"That's not a lot..." Abao said dryly.
Shen Lian smiled: "It's not much, and I have already prepared some big gifts for these secret envoys. They can't make any waves."
"It's just that it's not time to deal with them yet, and these secret envoys are dangerous when they are mysterious, but once they are known to us, they will be of no use. Instead, they will use themselves to tell us that we are not Less secrets.”
"Anyway..."
Shen Lian patted Ah Bao on the shoulder and said with a smile: "The devil is as high as one foot, and the Tao is as high as one foot. Chang'an is the territory of us Tang Dynasty people, and it is not their turn to be arrogant."
Abao blinked his eyes, his admiration for his master was like an endless stream of water.
He has been following Shen Lian almost all the time.
He never leaves Shen Lian no matter what he does, and now Shen Lian also intends to train him, so he doesn't hide anything from him.
But that's it... He didn't even know when his master had prepared a big gift for those secret envoys.
When did you know which country's envoy had someone secretly hiding behind you?
This gap was really so big that it made him despair, and it also made him admire Shen Lian even more.
He took a deep breath and said, "Is the murderer really from the Six Kingdoms?"
Shen Lian narrowed his eyes, smiled, and said, "Yes or no, does it matter?"
Abao was startled.
Shen Lian waved his hand: "Okay, if you really want to know, then think about it yourself. Although we have no direct clues, logic is a good thing. Everything will conform to a certain logic."
"If you can think through the logic, you can also know who is the real murderer."
"Okay, it's getting late, let's go back and rest."
After Shen Lian finished speaking, he left directly.
Xu Gou, however, stopped in place, his eyes full of thinking.
"logic?"
Abao whispered to himself.
After Shen Lian gave Abao enough reminders, he stopped delaying.
He intended to train A Bao, so he deliberately whetted A Bao's appetite at this moment, hoping that Xu Gou could take over some important tasks quickly.
Shen Lian stretched, yawned, and walked on the deserted street when he suddenly said, "Let me keep an eye on someone."
Brush it.
A figure appeared directly next to Shen Lian.
Zhang He, the heir to the bandit family, raised his hands to Shen Lian and said, "Who?"
Shen Lian narrowed his eyes: "Envoy from Japan."
"Japanese envoy?" Zhang He was a little surprised.
He thought he was at least as good as an envoy from Nanzhao.
But Japan...can't be considered a powerful country, right?
What's there to keep an eye on as an envoy from a small country?
Shen Lian seemed to understand what Zhang He was thinking, and he said calmly: "Don't underestimate any envoy."
"To be honest, even I almost ignored the Japanese envoy."
"In fact, he is too low-key. He doesn't fight or grab. If he stands in a crowd, he can't be found at all."
"If I hadn't discovered the waist card of the Japanese Ninja Village this time, I would have almost forgotten about him."
"And this... is very wrong."
Zhang He looked at Shen Lian doubtfully: "Why is something wrong?"
Shen Lian said: "Think about it, what are the benefits of these envoys coming to the Tang Dynasty, so those envoys from small countries are trying their best to increase their presence."
"Why did they grab the front yard and why were they driven away from the back? It's because they want everyone to know about them, so that they will be thought of when distributing benefits, and they will allocate enough."
"But the Japanese envoy, on the contrary, kept a low profile and was a little too low-key. As the saying goes, there must be monsters when things go wrong. Maybe the conspiracy he has in mind is more terrifying than Tubo and Dashi."
"Therefore, when I keep an eye on him, I feel that he is definitely not simple. Many of His Highness's subordinates are not in Chang'an City, and others may not be able to keep an eye on him. Only you can make me feel at ease."
As soon as Zhang He heard Shen Lian say that he only believed in himself, he felt extremely excited.
He patted his heart and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Shen, leave this matter to me! I will never let the Japanese envoy escape from my sight!"
Shen Lian nodded slightly and was about to laugh when his steps suddenly stopped.
Zhang He almost bumped into Shen Lian's back. He raised his head in confusion: "Master Shen?"
Shen Lian narrowed his eyes and looked forward.
Zhang He subconsciously looked up.
And the next moment--
"who!?"
He suddenly shouted.
In front of them, they saw a hazy figure standing there in a burst of mist.
The figure looked at them quietly. If Shen Lian hadn't stopped suddenly, Zhang He wouldn't have been able to spot this person so quickly under the thick fog.
And at this moment, I heard the sound of a urn coming from the opposite side: "Tian Quan."
"Tianquan!?"
The moment Zhang He heard the name, he got goosebumps.
He quickly pulled out the horizontal sword, and with the sword's light flashing, he pointed it nervously at Yuwen Chengdu opposite, his eyes sharp and extremely vigilant!
"Master Shen, be careful!" Zhang He said nervously.
In fact, the name Tianquan puts too much pressure on Zhang He!
In Zhang He's opinion, this guy who came back from the dead was simply a scourge for thousands of years, and he was dead but not dead!
"Jiang He, don't worry."
But at this time, Shen Lian's voice rang out. He patted Zhang He on the shoulder and asked Zhang He to relax.
Shen Lian stepped forward slowly and walked in front of Zhang He. He squinted at the figure in the mist and said calmly: "If Tian Quan had harmed my thoughts, Shen Lian, he wouldn't be standing here waiting for me so openly. , wouldn’t it be nice to attack her secretly?”
"So since Tianquan dares to wait for me here, it means that at least for now, he has no intention of harming me."
Zhang He instinctively believed what Shen Lian said.
But in my heart, I was still a little worried.
After all, Tianquan already has a stereotype in his mind.
This is not a good person, he is an insidious, cunning and unpredictable thief!
"I feel honored to be trusted by you, Prince Chu Mansion Shen Lian."
At this time, the voice from the other side came again.
Shen Lian chuckled and said lightly: "It's not that I trust you, but that I have confidence in my own judgment. Tianquan, this is the essential difference."
"Ah."
Tianquan laughed, but did not argue again.
Shen Lian looked at Tianquan and said, "Why are you standing so far away? And the voice seems to have changed. Is it because you are afraid of being seen by me? Or is your throat broken and your voice has changed?"
Tian Quanquan still stood there without any response to Shen Lian's words.
He is also a smart person, and he has fought against Shen Lian once.
I know how terrifying Shen Lian is.
He knew that every word Shen Lian said might be a test for him, and every response he gave might lead Shen Lian to catch the key points and deduce his situation.
Even if he is careful enough, sometimes he is overwhelmed by his IQ and makes Tian Quan powerless.
He thought that his previous plan had no flaws, but Shen Lian was able to find a breakthrough.
The lesson he learned that time made him always vigilant towards Shen Lian, and he would never say anything he shouldn't have said.
After all, he can come back from the dead this time. If there is a next time, Shen Lian will never give himself such an opportunity again.
He can't gamble, and he doesn't dare to gamble.
When Shen Lian saw Tianquan didn't respond to him, he sighed in his heart. After dying once, Tianquan had gained a lot of memory.
He chuckled lightly and didn't care.
Since testing fails, just ask directly.
Shen Lian looked at Tianquan and said, "It's late at night. Instead of going back to sleep, you're waiting for me here. Don't you just miss me and want to see me, Shen Lian?"
Zhang He's heart moved and he quickly looked at Tianquan.
Tianquan said angrily: "Shen Lian, you are so smart, you should be able to guess the reason why I came to you, right?"
Shen Lian smiled and said lightly: "Wanbang is coming to court?"
"Really smart."
Tianquan nodded with emotion: "I really can't hide anything from you."
Shen Lian laughed and continued: "Are you trying to tell me that Beichen colluded with certain envoys? For example, Nanzhao?"
"Do you know Nanzhao?" Tianquan's voice changed for the first time.
Shen Lian said calmly: "I, Shen Lian, know a lot. When you died, I tricked Beichen very hard and got a lot of confidential information about the Beidou Society. I knew that Nanzhao was already under the control of the Beidou Society. He is in trouble, so the envoys sent by Nanzhao this time must have something to do with Beichen."
Tianquan was silent for a long time.
He couldn't help but shook his head and said with emotion: "It's really something you can do!"
"The Beidou Society is extremely mysterious and powerful. Even though I have been in it for so many years, I still haven't mastered many secrets. But you were able to cause Beichen such a huge loss in a short period of time and still get these secrets. Shen Lian...you really did not disappoint me."
Shen Lian shook his head and said: "Don't tell me, I have a very good relationship with you. I haven't let you down yet... What I did was for myself and the country of the Tang Dynasty. It has nothing to do with you."
Tian Quan chuckled: "Whether it has anything to do with me or not, if you can make Beichen suffer, that's a good thing for me."
He took a deep breath and said, "Okay, let's get down to business. If we meet here for too long, we will attract the attention of the Beidou Club."
"Beidou Society has been passed down for thousands of years, and its heritage is far beyond your imagination. Your previous dealings with Beichen did cause Beidou Society to lose a lot of strength, but that was not enough to break Beidou Society's strength."
"So there are still many spies from the Beidou Society in Chang'an City, so I'll keep the story short."
He looked at Shen Lian and said, "I came to you because I have two things to tell you."
"First, Beichen is indeed related to the envoy coming to Tang Dynasty this time. He also has a secret plan. After all, the mission of Beidou Society is to control the general situation of the world. There is no doubt that the envoy coming to Tang Dynasty this time is enough to influence the overall situation of the world. !”
"Therefore, the Beidou Society will definitely put in a lot of effort, and Beichen will definitely do it himself. However, Beichen and Nanzhao should not have much to do with each other."
Shen Lian raised his eyebrows.
Tianji said: "Nanzhao has been controlled by Tianshu and Tianxuan. According to the rules of the Beidou Society, Beichen can only let Kaiyang help him complete certain tasks, but he will never control Nanzhao personally, because this will involve Kaiyang’s bottom line.”
"so….…"
He took a deep breath and said: "Beichen must be secretly controlling other envoys. Perhaps, he will use the puppet method to control the envoys of a certain country. He may have disguised himself as an envoy of a certain country, but which country or even which countries are they? Envoy, I don’t know, you need to find it out yourself.”
"second……."
Tian Quan looked at Shen Lian and said, "Let's join forces this time to deal with Beichen!"
"You alone may not be able to really hurt Beichen, not to mention that there are so many envoys entangled with you this time. Even though you are as smart as a demon, there are too many troubles that will eventually hinder your hands and feet. "
"And I am very familiar with Beichen and the Beidou Society. I also have my own channels to know some of the Beidou Society's secrets, so this time I will cooperate with you. You are in the light and I am in the dark. The two of us join forces, and I I believe...even Beichen will definitely not be able to escape from your hands!"
Tianquan is very confident.
She knew how terrifying Shen Lian was in Prince Chu's Mansion.
He also knows what he is capable of!
Although Beichen is very cautious and difficult to deal with, but if he and Shen Lian join forces, even Beichen, he believes there will be no problems!
When Shen Lian heard Tianquan's words, he was not in a hurry to give an answer.
He looked at Tian Quan, pondered for a moment, and then said calmly: "How can I trust you? In my heart, even though we have only met you once, you are not a very honest and trustworthy person."
Tianquan looked deeply at Shen Lian through the mist. He took a deep breath and said, "I will prove myself with practice, Shen Lian... You also know what I am capable of, and you should understand too. Cooperate with me, and there will be no rivals for us in this world."
"Hopefully, regarding the Beichen issue, we can put aside our grudges for the time being."
After saying that, Tianquan suddenly turned around and disappeared into the haze in a few steps.
Zhang He hurriedly chased after him and returned quickly, saying, "It's gone."
Shen Lian was not surprised.
Since Tianquan dared to come, he was sure to leave quickly.
Zhang He saw that Shen Lian's expression was calm and he didn't seem to be entangled at all, so he couldn't help but ask: "Master Shen, do you really want to cooperate with Tianquan?"
Shen Lian laughed: "Cooperation? Zhang He, do you really think Tianquan wants to cooperate closely with me?"
"Isn't it?" Zhang He was stunned.
Shen Lian said meaningfully: "This is just using each other. It's just to see who's more ruthless and powerful. Whoever is stronger will take everything!"
"Whoever is weak...catch them all in one fell swoop."
Two people with a grudge will never put aside all their prejudices to cooperate, even if they have a common enemy.
Even if they cooperate, they will definitely calculate against each other to maximize their personal interests.
So Shen Lian didn't have any beautiful ideas in fairy tales at all.
There is no trust in Tianquan at all.
Of course, this distrust is only directed at Tianquan, not at the hatred between Tianji and Beichen.
He knew that Tianquan's desire to deal with Beichen and Beidou Society was only stronger than his own. After all, the existence of Beidou Society and Beichen was the most dangerous to Tianquan's life.
Therefore, as long as Tianquan is given a chance, he will definitely seize it.
