Return of the Swallow

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the court was really shocked.

No one could have imagined that the Holy Emperor would still value Prince Zhongshun so highly.

When arranging his errands in other places, he was considerate of his newlyweds and allowed her to take the princess with him on the trip.

It seems that the Holy One still relies on Prince Zhongshun as much as before!

Regardless of what others thought, Pang Xiao clearly saw Li Qitian's calculation at this time.

He clearly meant to cause trouble for him, to remind him that Qin Yining was once coveted by Yuchi Yan. With Qin Yining on the side, the chance of cooperation between "love rivals" can be greatly reduced.

Pang Xiao said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. I accept your decree!"

But in his heart, he thoroughly despised Li Qitian's effeminate ways.

Li Qitian was probably thinking that Qin Yining had discussed marriage with Yuchi Yan in the Great Yan Dynasty, and Yuchi Yan often acted like he was deeply in love with Qin Yining. Going together this time would definitely cause a lot of trouble for each other, right?

But what Li Qitian didn't know was that Pang Xiao no longer had any resentment in his heart. He no longer doubted Qin Yining's loyalty to him, and he had enough confidence in himself.

He believed that Yu Chiyan would not be able to make waves in front of him.

However, Li Qitian interpreted Pang Xiao's solemn expression as depression, and his mood became even better, and he said loudly: "That's it, the matter is settled like this. You all go back and get ready. Set off early the next morning. Dismiss the court."

"I obey the decree! Long live your Majesty, long live, long live!" All the ministers fell to the ground and shouted long live.

After the court was dismissed, Pang Xiao walked at the end of the line of ministers with a wooden face.

He originally wanted to go back and discuss with Qin Huaiyuan what he needed to pay attention to during this trip. Unexpectedly, before he had gone far, a chamberlain came to deliver a message, "Your Majesty, according to His Majesty's instructions, please go to the Imperial Study Room immediately."

The few people who were near Pang Xiao heard it and knew that the Holy One must be arranging some important task for Pang Xiao. She is both envious and afraid of his current prosperity.

Pang Xiao nodded and went to the imperial study room with the chamberlain.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Li Qitian sitting on an armchair on one side, with a very leisurely posture.

"Your Majesty, Wan'an!" Pang Xiao came forward and saluted.

Li Qitian smiled and said, "You are here, no courtesy, come and sit."

Pang Xiao didn't dare to be so polite. After all, he had to consider the etiquette carefully before he went to the lower position and sat down carefully sideways.

Seeing that he was so respectful, Li Qitian smiled slightly and said, "I have called you here, and you must know why. This time you go to the south, I have only one task for you, and that is to carefully supervise Prince Yan and his party throughout the whole process. Take action. I will allocate thirty carrier pigeons to you shortly, and you will take them all to the south. As soon as there is any news or anything suspicious, send the carrier pigeons immediately to reply."

Homing pigeons are specially trained. No matter how far they fly, as long as they are allowed to fly freely, they can fly back to their nests.

Therefore, the carrier pigeons that deliver messages do not just fly around randomly, they must be trained at designated locations.

Pang Xiao understood Li Qitian's intention and whispered: "Is Your Majesty worried that Prince Yan still has contact with Dayan's old ministers?"

Li Qitian nodded and said: "This is one. The other point is the most important point. I am worried that if I let him go this time, he will find the treasure by himself, then take the treasure as his own, recruit troops and fight with me again." Enemy. In that case, I will really let the tiger go back to the mountains."

Pang Xiao couldn't help but smile when he heard the words: "Holy sage, sage, everything has been omitted, how can something like what you said happen again. Don't worry, I will do my best to complete the errand."

"Very good, I believe in you. This is your first time leading the Longxiang Army to send troops, so you have to be careful and cautious. I will arrange a capable deputy general for you, who is a talent among the original Longxiang Army. Don’t overwork yourself, just ask him to do it if you have something to do.”

Even the nails were blatantly inserted!

"Yes. I obey the order." Pang Xiao saluted respectfully, showing no emotion at all about Li Qitian's arrangement, and just obeyed the instructions.

Li Qitian's goal was achieved, and he continued to act impatiently. He just smiled and gave Pang Xiao some instructions, and said: "You should go back early and arrange for the princess to get ready. Is she feeling better now?"

Pang Xiao frowned slightly and said with some concern: "She is not in good health. Maybe she suffered too much in the early years and her foundation was damaged. The imperial doctor prescribed a prescription for her to nurse her back to health."

Li Qitian didn't really care about Qin Yining, he was just being polite. Seeing Pang Xiao so sad, he had no choice but to patiently comfort him a few more times before ordering Li Guanwen to see Pang Xiao off.

Pang Xiao bowed respectfully and left the imperial study, and walked along the long palace road one after another with Li Guanwen.

The ground is paved with bluestone bricks, and stubborn grass stretches out from many gaps. The red walls and green tiles separate the blue sky into a long and narrow space.

Pang Xiao thought for a moment and then said: "General Manager Li, during this time when the king is away from the capital, Your Majesty will have to worry a lot about General Manager Li. If Your Majesty takes care of himself, --\u003e\u003e

You can help and persuade me, and don't make the Holy One too hard. If a large court has to rely on the Holy One for support, what will happen if he is sick? Wouldn't it mean that the court would be in chaos? "

"What the prince said is true," Li Guanwen looked at Pang Xiao with emotion, and said: "After all, it is the prince who knows how to care about the Holy One. I have been following the Holy One all day long, so I know the hard work of the Holy One. Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best." Live your life well and serve your Majesty.”

"With General Manager Li here, I have nothing to worry about. Goodbye then."

Pang Xiao and Li Guanwen politely handed over their hands and left quickly.

Li Guanwen stood there, watching Pang Xiao walk away, then returned to the imperial study with a smile, and casually said Pang Xiao's concern for the Holy Emperor.

Li Qitian just smiled after hearing this. He didn't seem to take it to heart or take it seriously.

When Pang Xiao returned to the palace with Hu Zi, Qin Yining had already received the news that he would accompany Pang Xiao on the trip.

The news came so suddenly that Qin Yining was stunned for a moment, but Li Qitian's little thoughts were obvious, and she understood the relationship after a brief thought.

Since it was an imperial edict, she could not resist it no matter what. The emperor arranged for her to accompany Pang Xiao, which was in line with her wishes. Even if the emperor did not arrange it, she would find a way to disguise herself and follow Pang Xiao. Not only because the newlyweds were reluctant to leave, but the most important thing was because this trip would definitely not be as simple as disaster relief.

Qin Yining called Ji Yun over and whispered in her ear: "Go to Shopkeeper Zhong Da and tell him that I asked him to buy the spices from Mrs. Liao a while ago. I want to use them now. Please ask Shopkeeper Zhong Da." Pull the strings, I want to meet Mrs. Liao. Also, go home and tell my father that I want to meet Mrs. Cao. "

When Ji Yun heard this, his face straightened, and he immediately went out to do things as ordered.

Pang Xiao stood by the door for a long time, listening to Qin Yining's instructions. He smiled and came closer to ask: "What spices do you want? There seems to be some spices and bait in our warehouse. I'll look for it later. Come give it to you.”

When Qin Yining heard this, he couldn't help but smile and pinch Pang Xiao's earlobe.

His earlobes looked blessed, and the base of his ears was surprisingly soft.

She was addicted to pinching, and said with a smile: "I don't want any spices. You know the Qingtian League, right?"

Pang Xiao hugged her waist, rested his face on her shoulder, and said softly: "Of course I know."

Qin Yining said: "That Mrs. Liao is from the Qingtian League. She is the person I use to contact several hall leaders of the Qingtian League."

"Sister Yi, you..."

"You don't know that I am the leader of the Qingtian League, right? Although the Yan Dynasty is now dead, most of the people of the Qingtian League have re-registered in the Yellow Book, changed their minds and become the subjects of the Great Zhou Dynasty. But those led by the Qingtian League , no matter which emperor they are, they will only regard them as rebellious officials and traitors, so now they are all black households without yellow records, they dare not show their presence, and they only do some business on the Tatar border."

Pang Xiao never expected that Qin Yining would reveal all her trump cards to him. Not to mention how powerful she was, her trust and true feelings were enough to move Pang Xiao.

He felt as if he was immersed in warm water, and that warm water was Qin Yining's embrace.

He touched her cheek with his cheek, and his breath blew in her ear: "You call the person from the Qingtian League, do you have any plans?"

Qin Yining was provoked by his breath and went straight into his arms, panting slightly: "I'm just in case, because I think this trip is not simple, the Holy Lord should have a back-up plan, it is for the treasure.

"The soldiers you are going to take with you this time are all Long Xiang's troops. And given the suspicion of the Holy Emperor, he will never let you contact the people in Long Xiang's army alone. Therefore, he will definitely place some troops in Long Xiang's army. A big nail, and letting this nail come into contact with you can be regarded as controlling you.

"That would be too passive. I don't want you to be directly under their blades."

Pang Xiao was moved and smiled and said: "My wife is really smart and capable. I don't want to be a prince anymore. I just want to be your husband at home and eat your soft rice and tofu. You say how good this is."

Qin Yining could hear the seriousness in Pang Xiao's words. She understood that it wasn't that Pang Xiao didn't want to make progress, but he was just too tired.

"There will be a chance in the future. Then let's go find a place where no one will disturb us and live like this."

"You can eat tofu any way you want?" Pang Xiao was very moved, but he still couldn't help teasing her.

Qin Yining's face turned red when he said that. She pinched his ears and said, "We are talking about serious matters. Why are you like this?"

Seeing that not only her face but also her neck were red from being teased, Pang Xiao smiled and said: "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. I need to contact the people from the Qingtian League. It's understandable. Then your father's bodyguard, Mrs. Cao, She must have been your aunt."

"Well, she is the leader of the Silver-faced Secret Agent. You should have heard about it. Besides, Daxue and the four of them around me are all Silver-Faced Secret Agents. This time I go out, I want the people from the Qingtian League and the Silver-Faced Secret Agent to People are secretly coordinating us. Because you in the army, including your Jinghu Guards, will probably be monitored by the Longxiang Army. Without capable people around you, you will be too passive."
