Return of the Swallow

In the late night of July 18th, the bright moon hangs high on the branches, casting mottled shadows on the ground of the guest courtyard. Topic Novel Fastest update The Qiu family's village-like mansion is very quiet, with occasional insects chirping in the grass, everything seems quiet and peaceful.

Several guards carrying lanterns passed by the alley outside the courtyard wall, and everyone yawned.

"Don't go to Dongkuayuan. Our Qiufu has been here for more than a hundred years. Xiaoxiao is not blind, who dares to make a mistake in Qiu's house?"

"Anyway, I've never had anything like that happen since I was on a job, except that Liufang got out of the water a while ago, and the master asked someone to shave his head..."

Several nurses covered their mouths and let out a muffled "puchi" laugh.

"That's because their crimes are so deep that God can't see them doing evil, so they are punished like this."

"Shh! The master's private affairs can be discussed too? Don't shut up yet."

The conversation of several people was interrupted by the leader, and after a few casual chats, everyone became more energetic, and went back to rest after completing half of the courtyard.

A moment later, the door of the wing room in the guest courtyard was pushed open without a sound, and a black shadow flashed past, like a black wind in the night, flying away from the edge of the roof wall.

Not long after, there was a commotion from the direction of Liufang, and the orange-red flame instantly lit up the night sky.

In the room, Qin Yining was neatly dressed, with a black cross-collar and short brown to outline her curvy figure, under the snow-white cross-collar was a slender and slender neck, and her long crow-green hair was neatly tied up in a bun on the top of her head. Wearing any jewels and emeralds is neat and sassy.

When Qin Yining bent down to put on the soft boots, Bingtang handed a small porcelain bottle to Qin Yining: "If you encounter any danger later, just sprinkle this medicine on it. This is a special itching powder. Keep the people who get it on it safe." Scratching the skin is not enough."

"Understood. It's just that what if the medicine gets on me?"

"Don't be afraid, the retts just given to the concubine contain antidote ingredients, even if the concubine grabs them with her hands, she won't feel itchy."

Bingtang is good at curing diseases, and is also good at using poison. Recently, he has been obsessed with using itching medicine. Tonight they deliberately made noise in the inner house, just to make a noise and take the opportunity to escape. The medicine can play a big role when the time comes.

"Let's go." The door creaked softly, and Mu Jinghu in black came in, "Everything has been arranged!"

Qin Yining asked in a low voice, "How is it over there?"

"Everyone has already been attracted. Don't worry, I didn't kill anyone. I just beat up the one who was rude to you that day."

Mu Jinghu just beat someone up, she was in a good mood, and her tone was unprecedentedly relaxed.

Seeing how childish he was, Qin Yining really couldn't laugh or cry. Unexpectedly, Mu Jinghu would hold grudges like this, and she still couldn't let go of it after so long, and would have all kinds of seemingly naive ways to get revenge.

Maybe it's because he's used to killing and making decisions. Although Qin Yining doesn't disregard human life, he doesn't have sympathy for those who should be dealt with.

Is she really a cold hearted person now?

Qin Yining didn't say much about Mu Jinghu. Anyway, since Mu Jinghu was able to do this, he must have known it well.

A group of people left the main room of the guest courtyard. The strong Jinghu guards were all carrying burdens on their backs. They were specially prepared for fear that Qin Yining's carriage would not be able to drive away and many things would not be able to be carried.

Jiyun and Bingtang didn't need to bring any luggage at all, and the Jinghu Guards had already taken care of them all.

The route was set by Mu Jinghu a long time ago. When everyone reached the wall, Mu Jinghu said "offended" in a low voice, and led Qin Yining over the wall without saying a word.

Jiyun has his own kung fu, so naturally he doesn't need anyone else to lead him at this moment, he takes a few steps back, and with a quick run-up, he has already jumped up lightly, borrowing some strength from the top of the wall to turn over and jump over.

At the same time, Jinghuwei also jumped over the wall with Bingtang.

Everyone came outside the wall, Mu Jinghu pointed to a direction, and everyone went straight to this direction without making a sound. There was a carriage prepared by Mu Jinghu in advance.

Mu Jinghu's martial arts skills are superb, how many nights he took advantage of people's unpreparedness, quietly left Qiu's house to investigate everywhere, no matter how many nurses in Qiu's house didn't notice.

This time they are going, it is a dilapidated and still ruined temple that Mu Jinghu has chosen on the outskirts of the city.

There are few people here, and there are water sources around. After discussing with Qin Yining, they decided to settle here for the time being, and then find a way to leave Jianchuan City.

"I've also thought about the Chuchuan card, otherwise I'll go to Qiu's house to steal it later." Mu Jinghu said.

Qin Yining shook his head and said, "Do you still remember that after we used the Jinchuan card, we were immediately discovered to be closely related to Qiu Feishan. The people in this city must have some other way to tell the difference. If we rashly steal the Chuan card, maybe people will see it as wrong, and then we will not be free if we detain it at the city gate. If we want to use the Chuan card, we have to think long-term."

Mu Jinghu was stunned, and sighed: "Things are getting more and more complicated. I never thought that it would be difficult to get out after entering Jianchuan."

"Yes. Who would have thought of that." Qin Yining frowned worriedly: "After we came in, we completely cut off contact with the outside world. Something big happened."

"Princess, is that Jingzhe and Xiaoxue?" Jiyun pointed to the person in the bushes by the roadside ahead.

Mu Jinghu glanced at it, and was able to conclude before the other people's vision was timely, "It's them. I came out yesterday and made an appointment with them to meet here."

Talking, everyone has met. Jingzhe and Xiaoxue were very excited when they saw Qin Yining, and bowed their hands together: "Princess, are you okay these days?"

"It's nothing, I'm fine. Let's go to the ruined temple first."

Everyone nodded in unison.

Once the people gathered, Qin Yining's mood also relaxed, and a group of people quickly came to the ruined temple. After checking the surrounding terrain, they confirmed that it was really safe, and then left people to guard outside and settled in the temple.

This temple has not been repaired for an unknown period of time. In the center is a clay bodhisattva with cobwebs hanging from his body, standing in the dilapidated temple with compassionate eyes. A little half of the roof tiles have fallen off, not to mention the dilapidated and mottled walls around, and the lattice windows with only the window frames and no window paper. A ray of bright moonlight shines on the statue of Bodhisattva from the hole in the roof, which makes the place feel a little more peaceful.

Qin Yining looked up at the Buddha statue, then put his hands together and bowed down.

Bingtang and Jiyun also knelt down and saluted.

During the period, Jinghu guards went to collect firewood, Jingzhe lit a fire in the middle of the ground, and spread some hay on the ground.

"We escaped in a hurry, and we will wrong the princess."

"It doesn't matter." Qin Yining smiled, "I used to live in the wild for so many years, and this kind of relief was already very good for me at that time."

Everyone sat down around the fire one after another, and there were two Jinghu guards who felt uneasy and went to guard outside the hall as before.

Qin Yining said, "Everyone, hurry up and recharge your batteries. The Qiu family should have noticed that we are missing. I think they have their eyes and ears everywhere in Jianchuan City, and they will soon find out which direction we are going. Even if they don't know us We have to take a detour in the middle, and we will find it soon, so we can't stay here for long."

"Yes." Jing Zhe and the others all nodded.

Mu Jinghu fiddled with the bonfire with branches, a gust of wind blew by, and sparks flew up in the bonfire.

"I don't know if we can find an opportunity to find the Chuchuan card tomorrow. If there is, we have to disguise ourselves as a way. If not, I'm afraid there is still a tough battle to fight. Everyone should save their energy."

"What Mr. Mu said is true. Let's take turns to rest tonight." Dahan nodded, and they discussed with the Jinghuwei brothers around them about taking turns to watch the night.

Seeing that everyone had arranged things in an orderly manner, Qin Yining took a piece of clothing from the bag and rolled it up as a pillow, and slept directly on the hay not far from the fire.

Bingtang and Jiyun looked at each other, but they both hesitated. Bingtang was born as a lady of the family, so she never suffered much. Although Jiyun is lonely, but after following Pang Xiao, even though she has to undergo all kinds of training, her life has always been richer than ordinary ladies, Pang Xiao has never treated them badly.

So they slept directly on the ground with a thin layer of hay, and they didn't know if there were any bugs in the grass or if there were mice in the corners. They couldn't accept such an environment for a while.

But after thinking about it, they began to feel sorry for Qin Yining again.

If he hadn't suffered a lot, who would be able to take this kind of thing for granted? The more Qin Yining adapted well, the sadder they felt.

Bingtang and Jiyun lay on both sides of Qin Yining at the same time, hoping to help Qin Yining block some of the cold wind at night.

The three girls fell asleep head to head.

The men looked at each other, feeling a little uncomfortable. Especially Jing Huwei, who now has both admiration and pity for the princess. They have seen with their own eyes how the prince treats the princess. If the prince is here, how can he be willing to let the princess suffer? If the prince knew that the princess was arrested by the Qiu family and placed under house arrest, and who was in the ruined temple if she had to run for her life, the prince would not feel sorry for her to death!

Thinking about it this way, their dislike for the Qiu family increased a lot.

Contrary to their expectations, the speed of the Qiu family's pursuit was not as fast as they had guessed. At least they had a good night's sleep. Some people went fishing and hunting early in the morning, and Qin Yining had a hearty meal after washing.

Qin Yining didn't dare to take it too seriously, and the group left the ruined temple immediately after eating, looking for the next safe place to live.

It's just that Qin Yining never expected that less than half an hour after they left the ruined temple, the road in front of them was blocked by a group of people.

"Princess Zhongshun, why do you think the humble house is not well received?" Qiu Yuanqing's face was gloomy, "What's wrong with it, just tell us, we only have to obey, why do you have to leave?"
