After crossing, I surrounded the capital from the countryside

Xu Qingqing was speechless upon hearing this and resisted the urge to roll her eyes at him.

But he still said speechlessly: "It's been less than a day, and you can tell that I've lost weight just by closing your eyes and opening them again?"

Xiao Yuheng's hands kept rubbing Xu Qingqing's hands, making Xu Qingqing feel slightly itchy. She couldn't help but twitch, but was held tightly by Xiao Yuheng the next second.

"Qingqing..."

"Ok?"

As the two looked at each other, the air began to remain still, and then slowly became thicker as their eyes met.

Xu Qingqing's eyelashes trembled slightly, Xiao Yuheng pursed his lips lightly, and his Adam's apple moved slightly.

"Qingqing, can you kiss me..." Xiao Yuheng's voice was low, with a hint of coquettishness and temptation.

Xu Qingqing's eyelashes trembled faster and a hint of red appeared on her cheeks.

Xiao Yuheng waited for a while, and seeing that Xu Qingqing did not move, he quickly suppressed the aggression in his eyes. In the blink of an eye, his eyes became slightly moist and gradually became crystal clear.

He looked at Xu Qingqing with a pitiful look, aggrieved, "Is it because I've become ugly now that Qingqing is unhappy? It's my fault. I shouldn't have hurt myself..."

Xu Qingqing was still preparing herself mentally and was unable to react for a while.

After I came to my senses and heard what was said, I suddenly felt as if a large cup of West Lake Longjing tea appeared in front of me.

She did not interrupt Xiao Yuheng's self-pity. After he finished speaking, Xu Qingqing checked Xiao Yuheng's injuries as if nothing had happened.

Xiao Yuheng never expected that Xu Qingqing didn't accept the challenge this time, and her eyes were a little dazed.

After a while, Xiao Yuheng looked up at Xu Qingqing's eyes full of concern and love. A warm feeling surged in his heart. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he let Xu Qingqing check his wound.

After Xu Qingqing carefully examined Xiao Yuheng's injuries and confirmed that every part had been properly treated, her eyes stayed fixed on Xiao Yuheng's face again.

Xiao Yuheng couldn't help feeling a little shy when Xu Qingqing stared at him, and his cheeks turned slightly red.

In an instant, the status between the two seemed to be reversed.

Seeing Xiao Yuheng's shy appearance, Xu Qingqing felt an indescribable tenderness in her heart. She suddenly realized that this man who was always calm and at ease and protected her from the wind and rain seemed to still retain his appearance in the previous life, and also had his shy and lovely side.

When Xiao Yuheng's eyes began to avoid her, Xu Qingqing quickly moved forward and gently but firmly kissed Xiao Yuheng on his lips.

At that moment, time seemed to freeze, all sounds disappeared, and only two hearts were beating violently.

After the kiss, Xu Qingqing didn't give Xiao Yuheng any time to react. She quickly stood up, turned around and left the room with a sly smile on her face.

Xiao Yuheng was left lying on the bed alone, in a daze, with surprise and happiness flashing in his eyes.

He reached out and gently touched the lips that Xu Qingqing had kissed, as if he could still feel the warmth and sweetness, and the emotions surging in his heart were like surging tides.

Thinking of the figure who had just rushed out of the door, Xiao Yuheng touched his lips and chuckled.

……

Early in the morning, the baby secretly transformed into his original form and flew back to the sky. According to the route provided by Xu Qingqing, he began to look for He Anran and his group.

At the same time, Xu Qingqing also released a carrier pigeon, allowing the people in the Shadow Pavilion to begin secretly searching for evidence.

She was fully aware of the importance of the intelligence in her hands in uncovering the truth and shaking that person's position, so she mobilized all the forces of the Shadow Pavilion without hesitation, and began intensive collection and verification work based on the clues brought back by Yuan Ye.

Shadow Pavilion, an organization famous for gathering intelligence and carrying out covert missions, under the command of Xu Qingqing, is like an invisible net, quietly spreading across the entire Great Zhou Kingdom.

Even the Northern Barbarians were infiltrated by someone at some point, which made the Shadow Pavilion's operation smoother this time.

The news brought back by Yuan Ye was like a ray of light in the darkness, pointing the way for Xu Qingqing. Based on these clues, the elites of Shadow Pavilion quickly dispersed and went deep into the inner court of the imperial palace, the northern barbarian border, and even the major prefectures, looking for any clues that might prove that Concubine Shu had an affair with the northern barbarians and the mystery of the emperor's bloodline.

Afterwards, Xu Qingqing did not just sit there, but began to quickly organize the resources in her hands.

At the same time, the Xiaoyao Sect officially began to enter a state of alert.

Xiaoyao Sect is also united and ready to go out together

They also more or less sensed what their leader was trying to do, but no one said anything, not even those who had passed the assessment and merged in the past few years.

The life in Xiaoyao Sect is what everyone dreams of. Over the past few years, they all know what kind of person their sect leader is, and they unconditionally believe that the sect leader will definitely not take them to die for no reason.

Therefore, in the current situation, something must have happened in the outside world that they were not aware of, causing the sect leader to have to mobilize the entire sect to fight back.

At this time, everyone in the Xiaoyao Sect thought that their leader had encountered some serious trouble outside, which was why he had to take such action.

We still don’t know what amazing things they will accomplish in the future.

In the afternoon, Bao Bao brought He Anran, Wang Dahu and a group of fainted people quietly back to the outside of Xiaoyao Sect.

He Anran and Wang Dahu each held a small bottle and gently shook it in front of the nose of the unconscious person, and then the person slowly woke up.

When they woke up, everyone was confused. They didn't know why they woke up on a small path outside Xiaoyao Sect after fainting.

But under the pressure of Wang Dahu's gaze, no one asked.

This must be the master's miracle! I must keep it a secret and not let the master fall into danger.

As these people thought so, there was a serious and solemn look in their eyes.

There was also a sense of warning in the glances they gave each other.

This made He Anran, Wang Dahu and the baby on the side feel a little confused and impressed.

Just as He Anran and his group continued on their way, Xu Qingqing was standing on the high platform of Xiaoyao Sect, her eyes sharp as torches, scanning the patrol team below that was ready to go.

At this moment, the members of the patrol team who had undergone Lu Zhenting's militarized training were wearing protective armor, holding various suitable weapons designed by Xu Qingqing, and hanging around their waists were medicines that Xu Qingqing had specially exchanged from the system. At this moment, they were looking at Xu Qingqing on the stage, each of them with an upright posture, firm eyes, and a powerful aura.

"Reporting to the sect leader, there has been no unusual movement around our sect recently, but we have not let down our guard. We patrol along the established routes every day to ensure the safety of the sect." The captain of the patrol team stepped forward and reported the patrol situation during this period to Xu Qingqing in a loud voice.

Xu Qingqing nodded slightly, expressing her appreciation for the patrol team's diligence and responsibility. "Very good, your efforts are an important guarantee for the safety of the sect. But remember, the outside world is changing rapidly at this time, and someone may come knocking on your door at any time, so you must not slack off. Continue to strengthen patrols, be vigilant, and also pay attention to your own safety."

"Yes!" the patrol team responded loudly collectively.

After saying that, she waved her hand to signal the patrol team to go and take over the shift. After they left, her eyes were still looking deeply into the distance.
