"It's broad daylight. What are you talking about?"
Qin Yining blinked and finally understood what Pang Xiao meant. Her cheeks immediately turned red and she pinched his arm.
In Pang Xiao's eyes, her little bit of strength was not much stronger than a mosquito bite. He hugged her slender waist and smelled the faint jasmine fragrance in her hair. Pang Xiao's heart was immediately aroused by her warm and fragrant jade-like body beside him.
He moved closer to Qin Yining's neck and took a deep breath. His voice was hoarse as he said, "Sister Yi, you smell so good."
Qin Yining was so embarrassed that she pushed him away. "Don't be like this. We're in a carriage!"
"I know. I'm just hugging you." Pang Xiao stretched out his strong arms and pulled her to sit on his strong legs. His big hands could not help but misbehave. "Your body smells so good and soft. I like it so much."
Qin Yining panted and pushed his naughty hands away. "Don't be like this."
"Shh. Don't make a sound." He searched for her lips and gently bit them.
The carriage continued to move forward. The tightly closed curtains blocked the view inside the carriage.
When they reached a village and needed to stop for the night, Deputy General You Meng was shocked to find that the people sitting in the carriage were no longer Yuchi Yan and Gu Shixiong.
In a fit of anger, he brandished his sword and was about to kill the substitute. Pang Xiao quickly stepped forward and said, "General You, please wait. Now that you've killed them, are you not going to investigate the clues? "
Only then did You Meng realize that he had been too impulsive and had almost destroyed all the clues.
"Thank you for your advice, Wang Ye." The tall northerner, who was almost forty years old, blushed. He waved his hand and ordered his men to take the two substitutes away for questioning.
"Wang Ye, what should we do next?"
The County King of Yan was the one who led the expedition, but he somehow managed to escape. You Meng did not dare to make a decision and asked Pang Xiao for his opinion instead.
Pang Xiao lowered his gaze and said, "Right now, we need to quickly track down the whereabouts of the County King of Yan and Gu Shixiong. We are not far from the old capital of Dayan. This King is worried that the two of them are after the treasure. Secondly, we should quickly report today's situation to Your Majesty and await Your Majesty's decision. "
You Meng nodded and said, "Wang Ye is right. This general will immediately pass down the order. "
Pang Xiao did not participate in the interrogation of the two substitutes, as they were the County King of Yan's men. However, anyone with a discerning eye would have known that the two lackeys, who could be easily discarded, would not know anything. However, in order to avoid arousing suspicion, Pang Xiao not only kept his distance, but also ordered his subordinates not to get close.
Qin Yining was so tired that she was about to fall asleep. When Pang Xiao returned to the bedroom in the farmhouse where they were temporarily staying, Qin Yining was already lying on her side, half-asleep.
When she heard the light footsteps, she did not even want to open her eyes. She asked in a soft voice, "You're back? You Meng has taken care of everything? "
When Pang Xiao heard her naturally seductive voice, his mind began to wander again. When he looked at her coquettish posture when she was lying on her side, his flesh and bones were about to melt.
"Everything has been taken care of." He sat on the side of Qin Yining's bed, his large hand gently rubbing her back and sliding down suggestively.
Qin Yining stared at him reproachfully, a thin layer of mist forming in her large eyes. She looked like a small animal that had been bullied. She said in a wronged tone, "I'm tired."
She was usually calm, experienced, and resourceful. She often made people forget that she was, in fact, a young girl. It was rare for her to act coquettishly like this.
Now that they were married, she showed her true self in front of him without any reservations. She also had times when she was naughty and lively, and times when she acted coquettishly.
Pang Xiao's heart melted into a puddle of water. He lay down beside her and pulled her into his arms. "Okay, okay, okay. I don't want it anymore. Let's not do it today. I'll hug you to sleep."
Qin Yining pressed her face against his shoulder and nodded tiredly. Not long after, her breathing became even.
Pang Xiao lowered his head and looked at her long eyelashes that trembled as she slept. Her cherry lips were slightly opened, and her long black hair that was scattered on the pillow. He liked it so much that he secretly kissed her forehead.
Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, he simply spread out his hair and used one hand to wrap his hair around her long hair. He also took a nap.
The outside of the village was busy. The 300 Dragon Stallion Army set up camp and started a fire to cook. You Meng even brought people to the forest to urgently interrogate the two substitutes.
However, this small courtyard in the village was unusually peaceful and quiet.
The two substitutes were just scapegoats. How could they get any valuable information from the interrogation? You Meng used all his methods and only found out that the two of them were hired by a young man with the surname Lu. He knew nothing else. Yes.
Yuchi Yan's servant, who had benefited from it, was called Little Lu.
However, Yuchi Yan had already escaped. What was the use of knowing that Yuchi Yan had arranged for Little Lu to hire servants to replace him? If he told Your Majesty, Your Majesty would probably scold them and demote them by three ranks.
You Meng was very anxious.
However, he was here on the orders of the Emperor. He must have his own strengths. He was not someone who could not keep his composure.
The next day, Pang Xiao called Huzi over and whispered a few words. In less than two hours, the people that You Meng sent out to search returned.
"General! Fortunately, we did not disappoint. We found the whereabouts of the County King of Yan. "
"Really?!" You Meng said in surprise.
"Yes. I've already ordered two of my brothers to follow in secret. General, should we depart? "
You Meng felt that the swaying black veil on his head had finally been saved. Even his smile when facing Pang Xiao became more sincere.
"Wang Ye, what do you say?"
"Yes. Then let's follow. We'll follow far behind. As for the matter of disaster relief, the imperial envoy has already escaped. We can only put it aside for the time being and wait for Your Majesty's orders. "
"Yes. Pass down the order. Break camp and depart! "You Meng obeyed.
Pang Xiao wrote a note and sent a carrier pigeon back.
When You Meng saw that Pang Xiao only sent a letter now, he could not help but be surprised. "Wang Ye didn't send a letter yesterday?"
"Your Majesty is busy with state affairs every day. If Your Majesty has to worry about every single thing, wouldn't we be incompetent subjects? The County King of Yan escaped yesterday and we still have no news of his whereabouts. Sending a letter would only increase Your Majesty's worries. Now that we have news of his whereabouts today, Your Majesty will be furious, but he won't be too worried. Besides, you and I will have some time to prepare. "
You Meng smiled and nodded. However, he was lamenting in his heart. 'No wonder he can become a prince at such a young age! How can he be so steady in dealing with people? Why don't I have the same mindset? '
If we only tell Your Majesty that he escaped, Your Majesty will naturally be furious.
However, if we tell Your Majesty that he escaped, we'll follow him in secret. Perhaps we'll find the treasure. Your Majesty will definitely praise us for our courage and wisdom. This will make it seem as if they knew each other and intentionally let the County King of Yan escape.
This is the true way of a subject!
You Meng inadvertently demonized Pang Xiao.
