Chapter 382 The Capital (One Hundred and Thirty-Nine)
"If you ask me to tell you, you are being reckless." Zhou Lezhi sighed after hearing what Xu Yong said.
"Mr. Le..."
"I know what you mean. Yourong is Mr. Zhou's concubine, and there is no room for mistakes. You feel that you have this responsibility to Mr. Zhou and Mr. Wang..." At this point, he couldn't help but sigh again.
"Mr. Le, is there anything wrong?"
"Isn't it right?" Zhou Lezhi said with a bitter smile, "There is no turning back, so you can just continue with this matter. But don't come to my place again. Contact me directly by letter. If there is any emergency, go directly to Mr. Wang. There are thieves outside.
There are many, so be careful yourself.”
"This is the capital. Sir, you have Mr. Wang's protection, why should you be afraid of a few thieves?"
Zhou Lezhi smiled but did not answer, and gave him a few more instructions before sending Xu Yong away.
As soon as Xu Yong left, Zhou Lezhi immediately called Wang Zhi: "Just pack up and let's go."
Wang Zhi was surprised: "Let's go? Where?"
They don't have many places to stay in the capital, and they can't go to some places.
"It doesn't matter where we are, let's leave here before we leave." Zhou Lezhi said, "Find an inn to stay first."
Wang Zhi advised: "The sky is clear and the sun is shining brightly, what do you have to fear? The thieves may not dare to break in in broad daylight..."
"They dare and they will definitely do it."
Although Wang Zhi was not his servant, he had followed his orders in the past few years, so he immediately went to pack his luggage without arguing. Zhou Lezhi packed some important items and waited for Wang Zhi to call the sedan chair.
Within two-quarters of an hour, Wang Zhi came to report that everything had been packed and the sedan chair was waiting in front of the door.
"Which one is it from?"
"Just call from the sedan chair at the east end of the street." Wang Zhizhi knew Mr. Le's rules. When calling for a sedan chair, not a traveling sedan chair, you must go to the sedan chair to call for a sedan - the bearers here are all fixed.
One cannot wait there for business.
"Let's go." Zhou Lezhi stood up and said.
The two changed their clothes and came to the door of the house. As expected, there was a two-person sedan parked outside. Wang Zhi looked at it briefly and nodded slightly, indicating that the sedan bearer was still the same person and there was no suspicious person outside. Only then did Zhou Lezhi come out.
Go to the house door and get on the sedan.
The bearer of the sedan chair asked in a low voice: "Can you please tell me where to go?"
Zhou Lezhi had already chosen an inn in the north of the city, but Wang Zhi followed his instructions and only said: "Go to Haiyuan Temple!"
The sedan got up and walked away, quickly and steadily. When Zhou Lezhi got on the sedan, he looked at the street. It was deserted and there was no suspicious phenomenon. At this time, the sedan started walking, and he was more than sure. He secretly thought that it would not work to hide in Tibet like this.
, being forced to the doorstep of the house by the Kun thieves was very inconvenient. He had to find a way to fight back. It’s just that the emperor was very cautious in his actions. If it weren’t for the current “Kun Wu” policy, he really wanted to go to Zhejiang earlier, at least there.
You can do something with peace of mind...
Unknowingly, Zhou Lezhi fell asleep. He slept so deeply that he didn't even have a dream. The moment he woke up, he didn't even know who he was or where he was.
When I woke up, I was shocked, how could he have fallen asleep?! Looking again, I saw that I was not in the sedan, but lying on a bed, with my limbs tied tightly, and I was completely naked, even my hair bun had been removed.
The answer! In an instant, a cold current was like three-nine days of icy water, pouring down from the Tianling Cap, quickly extending along the spinal cord to the limbs and bones, and it was so cold that it penetrated the bones.
While I was shivering, I heard the door open and the footsteps of several people. Then I approached the bed curtain and the curtain was slightly opened at a corner.
"Is it him?" someone asked.
"That's him." The voice was quite familiar, it was the "Leng God of Wealth" he had invited.
"okay."
The footsteps gradually faded away, and the door was closed again.
Capturing Zhou Lezhi was a great achievement for Xu Xu. After confirming that it was correct, he immediately sent a telegram to Lingao.
That night, a reply came from Lingao: "Send him back to the farm safely as soon as possible." Then he added: "All the people in Zhou's house have also been arrested and sent away."
"You want to arrest the people in Zhou's house?" Min Zhanlian was surprised, "They are all women and children..."
"Who said they are all members of Mr. Zhou?" Xu Xu said quietly, "The Senate will not give up until they get to the bottom of this matter. I'm afraid more people will be involved in the future."
"Then Mr. Wang, the Minister of War..."
"We can't move him for the time being," Xu Xu said, "otherwise he wouldn't be able to escape. But we have removed his right-hand man this time, and it will not be so easy for him to cause trouble next time." He looked at Min Zhanlian,
Suddenly he smiled and said, "Aren't you a member of the world? Why are you getting up?"
"My subordinates understand! This is an imperial prisoner of the Senate."
"That's right." Xu Xu nodded, "You just arrest people and kill them, don't know anything else."
"Yes!" There was a slight sweat on Min Zhanlian's forehead. He knew that Elder Xu had always been cheerful and was not someone who liked to pretend to be profound. What he said was by no means alarmist.
"You have to act quickly. As soon as Mr. Le disappears, Mr. Wang will probably realize that something is wrong. The Zhou residence may be closely protected. If you are late, there will be a lot of noise..."
After Min Zhanlian left, Quan Quan walked around the room unable to restrain his excitement. Now this mysterious Mr. Le finally fell into their hands! It seemed that he was fully mentally prepared for being arrested and had many weapons on him.
An unknown drug, which may contain poison.
A person is always prepared to commit suicide, and there must be a lot of secrets in it.
How to get him to speak and tell these secrets is not a matter of permission. That is a problem that the Political Security Bureau and even higher levels must consider. The only thing he knows is that there will probably be many people in the Senate celebrating. Of course, more
Like him, he is full of curiosity about Shi Weng Group and Mr. Le.
If he is also a time traveler, how will the Senate treat him? Xu Xu finds it very interesting. Although a consensus has been reached on the overall program, any time traveler who has engaged in hostile behavior with the Senate is an "enemy" and must be eliminated in principle.
.
But principles are principles, and how to handle it will naturally depend on the public opinion of the Senate. After all, everyone is a valuable asset.
Whether it's "elimination" or "meritorious service", permission is absolutely necessary. He has no special feelings towards this mysterious figure.
Regardless of whether he is a time traveler or not, he has now destroyed more than half of the strength of the Shi Weng Group. The impact of the Shi Weng Group on the future can be said to be minimal. He came to the capital initially just to rescue Leng Ningyun, but he did not expect to gain so much.
As a result, my status and reputation on the intelligence front are bound to increase day by day, and it will be just around the corner that the empty shelf of the Military Intelligence Agency will be implemented.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and he had the urge to have a drink. At this time, someone came to report that Liao Sanniang and Li Rufeng were here.
"Invite them in."
Originally, he did not need to see them, but after the kidnapping incident, the adjustments to the intelligence work that had already been carried out suddenly accelerated. In the future, the organizational structure of the capital will be greatly adjusted. As an important force of the Senate in the capital, He Liansheng naturally has to
Make rearrangements.
Although the two of them had been trained in Lingao, they had worked outside for many years and had not changed their old habits. The men still bowed and the women said good luck. Xu Xu did not take it seriously and said with a smile: "It's rare to see you, sit down, sit down."
"Your Majesty is here, I dare not sit down." Li Rufeng said respectfully.
"Shit! What kind of elder am I?" Xu Xu said with a smile, "No need to be polite, just sit down and talk!"
The two of them sat down. As soon as they sat down, Liao Sanniang gave a detailed report about the people she sent to intercept Pan Chengan.
"...This matter is more or less my own decision. If I ask myself, I actually have a private intention not to bear my sisters to fall into misery."
Xu Xu nodded. In fact, this matter was not hidden from him, and he acquiesced. If Liao Sanniang wanted to defend her motives, she had to have a suitable reason, and her being able to tell the truth showed that she was open-minded.
"...This is not a big deal, and it has nothing to do with our current project." Xu Xu said, "Has the person been found?"
"Yesterday, Zhao Liangjian sent news that they had focused on Pan Chengan in Tongzhou and found out the whereabouts of Yourong. They will bring them all back in the next few days. Originally, I wanted to ask the chief for instructions. These two people
How to deal with it?”
"Yourong is on the list of special cases. Send her here as soon as you find her. As for Pan Chengan or anyone else involved, it's up to you to deal with it - it must be dealt with cleanly."
They both know what it takes to be clean.
"This time, Elder Leng was rescued. He and Liansheng made great contributions." Xu Xu praised, "I have called Guangzhou to ask for your credit..." He waved his hand to stop the two who wanted to speak.
People, "It's all as it should be, no need to be polite. The next thing to talk about is the important thing - it's about He Liansheng."
The expressions of Liao and Li immediately became serious. The life of the escort bureau has been very difficult in the past few years, and most of the escort routes from the capital to other places are in a precarious state. In the traditional escort route, the west escort route can only
Once we reach Shanxi, we are completely unsure about going west. On the contrary, the escort route to the border town in the north has many troops stationed along the road, and "Old Xi'er's" Mongolian business is doing well, so it can be maintained.
As for the southward escort route, only the "river escort" along the canal can still survive.
Therefore, the business of various escort agencies has plummeted, and many have closed down. Strictly speaking, He Liansheng does not have much business to do, but after all, they have the secret support of the Senate, and out of the friendship of the industry, they have also absorbed and placed many
Personnel from other escort agencies.
"The scale of He Liansheng must be appropriately reduced." Xu Xu concluded immediately, "Especially this time, He Liansheng has contributed the most, but it has been exposed to some extent. I am afraid that it will become the object of attention from all parties in the future.
You need to narrow your goals as much as possible."
