"My lord, someone in front of you is asking to see you."

"Oh? Who? ”

Qin Duan was a little surprised, someone could find him just after the Partridge Pass, it seems that there are indeed not a few people who pay attention to him.

"He won't say anything, he just wants to talk to you alone."

Song Tianxiong was also a little nervous, the person who came was wrapped tightly all over his body, only two eyes were exposed, judging from the appearance, he should be a man, but it was difficult to say what the purpose was, if it was an assassin, there was no need to take such a ridiculous method.

"Did he say anything about it?" Qin Duru asked with a frown.

"He didn't say much, just said that the topic would definitely interest you."

"Well, that's fine, you let him come."

"My lord, he said that it is inconvenient to talk here, and I hope to be able to talk to you alone in a field far away from the official road."

Song Tianxiong was also a little embarrassed, such an unreasonable request should be refused, but he knew that his master was definitely not a human being, and his thoughts were different, so he still reported it to Qin Duan.

"Oh?" Qin Duan was really interested when he heard this, "Okay, I'll go meet this mysterious visitor." ”

"But my lord, I'm worried about your safety,......" Song Tianxiong hurriedly dissuaded.

"Follow me from afar, don't be too far away, I want to assassinate me by such a clumsy means." Qin Duan didn't care.

"My lord......" Song Tianxiong wanted to say something more, but seeing that Qin Dui had made up his mind, he had to keep his mouth shut.

The Guards first searched the vicinity for anything suspicious, and then formed a circle in the field beside the road, watching from a distance.

Qin Duan looked at the visitor, his whole body was covered by a black robe, and even his face was tightly covered, and he could only be seen from a pair of eyes that he should be from the Great Qin Clan.

"What is the matter with Mr. Li?" Seeing that the person who came was two meters away from him, he consciously stood up. Qin Duan also got straight to the point.

"Master Li, you don't have to ask more about my origin, I just want to ask, have you ever heard of the Taiping Sect?"

The person who came was a hoarse male voice, and because he deliberately changed, Qin Duan couldn't correctly judge how old the person was really old.

"I've heard of it." Qin Duan's sword eyebrows stood up. In my heart, I was also quickly analyzing the meaning of the other party's words.

"Do you know that they have put their hands into their territory?" The voice of the visitor grew deeper.

"Oh? I don't know this, but the people in my territory come from all over the world, and it's normal for them to mix. ”

"Aren't you afraid that they will make waves in your territory?" The people who came to see Qin Duan were not much surprised, and were a little surprised.

"Making waves? That's good, as long as they have the ability, but don't let my people find out. Qin Duan looked nonchalant.

"Lord Qin. I am kind enough to remind you, now that the power of the Taiping Sect is developing rapidly in the west, Guanxi County has almost been controlled by them, and they are also relying on the Longdong region to actively develop to the northwest, don't you want to know the details? The person who came was not angry, but there was a hint of reproach between the words.

"Yes, of course, but I just want to. Will the gentleman sue me? If the gentleman intends to sue me, I don't think I need to say more. Naturally, the gentleman will sue me. Qin Duan was still unhurried.

"Very good, if my lord can do one thing for us, I will immediately tell the Taiping Sect's activities in the northwest and even Longdong County, how about it?" The visitors were also very cheerful.

"What's the matter?"

"It's not the right time, but it won't embarrass adults."

"So how did this deal go through? Even the conditions are not clear, how can the official agree lightly? Qin Duan shook his head slightly.

"If it's something that is difficult for adults. Adults don't do it, and who can force you, don't you say? The visitor chuckled.

"Well, that makes sense, that's good. Let's make a deal. ”

"In a word?"

"It's hard to chase a horse!"

"Okay, pick it up, this is the main disciples of the Taiping Sect in the Northwest and Longdong County and their activities." The person who came gently threw a scroll to Qin Duan.

"Haven't asked Mr. for his name yet?"

"The name is just a code name, why do you have to look like this?" Before the words fell, the visitor drifted away.

Qin Dui, who continued the journey, seemed to have a heart, lying on his back on the carriage, and the amplitude of the bump became larger as the speed of the car increased, but it did not affect Qin Dui's thinking.

It seems that the other party's intelligence work has been done quite solidly, returning to the imperial capital, that is, to the center of the storm in the entire Eastern Continent, all kinds of signs indicate that around this festival Spring Festival, there will definitely be many memorable things happening, the forces of all parties gather in the capital, and the war in the south also affects the interests of all parties, how many conspiracies will be hidden under the prosperous surface of the imperial capital?

Thinking of this, Qin Dui didn't know what kind of feelings he had in his heart now, not only longing for the situation to become as chaotic as possible, but also worried that the situation would be too chaotic and out of control would affect his established strategy, both worried that his return to Beijing would be encircled and suppressed by all forces in the empire and central government, which would make his situation more difficult, and he was afraid that his life would be too dull and uneventful after returning to the imperial capital and he would be too disappointed, this person is really a contradictory unity, Qin Dui deeply stretched his slightly numb arms.

On February 27, the seventeenth year of the Apocalypse, Qin Dui and his entourage finally returned to the long-lost imperial capital Yan~Beijing, looking at the majestic city gate, Qin Dui's heart fluctuated in front of the city gate, and it was more than two years of farewell. But thinking of what he saw and heard along the way, Qin Duan deeply knew that behind this glitz and glamour, there was an inexplicable crisis, the corruption of officials at all levels, the hardships of the people's lives, the looseness of the officers and soldiers of the army, and the development of the crooked ways of the evil sect was like a spark.

Seeing that his master was alone on the side of the road, Song Tianxiong didn't dare to disturb, so he had to be patient, the saline-alkali land was almost noon, and Qin Duan still had no intention of entering the city, Song Tianxiong couldn't help but come behind Qin Dui and asked: "My lord, it's noon, ...... look?"

"Don't worry, let's rest at the inn outside the city tonight, and it's not too late for us to enter the city early tomorrow morning." Qin Duan woke up from his contemplation, shook his head and said, "After dinner, you send someone to the Canglang Study on Fuxing Avenue, give this thing to their person in charge, and then tell them that I will wait for him outside the city." Qin Duan took out a metal mark from his bosom and handed it to Song Tianxiong. (To be continued......)
