Lin Sishen stroked the dagger on his waist, looked at Li Luo with a smile, winked and said jokingly: "Can't I come to look for you just because I miss you?"

Li Luo naturally knew that she was joking. She lowered her eyes and said angrily, "Have you stayed in Ningxiang Tower for a long time?"

Lin Sishen picked up the tea cup, took a long sip, and said thoughtfully: "Speaking of which, I haven't been to Ningxiang Tower in a few days."

Li Luo picked up the teapot and refilled a cup of tea for her: "I hear your tone, do you want to go?"

Lin Sishen raised his eyebrows and cried out, "You're wronged. I can't avoid that place of sensuality and sensuality."

There was a smile on Li Luo's pure face, and she hummed softly: "Since I came to the capital, I have heard a lot about Mr. Lin's romantic affairs in teahouses and taverns."

The moonlight outside the house filtered through the window and cast a hazy white light on the ground. The breeze blew the candlelight on the table flickering. Lin Sishen yawned for no reason. She smiled and defended: "I just heard it.

You also know that the most indispensable thing in the capital is all kinds of strange and bizarre rumors."

Li Luo smiled and said nothing. She turned her head and looked at Lin Sishen's handsome androgynous face. For a moment, she was distracted and felt that her face looked like the beauty picture painted by Li Xiucai at the painting stall yesterday.

The eyebrows are picturesque, the skin is like snow, the green hair is like a waterfall, and the lips are red. Under the dim candlelight, the slightly heroic face looks even softer.

She doesn't look like a man, she clearly looks like a stunning beauty wearing men's clothing.

Li Luo stared at Lin Sishen's face for a long time without regaining consciousness. On the contrary, after Lin Sishen noticed her gaze, he clenched his fist uncomfortably to his lips and coughed lightly.

Li Luo came back to her senses, she lowered her eyes and smiled softly: "Before coming to the capital, I thought that all the men in the capital were as handsome as you."

Lin Sishen's heart skipped a beat, fearing that Li Luo would doubt her identity, so she laughed heartily and said to herself: "I am the most famous pretty boy in the capital, and I am the only one who has no semicolon."

Li Luo smiled faintly and looked out the window: "If you don't leave, it will be dawn."

"Indeed." Lin Sishen put down the tea cup, stood up, took out a money bag from his waist, and put it on the table: "This is this month's reward. Please continue to help me keep an eye on Liu Ce. I'm afraid he will still be there in the next few days.

Go to Qingguo Duke's Mansion."

Li Luo looked at the bulging money bag on the table and frowned slightly: "Actually, you don't have to..."

Lin Sishen interrupted her and said sternly: "In Shangyan Shang, you are the third-ranked assassin in the Jin Kingdom. I'm afraid the remuneration will be insufficient."

Li Luo accepted the silver coins on the table. She lowered her head and couldn't see clearly the expression on her face: "It's easy to work for you. I've never taken less money, but I've never killed anyone."

Lin Sishen stood up and said with a smile: "Although you are an assassin, you are very good at tracking. The rules set by your master did not say that you must accept the murder business."

Li Luo stood up, with a faint smile on her face: "So taking over Mr. Lin's business is the easiest."

After saying that, she gestured: "I'll take you out."

The two of them walked to the courtyard gate one after another. Lin Sishen walked in front and stepped out of the threshold. Li Luoyi did not leave from the door. She just looked at Lin Sishen's back. Seeing that Lin Sishen was about to jump away, she suddenly lowered her head.

He asked in a loud voice: "How long can I do anything for you?"

Under the moonlight, Li Luoyi was standing by the door. Her face was beautiful and fair, her figure was soft and graceful, and there was always a smile on her lips. She didn't look like an assassin who was ruthless in killing people, but rather like a gentle lady waiting to be called.

Graceful woman.

But Lin Sishen knew that beneath her harmless face, there were countless hidden weapons coated with poison hidden in her sleeves. As long as she wanted to, even Lin Sishen had no confidence that she could dodge her blow.

She is like a pure epiphyllum under the moonlight. As beautiful as she looks, she is also deadly.

Lin Sishen stopped and turned around slowly. Only her dark eyes were revealed on her face covered by a black scarf. She asked, "How long do you want to take?"

Li Luo looked at her steadily, and after a long time he slowly said: "The longer the better."

Lin Sishen had a spiritual understanding, and she said with a hint of meaning: "Don't worry, I won't let you go easily."

As soon as she finished speaking, she stepped up on her tiptoes and disappeared silently from Li Luo's eyes almost in the blink of an eye.

After returning to the General's Mansion, Lin Sishen took off her night clothes, put on her middle coat, lit the candlestick by the window, and then slowly opened the bamboo tube Liu Ce gave her, revealing a piece of wavy yellow paper inside.

Lin Sishen unfolded the yellow paper in front of the candlelight, with several rows of tiny characters written densely on it in black ink.

Lin Sishen soon finished reading. During this period, her expression did not change, except for the last breath she took.

After reading it, she raised her hand expressionlessly, threw the yellow paper into the candlelight, and watched coldly as the paper was licked by the greedy tongues of flames, and finally burned out, turning into a handful of black ash and scattered on the ground.

In the court, only the second prince could rival the crown prince. The emperor was old but still refused to delegate power. He secretly favored the fight between the second prince and the crown prince in order to consolidate his own power.

Two years ago, the second prince planned to meet Lin Sishen in private once. At that time, it happened that General Lin was publicly supporting him in the court.

Originally, Lin Sishen thought that the second prince came to her just to use her to convince General Lin, but she didn't expect that the second prince didn't say anything and only gave her a token and news about a person.

At first, Lin Sishen did not believe that the man was still alive, until the second prince sent someone to take her secretly to the border of Jin and Laos. She saw the living person and understood the second prince's intention.

The second prince did not use that person to blackmail General Lin, but found her. That was because the second prince had known for a long time that she, Lin Sishen, was not a useless loser, but a chess piece that could be used for a long time.

In the past two years, Lin Sishen had indeed secretly done a lot for the second prince.

The prince seemed wise, but in fact he was eager for quick success and easily provoked to embarrass others. Although the second prince was quite talented and ambitious, Lin Sishen had already discovered in the past two years that he was narrow-minded and intolerant.

Neither of them was a good quarrel, but General Lin chose the prince who looked gentle and elegant. As long as he chose the prince, it would be impossible for the general's palace to escape unscathed from the future battle for the heir.

Lin Sishen worked for the second prince, firstly for that person's safety, and secondly to leave a way out for the general's palace.

But now the situation is getting more and more dangerous, and the country of Laos in the distance seems to be ready to make trouble. The General's Mansion is like a small boat in the waves. If you are not careful, it will be overturned, and there will be no way to turn around.

Lin Sishen did not work wholeheartedly for the second prince. She secretly recruited an assassin organization, which was the Shadow Hall where Li Luo belonged.

The battles between the Jianghu forces and the court are always inextricably linked.

But Lin Sishen's biggest hidden danger now is Shen Qing, who is temporarily staying in the general's mansion.

The second prince asked her to find an opportunity to let the Ninth Prince break off the engagement, so as to sever the marriage between the General's Palace and the Ninth Prince. Of course, this was also her purpose.
