Chapter 37

Be careless.

This was Lu Xiao, who pretended to be drunk and returned to the room, the only thought in his mind at this time.

Since he worked with Li Dali to chase Wang Jinbao and kill him and buried him, Lu Xiao has been very careful in his heart. Although he is very young, as a member of the Jinyiwei, he is quite familiar with Dongchang, the old opponent. The disappearance of a spy will inevitably make Dongchang alert, and then launch an investigation and take revenge.

Although the Dongchang is much weaker than the previous emperor's dynasty, the lean camel is bigger than the horse, and Lu Xiao dared not contempt for this old opponent of the Jinyiwei. What's more, this incident also involves Li Dali, a fugitive from the court. If the Dongchang is really found, he is afraid that even the Jinyiwei's own people will not be spared.

Therefore, in recent times, he has used various excuses to make his subordinates in Yuelai Inn shrink with all their might, minimizing the possibility of exposure. At the same time, he and Li Dali secretly searched for the traces of the secret agents of the East Factory.

However, as time went by and there was no gain, Lu Xiao's vigilance began to slowly ease. At the same time, the departure of a large number of merchants made the Yao Town quiet, which also made Lu Xiao feel more relaxed, believing that even if the spies from the East Factory had been here, they should have left because they had found nothing.

Therefore, he was in the mood to accept Jiang Qin's invitation, hoping to use this banquet to establish a good relationship with his neighbors around him to cover up the smell of Jinyiwei on Yuelai Inn.

There was nothing unusual about everything after the banquet. Therefore, Lu Xiao, who relaxed and put down his airs to make a fuss with the surrounding merchants, was still a little proud. With the compliments of these people, he took advantage of the situation to drink more drinks.

But at this moment, the few questions that Jiang Qin asked made Lu Xiao, who was already seventy-sixth-intoxicated, wake up instantly as if he was poured from the head by a basin of cold water.

Although he was not sure whether Jiang Qin had accidentally hit him or had a ulterior motive, Lu Xiao did not dare to be careless at all when he involved his life and family. He immediately deliberately took advantage of his drunkenness and followed Jiang Qin's question and then took the opportunity to send a signal to Zhao Qing on the side.

"Zhao Qing, in your opinion, was Jiang Qin unintentional, or was there a ghost in his heart and deliberately trying to inquire about our reality?" Although he did not dare to let Zhao Qing know about Li Dali, Lu Xiao could still ask his opinion on Jiang Qin's issue. After all, although Zhao Qing is his subordinate, he spent much longer together in the Jinyiwei and had a much longer experience than him. Unfortunately, Lu Xiao did not dare to tell Zhao Qing that Jiang Qin might be a secret agent of the East Factory, and Zhao Qing did not think about this at this time.

"This, I am not sure." Zhao Qing hesitated for a moment, finally frowned and replied with some inaccuracy, "However, I think it's okay to be careful. Recently, there are fewer merchants coming and going, so we can also draw enough people."

"Well," Lu Xiao thought for a while and nodded, "We should be careful and order your subordinates to closely monitor Dongsheng Inn to see what Jiang Qin is from."

"yes."

...

Lu Xiao felt a sense of vigilance in his heart. Jiang Qin, who was already on guard to test, was even more vigilant at this time. Compared with Lu Xiao, he was still a little nervous at this time.

In fact, no one dared to touch his family in the East Factory in this small kiln town, but nothing was absolutely true. Jiang Qin was not sure whether the Yuelai Inn, who was still unclear about the details, would have the intention of killing people to silence. At that time, even if the East Factory was furious, found out the truth, and launched bloody revenge, he would not be able to recover from the dead.

But Jiang Qin, who was quite nervous in his heart, had no choice but to make Jiang Ming cheer up and pay attention to the movements outside at this time. He could only pray in his heart that He Er could come back with the ten good men as soon as possible, even if he got nothing this time.

But He Er not only did not come back in time as he thought, but was instead in a tangle.

After discovering the secret code left by Wang Jinbao that represents the "most urgent and most important" information, He Er immediately took action and quickly dug out the note hidden in the dagger sheath buried by Wang Jinbao. Under the torch light, He Er quickly finished reading it carefully. Although Wang Jinbao was unable to complete the message because there was not enough paper, the most important part had been recorded- Yuelai Inn is the secret base of the Jinyiwei.

A simple sentence is enough to explain the true meaning of the words "dong" and "lai" he left on the inkstone, and to explain the reason for Wang Jinbao's murder and the murderer.

Just as Lu Xiao knew that the East Factory was not easy to deal with, He Er knew the difficulty of the Jinyiwei, especially when he succeeded to the throne of the current emperor, he was quite disgusted with the current situation of the East and West Factory.

Therefore, He Er felt that this matter was difficult at this time.

Unlike Wang Jinbao, a young man who has been staying in a remote village and dreams of making great contributions, getting appreciated, returning to the capital, at least leaving Yao Town, and going to the wealthy Jiangnan, although He Er was just hanging out in the small Xin'an County, he could still know a little about the struggles of the big guys in the capital by relying on Jiang Qin, a hundred households.

Therefore, when faced with the same information, Wang Jinbao felt that this was an opportunity, but He Er felt that this was a hot potato.

The Jinyiwei dared to come to this small kiln town to build a secret stronghold, but did the Jinyiwei dare to carry the emperor on his back? Thinking with his toes, the answer was definitely not. Therefore, the Jinyiwei did this with the emperor's permission, at least it was acquiesced. Perhaps the purpose was to check and balance the Dongchang, and at the same time, it might have established its own information channel to avoid being fooled by the officials below and the Dongchang.

Listening in a side way will make you dark, and listening in a side way will make you bright.

Having three news channels that are not subordinate to each other and do not know each other's existence is undoubtedly extremely beneficial for the emperor who has a strong desire to control.

Of course, this is just He Er's brainstorm, but when a person's situation is complicated, the one he trusts most is obviously himself. This is especially true for He Er's Dongchang Station, who is used to dancing on the tip of the knife and seeing life and death.

But this time, He Er was obviously thinking too much. But in fact, he can't blame him. Because of the size of paper, Wang Jinbao still had time to write down the matter about Li Dali. That day, he was going to the counter in the lobby to get paper, which led to a series of events that followed.
