Return of the Swallow

After Qin Yining got married, he understood Cao Yuqing's infatuation and pain even more. But Cao Yuqing is not an ordinary woman, she does not have such a childish attitude, and her free and easy and open-mindedness really makes Qin Yining envious and admired.

"It's really difficult for you." Qin Yining sighed with emotion, but didn't know what to say.

Strictly speaking, Cao Yuqing can be regarded as Sun's love rival. Although Qin Huaiyuan has always treated Cao Yuqing politely, he has not done anything excessive. But if there is a woman beside Pang Xiao who is willing to devote herself to him and always protects her, even if Pang Xiao is not attracted to that woman, as his wife, she should not feel comfortable, right?

However, although I feel uncomfortable, I can't afford to hate such a measured and unpretentious person.

Cao Yuqing seemed to be able to see through what Qin Yining was thinking, and said with a smile: "Don't think too much, this is my duty. After all, I agreed to your father to be his bodyguard. Since he has given orders, he hopes that I will help him." With your help, I will naturally try my best to handle the things he arranged."

Having said that, humans are not grass and trees, so how can they be completely emotionless?

Qin Yining knew that she only said this to make her feel better, so she didn't point it out.

Cao Yuqing said: "While there are no outsiders at this moment, let's talk about serious matters."

"Okay." Qin Yining said, "Do you know what happened to the treasure?"

Cao Yuqing said: "I guess something happened. Because none of the six spies I arranged sent me a reply. I have discussed this matter with your father. Your father thinks that it is certain that the treasure is lost, but in the end Qingtian The alliance temporarily betrays us, or there is a traitor among the silver-faced spies, so the odds are mixed."

Hearing this, Qin Yining said, "So what does Cao Guard think about the chances of betrayal by the silver-faced spy?"

Cao Yuqing couldn't help but chuckled, "You are so direct in your words. I am the leader of the silver-faced spy, so I naturally trust my subordinates. Maybe you don't know much about us, but I can tell you responsibly, After those of us were selected, we have been trained since childhood. It seems that we are working hard for money, but when the late emperor trained this group of people, what he taught most was loyalty and perseverance to the mission.

"To put it bluntly, although silver is used as a measure of our mission transactions, it is not the most important thing in our lives. People who have been trained as tools, don't expect us to be too interested in anything."

Qin Yining understood clearly and began to worry in her heart, "You mean, those six people are unlikely to betray?"

"right.

"Cao Yuqing said decisively, "I don't know what the Qingtian League told you, and I really don't know what happened to them, but the result now is that the treasure is gone and the people are missing. It is too arbitrary to conclude that the silver-faced spy betrayed you just by hearing a word from someone from the Blue Sky Alliance without any evidence. "

Hearing this, Qin Yining had to admit that what Cao Yuqing said was right.

No matter how much Qin Huaiyuan trusted the silver-faced spy.

Just talking about her feelings towards the Blue Sky Alliance is actually not very good. When they were committed to overthrowing the Hunjun earlier, this group of allies was like a grassroots team, although most of them were united out of hatred for the Hunjun. But after the revenge, many former "heroes" were mixed among the people who stayed.

The former Qingtian Alliance was a rebel during the Great Yan period, so most of the alliance members had no household registration, and there were even many criminals with poor character among them.

After Dayan surrendered to Zhou, this group of people without household registration became even more marginalized.

Dazhou's household registration must refer to the former Dayan household registration. This group of "bandits" who were not allowed to enter the household in the past are still not recognized as gangsters in Dazhou.

Qin Yining didn't look down on the status of these people, but felt that there was a lack of management in such a large organization and they were all independent. These people refused to listen to what she said and often played tricks on her, so they didn't really believe her.

Compared with the highly disciplined and professionally trained silver-faced spies, the quality of the Qingtian League, which is as scattered as sand, is clearly superior.

Qin Yining had a lot on his mind, but outside he could only breathe.

Cao Yuqing said: "Let's talk about what's going on here so that we can come up with a countermeasure. I often talk to your father about things here at home, and I also get some ideas and opinions from him. You If you trust me, if I encounter the same problem later, I can relay your father's words to you."

Qin Yining was overjoyed when he heard this, and said repeatedly: "Okay, I'll trouble you." Then he found the treasure along the way, was detained in the cave where the treasure was hidden, and how he was put under house arrest in the mountain. How did he do it? The news was circulated, and then how they arrived at the old capital and Yang County, including how to prepare for disaster relief and rice relief, was explained in detail.

Finally, we talked about what happened after Mrs. Liao arrived.

"So what you're saying is that the emperor has surrounded the entire old capital with his troops? --\u003e\u003e

But when I came, I didn't find these people. "

"They naturally have military camps stationed there, and they can't do anything too dazzling. I guess they must have set up camp in a hidden place and broken them into pieces."

"Interesting." Cao Yuqing couldn't help but smile sarcastically, "The minds of these emperors are different from those of us ordinary people. In their hearts, isn't the life of the common people life? I think this person claims to be a wise king. The emperor, when he had to choose between the victims and the treasure, he still chose the treasure. If you and my uncle hadn't racked their brains to scatter the wealth and take the blame, I'm afraid this place would have been in chaos. What else would there be? Do you have enough time to find the treasure?"

Qin Yining also smiled bitterly upon hearing this.

"We are under the eaves, so there is nothing we can do. Now the treasure has disappeared out of thin air. I am also worried that the people on both sides will be in any danger, and I just don't know what to do."

Cao Yuqing pondered for a moment and said: "In my opinion, there must be a traitor who betrayed you about the treasure. And I don't think it was done by a silver-faced spy. The subordinates we trained are like tools, They probably wouldn't do that. Therefore, if the money is attractive to people, it is very likely that the Qingtian Alliance found a reason to hide the treasure and take it for themselves. Or, perhaps, they deliberately hid the treasure to lure people into taking the bait. , catch them all in one fell swoop.”

"I also have this suspicion." Qin Yining sighed: "Although the prince has no intention of rebellion. But the enemy has been constantly doubting and jealous, and sooner or later he will take action. The treasure is too unsafe in the hands of the opponent. If the superiors are so If you have more concern for the people, we will not rush the ducks to the shelves to snatch the treasure this time."

Because there were not enough manpower, Pang Xiao's people were strictly guarded and monitored, so Qin Yining had no choice but to use spies outside and people from the Blue Sky Alliance.

Who knew something would happen now?

Cao Yuqing patted Qin Yining's shoulder and said, "You don't have to worry. I will continue to investigate in the next few days. There are also some secret communication codes between our spies. I will discuss it with you after I check carefully."

Qin Yining's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he suddenly said: "My father arranged for you to come."

Cao Yuqing couldn't help laughing when she heard this, "Your father has a clever plan."

Qin Yining chuckled. Cao Yuqing also chuckled with her face heating up.

Cao Yuqing was originally very charming, but now she was smiling like a trembling flower. Although she was dressed as a man, her every move and gesture revealed a different kind of beauty from her heroic appearance.

Qin Yining liked it and couldn't help but sigh.

No wonder Mrs. Sun doesn't want to see Cao Yuqing so much. In fact, the more you get along with this woman, the more shining points you will find in her. Under this person's beautiful skin, there is a heart that is not inferior to the competition of men.

Cao Yuqing sat for a while and then left quietly.

When Pang Xiao came back, Qin Yining and Pang Xiao sat alone in the quiet back office. Qin Yining whispered in Pang Xiao's ear everything that happened today.

Pang Xiao was shocked at first, and then carefully asked about the contents of the note given by the people from the Blue Sky Alliance.

Qin Yining was so smart. After reading the note carefully twice, he could recite it by heart. So when Pang Xiao asked, she memorized the entire note from the first word to the next.

Pang Xiao hugged Qin Yining's shoulders and murmured: "I'm afraid this matter is really going to come out."

Qin Yining was a little nervous when he heard this. Are you saying that the Holy One may already know about this? "

Pang Xiao analyzed it carefully and finally said: "It's not necessarily all bad things. At least now we have noticed that the people of the Blue Sky Alliance are very suspicious."

"Do you also think the people from the Blue Sky Alliance are more suspicious?" Qin Yining asked.

Pang Xiao said: "I'm just talking nonsense, I can't be sure. However, the behavior of the people of the Qingtian League is really unpredictable. And I still haven't figured it out yet, why would the Holy One insist that he must know that the treasure is in Yang County? The road in Yang County is really difficult. They are transporting such heavy treasures, and they don’t come with empty trucks. How on earth did they transport the hidden treasures without anyone noticing? "

When Pang Xiao said this, he actually had no other meaning. Qin Yining thought of another level.

"So, I'm afraid they have planned it a long time ago. They have already found the location to hide the treasure in advance. The carrier pigeon we sent the message before became their signal, successfully avoiding outsiders and hiding the things?"

The more Qin Yining talked, the more helpless he felt.

However, Pang Xiao felt very distressed. He held her in his arms and said, "Don't think too much first. Let's take a look at the results of Guard Cao's investigation first. Guard Cao is far better than me in terms of spying on hidden whereabouts." .She will definitely find the clue."

Sure enough, just as Pang Xiao said.

The next day, when Pang Xiao went to inspect the porridge shed, Cao Yuqing climbed through the window and walked in quietly again.
