Chapter 871: The Return Trip

"I remember."

When it comes to this, I will feel scared after so long. Qin Yining told him that there was not enough water in the desert that day, and Siqin was reluctant to let his men die, so he naturally wanted to discard the rest of the irrelevant people, if they were not lucky enough to catch up with Anari Khan, the next one to be thrown away would be Qin Yining.

"What do you mean......"

"I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to tell if it were anyone else, but this man's voice was so special, he was one of those who was abandoned in the desert that day.

At that time, Siqin threw Mrs. Liao and her two cronies into the desert, and they had already been punished a little for asking them where the treasure was, and if it weren't for the desert at that time, Siqin and his men would never have let them go so easily in order to save their strength.

"When they were driven away, they were already short of water, they were wounded, and they could not find their way in the desert. But now the man has survived. ”

Qin Yining pondered while muttering in a low voice: "I don't know how many people they left the desert that day. Did they all survive, or did he be the only one who survived? Also, Mrs. Liao knew the information about the treasure of the day, and her subordinates should also know it. Then this person wants to buy the magistrate of Huichuan County......"

Speaking of this, Qin Yining slowly raised his head, and his clear eyes looked at Xiao Xiao incredulously.

Xiao Xiao also had the same expression, "You mean, the treasure may be in the ......"

Qin Yining nodded heavily, "Apart from this reason, I can't think of any other reason for him to spend a lot of money to buy the county officials of Huichuan County to do it." The saint pruned the mausoleum in Huichuan County and built a lot of buildings, it is by no means a place where you can live as an official in peace, I don't know in the court, there are at least two magistrates in a year. ”

"Exactly. At the beginning of the practice of the saint, people selected the feng shui treasure to build the mausoleum, the selected is Huichuan County, but the war continues, first the matter of the Southern Yan Dynasty, and the northern Tatar offense, and the earth dragon turned over, coupled with the emptiness of the treasury of the war for many years, the silver of the Holy Inner Treasury is almost used up, this mausoleum is naturally a stop today, and it will be restored tomorrow.

"Besides, as you said, the officials of the previous dynasties who repaired the imperial tombs did not end well, and the previous prime minister, Huichuan, was dismissed because of the unfavorable project, and the local magistrate was also beheaded for the gold and silver of the imperial tomb. Since the last governor was beheaded, Huichuan County has not had a trusted county order. ”

Xiao Xiao told Qin Yining about Huichuan County, and the more he talked about it, the more convinced he became of Qin Yining's guess.

"Even if the treasure is not in Huichuan County, it may be related to Huichuan County. Otherwise, no one would be stupid enough to hit the knife edge by themselves. ”

"That's what I thought, too."

With such an analysis, both of them had a bit of excitement in their expressions.

It's really hard to find a place to break through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it. For the sake of the treasure, how many people tried their best to get no clues, but they went out and got such clues.

Xiao Xiao picked up Qin Yining and let him sit on his strong arm like a child.

"You're really my lucky star."

Qin Yining snorted softly, hurriedly hugged Xiao Xiao's neck, squinted his eyes and said, "This is not a clue yet, don't be too happy, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment." ”

"Yes. Before, our eyes were black, but now we have found a clue, which is a major breakthrough. Xiao Xiao hugged Qin Yining and paced in the house, not tired at all, "You say, who can be so capable, when he intercepted the treasure, he actually bypassed the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty all the way, and sent it directly to the north without knowing it." ”

"I think it's incredible, too." Qin Yining patted Xiao Xiao's arm and motioned for him to let himself down, "But the treasure may not be there, you can order someone to investigate it first." ”

Xiao Xiao put Qin Yining down, held her waist with both hands, and kissed her on the cheek, "I know, I'll let people go later." It's just that the people I brought around me are all Jinghu Guards, if you talk about fighting, they are a nest of tigers going down the mountain, but if you talk about the kung fu of exploration, in the end it is not stronger than the penetration ability of the Blue Sky Alliance. It's just that...... Today's Qingtian Alliance, I don't know if it can still be trusted. ”

After all, Mrs. Liao is a member of the Blue Sky League. If it doesn't involve treasures, when Qin Yining has the same interests as them, everything will naturally be fine. But when it comes to treasures, none of them can guarantee that the Blue Sky Alliance has no dissent. Even when the Qingtian Alliance followed Qin Yining to help Li Qitian recapture the palace, it was because they had common interests and goals, so that the Qingtian Alliance could get out of the shadows and no longer be a Jianghu organization, but an existence recognized by the Heavenly Family.

Qin Yining lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, and said, "Your words reminded me, let me observe for a while." The bigger the organization, the more people there are, the more uneven the hearts become. The leaders can be trusted, but the following alliances are not necessarily good. ”

Xiao Xiao nodded, "That's what you said." Now that the conditions are allowed, let Jinghuwei investigate first. Maybe it will be rewarding. ”

"Hmm. We're almost done, when will we get back? ”

"Missed the kids?" The owl looked at her with a low lean.

Qin Yining nodded, lowered his eyes and leaned on his shoulder, "Although I am very happy to play with you outside, but the children are not around, what do I think is missing, with them, there are more things that make me worry." ”

Xiao Xiao's big hand patted her back, and for a moment the guilt in his heart almost turned into a tide and drowned him.

After all, it was because of him that she was tired, and she was displaced, and she couldn't just guard the children and her family like ordinary women, she had to do far more than those women, a hundred times more than them, not to mention the danger. If the family understands, it's okay, but she has such a mother-in-law......

Xiao Xiao lowered his head and kissed Qin Yining's forehead again and again, pity and guilt, but it was useless to repeat many words, but it would make Qin Yining uncomfortable, and maybe he would have to comfort her upside down.

"Don't worry, when Qincha takes office, we will go back as soon as possible. There are two grandmothers in the family, and the whole family loves them, and they must be living very well and safely. ”

Qin Yining nodded and answered obediently.

In the following days, in addition to arranging for someone to go to Huichuan County to investigate what was abnormal in the county, Xiao Xiao still took Qin Yining to eat and drink at Lu's house.

Lu Zheng still didn't give up on Qin Yining, but he didn't continue to be straightforward as before, only occasionally meeting in the mansion, or he still called the two of them to audit if he had business.

Qin Yining knew that this person wanted to show off in front of her, and she was even more reluctant to pay attention to him. But the more he ignored it, the more Lu Zheng seemed to care.

Time flies, more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and on this day, Lu Zheng ordered Lu Xilai to invite Xiao Xiao and Qin Yining to go to the front hall to talk.

Xiao Xiao covered his mouth and yawned, and tightened the fur-collared cloak on his shoulders, "Is it difficult for your young master to let me go to the business of escort again?" I don't understand, is it better that I go, and the business is more likely to be negotiated? ”

Lu Xi pursed his lips and secretly said that this person's face is really thick enough, and he doesn't know where he got his confidence.

"Young Master Wan, please. The eldest young master must have something good to ask you for. ”

Qin Yining, who was on the side, took the cloak handed by Jiyun and put it on, looked at Lu Xi's expression, and then analyzed the meaning of his words, and had a rough guess.

Counting the days, eighty percent of the things that arranged the Qin mission have been done, right?

Obviously, Xiao Xiao also guessed, his narrow phoenix eyes narrowed, raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay." Since it's a good thing, of course you're going, I can't say that your young master still finds good wine and invites this young master to eat. ”

Xiao Xiao pulled Qin Yining, tidied up the white rabbit fur collar of the cloak for her, and strode out.

From the guest house to the front hall, he had already walked the light road, and Lu Xi, who wanted to lead the way, was completely ignored, so he could only follow behind the two with his hands copied.

In the front hall, Lu Zheng wore a tooth-white brocade wide-sleeved robe, a gray squirrel fur collar cloak on his shoulders, a net scarf on his head, a white hosta to fix his hair bun, and stood on the ground with his hands in his head.

When I saw that the person arrived, my eyes couldn't help but fall on the beauty I wanted to get.

She wore a cloak with a white fur collar that made her skin even more radiant.

"Young Master Lu, I heard Lu Xi say that you have something good here?" Xiao Xiao asked with a big grin.

Lu Zheng bowed his head and said: "Yes, I have received the news that the imperial court has selected the old capital of Lu Tingzhong, a member of the Ministry of Officials, and the matter has been done." ”

"Really?" Surprise.

Lu Zheng said: "This will naturally not be wrong. ”

"Good, good!" Xiao Xiao rubbed his hands again and again, turned around excitedly, and said: "It's done, then I'm ready to leave for the old capital." Let's agree that when the matter is done, will you send a big treasurer with me? I'm going to punish you, so you can quickly get the right people to choose. ”

Lu Zheng was already impatient when he saw him so unstable, and then he looked at Ning Niangzi who was also looking forward to leaving immediately, and he became more and more displeased.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Could it be that my Lu family is not well entertained? ”

"Where, let us live in the fairy palace, we will get tired of it after a long time." Xiao Xiao waved his hand and said, "But these days in your house, we eat well and live well, and I don't pay attention to it." It's really hard for you. In the future, when you have the opportunity to go to the old capital, this young master will definitely treat you with the friendship of the landlord. ”

Lu Zheng sneered, disapproving with his words, and only asked Qin Yining gently: "Ning Niangzi will not stay for a few more days?" ”

"Thank you Young Master Lu for your kindness, the slave naturally wants to follow my young master."

Lu Zheng nodded and didn't ask any more.

Xiao Xiao said goodbye to Lu Zheng, and immediately took Qin Yining back to the guest house to sort out his luggage, and immediately moved back to the building boat to prepare for departure.

Seeing their backs walking away, Lu Xicai cautiously asked, "Young Master, why don't you tell Young Master Wan about Ning Niangzi?" Presumably, with the current situation, Young Master Wan should not refuse if you open your mouth. ”

Lu Zheng snorted: "What's the point of this?" In the future, I will let her come and beg me to take her in. ”

Turning around, Lu Zheng's expression was determined to win, "Let Yuan Yujiang get ready, go find Wanjia's boat and let them set off together." I was anxious to remind Yuan Yujiang to act carefully and not to spoil my business. ”

Lu Xi immediately nodded in response and quickly went down to do something.
