Chapter 40 Something must have happened

Sure enough, Zhuling stood there, silently looking away, the disgust on her face seemed to be unable to be hidden, her expression was as uncomfortable as eating a fly.

She didn't like Qin Shuangjiang in the first place. She felt that according to Qin Shuangjiang's birth and identity, he was a slave who was raised to crawl into bed. With such an unworthy status, even if Yan Xu'an liked her, she could only be a slave at best. concubine.

How could a person with Qin Shuangjiang's status, at best, be a secret agent of the General's Mansion, or at worst, a secret prostitute and a skinny horse raised for special purposes, worthy of her master?
As one of Yan Xu'an's confidants, Zhuling and Jiang Hai have been with Yan Xu'an since he first entered the court, helping Yan Xu'an with many large and small things.

In her eyes, Yan Xu'an is a strategic genius, brave, resourceful and ambitious, and a master worthy of support. Everything he does, every strategy he makes, is carefully thought out, and he never makes any mistakes.

Only what happened with Qin Shuangjiang was different. She never understood why Yan Xu'an would take such a risk and keep her by his side. In her opinion, Yan Xu'an was not superficial, nor was he only interested in having sex with men and women. There is no way a person would be so partial to her just because of her appearance.

But in front of her, apart from her skin and her ability to seduce men, Zhuling really couldn't see anything else about her that was worthy of his master's nostalgia.

In the long silence, Qin Shuangjiang was not in a hurry, he just looked at Zhuling with a smile, but Zhuling took the lead to look away.

Although he just said: "Madam, just rest, my subordinates will be guarding outside. If you need anything, you can call me at any time." But in the eyes of disgust and disdain, there was clearly indifference, warning and alienation, and it was almost He said the words that mocked her with his own words: "I am not a man, your tricks are of no use to me."

Under Qin Shuangjiang's sweet smile, Zhuling turned around and left without hesitation. The door was closed, and the room suddenly became quiet again, leaving only the continuous sound of rain outside beating the eaves and the ground.

After blowing out the candles in the room, the surroundings fell into darkness. Qin Shuangjian lay down on the bed, turned to his side and closed his eyes. In the middle of the night, the door was gently pushed open, and Zhuling walked into the house lightly, but she just stood in the house and watched. He glanced at Qin Shuangjiang, who was breathing calmly in his clothes, and made sure she was still in bed before turning around and going out.

Hearing the sound of the door closing at the entrance, Qin Shuangjiang slowly opened her eyes on the bed. She stood up and put on her night clothes. At this time, the rain outside had almost stopped.

She climbed out of the window to avoid the guards and the dark men. The first place she went to was Yan Yunxiang's yard. When she arrived, the rain had completely stopped.

Standing in a dark place where no one else could see him, what he saw was a room that was surrounded by guards. The door was open, and the guards were coming in and out with anxious expressions. It seemed that the person had not been found yet.

Qin Shuangjiang quietly disappeared and turned around to leave the Prime Minister's Mansion. On the deserted street, it had just rained and the dark clouds dispersed. The moonlight showed a little light, and the accumulated water on the ground reflected the light.

She walked to the abandoned street where she met Qin Tianyou earlier. It was terrifying that there was no one around, and the sound of dripping water coming from nowhere was particularly harsh.

She was walking on the street. Suddenly, there was a sharp sound of breaking wind behind her. Qin Shuangjiang's eyes darkened slightly. He turned his wrist and slipped out three thin needles from his fingertips. He turned around and threw the needles in his hand.

She heard only two "clang" sounds, and the flying needle was blocked by the opponent. She did not hesitate, turned her wrist slightly, and threw the flying needle in her hand again. The needle passed firmly through the pillar on the side, and she suddenly tightened the thread in her hand. , the moment the blade fell, the special thread tightly strangled the sharp blade.

The situation was at a stalemate. There were several lines between them, and at the moment when their eyes met, the other party's fierce eyes froze first, and then a strong and powerful male voice sounded: "Frostfall?"

Qin Shuangjiang was slightly startled, first sensing the shock and restrained surprise in the other party's tone.

The two of them relieved their strength at the same time and stepped back. He pulled down the veil, revealing the young man's handsome features. Qin Shuangjiang searched for this person in his mind, and then found the corresponding name, and said with some uncertainty: "Bai Shuangjian" between?"

Just like her, he was an orphan adopted by Qin Tianyou on the bright side, but a dark man behind the scenes, doing everything for him that was not visible to the public.

In Qin Shuangjiang's impression, they were not familiar with each other. They had only carried out several assassination missions together. Except for the time when they were on missions, the two of them had almost never met.

Like other orphans, he lived in the Zhuangzi that Qin Tianyou used to place adopted orphans, and was taught martial arts by Qin Tianyou's confidants. Qin Shuangjiang had lived in the General's Mansion since he was a child and was taught by Qin Tianyou himself.Bai Jian looked at her with a hint of excitement in his eyes, but on the other hand, Qin Shuangjiang's eyes were full of wariness. The atmosphere was a little stiff. Suddenly, there were several old coughs in the dark alley nearby, and Bai Jian's face changed slightly. , hurriedly turned around and looked over.

I saw a dark shadow slowly walking out of the alley. As expected, it was Qin Tianyou. Bai Jian cupped his hands and saluted: "Father."

Qin Shuangjiang just stood there, looking at the person in front of him, and made no other movements. Qin Tianyou seemed to be used to it. He looked at Qin Shuangjiang and only asked: "Is the matter done?"

Qin Shuangjiang sneered: "What's the matter?"

Qin Tianyou's eyes deepened, and after a brief silence, he moved his feet, and in the blink of an eye he was in front of Qin Shuangjiang, and grabbed her neck violently.

Qin Shuangjiang only staggered a few steps and did not resist. Bai Jian stood aside with a slightly anxious expression: "Father..."

Before he could say anything about his plea, Qin Tianyou finally stopped him with a look. Qin Tianyou turned his head and looked at Qin Shuangjiang, who was strangled by his neck.

He said: "You have been the most well-behaved since we were little. You won't let me down this time, right?"

Qin Shuangjiang looked at him with an indifferent expression. She asked him: "Whose person is Yan Yunxiang?"

He had sent a letter to her to be careful about Yan Yunxiang, which meant that he should know her identity. But tonight she suddenly disappeared and made such a big fuss in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Something must have happened.

So she guessed that it was impossible for Qin Tianyou not to come forward. As long as he came forward, his hiding place must be this deserted street where almost no one came.

In the end, Qin Tianyou released his grip on her neck. He frowned and said, "It's none of your business. I'll take care of it. You just need to pay attention to Yan Xu'an at all times and complete the tasks I gave you." Just the mission.”

Hearing this, Qin Shuangjiang also knew that the other party was unlikely to tell him any useful information, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Qin Tianyou paused slightly before continuing: "You shouldn't come here at this time. If your position is exposed, you and I will be in danger."

Qin Shuangdang lowered her eyes and did not make any excuses. She came here just to confirm whether tonight's action had anything to do with Qin Tianyou.

Now he doesn't completely trust Qin Shuangjiang, so as long as her actions are not needed, he will not reveal anything to her.

Qin Shuangjiang turned around and left, but suddenly thought of something. Before taking two steps, she stopped again. She turned back and looked at Qin Tianyou. After a moment of hesitation, she asked: "Besides me, are you still the Prime Minister?" Has the government installed other spies?"

She was almost certain about this matter from the moment Bai Kou found the letter and handed it to her, but perhaps the other party hid it so well that she still doesn't know who it is.

This means that her situation has been completely known to Qin Tianyou unknowingly, and this person must be eliminated.

Although Qin Shuangjiang was calm on the surface, Qin Tianyou still seemed to be vaguely aware of her thoughts. He looked at her with complicated eyes for a while, and then said calmly: "You don't need to know."
