Return of the Swallow

Chapter 624: Entering the Palace (Part 1)

Qin Yining returned to the palace, removed the threshold and opened the door, and the carriage went straight to the inner house unimpeded.

On the carriage, Qin Yining explained the situation in the mansion to Bingtang and Jiyun in a low voice, and said, "You must be more careful about this matter, and you must not disclose it."

"Yes. Don't worry, the princess, we understand the importance. We must proceed carefully, and nothing will be bad."

Qin Yining smiled and said: "I can rest assured. Last night I suffered you, and the night wind on the mountain was cold. Don't you have to catch a cold. I asked them to prepare ginger soup and cook a pot of ginseng chicken soup on a low fire. You all have to eat some. ."

Jiyun and Bingtang felt warm, smiling and nodding.

Bingtang smiled and said: "The princess loves to worry about it, and it can get cold to us anywhere."

Qin Yining laughed and joked: "It's not that it's not cold. The tiger is on the mountain, so where is it to make you cold."

Bingtang's face turned red, and he gave Qin Yining a blushing look: "The princess is really getting worse and worse! It's so bad!"

Looking at her shy appearance, Qin Yining thought that Pang Xiao had been saved.Even if they have a rough future, as long as everyone is alive and well, she won't be afraid of anything.Thinking of this, Qin Yining was in a great mood for a while, and did not laugh until he resisted.

Back at Siqing Garden, Qin Yining sent rock candy and Jiyun to bathe and change clothes for a rest.

I called Xianyun and asked in a low voice, "Where is the prince?"

Xian Yun looked outside the door and made sure that no one was eavesdropping, and then lowered his voice: "A few people have just arrived, saying that they are your friends. The guard Cao next to the old lady asked the prince to go out with him."

Qin Yining immediately understood that Pang Xiao had gone out to meet the Qingtian League.

Although the people of the Qingtian League are not honest gentlemen, and they may not have any talents in ruling the country, but there are many capable people and strangers among them.This time, she and Pang Xiao's plan needed the help of capable people and strangers in the Qingtian League.

Qin Yining knew that Pang Xiao would be very careful to cover it up when he went out, and even Yao Shi and Yao Chenggu didn't move around, so he was completely relieved.

Such days of hiding will soon pass.I had to hold on for a while.

Qin Yining asked someone to pass the post to the palace.

"It's said that the prince is still in the underground palace, and so is the saint. The minister's wife specially invites to see the queen and the queen mother, and I want to greet them.

The Queen Mother and Li Helan are eating grapes.The grapes on Xingong are full and the juice is rich and sweet.Li Helan ate happily, but the queen mother took two to relax.

"We're eating well here. But your emperor brother is in the underground palace... my heart is really tortured."

Li Helan slowly lowered her hand, dropped the grapes into the plate, and slowly took the veil and wiped her fingers.

"Don't hurt the queen. The emperor's brother will surely be unharmed."

When Li Helan said this, she actually didn't know her heart.

During this period, Ji Zeyu insisted on digging on the mountain and only went down once during this period, which shows that the situation on the mountain is not optimistic.

Li Helan didn't know what would become of the Great Zhou in the future if Li Qitian was really gone.But sitting in that position with her own elder brother, and sitting in that position with her cousin, it is naturally impossible for her to be the same.

"Mother, how about we find a way to arrange more manpower, and rescue the emperor brother as soon as possible."

The queen mother heard the words and smiled bitterly: "It's not easy. Twenty days have passed. Twenty days! Your emperor brother is in it, 80%... These mothers dare not think about it. Even if we arrange for someone to go, I'm afraid it is. ..."

Li Helan couldn't help but condensed her eyebrows: "Then why didn't the queen arrange more people to go when the incident happened?"

Li Helan has been raised since she was young, and talking to the queen mother was just a mother-daughter dialogue. She always said whatever she thought of. She really didn't realize that her words really struck the queen mother's heart.

The queen mother could not help but sinking her face, "What were you doing at the time? At that time, the Ai family was busy consolidating our position as the Li dynasty! Do you think that if the Ai family did not arrange for the regency of the Li Jun king in time, the military power of the Hu Ben Army was in your brother's hands. In the hands, will the people of those factions in the court continue to surrender? They were still not convinced when your emperor brother was there! Just because of our female generation, we don't want to hold on to power, sooner or later will be a death!"

Li Helan was frightened by the cannibalistic eyes of the queen mother, blinked and swallowed her saliva, and said timidly: "Don't be angry, the queen, your daughter also knows your difficulties. Don't say anything else, it's these days when your daughter enters the palace. Here, there have been two more interrogations. Those dead eunuchs have eaten the guts of the bear heart and the leopard, and they all want to search my body. Fortunately, my daughter is a little majestic. They didn't dare to be presumptuous."

"Is there anything like this?" The Queen Mother was very surprised, she couldn't help but sit up straight and asked: "When is it? Why didn't you listen to you before?"

"In just these two days, they didn't dare to question their daughter, so the children did not take it seriously."

Li Helan saw that the Queen Mother's face was not pretty, so he hesitated to ask: "Mother, what's wrong with you?"

The queen mother shook her head, her lips pressed into a line.

Could it be that Jun Wang Li had a rebellious heart?

As the Queen Mother recalled, she always felt that the appearance of King Li Jun was a bit wrong.

The queen mother knows her daughter's temperament, impulsiveness, and arrogance. If she says this to her, she will show her feet outside. If the noise reaches the ears of Prince Li, it is not good.

Thinking of this, the Queen Mother only said: "Nothing."

At this time, a servant in front of the door said back and forth: "As for the Queen Mother, Princess Zhongshun handed over the post."

Both the Queen Mother and Li Helan raised their eyebrows and looked at the front of the hall.

Li Helan frowned, her face full of displeasure.

The waiter came up with the post in both hands.

The queen mother took a look at the result, and said: "Qin's decree to enter the palace later to greet the Ai's family. She is also very interested."

"She's just hypocritical." Li Helan raised her voice in dissatisfaction. "That Humeizi is not a fuel-efficient lamp. She is used to the camel trader in the nine countries, so the queen must never ignore her.

The queen mother knew that Li Helan and Qin Yining had never dealt with each other.Li Helan might still miss Pang Xiao in her heart.He didn't pierce it face to face, just said: "No matter, you don't like her, just leave the palace earlier."

This is how the Queen Mother decided to see Qin Yining.

Li Helan was dissatisfied and stood up: "The queen knows that she is facing outsiders and let me go? Just go!"

After leaving a sentence, Li Helan angrily led the people out of the palace.

The queen mother looked at Li Helan's back and sighed helplessly. Her daughter was so arrogant that she had no choice but to follow her.She has no extra effort to teach her now.

Qin Yining didn't know what was going on in the palace. After getting permission, he immediately changed clothes and prepared to enter the palace.

Pang Xiao hugged her into the carriage and whispered in front of the carriage door: "You remember what I said, your safety is the most important, and the rest are secondary. If you don't work, come back soon."
