Return of the Swallow

Qin Yining shook his head in thought and said slowly: "It doesn't have to be like this. Since everyone knows this news, the Holy One will not allow anything to happen to the prince. We have more important things to do right now. If we don't do it well, we will not be able to do it in the future." That’s a lot of trouble.”

Qin Yining's words were cryptic, but everyone present was smart, so how could they not understand the meaning?

Xie Yue pondered: "Logically speaking, if this news was spread by word of mouth, it would not have spread here so quickly. I think there is something strange in it. But after all, the Holy Lord is a person who wants to have face. If something happens to the prince, the Holy Lord will Then we can’t escape the relationship.”

"That's right. If the princess hadn't said anything, the servant wouldn't have reacted." Ji Yun said, "I'm afraid that not only will the emperor not harm the prince, but he will also protect the prince."

Several people nodded in agreement.

Qin Yining was worried about Pang Xiao's injury and felt a little heavy.

It’s just that she knows what’s most important right now.

She has also been mentally prepared for a long time. Pang Xiao's place may not go well. No matter what happens, she must find a way to develop and expand the power of Pang Xiao. Only when the power she holds tightly becomes stronger can it have a check and balance effect on Li Qitian, and will Li Qitian have to think carefully when he wants to move Pang Xiao. Dare to act rashly.

Taking a deep breath to adjust his mood, Qin Yining temporarily suppressed his worries and said: "Now we just need to see if the other groups of people go smoothly. If the goods can be safely transported here, half of our plan will be completed. The remaining half is It’s all on Mr. Lu.”

Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi nodded in agreement, and then asked: "The princess plans to meet Mr. Lu in person?"

"Of course I want to go," Qin Yining said with a solemn expression, "Mr. Lu is a great Confucian, and his virtue and status go without saying. If Mr. Lu does not consider the country and does not care about the warships, I will treat him The old man’s understanding is limited to the outstanding level of what he knows and learned. Now I can see that he is a wise man of noble moral character who cares about the country and the people. I am just a prostitute. I am afraid that even if I go to bother him in person, Mr. Lu may not Willing to see you."

After what happened with Tao Hanshan, Qin Yining became more aware of how despised women are in the world today. And the more knowledgeable a person is, the more he despises women.

Xie Yue said with a smile: "You don't have to worry, the prince should have arranged everything clearly. Since Mr. Lu is willing to agree to the prince's proposal and is willing to settle here now, it means that he doesn't care that the princess is a woman."

Knowing Qin Yining's worries, Xu Weizhi also smiled and explained: "The princess is a woman who is not inferior to men. We people often say in private that if the prince does not have such a virtuous wife as the princess, how can things go so smoothly? Princess I helped the prince a lot,

Only those stupid people would care that the princess is a woman. "

Qin Yining felt their kindness and smiled gratefully: "Thank you two gentlemen for your explanation. In fact, I have already thought about it. Everyone's situation is different, their temperament is different, and their thoughts are naturally different. Now I just hope that I can help the prince complete the task." For the important matter at hand, I will be satisfied if I don’t hold the prince back.”

"How can the princess drag the prince back? The prince has such a virtuous wife as you, which is even more powerful than a tiger."

Just when the atmosphere in the room was warm and everyone was talking and laughing, there was suddenly a sound of footsteps outside, and someone was talking in a low voice, and then the footsteps gradually got closer.

Qin Yining looked up carefully and looked up, only to see a few strong men walking in quickly. The first few looked familiar, but they couldn't name them.

The five people came closer and saluted respectfully in turn.

"Subordinates Lin Yue, Wen Tianqi, Zang Wenxuan, Yan Rong, and Ji Dashun, please see the princess!"

"Excuse me, everyone, thank you for your hard work. Please take a seat." Qin Yining stood up politely and helped him.

The five of them stood up together and did not dare to sit down.

The leader, Lin Yue, was the Jinghu Guard who was previously ordered to contact the rest of the group. At this time, he explained: "My subordinates were ordered to investigate the situation. After confirming that they were fine, they contacted several brothers. The transported goods are now hidden by the sea. In an abandoned village, the people there have moved into the city, and there are rumors that the village is haunted. It seems like an unlucky place, which is perfect for us to hide."

Qin Yining couldn't help but smile and said, "You are good at choosing places. People would not dare to investigate places considered unlucky even if they heard the noise."

"Exactly." Wen Tianqi was the youngest, just seventeen this year. Seeing that the princess was so approachable, he couldn't help scratching the back of his head and said with a simple smile, "This idea was Brother Ji's. I said at first that this was inappropriate, strange It’s scary, Brother Ji said that with him here, Ji is lucky.”

Ji Dashun was already thirty, and looking at Wen Tianqi was like looking at his younger brother. Hearing this, his old face turned red with helplessness.

Qin Yining smiled and said: "Brother Ji's name is auspicious and smooth. This is a good sign. We will definitely succeed this time."

Everyone laughed.

Qin Yining said: "Since the goods are safe, brothers, you have to work harder to keep a good watch on them. At the same time, pay attention to the situation on the dock and use the fire as a signal..." As she said, she approached a few people and whispered a few words.

Several people nodded after hearing this, "Don't worry, Princess, this matter is not difficult."

Everyone bowed, left the inn in scattered directions, and headed back to the deserted village by the sea.

Qin Yining stood up and said with a smile: "I'm going to visit Mr. Lu right now, and I'd like to ask the two gentlemen to go with me to feel more courageous."

Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi couldn't help laughing: "You are a hero among women, how can you be timid? It's just a chance for us two old guys to meet Mr. Lu."

"In other words, I am young, a relatively young governor, and have no voice to speak in front of Mr. Lu. Only with two gentlemen sitting in charge, I have some confidence."

The two of them could see that Qin Yining said what he said sincerely, and they felt very happy in their hearts. They humbly left the inn across the courtyard with Qin Yining and headed for the seaside.

It is said that they live in a hut, but it is actually a simple straw shed, with wood as the frame and straw mats as the roof and four walls.

Qin Yining stepped on the large and small gravels and gravel on the seaside, facing the strong wind on the sea, with his clothes and robe flying.

Before a few people could get closer, a gap was pushed open on one side of the hut. Lu Yunzheng poked his head out and saw Qin Yining and his party. He seemed surprised by the handsomeness of the young man at the head. He opened his eyes slightly, and then his face became clear. color.

"This young master, is his surname Qin?" Lu Yun said with a smile.

Seeing that Lu Yun was so polite, Qin Yining breathed a sigh of relief and bowed even more politely, "Mr. Lu is well. My surname is Qin. I came here on Brother Pang's order to ask Mr. Lu to fulfill the agreement."

Lu Yun smiled gracefully and leisurely pointed to the hut behind her: "You guys have come from afar, if you don't mind, can we have a cup of tea together?"
