I saw Chen Yan walking towards a table of diners, and one of them secretly handed him something.

The table was located in the blind spot of Luo Lanyuan's vision. Luo Lanyuan couldn't see what they were doing, but could only see Chen Yan chatting with that person, then turned around and left.

It was almost time for lunch, and the people in the restaurant gradually became thinner. Luo Lanyuan put down his chopsticks, and followed Chen Yan downstairs.

At this time, there were still many people in the leisure area. Luo Lanyuan followed Chen Yan secretly, keeping a few meters away from the crowd.

Chen Yan quickly walked out of the leisure area and walked all the way to the business area.

The flow of people in the commercial area is much less than that in the leisure area. In order not to be discovered by Chen Yan, Luo Lanyuan can only keep a longer distance, so as not to be too close to be discovered and not to be lost.

Following Chen Yan's turn and turn for more than half an hour like this, Luo Lanyuan felt more and more that something was wrong. Looking at Chen Yan's direction, it turned out to be the route out of the city.

Chen Yan went out with Jiang Liye, is Chen Yan going to find Jiang Liye now?Could it be that Jiang Liye also left the city?But the question is what is he going to do when he is out of town.

Luo Lanyuan was full of questions and curiosity drove him out of the city with Chen Yan.

There were fewer pedestrians and shelters outside the city, Luo Lanyuan used the lightest voice to practice lightness kung fu, and secretly lurked in the trees by the side of the road.

However, Chen Yan's ears were very sharp. Although he didn't look back, his right ear trembled slightly twice.

Luo Lanyuan jumped from one tree to another using lightness kung fu, using the sound of the wind and the branches and leaves of the trees to cover herself.

Finally, Chen Yan came to a relatively spacious open space and stopped.

He squatted down, as if digging something in the soil.

Luo Lanyuan jumped onto the nearest tree, peeping quietly through the gaps in the leaves.

Suddenly, Chen Yan turned his head sharply, threw out a small knife and flew towards Luo Lanyuan's face.

Luo Lanyuan was startled, and hurriedly lowered his head to dodge, but Chen Yan had already drawn his sword and charged up, cutting off the branch where Luo Lanyuan was standing.

Luo Lanyuan couldn't dodge in time, and fell heavily on the ground. He ignored the pain, turned over quickly and stood up, just about to draw out the soft sword at his waist to meet him, but stopped.

There are quite a few people in the capital who use swords, but not many people use soft swords.

The most famous swordsman on the rivers and lakes who uses soft swords is Luo Lanyuan's master, Qin Yi. He has taken in many apprentices during his travels around the world. Lanyuan, and the other is Luo Lanyuan's junior sister, Zhao Xiaorou.

Zhao Xiaorou is a girl, so if she meets a man with a soft sword in the capital, it cannot be someone else except Luo Lanyuan.

Seeing that Chen Yan's sword had pierced in front of his eyes, fortunately Luo Lanyuan's best skill was light kung fu, so he quickly turned over to dodge, picked up a fallen branch from the ground to meet the blow, and then hurriedly used light kung fu to escape.

Chen Yan's sword was fast and accurate. If Luo Lanyuan was not flexible enough, he would have been stabbed like a sieve. He suddenly realized a very important problem. He was still wearing the clothes of a servant in the Xuanyang Palace.

Thinking of this question, Luo Lanyuan was so distracted that Chen Yan's sword cut a hole in his chest.

The book of words he kept in his chest was divided into two halves, and the scattered pages flew all over the sky.

Fortunately, the script was thick enough and did not hurt the flesh. Luo Lanyuan took this opportunity to distance herself from Chen Yan,

Facing the book pages flying all over the sky, Chen Yan was stunned for a second, then quickly reacted, and quickly caught up with Luo Lanyuan.

Luo Lanyuan really didn't expect Jiang Liye's attendants to be so powerful. His lightness kung fu was taught by his father to take him to learn from the shadow guards of the palace in the early years. It stands to reason that the entire imperial city should be Few people's lightness kung fu can match him.

But this Chen Yan not only chased him without any pressure, but also threw hidden weapons at him while chasing him.

The poisoned concealed weapon could directly poison a piece of grass if it fell to the ground, Luo Lanyuan didn't dare to be distracted, and used his peripheral vision to find the escape route.

Chen Yan's attack was too fierce, and he couldn't hold it anymore.

Finally, a creek appeared in front of him. Luo Lanyuan took out the remaining pages of the book in his arms and threw it at Chen Yan. Chen Yan raised his sword to defend. Taking advantage of this gap, Luo Lanyuan plunged into the creek.

Chen Yan looked at the straw hat that fell on the bank, stood in front of the creek for a while expressionlessly, picked up the straw hat, turned and left.

Luo Lanyuan lurked at the bottom of the creek and swam towards the capital for a while. After making sure that Chen Yan hadn't caught up with him, she went ashore in embarrassment.

He was drenched all over, his straw hat was lost somewhere when he ran away, and the cloth on his chest was scratched again, so he definitely couldn't walk back to the capital in this state.

Today is really not going well, he shouldn't follow Chen Yan, now even how to go back to the palace is a problem, Luo Lanyuan thought to himself.

Luo Lanyuan took off his coat and spread it on the stone to dry, in order to recover/strength by the way.

He was going to squat at the main gate of the capital for the caravan returning to the city before [-] pm. At this time, the gate of the imperial city was almost closed, and the inspection was the most lax. He should be able to sneak in.

At night, Jiang Liye and Chen Yan rode back to the palace.

"Okay, now tell me what happened to you this afternoon." Jiang Liye said.

"...I went to meet Young Master Han's people at Baiweilou, and the person who handed over gave me the token." Chen Yan still had that emotionless voice: "After I left Baiweilou, I felt that I was being followed. "

"The subordinate led the man out of the city, ready to kill or arrest him, but he didn't expect that man to be very good at light kung fu, so he ran away."

"What kind of person is that?"

"The man is not tall, and he wears a straw hat, which is so tight that he couldn't see his face clearly." Chen Yan pointed to the straw hat on the horse's head: "This is the one that fell on the bank when he jumped into the river to escape. .”

"Continue talking." Jiang Liye looked forward, and only glanced at the straw hat from the corner of his eye.

"The most important thing is that he is wearing the clothes of a prince's servant." Chen Yan's usually cold voice carried a hint of sternness.

"Oh?" The corners of Jiang Liye's mouth twitched slightly: "You should know all the servants in the palace, don't you see who it is?"

Chen Yan lowered his head slightly: "The subordinate is incompetent, and he couldn't recognize who it was. That person is extremely cunning. It can be seen that he has deliberately changed his walking posture. It is impossible to judge who it is from his height and posture."

"This is a bit difficult." Although Jiang Liye said it was difficult, there was a playful smile on the corner of his mouth. He was really curious, who dared to investigate him.

"By the way, son..." Chen Yan took the rein with one hand, and took out a pile of shredded papers from his arms with the other: "I tore his clothes when I was chasing that man, and these things fell out of his arms. It looks like a book, but it was torn apart by my sword."

Jiang Liye took it and took a look. It was a very popular vernacular book, "Strange Tales of a Troubled Times", which can be bought at the Mingde Bookstore in the capital.

For some reason, he felt that this book looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere in the palace.
