Return of the Swallow

The carriage traveled along the official road leading to Xiangu Temple. Qin Yining and Cao Yuqing shared a carriage. Qin Yining was carrying a rock candy, while Cao Yuqing brought a personally-serving old maid. The four people sat on both sides of the car. Followed by the six nursing homes accompanying him.

Both Qin Yining and Bingtang have a dignified and elegant sitting posture and standard etiquette.

The old mother Cao Yuqing took with him was a little relaxed, but Cao Yuqing lazily leaned on a big pillow, holding a small bag of snacks in her hand, and her small cherry mouth was slightly pouted, with a plum beside it. Reading the notebook while eating, I would chuckle from time to time.

Her voice was soft and soft, and her smile was like a yellow oriole coming out of the valley, especially sweet, the light from the gap of the car curtain shone on the gold-studded pearl on the side of her temple, and the elegant halo was swaying and shining, making her more beautiful The skin is better than snow, and the complexion is outstanding.

Bingtang hangs his head, playing with a small wooden box three inches wide with a thumb in his hand, which hides the resentment towards the Cao family well.

Qin Yining admired the beauty unceremoniously and generously.

Cao Yuqing spit out a pit, raised her eyes, facing Qin Yining's face, and couldn't help but smile: "Why did Miss Si look at her maid in this way?"

"Aunt Cao has a beautiful face, and everyone has a love for beauty. To be lucky enough to ride in the same carriage, I naturally have to seize the opportunity and take a few more glances." Qin Yining said with a serious smile on his face.

If this is said by a man, it is an undisguised molesting.But facing the seriousness that Qin Yining said, it made life not feel any disgusting emotions.

Cao Yuqing smiled and said: "The fourth lady is joking. The maidservant is middle-aged, where is there any beauty? But the fourth lady is reasonable, and the beauty must seize the opportunity to take a look."

Once she lost the script, she lazily supported half of her body with her elbows, admiring Qin Yining.

Her eyes did not contain any hostility, falling on Qin Yining's face, as if she was admiring a precious antique and old object.

If Qin Yining was an ordinary girl, she would blush now.

But she was not. She just thought that Cao Yuqing would just follow her if she wanted to. Anyway, she didn't look at her less. This is fair, let alone all women, so why bother to care so much.

Gradually, Cao Yuqing's eyes softened as she watched Qin Yining's pretty face, as if it were a spring spring.But his eyes gradually became empty, as if looking at others through Qin Yining.

Qin Yining was keenly aware of the change, and he was a little clear thinking of everyone's evaluation of his appearance.

Qin Huaiyuan now has a beard, and his temperament has changed as he grows older, he is definitely no longer the way he was famous in Beijing when he was young.Qin Huaiyuan is now an elegant middle-aged beautiful man with a bit of moral integrity.

And what Cao Yuqing saw through her face was probably Qin Huaiyuan, who was called "Zhi Panan" when he was young without a beard.

"How long has my aunt and my father known each other?"

Qin Yining's words brought Cao Yuqing back to life.

She blinked and laughed: "The acquaintance is mutual, so the real acquaintance is not long after. But I had seen Lord Hou and his wife at a palace banquet before I left the cabinet."

Qin Yining nodded clearly.

In fact, she could tell that Cao Yuqing belonged to her father.

Whether or not Cao Yuqing is the daughter of Cao Guozhang, or why Cao Yuqing invited her mother to stay in the palace, what role did she play in the process?It is undeniable that when facing her father, Cao Yuqing was very restrained and even catered to her father.

This kind of catering is not just for the favor, but because of sincere love.

When Cao Yuqing was not out of the cabinet, his father should have been in his thirties.

Thirty is the heyday of men.The youthful youth, the most prosperous, and the most mature and stable age.

It is also a pity that I am old.

Qin Yining smiled slightly: "Auntie recently..."

Before the words were finished, there was a violent vibration in the carriage!

The horse hissed, and then the nurses yelled: "Who are you!"

Qin Yining's heart shuddered, and he hurriedly opened a gap in the car curtain to look out, while Cao Yuqing opened the curtain.

Just outside the carriage, a group of men dressed as poor civilians, each covered with rags and holding sticks, and a few people with knives, more than 20 people, surrounded the carriage.

At this moment they were in a place where there was no shop in front of the village. There were woods on both sides of the road. The road to Xiangu Guan was straight and smooth, but no one passed by!

Qin Yining retracted into the car in shock, and saw Cao Yuqing looking out desperately, and hurriedly pulled her back: "Auntie, don't show your face carefully!" Is this person going to cause trouble!The look she gave birth to, let the mountain bandit road tyrant look at it, and if there is no evil intention, he will give birth to evil intention!

"What to do, what to do!" Bingtang pulled Qin Yining anxiously.

Cao Yuqing was also supported by the old mother surnamed Lu, and they both shook together.

The bandits outside the carriage had already rushed up and beat the guards.

When the clubs met, Qin Yining could still hear a rude man yelling: "That lady is very handsome! I was taken captive and went back to be the wife of the village!"

Qin Yining and Cao Yuqing looked at each other, both faces showing horror.

"At this time, we can only take a try!" Qin Yining casually pulled out the silver hairpin on his head and held it in his hand. "Hurry up and find out what can be used as a weapon. Get ready!"

"Yes, but they have knives!" Cao Yuqing also learned from Qin Yining, pulling out a hairpin and holding it.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the voice fell, several screams came from outside the carriage.

It was the Qin's nursing home that was cut outside the carriage!

A blood-stained steel knife picked up the curtain, and then even a rugged man with thick eyebrows probed in. Although he was covered with a cloth towel and couldn't see his face, his eyes burst into surprise after seeing Qin Yining and Cao Yuqing. But made no secret of it.

"Tsk tusk, the little lady is really handsome!" She stretched out her big hand to Qin Yining's face.

Qin Yining gritted his teeth and glared at the man, and the moment his hand approached, a hairpin suddenly pierced up.

The man was caught off guard by the stabbing, a blood hole was poked in his arm, and a hole was cut open, and blood spurted out immediately.

"Ah!" The man stepped back.

His companions laughed when he saw that he was actually hanging on.

The man was angry and pointed at Qin Yining with the tip of his knife and cursed: "Smelly girl! You are looking for death!" He threw the knife and rushed forward.

Qin Yining tried his best to fight the man. Although she has great strength, she does not know how to work. There are four women in the carriage, and only one of them can do a little bit. Cao Yuqing and Mother Lu are both bluffed and devoid of expression. Limped and dare not move, Bingtang's resistance can be ignored in their eyes.

In the end, the four women were still arrested.

Cao Yuqing was so scared that she fainted with a scream, Mother Lu supported the person, tears streaming down her bluff.

Bingtang calmed down, and his face was pale and trembling.

Qin Yining's hands were cut behind her back by the two men, and she had to bend over in pain, but she still stared at the man without showing weakness, and asked, "What are you going to do!"
