"Su Tang, are you going into the city today too?"

As soon as the woman gave up her seat, Liu Cuicui squeezed in next to Qi Lingheng.

Liu Cuicui was the girl who chatted with Qi Lingheng on the ridge of the field some time ago.

The eldest daughter of Liu the hunter in the village.

Su Tang didn't expect to have another encounter with this woman so soon.

She was more sturdy than the average woman, and was comparable to Qi Lingheng who had gained some weight now, but she was still shorter than Qi Lingheng.

Seeing that Su Tang ignored her, Liu Cuicui leaned half of her body to the side and continued chatting with Su Tang across from Qi Lingheng.

"I'm going to the city today to sell some leather and game. What are you going to do in the city?" After saying this, she looked at Qi Lingheng several times.

Qi Lingheng was holding a medium-sized bamboo basket in front of him. It was covered with cotton cloth, so the objects inside could not be seen.

"Who are you?" Su Tang glanced at Qi Lingheng, whose face had turned dark, with a smile, and her mood inexplicably improved a lot.

She found that she now had more evil tastes than in her previous life. Whenever she saw Qi Lingheng's dark face, she would feel inexplicably happier.

"Su Tang!" Liu Cuicui's slightly aggrieved voice came through Qi Lingheng.

Qi Lingheng jumped out of the car with a dark face and said to Su Tang: "You go there."

Su Tang, well, now this black-faced Bao Gong cannot be provoked.

She obediently exchanged places with Qi Lingheng.

Liu Cuicui's face also turned dark at this moment.

Su Tang's mood inexplicably improved a lot.

"By the way, you haven't told me who you are yet." Su Tang tilted her head and continued to provoke Liu Cuicui beside her.

"I'm Liu Cuicui. We used to be very good friends. How could you forget?" Liu Cuicui had a resentful look on her face, as if Su Tang had betrayed her.

"Well, you know I fell into the water last time, and I can't remember a lot of things." Su Tang evaded the question.

"I heard that this is your husband?" Liu Cuicui turned her gaze to Qi Lingheng again, without any reservation. There were quite a few old women on the ox cart, but she just looked at other people's men so carelessly.

"Yes, my husband."

After hearing Su Tang's introduction to himself, Qi Lingheng's mood inexplicably improved. He tugged at Su Tang's sleeve, signaling her not to chat with other people anymore.

"Husband..." Su Tang understood immediately and whispered in Qi Lingheng's ear, "After entering the city, let's go shopping separately. When the oxcart comes back in the afternoon, we will meet at the place where we got on the car."

Qi Lingheng raised his eyes slightly. Is Su Tang really not afraid that she will run away?

After entering the city, Su Tangguo wanted to separate from Qi Lingheng.

She also specifically told Qi Lingheng, "Don't follow me, finish what you need to do quickly, and we'll see each other when we go back in the afternoon."

After saying that, Su Tang took the lead and walked forward without even looking back, just raised her hand and waved casually.

Qi Lingheng......

"Mr. Qi, is this your first time in the city? Where are you going? I'll take you there." Seeing Su Tang leaving Qi Lingheng alone, Liu Cuicui, who had been following the two of them, seemed to have found an opportunity. She stepped forward and stood behind Qi Lingheng and said.

Qi Lingheng didn't even turn his head, snorted coldly, and walked a different path from Su Tang.

Seeing this, Liu Cuicui hurriedly followed.

Behind them, several women from the same village saw this and pointed at the people who left and started talking, "Oh, this is really strange. The girl from the Su family left her husband and went away, and the girl from the Liu family chased after someone else's man. It seems that our village is going to be lively this year..."

"Hey, if I weren't old, I would also chase after that young man. Don't you see how handsome he is? I don't think you can find such a handsome man in our area..." Another auntie joked with a smile.

"Yes, that face is the most handsome in our village, but the body looks a little thin, and I don't know if it's good in that aspect..."

"..."

A few rural women, without their own men around, dared to say anything, and for a while, their saliva flew everywhere.

At this time, the woman who was glared at by Qi Lingheng first patted one of them and said, "Hey, you people from the Li family, stop talking nonsense. You didn't see how scary that young man's eyes were. I just wanted to play a joke on him, but the look he gave me made me think I was going to see my dead mother."

"Oh, this is what happened when you made eye contact with that young man." Several women laughed at her without caring.

Soon, the group of people entered the city chatting and laughing, and then each went their separate ways to take care of their own affairs.

As for Qi Lingheng, he quickly got rid of the people following him.

After turning a few corners, we arrived at a remote alley.

There is only one small door in the entire alley. No one goes in or out of this quiet alley. Qi Lingheng glanced at the flower pots placed on the wall and reached out to pat the old wooden door.

"Who?" A deep male voice came from inside.

"I." Qi Lingheng said only one word, and the shabby wooden door was quickly opened.

When the people inside saw Qi Lingheng for the first time, their eyes were already filled with tears with excitement.

The moment the wooden door opened, Qi Lingheng flashed into the room.

The man reacted quickly and closed the wooden door the moment Qi Lingheng entered.

The alley was completely silent and desolate, as if no one had been there just now.

Qi Lingheng entered the courtyard and took a look at the person inside. The person immediately understood, nodded slightly, and took Qi Lingheng quickly to a small house.

When I opened the door, there was a musty smell inside.

The whole room was covered with dust and cobwebs, with no signs of anyone living there.

"master."

The moment the door closed, the man who had just opened the door knelt down in front of Qi Lingheng.

"Well, tell me about the current situation." Qi Lingheng's voice was calm, and his calm gaze was cast on the top of the person's head below.

The sharp gaze gives people a feeling of being on edge.

"Master, since you disappeared, all the people sent to Dingzhou by Prince Sheng and the Third Prince have withdrawn, and we have not yet found out who the new governor of Dingzhou is."

After saying this, the man crouched even lower, as if blaming himself for not doing his job well.

"Well. Don't worry about the Dingzhou prefect for now. After he takes office for a while, some things will be revealed."

The sunlight shines into the house through the lattice windows, and under the light, the dust in the house seems to float in the air.

“The eldest prince and the third prince seemed to have reached some consensus, and the two sides were surprisingly harmonious in the court.

Two of our information collection points were picked up by them, and we lost some people.

But rest assured, Master, all the hidden lines you laid out earlier are safe."

"Well, send back all the people who are looking for me outside."

It was really an accident that Qi Lingheng ended up in the pawnbroker business this time. His men would definitely be frantically looking for him outside.

"Then Master, won't you go back with us?"
