The Book of Troubled Times

Having said all this, Si'an calmed down and lost the shock just now.

Instead, he sat back on the table, lifted the jug, took an empty glass and poured a glass, and said, "Since the city lord is here, why don't you have a drink? You can discuss what you want to do next."

Lu Shiheng was ready to strike at any time in his hands, but he was taken aback by what he said, and said with a smile: "Mr. Si'an is rich and well-off, so he really is not an ordinary person."

He sat casually opposite, took a sip from the wine glass, and said, "Why would someone like Mr. be willing to be a mere spy?"

"Look at what you said, what is a secret agent, just because you have a good relationship with the Tang family?" Si'an relaxed, sipping his wine and said, "I have a lot of business dealings with the Tang family, so what's so strange about the close relationship... Speaking of which , the city lord and Tang Shouzuo are colleagues, how come this question makes me not feel like a colleague?"

Lu Shiheng smiled "heh", but he could only see the taste of a superficial smile: "It's nothing, you ask which of your colleagues in the court would like to be watched by spies? The previous court had set up this kind of factory. Wei, isn’t this going to be destroyed? Your majesty is so bold, you never do it, Tang Shouzuo don’t want to risk the world’s displeasure, the carriage cannot fall backwards.”

Si'an smiled, but kept a word in his stomach and didn't say: How do you know I'm a spy? Isn't it because you also have spies? Who is falling backwards? Tang Shouzuo is a wartime mechanism, and she would not use it casually, and she is not responsible for official supervision.

He didn't say that, but said: "The city lord just said that he wanted Li to cooperate with Xiangyang to do something, what is it?"

It turned out that this person's surname was Li, and his first name was Li Si'an. It was a coincidence that the title of fourth brother sounded like Ying Wu's, but it had nothing to do with it. Zhao Changhe has actually heard the words Li Si'an before. It is said that he is very rich, and he is called "Small wealth is peace, and great wealth is peace"...

His money mainly comes from the brothel chain... Now it seems that it is very likely that Tang Wanzhuang is behind it. The secret agent organization of the Zhenma Division is supported by Tang Wanzhuang. No wonder Tang Wanzhuang lived in the backyard of the brothel in Jianhu City...

By the way, who invented the routine of using brothels as an intelligence organization?

Lu Shiheng said: "Sir, are you willing?"

Li Si'an said with a smile: "Look at what the city lord said, how can we Daxia people not cooperate with Xiangyang City's affairs?"

Lu Shiheng nodded: "In that case, sir, you can live in my City Lord's Mansion with peace of mind for a few days, and let my people take care of this Immortal Palace Garden for a few days?"

The words were well-thought-out, but the coldness in his eyes was absolutely undeniable, making Li Si'an feel cold in his heart.

Putting himself under house arrest and occupying the Immortal Palace Garden, what does Lu Shiheng want to do?

He said slowly: "Does the city lord know what he is doing?"

"I know." Lu Shiheng smiled: "Mister has quite a lot of connections in the court, and the Jingchu area also has a lot of connections. If something happens, it's not easy to deal with. Don't worry, sir, you will feel at home when you enter my residence. I will treat my husband half a point."

Li Si'an was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "I hope the city lord understands what I said."

Zhao Changhe, who was eavesdropping, let go of the hand that was already touching the ring and was about to draw the knife.

Since there is no immediate danger, it seems that we can wait, at least figure out what Lu Shiheng intends to use this place for.

Thinking about it, it should be used to cheat Tang Wanzhuang... But even Li Si'an and Da Zhou just received the information that Tang Wanzhuang was coming, and everyone didn't even know the reason why Tang Wanzhuang came alone. Still guessing, how did Lu Shiheng seem to know it long ago?

And even if Tang Wanzhuang came, what was he going to do, what good would it do him to kill Tang Wanzhuang?

That will only lead to crazy revenge from the Tang family. Tang Buqi is afraid that even the Maitreya Sect will be ignored. If he goes crazy, he will make Xiangyang angry. A small county has made enemies several times, so why do you do this?

There is something wrong with this matter... Zhao Changhe has a bad feeling, so let's continue to read and understand.

Li Si'an didn't struggle, and followed Lu Shiheng's subordinates to the City Lord's Mansion calmly. Lu Shiheng actually confessed: "Please greet Ms., don't neglect. The servant girl in the backyard, whoever you like, you can enjoy it."

I don't know if Li Si'an will say "I recruit, don't liberate".

But this guy who owns a chain of brothels shouldn't be able to do that. He seemed to say he doesn't like women just now...

When Li Si'an was taken away by Lu Shiheng's subordinates, Lu Shiheng called one of his subordinates over: "Follow the plan."

"yes."

Zhao Changhe watched secretly for a long time, and could only see that they were changing hands to control this place, but he would not be able to see it for a while.

Right now, I really want to learn from Yuxu's method, how to see all kinds of strange cultivations in my body at a glance... If I also have this ability, I can probably analyze some things from the martial arts of these people. It's a pity that the secret treasure has been broken through, and the five senses have been sharpened, but it is a thousand miles away from the level of this kind of insight practice.

He intends to catch a few people to investigate carefully, but he is afraid of scaring the snake. Zhao Changhe remembered some faces and retreated quietly.

The same is true for looking more, it is better to go to Da Zhou and hope that he is okay.

When Lu Shiheng came to the brothel, Da Zhou had already left... Logically speaking, Lu Shiheng should not know the two lines of brothel and stewed duck clearly, but Da Zhou's place may be safe. Sure enough, when I arrived at the stewed duck alley, I saw that the place was still working, and it seemed that nothing happened.

Da Zhou is packing up the things in his own room, and he intends to obey orders and run away.

Zhao Changhe observed for a while, and after confirming that there should be no problem, he suddenly appeared beside Da Zhou.

"Whoosh!" Da Zhou seemed to be aware of it, and he turned around very neatly with a sword.

Zhao Changhe stepped aside, and handed a token in front of Da Zhou.

The Secret Detective Card of Town Magic Division is still the highest level.

Da Zhou broke out in a cold sweat, surprised and delighted: "I don't know if Shangfeng is here... What's the name of this lord?"

Zhao Changhe held back for a while, and said helplessly, "Zhao Wangtang."

Da Zhou didn't think about the meaning of the name, and said in a low voice: "The situation in Xiangyang is inexplicable. It was fine before, but it suddenly turned into a cloud of fog this evening. I don't know what happened. The first seat let us avoid it temporarily, but My family business has been here for so long..."

Zhao Changhe said: "You left the Immortal Palace Garden one step early, and just avoided the accident. Now you are really fine, you can continue to be a duck."

Da Zhou: "?"

Why does this grown-up speak the same way as those bad friends...

Uh, no, something happened to Xiangongyuan?

Zhao Changhe said: "You can just pretend that this is not the case now, don't act flustered, that's really suspicious... I need to investigate the City Lord's Mansion, do you have any knowledge?"

Da Zhou said: "Sir, are you afraid of the risk of stealing?"

"The main reason is that I'm afraid of scaring the snake. The important place of the city lord's mansion must have arrangements, such as traps, alarm bells, etc. Once I touch something and someone finds it, I'm sure I can run away, but many things will be covered up. Get first-hand information."

This is the truth, why didn't he go directly to the city lord's mansion to investigate the matter, instead of going to the restaurant, chatting with Da Zhou, and the brothel, causing such trouble? After so long in the rivers and lakes, I told myself that there is nothing wrong with being cautious.

"Your Excellency is very considerate." Da Zhou pondered for a moment, then stroked his palms and said, "Every evening we have to send stewed ducks to the City Lord's Mansion. If you are willing to pretend to be me and send ducks in, you can enter the backyard. But that's where the back kitchen is. , unable to enter the key place."

Zhao Changhe said happily: "That's enough, I have my own way to get to the back kitchen."

It really is better to have someone to help you than to be a lone traveler... Zhao Changhe suddenly remembered that he had forgotten who once commented on him, saying that he looked like a loner, but he was actually more used to having an organization. Judging from his recent actions, he was indeed right.

But it's a pity that Dazhou's ducks have been delivered today, and we have to wait until tomorrow.

I don't know if Tang Wanzhuang will arrive tomorrow, but according to her speed, it is really possible to arrive here within a day. For the first time, Zhao Changhe hoped that Tang Wanzhuang would not act so swiftly and swiftly, and come more slowly.
