Return of the Swallow

Pang Xiao frowned, stood still and did not speak.

But Li Qitian was already angered.

The horse whip in his hand waved angrily, flying a dead tree bark by the roadside.

"Good Lu Heng! He deceived me so miserable! First he hid the treasure, and then deceived me. Now in order to escape from the chaos, he wants to assassinate me! He turned against him!" Li Qitian roared, he was almost crazy. .

"Shengshang calm down." Pang Xiao, Xiong Jinshui and others knelt down one after another.

Li Qitian's anger was unquenchable.

Looking at the chaotic camp in front of him, listening to the shouts of people fighting the fire, looking at the embarrassment of everyone in front of him, and looking down at the bedclothes he was wearing, Li Qitian could hardly contain his anger.

Lu Heng's squad, he was teased as a child!He must have hidden the treasure a long time ago, deliberately pulling on Pang Xiao to distract him.He used his family background as a threat, and accurately used his unconcealed jealousy towards Pang Xiao.

He was opportunistic, but the ridiculous thing was that he believed his words and gave him this chance to escape!

Li Qitian even had a hunch that the remaining five roads might not find the treasure.

Because Lu Heng has hidden the treasure!

"Ah——!" Li Qitian exclaimed angrily.

Everyone fell silent again, and did not dare to react at all.

When the fire was finally extinguished, the sky was already white.

The horse was gray-headed and grudged back and forth: "Holy, the fire has been extinguished. Fortunately, no casualties have been found. The horses have burned a few, and some escaped without being fastened. Fortunately, the wind was small yesterday and they did not burn to the side. Woods."

Li Qitian grumbled coldly, and Ma Cheng immediately bowed his head and said nothing.

Where is there so much fortune?

As the emperor, Li Qitian left the capital for the treasure. He has already been criticized. Now the treasure is not obtained. Instead, it has caused the so-called "natural disaster warning" by the people. The rumor has not yet subsided. On the way back to Beijing, he encountered another fire and almost died. lost.

In such a situation, Li Qitian was depressed, and he couldn't think of any "fortunate" at all, because he didn't care about the number of casualties, whether the horse was burned to death, or whether the forest was lit.

He is just thinking about losing someone this time.

What a shame!

Pang Xiao understood Li Qitian's thoughts best, and wanted to say more when he saw Ma Cheng, and gave him a wink without any trace.

Ma Cheng was taken aback, and then he understood, gratefully blinked at Pang Xiao, lowered his head and dared not speak any more.

It's just that Xiong Jinshui has suffered for this time.

The prince and the general did not speak, he could only bite the bullet and ask: "Holy, do you send a letter back to Beijing and send someone else to pick you up?"

Among other things, the saint's personal belongings were burned clean, and the dragon robe and the guard of honor were gone.Would it be possible for the saint to return to Beijing quietly wearing a folk cloth?

The civil and military officials knew that the sage had left the capital, and he would definitely come to pick him up. Xiong Jinshui could hardly imagine that when the civil and military officials received an embarrassed sage at the gate of the capital, what kind of rumors should be spread? How will the Lord be angry.

Li Qitian obviously thought of this too, his expression tangled and he didn't know how to make a decision for a while.

In addition, whether you send someone to pick you up, or go back quietly, with so many people here, you must be unaware of the situation here.

If it is concealed, it might make people laugh at his guilty conscience.

But if you don't hide it, someone will say something to warn you.

How to do it is difficult.

Seeing that Li Qitian was so embarrassed, Pang Xiao hesitated and said, "Holy, let’s continue our journey first. When we arrive outside the capital, I will be ordered to enter the city quietly to prepare the things used for the holy ceremonial battle. This time you take the troops out to suppress the bandits. In the past, there was no reason why the squad army returned to the dynasty and entered the city immediately. They only entered the city after a day of rectification outside the city. Then stationed outside the city, so as to give all the civil and military officials time to prepare for the holy driver. As for the road In the event of banditry, the Holy Supreme sent people to eliminate them, and when the fighting was fierce, the bandits were forced to kill and set people ablaze. This kind of affairs officials thought that everyone had no other ideas."

Pang Xiao's proposal made Li Qitian's eyes light up, and his mood suddenly brightened.

"Or you are young and flexible." Li Qitian sighed.

Pang Xiao scratched his head and said with a smile: "The saint is in his prime of life. It's not unexpected. It's just a moment of irritation."

Why are you angry?Of course it was because of Lu Heng's deception and assassination.

Li Qitian gritted his teeth when thinking of Lu Heng, and told Xiong Jinshui in a deep voice, "Then do what the prince said."

Xiong Jinshui immediately responded, and his admiration for Pang Xiao was as if a mountain admired.

In a flash, he can come up with a way to solve the troubles and appease the sage, and he can also take the black loyalty uncle by the way. It is no wonder that such a person can become the only prince with a different surname in this dynasty.

Everyone set off again, avoiding the chariot and horse ceremonial guard, naturally faster, came to the city gate to set up a camp, and ordered people to secretly take the yellow robe ceremonial guard for the time being.

At this point, Pang Xiao's suspicion on the treasure was completely cleared.

As for Li Qitian's anger towards Lu Heng, it was no surprise that the Lu family and people related to the Lu family were involved, and a baptism was about to usher in the court.

At this time, Qin Yining was standing on a warship, looking at the faintly visible land in the distance with a monocular telescope.

"Is that the Wa country?"

Liao Zhibing nodded: "Yes, that's a port in Wa country. Our people landed from here last time. The neighboring port is Mizusawa country of Daimyo Ishikawa. But you know, their country is like Ours is a relatively large village."

Qin Yining nodded, "Even so, they are local snakes, so we can't underestimate them. Looking back at the warship behind him, Qin Yining thought for a while and said, "Where is the harbor huge?Is it as big as Golden Port?"

Gao Delai smiled honestly: "Leader, the port there is not as big as the Golden Port. It can't stop so many warships. At most, it can take two warships at the same time."

Upon seeing Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi on the side, they understood what Qin Yining meant, and asked with a smile, "Wang Hao, are you planning?"

Qin Yining smiled and said: "The two largest warships with cargo can't come to shore naturally. Let's keep reliable guards, and the rest of the warships are ready to land. I will bring a ship close and explore them. The details."

"The princess is going to land in person to meet the daimyo Ishikawa?" Xie Yue disapproved, "Wang princess, your status is precious. You shouldn't go out in person on this matter. Why don't you go and see him?"

"Yes. The old man is willing to walk with Brother Xie. Here we are not familiar with the place of life, the princess should not come forward."

Qin Yining took a deep breath and stroked her hair, which was blown by the sea breeze. "This is Sakurai's hometown. Why should I take him back."
