Chapter 14
When Tong Fengyi arrived in the back garden, he happened to see Tong Yuqing and Qiu Yi rolling to the ground, and the two ladies were rolling around on the grass regardless of their image, laughing and playing, which was really unseemly. But seeing them smiling so happily, I couldn't bear to come up and disturb them. When he and Zeyuan were crazy together, they were much more indulgent than them, because they were beaten and scolded a lot because of this, but they still didn't change their minds. Compared to them, Dai Xun Dai is much quieter, and she is very pleasing to the elders...... Tong Fengyi fixed his memory on that period of youthful and carefree time, and did not allow himself to think about it anymore.
When Qiu Yiyou and Tong Yuqing couldn't make a fuss and lay flat on the grass, Tong Fengyi walked over to call someone. Qiu Yiyou and Tong Yuqing were taken aback, and hurriedly got up from the ground and stood up. Tong Fengyi looked at the funny appearance of the two children, and laughed out loud with a "poof", Qiu Yiyou and Tong Yuqing looked at each other blankly, and then understood the reason why Tong Fengyi couldn't help laughing. Although there was no lush grass on the grass in early winter, there was no lack of slightly pale dead grass stumps. Not only that, Qiu Yiyou has two more "horns" on his head, and Tong Yuqing also has a few "cat whiskers" on her face. The two of them were so embarrassed in an instant that they couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into, but Tong Fengyi was here, and the two were embarrassed to leave. How could Tong Fengyi not see their thoughts? So he issued a "pardon": "Go wash and change your clothes!" How can the eldest lady of the two families be so formless? ”
Tong Yuqing glared fiercely at her father, who was obviously gloating but pretending to be serious, and pulled Qiu Yi into the room quickly......
Time is always a strange thing, when you are comfortable and leisurely, you will feel it fly by like quicksand, and when you are in a hurry, you will feel like a bird crossing the sky, leaving no trace. The three-month period has arrived, and Tong Yuqing and Bai Qiaoxuan's life without day and night has also come to an end temporarily. Regarding Tong Yuqing and Bai Qiaoxuan's actions in the Financial Department in the past three months, Tong Fengyi was noncommittal, as if nothing had happened in the past three months, and everything continued in an orderly manner according to the arrangement of the two. Tong Yuqing returned to his previous life of doing everything himself, no matter how big or small, and Bai Qiaoxuan was arranged to be by Qiu Lingxiong's side, and he temporarily served as the director of the Yejin Garrison with him for three months. Originally, Bai Qiaoxuan and Tong Yuqing thought that it was just a ploy by Qiu Zeyuan and Tong Fengyi to find out the traitor, but now they seem to understand the intentions of the elders, in addition to investigating the traitor, they should also be to investigate Bai Qiaoxuan's ability to see whether he is suitable for the military or politics, so as to arrange a place for him to live in the future.
On this day, Tong Yuqing was looking through the resumes of everyone in the division, and her maid Yao Yao suddenly rushed over, whispered a few words in her ear, and secretly stuffed her with a very short secret letter.
Seeing the words as they are, it is extremely urgent! Please go to Room 210, No. 178 Yongde Road.
There was no payment, but Tong Yuqing could already see who the person was from the handwriting. Although she was confused about Qiu Linghe's intentions, she still hurriedly packed her documents and rushed to the place where he arranged to meet.
In order to hide his whereabouts, Tong Yuqing did not use the driver in the financial secretary, but called a rickshaw and told him to go to No. 180 Yongde Road, and then made sure that no one was following him, and then walked to No. 178 by himself.
But she didn't find room 210 in No. 178, because the entire second floor was an abandoned warehouse, and just when she was confused, she was suddenly dragged by a person, and before she could exclaim, the man covered her mouth. She fixed her eyes and saw that the person who blocked her mouth was Qiu Linghe, and secretly relieved herself. She signaled to Qiu Linghe that she would be quiet and not make a sound, Qiu Linghe put down his hand, he checked again to see if anyone was following or snooping, and after making sure that there was not, he walked to a pile of sacks and moved them away one by one, Tong Yuqing saw that there was a door behind the sacks, Qiu Linghe took out the key and opened the door, and invited Tong Yuqing to enter.
After covering the sack and locking the door, Qiu Linghe turned his head and apologized to Tong Yuqing: "I'm sorry, I wronged you for coming to such a vulgar place." But the matter was urgent, and I really didn't have time to prepare anything. ”
"It's okay, at least you've cleaned up a place where you can sit down." Saying that, Tong Yuqing pointed to the only two clean chairs in the room, and said, "If you have something, just talk about it." We're not 100% safe here either. ”
"Give me the note in your hand first, and I'll burn it, so I don't forget it when I'm done talking."
Tong Yuqing said as she handed the note to Qiu Linghe, "It was still sealed when it came into my hands, and neither the messenger you sent nor Yao Yao should have opened it." The two of us should know the contents of the note. ”
"It just should, not necessarily. But if the two of us are discovered, it can only be the problem of the two of them. Qiu Linghe said that he had already lit the note, and watched it completely turn into a small pile of ashes before sitting down.
"What I'm going to say may sound a little unpleasant to you, but please don't interrupt me no matter what you hear, and tell me what you think after I'm done."
Tong Yuqing bowed his head.
"Three months ago, Lu Jingwu sneaked into Pudong quietly on the night Bai Qiaoxuan arrived in Yejin and kidnapped you and Bai Qiaoxuan. I know that both my father and Uncle Tong suspect that it was me or Qiu Lingwei who colluded with Puxi to create civil strife. The only thing I knew at the time was that I wasn't the one who betrayed Pudong. The only way I can think of is to find out the inner ghost to prove my innocence. So I started with Lu Tiansheng's house in the eastern suburbs and found out that the landlord was a man named Zhang Shun. This Zhang Shun is just an ordinary farmer, how can he have such a magnificent mansion? So I sorted out Zhang Shun's interpersonal relationship again, and found out that one of Zhang Shun's cousins was the eighth aunt of Yu Liansheng, the owner of Minghe Yuji Watch Company......"
Hearing this, Tong Yuqing already roughly knew Qiu Linghe's intention to find her today, but she had already promised not to interrupt him, so he continued to finish telling what happened.
"Yu Liansheng is not the key to this matter, the key is his brother-in-law! Yu Liansheng's brother-in-law is Liu Zhenning, a senior member of the Financial Secretary, and Liu Zhenning was introduced to the Financial Secretary by Deputy Secretary Tong. I have no disrespect for your uncle, but I have found him step by step, and I can't stop there. You also know that I have been fighting with Qiu Lingming for many years, and I can't hide it, I have my internal response by his side. I didn't care about it at the time, thinking that he was just trying to win over a network in the Financial Secretary, but now I can't help but pay attention, because I have checked Qiu Lingling's traces in the past year, and he and Liu Zhenning often get together, including at the beginning of each month, they have to meet at the Xinrong Hotel, and the deputy director of the party at the Xinrong Hotel has participated in six times...... You should understand what I'm trying to say, right? ”
"Understood. Thank you for reminding me, I'll be paying attention, and I'll be reminding my father and the Overseers. You have to be careful yourself. ”
Qiu Linghe originally thought that Tong Yuqing would be disgusted with his suspicion of her uncle, but he didn't expect that Tong Yuqing didn't have the slightest intention of wanting to protect her shortcomings, and she responded calmly, rationally and seamlessly. She was too calm, but it made him feel uneasy.
"Yuqing, you believe what I said, don't blame me?" Qiu Linghe inquired.
Tong Yuqing stood up and prepared to leave, and said with a light smile: "Brother Linghe, don't think too much, and don't think that if you find out about my uncle, I will blame you." We are all people who are going to be in high positions in the future, and no one can believe in the truth, you know, and I understand. ”
Tong Yuqing sighed in her heart again, in fact, I have just understood this truth, like my uncle, there is a day when my uncle betrays the family, who else dare to trust in this world?
Qiu Linghe shook his head and smiled bitterly, "You are the one who will definitely be in a high position." And I, Cheng, stand side by side with you to expand the rivers and mountains together. Defeat is ...... If I lose, the horse leather shroud on the battlefield should be my best destination......"
In fact, everyone understands the truth, but it is another taste to really listen to what people say. Tong Yuqing was sad for a while, standing at the door and didn't want to answer, but the moment he held the handle, he panicked in his heart, "No matter what others do, I, Tong Yuqing, will devote my life to loyalty to Overseer Qiu." ”
After speaking, Tong Yuqing opened the door, but before she could take a step, she fell heavily into Qiu Linghe's arms, Qiu Linghe hugged her tightly from behind, and was speechless for a long time, only heavy breathing lingered in Tong Yuqing's ears. Tong Yuqing didn't make any struggles, which surprised Qiu Linghe, but he didn't want to dwell on this issue at this time. On weekdays, there are too many true and false, complicated people and things that he needs to identify, and he doesn't want to rack his brains to face the girl he likes at this moment.
I don't know how long it took, Tong Yuqing heard a hoarse voice with a slight choked voice, "I know that no matter what I say now, you won't really believe me, but I still have to say it, I'm really afraid, I'm afraid that if I don't say it again, I won't have a chance to say it to you in the future." The path to the throne was chosen by me, and I have no regrets about the success or failure of life or death for the position of Overseer. ”
Qiu Linghe let go of Tong Yuqing and made her turn around, looked into her eyes and said, even though she lowered her head and didn't look at him, "But Yuqing, I like you, I really like you, since you and I were very young, I ...... I'm a rough guy and don't say anything pretty. I just want you to know that I like you, not just because you're Miss Tong......"
Tong Yuqing suppressed the mixed feelings in her heart, and hurried away without saying a word......
