Return of the Swallow

Chapter 159

Guozhang Cao looked around and determined that the gate of the palace was closed tightly and no outsiders were spying on him. Then he whispered, “Have you ever heard of a fire in Beijuxianfang?”

The queen shook her head blankly.

With her temperament and position, if she didn't deliberately spy or someone else deliberately told her, how could an ordinary fire in the outside world reach her ears?

Cao Guozhang simply said: "Last night, the house where we housed those people lost water. People from the Water Dragon Bureau went to fight for the rescue, but the water sprayed from the waterwheel turned into oil, and the fire grew stronger. When the people from the Secretary and the Water Dragon Bureau were eager to fight the fire, the people living in the house ran out of the house, and they were all missing."

"Missing?" The queen's slightly hoarse, soft voice was full of incredulity, "This is clearly designed by someone! Who has targeted our Cao family!"

Cao Guozhang nodded and said: "Princess Tatar was furious, so the minister urgently investigated and interrogated all those who might have come into contact with the house. Finally, he got some clues from Xu Maona. A few days ago, the fourth young lady of the Qin family passed by and said that she had lost a gold-inlaid jade bracelet and was picked up by the people in the house. Xu Mao led someone to help with the search, but Xu Mao strictly refused. Miss Qin Si, there is no one else."

"The wild hoof of the Qin family?" The queen narrowed her eyes. "That wild hoof is not simple, and she looks like a fox, turning a Zhou savage into a dizzy mind, and even gave her the huge painted spring garden. Ben. Gong has seen it carefully, that wild hoof looks very similar to Qin Meng, maybe there are as many ghost ideas in his mind as Qin Meng."

Speaking of this, the queen condensed her eyebrows and said: "Father, Qin Meng is not a good master. My palace has been around the emperor for so long, and I haven't found any useful information about Qin Meng from the emperor, but my sister is not that good. Use it, I think about those love affairs all day long, and I can't find out anything!"

Seeing that the Queen's topic was all distorted, Cao Guozhang said: "It's good for your sister to treat Qin Meng with only one heart. Qin Meng is now my virtuous son-in-law, and grasping the relationship is a great help."

"Then his daughter is still passing by the house stall on the suspicion?" The queen paused a bit, and then reflected: "Father suspected that she was in contact with the Dazhou people? Is Prince Zhongshun going to show us together?"

"It is possible, but it does not rule out that she was instigated by Qin Meng."

The queen sneered: "I don't care about the rest, but if this wild hoof dares to be disrespectful to my palace, my palace will settle accounts with her. Whether she helps her father or her lover, the palace does not matter. I want her to die again! That day, she dared to despise my palace, and actually stood aside watching my jokes! My palace hasn't suffered this kind of frustration for so many years, will she lose a little girl movie? Don't worry, father, Qin Yining's life is left to the palace!"

Guozhang Cao didn't say much when he saw the queen like this, he just smiled.

After Cao Guozhang resigned, the queen acted like a baby in front of the emperor that night, saying that she always had nightmares these few days. Because she was worried about the health of her husband and his family, she wanted to go to the goddess to watch the pilgrims, pray for the family, and she shed tears. .

When the emperor saw her crying pear flower with rain, he couldn't help but feel distressed: "Be careful, don't cry, my heart is broken when you cry, and I will give you whatever you want."

The emperor shook his arms around the empress’ waist and groaned for a moment. He said, “It’s not a big deal to go to the pilgrimage. Prince Zhongshun will return to Beijing soon, leaving their envoys to continue the compensation transfer. Prince Zhongshun As soon as I leave, it means that there is no hard bones, and the handover will be easier to handle. Then I will be free and I will accompany you, okay?"

The empress pursed her red lips, and tears were about to fall again: "The concubine is overjoyed. It's just that the concubine is flustered for the past two days and always sleeps well. You can see that the concubine has wrinkles around his eyes. If you are worried about your concubine, you can arrange for someone to escort your concubine, and the concubine will go to Doumu Yuanjun’s idol and kowtow a few heads in order to feel at ease."

Greasy fingers crossed the emperor's clothes, and then gradually dipped it down, "When the emperor is free, the concubines will accompany the emperor to go again, okay."

The emperor was so coquettish by her, and adding a jade hand to keep making chaos, his heart was softened, he immediately threw his helmet and armor, and the queen would not agree to anything.

The next day, under the escort of the escort arranged by the emperor, the queen slightly obeyed Jian and went to Xiangu Guan and met Liu Xiangu.

At the same time, Qin Yining was nestling on the soft couch of Shuoren Zhaihua Hall, holding the soft and furry Erbai in one hand and teasing, while holding a book of account books in the other, when suddenly there were rapid footsteps near the corridor.

"If you go back to the girl, someone from the second door spreads a word, saying it's the entourage by Prince Zhongshun asking to see you."

Qin Yining was taken aback, and handed over the account book to Qiu Lu, who now manages her belongings exclusively, before holding Erbai to the ground.

Bingtang and Jiyun hurriedly followed, and walked to the flower hall of the outer courtyard.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw a tiger in a dark blue outfit.

"It turns out that you are here." Qin Yining's hand wrapped in gauze went down and fiddled with Er Bai's drooping ears.

Huzi quickly saluted Qin Yining, his eyes turned on her injured hand, and looked at Bingtang again, grinning: "Potato Extract, you are here too."

Bingtang flushed angrily by Huzi's name, and it was not good to be rude in front of his own lady, so he gave him a pair of big eyes.

Huzi was stared at her nose, and said: "Miss Si, our prince's old injury recurred, which caused the poison he was hit last time to reappear. So I specifically told me to ask the rock sugar girl to go for treatment."

Qin Yining's heart jumped when she heard that, Pang Xiao was shot through his shoulders with an arrow to protect her. On that day, his robe was stained with blood and he broke the arrow and fought again. He stood in front of her and fought with the Tatars. It is still engraved in my mind.

Poisoning is not a trivial matter. Bingtang's medical skills are good, and because of family history, Bingtang is too young to hold it. What if there is any omission in this?Qin Yining frowned in worry.

Bingtang curled his lips indifferently: "Your lord really has a poisonous attack?"

Huzi was stared at by Bingtang’s big round eyes, his face couldn't help being flushed, and his grin became even more cheerful: "Yes, yeah, it's an attack, so I bother Miss Si and take Bingtang girl. Let's go." Hands folded begging.

Qin Yining was a little confused when seeing Hu Zi like this.

She looked at Bingtang questioningly.

Bingtang glared at Huzi and said, "Girl don't listen to his nonsense. Although the prince has suffered a lot of injuries and some dark diseases during the long battle, the poison has been resolved at that time. Now, what kind of nonsense, there must be a mess! "

Qin Yining nodded slightly when he heard the words.

Huzi said, "The fourth lady is because our prince is sincere to you, so let's go."

Qin Yining's face flushed.

Pang Xiao rescued her several times. Even if Sun's Xiaoshou was a scene of the emperor that day, Pang Xiao did indeed save her, and in order to support her with a long face, he did not hesitate to offend people and gave her such a valuable house.

This person is a bit more domineering, and never asks her likes when doing things, but she owes him after all.

"Finally, just let you go."

Qin Yining handed Erbai to Jiyun, "I will go with Bingtang. Tell my mother that there is something outside of me. You can take care of my mother in Xingning Garden. If it is an old lady, please ask my mother to go. , You just follow, don’t embarrass her."

Jiyun smiled and nodded: "Girl, don't worry." Holding Erbai and backing down.

Qin Yining followed Huzi out with rock candy.
