Pang Xiao put one hand behind his back, and stretched out one arm to help him with his back straight.
The two of them treated each other like guests perfectly.
It's just that in their hearts, they both want to hug each other at this time.
Qin Yining got into the carriage, and Pang Xiao also got on his horse and walked behind him, "This king is going back to the military camp just in time to give you a ride."
Pang Xiao said to send him a ride, but he kept sending Qin Yining and the emissary back to Beijing more than 100 miles outside the old capital. This place is completely opposite to the Pingnan Army Camp. If you go further, go to Pingnan Army. Camp is too far away.
Urging the horse to walk beside Qin Yining's carriage, Pang Xiao smiled and said, "Just go home and feel at ease, and wait for me to return to Beijing."
Pang Xiao was dressed in black, his face was as white as jade, his eyes were like lacquer, and he was as handsome as a mortal in the morning light.
Qin Yining lifted the curtains, tilted his head and smiled at him, "I see. You can rest assured."
Pang Xiao looked at Qin Yining deeply, with love and pity in his eyes, reluctance to part, but more helplessness.
He touched Qin Yining's cool cheek with his big hand, and Pang Xiao instructed Ji Yun in the carriage: "You guys are waiting for the princess, the weather is getting colder, the more you go to the north, the colder it gets. on."
"Yes, my lord, don't worry." Ji Yun and Bingtang responded with a smile. Yingshengyanyu's voice is very nice.
After Pang Xiao's instructions, there was no more reason to stay, so he rode his horse to say goodbye to Chief Cheng, and then led a dozen of his men to ride the horse and whip, along the official road to the Pingnan Army Camp. The direction galloped away.
Qin Yining sat upright in the carriage, feeling lost.
As soon as we separated, she had already started to miss it.
The journey back to Beijing was very smooth. Qin Yining was accompanied by a silver-faced spy, a servant girl who served him personally, and six Jinghu guards arranged by Pang Xiao around the carriage. Safety was guaranteed. All were beaten and fled.
Manager Cheng received the benefits given by Pang Xiao, and was very polite to Qin Yining. Qin Yining was not a domineering person, and was also very polite to Manager Cheng. After going back and forth, the two became familiar with each other along the way, and maintained a mutual respect for each other.
However, because of the will of the Sage, they did not dare to delay on the road, and they still wanted to rush to the capital in a hurry.
Although Qin Yining said that she wanted to be an ambassador to welcome relatives, she was not a down-to-earth lady after all. Her rules were still learned from the old nanny who retired from the palace of the Yan Dynasty during the Dayan Dynasty.
The rules and etiquette of the Yan Dynasty were different from those of Da Zhou.
And the etiquette that Da Zhou followed was also learned from the Northern Hebei, and it was not really following the ancient etiquette.
After all, the Great Zhou Dynasty was only six years old, including the queen, the empress dowager, and the eldest princess. At most, they were considered to be "landlord wife" origins. Compared with the rules of the ladies and the royal family's family members, they were simply unsightly.
After defeating the Tatars this time, Da Zhou wanted to show his national prestige, and he also wanted to show the ancient rituals and demeanor of Da Zhou to foreigners. Naturally, there would be no ambiguity.
Director Cheng said with a smile: "...So after the princess returns to Beijing, she should learn ancient rituals first while waiting for Princess Tana."
Qin Yining nodded, "That's right. The Tartars are entrenched in the north, and they have been detained every year since the Northern Hebei era, and the people have suffered greatly. Now our Dazhou army is like a broken bamboo, and finally we have defeated the Tartars and brought peace to the people. , We can't do anything in the face of the culprit who has surrendered, but it is also essential to show them the etiquette of our big week, which is also a way to show the prestige of the country."
"Yes, what the princess said is very true." Director Cheng nodded again and again, admiring Qin Yining in his heart. His ideological bearing was indeed the person who was loyal to the prince's pillow, and he spoke without leaking.
"Princess is really a wise person, and the sage's eyes are like torches, and the slaves really admire it."
In a word, both Qin Yining and Li Qitian were flattered.
Qin Yining and Director Cheng traveled together, and also understood this person's character.
An inner prisoner who can sit in his position will definitely not be someone who acts impulsive. He is the most tactful in his work, and he will not offend anyone.
Qin Yining sometimes can't help but think, maybe she should also learn from the manager Cheng Haosheng to learn how to behave.
Because sometimes she feels that since she married Pang Xiao, she has something to rely on, as if she doesn't know how to do things smoothly, and her temper has become more impatient.
This is not good, it is easy to cause trouble.
The distance back to Beijing is long, and the closer to the capital, the colder the weather will be. The thick sweater that Qin Yining brought when he left the capital comes in handy, and he often holds an exquisite hand warmer in his hand. Always feel cold.
"Princess is suffering from a loss after giving birth, so you will be afraid of the cold. After we return to Beijing to stabilize, I still have to take care of the princess. Don't think that you are fine, just don't care, and don't think that you are only now. How old are you…”
Bingtang placed a delicate stove at Qin Yining's feet while chatting.
Qin Yining chuckled and said, "Bingtang hurts people so much, I can't bear to give you to Huzi for that wood lump."
"Oh, what's wrong with the princess? People care about you well, but you turned around and made fun of them." Bingtang blushed like a boiled shrimp, and lowered her head to avoid looking into Qin Yining's eyes.
Jiyun, Xianyun, Qiulu, and Lian Xiaozhu, who were on the side, couldn't help but laugh.
Everyone joked about rock candy.
Qin Yining gently pinched Ji Yun and Xian Yun's cheeks, and said with a smile: "Don't just make fun of Bingtang, you are not too young, I will pay attention to it when I go back, I will definitely find a good family for you, no I ask you to cast the pearl in the dark."
"Isn't the princess crazy, why do you think that you are going to mess up the mandarin ducks today?" Xianyun's face was redder than rock candy, and said angrily: "We're gone, who will serve you?"
Qiu Lu also said: "I will not leave the princess's side."
Qin Yining said with a smile: "Fool, you can all come back to me to be a steward in the future. How can you not marry for the rest of your life? Find a reliable husband who will be harmonious and beautiful in the future, just like me and the prince. Wouldn't it be good to support each other? Besides, the prince and I can both be your backers, so I don't believe that there is anyone who is blind and dares to neglect you in the future."
Several people were blushing at Qin Yining's words, but they were very moved. They all knew that Qin Yining was really planning for their happiness.
As time goes by, the closer you get to the capital, the closer you get to the harsh winter. The snow this year was particularly heavy. Although they were ordered to return to Beijing, they were very nervous in their journey, but they were still delayed by the heavy snow.
As a result, when the team returning to Beijing arrived in Daxing Town, which was still half a day away from the capital, it was already the afternoon of the third day of November.
Director Cheng, wearing thick clothes with a big fur collar, clasped his hands in the snow, walked to Qin Yining's carriage, and said with a smile, "Princess."
Hearing the movement, Qin Yining hurriedly opened the car window and said with a smile, "Mr. Cheng."
"Princess, we have now arrived in Daxing Town. We will stay here for one night today. After a little rectification, we can go straight to the city tomorrow."
"It's still Director Cheng's thoughtful thinking, just follow your words." Qin Yining nodded.
"Yes." Director Cheng cupped his hands and instructed the team to go to Daxing Town.
The town is not very big, with a main street, you can see the end at a glance. The only inn in the town does not have any independent courtyard, only the second floor has a single room.
A group of people arranged to stay, and the accompanying guards wanted to go down to live in the Tongpu. But thinking about being able to enter the city tomorrow, the arduous journey is finally over, and everyone is in a good mood.
After Qin Yining took a bath, she prepared the clothes she was going to wear tomorrow, and sat in front of the lamp with her long half-dry hair to do needlework.
Several of the maids were already very tired, so Qin Yining sent them to rest quickly, "I have to get up early tomorrow, there are still a lot of things to do after entering the city, so I have to keep my spirits up."
Bingtang and the others were so tired that they couldn't open their eyes, and they didn't refuse when they heard the words.
Qin Yining sewed the outer robe in her hands stitch by stitch. This is the spring clothes she made for Pang Xiao, and she planned to let him wear it in the new year. She is not good at embroidering too complicated patterns. She plans to let the embroidery mother do it in the future, so she will only make ready-made clothes. Anyway, Pang Xiao wouldn't dislike her stitches being too thick, just be careful not to drop the needles into the clothes and pierce him.
Only when she sews clothes for him under the lamp every day can she let her thoughts break. She doesn't want to reveal her emotions in front of people, especially when she is surrounded by so many people, she can't let her own feelings break. Negative emotions affect others.
I don't know what happened to the old capital.
She followed Manager Cheng and had to be cautious in contacting Pang Xiao, for fear of falling behind, and fearing that the people around Manager Cheng might have eyeliners, so she specially passed the news to Li Qitian.
Qin Yining sighed softly, blinked his sour eyes, and tidied up his needlework slowly, planning to go to bed.
At this moment, a slight voice suddenly came from the back window: "Princess."
It is Jingzhe.
Qin Yining hurriedly grabbed a piece of clothing, walked to the window with a layer of clear paper, and whispered, "What's wrong?"
"Uncle Zhongyi wants to see you."
Lu Heng
Qin Yining thought for a while and said in a low voice, "Where are the others?"
"Just downstairs."
Qin Yining thought for a while, the room she lived in was separated from the room where Mr. Cheng lived. The floor of the inn was in disrepair for a long time, and it would squeak when you stepped on it. If people came in through the main door, they would definitely be found.
But after learning about the secrets between the Qiu family and the Lu family about the hidden family and the prominent family, Qin Yining really wanted to meet Lu Heng and find out what he said.
I just don't know if Lu Heng has a tail behind him when he comes this time.
Qin Yining fell into deep thought, and Jing Zhe outside the window did not rush him. He waited patiently. His figure squatting on the edge of the window with one hand on the window frame was reflected on the window paper, as if it had turned into a stone statue.
After a while, Qin Yining made a decision.
"Think of a way not to disturb others, please come up with Uncle Zhongyi."
"Yes." Jing Zhe responded, and the figure immediately disappeared in front of the window.
