Return of the Swallow

Qin Yining returned to the apse halfway up the mountain, his face pale and relieved, his forehead was touched, his hands were covered in cold sweat, and his heart was beating wildly.

Qiu Lu hurriedly wringed her veil to serve her and wipe her face, and said with a lingering fear: "It just really scared the slaves to death! So many people, a group of people who are under pressure, if they rush in, they can drown us with a single spit. Die! The lost girl is witty and clever in answering the question. If it provokes people's grievances, we won't be trampled to death this time!"

Qin Yining took the honey water sent from the cloud and poured it into a bowl, only then did he feel that he was alive.

"I'm witty? I'm almost nervous." Putting down the white porcelain gilt bowl, Qin Yining stroked his chest and said, "Do you think it's so easy to pretend to be a god stick? For that kind of scene, I think every word, not a word. I dare to say something wrong, and I have to act like a "saint", but you know who I am best. Where do I come from? I have to think about what to say and have to I was thinking about what to do. Fortunately, I had already guessed some of the questions they wanted to ask in advance, otherwise I still don’t know what to do."

"No, I helped the girl. The girl was shaking all the time, which made me tremble nervously." Jiyun smiled bitterly. "Why did the girl think of the questions they would ask in advance?"

"It's not difficult. At this point, I can still guess what the people care about."

Qin Yining was talking, and there was a guard outside who said back and forth: "Return to the real person, Anping Houfu is here."

Qin Yining was overjoyed upon hearing this, and said hurriedly: "Please, please."

Hurriedly went downstairs with Jiyun and Qiulu.

When I saw Qin Huaiyuan, the second master, and the third master, Qin Yining laughed happily. Seeing that their clothes were wet with sweat, and they were all wrinkled like pickles, Qin Yining knew that these three must be crowded with the crowd. Together, they must have rushed to the other hospital after knowing the news.

Qin Yining saluted with emotion: "Father, second uncle, third uncle, it's so late, I have to take this trip for you."

"Where is it." The third master sat down in the armchair by himself, and said, "Sister Yi, bring Sanshu a bowl of herbal tea. My voice is irritated."

Qin Yining urged Jiyun and Qiu Lu: "Hurry up."

Ask the elders to sit down. Not long after, Qiu Lu and Jiyun came back with a tray and smiled: "There is iced sour plum soup, which can quench thirst and cool off the heat. Master, please use it."

Speaking of which, Qin Huaiyuan, the second master and the third master each served a big bowl.

Qin Yining waited for the refill with a pot on the side, and waited on his father and two uncles to drink half a pot of iced plum soup before they put down the bowl.

"We just got the news, we came, but there are too many people, we can only abandon the car and walk in with the crowd. You just showed that your father saw it, and you did a good job." Qin Huaiyuan smiled.

Qin Yining said blankly: "Father and uncles have seen it? I tried to act on purpose."

The second master smiled and said, "Pretending to be good, pretending to look like, and holding a little bunny? It looks like Chang'e under the light. The people have never seen this battle, just look at the appearance. I was shocked first."

"Yes. You are so good, otherwise no one will be convinced by what you say." The third master also said.

Qin Yining said: "It was because I was afraid that what I said wouldn't work, so I made the best move. At any rate, I managed to deal with the crisis temporarily."

"You said that the altar will be set up to ask the sky on the day. What will you do then?"

Qin Yining smiled bitterly: "Where can I put up an altar? I don't know anything. I can only ask a serious Taoist priest to teach me. I believe that if I follow the steps, I will not be embarrassed. As for how to give the people an explanation, it is still necessary It’s up to the emperor."

Qin Huaiyuan raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, "So, you have already figured out how to solve the food problem?"

"The daughter is not sure whether the problem is easy to solve. I just want to discuss with my father, isn't my father coming here with a clear heart."

Qin Huaiyuan smiled upon hearing this.

As soon as Qin Yining was about to speak out the countermeasure he thought of, a slightly sharp voice came from outside, "The emperor is here!"

Qin Yining frowned upon hearing this.

It's already this time. Even if something major happens outside, the emperor wants to ask about the situation. He only needs to send someone he can trust around him. Why should he go out in person?

Today it happened that the father and two uncles were there. If they hadn't come, what would they say if they were passed out?

Obviously, Qin Huaiyuan, the second master and the third master also thought of this layer, and their complexions were not very good-looking.

Several people got up to pick up.

"Long live the emperor."

"Welcome the emperor!"

Yu Chiyan wore a net towel on her head and regular clothes. She wore a pair of soft-soled boots on her feet, which she wore indoors. Her face flushed due to the rush to walk, and the lines on her brows were extremely deep. It is clear that she hastily heard the news. Came here.

Entering the door, Yu Chiyan didn't see anyone else in his eyes, only Qin Yining, who was wearing a snow-white layered gauze jacket and skirt, supported anxiously with his hands: "Xuansu, are you okay?"

Qin Yining frowned, and hurriedly backed away from Yu Chiyan's warm hands, bowed her head and said, "Thank you, the emperor for your concern, the courtier is fine."

Qin Huaiyuan, the second elder and the third elder were all over here. Just looking at the emperor's unconcealed admiration look when he saw Qin Yining, he knew in his heart, although Qin Yining was forced to practice, how could the emperor give up to Qin Yining?If Qin Yining had half the heart to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, it would have happened long ago.

"The minister (caomin) see the emperor." Qin Huaiyuan, the second master and the third master all bowed.

Only then did Yu Chiyan notice that there were other people in the room, and coughed embarrassingly, and said, "Be flat."

"Xie Emperor."

Yu Chiyan took a seat in the front of the house and asked: "Just as soon as I returned to the palace, I heard that the people in the city were gathering here, so I rushed over. How is it? Are you hurt?"

"Back to the emperor, the courtiers are fine." Qin Yining said respectfully.

Yu Chiyan nodded, "That's good. You did a good job this time. Just now I asked the guard about the situation at the time. What you said was appropriate, calming people's hearts and avoiding a major riot. If it is a riot, Then there is no need to wait for the Dazhou people to come in, because I am afraid that there will be chaos in Beijing."

"The ministers are also in a hurry to follow their powers, so they come up with the next move."

When Yu Chiyan saw her with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, she looked like she was dressed in white. Although she hadn't seen her appearance with her own eyes, she could know how much dust she was in front of people only by imagination, and the love in her eyes quickly turned into substance overflowing. Now, the voice is extremely gentle.

"Listen to the guards, you plan to put on the altar tomorrow?"

"Yes." Qin Yining deliberately ignored Yu Chiyan's gentle tone.

"You are the person who has been approved by Tianjizi to protect the country's prosperity, and you can contact the gods if you want to?"

Qin Yining raised his head and looked at Wei Chiyan with interest.

How to answer his question at this time, so that he does not think that she is taking advantage of her arrogance and can achieve her goal, it is very important.

Qin Yining said: "When I go back to the emperor, I really don't lie to you. Whatever you say about setting up an altar to ask the sky, it's all the courtiers deliberately saying that to delay time."

"Oh?" The smile on the emperor's face deepened a bit.

The second master and the third master were surprised.

Qin Yining said: "Even though the courtier was approved by Tianjizi, it was just an accidental fortune from the courtier. The courtier is just an ordinary little woman. Where can there be such exaggerated skills? Okay, I admit that Tianjizi really said that the sky is full of flowers. But what kind of saint I am, I don't believe it myself."

"But you are indeed a very good person. You are a person who can protect the fortune of the country. If you say that you are not, it is meaningless to call you a true person Xuansu?"

"The significance of the courtesy's practice here is just to calm the people's hearts. Did the emperor believe in the rumors among the people and believe that the courtesy can communicate with the gods? If the courtesy have such good skills, it is better to directly ask the gods to help. Let's Dayan."

She was not pretentious, and such a straightforward statement greatly pleased Yu Chiyan.

The mood that had been suppressed for several days finally relaxed, Yu Chiyan smiled happily: "No matter, you just say that in front of me, don't say that when you go out."

"Yes." Qin Yining saluted and whispered, "The rumor that somehow spread among the people has demonized the courtiers. The courtiers are also forced to be helpless and can only bite the bullet and fool around. There are so many people here today. Improper handling will cause civil upheaval, and the ministers are determined to give it a try."

"Yeah. You are very smart and witty." Yu Chiyan praised her sincerely, and then asked, "I don't know how to deal with the people after the altar is set tomorrow?"

Qin Yining didn't change his face and said, "The courtier is just looking for a tactic to solve the food problem. Shouldn't it be the emperor?"

Yu Chiyan was blocked by Qin Yining's rhetorical question.

Yes, this is indeed what he should do.

Yu Chiyan said embarrassingly, "It is true that my business is not false, but how will you deal with the people tomorrow?"

"That's simple." Qin Yining smiled harmlessly, "I told them, I have already told the emperor. The emperor will naturally decide, so that no matter what the emperor decides, it will be in accordance with God's will, people I will definitely not object."

Yu Chiyan was speechless for a while.

This is throwing the problem to him again.

But he couldn't get angry at Qin Yining, "I have to thank you for that?"

"This is what the courtiers should do, the emperor does not have to be polite." Qin Yining lowered his head.

Yu Chiyan looked at her, speechless for a while, and thought to herself that she was indeed Taishi Qin's daughter, and her temperament was exactly the same as Taishi Qin.

"Qin Aiqing, Ling Ai refuses to help me, this burden will be on your shoulders."

Qin Huaiyuan responded in a low voice, saying: "The minister should do his best, but the emperor must have a solution."

The second master and the third master saw that the emperor was about to talk serious matters with Qin Huaiyuan, and did not dare to listen more, so they hurriedly retreated.

Qin Yining wanted to retire, but Wei Chiyan said, "Xuan Su stay."

The soft words made Qin Yining's goose bumps all over the floor.Because she couldn't resist the order, she could only step back and stand behind Qin Huaiyuan.

The emperor said: "Now the national treasury is empty. If you want to buy back the grain, you must have silver. Fortunately, Emperor Taizong issued treasures. I thought, it’s better to order the Banknote Printing Bureau to print a batch of treasures. If we don’t have the silver, let’s print a large number of them, so we can get rid of our urgent needs after buying food.

ps: After writing this chapter, I found a typo in the chapter "Chapter 242 Taxes and Food".Wrote "baochao" as "silver note."Baochao and silver note are two things. Baochao was the paper currency that replaced gold and silver at that time.Silver bills are somewhat similar to checks.At that time, I was confused for some reason.It has been modified and does not affect the meaning of the text, hereby let me know^_^
