Chapter 535: The Art of Fishing

Yuan Bin was stunned when he heard this, and then asked curiously: "Has he come to the imperial capital?" ”

"Lao Jianhua didn't come," Shen Lie took another drink and responded, "I'm talking about his eyeliner." ”

Yuan Bin nodded: "Oh, I said, give him a hundred guts, he won't dare to come here." My lord, Lao Jianhua's eyeliner has been lurking in the imperial capital, why do you suddenly want to test their reactions? ”

Shen Lie said with a smile: "Because Lao Jianhua is going to make a move, I wonder if he will send some powerful people to the imperial capital, so I want to catch a fish." ”

Yuan Bin was a little puzzled and looked at Shen Lie suspiciously.

Seeing his appearance, Shen Lie patiently explained: "Jiang Yao's unexpected battle across the river suddenly blinded the entire rebel army, and Lao Jianhua and Li Wei were so frightened that they almost evacuated Hangzhou. What's next, you say? ”

Yuan Bin thought about it, and his eyes lit up: "Whether it's out of revenge or to eliminate the serious threat of Dadu Hu, the thieves must be thinking about stirring up the wind and rain!" And the emperor is the only place that can add chaos to the capital, so he naturally refuses to let it go. ”

"That's exactly what happened." Shen Lie smiled slyly: "Emperors have wasps, and they also have Lao Jianhua's eyeliner, but their skills are so much, it is difficult to create a bigger incident." Therefore, if Lao Jianhua has any new ghost ideas, he will definitely send others to carry them out. I showed up at this time just to get the other party's attention, and then find their nest and wait for the big fish to arrive. ”

Yuan Bin understood Shen Lie's intentions and said with a smile: "What do you need to do small?" ”

"From today onwards, you are going to keep an eye on my surroundings in secret." Shen Lie calmly ordered: "If you find that someone is following me, first find out the origin of the other party, and then deal with it differently." ”

Yuan Bin smiled faintly: "Understood." If it's someone who is against the scales, I'll take action for the adults and make him disappear; If it's Lao Jianhua's person, I'll try to inform you so that you can lead him in. ”

"Smart," Shen Lie nodded approvingly: "I could have done these things myself, but in order not to affect the plan, I can only ask you to work hard." ”

Yuan Bin smiled and waved his hand, indicating that this was a trivial matter, and then asked: "My lord, is this matter clear to the Imperial Capital Branch?" ”

Shen Lie shook his head slightly: "I didn't plan to inform the brothers of the branch. First, this is just my judgment, whether Lao Jianhua will really send someone is not very sure at present. Second, the Imperial Capital Branch is still dormant, and if the movement is too great, once new losses are incurred, I will not be able to explain to Jiang Yao and Yudra. ”

"That's okay, it's enough for the two of us." Yuan Bin raised his glass and touched Shen Lie: "Although my ability is almost good, I can't compare to the brothers of the Imperial Capital Branch, but I promise to complete the instructions of a good adult." ”

-

In the next half month, Shen Lie would appear in some places such as restaurants and teahouses in the market from time to time with his original appearance, and after occasionally appearing, he immediately disappeared, and the methods used were all secret agents to make familiar doorways.

This kind of operation method is naturally difficult for ordinary people to pay attention to, but if it falls in the eyes of those who know how to do it, it is very easy to arouse vigilance.

Sure enough, two groups of people targeted Shen Lie one after another. One of them is the secret agent of the Beiya Reverse Scale Division, and the other is the patrol of Jingzhao Yin's Mansion to patrol the streets.

These two passers-by should also be unlucky.

While they were holding Shen Lie, another pair of eyes behind them were also looking at them. When these people wanted to go back to their respective yamen to report the major discovery, the evil star suddenly fell from the sky, and the result was clean and neat.

It wasn't until the third group appeared that there was a sudden light in those secret eyes.

Lao Jianhua's fine eyeliner in the imperial capital did not have any obvious marks on his body, but for Yuan Bin, who had been lurking in the Jiangnan region for a long time to carry out secret missions, he could almost see through the origin of the other party at a glance.

He was secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly walked around to Shen Lie, and informed the other party according to the signal agreed in advance: The idea has been hooked.

Shen Lie remained silent, still following the previous practice, dodged several times in a row, and directly threw off the tail behind him. At the same time, he also reminded Yuan Bin not to follow the other party.

Yuan Bin was a little puzzled, and immediately asked Shen Lie after he went back, didn't he plan to follow the vine and touch the melon? Why don't you let that guy be stalked.

Shen Lie smiled faintly, if they were so easy to be followed, Lao Jianhua would be in vain.

The next day, Shen Lie didn't move. On the third day, Shen Lie didn't move. It wasn't until the evening of the sixth day that Shen Lie set off again and went to Chengpingfang Horse Mansion alone.

He went there because a few fools had been waiting here for six days.

From the day Shen Lie's traces were discovered, the spies that Lao Jianhua had planted in the imperial capital were highly vigilant.

They are a relatively independent team that specializes in spying on intelligence and carrying out assassinations in the imperial capital. In order to protect Wei Zixuan's safety, Lao Jianhua had never mentioned the existence of wasps to these people, and naturally they had never had any contact with Shang Shu's Zuo Servant Shooting Mansion.

Unexpectedly noticing Shen Lie's appearance in the imperial capital, the first question that these well-trained spies considered was whether this would be a trap. After repeatedly confirming that they were not being followed, they immediately made a decision to spread a wide net and search for Shen Lie.

If you can kill the famous Shen Changshi, it is equivalent to getting rid of a piece of Mr. Lao's heart disease, which is definitely a great achievement.

And one of the meshes they cast their nets was Murong Xue's official residence and the Seventh Princess Li Xi's Mansion.

The reason behind this is very simple: Murong Xue and Li Xi have a great relationship with Li Jiangyao, and Shen Lie and Li Jiangyao also have a deep relationship. Shen Lie came to the imperial capital, and if there was any important secret operation, he would most likely get in touch with Princess Fenyang.

The hard work paid off, and the spies who squatted for six days finally waited for Shen Lie's figure.

Six days is not a long time, but it is not a short time, and Lao Jianhua's people almost have to conclude that Shen Lie has left the imperial capital and is ready to give up watching. Unexpectedly, this big fish suddenly appeared again, which immediately surprised and delighted them.

That's often the way people are. At first, it is easiest to raise the guard, but as long as the time drags on, the tense nerves will inevitably relax. Especially after strong expectations and repeated entanglements, the situation that I hope for suddenly appears, which makes people only care about ecstasy and forget the existence of danger.

Even the habits cultivated by long-term training can be greatly reduced by drastic changes in mood.

Shen Lie took advantage of the characteristics of human nature to seize control of things.

With his ability to come and go, under the surveillance of the spies, he sneaked into the Pony Mansion, and waited for an hour before carefully slipping out again. The whole process was made mysterious by him, and no matter who looks at it, the things behind it are not simple.

The best thing is that Shen Lie came out of the Pony Mansion and did not choose to walk, but got into a carriage parked two streets away, which made it more convenient for the spies to follow him secretly.

"My lord, there really is a tail in the back, and there is more than one." Yuan Bin, who was pretending to be a coachman, lowered his voice while driving the car: "Those fools have taken the bait." ”

Shen Lie's voice came from the carriage: "They are better with me than me with them." After the other party thinks that he has completely grasped the initiative and completely relaxed his guard, let's touch their melons in turn. ”

"Gotcha! You've heard you right! Yuan Bin laughed, raised his whip and shouted, and let the horse run forward briskly.

-

"Mrs. Rui, I really didn't expect that Mr. Lao sent you here in person."

"What? Can't I come? ”

"That's not what it means. The last incident of Xiangji Temple, and the assassination of Xiaoting later, the brothers are quite worried about you. At present, the emperor is not very peaceful, so we have to be careful. ”

"I don't need you to say this, I have my own measure. How's the errand going? ”

"Madame Hui, the instructions sent by Mr. Lao before have been implemented one by one in accordance with the requirements, and the operation can be carried out only when the envoy arrives in the imperial capital. This is a collection of messages that we have compiled for this purpose, so please take a look at them. ”

Rui Ji stretched out her hand and took the scroll presented by the other party, looked at it slightly, and then nodded lightly: "Okay, things are well done." This part of the palace, in particular, is very valuable for my next actions. ”

"It's a great honor to be praised by my wife." The leader of the secret agent smiled flatteringly: "Starting from Ma Yunfang and Murong Ling, Mr. Lao is really too clever to directly defeat the main generals of the Vermilion Bird and Qinglong Legions." What is the saying? The soldiers who surrender without a fight, and the good ones are also good. Or it is also called, four or two thousand pounds. ”

Hearing his sycophants slapping nondescriptly, Rui Ji couldn't help but smile: "I said Lao Chang, you are good at writing, you must be deeply influenced by the literary world of the imperial capital, right?" ”

No matter how stupid the leader is, he can hear the other party's sarcasm, and suddenly said embarrassedly: "Mrs. Rui has won the award, and she has won the award." ”

Rui Ji was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, straightened out her temples, and said softly: "This way around is far away, but it will exhaust me." Chang, if there is nothing else, I'll rest early, and we'll discuss the details of the action tomorrow, okay? ”

"Okay, Mrs. Rui has a hard journey, she should rest early," the leader nodded again and again: "There is hot water prepared in the bath, and there are two deaf and dumb maidservants to serve you, Madame can relax and go to sleep." ”

Rui Ji bowed slightly, and asked, "Are you safe here?" ”

The leader replied, "Absolutely. This place was chosen by Mr. Law himself, and the brothers had been lurking here since before the Turkic occupation. ”

"Okay, you go, I'm going to take a shower after tidying up." Rui Ji took off the hairpin on her head and commanded lazily.

The leader agreed, and was about to turn around and leave, but after hesitating for a moment, he stopped again: "Madame Rui, there is a big matter, and I will report it to you humbly." ”

"Oh? What's the matter? ”

"I don't dare to be greedy for merit, and I ask my wife to preside over the overall situation." The leader smiled: "We found Shen Lie's nest in the imperial capital and are about to take him down. ”

Rui Ji was startled when she heard this, and the hosta fell out of her hand, and fell into two pieces on the ground with a bang.
