Chapter 6 The depths of the imperial capital

When he said this, Lin Feng also bent down and grabbed the man's collar and lifted him up.

But I saw that the man looked at him without any fear. Even at the end of his life, the panic in this man's heart had long disappeared, and he actually looked at Lin Feng and smiled.

"Hehehehe..." The man's laughter was not very clear, as if something was stuck in his throat.

Lin Feng was stunned. Just as he was about to ask another question, he saw that green blood had emerged from the man's mouth. He realized that something was wrong and quickly spread his mental power, trying to lock in the other people who followed him again. However, as soon as the mental power was spread, Lin Feng was disappointed to find that the other spies who followed him had disappeared at some point.

He retracted his mental power and placed his eyes on the man's body in his hand. He found that the man had already rolled his eyes, the green blood in his mouth fell to the ground, and a burst of blue smoke rose.

"Bastard!" Lin Feng couldn't help but curse, throwing the man who was taking poison in his hand aside, spreading his mental power and sweeping around. After not finding anyone, he thought about it for a moment, walked to the corpse, trying to find some valuable clues on him.

However, Lin Feng searched almost all over his body, and except for finding a few silver coins, he found no valuable items at all.

After a moment of silence, Lin Feng stood up and looked at the corpse for the last time. He then endured the anger in his heart and walked out of the alley and towards his mansion.

Along the way, he was in a bad mood. He originally felt that returning to the imperial capital this time was extraordinary because of Dandy's hint, but he didn't expect that as soon as he walked into the gate of the imperial capital, he actually met a group of people following him, which made him feel a little more solemn again.

But even though he was solemn and solemn, since he had no idea about it, Lin Feng didn't want to waste all his energy on it. While quickly rushing back to his mansion, he spread his mental power at all times and observing the crowds coming and going around him.

I don’t know if it was because of the exposure of my identity. On the way back, Lin Feng did not notice the person who was following him anymore.

When he walked to the Duke of Snow Demon Wolf's mansion, the guards guarding far away recognized Lin Feng and quickly shouted to Lin Feng excitedly: "Sir, Guard, Lord Duke is back."

Lin Feng sighed when he heard the voices of the two guards, and quickly retracted his energy and walked forward quickly. He had just walked for less than two steps. He saw Craul walk out of the mansion.

Crowel followed the guard's gaze and saw Lin Feng at first sight. While surprise appeared on his face, he quickly walked towards Lin Feng.

"Sir, you are finally back!" Crower's surprise voice was obviously anxious. He was still wearing heavy armor. There was still a hint of fatigue on his face. It was obvious that he had never taken time to change it after he came back.

After arriving at Lin Feng, I saw that Lin Feng's face was a little unfavorable, and I couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Sir, what happened to you?"

"Let's talk about it when you go back." Lin Feng waved his hand and gave him a cautious look. Crowel saw it and immediately understood. Although he didn't ask anything more, his face became much more serious.

"Clauer, did you notice anything when you returned to the imperial capital?" Lin Feng asked in a low voice while walking into the mansion.

Crower thought for a moment, shook his head slightly, and whispered: "After we came back, we have been waiting for you in the mansion. Not long after, Duke Anne learned about your return. He first came over, but found that you were not in the mansion, so he went back and asked us to inform her when you came back."

Lin Feng knew that so many people had returned to the imperial capital in a mighty way, so he nodded and asked again: "Where is the other side of the palace?"

This time, Crower shook his head without any hesitation, "No news."

Hearing this answer, Lin Feng couldn't help frowning. His convoy had returned to the imperial capital for so long, and Dandy could not have known it, but he had not sent anyone to summon him to the palace yet... What was he thinking?

However, there was no news of summoning him, and Lin Feng, who was anxious to get along, breathed a sigh of relief. After entering his mansion, Lin Feng glanced at the busy servant and couldn't help asking, "Where is Mali? Why didn't you see him?"

"Sir, since we returned to the mansion, we have not seen you back. I discussed with Chief Marley and decided not to disturb others to go out and see if we could find you. At the beginning, I went out first. Chief Marley stayed at the mansion. When I came back, I didn't find you, so he went out immediately."

Speaking of this, Crower looked up at the sky: "The time we agreed on is coming soon, and Chief Marley should be back soon."

"Well, then you go down and rest for a while. When Marley comes back, you can go to my study with him." Lin Feng nodded and was about to walk straight towards his room.

Crowel responded, and was about to turn around and leave, but suddenly he thought of something and asked quickly: "Sir, do you want to send someone to inform Duke Anne?"

Lin Feng stopped after hearing the sound, pondered for a moment, turned around and said, "You don't have to worry about this, go down and rest."

"Yes." Crower didn't dare to say anything more, and then turned around and left.

While walking towards his room, Lin Feng was thinking about whether to send someone to notify Annie. To be honest, he had been separated from Annie for so long and had arrived at the imperial capital from Talvo. Although he was a little nervous because he couldn't figure out the situation in the imperial capital, seeing Annie was also the most anticipated thing for him.

Even, in order to return to the imperial capital this time, no matter how tight the time is, he still asked someone to prepare a generous gift to Annie. Moreover, Annie had come to him a long time ago, and if she didn't send someone to notify her at this time, Annie would definitely be extremely worried.

But this time when he returned to the imperial capital, Lin Feng couldn't help but hesitate.

Now that Anne is notified, Anne will definitely come to find her immediately, but who is behind those spies and still doesn't know what intentions she has. What if Anne encounters danger here?

After thinking about it all the way, Lin Feng decided to send someone to inform Annie. Anyway, with his current strength, there are probably not many people in the Sanctuary who can hurt him, so can't protect Annie? Besides, Annie might have learned some news from Robert...

So, Lin Feng found Bond and asked him to send someone to inform Anne with his gift. By the way, he also specifically reminded Bond to be more careful along the way and pay attention to the surrounding situation at any time.

Then Lin Feng returned to his room first, took out some electric eels to replenish the Dou Qi and mental power consumed along the way, and finally washed his body and confirmed that the Dou Qi and mental power were still growing slowly automatically and then he came to the study.

As soon as he walked into the study, Lin Feng found that Marley and Crowl had been waiting for him inside. Seeing Marley who had not been missing for a long time, Lin Feng couldn't help feeling better, and a smile appeared on his face: "Malley. I feel relieved when I see you are safe."

Marley's face was a little tired, and she was covered in leather armor with a thick cotton coat. The time she was alone in the imperial capital, the tenderness on his face had faded a lot. His personality became much more stable. When he saw Lin Feng, a warm smile appeared on his tired face: "The imperial capital has always been peaceful, and the mansion is peaceful."

Then, the two hugged each other and talked affectionately for a few words, making Crower's eyes full of envy, but Crower knew that he would not receive such treatment, so he watched quietly without interrupting.

Lin Feng also understood that it was not the time to reminisce about the past, so he talked with Mary for a while, and after each of them sat down, he took the initiative to get to the topic: "Mali, has anything happened during the period when I was not in the imperial capital?"

"No." Marley looked a little confused, obviously not knowing what Dandy wrote to Lin Fengxin.

Lin Feng did not hide it. In front of the two, he briefly explained the matter after going to Talvo and the content in the letter, and finally added: "Although Your Majesty did not state it clearly in the letter, something big must have happened. Have you never heard of any news in the imperial capital?"

After listening to Lin Feng's story, Mali frowned and thought for a while, and finally said tentatively: "About more than a month ago, His Majesty dismissed several old ministers in the court... Is this valuable news?"

When Lin Feng heard this, he calculated in his mind that apart from the time Dandy sent the Imperial Guards to Talvo to deliver the letter and that he had spent about more than a month on the way. At that time, Dandy should have just written a letter to him, and at the same time dismissed several old ministers in the court... Could it be that this matter also has something to do with him?

After thinking for a while, Lin Feng felt that he could not connect the doubts in his heart, so he asked again: "Apart from this matter, are there any other things happening?"

This time, Marley thought for a long time, but in the end, she shook her head with certainty.

Lin Feng couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It seems that Dandy's confidentiality work is not as good as usual...

What exactly happened that was worth blocking the news like this?

Just as he was thinking about it, Crower, who had been watching the side for a long time, saw the two of them being silent at the same time, hesitated for a moment, and asked on his own initiative: "Sir Duke, did you encounter something when you came back from outside?"

After he mentioned this, Lin Feng remembered the incident of being followed by a spy, nodded and said, "Yes, since I entered the gate of the imperial capital, I found that many people were following me in the dark..."

As he said that, Lin Feng said what happened later again, and finally sighed: "The spies were instructed by someone, but there was no clue. However, judging from the fact that I was followed as soon as I entered the city gate, the water in the imperial capital is now incalculable... "

When he heard this, Marley and Crower looked at each other, and couldn't help but take a deep breath, and fell silent at the same time.

Lin Feng looked at the serious look of the two of them, but instead smiled and said, "Don't worry, I've returned to the imperial capital anyway. I'll know what happened tomorrow at the latest. You two will let our people go out for more attention... Well, by the way, don't tell George about this for the time being."

"Yes, I understand." Although the two of them responded in unison, they could see obvious concerns on each other's faces after looking at each other.

Lin Feng wanted to say something, but at this moment, he suddenly heard an angry female voice coming from outside: "Lin Feng!! Come out quickly!!!" (..)
