Return of the Swallow

Chapter 203 Greed for ink

When Qin Yining returned to the Hou Mansion, the door of the house was not as tightly closed as usual. The front door was half open.

And beside him were two men dressed as Cao family guards serving, guarding the door with a cold face on the left and right, as if it was not the Qin family, but his Cao family.

Qin Yining's heart skipped a beat, but she felt that something was wrong, her brows furrowed tightly.

What's wrong with the Cao family?

The shopkeeper Zhong Da also saw that the situation of the Qin family was unusual, and hurriedly instructed the driver: "Keep going, don't stop yet."

Yufu is the confidant of Zhong Da's shopkeeper, and he knows a little about the disputes between the Qin family and the Cao family. I stopped when I found a quiet place.

"Master, there may be something in the house. Don't rush to go back first, let the people around you go in to see the situation."

Ji Yun said: "Girl, don't worry, just wait here, I'll go back quietly and have a look, without disturbing anyone, I'll give you news later."

"You have to be careful." Qin Yining took Ji Yun's hand worriedly, "It is important to take care of your own safety. I don't know what's going on in the house now. If you think there are too many people on the other side, or the situation is not right, don't take the risk. There is always another way."

Ji Yun nodded slightly moved. Qin Yining will never disregard the lives of those around him in order to achieve his own goals. If it was said that she only had Pang Xiao as a master in her heart, and only admired Qin Yining, but now she has been regarded as a mistress.

"Don't worry, girl, my light weight is good. I don't confront people head-on, so it should be easy to get news. I'll go back when I go."

Ji Yun reassured Qin Yining with a smile, then jumped out of the carriage and headed for the Hou residence.

At this time, the sky had completely dimmed, the alley was silent, and the shopkeeper Zhong Da did not allow the driver to light the lights. It was dark in the carriage, Bingtang comfortably grabbed Qin Yining's hand and whispered, "Miss, don't worry, it's alright."

"Well. It's okay, let's wait and see."

Having said that, Qin Yining's tone was calm, but she was in a state of uncertainty at this time.

In the short period of time just now, she has already conceived many possibilities in her heart. After her father was reprimanded by the emperor and ordered to think about it, she has been locked out of the house, refusing to communicate with all guests, and only reading and fishing on her own, as if No longer an official of the Dayan Dynasty.

Although Qin Huaiyuan didn't say it, Qin Yining, who was always by Qin Huaiyuan's side, knew that no one could comprehend the depression and anguish in Qin Huaiyuan's heart.

He is full of talents and strategies, but the bright pearl is secretly invested. She knew that Qin Huaiyuan was often torn between loyalty and ambition.

If he only dedicated to the prosperity of the whole family, promotion and fortune, he would have 10,000 ways to stabilize his position.

But Qin Huaiyuan's ambition is that the world will be peaceful, the people will live in peace, and the ability of a faint king will never allow Qin Huaiyuan to display his ambition. The monarch will only use his officials as his tools to stabilize his rule, and then do whatever he wants with a shy face, exploiting his people in the name of the monarch. Just enjoy it, and be foolish and immoral.

Just as it is now, in order to stay safe and secure his own face, Jun Jun actually left the army of 350,000 outside the city alone, hesitating about who would be in charge of the commander-in-chief. Not a good person, go and contact the Tatars to help.

The Tartars have a high mountain and a long road, and when the cavalry crosses the mountains and reaches Dazhou, not to mention whether Dazhou will be attacked by the enemy, if they want to come to Dayanchao, they will be captured by Pang Zhixi.

This is called Qin Yining, a boudoir woman who finds it extremely ridiculous and hateful.

What's more, Qin Huaiyuan?

She believed that her father must have spoken to the emperor about everything she could figure out.

But the result now is that Qin Huaiyuan was ordered to think about it.

Qin Yining knew that Qin Huaiyuan no longer had any expectations for Jun Jun, and it could even be said that his heart was ashes.

A loyal minister who has no heart to fight anymore, just wants to fish quietly at home, read books, and wait for the coexistence and death of the country, even loses his official position, and has no real power in his hands, how can he get in the way of the Cao family? ?

Qin Yining's thoughts turned around, Bei Te couldn't help biting his lower lip, and Fang Fang slowly let out a sigh of relief after a long while.

"Sure enough, people are good at being deceived by others. My father's mind is so obvious, but the enemy will not believe it, let alone understand it. If there is a way, you must make yourself stronger, so that you will have the capital of toughness, otherwise you will only be able to be stepped on in the face."

"The owner said yes." The boss, Zhong Da, nodded knowingly, and sighed, "Don't worry too much about the owner. After all, the Marquis's reputation is still there, and the Cao family won't do anything about it."

Qin Yining could only comfort herself for the time being.

But in the end, he was still very flustered, and his palms were sweating in the hot weather.

After a while, Jiyun came back.

"Girl, I sneaked into the mansion quietly, and found that Cao Guozhang led someone to talk to the Hou Ye and the second master in the study of the outer courtyard, but there was nothing in the inner house, but the old lady was scared, the eldest lady, the second lady They were all waiting by the side, and the courtyard of the study in the outer courtyard was surrounded by people. I didn't dare to disturb these people, and I didn't dare to approach and listen carefully, so I hurriedly came to tell the girl. It’s a hindrance, perhaps Cao Guozhang wants to find Hou Ye for something.”

Qin Yining breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

As long as Cao Guozhang didn't take someone to raid his home, it would be fine. If Cao Guozhang really had the guts to do that, it would mean that the emperor was going to attack their family.

"Master, what are you doing now?"

Qin Yining said: "I'm going back to the mansion now. If anyone asks, say I'm going to Ningyuan to visit a few sick refugees. You can bring this matter to me and arrange it. Don't expose the whereabouts of Pang Zhixi today."

"Yes, don't worry, boss."

Qin Yining instructed shopkeeper Zhong Da, and took Jiyun and Bingtang back to the house by car.

The Cao family guards in front of the mansion just looked at Qin Yining a few more times, but did not stop him.

Qin Yining followed his usual habit and went straight through the Yimen Gate to go to the Second Gate.

Unexpectedly, after turning a corner, I heard footsteps coming from behind, and a low and loud voice said coldly: "...In the end, the affairs of the household were once handled by you, although the years are long, but If you have the ability to be greedy for ink, can you be sure that no one knows about it? Qin Meng, don’t think that what you have done is not leaking. Since the old man can ask you about it, that means you know that you have led your second brother to do the greed of ink. This is a good thing! You will have good memories of these days! The emperor treats you well in the end, don't make a mistake, make mistakes again and again!"
