inform the people in Zui Feng Tower to stop taking action."

Seeing the old man running out of breath, Jiang Dalai, the loser, immediately stepped forward to help him, "Sir, it's so late at night, you can directly ask your subordinates to handle anything. Exposing yourself so late at night is harmful to your body..."

Before the flattery was finished, the old man pushed him aside and handed his belt to the guard with the best Qinggong skills.

"Let the people in Zui Feng Tower stop and wait for arrangements."
