It was not until the second day after the opening that Yan Xuehuai made time to ask about Chai Yan's departure from the city.

"Sister Huai, I'm sorry, we were one step late and only found two corpses." Chai Yan said.

He received the news from Liuli and brought Feiyuwei out of the capital.

Liuli and his friends found the traces of Chanjuan and Lin’s mother in a place called Guzhen.

Guzhen is a big town with a ferry in the town, which is a must-pass place for ships entering Beijing. Guzhen not only does the business of supplying ships to and from, but also has a large shipyard.

The boat yard was not allowed to enter, saying that this was unlucky.

But outside the yard, there are countless small boats, and the boats are doing the boatman's business.

The boatmen don’t have time to go to the town to buy things, and their daily needs come from these small boats.

Eat, drink, clothes, shoes and socks, and women.

There are many foreigners in Gu Town, several times that of locals.

Most of the boatmen in the yard are from other places.

At the beginning, the boat outside the yard was home to Guzhen locals. At that time, everyone sold their own rice cakes, rice dumplings and wonton buns.

I don’t know when there were women dressed in charming clothes on the boat. These boats and these women all came from other places.

There are no women in the boat yard, and local boatmen can still go home to reunite with their wives. Boatmen from other places can only find a way out.

As a result, the business of these women on the boats is getting better and better.

Later, the local popularity was so popular that I started this kind of business.

Of course, unless the local people are really forced to go to a dead end, no one will let their daughter-in-law do such a thing.

It’s not good for your own, but it’s okay for your own.

There was a small boat with the surname Huang on the boat. Originally, he sold alcohol. This year, the government did not allow him to sell alcohol casually, so his family changed to selling dumplings, but there were too many selling dumplings, and the business was getting worse day by day. A few days ago, Lao Huang asked someone to ask the price and wanted to sell the boat at home and prepare to do other business, so he no longer expects to live in the boat yard.

But not long ago, someone came to Lao Huang to buy a boat, but Lao Huang refused.

Within two days, a red curtain was hung on Lao Huang's boat.

Everyone in Gu Town knows what this red curtain means.

Any small boat with red curtains is used to do flesh business.

The locals call this kind of small boat a red curtain.

There was an extra woman on Lao Huang's boat wearing coarse cloth clothes and looking white and clean. Fortunately, she was young, only seventeen or eighteen years old. The woman was not outstanding in the red curtains in this area, so she did not cause any sensation.

Guzhen does business with foreign ships and foreigners, and can be found in shops from all walks of life. In addition, the most are those who do flower and willow business.

The one on the boat is called the red curtain, and the one on the shore is called the red lantern.

The red curtain never comes ashore, and the red lantern never comes on board. This is also an unwritten rule in Gu Town. The red curtain and the red lantern do not affect each other, and no one steals any business.

Liuli followed her all the way, and when she arrived at Gu Town, she felt that her mother Lin and Chanjuan would hide here.

Because this place is too lively, although it is just a town, it is no less lively than Hangzhou and Sucheng.

Moreover, there are too many people from other places here, and the yamen is not strict about household registration management. Most of the people in Gu Town have not officially settled down. The yamen can't control it at all, so they simply turn a blind eye.

Because of these reasons, Liuli thought that if it were him, if he wanted to find a temporary shelter, it would definitely be here.

Someone asked whether Sucheng and Hangzhou were also very lively? It was hidden in the city, so you can hide there.

However, there are yamen runners on the streets of Sucheng and Hangzhou. If you want to live for a long time, you will have to register in the government. Let alone these, you have to check carefully even when entering the city. If there is no road guide for outsiders, even the gates of Sucheng and Hangzhou will not be able to enter.

Besides, the portraits of Lin’s mother and Chanjuan have been sent to Sucheng and Hangzhou first. I’m afraid that at this time, the gates of the two places have been posted.

Compared with Sucheng and Hangzhou, Gu Town is really a paradise for escapees.

Surrounded by water on three sides, a small boat can escape.

The more Liuli thought about it, the more she felt that Chanjuan and Lin’s mother must be hiding here.

He and the twenty guards he brought were disguised and searched for the whereabouts of Chanjuan and her daughter in Gu Town.

Although Guzhen is very chaotic and mixed with dragons and snakes, a mother and daughter from other places will still attract attention. Moreover, neither of them is old. Lin’s mother is in her thirties and Chanjuan is only seventeen or eighteen years old.

Soon, Liuli and others found that five mothers and daughters from other places had appeared in Gu Town recently.

Two of the mother and daughter came to Gu Town to get married. Liuli sneaked into the two families without having to look closely and knew that they were not Chanjuan and Lin’s mother.

Among the other three pairs, one of them runs a tailor shop in the town. They opened the door to do business. Liuli also went to see it, either, Chanjuan and Lin’s mother.

There was also a couple. The mother was a rude woman for the local Wang Guoshen’s family, while the daughter was a maid who swept the house. Liuli used the same trick again. In the middle of the night, he jumped into the yard of Wang Guoshen’s house and lifted the quilt that was being a mother. Well, she was a wrinkled woman with yellow face. As for that daughter, she was black and fat, it goes without saying that she would definitely not be Chanjuan.

The remaining two pairs are all red lanterns.

He also opened the door to do business. Liuli walked in openly. There was a couple who almost thought they had found the right person because the mother in that family was in her thirties and her daughter was only seventeen or eighteen years old.

Liuli paid ten taels of silver and chatted with the daughter of the family for a while. After a while, Liuli knew that she had found the wrong person.

Although the daughter could say a few soft words of Wu, she only had a few words. After a few words, she lost the filling. She had a mouthful of the Central Plains accent, but it was not the same.

Liuli is most familiar with this accent.

Earlier, when the Empress brought the accompanying house from her parents' house, she would throw the official language aside and change it to her hometown dialect whenever she drank a few more drinks.

Therefore, Liuli knew where he was from when he heard it. The information he had learned about Chanjuan was definitely not Chanjuan himself.

Although I found the wrong one, ten taels of silver cannot be spent in vain.

Liuli chatted with the girl for a while. The girl was named Hongguo. Unexpectedly, she found clues when she talked.

Maybe seeing Liuli being young and generous, the Hongguo girl was very happy and talked too much.

I heard that Liuli wanted to find someone, and she was looking for a colleague of her age, but that girl not only could speak official language, but also spoke southern words.

Hongguo slapped her thighs: "Oh, I remembered it. What you said must be that little hoof."

"Which slutty person?" Liuli asked.
