When Qi Ning heard her saying "I'm sorry, husband", his heart skipped a beat and he immediately calmed down.
He was a little drunk, and when he saw the beauty, she was round and beautiful, and he started to think about it. At this time, he was awakened by these words, and he knew that Tian Xuerong was not a frivolous and romantic person. She was kind enough to entertain him. If he took the opportunity to do something to her, The plot is too unreasonable.
Qining is not Liu Xiahui. Like most men, he will have feelings for beautiful women, but he is not a promiscuous person with no bottom line. She knows that Mrs. Tian is respectful to her now. In the final analysis, it is because Because of his identity, even if the other person doesn't hate him, and even has a good impression of him, he is far from being in a relationship with him.
In fact, it is precisely because he knows that Mrs. Tian is a womanly person that Qi Ning has a great affection for her and is willing to help her occasionally. If this woman is really a watery person, Qi Ning will only I was afraid that I would be far away from her long ago.
Qi Ning never forced himself on women, otherwise he would have had many opportunities to occupy Gu Qinghan's body, but he always stopped in moderation and did not violate the final bottom line.
Mrs. Tian arranged for the old housekeeper to be nearby today, and her intention was naturally obvious. Qining knew that if he really did something wrong to her at this time, it must have gone against her will. If one day Tian Xuerong is really willing to get close to him, Qining Naturally, he wants it, but he will never force the other party to do anything if the other party is unwilling.
Deep down in his heart, he hates people who bully the weak. If he uses his status as Jin Yihou to plot against Tian Xuerong tonight, what difference will he have between him and the people he hates
A man has something to do and something not to do. Qining thought about this and knew that the time had not come yet. It was not difficult for him to resolve the embarrassment in front of him. He deliberately softened his hand, let go of Tian Xuerong's wrist, and closed it. Eyes, head tilted, and suddenly started snoring.
Tian Xuerong was startled.
If Qining really wants to have something happen with her tonight, she thinks of Tian Fu, and maybe she insists for a few moments and then agrees once she lets go, but that must be against her will, and after a night of happiness, she will definitely feel sad in her heart. Somewhat painful.
At this time, Qi Ning suddenly snored and seemed to be sleeping soundly. Mrs. Tian bit her red lips and turned her head slightly to look at Qi Ning.
She is a very smart woman, but she doesn't understand the meaning.
Even if Qi Ning is drunk, it is impossible for him to fall asleep in the blink of an eye. What he does is just to resolve the embarrassing atmosphere. This also shows that he does not want to force others to make things difficult, and he still has a bottom line.
Tian Xuerong was slightly moved in her heart.
She has been in the capital for many years and has naturally seen all kinds of people in the business world. Naturally, she has seen a lot of people who bully others. Qining is a dignified marquis. With his status, if he really bullies others, there are really not many people who dare to offend her. She is nothing more than a widow who supports a merchant, has no big backing, and has people to ask for. It is really difficult for Qining to bully others.
Of course she knew that Qining's ability to restrain his impulsiveness at this time required much more perseverance than ordinary people.
Mrs. Tian knew her advantages, and she also knew that although she was over thirty years old, with her delicate appearance and slender body, as long as she showed a little bit of amorous feelings, it was enough to make most men fascinated. Qi Ning was drunk. After that, it was really commendable that a man and a woman alone could face themselves in a room and still be able to stop.
At this time, I didn't feel any resentment for Qi Ning's overstepping of courtesy just now. Instead, I felt that Qi Ning was really different from ordinary people. In addition to gratitude, I felt a little bit of admiration in my heart.
Qining snored loudly, and Tian Xuerong knew that it was intentional. It was obviously to give herself a chance to leave. She stood up gently, took two steps, looked back, and finally walked around the screen lightly and went out.
Qi Ning waited for Tian Xuerong to go around the screen and looked at Tian Xuerong's round and beautiful figure through the screen. He sighed softly in his heart, but also thought that since she is the woman he likes, she can never escape from his grasp and will not have the chance to create opportunities in the future. Gotta take it too.
Mrs. Tian went out, gently closed the piano room door, and turned around. At this time, she felt her face flush and her heart beating. She put a hand on her chest, closed her eyes, calmed herself down, and looked back. The door of the house was closed by himself, and he sighed quietly, thought for a while, and then murmured to himself: "If you want to have so many women, why do you insist on falling in love with me, an old woman? It's really... really annoying."
She gently raised a jade arm and pulled up the sleeve slightly. The arm under the sleeve was tender and tight, like a girl. Mrs. Tian bit her lip, turned her beautiful eyes, but couldn't help but smile on her lips. Come.
Qi Ning just pretended to sleep at first, but the alcohol was indeed very powerful, and later on, he fell asleep half asleep.
When he woke up, he found that he was covered with a thin blanket, but he didn't know who covered him. He turned over, moved his body, looked around, and found that he was still sleeping in Qin's house at Tian's house. Inside the room, only the doors and windows have been closed.
Qining stretched, walked to the window, opened the window, and a breath of fresh air rushed in, making people feel refreshed. Only then did he realize that it was raining lightly outside. No wonder he didn't feel hot when he woke up just now, but It turned out that it rained after I fell asleep last night.
It is already summer, and the rains in summer are usually fierce, but at this time it is drizzling outside, more like the drizzle in March in the south of the Yangtze River.
Qi Ning was a little surprised. He was extremely alert. Even if he fell asleep, he could immediately detect even the slightest movement around him. However, he slept very soundly last night and woke up to dawn.
At this time, I saw a beautiful figure holding an oil paper umbrella on the light blue stone path outside, holding a skirt in one hand, coming gracefully.
Qi Ning looked at the beautiful figure holding an oil-paper umbrella in the drizzle. It looked antique, and in front of him seemed to be an open picture of a lady from the south of the Yangtze River.
"Master Hou, are you awake?" Tian Xuerong's voice came from the other side. The oil-paper umbrella was held up. Tian Xuerong came over with a slight smile and a soft voice: "Breakfast is ready, Master Hou, take a shower and then you can eat." .”
She had a beautiful smile and a soft voice, and she seemed to have forgotten what happened last night.
Qining sighed, thinking that this Tian Xuerong was indeed a woman who became more and more beautiful the more she looked at her. The strong femininity exuding from her whole body was indeed unforgettable.
"Good morning, Madam." Qi Ning smiled and said, "I fell asleep without knowing it last night. I don't even know what I said. If you talk nonsense when you are drunk, Madam, please be careful and don't take it to heart."
However, Tian Xuerong did not enter the room. Instead, she walked to the window and said with a smile: "Master Hou speaks in a measured manner. How can he talk nonsense when he is drunk. Master Hou, I will send someone to wash your cough immediately."
She wore a narrow-sleeved gauze blouse as thin as cicada wings, lined with cloud-purple damask myrobalan, and a slightly green jade-colored silk skirt underneath, with a small silk knot at the placket. Wearing a Lingxu bun that smells like a mature woman, her face is really radiant and gorgeous.
"I'll take a shower and go out soon." Qi Ning said, "Madam, there's no need to prepare breakfast. It's too much trouble."
Tian Xuerong smiled charmingly, her beautiful eyes were as silk as silk, "The Marquis still said such polite words, if it means trouble, I will have many places to trouble the Marquis."
Qining laughed and was no longer polite. After Tian Xuerong asked someone to come over and wash his cough, he took Qining to the restaurant to have breakfast. At this time, the drizzle stopped slightly, but Tian Xuerong had already prepared an oil-paper umbrella. , Qining only felt that this lady was considerate and meticulous, and she even liked her.
His previous interest in Tian Xuerong was more physical, but now he feels that Tian Xuerong is considerate, gentle, and considerate. She is very shrewd in business, but very gentle at home. There is a vague shadow of Gu Qinghan, but she and Gu Qinghan have another relationship. Big is different.
After breakfast, it was not convenient for Tian Xuerong to send Qining out in front of too many people, so she asked the old housekeeper to send him out.
Qi Ning originally wanted to go back to the Hou Mansion, but then he thought about it. Today was the last day he had made an appointment with the emperor. The emperor gave Qi Ning three days to reply to the marriage proposal. He had not yet met Ximen Zhanying, so naturally he wanted to do so today. Go to Shenhou Mansion, meet Ximen Zhanying, and try to trick Ximen Zhanying.
In Xiangyang, Lu Shanghe suddenly disappeared, and the Shenhou Mansion was about to investigate the matter. Qining took this opportunity to go to the Shenhou Mansion.
He is now quite familiar with Shenhou Mansion, and he is familiar with the roads. When he arrived at Shenhou Mansion, after reporting, Tanlang Colonel Qu Xiaocang came out to greet him in person.
Qu Xiaocang welcomed Qi Ning into the lobby of Shenhou Mansion very respectfully. Qi Ning saw no sign of Ximen Zhanying, but he couldn't open his mouth. The first question was to ask about Ximen Zhanying's whereabouts, and asked with a smile: "Qu Xiaowei, Why don’t you see God?”
Qu Xiaocang sighed: "Master Hou doesn't know something. Shenhou has been feeling unwell recently and has been resting at Xianleju. Shenhou is older and always feels a little uncomfortable. Junior sister has also been here these days. It’s relatively late, I need to take care of Shenhou first at Xianleju.”
"Are you feeling unwell?" Qi Ning was stunned, "Then I'll go visit you later."
Qu Xiaocang immediately said: "Master Marquis, the Divine Marquis refuses to see guests. He also made a request to the Holy One to recuperate at home. Recently, he has not even been able to attend court meetings."
Qi Ning thought that was the case, no wonder there had been no trace of Ximen Wuhen recently. At this moment, someone brought tea. Qin Ning glanced at it, and it was none other than Lieutenant Yan Lingxian of the Po Military Academy.
Yan Lingxian lowered his head and placed the tea cup on the table in Qi Ning's hand. He raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Qi Ning. Qi Ning happened to be looking at him as well. Their eyes met. Yan Lingxian's face changed color slightly, and he immediately He lowered his head, not daring to look at Qining.
Qi Ning was amused, knowing what Yan Lingxian was thinking, so he deliberately asked: "How is Colonel Yan doing lately? He has been missing for a while."
Yan Lingxian forced a smile and said: "Thank you for your concern, Lord Marquis. Everything is fine."
When returning to Beijing from Xichuan, Qi Ning discovered the secret of Yan Lingxian's secret practice of the Reverse Hand Spirit Sword, and for this reason, Yan Lingxian surrendered. Qining helped Yan Lingxian keep this secret, and even made him become his own The spy in Shenhou Mansion.
Yan Lingxian naturally knew that if there was any leakage about his secret practice of the Reverse Hand Spirit Sword, neither Ximen Wuhen nor the person who passed it on would be able to allow him to continue living. Therefore, although he had resentment towards Qi Ning in his heart, there was more But he was frightened, and when he saw Qi Ning, his heart suddenly surged.
