Return of the Swallow

Qin Yining pursed his lips and shook his head: "It's not appropriate for me to go at this time. It must be the clan and the royal family who are gathered in Prince Ning's mansion. If I want to express my condolences, I can only go back to the mansion and listen to my father's arrangements."

Ji Yun nodded.

Although she is from Da Zhou, she still respects heroic heroes. Seeing Qin Yining wiping her tears silently, thinking that King Ning was injured by Pang Xiao after all, she became nervous again, and she hesitated.

Seeing Ji Yun like this, Qin Yining sighed: "However, a war is a war, as long as there is a war, there will be casualties. Pang Zhixi and King Ning have been on opposite sides from the beginning. I have long imagined that there will be such a day. It is not King Ning who will die. Pang Zhixi, this time, Pang Zhixi is superior, if he..."

Qin Yining raised his head and took a breath, "I'm still selfish after all."

"Girl, don't think so much." Qiu Lu persuaded softly from the side, "You're just a little girl, these big things are not under your control. It's a man's business, let the man's family handle it."

Qin Yining smiled bitterly and said, "Apart from this, what else can I do?"

The three master and servant packed up a simple salute and left the other courtyard. The four Jinghu guards arranged by Pang Xiao and Mu Jinghu had already prepared their horses outside. The side door, took a small road and drove to the Qin mansion.

After going out for more than ten days, the Hou Mansion seems to be no different, except that craftsmen are working on the burned courtyards of the back house.

As soon as Qin Yining's carriage arrived at the gate of the mansion, he immediately rushed to the inner house to spread the word.

On the way back, Ji Yun had already whispered to her that the four guards were not boxers, but Jinghu guards beside Pang Xiao, who were specially arranged to protect her, which made Qin Yining feel very happy for a while, but thinking of two things. The country was at war, and King Ning passed away, and she turned to despise herself for a while.

But in the end, life still has to go on, and she still has to plan for her own happiness.

When he got off the bus, Qin Yining had already sorted out his mood. He turned around and smiled at the three of them: "If you don't mind, why don't you go back to the house with me, and I'll arrange accommodation for a few of you, okay?"

The one headed by the four people cupped their hands and whispered: "If you go back to the girl, I will not follow you into the palace. It's cheaper to be more comfortable outside."

Qin Yining said with understanding: "I understand, then you can go to Tayun Inn for a while, and I will tell shopkeeper Zhong Da that during this period of time, you can go to shopkeeper Zhong Da for your food, accommodation and money. already."

The four heard the words,

I like this beautiful future princess even more, and my attitude is more respectful.

"My subordinates thank you, Princess."

Qin Yining's face flushed red when she heard the words, and she forced herself to calmly say, "Go ahead."

"Yes."

The four of them saluted and left with their horses.

Seeing Qin Yining's flushed cheeks and neck, Mu Jinghu couldn't help but wonder, "It's weird, they didn't call you wrong, why are you blushing?"

Qin Yining had long known that Mu Jinghu's temperament was dull, dull and upright, but after hearing him say this, he couldn't help but feel ashamed and went into the mansion without returning to him.

Mu Jinghu blinked incomprehensibly, and after entering the mansion, he went to his own room in the outer courtyard.

At this time, the Sun family had already brought Mama Jin, Miss Eight, and Qin Huining out to welcome them.

"My son!" Seeing Qin Yining, Sun's brows were beaming with joy, and she rushed over and hugged Qin Yining, "You are finally back! Don't you have to leave this time?"

"Mother." Qin Yining put her cheek on Sun's shoulder and rubbed her neck, "The emperor allowed me to come home and become a lay Buddhist. Mother, have you been embarrassed these days?"

The Sun family has been at odds with the old lady a lot these days, although everyone seems to have united a lot after the Qin family suffered a great disaster. But once the days were peaceful and time covered up the sadness, the old lady was just as unpleasant to see the Sun family as before.

In addition, the old lady supported Qin Yining's move to be the emperor's outer chamber, which made Sun even less hopeful about the old lady's character. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have almost met each other in the past few days. Shi's oppression became more and more ruthless, and every day she asked Sun's to go to her side to make rules.

When her daughter was not at home, Mrs. Sun endured a lot, holding a sigh of relief in her heart, thinking that she must not be looked down upon by others.

But when her daughter came back, and she spoke so considerately, Sun's tears almost fell.

"It's not embarrassing, it's not embarrassing, it's a blessing for our family to be safe, where can there be any embarrassment?"

Qin Yining didn't have to think about it to guess Sun's situation when she was not at home, so she coquettishly rubbed into Sun's arms.

The eighth young lady on the side looked at them with a smile. Although she missed her late mother and aunt, she envied Qin Yining and her mother who could act like a spoiled child, but she was also full of blessings.

Qin Huining had a blank expression.

In the past, this embrace belonged to her, and this mother also belonged to her. As of now, she has nothing. Qin Yining has everything.

When entering the door just now, Qin Yining didn't even look at her.

Now Qin Yining is famous all over the world, and she is not in the same world as her, and he doesn't even have the qualification to regard Qin Yining as an opponent.

Because, to be an opponent, you must at least stand on an equal footing.

Is it possible for her to have the same status as Qin Yining?

The matter of Miss Six has made her walk on thin ice in the house. It is true that she pushed Miss Six to block the knife when she was in danger, but at that time, she didn't believe that someone else was in her perspective and environment, and she would not think about herself too much!

These people were lucky enough to save their lives, and they didn't know how much they were secretly happy, but they came to blame her!

When Qin Huining's heart turned a thousand times, Qin Yining was already holding Sun's arm and talking with Miss Eight to Cixiao Garden.

Qin Huining was left on the spot and ignored, so she could only bite her lower lip and follow.

"Granddaughter greets the old lady."

Qin Yining saw the old lady and knelt down obediently.

The old lady looked at her with a smile, "Get up quickly. Come back, come back."

"The granddaughter is not at home these days. The old lady and the second aunt are too tired at home." Qin Yining stood up and greeted the second lady again.

The second lady has always liked Qin Yining's steadiness and knowledge, and now the most promising daughter of the Qin family is Qin Yining, so the second lady took Qin Yining's hand and greeted him warmly.

The family spent a while in the Cixiao Garden, and the old lady ordered to prepare lunch.

The third master, Qin Han and Qin Yu came back from dinner and were very happy to see Qin Yining. When asked why the emperor suddenly allowed her to come home, Qin Yining did not elaborate on the conflict between her and the queen, for fear of causing panic among the female family members at home, and only said that it was the emperor's order.

%

King Ning's funeral was a sensation in the capital, Qin Yining also went to offer condolences with the family's female relatives and comforted the princess.

It's just that people die like lights go out, and no matter how tough people are, they will eventually leave one day. The return of heroes is inevitable.

After King Ning was buried in the coffin, the imperial court auctioned off official positions and allowed merchants to come and trade at the expense of grain.

Seeing that the city's granary began to transport grains one by one, the price of rice in the grain store also began to slow down, gradually tending to a slightly more expensive range that could be accepted by the people. Kyoto was enveloped by the sadness of King Ning's death , and finally cheered up.

After all, ordinary people still care about whether they can eat more. As for the rest, how can Shengdou Xiaomin manage?

After a month of recuperation, Qin Yining's shoulder injury finally recovered. Bingtang gave her a prescription for nourishing qi and blood, which also made her look better. She was no longer as innocent as before, and she was no longer dizzy .

That evening, Qin Yining left the rock candy in the room for the night. The two of them were shaking their fans outside and talking in a low voice. Suddenly, they heard a slight creaking sound when a window was pushed open in the inner room.

Bingtang said: "The wind is strong tonight, and Xu blew open the window of the clean room again. I'll tie it up."

"No, I just happened to be going to the clean room." Qin Yining put down his shoes and smiled, "You spread the mat, it's getting late, we should go to bed."

"Okay." Bingtang laid her bedding on the outside Luohan bed.

Qin Yining wore a small jacket and walked to the clean room with a silk lamp.

Who would have guessed that as soon as the door curtain was lifted, a dark shadow in the house was suddenly approaching.

She was shocked, and the voice of exclamation was about to blurt out when she was hugged into his arms by the man, a big hand covered her mouth, the familiar and unfamiliar smell, with some grass, gunpowder and bloody smell , domineering occupied her senses.

Qin Yining's body couldn't help shaking.

It's him!

The hot lips fell on her neck, and Pang Xiao's low voice was in his ear, "Sister Yi, I'll come and see you."

Qin Yining's heart was like a deer, and the silk lamp in his hand was almost unable to hold, but Pang Xiao quickly caught the lamp and blew it out.

The lights are bright, and it is easy to see the shadows of the window lattice outside.

If they want to be safe, they can only touch the dark.

"Are you crazy? The city is so tense at this time, why did you come into the city? You are not afraid of being caught by them!" Qin Yining said anxiously.

Pang Xiao chuckled softly, pressing his lips against her earlobe, and also replied with a breathy voice, "I'll go crazy if you don't come again. Let me see if your injury is healed."

As he said that, he was going to check Qin Yining's shoulder.

Qin Yining blushed with shame, and hurriedly grabbed the placket and said in a low voice, "It's all good, it's all good, don't do this."

Bingtang heard the movement outside and asked strangely, "Girl, what's the matter with you?"

Come in with the light on.

Qin Yining hurriedly said, "I'm fine."

He hesitated to look at Pang Xiao, wondering what his arrangement was.

Pang Xiao laughed, took Qin Yining's hand and walked outside, whispering, "It's me."

Bingtang widened her eyes in astonishment, "Wang, lord? Why are you here!"

And Qin Yining finally saw the appearance of Pang Xiao through the light that the ice candy hand had not yet had time to blow out.
