Regarding Zhang Yan's order, Director Liu, Shi Ran and others naturally would not slack off. The next day, that is, early in the morning of the eleventh day of the twelfth month of the lunar calendar, Director Liu, Shi Ran and others left Zhang's mansion and went to different places according to Zhang Yan's instructions to monitor, track, probe, and investigate their targets.

Shi Ran, after a whole day of secret monitoring and squatting, found that except for taking her young son to the street in the afternoon for a short circle and basking in the sun, Liu Yunyan basically never left the door of her house. It can be seen that the house on Huaishu Street should indeed be Liu Yunyan's hiding place in Lu County. In addition, Shi Ran and the others also cautiously inquired about the situation of the servants in Liu Yunyan's family, and learned that the maids around Liu Yunyan were very limited. In addition to the two personal maids and guards, there was only a couple of servants who were in charge of the courtyard cleaning and daily meals, and their daughter, who was about ten years old. In other words, in Liu Yunyan's hiding place, including the child, there are only seven people in total, and the ones who are really capable of resisting are Liu Yunyan herself and the two maids, which is very beneficial to arresting her. As for the two mansions on both sides of his residence, Shi Ran and the others also managed to investigate, and found that the two mansions were empty and had not been inhabited for a long time, which was also good news for Zhang Yan.

As for the Luxian branch of the "Tianfulou", the two "Feiyantang" spies who were in charge of monitoring Fan Wucheng's movements wandered around the Luxian branch of the "Tianfulou" for half a day, and they did not notice that Fan Wucheng had left - whether he appeared in real person or disguised. It was not until near noon that Jia Wenqing, the county commander of this county, visited the Luxian branch of the "Tianfulou" in person, and then left the restaurant at noon in the company of the Jia County Order, and went to the Jia County Order's Mansion for a banquet, and returned to the "Tianfulou" Luxian branch at the end of the afternoon, and never came out again. However, it is worth mentioning that although the Fan Wucheng seen by these two "Feiyantang" detectives is the same as the Fan Wucheng described by Shi Ran to Zhang Yan before in terms of figure, face shape, eyebrows and eyes, etc., they are not the same in terms of facial complexion. Shi Ran saw Fan Wucheng's face was turmeric and sickly, while the two spies saw Fan Wucheng with a pale, radiant complexion, and no appearance of poor health. I am afraid that this difference can only be attributed to the fact that this Fan Wucheng Fan Fourteenth Master Yu Yirong is very good at it, and he can show people with different appearances on different occasions, and the one who left the Luxian branch of the "Tianfulou" and went to the Jia County Ling's house to go to the banquet is his true true face.

Compared with the good news of Shi Ran's side and the calm and usual situation of the Luxian branch of the "Tianfu Building", Director Liu, who went out of the city to find a secluded place, was a little depressed. This guy took two spies in a carriage to the north and east of Luxian County and circled several times, until they ran nearly ten miles away from the city, but still did not find a suitable place to detain Liu Yunyan and others. This is not that Liu is careless and ineffective in his work, but it is really limited by objective conditions.

In the past two years, as the "Qingyuan" brothers took charge of Youyun and established the Beiping Army, and formulated and promulgated a series of laws and regulations and policies beneficial to the people, the 16 prefectures of the Beiping Army, especially the prefectures and counties in the eight prefectures in front of the mountain, have made great progress. As Lu County, which is only a few dozen miles away from Beiping City, it is the first to get the moon near the water. During these two years, the agricultural harvest and the development of industry and commerce not only attracted a large number of business and tourists from the south to the north, but also a large number of Han people from outside the Saiwai came to defect, resulting in a substantial increase in its population. With the increasing population, the limited area of the county is naturally difficult to accommodate, so that many latecomers choose to live outside the city. As a result, the originally remote and barren places outside the city have gradually become populated, and those places that can be considered secluded either have no suitable hiding place or are too far away from the city to be conducive to communication with the city. …,

It can be said that Director Liu's whole day has been in vain. Faced with the fact that he failed to complete the task very well, and was obviously inferior to the other two groups of colleagues, especially Shi Ran's group, Director Liu couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart, for fear that the head hall master would blame him and he wouldn't be able to eat and walk around. You must know that with the discovery of Liu Yunyan's hiding place and the mysterious relationship between him and Fan Wucheng, Shi Ran's status in Zhang Yan's eyes has now improved significantly, and he has a tendency to be on an equal footing with Director Liu, the former boss - even if it was Director Liu who was the first to discover Liu Yunyan's traces instead of him Shi Ran.

Fortunately, Zhang Yan did not blame Liu for his poor performance, but comforted him and encouraged him not to be discouraged, and to go to the west and south of the city tomorrow to check, it is impossible to find a place in the surrounding area of the huge county seat of Luxian County where traitors can be secretly detained - the reason why Zhang Yan is so forgiving is because in her opinion, there are only a dozen or so people around her now, whether it is Liu or Shi Ran, they are the right-hand men she needs. It is necessary to give them a certain amount of pressure and create an atmosphere of competition between each other to spur them on at all times. It is also necessary to encourage and win them over at the right time to maintain their loyalty to themselves.

For Zhang Yan's magnanimity, Director Liu was naturally grateful, and immediately said that he would never live up to the trust of the hall master, even if he broke his legs tomorrow, he would find what satisfied the hall master, and this was exactly the result that Zhang Yan wanted to see.

The next two days are basically a copy of the 11th day of the 12th month of the lunar calendar, whether it is Liu Yunyan in Huaishu Street, or Fan Wucheng in the Luxian branch of "Tianfulou", there is no special move. One who takes care of his young son at home as before, and whose range of motion does not exceed 100 steps around his dwelling; Not only did he not even have a branch of "Tianfulou" in Luxian County, but in addition to summoning the chief shopkeeper of the "Datong Commercial Bank" in the local area twice, none of the other guests were seen. The only difference from before is that only Director Liu is responsible for this way. After experiencing the disappointment of the first day, he took his people on the second day, that is, the twelfth day of the twelfth month of the lunar calendar, almost all the places in the west and south of Luxian County, and finally found an abandoned Taoist temple that could be used to secretly detain Liu Yunyan in a secluded place more than three miles away from the official road in the south of the city. Moreover, in order to verify whether this abandoned Taoist temple is really safe, Director Liu himself also deliberately stayed there for one night and felt the environment there firsthand.

It can be said that when Director Liu returned to Zhang's Mansion on the evening of the thirteenth day of the twelfth month of the lunar calendar, the action to arrest Liu Yunyan, the traitor of "Feiyan Hall", was already ready, and only Dongfeng was owed. To the relief of Zhang Yan and her subordinates, the shareholder wind blew early the next morning.

At the end of the afternoon of the 14th day of the twelfth month of the lunar calendar, one of the two spies who was in charge of monitoring the Luxian branch of the "Tianfulou" rushed back to Zhang's mansion, and reported to Zhang Yanyu with a slight excitement on his face: "Master of the hall, Fan Wucheng has left Luxian at the end of the morning and returned to Beiping City. Before his subordinates came back to report the news, his party was already more than ten miles away from the county seat of Luxian. At this time, he is afraid that he is already halfway through the trip. ”
