"Actually, I don't have the extravagant hope that Hanxiang can follow me. I just hope that she can live well. Miss Xiao is a good person and treats her like a sister. Hanxiang should be happy if she follows her." Zhang Hu smiled bitterly, his voice was a bit bitter, but
But she was extremely gentle: "I also hope that she can marry a good family in the future, have a husband and raise children, and live her whole life..." At this point, his voice was choked with sobs. Xue Poye hurriedly poured him wine, and he drank it all in one gulp.
.
Unexpectedly, this tough man is really tender. It is really an iron rule that this hero is saddened by beauty.
Xue Poye even thought that Zhang Hu must have secretly hidden in a corner to see Hanxiang during his free time these days. Otherwise, he would not have concluded that Xiao Suzhen treated Hanxiang like a sister just based on his impression that night.
.
"I have carried this hairpin with me for three years and have never left it. Before I leave tonight, I must leave this hairpin and give it to Hanxiang. I feel deeply moved." Zhang Hu clenched his fists and said: "This hairpin
Giving the hairpin to Hanxiang is like finding the owner. Maybe Hanxiang was transformed by Ning'er and is waiting for me here, otherwise how could I meet him, haha... Ning'er, have you been waiting here all this time?
Me?"
The "Ning'er" in Zhang Hu's mouth naturally refers to his deceased wife.
The guests downstairs were still in an uproar. Sister's singing could be heard faintly, but Xue Poye heard an extremely contradictory part in Zhang Hu's words.
Lao Tan said that he would leave Hangzhou tomorrow, so why did Zhang Hu say he would leave tonight?
"Brother Zhang, are you leaving Hangzhou tonight?" Xue Poye touched his nose and asked in a low voice.
Zhang Hu was immersed in the longing for "Ning'er", and he was already a bit drunk as he drank a lot. He said confusedly: "Yes, we are leaving for Beijing tonight. It is natural to travel at night to escort the important criminals."
Although Xue Poye was surprised in his heart, his face remained calm and he smiled and said, "Then I wish Brother Zhang a safe journey."
Zhang Hu chuckled and said in a low voice: "It won't be a pleasant journey. There will be a battle in Savage Ridge eventually. It's all arranged... Well, it's better that you don't know this. By the way, we have to do things at night.
Don't drink too much of this wine, lest you miss important events. Brother Xue, I'll trouble you about my brother's affairs. This hairpin must be delivered to Hanxiang's hands."
Xue Poye nodded with a smile: "Brother Zhang, don't worry, I will definitely hand this hairpin into Hanxiang's hands." He took the jade hairpin into his arms.
Looking at the sky outside from the window, it was already a little dark. Zhang Hu stood up and said: "We are leaving soon. I have to rush back early. Brother Xue, brother is leaving first. Thank you for the wine. Green mountains and green waters. See you later."
I'll see you eventually."
Xue Poye liked this straightforward man from the bottom of his heart and said with his fists in his hands: "Brother Zhang, it's easy to go. Next time we see you, make sure you don't come back drunk. You can't use a wine glass then. If you want to use it, use a big bowl."
Zhang Hu laughed loudly, stepped forward and punched Xue Poye on the chest, and said with emotion: "It is really a blessing to meet Brother Xue in Hangzhou. We are just saying goodbye for a while. There is no need to use a big bowl when we meet next time.
, let’s hold the wine jar and see who can drink faster, haha...!" He turned around and went straight downstairs without saying a word.
Seeing Zhang Hu's back disappearing at the top of the stairs, Xue Poye's brows immediately furrowed.
He walked to the window and waited for Zhang Hu to ride away, then told Lao Song to call the singing girl on the second floor to the office.
Zhang Hu has given a lot of information. The important criminal being escorted is most likely the peach blossom boy Qinglianzhao wants to rescue. He also claims that there is a battle in Savage Ridge and that he has laid an ambush. If he hadn't been defeated in a battle with Qinglianzhao,
Forget it, if the opponent is Qingren Zhao, he has obviously laid a trap waiting for Qingren Zhao's people to fall into the trap.
Whether Qinglianzhao's people live or die has nothing to do with him, but if Green Lady is also involved, it will be very bad. He must not watch Green Lady die.
Sister came over soon.
Xue Poye called her up, and she was really surprised. However, she had been in the industry and was a well-trained spy. Naturally, she had excellent psychological quality. She had a seductive smile on her face and twisted her plump body.
Calls herself "Xilei".
Xue Poye's star-like eyes looked extremely deep, staring intently at her sister's body, not a trace of obscenity, but full of confusion and anger.
Such a beautiful girl turned out to be a spy. Who would believe it? Such a spy has been in his restaurant for such a long time, but he didn't notice it at all. It would be strange if he wasn't angry.
The girl was stared at by Xue Poye, and at first she put on some seductive and wild poses, but seeing Xue Poye's gloomy and calm face, she couldn't stand up any longer, so she forced a smile, and that smile said no
It seems far-fetched, and it has completely lost its previous coquettish and charming energy.
"What is the green lady doing now?" Xue Poye asked calmly.
This sentence already named Xi Lei's identity, and it went straight to the topic, which made Xi Lei jump. Just when she was about to speak, Xue Poye said impatiently: "Don't say anything else, don't explain anything, I just want to speak."
Let me ask you, do you know what the green lady is doing now?"
"I...I don't know." Xilei's originally rosy face immediately turned pale.
Xue Poye stretched out two fingers and knocked on the table, making a "dong-dong" sound. Xilei's delicate body trembled as the sound was made.
"I don't have much time to tangle with you. Let me tell you clearly, if you, Qinglianzhao, do anything tonight, don't blame me for not warning you that there will be an ambush waiting for you." Xue Poye sneered: "You guys
People will be like sheep caught in a trap, being eaten one by one.”
Xilei frowned but did not speak after all.
Xue Poye snorted coldly and said in a low voice: "You are earning reward money and eating hard food in my building. I have done my best to be kind and righteous. From now on, you will go back to where you came from."
This was an eviction order. Xilei looked at Xue Poye and saw him waving his hands, bowing Yingying, and turning around to leave. Xue Poye stared at her back and stopped when he saw her walking to the door.
"Xue... Shopkeeper Xue, Hall Master...!" Xilei said softly: "When I came here today, I heard from the sisters that they would do something dangerous in the next two days. I didn't listen carefully. What exactly is it?
I don’t know about it. But...!”
Xue Poye's voice softened a bit, not as cold as before: "But what?"
"However, the hall master ordered people to keep an eye on the government office and report any movement to her." Xilei said cautiously. She spoke very slowly, as if she was thinking about whether these things should be disclosed.
Xue Poye frowned, pondered for a moment, and finally asked: "Do you know where Savage Ridge is?"
Xilei was a little surprised. She seemed to understand what Xue Poye meant, and nodded involuntarily: "I know... I know...!"
Xue Poye knew very well that if Qinglianzhao really wanted to ambush the officers and soldiers in Savage Ridge, he would have naturally gotten the news that Lao Tan was leading people on a night march. As one of the hall leaders, Lady Green must have led people to Savage Ridge by now.
Ridge, prepare an ambush.
"That's good, let me ask you, where is Savage Ridge?" Xue Poye asked a little awkwardly. After all, it was a place that every girl knew, but he had never heard of it before.
"In...more than sixty miles east of the city, there is a large valley. The mountains on both sides are covered with various trees. It looks dark, so it is called Savage Ridge." Xilei saw Xue Poye's expression.
He is dignified and knows that the matter is not trivial, so he tries his best to explain what he knows clearly.
Xue Poye stood up and said, "Come with me!" Without further words, he hurried out and went downstairs.
Xilei hesitated for a moment and finally followed.
Xue Poye took out the long bow presented by Wu Lachi, took the arrow box, went directly to the yard, took out the golden lion, put the bow and arrows away, and with everyone's surprised look, he took Xilei and galloped away. It wasn't that he didn't want to
Explanation would help Yue Zhu and others not to worry, but these things are really unexplainable, and there is no time to explain. Sometimes not explaining is also a kind of care.
"Shop Manager Xue, where are we going?" Xilei sat behind Xue Poye and grabbed his lapel and asked.
"Sit tight!" Xue Poye said in a deep voice, "Let's go to Savage Ridge."
Maybe it's not Qinglianzhao or the green lady that the government is trying to trap this time, but Xue Poye understands that if it's not the case, that's fine. If it is, then Qinglianzhao's Hangzhou branch will definitely be destroyed.
If there is a blow, Green Lady will probably die in Savage Ridge.
Of course, this is what Xue Poye doesn't want to see.
Xue Poye naturally also thought that if he really went to inform the Green Lady and told her that the government had set up an ambush, he would undoubtedly betray Lao Tan.
But Xue Poye didn't feel ashamed at all.
If Lao Tan encounters such danger, Xue Poye is sure that he will help Lao Tan.
