Chapter 56

Looking at Qin Zhi like this, Cheng Qi always felt a strange feeling in his heart, as if he had returned to the same time when he just met her a few days ago, cold and alienated.

"Do you want to go to the capital?"

Suddenly, Qin Zhi asked him.

Cheng Qi was stunned, and saw Qin Zhi was looking at him intently, his eyes were like water, but they were bottomless.

Cheng Qi stuttered for the first time and didn't answer for a long while.

Qin Zhi slowly moved her eyes away and looked into the distance.

Cheng Qi cleared his throat and said:

"I can do it, you can decide, I'm following you anyway."

Qin Zhi didn't speak any more, got up and moved around, then lifted her legs and left.

Cheng Qi wanted to call her, but stopped again, and sighed slightly, not knowing what it was like.

The frequent disappearance of the Meng family's father and daughter has become commonplace for everyone, and they have become accustomed to Qin Zhi's elusive appearance, and even feel a little bit looking forward to it, because every time Qin Zhi leaves and reappears, she will always bring out a lot of delicious food.

The children were very sensible and obedient, and after eating their stomachs, they played by the carriage for a while and did not go far.

Lu Tianhe still looked heartless, but he and Uncle Meng hit it off very well, and they got together whenever they had nothing to do, but Meng Chengyi would chat with Cheng Qi from time to time.

Now, Meng Chengyi came to look for Cheng Qi again.

Cheng Qi had something on his mind, and he was listless, while Meng Chengyi was a little hurt.

"Brother Cheng, are you worried about her?"

"Ok?"

Cheng Qi was taken aback, "Who?"

"Miss Qin."

"Her? Does she still have anyone to worry about? Worrying about her is better than worrying about ourselves!"

Cheng Qi came back to his senses and said nonchalantly.

Meng Chengyi didn't know what kind of joke was poked at by Cheng Qi's words, "Puchi" laughed, "That's true, but Miss Qin's kung fu is really strong!"

"You are not weak, are you taught by your family?"

Cheng Qi asked casually.

"Well, my second uncle is amazing. I have learned martial arts from him since I was a child!"

Meng Chengyi said it with joy, and it could be seen that she admired her second uncle very much.

"Then your father should be strong too."

Meng Chengyi shook his head and lowered his voice, "He, no, he can't even beat me..."

Cheng Qi smiled, "What about your second uncle? He joined the army?"

"Of course……"

Meng Chengyi's expression turned pale.

"Yi'er!"

At this moment, Uncle Meng raised his voice and shouted.

"Hey?"

"Is my plaster in your place?"

"What, you keep asking me about your own things!"

Meng Chengyi stood up reluctantly, and went to unload the baggage on the carriage.

Cheng Qi smiled, stood up, and walked towards the fire.

At this time, it was almost completely dark, and the children obediently climbed into the carriage, ready to go to bed.

"Why hasn't Miss Qin come back?"

Lu Tianhe was a little worried and looked around.

In Qin Zhi's absence, Cheng Qi's chattering skills seemed to be turned off as well, his voice was muffled, and he looked a bit sleepy.

"Master Cheng, why don't you go to sleep first, Uncle Meng and I take turns keeping watch."

Lu Tianhe proposed.

"It's okay, I'll go for a walk."

Cheng Qi got up and walked out.

Lu Tianhe thought he was worried about Qin Zhi, and said, "Then you take a lantern to illuminate it."

The lantern was also taken from Mrs. Zhou. It was a bamboo frame covered with a layer of kraft paper. It was not worth a lot of money, but I took several candles, so this is more rare.

"No, I have a Huozhezi."

Cheng Qi's figure disappeared soon, and Lu Tianhe didn't care.

Uncle Meng, on the other hand, looked at the direction Cheng Qi was leaving with a twinkle in his eyes.

However, after a while, Qin Zhi came back first.

She scanned around, didn't see Cheng Qi, and didn't ask, but nodded when she heard Lu Tianhe said that he would keep watch first.

The place where they rested was a place leeward of the wind, and there was a big tree next to it. Qin Zhi climbed up the tree a few times, leaned against a branch, closed her eyes and recovered herself.

Lu Tianhe, who was about to invite her to sleep in the carriage, was stunned, with his mouth half open, not knowing what to say.

"Miss Qin is really good at martial arts!"

Uncle Meng opened his mouth and praised.

Lu Tianhe came back to his senses, looked proud, and whispered:
"My master is amazing!"

"Your master?"

Uncle Meng was surprised.

"Hey, my master will definitely accept me as an apprentice!"

Lu Tianhe is full of confidence.

In the dead of night, Cheng Qi never came back. Around one or two o'clock in the morning, Uncle Meng fell asleep, and when he got up to change the way to Tianhe, he found that Qin Zhi on the tree had disappeared.

"My master must have gone out to find something."

Lu Tianhe didn't care, he yawned, leaned against the tree root, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Uncle Meng put two sticks of firewood into the fire, with his arms folded, a little absent-minded.

After another hour or so, Cheng Qi came back.

"Hasn't Lao Qin come back yet?"

Uncle Meng shook his head.

Cheng Qi yawned and said, "I'll go to sleep first, and I'll replace you later."

He also found a corner, wrapped himself in a cloak, and fell asleep.

The surrounding area is quiet, only the branches in the fire, occasionally making a slight "peeling" sound due to burning, which makes the night deeper and deeper.

And in the distance, Qin Zhi was crouching in the shadow of a boulder. The night was dark, and her figure seemed to melt into the boulder.

The direction she was facing was a camp with little lights, which was the camp of Princess Changping.

Although Qin Zhi observed the camp carefully, all her senses seemed to be fully open, and she was closely monitoring the movement around her.

Last night, she could feel that someone was spying on Princess Changping and his party. Years of combat experience gave her an indescribable intuition, a warning of danger.

After inquiring about the situation with Cheng Qi, she felt even more strongly that someone would definitely attack Princess Changping and his party.

She didn't want to be involved in this dispute inexplicably.

Especially after knowing the background of Princess Changping, Qin Zhi felt that she should leave as soon as possible.

The current emperor is old and sick. Although the crown prince was established early, there are still several princes, all of whom have a good reputation, and the crown prince has been recruited several times, which is quite unpopular. In this case, if the emperor has a What are the pros and cons, if they are not properly arranged, it will inevitably cause the princes from all walks of life to stage a drama of seizing the heir.

Qin Zhi didn't know much about these battles, but she had a way of dealing with things that tended to avoid disasters.

She always felt that it would not be ordinary bandits and bandits who were going to attack Princess Changping and others.

At this time, if you continue to stay in the camp of Princess Changping, you will be somewhat passive.

Suddenly, Qin Zhi suddenly felt his hairs stand on end, his back was cold, there was someone!

Not only there were people, but there was also an evil spirit. Sure enough, the person who came was not good.

Qin Zhi's breathing became even slower, and her whole body seemed to be integrated with the rock. She didn't know the effect of the legendary turtle's breathing exercise, but at this moment, she was as silent as if she had practiced the turtle's breathing exercise.

There were subtle footsteps, as well as the insignificant sound of breaking through the air and the sound of clothes.
