Return of the Swallow

Ji Zeyu heard the resistance in Pang Xiao's words and smiled and said: "As the saying goes, generals will not accept military orders abroad. Your Majesty is far away in the capital, and he doesn't know that this is the critical moment of the battle. If you relax a little, the Lu family will support you. The Tatars will make a comeback, and all the efforts made these days will be in vain.”

As Ji Zeyu spoke, his eyes were like knives piercing the little chamberlain who was delivering the order.

The little chamberlain didn't understand what Ji Zeyu meant. When he heard clearly the unabashed conversation between Pang Xiao and Ji Zeyu just now, the little chamberlain felt that his life might be in danger. Now that he was directly asked to convey such words, the little chamberlain almost cried.

If he is lucky enough to survive this time, he must find a way to get away from the Holy Master. He would rather clean the toilet than do such a dangerous thing!

There were two giant Buddhas, Prince Zhongshun and Duke Dingguo, in front of him. They both said this, and he could only nod in agreement if he wanted to survive.

"Yes, although I don't understand much, I have seen the ferocity of the Tatars with my own eyes. If the prince and the prince hadn't fought desperately, the Tatars would have broken in long ago."

Pang Xiao smiled and didn't want to embarrass such a young chamberlain. He nodded and said, "It's good that you know. Go down and have a good rest. Let's go back tomorrow."

"Yes." The waiter bowed respectfully and quietly left.

Ji Zeyu pursed his lips and looked at the back of the young chamberlain with his hands behind his hands: "This person cannot be kept."

"It's nothing, he's just a little chamberlain. No matter what he says or doesn't say, it will not affect the Holy Lord's attitude towards me. People who should be suspicious will still be suspicious."

Although this is the truth, Ji Zeyu always feels uneasy when keeping such a person.

Pang Xiao patted him on the shoulder, "Although we are in the war, we all have a lot of blood on our hands, but we still have to stick to the bottom line of being a human being. If you treat killing as an insignificant thing, you will gradually Losing respect for life will directly affect our behavior in the future."

"You always have so many reasons." Ji Zeyu looked back at Pang Xiao, his tone was complaining, but his eyes were full of appreciation.

It is precisely because of such perseverance that we have been able to maintain our original intention for so many years without being disturbed by external things.

Pang Xiao folded his hands and meditated for a moment, then said: "I think the Holy Father will be furious this time. He might just order someone to arrest me. What's worse, he might directly go to kill Sister Yi and my children. I can't wait any longer. Yes, they must be kept away."

Ji Zeyu nodded: "That's what I was about to say.

Your child is important, so order someone to rush there. "

Pang Xiao nodded, and immediately selected all the elite tiger guards who were following him, and Tang Xiu led them to Jingang to meet them.

When Qin Yining learned that Pang Xiao had openly resisted the decree and refused to "return to Beijing to report on his duties," Li Qitian was furious and made the matter too difficult to get off the ring.

Because Qin Yining held the children and asked Chen Zhixian for help, Chen Zhixian specially arranged for officers to step up patrols and closely observe the area around Qin Yining. They did find some strange men, but they did not move, and they could not act rashly.

On this day, Magistrate Chen also got news from the court and came to ask Qin Yining.

"The prince is dedicated to the great Zhou Dynasty, but he is too careless in doing things. He could have obeyed the order first and explained it to the emperor face to face after returning to the capital. The emperor will naturally not embarrass the prince when he arrives. But now there is a misunderstanding, and the emperor I mistakenly thought that the prince was disobeying the imperial edict and not being holy."

Chen Zhixian shook his head repeatedly, looking very regretful.

Qin Yining thought of something deeper.

Pang Xiao is a thorn in Li Qitian's side. This time, seeing victory in hand, he urgently summoned Pang Xiao back to the capital. He did not want to reward Pang Xiao, the hero, and even wanted to deal with him. This fully demonstrates Li Qitian's radical side.

In the past, Li Qitian would restrain himself from doing things for reputation and other reasons. But now, he seems to be increasingly unable to contain his anger.

Qin Yining was a little worried. The Holy Spirit is a ruthless person, and staying here with the children will most likely become Li Qitian's target for revenge against Pang Xiao.

Qin Yining smiled and said to Magistrate Chen: "Thank you Magistrate Chen for informing me of this matter. It's just that the prince makes the decision on matters such as war. I can do whatever the prince says. I, a woman, don't know that much." I just want to take my children out for a walk these days. I went to inspect Zhuangzi near me. Magistrate Chen helped us a lot along the way. I don’t know how to thank you."

Chen Zhixian blushed and shook his head: "What did the princess say? Compared with the efforts of the prince and the princess, what I did is really nothing. If the princess plans to go out for a walk, that's fine. It can also relax a little. Maybe The princess has come back after having enough fun, and the prince and the others have returned to the court in triumph."

"Yes." Qin Yining smiled solemnly, "We can drive the Tatars out of the territory of the Zhou Dynasty. As long as we manage things well in the future, the Zhou Dynasty will have good weather and the country will be peaceful and the people will be safe."

"The princess is absolutely right." Chen Zhixian nodded in agreement. Then he asked: "When does the princess plan to go out? I have arranged for a few officers to accompany her, so there will be no trouble. Although our place is far from the Tatars, there is no way there will be an ambush in the event of a war."

Qin Yining smiled gratefully: "That's not necessary. After all, Jingang is also a city built like this, and the guards are already very busy. The prince has arranged some of his guards for me. I think with their care, my safety should be safe." Guaranteed."

Chen Zhixian nodded when he heard this and said in agreement: "For the same reason, the guards around the prince are all experts. It would be good if the princess's safety can be guaranteed."

After discussing with County Magistrate Chen, Qin Yining immediately went to find Xie Yue.

“Mr.

"What the princess said is absolutely true." Xie Yue said with a solemn face: "I didn't expect that the most difficult problem of food and grass would be solved, but something like this happened again. The princess should order someone to make arrangements quickly and bring more guards. yes."

Just when Qin Yining was nervously preparing to set off, planning to leave Jingang temporarily to avoid the limelight, the news of Pang Xiao's rebellion and disrespect was also spread throughout the government and the public.

Li Qitian was originally very proud. Pang Xiao's voice among the people was so high, but he didn't believe what the people would think when they knew that Pang Xiao was such a defiant, disrespectful and contemptuous person.

But things didn't go as smoothly as Li Qitian thought.

Li Qitian wore the attire of a rich young man and walked on the streets of the capital with Xiong Jinshui disguised as an entourage and several spies dressed as guards. When he passed by a teahouse, he sat down and ordered a pot of hot tea.

Teahouses are places where ordinary people go to chat and spend time. For just a few pennies, you can drink good tea, eat good snacks, sometimes listen to books, and sometimes chat with friends.

The storyteller is not here today, but the teahouse is still bustling with activity.

Everyone is discussing Zhou's defeat of the Tatars.

"Prince Zhongshun is really a brave God of War. It seems that many people are saying that Prince Zhongshun is brave, and they are not lying."

"Yes, if it weren't for Prince Zhongshun, I'm afraid the Tatars would have already invaded the capital."

"The Holy One arranged for Prince Zhongshun to make a detour. In fact, it was really inappropriate. The city gate should have been opened to welcome Prince Zhongshun and his party. In that case, the war with the Tatars might have ended long ago."

Li Qitian couldn't help but frowned when he heard this.

Xiong Jinshui and the secret agent lowered their heads, not daring to look at Li Qitian's expression.

These elderly people had nothing to do after they were full. Instead of going home and lying down, they went to the teahouse and talked nonsense!

What a desperate bunch!

At this time, another old man said: "This time, in order to strike while the iron was hot, Prince Zhongshun directly beat the Tatars so that they did not dare to provoke us, Zhou Dynasty. He had no choice but to resist the will of the Holy One. I wonder if the Holy One will blame him." "

Saying this, a group of people shook their heads and sighed. Whether Pang Xiao will be convicted is what they are most concerned about right now.

Li Qitian expressionlessly picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.

Xiong Jinshui really wanted to shout "Quiet" loudly like he did when he went to court.

But right now, he could only pretend that he didn't understand or understand, lowering his head and not daring to move.

"Maybe the Holy One is just concerned about the prince's health. In the future, when the prince expands his territory, he will inevitably go to war. Maybe the Holy One just wants the prince to come back and take good care of him, so as not to damage his roots due to overwork."

"Not necessarily. I do think that Prince Zhongshun may have touched the interests of some people. It is convenient for the prince to be so outstanding and have an influence on others. If someone is jealous, naturally someone will go to the Holy Lord to complain."

"Bah, are you really that shameless? These people have forgotten who saved their lives! It's no longer time for the Tatar soldiers to come to the city and be scared to death! It's only been a few days, and in the blink of an eye, they will go to Even if Prince Zhongshun files a complaint, he will not be afraid that a wicked man will give birth to a son without sex!" Li Qitian's fists were clenched, and although there was nothing unusual on his face, he didn't stay in the teahouse for a while before he suddenly ordered a car to be prepared to go back to the palace.

The louder the public voice, the greater the influence of Pang Xiao, and the angrier Li Qitian becomes.

After thinking about it, he called the spies: "Do you know where the Qin family is now?"

"Back to Your Majesty, your subordinates did not dare to forget. They have always ordered people to closely monitor Princess Zhongshun."

"Okay." Li Qitian quickly tapped the table with his index finger, making a loud and crisp sound.

After a while, the voice suddenly stopped, and Li Qitian said: "Go, capture Mr. Qin and everyone around him, including their twins."

"Yes!" The spy accepted the order and stepped back respectfully.

But when they arrived outside the store, thinking about the complicated relationship between Prince Zhongshun and the Holy Emperor, everyone who learned about the situation sighed unconsciously.

Jingang is not far from the capital, so Qin Yining has less time to prepare.

Fortunately, she had prepared in advance and was able to be so calm at this time.

Ji Yun also told Qin Yining: "Princess, let's leave the city. The young men who suddenly appeared in Jingang earlier also left the city one after another."
