In an inn two miles outside the capital.
"Your Highness, you can't go alone," Wang Xing stopped Liu Yi who was about to go out.
Liu Yi straightened his clothes and pointed at his face, "Can you still recognize me like this?"
He put on makeup and changed into the clothes of a small vendor in Southern Liang. He was confident that even if he and the Second Princess met on the streets of the capital, the Second Princess would not recognize him.
Wang Xing looked at the bearded Liu Yi and shook his head. Even if he followed Liu Yi every day, he would not recognize him at this moment.
"But Your Highness..."
He was still worried, after all, this was not their territory.
Liu Yi said, "I will go alone and won't attract their attention. Don't worry, I will be back before the city gates close."
After saying that, he strode out.
He was going to do an important thing, to meet the head of the intelligence team stationed in Nanliang by Beiliang, who used the alias Wu Jing and ran a small restaurant. He wanted to take over the people there.
The Beiliang intelligence organization, Black Swan, has always had a single line of communication. Each of their members has his or her own social identity and they do not know each other.
......
In Dongcheng, at Wu Laosan Restaurant, it was not the time for dinner, so there were not many people inside.
Wu Jing was calculating on an abacus when he looked up and saw a man in his twenties coming in.
"Hey, sir, please come in," Wu Jing greeted with a smile.
This person is Liu Yi.
Liu Yi followed Wu Jing in and asked, "Is there a private room?"
"Yes, yes, yes, second floor, please."
Liu Yi followed him upstairs and into a private room. The room was not big, but it was decorated very elegantly. Although small, it had all the necessary facilities.
After Liu Yi sat down, Wu Jing took out the menu and said, "Take a look."
Liu Yi took a quick look and asked, "What kind of chicken do you use in this braised chicken in a pot?"
Wu Jing felt his back tighten when he heard this, and his face changed color. He replied carefully, "It's a stupid chicken raised at home."
"A dumb chicken won't work, we have to use a hairless chicken," Liu Yi replied.
Wu Jing immediately walked to the door, looked around outside, confirmed that there was no one outside, and came in to close the door.
"Your Excellency is polite," Wu Jing saluted.
What they just said was the code for handover.
Wu Jing's term of office has expired, and someone will be coming to replace him soon, the person in front of him. He doesn't know Liu Yi's identity. After they meet today, he will be sent back to Beiliang immediately and will never come back.
"You have worked hard over the years," Liu Yi stood up and returned the greeting.
Wu Jing said "Wait a moment" and went out. After a while, he came back with a small box and said, "This is the list of everyone."
After Liu Yi took it, Wu Jing saluted again and then went out.
......
Half an hour later, Liu Yi came out of Wu Laosan Restaurant and walked out of the city.
Unexpectedly, after just a few steps, I ran into a few drunkards.
When several people met, they bumped into each other accidentally. A fat man on the opposite side came up and grabbed his collar and said, "Are you blind? Why don't you open your eyes and see how you dare to bump into your uncle Bao?"
The smell of alcohol sprayed on my face, but I held it in.
Liu Yi didn't want to cause any more trouble, so he apologized carefully, "I accidentally bumped into you, please forgive me."
"Beat him"
The people on the other side started fighting without thinking.
Liu Yi had some kung fu skills, and when he saw that the opponent was really fighting, he couldn't dodge and had to fight back.
Just as they were fighting fiercely, a shout came from behind.
"Who dares to fight in broad daylight?"
Following the sound, I saw a group of soldiers running towards this side.
"Sir, this kid is blind and bumped into me."
“He was the first to strike.”
"We are good people, sir. You see I have a handsome face, but I never fight."
Everyone was talking at once.
Liu Yi really wanted to curse their ancestors for eighteen generations. They were so shameless.
"The Northern Liang delegation is about to enter the capital. The emperor has ordered that anyone causing trouble will be detained. Everyone who comes will be taken away."
The officer-like official shouted.
"Sir, I am innocent, I am innocent," Liu Yi quickly admitted his mistake.
But the people from the patrol camp ignored him and tied him up in no time.
......
The patrol camp’s prison.
An officer snatched the box from Liu Yi, took a look at it, and threw it on the table in front of him, "Throw it all in."
Liu Yi was so scared that he broke out in a sweat. The box contained top secret information. Fortunately, he didn't ask too much and didn't look at it carefully.
"Sir, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding," Liu Yi grabbed an official and said, "Brother, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, look at this... I'm just a small vendor."
He secretly took off the ring on his finger and put it into the officer's hand with an innocent look on his face.
The officer understood and lowered his voice, "We are not deliberately making things difficult for you. This is just a special period."
"If you help me, I will reward you handsomely later," Liu Yi said with a flattering look on his face.
Alas, even a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake!
The officer looked around and said, "Please allow me to discuss this with our leader."
“Please, please!”
The officer turned around with a smile on his face.
