Chapter 44 What is she doing? (Seeking recommendations and evaluations)

  This thought came together, and it was unstoppable. Even the shadow of Sleeping Beauty in her spring sleep appeared before Tang Dynasty's eyes.

  "Heh heh" with a dry laugh, Tang Dynasty adjusted the camera to Irina's living quarters in the Western Castle District.

  In the pitch-black darkness, the majestic Tang family mansion stood like a giant monster, quietly crouching on the mountain waist of the base, with flickering lights flashing occasionally, as if its many eyes were blinking, vigilantly observing all movements around.

  The terrain of Xibao District is the highest in the entire Tangjia Fort, and it was designated by Mu Fu's steward, Mu Jincai, as a residential area for important leaders of the Iron Cavalry Alliance.

  However, now there is only Irina living here, which also makes it convenient for her to choose the room she likes.

  Irina chose the two highest rooms in Xibao District, overlooking the rooftop of Dongbao District.

  It was late, and Irina went to bed earlier than usual, completely unaware of what had happened in the Tang family mansion.

  Suddenly, Irina heard some noise on the windowsill.

  Irina woke up suddenly and listened intently.

  At this time, it just so happened that the Tang Dynasty was aiming its surveillance camera at Irina on the bed.

  Seeing her suddenly wake up, in the core control room on the third floor of the base, Tang Dynasty's guilty conscience subconsciously tensed up.

  "My goodness! Is she really that amazing!? How can she realize this?!" Tang Dynasty couldn't help but shout out loud.

  Just as the Tang Dynasty was hesitating about whether to shut down the monitoring system, a faint sound came from the loudspeaker.

  "Cuckoo, cuckoo..."

  The camera adjusted its focus towards the sound source, and it turned out to be a pigeon in front of the dove house on the windowsill, flapping its wings while muttering softly.

  At this time, Irina quickly floated from the bed to the windowsill, listened carefully for any other movement outside, and then reached out to grab the black pigeon with white feathers on its wings and white hair on its feet that was walking back and forth on the windowsill.

  In his free time, Tang heard that Irina was training pigeons, but he had never seen what kind of pigeons she raised.

  This rare breed of carrier pigeon known as the Black Luminous Wing Cloud Disc was one of many carrier pigeons raised by Irina.

  In Canglong Ridge, almost everyone knows the beautiful Irina. Apart from loving to flirt with men and laugh, her greatest hobby is feeding pigeons. It's also because Irina has a very skilled pigeon-training technique that allows Canglong Ridge to regularly contact various secret shops set up in major towns throughout South Xinjiang for intelligence gathering.

  However, this lone black glossy winged cloud disc was not one of the many carrier pigeons that flew back and forth between Cang Long Ridge and the various merchant houses in Nanjiang, but rather Irina's most beloved of her three treasured pigeons.

  From Canglong Ridge to Tangjiabao, Irina only brought her three pet doves with her, leaving all the other doves at Canglong Ridge, where they were fed by a special person.

  On the first night at T'ang's estate, this black glossy winged Cloud Disk was released by Irina.

  Less than three days later, it flew back.

  Seeing the delicate black tube tied to the pigeon's leg, Irina calmly picked up the pigeon and gently stroked its black feathers as if caressing her own beloved child, then removed the black tube and sat down on the edge of the bed, turning on the electric light in the room.

  Irina took out a thin hairpin from the jewelry box on her bedside, carefully picked up a roll of extremely fine paper tube from the black pipe, opened it and read it seriously, then immediately found a matchbox in the drawer, lit the white paper filled with tiny characters and burned it into ashes.

  After putting the pigeon back into its nest on the windowsill, Irina turned off the lights in the house and sat down alone in the darkness, silently sitting at the edge of the bed with her deeply furrowed eyebrows revealing that she was hiding some unknown secret within.

  Indeed, Irina had a secret that only she knew.

  In those years, in order to avenge the deep blood feud that destroyed her family, Irina was forced to join a very powerful spy organization and become its peripheral member. Her mission was to infiltrate Xinjiang, collect all useful intelligence, and report regularly to her superiors.

  For years, she has been active in the Iron Riders Alliance, using the Iron Riders Alliance as a cover to provide a large amount of valuable intelligence for this organization. After many years of careful observation and secret investigation, Irina finally uncovered the mysterious veil that shrouded the organization layer by layer.

  After finding out what kind of terrible organization she was in, Irina could hardly sleep at night. Because the highest level of this organization was actually the Presidential Secretariat, which is today's largest and most powerful spy agency.

  Irina made a bold inference based on the intelligence information she had, that President Yuan had already planted undercover agents among the Qing dynasty's military and political officials who might have connections with the revolutionary party before he became the provisional president of the Republic of China.

  At that time, in charge of this grand plan was the current head of the Secretariat, Tang Kuang.

  Xinjiang Governor Yang Zengxin was able to smoothly resolve the military government formed by the Ili Revolutionary Party, thanks to the large amount of important intelligence provided by Irina to the Presidential Palace Secret Affairs Bureau, which played a crucial role.

  Ever since Mu Hailin announced that the Iron Riders Alliance would be merging with the Tang Family Fortress in Duanhun Gorge, Irina had been filled with interest for this suddenly appearing mysterious Tang Family Fortress.

  As for Tang Dynasty, Irina was more curious about him. She wanted to know everything about this mysterious man, but unfortunately, she couldn't get any information about him. So far, there is almost zero information about Tang Dynasty.

  He is from where, when did he enter the Duanhun Gorge, when did the Tangjia Fortress start to be built, what kind of power is supporting behind, and so on. These are all things she wants to investigate as soon as possible now.

  She was well aware that even if she didn't want to investigate, it wouldn't be long before she received a secret order from the organization, instructing her to find out everything about Tangjia Fort.

  On the first night after arriving at Tang Family Mansion, Irina wrote a detailed report of the general situation here and sent it out with the black shiny winged Cloud Disk that was rarely used.

  As she had guessed, the order of the organization was soon brought back by Hei Liangyi's Treading Clouds Disk.

  However, this directive was still a bit beyond her expectations. It was actually from Tang Kuan, the great master of the capital city, who personally issued the order to her direct superior through radio transmission. Given that the situation she reported back was extremely important and highly valuable, she was specially promoted from an external member to an internal member, with her military rank rising two ranks from junior lieutenant to senior lieutenant, and was also awarded 500 taels of silver as an additional reward.

  At the same time, this directive also put forward strict requirements on wording, ordering her to spare no effort and investigate Tang Jiabao's personal data as soon as possible.

  For Tang Dynasty, Irina, who thought she knew men very well, still has an inexplicable feeling.

  To say that he is lustful, but he is not the kind of lustful person who only thinks with his lower body; But to say that he is not lustful, after several encounters with Tang Dynasty, Irina can clearly feel his strong possessiveness towards her body.

  What made Irina most uneasy was the mysterious black-clad bodyguards hiding behind Tang's back, whose numbers were unknown.

  Since being warned by the black-clad guards during her last nighttime visit to the Xinhua Building, Irina didn't dare to act rashly again. Based on her intuition from years of working as a journalist, these black-clad guards were absolutely the kind of elite warriors who had undergone rigorous training and were absolutely loyal to the Tang Dynasty. Trying to mess with these black-clad guards would only have one outcome: death!

  The mysterious Duanhun Gorge, the mysterious Tang Family Fortress, the mysterious Tang Dynasty, the mysterious black-clad guards... all of these things have a fatal attraction to Irina, yet at the same time give her a feeling of helpless despair.

  Those foolproof ways of dealing with stinky men that I used to use don't seem to be working here.

  In order to open up a breakthrough as soon as possible, Irina has been hinting to Mu Haiwei and Mu Haixia in the past two days, taking the opportunity to chat with them casually. The Mu family has guarded the Duanhun Gorge for over a thousand years, paying such a huge price, so it should only belong to the Mu family, not others.

  Mu Haiwei and Mu Haixia both had no reservations about expressing their discontent with Ilyna's hints, not only showing deep agreement but also strong resentment and dissatisfaction in their words, unwilling to accept that their family would become a vassal of others from now on.

  These two did not realize that they were being used by Irina as a gun, because in their minds, Irina, who had lived in Canglong Ridge for almost eight years, had long been integrated into the Mu family and was the only one who could be the eldest sister-in-law of the Mu family. They thought it was natural and logical that Irina would stand on the side of the Mu family to consider problems.

  Irina naturally thought that if she could stir up contradictions between the Mu and Tang families, or even trigger a conflict between them, then the Tang family would not be able to face the numerous and powerful Mu family alone. In this way, it was entirely possible to expose the true extent of the Tang family's hidden strength.

  Irina lay awake again tonight.

  Looking at Irina sitting on the bed staring blankly at the screen, Tang Dynasty's heart was also filled with doubts.

  Who told Irina what information?

  Is it an internal affair of the Iron Riders Alliance, or is there another reason?

  After deliberating for half a day, he still couldn't get the hang of it. Next, Tang Dynasty secretly observed Irina through surveillance, but couldn't find any valuable clues from her facial expressions and actions, and gradually felt bored over time.

  About forty minutes passed like this, Tang Dynasty stretched out his hands and let out a long yawn.

  Forget it, I won't look at it anymore, I'll just ask her when I have a chance.

  Tang Dynasty got up, turned off the monitor, said hello to the kitten, turned around and left the control room. He walked hastily all the way back to his bedroom through a secret passage.

  On the bed, Lan Xin seemed to be sleeping soundly.

  Tang Chao quietly took off his clothes and changed into pajamas, then crept onto the bed, into the warm and cozy quilt.

  Her icy body gave Lan Xin a fright, she opened her eyes to see that it was Tang Chao, then let out a soft "mmm" and leaned her delicate body into him, continuing to sleep.

  Hehe, having someone to warm up the bed on a night like this is just great!

  The Tang Dynasty gently hugged the little darling in his arms, closed his eyes with relish, and soon fell asleep.
