Imperial County Magistrate

Chapter 314 Return to work
"Why do you see it?" Qing Tong asked hurriedly.

Xueying squinted her eyes, recalling Zhao Kang's previous demeanor: "This person's character is half as Zheng Lingfeng said. He is extremely intelligent, but he is really greedy and lustful."

"The reason why he didn't agree immediately was because he wanted to meet Xiao Linglong before making a decision on whether to agree to us."

"His so-called shock before was just an act. For him, Qian Guo has no real relationship with him. All he thinks about is how to gain benefits from the upcoming changes."

Qing Tong was surprised: "Can you see this?"

"You are not a martial artist, so you don't know."

Xueying said: "Every person's words will carry personal emotions, and these emotions will affect the movement and demeanor of the person speaking. When you have reached my level of cultivation, all you have to do is think."

"All the subtle changes in the face of the person in front of me cannot escape my eyes. This Zhao Long only changed his mood obviously when you said you were willing to give him the sky-high price of 300 million taels."

"And after I said it could be done and gave him Empress Xiao Linglong, his heartbeat at that moment sounded no different to the drums on the battlefield to me."

Xueying said: "So, he has to go to Qian Kingdom to confirm whether the empress is really the most beautiful woman in the world as we said."

Qing Tong sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect you warriors to be so meticulous in observing people."

"It's just a matter of realm. And if I'm observing him, why isn't he observing me?"

Qing Tong was stunned, then realized: "You mean, this Zhao Long is still a hidden master?"

"With the changes in his breathing and the fist cocoons on his hands, he is definitely a master. His cultivation level should be lower than mine."

"How can you see it?" Qing Tong asked.

Xueying sneered: "Because after he realized that I was also a martial artist, he restrained his mind for a moment, and his eyes were no longer so unscrupulous. At the same time, the true energy in his body unconsciously started to move, releasing a momentum that I caught. .”

"And after realizing that my cultivation level might be higher than his, he suppressed his momentum. The reason why I say that Zheng Lingfeng's evaluation of him is not false at all is..."

Xueying said: "The desire in his eyes before he left was like a hungry wolf. Judging from his character, if he really goes to Qian Country to meet the empress, he will definitely agree to our work, and maybe even help us." We don’t know for sure.”

Qing Tong was overjoyed: "If this is really the case, that would be great."

On the other side, Zhao Kang went straight back to Ye Hongxue's Shangshu Mansion after leaving the restaurant.

Both women were waiting for him anxiously, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he returned.

"How?" Ye Hongxue asked.

"Indeed they are."

Zhao Kang sat down and said, "The woman who injured you on the battlefield that day is also here. Her name is Xueying."

Qin Yufeng said hurriedly: "What do they want from you, Master?"

As the canary that Xiao Feiyu once raised, she was well aware of the other party's methods, so she couldn't help but worry about Zhao Kang.

Zhao Kang sneered: "Prince Ning is preparing to rebel. This time I came here as I thought before, just to test Jingguo's attitude and make sure everything is safe."

"I really didn't expect that Prince Ning would actually harbor such wild ambitions." Ye Hongxue sighed.

She had met Xiao Feiyu in the Noble Hall before. At that time, she just thought he was just a member of the Qian Kingdom royal family who was just waiting to die.

This is also the stereotype of Xiao Feiyu that many ministers of the Qian Kingdom have. No one would have thought that the youngest prince of the Xiao family had such an ambition.

Zhao Kang said: "So after all, people can't just look at the surface."

"What are you going to do?" Ye Hongxue hesitated before asking.Zhao Kang: "I want to go back to the Qian Kingdom as an envoy to see if I can take this opportunity to figure out all their plans."

"It's too dangerous!"

Qin Yufeng said hurriedly: "Master, that person is not that easy to deal with. If you go to Qianguo now, it is like going deep into the dragon's pond and tiger's den. Once he discovers your identity, he will definitely kill you at all costs!"

"I know, don't be afraid."

Zhao Kang comforted him softly: "I will ask Senior Wu to accompany me. Besides, I am not that careless. I won't let him catch any flaws. Don't worry."

Ye Hongxue said: "If the prince is following you, you can rest assured. But if you go to Qianguo rashly, others will always be suspicious. You have to find a reason."

Zhao Kang smiled and looked at the other party: "I have thought about it, didn't Qianguo send a batch of steel military equipment a few days ago, so I will go to Qianguo in return."

When Zhao Kang said this, Ye Hongxue understood that he couldn't worry about Xiao Linglong after all, so he didn't want to stop her like Qin Yufeng did.

He nodded and said, "That's fine."

The next day, Zhao Kang entered the palace.

Wu Rulong and others were a little surprised when they heard about his plan to go to Qian Country, but they all understood after Zhao Kang explained.

"Then I will immediately ask someone to make arrangements and prepare a batch of return gifts for you, the Imperial Master, to take back with you."

Zhao Kang said respectfully: "Thank you, Your Majesty. In addition, I have one more request, Your Majesty."

"The Imperial Master doesn't have to be so open-minded, just say so."

Zhao Kangdao: "I hope that your majesty can lend me the trapped soldiers in Jingguo and let them enter Qianguo in batches."

Chen Kai on the side understood: "Is the National Preceptor planning to set up a surprise force in the country now?"

Zhao Kang nodded: "Yes, King Ning has been preparing for a long time, and his troops will definitely not be short. Although I have already given the last [-] troops to Zhou Long to protect the imperial capital."

"But if 3 people really want to face King Ning's rebel army, I'm afraid it will be useless. Therefore, I need an army with outstanding combat power to lurk in the Qian Kingdom and deliver a fatal blow to King Ning at the critical moment."

Wu Rulong: "What does the Imperial Master plan to do?"

Zhao Kang: "Tongzhou Prefectural Mu Zhang is one of ours. He can hide the trapped warriors so that they can be used at critical moments. However, the number of people infiltrated at each time should not be too large to avoid being noticed by King Ning's eyes."

"I understand, don't worry about this, we will take care of it for you, Imperial Master."

Zhao Kang thanked him: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

In three days everything will be ready.

Zhao Kang led the Jingguo envoys and returned hundreds of cars to Jingguo as a return gift, and returned to Qianguo as Jingguo's national advisor.

Jingguo's documents were rushed eight hundred miles to the imperial capital of Qianguo. All the ministers of Jingguo who received the news were a little suspicious.

But the one who felt most uneasy was Xiao Feiyu.

Looking at the contents of the secret letter, he couldn't help but start to think deeply. When did Jingguo gain a national master named Zhao Long.

"Mr. Qingtong, do they have any news?" He looked at his subordinates.
