Chapter 185 He Still Has to Thank Me
On the carriage.
Sun Tiezhu and Cao Caidie were confused and didn't know why Xia Bitu ran away in such a hurry.
Sun Tiezhu asked in confusion, "Brother, what happened to him?"
Qin Zheng laughed and said, "Those who stop him will kill him!"
“…” Neither Sun Tiezhu nor Cao Caidie understood.
"Sir, my father has really been... rescued?" Cao Caidie asked with a trembling voice.
Qin Zheng smiled and nodded: "Since I promised you, how can I not do it?"
Cao Caidie was incredulous: "But, didn't the Lord say that only Xia Bitu could rescue my father?"
Qin Zheng smiled faintly: "He is an old fox, how can I trust him completely? There are some things that I can only do myself to feel at ease."
"My father, where is he now?" Cao Caidie asked excitedly.
Qin Zheng said, "After you faked your death, you were reunited."
"Wow, wow, wow..." Cao Caidie burst into tears.
Sun Tiezhu was petrified and completely confused. He didn't know how his elder brother had rescued Cao Qingzhi.
on the street.
Xia Bitu stopped running and glanced at the disappearing carriage.
Suddenly he yelled into the air: "Go, the operation is canceled!"
It attracted the attention of passers-by.
Xia Bitu didn't care either.
His men were in the dark and could hear his orders, so who could discover it?
At worst, just treat him as a lunatic.
Xia Bitu raised his sleeve and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The heart is still beating violently.
At first he thought the monkey had killed four birds with one stone, but now he knows that it was not the case.
This is clearly killing five birds with one stone.
This last arrow actually allowed him to destroy his own trump card with his own hands and kill Yu Meiren's group of spies!
This monkey boy’s evil plan is so vicious!
It's even more vicious than his plan to give up Cao Qingzhi!
Fortunately, I followed Qin Zheng here.
Fortunately, at the last moment, the monkey boy gave him a chance.
Otherwise, he would destroy with his own hands the spies he had painstakingly cultivated, those who had already penetrated Beichen's heart, including the already high-ranking Yu Meiren!
Just thinking about it, Xia Bitu was terrified, with lingering fears, chills, chills, and a sense of dread!
This is much more terrifying than the spies he exposed to Qin Zheng.
He didn't understand why Qin Zheng let him go in the end.
Could it be that we are really in love?
How can it be?
"Anyway, it's okay, it's okay!" Xia Bitu walked back, covering his heart.
But I found that my legs were weak!
Xia Bitu gritted his teeth and muttered, "I'm not willing to give up! Should I inform the Beichen assassins about Qin Zheng's plan to sneak into Chencang today?"
After thinking for a long time, Xia Bitu didn't dare.
Because, since Qin Zheng dared to tell him the truth, he would not have thought that he would leak the secret.
What if this is another trap set by Qin Zheng for him?
He is scared now, like a frightened bird, seeing snakes in every corner, and enemies everywhere.
However, he still couldn't figure out how Qin Zheng rescued Cao Qingzhi?
Xia Bitu always felt that something was wrong, but he didn't know what it was!
royal palace.
Xia Mochu stood up in shock: "Qin Zheng took Cao Caidie out of the city?"
An Dehai nodded: "Yuan Shiqing sent a letter by carrier pigeon."
Xia Mochu was excited: "Are you going to get evidence?"
An Dehai said, "Since Cao Caidie went there personally, she must not have told Qin Zheng where the evidence was hidden. Your Majesty, I must go there in person. Qin Zheng must not get the evidence, and Cao Caidie must not be allowed to stay any longer!"
Xia Mochu sighed, feeling somewhat reluctant, but still nodded and said, "Uncle An, do it cleanly and don't hurt Qin Zheng!"
"Yes!" An Dehai turned and left.
In the carriage, Cao Caidie wiped away her tears and asked, "How did you rescue my father?"
Qin Zheng said: "Actually, the one who really saved people was Xia Bitu!"
"Ah?" Cao Caidie was confused.
Sun Tiezhu was also confused. Wasn’t it his master who saved him?
Qin Zheng smiled and said, "Actually, Xia Bitu really wanted to rescue your father and win him over to his own advantage. However, he knew better than to mention that if he wanted your father, Beichen would see your father's importance. How could he possibly let him go?"
Even if Emperor Beichen was incompetent, how could there not be intelligent people in the court? Even if Beichen released the people, some people would not let him leave alive.
Xia Bitu was reluctant to reveal his true hand to Beichen, but he was also afraid I would take action and pull your father over to my side. So, he could only pretend to help me. In reality, he would also act in my favor, but only to confuse me.
Because he knows that only if he helps me to get the person back, Beichen will kill your father. Getting the person back is like a death warrant for your father!"
Cao Xiaodie's pretty face turned pale: "Sir, you know his purpose, why do you still need his help?"
Qin Zheng laughed and said, "If he doesn't do this, how can he expose the spies he has planted in Beichen? This is such a good opportunity. There will never be another one!"
Cao Caidie looked at Qin Zheng in horror: "Sir, aren't you afraid that you will really kill my father?"
"My elder brother will take action only when he is sure of victory." Sun Tiezhu looked as if he knew everything.
But he turned around and asked, "Brother, how did you rescue Lord Cao?"
Qin Zheng's eyes were deep as he said, "Actually, I had already rescued your father before Xia Bitu came to the rescue. I just wanted to get rid of his spy in Beichen."
Sun Tiezhu wondered, "Brother, if you rescued the people, wouldn't Xia Bitu's spy report the truth? How could he suspect his own spy of betrayal?"
Cao Caidie also had a puzzled expression on her face.
Qin Zheng said: "I killed the person who sent the message."
Sun Tiezhu was shocked: "So, the information he received was false information you passed on to him?"
Qin Zheng nodded.
Cao Caidie was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat: "Sir, why did you tell him the truth?"
Qin Zheng said: "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed!"
Cao Caidie and Sun Tiezhu were speechless.
Little did they know that this morning, Qin Zheng received a letter via carrier pigeon, saying that Yu Meiren was willing to be a double agent...
Although Qin Zheng didn't tell the reason, Cao Caidie was still very shocked.
How terrifying is the power of Lord Qin? He can actually interfere with Beichen?
If it weren't for Qin Zheng's strategic planning, her father would have died!
If Qin Zheng hadn't pointed it out, she would never have thought that her father was rescued in this way.
What a powerful brain it takes to connect everything together!
Cao Caidie suddenly asked, "Sir, aren't you afraid that Xia Bitu will turn against you if you do this? He's the Prime Minister, second only to the emperor. His methods must be extraordinary!" Qin Zheng said firmly, "No, he'll even have me to thank him!"
"Thank you?" Cao Caidie was confused.
"Is he stupid?" Sun Tiezhu was also confused.
Qin Zheng: "Your father was a general who defended the country of Daqian. If he really died because of him, Xia Bitu would be cursed for eternity. I saved his reputation, so shouldn't he thank me? I stopped him from destroying the spy he had cultivated, so shouldn't he thank me too? He promised me to save someone, but he didn't. I saved him myself, and I didn't turn against him. Shouldn't he thank me too?"
Sun Tiezhu and Cao Caidie: "..."
Why does it feel like this gratitude was forced out by adults?
Cao Caidie admired him and said, "Your Excellency has a good plan. First, you used my father's usefulness to Xia Bitu to build a plank road, lure the army into a trap, and lure Xia Bitu into helping you.
Then, the mantis stalks the cicada while the oriole waits behind, and then the tiger snatches the food from its mouth, sneaking through Chencang. Rescue my father.
"In the end, it was a case of grafting, framing, concealing the truth, and killing with a borrowed knife! Xia Bitu almost destroyed his spy in Beichen. Moreover, through this incident, the master saw some of Xia Bitu's hidden cards and took advantage of the opportunity to coerce and bribe him, and obtained his carefully cultivated Beichen spy."
Cao Caidie suddenly exclaimed, "Sir, how many tricks have you used?"
At this moment, Sun Tiezhu also understood and looked at Qin Zheng in horror.
No wonder I said that Qin Zheng is quite scary!
This method is too terrifying!
Just listening to it is creepy!
Qin Zheng smiled faintly: "Little Caier!"
The carriage left the north gate.
Qin Zheng ordered Tao Yong: "Go to Black Wind Ridge."
Cao Caidie's expression changed slightly.
Qin Zheng noticed it and a smile flashed in his eyes.
There are many mountains and dense forests in Black Wind Ridge, with birds and beasts, but crows are the most numerous among them.
Sometimes, you can see black crows circling over Black Wind Ridge, blocking out the sun.
It's like a black whirlwind.
Hence the name.
Qin Zheng calculated the route from Beichen to the imperial capital, and Xiang Rong would have to pass through Black Wind Ridge to return to the imperial capital.
Black Wind Ridge is the best place for Xiang Rong to hide evidence.
Because the distance from the imperial capital is just right, it is easy and quick to retrieve, and not difficult to find.
After all, hiding something in the huge Black Wind Ridge is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
It has been verified at this moment, but it doesn't matter anymore.
Because Qin Zheng's special forces had already found these evidences.
Otherwise, how could Qin Zheng be so convinced that Cao Qingzhi was really wronged!
Why would he spare no effort to help Cao Caidie?
At this moment, Cao Caidie was in a conflict. She thought it was just a coincidence, that Qin Zheng had done it unintentionally. After all, Black Wind Ridge was indeed a good place for murder and robbery.
However, this unintentional act may very likely lead others to Black Wind Ridge and take away the evidence.
However, this evidence is too important, and it was obtained at the cost of Xiang Rong's life.
She didn't dare to tell Qin Zheng!
Although she had already basically trusted Qin Zheng, she hadn't met her father yet. She couldn't be sure if Qin Zheng was truly helping her. Qin Zheng was the empress's favorite, and he was also flirting with Xia Bitu. No one would completely trust Qin Zheng.
"Lord Qin, I'm about to fake my death, and I must leave the imperial capital. Why don't we go and get the evidence back directly?" Cao Caidie suddenly said.
Qin Zheng was stunned: "You, trust me?"
Cao Caidie smiled slightly: "You have rescued my father, how could I still not trust you?"
Qin Zheng nodded: "Okay, where is the evidence?"
Cao Caidie: "Wangdi Mountain."
Qin Zheng: “…”
Black Wind Ridge is in the north, and Wangdi Mountain is in the east, but they are both about the same distance from the imperial capital. Wangdi Mountain is also high and densely forested, and it is indeed a good place to hide and kill people and rob.
That is, Xiang Rong is not on the way.
However, this does not mean that Xiang Rong will not hide the evidence here.
If Qin Zheng didn't find any evidence in Black Wind Ridge, he would also search Wangdi Mountain.
Qin Zheng didn't expect that Cao Caidie would react so quickly and actually use someone else's trick.
He ordered Tao Yong: "Go to Wangdi Mountain!"
"Yes, sir!" Tao Yong turned his horse and headed east.
Seeing that Qin Zheng had no doubts, Cao Caidie breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s ten miles away and we’ll be there soon.
At the foot of Wangdi Mountain there is a village called Wangjiao, which is where the branch of Fuzhen Sect is located.
The villagers of Wangjiao Village were frightened by the sudden arrival of so many people. They thought they were exposed and that they were being wiped out.
Seeing that it was still early, Qin Zheng ordered the carriages and war horses to be left in Wangjiao Village, and then led his men up the mountain.
The villagers of Wangjiao Village were relieved when they saw that the enemy was not targeting them.
Cao Caidie was wearing light armor, which was heavy even for her, and she walked very slowly.
We walked and stopped, and when we reached halfway up the mountain, it was getting dark.
The woods grew darker.
Suddenly, hurried footsteps were heard from behind.
A group of men in black came running over quickly.
Sun Tiezhu was a little nervous: "Brother, they are coming!"
