As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
No one could have imagined that the Sage would still value Prince Zhongshun so highly.
When arranging his errands in other places, he can understand his newly married Yan Er and allow her to travel with the princess.
It seems that the sage is still as reliant on Prince Zhongshun as before!
Regardless of what other people thought, Pang Xiao saw Li Qitian's calculation clearly at this time.
He clearly wanted to block him, reminding him that Qin Yining was once coveted by Yuchi Yan. With Qin Yining on the side, the chances of "rival in love" cooperation can be greatly reduced.
Pang Xiao said in his mouth, "Thank you, Sheng Shanglong, for this minister's decree!"
In his heart, he despised Li Qitian's style of a woman's family thoroughly.
Li Qitian is probably thinking that Qin Yining once had a kiss with Yuchi Yan in the Dayan Dynasty, and Yuchi Yan often appeared to have a deep-rooted affection for Qin Yining. If they walked away this time, they must be able to add a lot to each other, right
But what Li Qitian didn't know, now Pang Xiao no longer has any resentment in his heart, he will not doubt Qin Yining's loyalty to him, and he has enough confidence in himself.
He believed that Yuchi Yan would not be able to turn the waves in front of him.
However, Li Qitian understood Pang Xiao's dignified expression as depressed, and his mood was even better. He said loudly: "In this case, the matter is settled like this. You all go back and prepare. Set off early the next morning.
"The minister obeys the order! Long live the saint, long live, long live!"
After the court dispersed, Pang Xiao walked at the end of the line of ministers with a wooden face.
I was thinking of going back and discussing with Qin Huaiyuan what to pay attention to during this trip. Who knows, before I have gone far, there will be a servant in the house to send a message, "My lord, please go to the imperial study immediately."
A few people near Pang Xiao heard it, and knew that it must be the sage who wanted to arrange some important task for Pang Xiao. He is both envious and fearful of his current glory.
Pang Xiao nodded and went all the way to the imperial study with the servant.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Li Qitian sitting on the armchair on one side, with a very leisurely posture.
"Saint Wan'an!" Pang Xiao approached and saluted.
Li Qitian smiled and said, "You're here, no gift, come and sit."
How dare Pang Xiao really avoid the ceremony. After all, it was after all the courtesy that he went to the starting position and sat down carefully.
Seeing him being so respectful, Li Qitian smiled slightly, and said, "I called you here, you must be able to understand why. This time to the south, I only assign you one task, and that is to carefully supervise King Yan and his party throughout the entire process. Take action. I will give you all 30 carrier pigeons, and you will take them to the south together. As soon as there is any news or something suspicious, I will send the carrier pigeons to reply."
Carrier pigeons are specially trained, no matter how far they fly, as long as they are free, they can fly back to their nests.
Therefore, the carrier pigeons that deliver letters do not fly around at will, and they need to go through fixed-point training.
Pang Xiao understood Li Qitian's intention and said in a low voice, "Is the sage worried that the King of Yan County is still in contact with Dayan's old ministers?"
Li Qitian nodded and said: "This is one of the things. The other point is also the most important point. I am worried that if I let him go this time, he will find the treasure by himself, and then take the treasure as his own, and recruit troops and horses to join me. Enemy. In that case, I will really become a tiger returning to the mountain."
When Pang Xiao heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Sacred Shang Shengming, there are no omissions, where will the kind of thing you say happen. Don't worry, this minister will definitely do his best to handle the errand."
"Very good, I believe in you. This is the first time that you have led the Longchung army to send troops, so you have to be careful. I will arrange for you a competent lieutenant, who was originally a talent in the Longchung army. Don't be too tired, you can ask him to do it if you have something to do."
This is even the nails are blatantly inserted!
"Yes. The minister obeys the order." Pang Xiao saluted respectfully, and did not show the slightest emotion about Li Qitian's arrangement, but just obeyed the orders.
Li Qitian achieved his goal, and continued to act impatiently. He just told Pang Xiao with a smile, and said, "You should go back earlier, too, and arrange for the princess to get ready. Is she in good shape now?"
Pang Xiao frowned slightly, and said worriedly, "She is not in good health. Perhaps it was because she suffered too much in the early years that her foundation was damaged. The imperial doctor prescribed a prescription for Haosheng to recuperate."
Li Qitian didn't really care about Qin Yining, but he was just being polite. Seeing Pang Xiao's sadness, he had no choice but to patiently comfort him a few words before ordering Li Guanwen to send Pang Xiao off.
Pang Xiao respectfully saluted and walked out of the imperial study, and walked with Li Guanwen on the long palace road one after the other.
On the ground paved with bluestone bricks, tenacious grasses stretch out from many gaps, and the red walls and green tiles separate the blue sky into a slender space.
Pang Xiao thought about it for a while, and then said: "Director Li, when this king is away from Beijing, the sage's side will have to work harder for the sage. If the court is bigger, it must be supported by the saint, what if he is sick? Isn't the court going to be in chaos?"
"What the lord said," Li Guanwen looked at Pang Xiao with a moving expression, and said, "In the end, the lord knows how to care about the sage, and the servants follow the sage all day, and most of all know the hard work of the sage. Rest assured, the lord, the servants must do their best. A good life to serve the Lord."
"With Director Li here, this king has nothing to worry about. Then we will meet again."
Pang Xiao and Li Guanwen bowed politely and left quickly.
Li Guanwen stood where he was and watched Pang Xiao go away before returning to the imperial study with a smile, and casually said Pang Xiao's concern for the Sage.
Li Qitian only smiled when he heard it, he didn't seem to take it seriously, and he didn't take it seriously.
When Pang Xiao brought Hu Zi back to the palace, Qin Yining had already received the news that he wanted to accompany Pang Xiao on the trip.
The news came so suddenly that Qin Yining was stunned for a while, but Li Qitian's careful thoughts were obvious, and she understood the relationship after a little thought.
Since it was the imperial decree, it was irresistible no matter what. The sage had arranged for her to accompany Pang Xiao, and she was in harmony with her. Not only because the newlywed Yan Er was reluctant to part, but most importantly because this trip would never be as simple as disaster relief.
Qin Yining called Ji Yun and whispered in her ear: "Go to where the shopkeeper Zhong Da is and say that I asked him to find Mrs. Liao's spices a while ago. I want to use it now, please ask the shopkeeper Zhong Da. I want to meet Mrs. Liao. In addition, you go home and tell my father, I want to see Mrs. Cao. "
When Ji Yun heard the words, his face turned pale, and he quickly walked out to do things as instructed.
Pang Xiao stood by the door for a long time, listening to Qin Yining's instructions, then approached with a smile and asked, "What kind of spices do you want? There seems to be some spice bait in our warehouse. I'll look for it when I look back. come to you."
Hearing this, Qin Yining couldn't help but squeeze Pang Xiao's earlobe with a smile.
His ear lobes are lucky at first glance, and the roots of his ears are surprisingly soft.
She was addicted to pinching and said with a smile: "I don't want any spice. You know the Qingtian League, right?"
Pang Xiao hugged her waist, put his face on her shoulder, and said gently, "Of course I know."
Qin Yining said: "That Mrs. Liao is a member of the Qingtian Alliance, and I am the person I used to communicate with the several hall masters of the Qingtian Alliance."
"Sister Yi, you..."
"Don't you know that I am the leader of the Qingtian Alliance? Although the Dayan Dynasty is now dead, most of the people of the Qingtian Alliance have re-registered in the Yellow Book, and they have changed their minds and become the citizens of Dazhou. However, those led by the Qingtian Alliance , No matter which emperor they are, they will only think that they are scoundrels and thieves, so they are all black households without a yellow book, and they do not dare to show their faces, so they only do some business on the border of the Tartars."
Pang Xiao could not have imagined that Qin Yining would show him all her trump cards, not to mention how capable she was, her trust and sincerity were enough to move Pang Xiao.
He felt as if he was immersed in warm water, and that warm water was exactly Qin Yining's embrace.
He touched her cheek with his cheek, and his breath blew on her ear: "Your name is someone from the Qingtian Alliance, do you have any arrangements?"
Qin Yining was provoked by his breath and burrowed into his arms, panting slightly: "I'm just in case, because I don't think this trip is easy, and the saint should have a backer for treasure.
"The soldiers you are going to take out this time are all the Longchung Army, and because the sage is suspicious, he will never let you contact the people in the Longchong Army alone, so he will definitely be installed in the Longchong Army. A big nail, let the nail touch you, it can be considered to control you.
"That would be too passive, and I don't want you to be directly under their blade."
Pang Xiao smiled moved: "My daughter-in-law is really smart and capable. I don't even want to be a prince, so I'll just be your husband at home and eat your soft rice and tofu. You say how good it is."
Qin Yining heard the seriousness in Pang Xiao's words, and she understood that it was not that Pang Xiao didn't want to make progress, but that he was just too tired.
"There will be opportunities in the future. When the time comes, let's find a place where no one will disturb us and live this kind of life."
"How can you eat tofu?" Pang Xiao was very moved, but he couldn't help but tease her.
Qin Yining's face flushed red at what he said, and he pinched his ear before saying, "Seriously, why are you doing this."
Seeing that her face was not only teased, but her neck was flushed, Pang Xiao smiled and said: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore, I have to contact the people from the Qingtian League, understandable, then your father's bodyguard, Madam Cao, She must have been your aunt."
"Well, she is the head of the silver-faced spy, and you should have heard of it. Besides, the four of them, Daxue, are all silver-faced spy. This time I go out, I want to let the Qingtian League and the silver-faced spy go out. Our people are secretly cooperating with us. Because you are in the army, including your elite tiger guards, I am afraid that you will be watched by the people of Longchong army, and you will be too passive if you don’t have competent people by your side.”
