Although he did not achieve the goal he originally envisioned, Qin Xiao was already satisfied that Sister Rong could make such a sacrifice.

He knew very well that Sister Rong really cared about him. For a woman to be able to do that, she was really sincere towards him.

Although Qin Xiao felt a little regretful for not being able to achieve good things, the fact that Sister Rong was able to do that for herself was shocking, both in terms of sight and feeling, which made Qin Xiao extremely excited. When he returned to the Commandery's Mansion, the thought was still in his mind

It reminds me of the beautiful scene when I was with Sister Rong.

He also knew that since Sister Rong had taken this step, she had actually handed herself over, and she had already determined who she belonged to.

"General...General!" The soldiers guarding the county captain's mansion did not recognize Qin Xiao who had changed his clothes at first. When they recognized his appearance, they were filled with surprises. Without waiting for Qin Xiao's instructions, they flew back to the mansion.

, and soon, I saw several people coming to greet me in a hurry, and the first person was Yuwen Chengchao.

When Yuwen Chengchao saw Qin Xiao, he was overjoyed. He was so angry that he forgot to come up to see him in his excitement. Instead, he strode forward and hugged Qin Xiao. Qin Xiao knew the temperament of the eldest son and said with a smile:

"Be gentle, don't strangle me."

Yu Wen Chengchao burst out laughing, let go of his hand, and turned around and said, "I have said that good people have their own destiny, and now they are back."

He was followed by several people, whom Qin Xiao recognized. Song Shilian, a doctor in the official department, Yunlu, the young minister of Dali Temple, and Huo Mianzhi, the prime minister of Liaoxi County, were all present. There was also an unexpected acquaintance, who turned out to be Xuanyuan Chong of Heishan.

"Xuanyuan Colonel!" Qin Xiao first nodded to Xuanyuan Chong. He knew that the imperial court sent Song Shilian to Heishan to recruit people, and granted Xuanyuan Chong the title of sixth-rank Zhaowu Colonel. Now that Song Shilian and Xuanyuan Chong were present, the recruitment matter must be

Very smoothly.

However, Xuanyuan Chong had already knelt down on one knee and said respectfully: "General Qin, I humble my position...!" Before he could finish speaking, Qin Xiao had already rushed forward, grabbed Xuanyuan Chong and helped him up.

He said: "Don't do this." He knew that Xuanyuan Chong must be very grateful to him.

The Black Mountain bandits, together with tens of thousands of their families, have been entrenched in the Black Mountains on the northern border for many years. They were labeled as traitors by the government and were suppressed by the government. The living environment was actually extremely harsh.

However, most people in Montenegro have a short-sighted mentality and are short-sighted. Only Xuanyuan Chong has been thinking about finding a way out for the people of Montenegro.

After the civil strife in Montenegro, its strength declined greatly and its situation became even more difficult and dangerous.

For Xuanyuan Chong, finding a way out is not easy.

However, Qin Xiao fell from the sky, giving hope to Xuanyuan Chong and the Black Mountain people who were in a desperate situation. Qin Xiao did not live up to Xuanyuan Chong's expectations and single-handedly facilitated the imperial court's recruitment of Black Mountain. How did Xuanyuan Chong feel about Qin Xiao in his heart?

Could you be grateful?

Qin Xiao stepped forward to help Xuanyuan Chong up. He didn't think it was anything, but others looked at it with surprise.

Just because Qin Xiao took a few steps forward, his speed was so fast that he was in front of Xuanyuan Chong almost in a blink of an eye. Moreover, Xuanyuan Chong was burly, at least in terms of body shape, much stronger than Qin Xiao, but Qin Xiao was just

Holding Xuanyuan Chong's arms with both hands, he lifted Xuanyuan Chong up with a gentle push.

Even if they didn't understand martial arts, several civil servants could tell that Xuanyuan Chong had not recovered from his unconsciousness after being lifted up. It was obvious that Qin Xiao relied solely on his arm strength to lift the strong Xuanyuan Chong up. Qin Xiao stepped forward

The movements of lifting Xuanyuan Chong were fast and steady, which was extraordinary.

However, although everyone was a little surprised by Qin Xiao's skills, everyone also knew that General Qin was an expert in martial arts, so they were not too surprised.

"It's good that everyone is here." Qin Xiao said with a smile, knowing that everyone must have a lot to ask him, and he also had many things to ask everyone, but he asked with concern: "Where are General Yu Wenlang and General Jiang Lang?"

?And Uncle Ji... Is Qin Ji okay? Is Fat Fish also okay?"

He was captured at Husu Racecourse, and everyone around him was poisoned. He has always been worried about everyone's safety.

"General, don't worry." Yuwen Chengchao raised his hand and said, "It's cold outside, so go inside and speak slowly."

Everyone surrounded Qin Xiao and returned to the house. After sitting down, Yuwen Chengchao said: "General, they are all safe and sound. After General Jiang Lang woke up, he immediately sent people back to the city to report to me, and he led people to search near the racecourse.

.I received the news and did not publicize it to the outside world. After all, in emergency situations, the news of the general's distress must be kept secret."

Qin Xiao nodded and said: "General Lang did the right thing."

"I was worried that the Liaodong Army was behind this. Instead of taking people to the racecourse in person, I sent Xiaolou to lead a team of troops to the racecourse for support." Yuwen Cheng said seriously: "There is no trace of the general around the racecourse. Jiang

General Lang blamed himself. He was worried that the Liaodong Army had sent someone to kidnap the general, so he disguised himself with his men and chased him east." He said solemnly: "The general is not here, and he has not discussed it with me, and he has not discussed it with me at the moment.

Know how he is doing."

Qin Xiao knew that Jiang Xiaochun was guarding him, but he watched helplessly as he was kidnapped. He blamed himself in his heart and could only console himself: "Jiang Lang will be steady and well-informed, so nothing will happen to him."

"Although the assassin was poisoned, it was not fatal. Only one soldier from the Animal Husbandry Supervision Office was killed, and the others were all safe." Yu Wencheng said, "Fat Fish brought Qin Ji back, but he had returned to the racecourse the day before yesterday." Look.

He said to Song Shilian, a doctor in the Ministry of Officials, "This is Master Song's arrangement."

Song Shilian then said: "Not long after Long Rui's army entered western Liaoning, western Liaoning is calm on the surface, but the power of the eastern Liaoning army is still entrenched here. If the soldiers and people know that the general has been kidnapped, it will not only damage morale, but also the situation in western Liaoning is very likely to

There will be turmoil. Colonel Xuanyuan brought people to escort me back to Guangning. He has already met General Gu, and General Gu is also arranging follow-up matters for recruitment. Colonel Xuanyuan insists on coming to see the lord and express his gratitude to him.

"

Qin Xiao smiled and said: "This is all the kindness of the imperial court, I just put in a little effort."

"After returning to the city, Yu Wenlang will discuss with a few of us. We all feel that although the incident happened suddenly and the Duke's condition is critical, we cannot mess up the situation." Song Shilian said seriously: "We want to rescue the Duke secretly.

But on the surface, everything must be in order, and no one can see that Sir Alex is in trouble." Fu Xu smiled and said: "Fortunately, Sir Sir, he left a lot of charges and evidence for Mr. Yun. We feel that we must first stabilize the situation.

Over at the ranch, Mr. Yun sent people to bring back all the people from the Husu Animal Husbandry Supervision Office who knew about this, and imprisoned them in the prison, so that they would not be afraid of them talking nonsense outside."

Qin Xiao thought that all this was thanks to Sister Rong. The pawnshop had already collected the criminal evidence of many officials, large and small, in Western Liaoning, but kept archiving it. After taking control of Guangning, Sister Rong knew that the next step was to purge the Liaodong Army's influence in Western Liaoning.

, provided a large number of criminal evidence against Liaodong officials, and Qin Xiao handed these criminal evidence to Yunlu, and it was naturally much easier for Yunlu to deal with it.

"I heard that the lordship was planning to let Qin Ji take over the Husu Racecourse, so I directly dismissed many officials from the Animal Husbandry and Supervision Office, and temporarily arranged for Qin Ji to take over the post of pastoral supervisor. In order to ensure Qin Ji's safety, I temporarily let Fatty

Yu took over the post of Mu Cheng and was responsible for the defense of the Husu Racecourse." Song Shilian said: "Yu Wenlang will transfer a team of troops from the Long Rui Army to guard the ranch. There shouldn't be any problems at the ranch."

Qin Xiao saw that several people had handled the matter in an orderly manner, and said with emotion: "General Yu Wenlang, my lords, you have stayed calm in the face of danger. I thank you all." He thought that there was Gu Baiyi on the other side of Heishan, so it was natural that Guangning would be foolproof.

Fortunately, Yuwen Chengchao is in charge here. If the eldest son hadn't stayed calm in times of crisis, Guangning would have been in a different situation.

However, I knew in my heart that the eldest son had outstanding abilities and was a man of his own. He had mixed up with the Jiangnan Queen Mother Association and became a star general in a short period of time. Faced with a severe situation, he would naturally have enough skills to deal with it. There is a person like the eldest son.

Assistance is also my own luck.

"Thanks to Huo Juncheng." Yuwen Chengchao said with a smile: "Everything in the city is in order and there is nothing abnormal. It's all because Huo Juncheng handled things properly."

Huo Mianzhi immediately smiled and said: "Don't dare."

Huo Mianzhi abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side and joined Qin Xiao. Qin Xiao naturally revealed this to the eldest son. In times of crisis, Huo Mianzhi did not betray his trust.

"Master Yun has speeded up the handling of the case." Yu Wencheng said: "Mr. Bai from Yingcaotang was wronged. This time, thanks to Mr. Bai's help, after he came out, he immediately summoned a group of talented people from Yingcaotang.

, and we are waiting for Lord Song’s appointment. Lord Yun and Lord Song have been working very hard these days. While handling cases, they are also appointing officials to the counties below. The more times like this, the more we need to send people to stabilize the situation in the counties in western Liaoning."

Song Shilian also said with emotion: "Sir, it's fortunate that you thought of rehabilitating Yingcaotang. Without the great help of Mr. Bai of Yingcaotang and those talented people, even if we wanted to send people to various counties, we would have no one to send."

Qin Xiao thought of what happened in Minghai County and asked, "I'm afraid the officials sent to the counties may not be able to take over smoothly."

"We have already considered this." Song Shilian whispered: "All county officials have more or less connections with the Liaodong Army. It is indeed not easy to take over directly. However, the officials sent to the counties to take over the official positions are all from Yingcaotang.

Almost all of them are famous people in the Northeast. Even if there are people in the counties who interfere with them and make things difficult for them, it will only prevent them from taking office and not dare to really harm them. It would be fine if they take over smoothly, but as long as someone dares to attack the officials appointed by the imperial court
