Qin Huaiyuan ordered people 800 miles to send the news to the old capital urgently, almost with Mu Jinghu and Qiu Feishan.
Mu Jinghu and Qiu Feishan travel more by water, and because Qiu Feishan has abundant financial resources, the carriages they ride are stable and fast. If it wasn't for her pregnancy delay, I'm afraid it would be faster to come to Jiudu.
The two did not go directly to the Pingnan army camp to find Pang Xiao, but changed their disguise and avoided people to go to the Qin Mansion, through the back corner door specially used for food delivery.
"Shanshan, why is it so troublesome? I can take you over the wall easily, and I promise not to let you lose a single hair." Mu Jinghu put his arms around Qiu Feishan and left the guards in the Qin Mansion along the way. Under the guidance of Wei, he walked towards the inner house.
Qiu Feishan smiled, "It's safer this way. Although Qin Mansion has no master at home now, he still keeps the servants in the house, and the servants also have to eat, so it's less suspicious, even if someone asks. , Wang Ye and the servants of the Qin family are also hesitant. But if they climb over the wall, one in and one out, once they are seen, there will be more troubles in the future."
"Yes, you said so."
Mu Jinghu supported Qiu Feishan carefully for too long, and went all the way along the hand porch, with a gentle tone, holding Qiu Feishan with both hands like a hen protecting a chick, for fear that she would bump into her.
Qiu Feishan couldn't help laughing again.
Mu Jinghu and Qiu Feishan didn't wait long before Pang Xiao returned from the military camp.
He only brought the tiger son, and the two of them rushed into the corner door generously.
All the way to the flower hall, Pang Xiao saw Mu Jinghu and Qiu Feishan, and naturally had a good relationship.
Qiu Feishan had already written a letter with Pang Xiao before she came, so Pang Xiao knew about the marriage of Mu Jinghu and Qiu Feishan, but after meeting, she had to make some jokes.
For a moment, Qiu Feishan cut to the chase and said, "I received a tip on the way that the Tartars and Qiu Yuanming's people colluded."
Pang Xiao did not immediately express his position, but just smiled and said, "Oh?"
Qiu Feishan said: "Qiu Yuanming has already selected Yuchiyan, so, whether it is you, Ji Lan, or today, all of them are Yuchiyan's opponents, and they all become Qiuyuan. Someone to deal with.
"Qiu Yuanming is a little clever. Let's work with Tartar to destroy you first, and then work together to kill Ji Lan."
Pang Xiao smiled again, not knowing that someone was going to kill him.
"Isn't Wang Ye afraid?" Qiu Feishan asked with a smile.
"What are you afraid of? Are there still few things I've encountered? On the battlefield, if there is one time when you back down because of fear, the enemy's knife has already cut off my head. Someone wants my life, this is a common occurrence."
With a slight pause in his tone, Pang Xiao's expression turned slightly cold: "It's just that I didn't expect this to happen this time. Qiu Yuanming thought very well, and some people designed it very well."
When Pang Xiao said "some people", Qiu Feishan and Mu Jinghu felt like mirrors in their hearts.
Pang Xiao took out the letter that Qin Huaiyuan had ordered from his sleeve, and handed it directly to Mu Jinghu with a heavy expression.
Mu Jinghu unfolded the letter paper and looked at it together with Qiu Feishan.
"What does this Tatar princess want to do? Is it to avenge the Anari Khan?"
Qiu Feishan shook her head thoughtfully: "In my opinion, it won't be so simple. Jinshang is not a person who will dote on a woman for her pleasure. It's not so much that Jinshang promised Princess Tana. It is better to say that he himself has an idea in this regard.”
Pang Xiao's voice was heavy: "You're right."
Mu Jinghu scratched his hair. He is really not good at these things that ponder people's hearts.
Pang Xiao lowered his eyes and still had a smile on his face, but his eyes were icy cold, his slender fingers clenched into fists, his joints were white, but he could only hold a handful of air.
He is not as calm as Li Qitian.
Li Qitian is not the kind of person who will spoil a woman for her pleasure, but he is.
No matter what, as long as it goes against Qin Yining's wishes, as long as it threatens Qin Yining's safety, he will definitely take Qin Yining's feelings as the first consideration.
He can be calm in front of the two armies. Even if he had encountered an enemy army ten times his own strength, he had never been afraid.
But just a short letter, a news from afar, has already made his heart a mess, and his fingertips are cold.
Pang Xiao knew that he was afraid.
He even wished that he could go back to Beijing immediately and rob Qin Yining from the public, so that no one would have the chance to hurt her.
But he can't go!
Not to mention that he left, that is, he left his post without permission, that is, he handed over the military power of the Pingnan Army to others, even if he brought Jinghuwei back, so what? Under the loneliness, Li Qitian could only let Li Qitian seize this handle and take the opportunity to cure his crime.
At that time, wouldn't he be even less able to protect Sister Yi
Pang Xiao's eyes were dark, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was still there, but the anxiety and fragility he showed when he lowered his eyes still made Mu Jinghu and Qiu Feishan feel sympathy.
"Fox, don't worry, your daughter-in-law is very smart like you, and she will be fine in the palace. If someone wants to plot against her, it is better to weigh yourself first. Even my teacher Bodu said that she can count everything in the world, but the Qin family is a variable, and she can't count her business. You see, my uncle said this, doesn't it mean that your daughter-in-law is amazing? "
Pang Xiao smiled, and his voice was slightly hoarse when he spoke: "I know, but no matter how powerful she is, she is still a weak woman. In a place like the palace, if there is a fight between women, I believe she will not suffer, but if someone forces intervene..."
"You also know that my father-in-law is extremely smart. He and Huanhai have been up and down for a long time. He is the most calm person. If he didn't think something was wrong, he wouldn't have rushed to send the letter at the risk of being discovered."
Qiu Feishan lowered her eyes and bit her lower lip, and said for a moment, "It's no use worrying, my lord. You should think about how to deal with it."
"yes."
Pang Xiao leaned against the back of the chair, and for the first time bent down his back like a flag. His sitting posture was casual, but he was also exhausted. He rested the back of his head on the top of the chair back, his skull was smashed, and he looked at Chengchen above his head in a trance.
Mu Jinghu and Qiu Feishan also did not speak for the time being, leaving room for Pang Xiao to think.
After a while, Pang Xiao still maintained that sitting position, his voice squeezed out of his throat, "He wants to kill her."
Mu Jinghu opened his eyes wide and stared blankly at Pang Xiao.
Qiu Feishan hung her long eyelashes and did not open her mouth. Apparently already thought of it. Just because he was sure that Pang Xiao could figure it out himself, he didn't open his mouth because he was only concerned about it before.
Pang Xiao narrowed his eyes and said, "Kill her and test my actions. If I have a change, just get rid of me. If I don't change, it will also be a blow to me."
Pang Xiao suddenly jumped up, stood on the spot, clenched his teeth, the back molars were too hard, and the outline of the mandible was tight.
Qiu Feishan sat beside Mu Jinghu and looked up at Pang Xiao, "What is the prince going to do?"
Pang Xiao seemed to have made up his mind, turned around and said, "Please come Mr. Xu."
Huzi nodded immediately, and Sayazi ran out to find someone.
After a while, Xu Weizhi came quickly and bowed his hands in front of the door: "Your Highness."
Pang Xiao said: "No need to be too polite, now there is something I need to ask Mr.
Xu Weizhi knew Pang Xiao, and even if everyone felt that they would lose in the war, Pang Xiao would still smile easily and keep his head calm. But now, Pang Xiao's face was extremely ugly, as if all the muscles and bones in his body were tense, and even became a little stiff.
Something must have happened!
"My lord, please tell me, the old man must go through fire and water, and he will not refuse."
"Okay. I can't go away. This matter must be done by Mr. Master. You will immediately set off to Nanyan to see Yuchi Xujie. I will arrange for someone to follow him to protect him and write a good greeting."
Xu Weizhi asked, "Looking for Yuchi Xujie? What to talk about?"
"You tell Yuchi Xujie that you have broken your trust in him today. You have already recognized Nanyan's independence, but you have made Yuchi Xujie a king. The reason why such a renegade thing happened must be because today you want to take advantage of Yuchi Yan. The orthodox identity to annex Nanyan."
Xu Weizhi frowned and said, "Your Highness, do this..."
"You don't have to persuade me, Mr. Xu, this time it's all up to you. I believe that when you talk to Yuchi Xujie like this, Yuchi Xujie, the little guy who only talks behind his back, will definitely be afraid.
"As long as he shows signs of moving, tell him that I will expel Yuchi Yan to Nanyan. As long as Yuchi Xujie can kill Yuchi Yan, then Dayan's orthodoxy will be his Yuchi Xujie."
"But my lord, Yuchi Xujie is a person who pays special attention to reputation and orthodoxy. He could get rid of Yuchi Yan several times at the beginning, but for his own good reputation and for the orthodox status of the well-known Dayan, he I have never done anything, and even as the monarch of a country, when I see Yuchiyan again, I will still perform the ritual of the monarch and minister. Your arrangement, I am afraid it will not work."
Pang Xiao raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Mr. Xu thinks I really want Yuchi Xujie to kill Yuchi Yan?"
Xu Weizhi lowered his head and pondered upon hearing the words, but he had already figured it out in his breath.
"What does your lord mean?"
"What I want is not Yuchi Yan's life. It is Yuchi Xujie's life. I want Nan Yan."
Pang Xiao turned around and sat back upright in his original position, his eyes were full of light, and he did not hide his determination.
"This time, Yuchi Xujie will pretend to promise, and then protect Yuchi Yan for the ridiculous orthodoxy and reputation. But you think, what kind of temperament is Yuchi Yan? Cowardly, suspicious, all the things she has experienced in the past, Turn him into a startled bird.
"The secret order is today, asking me to deal with Yuchi Yan, I only need to act according to the order, dispatch troops to 'suppress the bandits', expel Yuchi Yan from the old capital, only take him to Nanyan, I don't need to kill him, this way His ups and downs can wipe out the little remaining humanity in him.
"He is the king of the subjugated country, and he is naturally more obsessed with the throne than other emperors. Will Yuchi Yan believe Yuchi Xujie's protection?"
