Return of the Swallow

When Pang Xiao returned to the palace, his expression still kept the expression of implied anger and forced to suppress his mood.It was not until he returned to the room and saw Qin Yining that he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"What's the matter, it's so happy?" Qin Yining heard the movement and greeted her. Seeing Pang Xiao standing alone at the door smiling, she couldn't help but smile.

Pang Xiao shook his head and sat beside Luohan's bed with Qin Yining in his arms.

"It's nothing, just thinking of Uncle Zhongyi, I think it's very interesting." Telling Qin Yining of the conversation between Lu Heng and Lu Heng, Pang Xiao shook his head and laughed: "He should be calling me a fool in his heart."

Qin Yining said amusedly: "Isn't he just asking him to do this?"

Think of Pang Xiao who would rather be robbed of a problem, and gradually become proficient in acting and conspiracy. Qin Yining couldn't help but sigh: "For outsiders, whether it is you or the loyal uncle, you are a dragon and phoenix in the world, a person with infinite beauty. For example, we are rich and wealthy, and our status is not only a little bit higher than that of ordinary people. But only we know how much we have suffered under the glamorous appearance. Acting is the easiest way to lick blood when we are born into death. It's commonplace."

Pang Xiao kissed Qin Yining's cheek, and said indifferently: "It doesn't matter if you do a play, you can get used to it from birth to death. As much as you can enjoy the wealth, you will suffer as much crime, and you will have to face it with peace of mind. Anyway, the days to come will only happen. Better than now."

Qin Yining laughed.

She wanted to persuade Pang Xiao to appease, but he didn't expect that he could think about it, so he persuaded her in turn.

"If you can think about it, it is naturally good. In that case, I will tell people to prepare, and we will set off tomorrow."

Pang Xiao nodded, "I will go outside to discuss with Mr. Xie and Mr. Xu."

Pang Xiao and Qin Yining made separate preparations. The next day, with enough manpower, the group drove the carriage and left Huichuan County swaggeringly.

In addition to the two-person carriage, there are also a number of green carriages and flatbed carts in the fleet.

The guards who accompanied him were relaxed, talking and laughing. Qin Yining often opened the curtains and looked out. The leisurely appearance did not seem to be going on an errand, but rather like going out for fun.

When Pang Xiao and Qin Yining went out of the city to get a lot of momentum, Lu Heng heard the news and stood on the corner of the street with Lu Wenru to make sure that they had indeed left.

I just saw Qin Yining clinging to Pang Xiao obediently and tenderly from the open car window. The two of them talked and laughed intimately, thinking that even in Danfu County, even if the sky fell, there would still be Qin Yining around Pang Xiao’s honor and disgrace, Lu Heng’s good The mood is reduced by more than half.

"Let's go." Lu Heng turned away with a calm face.

Lu Wenru didn't dare to ask more, and hurriedly followed, but he understood Lu Heng's feelings in his heart. Compared with the uncle's wife who is still in the mansion, the pair of Prince Zhongshun and the princess is really enviable.

Danfu County is not very far from Huichuan County, for fear of delaying business. As soon as the team arrived in the suburbs, Qin Yining discussed with Pang Xiao and set off first.

Although Pang Xiao had made the decision a long time ago, seeing Qin Yining put on an ordinary long cotton dress and white gauze hat, he was still worried.

"Isn't it okay for me to arrange more Jinghuwei to follow you? You only bring Jiyun and Jingzhe with you four, I really can't relax."

Qin Yining lifted the white gauze on the veil and looked up at Pang Xiao with a smile: "I am just an ordinary business woman now. It would be a big deal to have a maid and four men by my side. If there are more people. I am afraid that people will doubt that by then, will it be impossible to inquire about anything? Besides, each of the Jinghuwei is a dragon and phoenix, with extraordinary appearance. It is too eye-catching to go out. It is not like the four of them. They were good at doing it before. I also have experience in spying, and I know better how to obscure it."

Pang Xiao knew that Qin Yining was right, and said helplessly: "Well, it's all up to you."

Turning around and telling Tang Xiu: "You take someone to see if anyone is following."

"Yes." Tang Xiu responded, and took the Jinghuwei to check it out. After a while, he said back and forth, "Back to the lord, there is nothing suspicious."

Pang Xiao helped Qin Yining get into the carriage, and instead ordered Jingzhe to wait for the four people.

"Although spying on the news is important, the safety of the princess is even more important. If anything happens, the princess's safety is the first priority."

"Yes. Lord, don't worry, I will not humiliate my life." Jingzhe several people solemnly saluted.

Qin Yining lifted the curtain of the car, smiled and said with Pang Xiao: "Don't worry, I went to find out the news, and I won't cause trouble. Besides, I dress like this and wear a drapery hat. No one can tell who I am or where. What is the danger?"

"I know your ability, but you are still worried." Pang Xiao said helplessly, "Go, evacuate immediately if something happens. It doesn't matter if you don't find out the news, I just followed, I don't believe that. Cheng Weimin can really resist the imperial order."

"Got it." Qin Yining said goodbye to Pang Xiao with a smile, and then ordered a few people to start the journey.

An ordinary green carriage, followed by two flat carriages full of daily groceries, slowly walked onto the road.

Seeing Qin Yining walking far away, Pang Xiao told his men, "Let's set off as well, and go slowly on the official road."

The journey to Danfu County went smoothly. In the early morning of July 13th, a group of people drove the cart directly into the city gate by the guide.

In the hot summer weather, the windows of the car are open, and there is only a layer of curtains between the inside and outside. As they progressed, the curtains exhibited a wave-like curvature. Qin Yining and Jiyun lifted the curtains from left to right to look out.

As a large county with fertile land and well-developed agriculture, Danfu County seems to be much larger than Huichuan County. There are people walking by on the street. You can see how these people have lived by looking at their clothes and demeanor. Very peaceful.

"Madam, the atmosphere here looks very good. It seems to be more comfortable than in Huichuan County. People have a lot of smiles on their faces. They all seem to be kind people." Jiyun said softly.

Qin Yining nodded, "Although we have caught up with the floods, the foundation of Danfu County is there after all. People don't need to worry about whether they will starve to death, they are naturally relaxed. Only when they live comfortably, they don't have to fight to be calm. Be a kind person."

Qin Yining thought of Liangcheng, where the two countries were fighting.When the war is going on, the husband and the son cannot even care about each other.Just eat one bite, whoever eats can live, is it for himself or for his relatives?She saw the warm and selfless side of many people, but also the dark side of selfishness.There were not a few who were forced to flee into the mountains like her.Not many people survived.She was really lucky.

Outside the carriage, Jingzhe and Xiaoman started to chat with passers-by by ringing bells, and began to sell the goods they carried.

As a trader, it is natural to act like a trader.

The two trucks traveled very slowly, and the carriage Qin Yining was in was not close, so they were behind them, carefully observing the surroundings.

A few silver-faced spies and the guys who pretend to be merchants have no difficulty in doing business with people one by one with a smile. Many of the goods they bring are everyday small items. The hair ropes, rouge and gouache used by women are not expensive. There are also some small jewellery, which immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Some people came up to ask the price and left if they felt it was inappropriate. Some hesitated. Their purpose was to inquire about the news. The price of the goods was naturally very flexible and even accepted bartering.

Soon, a merchant came to the city, and the news spread that they were carrying rare objects.

Qin Yining didn't show up, watching Jingzhe them doing business from a distance, and by the way inquiring about things in the city without a trace, it took more than an hour for the carriage to move towards the next corner.

Jingzhe took a moment to get close to Qin Yining's carriage and whispered: "Master, something is wrong here."

"How to say?"

"There are three big clans with the big surnames living in this county, namely Liu, Yuan, and Yu. The population of these three clans together account for 80% of the county’s population. From the dialogue, we can see that The people are very united because of this. They lead people to peace and have the kind of sincerity of the villagers. But whenever I waited for a chat, and mentioned that the imperial tombs were to be built nearby, they all kept silent, and there were a few that were originally Those who are very enthusiastic about shopping, turn around after hearing the word "Huang Tomb"."

Qin Yining frowned: "It can be seen from the roster that when the former governor's office was building the imperial tomb, most of the civil servants at the time came to Danfu County. It is unreasonable to hear that Xiu imperial tomb was so cold, did they have any problems in the first place? ?"

"Perhaps this is the case." Shocked, "At the current speed, it seems that our team will take at least two days to travel through the entire county. Today, let's take this main road from east to west. What do you think?"

"Naturally it's good." Qin Yining said, "Don't be too deliberate. Once in a while, it's just an occasional sentence."

"Yes, don't worry, Master."

The two simply said, Jingzhe was like an ordinary boy, happily returning to the cart.

Two carts took the lead, Qin Yining's cart followed, and the party continued to advance slowly.

After a short while, I came to the most prosperous part of Main Street in Danfu County.

Qin Yining looked out through the gaps in the curtains, UU reading www.uukanshu.Com frowned when he fell under a big tree at the entrance of the alley.

Under the tree was now lying a man in ragged clothes and a thin body like a bamboo pole.The man’s temples were white, his hair was like dried weeds, and his face was dirty, making it difficult to see his actual appearance and age. He could only see that his nose was very high, and he held one in his arms. The egg-thick bamboo stick, as if it were his treasure, curled up barefoot.

Seeing that Qin Yining's expression was wrong, Jiyun asked in a low voice, "Madam, what's the matter?"

"Look at that, there is a beggar." Qin Yining pointed to the person under the tree.

Jiyun looked at it, nodded and said, "It is."

"Do you find it strange?"

"Why is it strange?"

Qin Yining frowned and said, "Along the way, we haven't seen a beggar. There is only one here."

Jiyun smiled and said: "Xu Shi no one comes to the main street, everyone lives in a remote Didi Temple."
