Chapter 540: Alerting the Snake

Lin Feng picked up a piece of beef for her.

"Don't worry, it's not that easy to kill me. If I don't come out for a while, they won't have a chance to show their faces."

Bai Jing glared at him.

"Okay, you're using me as bait, right?"

Lin Feng took a sip of the wine, closed his eyes and swallowed it with great enjoyment, smacking his lips.

"Please, their target is me."

He knew that although many suspects were thrown into prison, there were always experts who used strange means to avoid the army's searches.

In such an environment, I dare not drink too much and have to stay alert at all times.

After they ate for a while, Bai Jing put down her chopsticks.

"Brother, I want to know what position you will assign to Zhu Jie?"

Lin Feng smiled: "Are you still worried about him?"

"I just want to compare. Talent is hard to come by."

Lin Feng sighed: "Alas, we now have so many prefectures and counties, and the gap is huge. The work of talent reserve is still lagging behind."

Through the window of the pub, I saw a young couple quarreling on the street.

"Zhu Jie can be any of the prefectural governors, inspectors, or military commanders, whatever. He can choose whatever he wants."

"You were very generous to him."

"It all depends on your attitude. Zhu Jie has made great contributions. It's okay to be a little more lenient."

Bai Jing also turned her head and followed Lin Feng's gaze to look at the young couple quarreling on the street.

"Brother, do you also envy such a day?"

Lin Feng nodded: "If you have time to argue and get angry, it means your life is not bad, you have enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear, so you can think about higher requirements."

Bai Jing said nothing and just looked at the young couple quietly.

"Think about it yourself, how long has it been since you took me out to a restaurant for a good meal?"

The young wife's voice came into the tavern.

"I'm busy working all day, so I don't have time to eat with you."

The husband explained impatiently.

"You have another woman outside and have forgotten me long ago."

"Stop making trouble, okay? If you have anything to say, go home and talk."

"Why, are you afraid of losing face? Then tell me clearly, what kind of woman did you find?"

"I don't have any... I'm already too busy with this business."

"Bah, I don't believe it, just smell the smell on you..."

"There's no smell."

The two quarreled and pulled each other, and they were entangled on the street.

During the struggle, the woman touched something and asked loudly.

"Hey, what do you have on you? Is it a rouge box? Let me see it."

The man tried his best to avoid the question: "What rouge box? That's the silver given by the shopkeeper."

"Then why are you hiding? Let me see."

"I can't look at it. The shopkeeper wants me to spend money on the materials, and I can't afford even a little less."

"I've seen a lot, what are you afraid of?"

The two continued to pull.

The man tried his best to hide, but the woman kept chasing him and trying to catch him.

After circling three times and two times, he was getting closer and closer to the tavern window.

Bai Jing found it very interesting. A smile played on her face, and she supported her head with her hands, as if she was completely mesmerized.

Lin Feng also picked up the wine glass, but forgot to drink it. He just stared blankly at the young couple quarreling.

Pei Qiyin, who was standing on the side of the wine table, stared coldly at the man and woman outside the window. His bright black eyes moved from time to time, observing the situation around him.

The young couple was still a few steps away from the tavern window.

The woman found an opportunity, grabbed the man's sleeve, and reached her other hand into the man's arms.

The woman scolded, "If you won't show me, there must be a ghost."

The man struggled to break free, but he used too much force and stumbled into the window of the tavern.

Lin Feng and Bai Jing were sitting steadily in the tavern, and the wine glass in Lin Feng's hand did not move at all.

But the man's action of bumping into the window caused the people who seemed to be strolling around and the people setting up stalls on the street to move.

Several people suddenly stood up, some holding weapons in their hands.

They all stared at the two men and women nervously.

The man who hit the window did not behave abnormally. He just turned around awkwardly and continued to avoid the woman's scratching.

Then the two of them chased each other and ran away, gradually moving away from the window of the tavern.

Lin Feng's eyes moved and he suddenly smiled.

"Good trick, it exposed a lot of my people."

Pei Qiyin also said: "They can't escape suspicion."

Bai Jing asked in surprise: "I didn't do anything?"

"It's just to alert the enemy."

Lin Feng said this lightly, raised his glass and took a sip of wine.

Bai Jing quickly said, "Why don't you catch them quickly?"

"In terms of experience in the martial arts world, we are far behind them. There is no doubt that these two people have no problems with their identities."

Lin Feng said, shaking his head.

Pei Qiyin sighed softly: "It's quiet here, we have to change places."

"They are quite cautious. They dare to engage in such a livelihood and yet they cherish their lives so much."

"Anyone who dares to take this order must be a master with great reputation."

Pei Qiyin pondered.

"If you're a desperate person and you're afraid of death, don't come here. This money is hard to come by. I'm afraid you won't live to spend it."

Bai Jing looked confused: "What are you two talking about?"

Lin Feng waved his hand.

"Forget it, I suddenly lost interest in fishing, let's go back."

Seeing that the other party was so cunning, Lin Feng was worried that Bai Jing would be in danger, so he gave up the idea of ​​continuing.

They had just returned to the government office when Zhao Shuo suddenly ran in from outside.

"Brother, the emperor's decree has arrived, promoting you."

Lin Feng looked at Zhao Shuo's excited smiling face in surprise.

"Oh, how is that possible? Master Wan wouldn't agree to that."

"It's true, big brother, take a look."

Zhao Shuo walked a few steps to the desk, unfolded the scroll of brocade in his hand, and placed it in front of Lin Feng.

Lin Feng took a quick look and said, "Deputy Commander of the Imperial Guard? Or Marquis Jingguo?"

He looked up at Zhao Shuo in surprise: "Is your emperor so generous?"

Zhao Shuo scratched his head and said, "I'm a little puzzled, but this imperial edict is absolutely genuine."

"Who sent it?"

"Oh, this guy is known to Big Brother."

Zhao Shuo turned around and shouted to Cheng Liang, "Cheng Liang, let him in."

Following the shout, a man dressed as a eunuch strode into the lobby of the government office.

He walked a few steps away and bowed to Lin Feng.

"General Lin, how are you?"

Lin Feng looked at it carefully for a few seconds and a smile appeared on his face.

"Eunuch Han is still as charming as ever."

"We also have to thank General Lin for giving us the chance to live. We are deeply grateful."

"Okay, okay. Please take a seat, Eunuch Han."

This person was none other than Han Su, the imperial guard sent by Concubine Du to the Qingshui Army to assassinate Lin Feng.

Lin Feng saw Han Su sitting down and took the imperial edict in his hand.

"This was awarded by the Emperor himself?"

Han Su hesitated for a moment and said, "I didn't see the emperor issue an edict. I just got it from Boss Zhu."

"Boss Zhu?"

Zhao Shuo quickly explained: "Brother, it's the chief eunuch Zhu Qisheng. All the eunuchs in the palace obey his orders."

Han Su added: "A favorite of the emperor."

Lin Feng nodded: "It seems that this imperial edict is a bit strange. The emperor's attitude has changed too much."
