Jing Zhe came back after only half an hour of going out, but he was alone. He greeted Qin Yining first, and then whispered beside her: "Princess, Master Xia's subordinates have been found. It's just that Master Xia seems to be ill. He closed the door and refused to see the guests. When his subordinates passed the word, they came back and returned to order."
Qin Yining's beautiful willow frowned.
This is not quite right.
Qin Yining went to the capital of Great Zhou that day. Because he wanted to open up the situation in the north, he brought the most trusted shopkeeper Zhong Da. All of her farms, pavilions, and caravans and gangs that transport food and goods in the south have already been discovered. As long as they are stable, they do not need to be developed. Moreover, the south is their base after all, and the lady of Dingguo takes care of them. Therefore, shopkeeper Zhong Da recommended to Qin Yining his most trusted second shopkeeper to take over the affairs of the South.
The shopkeeper Xia Da is not confused, he is the strongest and most stable age for a man, and Qin Yining has always trusted him.
Who knew that such a thing would happen today.
The shopkeeper Xia Da is not someone who doesn't know how to behave. It makes no sense that she, the owner of the family, returned to the old capital with great momentum. The big shopkeeper under her would pretend not to know. No one was invited.
It would be fine if the shopkeeper Xia was so sick that he couldn't get out of bed. If not, things would not be easy to handle.
"When you went, was there anything unusual in the shopkeeper Xia's house?"
Jing Zhe thought about it carefully, then shook his head and said, "The maid of the shopkeeper Xia Da's house doesn't look abnormal, and the family doesn't seem to see anything going on. I think that nothing major happened."
"I see, it's hard for you to take this trip, go down and rest." Qin Yining nodded and thanked Jing Zhe politely.
Jing Zhe was flattered, and waved his hands again and again: "It is my subordinate's duty to do things for the princess. The princess should be more polite with her subordinates, and her subordinates will retire."
Jing Zhe bowed and stepped back slowly. Qin Yining couldn't help but chuckle when he looked at his bowed head respectfully.
However, after laughing, Qin Yining fell into contemplation again.
The situation at the shopkeeper Xia was really suspicious.
This made Qin Yining think of Pang Xiao's situation. Deng Minchang, who was supposed to come to see Pang Xiao, didn't show up, and Pang Xiao hurried to the military camp to check the situation, and he didn't know what the situation was now.
It seems that after Yuchiyan and Gu Shixiong returned to the south, the people on the land that belonged to Dayan no longer recognized themselves as Dazhou people.
This is understandable. After all, how long did it take for the Dayan Dynasty to perish? In everyone's memory, the Yan Dynasty was the country they recognized in their hearts. Even if the emperor was ruthless and tyrannical, it would not be able to offset the Yan Dynasty's status in the hearts of the common people. Will force myself not to make decisions by emotion, but to analyze the situation rationally and look at the problem.
Qin Yining rubbed his brows, leaned on the soft pillow and closed his eyes.
When Xu Shi was pregnant, she stayed by Pang Xiao's side all the time, and she was so well protected that when she needed her brains to plan again, she would even feel uncomfortable.
In fact, if she doesn't do anything, she can just take care of the children at home. Pang Xiao is a capable and responsible person, and he will definitely handle everything properly, so that she will not be wronged. That's it.
But she didn't want to be a burden. She wants to be a person who can stand side by side with Pang Xiao, not a person who hides behind Pang Xiao. If she becomes like that, she will become the same as the rest of the women. What reason does Pang Xiao have to be single-minded? she
Qin Yining never felt that the other party had to concentrate on himself in matters of affection. Relationships need to be managed, and marriage needs to be managed. It does not mean that with love, you can do whatever you want.
On the contrary, it is precisely because of love that you need to take care of yourself, improve yourself, and work hard.
Besides, in order to add another layer of protection to Brother Zhao and Brother Han, Qin Yining couldn't let himself relax.
Thinking of this, Qin Yining suddenly sat up straight, her eyes burst with determination, and her whole person's spirit was different from before.
No, she can't let herself get used to relying on Pang Xiao, she has to be independent, not because she doesn't believe in Pang Xiao, but to be like her grandmother, even one person can support the whole family, so that it will be better if she survives 's confidence.
"Princess, shopkeeper Zhong Da is here." Xianyun outside the door whispered.
"Come in quickly." Qin Yining stood up and walked to the main room for the guests. Just as he sat down, the dark green oleander warm curtain was lifted, and a gust of cold wind rushed in. The shopkeeper Zhong Da got into the room with a short body.
"Princess." The shopkeeper Zhong Da saluted.
"No need to be polite, please sit down." Qin Yining smiled and ordered someone to prepare tea, and then asked, "How is the Grange going?"
Jiyun came into the room with a double-beam black lacquer tray, placed two white porcelain blue-and-white covered bowls on the square table beside Qin Yining and shopkeeper Zhong Da, and walked out with a salute.
The storekeeper Zhong Da nodded in greeting, and when there was no one else in the room, he whispered: "Princess, I'll be honest, it's not going well for me to go to a few Zhuangzi this time, so I don't have any problems with the dozen or so Zhuangzi in the back and our shop. Look carefully, and hurriedly come back to you to answer. I'm afraid of the snake."
Qin Yining nodded understandingly and said: "It seems that there is indeed a problem here. I am not very smooth here. The news that I and the prince are here should not be a secret. But the shopkeeper Xia did not take the initiative to come to the door. People went to look for it, but the shopkeeper Xia Da said that the illness was gone. I have already started to guess, but I didn't expect it to be the same with you. "
Shopkeeper Zhong Da shook his head a little remorsefully: "This matter is my dereliction of duty. At first, I thought that the south was stable enough to be our backing, but when I handed it over to Shopkeeper Xia, I didn't care anymore, I just wanted to follow the princess. It’s easy to settle down in the capital, develop a lot, and buy a family business, and I will neglect the affairs in the south.”
"this is not your fault."
Qin Yining reassured: "I know you did your best. Besides, we are all in the capital of Dazhou, and it is indeed far from Emperor Shangao. By the way, I asked you to inform the shopkeeper Xia earlier, and you must give it to me in time along the way. Come to the news to report the situation in the city, have you notified it?"
The storekeeper Zhong Da nodded and said, "I ordered people to hurry up and send the letter."
Qin Yining smiled playfully, and curled his long hair on his temples with his fingers, "This is interesting. After Boss Zhong left the team, I didn't receive a single letter, and I didn't get a message from anyone. Obviously, Boss Xia was the Take this command as a deaf ear."
"This old boy is going to turn against him!" Master Zhong slapped the table angrily.
