Qu Xin was concerned about Liang Yue'er, and asked Su Qin anxiously: "Then the prime minister thinks that Miss Yue'er must know more intelligence clues than others?" ”

Su Qin nodded, and immediately decided to tighten the protection of Liang Yue'er, and also to be wary of her unusual behavior. He replied to Qu Xin: "I think it is so, if she is not unusual, how can she pay more attention to what the Lin Hu people say than others. Those words are nothing more than drunken words in the ears of those who have no intention of listening. ”

Qu Xin defended Liang Yue'er and said: "But the drunken words of the Lin Hu people provided by Miss Yue'er at that time just reminded us, so it can be seen that she should be on our side." ”

Su Qin said: "In any case, since Miss Yue'er is so unusual, then we must strengthen protection and vigilance against her, no matter whether Miss Liang Yue'er is an enemy or a friend, in short, it is right for us to be careful." ”

Qu Xin asked again: "The last general is willing to take on this task, please allow me to take someone to protect Miss Yue'er, and observe her movements by the way." ”

When Zhou Shao heard about Liang Yue'er's mystery, his curiosity was also aroused, and he also asked Su Qin for his life: "The prime minister is compatible, and the last general is also willing to take on the task of monitoring Liang Yue'er, and he will never show favoritism." ”

As soon as Qu Xin heard Zhou Shao's words, he became angry in his heart, and thought, "Aren't you making trouble?" If you don't show favoritism, will I not be favoritism! He glared at Zhou Shao fiercely several times, and sat there angrily, although he didn't say it, but the complaint was written on his face.

Su Qin saw Qu Xin's annoyance, and he said: "This task should be handed over to General Qu Xin, after all, he has a friendship with Liang Yue'er, it is easier to approach, and he can find out the deep secrets." As for General Zhou Shao, you will have other important tasks in the future. ”

Su Qin finally assigned the task to Qu Xin, and Qu Xin breathed a sigh of relief at this time and said, "Prime Minister rest assured, the last general will definitely live up to his mission." ”

After receiving the order, Qu Xin went to Langhuaxuan, where the kabuki lived, that night, rearranged the patrol troops, and stipulated that the guards in three shifts should take turns to guard around Langhuaxuan, and once they found any movement, they would immediately report to themselves. Qu Xin himself rested for the time being in another courtyard called Xingmingxuan near Lang Hua Xuan.

Su Qin returned to his residence, and before he undressed and went to bed, he took out the hidden weapon in the shape of a flying knife again, and carefully inspected the details of it, he always felt that he had seen something similar somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

After a night of hard work, Su Qin felt exhausted, and it was the critical moment before the convening of the Huanshui Conference of the Hezong Alliance, but he encountered troubles that seemed to be inexhaustible. This is not only the effort of energy, but also psychological torture.

What made Su Qin feel distressed and funny the most was that he went out of the mountain for the second time to lobby Yan, Zhao and other countries, starting from Yan and ending with Zhao, it has been five or six years since he first said that Zhao Hou and Zhao Yu supported Hezong, just when he thought that Zhao Hou was determined to support Hezong, he just saw that Zhao Hou still had a trace of hesitation in his heart.

Any undertaking is very difficult, and Su Qin has long been prepared for this, but the constant vacillation and suspicion of the princes involved in the alliance is really tiresome.

Su Qin thought of the two precious younger brothers of Zhao Hou when he first arrived in Zhao State, Fengyangjun Zhao Cheng and Xuanyangjun Zhao Yun, who opposed him everywhere, not only suffered repeated risks, but were almost poisoned and assassinated, and took their lives. Since his debut, he has died nine times and has come to this day, and he is the face of the Six Nations, but sometimes he still feels so powerless.

Su Qin held the flying knife, thinking about his thoughts, and unconsciously sighed: "The world is only manpower, and no one can escape the time of day!" ”

However, at this moment, he suddenly recalled the assassination he had encountered in the official residence outside the Handan Palace, that assassin was the senior brother of the Liulu Sword of the Zhao State martial arts sect, named Bai Yong, and the weapon he used in his hand back then was not somewhat similar to this flying knife?

Su Qin took a closer look at the hidden weapon in his hand, and he could see that it was similar to the dagger used by Bai Yong, but the dagger used by Bai Yong was only one size bigger than the flying knife in terms of specifications.

However, at that time, Bai Yong used a dagger to stab, but Su Qin blocked it with the Qingshuang Sword, and the two fought for a while, in a hurry, although Su Qin did not understand the detailed characteristics of the dagger. However, when life and death were hanging by a thread, the appearance of the dagger that stabbed straight at him was deeply imprinted in his mind.

Although Su Qin couldn't be sure that this flying knife came from the Liulu Sword, this was a rare clue after all, and it was worth following this clue until there was more conclusive evidence to disprove this inference.

Su Qin made up his mind, so that he could sleep peacefully for a while. When he woke up the next day, he sent someone to call Miss Chen Dan.

Chen Dan entered Su Qin's house, bent down and gave a salute, then covered his chest with his hand, looked scared, and said: "I was scared to death last night, such a bright flying knife flew over at the musician and dance class, thanks to General Qu Xin's rescue, otherwise someone would have died on the spot." ”

Su Qin looked at Chen Dan and made a gesture to sit down, asking her to sit down in the guest seat opposite her. Chen Dan secretly looked at Su Qin and found that he didn't seem to show a look of surprise or panic, so she calmed down a little.

Su Qin said: "After I came back from last night, I heard a report from General Qu Xin. Your music and dance class was frightened, how are you feeling now? ”

Chen Dan replied: "Although it can't be said that people are panicking, everyone is still worried, for fear that the assassin will come to seek revenge again. Last night, General Qu Xin sent more people to patrol, and the soldiers were much more down-to-earth. ”

Su Qin said: "After I came back, I specially appointed General Qu Xin to personally protect the safety of the music and dance class, with him, you will be much safer, and there should be no more major disturbances." ”

Chen Dan didn't know what happened to Lu Dao last night, she heard that Qu Xin finally went out to protect the music and dance class in person, and a little relief appeared on her face, and she said: "It's good now, with General Qu Xin patrolling, the assassin will also be terrified." As soon as he got out of his horse last night, he scared the two stabbing fellows away. ”

Chen Dan disdained Liang Yue'er's behavior, and said: "I knew that Prime Minister Su Dao would still arrange Qu Xin to protect the music and dance class, so why did Liang Yue'er refuse Qu Xin's kindness so coldly, and now it's not a result?" ”

Chen Dan mentioned Liang Yue'er, and Su Qin happened to take advantage of the situation, and he asked tentatively: "I also heard that Miss Liang Yue'er rejected General Qu Xin." I don't know who the assassin was who had gone to great lengths to come to the peach garden? Could it be that Liang Yue'er girl can't do it? ”

Chen Dan nodded vigorously and said affirmatively: "The prime minister is like a god, I saw that the flying knife went straight to Liang Yue'er, but she still denied it. It must be that she looks like she is coldly rejecting people thousands of miles away all day long, and she has offended the people outside. ”

After listening to Chen Dan's words, Su Qin couldn't help frowning, and he thought to himself: "If Chen Dan is so sure that the target of the assassination is Liang Yue'er, it should be certain of this." But where would anyone take such a big risk to assassinate in order to be jealous or to take a sip of pleasure? ”

Su Qin shook his head and quickly denied the reason for Chen Dan's speculation. Chen Dan saw Su Qin shaking his head, and he didn't know what he meant, so he didn't dare to say more.

After a while, Su Qin said to Chen Dan, "Do you remember that Butcher Niu San of the Liulu Sword back then?" I don't know if you've seen him again since that incident. ”

Chen Dan glanced at Su Qin aggrievedly, and said: "What did the prime minister say, I was just trying to assassinate Bai Yong of the prime minister, so I played with Niu San and gave me a little good look, since then, even if Niu San comes to me with ten thousand yuan of money, I will not pay attention to him." ”

Su Qin saw that Chen Dan wanted to clear up her relationship with Niu San in front of him, and for Su Qin himself, even if Chen Dan and Niu San were in contact again, Su Qin would not be particularly angry, because for Chen Dan, winning over guests was just a job.

After all, so many people like to come to the peach garden to listen to music and watch dances, and it is not surprising that there are all kinds of people, etc., and there are many fish and dragons. It is not an exaggeration to make a living from singing and dancing, and occasionally to take the initiative to get close to guests for the sake of livelihood. Even if it is Niu San, as long as he comes to the peach garden to spend money and have fun normally, why not.

Chen Dan's intention was to show in front of Su Qin that she was not completely plotting for the money of the guests, but a female servant who did everything, Su Qin naturally understood her intentions, but next, Su Qin needed Chen Dan to act as a person who seduced Niu San with charm again.

Su Qin didn't know how to say what he thought, he groaned, his face embarrassed. Chen Dan asked with concern: "Seeing that Prime Minister Su's face is full of gloomy clouds, have you encountered anything particularly difficult?" Does this matter have anything to do with Niu San? ”

Su Qin replied: "I don't know if the assassination of Lu Dao has anything to do with Niu San, but I carefully inspected the flying knife, and it feels like it came from the Liulu Sword Gate." ”

Chen Dan is not stupid, she heard Su Qin talk about the connection between the flying knife and the Liulu sword, and that Niu San was originally a person in the Liulu Sword Sect, Chen Dan naturally heard that Su Qin mentioned Niu San because he wanted to start from Niu San and find clues to the flying knife.

Chen Dan didn't refuse Su Qin's thoughts, but if she was asked to take the initiative, she would still be a little embarrassed after all, so she said "oh", and then remained silent.
