If Mrs. Liao hadn't taken the initiative to find her, Qin Yining would never have gone to see Mrs. Liao easily when the sage secretly came to the disaster area and led troops to surround the old capital. They were already on the cusp of the storm, and they would have to suffer a few things if they had nothing to do. What's more, promise to meet a raw face
Qin Yining thought that what she could understand must be understood by a shrewd person like Mrs. Liao.
So she came here at this time, which can only mean that something big happened outside.
Either the Qingtian Alliance has a problem that they can't solve internally, or it is related to the most important treasure right now.
Qin Yining didn't know if she was thinking too much, or if she was affected by the tragic situation in the disaster area. Since she came to Yangxian, she was always apprehensive, and she always felt like something was going to happen.
When Qin Yining was thinking about it, he heard footsteps outside. Ji Yun wore a splendid lake blue robe with a face, and Mrs. Liao, who had a silver hairpin on her head in a high bun, entered the door.
Seeing Qin Yining, Mrs. Liao hurriedly gave a big gift and said, "The woman has seen the princess."
"Get up, Sister Liao is an old acquaintance. You don't need to be so polite." Qin Yining sat in the first place and pointed to the vacant seat beside him, "Please take a seat. Serve tea."
"Thank you, Princess." Mrs. Liao lowered her eyebrows and sat down on the side, and said respectfully, "A civilian woman is only a businessman's wife. Beyond the rules."
Qin Yining smiled slightly when he heard the words, and said, "Sister Liao was born with the courage to speak in the blink of an eye. It's just that I remember that Sister Liao went out to do business with her husband. How could she come to the disaster area?"
Mrs. Liao smiled shyly and said, "It is true that I went to do business with my husband. But when I heard about the disaster here, I wanted to do my part and do something for the people, so I specially brought some Food and medicinal materials are coming. It's just that the mountain road is really difficult to walk, and it takes a lot of time on the road. Only when I got here did I know that the disaster relief ambassador is the prince, and that the princess is also here, so I came to pay a special visit."
Qin Yining showed a happy expression, and said quite movingly: "Sister Liao really understands the righteousness, you have done a great deed for the people! I will thank Sister Liao on behalf of the people!"
Qin Yining said and stood up and bowed.
Mrs. Liao jumped up and hurriedly jumped up to support her hands in fear, "What is the princess doing? This is impossible! You and the lord have a deep understanding of righteousness and sacrificed a lot for the people in the disaster area. We people have nothing to do Talent, food and medicinal materials that can be contributed are also limited, but I can't afford such a big gift from you."
When helping, a small ball of paper was stuffed into Qin Yining's hands through the cover of his sleeve.
Qin Yining calmly held the paper ball tightly, and after a few polite words with Mrs. Liao, she ordered someone to go out to receive food, grass and medicinal materials, select them clearly, and record them in the book.
He also personally sent Mrs. Liao out, and sincerely thanked the people in the disaster area again.
After Mrs. Liao left, the guard in front of the door who helped transport the food and medicinal materials was still sighing: "It seems that there are still many good people. There are still such benevolent and righteous businessmen in the world who are willing to spend a lot of money for irrelevant people."
"The lord also donated 50,000 taels of silver for the victims, saying that the house that the princess was dowry was sold."
"Alas. As long as the Ding family and the Pei family have a little bit of kindness, they will not be smashed into the whole family. When the prince went to them to talk about buying grain and rice, they killed a stone of brown rice for twelve taels of silver. , those who are rich and ruthless are even more vicious than road gangsters! Now all the doors are gone, and they are self-inflicted!"
…
Qin Yining listened to this person discussing the affairs of the Ding family and the Pei family. Because she came up with the "bad idea", she felt guilty for those old and weak women and children who had not done bad things but were burdened by their family members.
With a heavy heart, she returned to Houya, screened the others away, and Qin Yining kept Ji Yun and Bingtang by her side to serve.
As soon as the outsiders left, Qin Yining asked Ji Yun in a low voice, "Are you looking around for safety?"
Ji Yun's expression froze, and he looked around carefully to make sure that no one was watching, so he nodded to Qin Yining.
Qin Yining immediately unfolded the note, browsed through the dense teeny small characters, and read it carefully from beginning to end twice.
The last thing she wanted finally happened.
The treasure was indeed robbed by the Qingtian Alliance and the silver-faced spies. Mrs. Liao, as the contact person of the Qingtian League leader, will also receive the movements reported by carrier pigeons from those who act in front every day.
The last carrier pigeon that Mrs. Liao received was someone from the Qingtian League who reported that the silver-faced spy had different intentions and that the treasure was in danger.
Later, Mrs. Liao never received carrier pigeons again. She turned around to investigate, and only recently learned that the treasure had arrived in Yangxian for some reason.
She brought people to investigate, but she never found the whereabouts of the treasure, let alone what happened to the silver-faced spy and the Qingtian Alliance.
Silver-faced spies are all elites. Although the Qingtian League has a large number of people, most of them are rabble. If they really talk about martial arts, I am afraid that they are really not the opponents of silver-faced spies. If there is another mental calculation and no intention, they may really be wiped out by the six people who are the silver-faced spies.
This is the disadvantage of not having one's own direct descendants. It seems that these two forces are used by her, but the real wealth is touching, and the two groups are finally at war.
Qin Yining's face was extremely ugly. After a long while, he breathed a sigh of relief, got up and took off the lampshade on the silk lamp, lit the note, and watched it burn to ashes and scattered on the ground.
"Princess, are you alright?" Bingtang worriedly supported Qin Yining's arm and let her sit down, touching her cold fingertips, which made her even more worried.
"It's still early summer, and your hands are so cold. Wang Fei, listen to the advice of your servant. You have been injured and lost your blood in the past, but you haven't fully recovered yet, so don't worry about these things. You still have the prince. You can support yourself, and you have to take good care of yourself." Bingtang persuaded her with her hands covered.
Ji Yun also sighed and said, "We also know that things are difficult to do, but don't carry it on your own, don't feel bored and get sick, the gains outweigh the losses."
Qin Yining nodded with a wry smile, and said, "I don't understand what you said. It's just that there are a few people who don't care about it at all."
Bingtang and Jiyun couldn't ask the reason in detail, so they could only talk about some other things to solve it.
When Pang Xiao came back, Qin Yining whispered the matter in his ear.
Pang Xiao put his arms around her thin shoulders and put a soothing kiss on her forehead, "I understand, don't worry about this matter, I will order someone to investigate. Now that the Holy Soldier is coming, he will quietly stay outside. , I am the object of his distrust and precaution, so we can't act rashly to avoid suspicion."
"I understand. When Mrs. Liao came, she said she was here to donate food and medicinal materials, so it shouldn't arouse much suspicion."
"Well, the nearby state capital has also voluntarily donated rice and grain. The situation of the victims is improving little by little."
Qin Yining heard the words, and finally felt relieved, and sighed: "This is the only thing that can make people feel at ease recently."
Pang Xiao sighed and hugged her tightly in his arms.
He married her, but he put her in danger with him. Sometimes Pang Xiao even secretly hates his own selfishness. If it wasn't for him, how could Qin Yining be trapped in this quagmire
Pang Xiao's complexion became extremely gloomy.
Some thoughts that have long been in my heart, after seeing the people close to them suffer, gradually become firm.
After several days of investigation, Yang County was the most severely damaged area. Therefore, Pang Xiao took Qin Yining to station here, and the Gong Zhifu was fully represented in the old capital.
Solving the food problem can guarantee lives, people are no longer so anxious, and control is much easier. Some big local households have learned the lessons of Ding’s and Pei’s in Yangxian County, and selling rice at lower prices is not high-end, and even began to take the initiative. Donate food.
For a time, the entire disaster area was in ruins.
Pang Xiao and Gong You negotiated to clear out the roads leading from the old capital to various places first, and then restore the traffic to facilitate the transportation of food.
Qin Yining mostly stayed in the mansion, listening to Pang Xiao's words and taking care of her body quietly.
Who would have guessed that Qin Yining was reading a book in his room when the rear window lattice was suddenly tapped twice.
Ji Yun was shocked and scolded: "Who?"
The people outside were silent for a moment, then suddenly opened the window, and one rolled over and jumped in.
Qin Yining looked at the person in front of her in astonishment and whispered, "Cao Huwei? Why are you here?"
The person who came was Cao Yuqing, who was dressed in dark blue and short brown, dressed in men's clothing.
Qin Yining grabbed Cao Yuqing's hand and asked worriedly, "Did something happen in Beijing? How is my father? How is your family?"
Seeing that Qin Yining was so nervous, Cao Yuqing couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, everything in the capital is under control, and your lord is also very good. It's just that after hearing some news, your lord decides that there will be big changes here. The hands of all the people have been exposed, it is inconvenient to mobilize, and it is not convenient for the others to leave the capital. It is easy for me as a woman to find any reason, and lied that I was comfortable and needed to rest for more than a month. Let me quietly come to your side for protection. you."
Qin Yining blinked, and said with some understanding: "Did my father claim to have taken your house?"
Hearing this, Cao Yuqing blushed, and said, "Yes, he planned to let me out to protect you a month ago, but he couldn't find a valid excuse, so he said that I was a confinement child, and he wanted to stay in bed because of the wind. , I can get out now. But your mother had a lot of vinegar, and she was in a cold war with your father when I went out. "
Qin Yining naturally knew Sun's temper, and she couldn't help feeling overwhelmed when she thought that in order to send someone to her, her father had to be accompanied by a good reputation and tranquility.
But it is Cao Yuqing who should be most grateful.
If it were another person, I'm afraid I wouldn't be willing to bear such a black cauldron, right
Qin Yining knew that Cao Yuqing always had Qin Huaiyuan in his heart. It is precisely because of this concern that Cao Yuqing would rather not marry and be a guard by Qin Huaiyuan's side, so that he would obey Qin Huaiyuan's words. Her unrequited love is truly heartbreaking.
