Return of the Swallow

"Those people are naturally uneasy and kind." Qin Yining looked down, fingers flexibly threaded through needles, and her white fingers were carved from fine white jade under the light. Her tone was a little bit*. "Even if Tatar returns, it is still Duke Dingguo had to surrender, is he really convinced in his heart?"

Jiyun and Bingtang both shook their heads, both of them looked contemplative.

"They are not a nation that can easily yield. They are naturally wild and savage. If they are not convinced, they must find ways to replenish their energy, and they will eventually get revenge. In fact, I would very much agree with me. It will also hibernate, for aftereffects."

"So they are here to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday. They may not be sincere. Perhaps there is a conspiracy in it?"

"It must be so, but I still can't see it right now." Qin Yining said with a smile while holding the embroidery needles, "No matter what they are going to do in the future, they are sending gold and silver and beauties to the sacred. What will happen to the Lord in the ear?"

Jiyun and Bingtang's complexion changed suddenly.

"Wang Hao, how is this good?" Jiyun's voice was a little tight.

Bingtang said angrily, "I knew this group of barbarians were uneasy and kind! They were clearly trying to provoke discord and slander the prince!"

"It's not just the prince." Qin Yining said, "They will try their best to divorce the relationship between the sage and the courtiers, so Uncle Lu must have the same situation. The sage is suspicious, this trick is quite targeted."

Qin Yining's voice was lightened, "This is Ute Jinhan's consistent method. This person's scheming cannot be underestimated."

Thinking hard and acting has always been far-reaching, and he never used any means for success. For the sake of power, he can stay low and be an Ana Ri's cohort.For the sake of status, he can kill his wife and seize the throne regardless of his husband and wife.Such a person, Qin Yining didn't think he would obediently admit his fate if he was defeated.Siqin is like the most cunning jackal, for the sake of prey, he always has the patience to wait for opportunities.

"Lord."

"Lord."

While speaking, the handmaid's greeting came from outside the door.

As soon as the curtain cage was lifted, Pang Xiao walked in. He handed the cloak on his shoulders to the welcoming Yu Yun, rubbing his hands and walking towards Qin Yining, "Hey, there were just two more beautiful concubines."

Qin Yining was amused by his pretentious regret, "It's a pity that there are shrews in the family, which has delayed the prince's performance."

"Yes." As soon as Pang Xiao returned to the room, he completely lost the sharpness and dominance that he showed in front of outsiders, and completely turned into another harassing appearance. He sat next to Qin Yining and hugged Qin Yining's waist. Rubbed her shoulder with her chin.

Qin Yining was itchy after being rubbed, shrank his neck and avoided, and smiled: "How did you send them?"

Pang Xiao said innocently: "I just told them,'This king is afraid of being inward, but he doesn't dare to accept concubines. Fortunately, the loyal and righteous man is not afraid. He should not refuse. Please also send these beauties to the wise and righteous. '"

Qin Yining was taken aback for a moment, then he was amused and laughed, "You badass."

"Bad? I'm already very polite." Pang Xiao snorted, and wrote both contempt and No. 1 on his face.Although he didn't say what he said, he still cherished Lu Heng's longing for his wife.

Qin Yining knew that Pang Xiao was jealous, and she was helpless about this, so she had to change the subject: "The Tatars will not give up on this. Now the road to the capital is blocked, and the rest of the day will be when we have to deal with them. More."

The implication is that the beauty of gold and silver will be sent in in the future.

Pang Xiao frowned, "It's their business to send it or not, and it's mine to accept it or not."

"But after getting close, outsiders won't think that way. They might only guess how much you promised the Tatars. Or what you conspired in private."

When Qin Yining's words fell, there was silence in the house.

Pang Xiao put his arms around Qin Yining's waist and put his chin on Qin Yining's shoulders, but did not put all his own weight on her.

He just liked the elegant fragrance that filled her with his breath.

Qin Yining knew that Pang Xiao was a wise man and knew everything in his heart.Some things have been reminded, so he should give him time to think, so instead of saying much, he started embroidering slowly. The arms may touch Pang Xiao's body, and there was a slight rustling sound unexpectedly. , So that the atmosphere in the main room becomes gentle and quiet.

It's not that Pang Xiao's heart didn't understand.He was loyal to the emperor, and in exchange for a lot of suspicion, now outside of Kyoto, the Tatars have repeatedly visited the door, and the saint will already be suspicious if he can't see it with his own eyes.

What about suspicion?It is no longer a day or two that he has been jealous.From the disappointment and disparity when he first discovered it, to the various persecutions that followed, he is now numb, and he knows what he should care about most and what to pay attention to.

"Don't worry." For a long time, Pang Xiao chuckled lightly.

His lips brushed Qin Yining's earlobes, his voice was low and magnetic, and the heat blew Qin Yining's ears and cheeks, causing her to flutter.

Pang Xiao made her addicted, and continued to say in her ear: "I will take more precautions."

Qin Yining shrank his neck itchy and avoided, giggling, "Don't make trouble."

Sure enough, as Qin Yining expected, the Tatars hadn't stopped giving gold and silver beauties, and the next day they even went to see the princess directly while Pang Xiao went to the Yamen.

Qin Yining met them in the prejudice hall.

The visitor was a Tatar official. He was accompanied by Siqin that day. He brought four beauties, all sixteen or seventeen-year-old girls. Yan Shou Huanfei had their own strengths. Although they are not so stunning, they are not. Not to mention that they are indeed somewhat different from the Da Zhou women.

"I heard that the mansion is selfish and thin, and the princess must also consider for the prince Zhongshun. These four women have carefully selected the strongest bodies and the most honest people before they came. Next, let’s say nothing else, so as to quell the princess’s reputation for being jealous outside."

Qin Yining smiled and looked at the Tatar minister. He was in his early forties and was born tall and thin. When he smiled, there were several crow's feet curling upwards like hooks, and bags under his eyes were also squeezed out.

Qin Yining was not happy with this person's face, and his tone was very cold.

"The reputation of this princess's jealousy has been spread all over the world. Everyone knows it, and it's not a bad name. It doesn't bother adults to worry about opening up branches and leaves. People are marrying wives and virtues, concubines and sex, princes If you are a concubine, this princess will naturally choose for her those women who are healthy, of good character, and whose appearance is far better than mine. Please take them back."

The Tatar minister's face changed when he was said to, and he took a deep breath before he laughed and said: "The princess is really joking. If nothing else, there are not many women who can beat you in appearance. Wouldn't the loyal prince never be able to accept it? Concubine? Look, at the House of Uncle Zhongyi, Mrs. Uncle Zhongyi has already been under the virtuous uncle Dai. You might as well..."

"She is her, and I am me." Qin Yining smiled, "I am jealous, so I don't agree. Even if the prince wants to take a concubine, his appearance must be above me. This is what the prince promised long ago. Sorry, Please don’t intervene in our housework anymore."

Qin Yining's attitude can be described as quite tough, especially that she is not facing someone else, but an envoy from Tatar who comes with thoughtfulness.

It seemed that if the envoy didn't know each other, she would try to make him understand!

"Okay." He didn't want to spare his life to arrange people to come to the palace, and he didn't expect those women to do anything in the palace, they were just part of a divorce scheme.Since the palace is not willing to make the decision, it's fine, at least it's going well in the Zhongyi Bofu.

The Tatar minister finally left with the four Tatar girls.

When Pang Xiao came back in the evening, he smiled and said to Qin Yining, "Today, you did a good job. Uncle Zhongyi has already turned into a mess. His wife is not really stupid. Why is she pretending to be virtuous and even Tatar? The gifts of gold, silver and jewelry and the beauties were accepted."

Pang Xiao washed her face with water, but Qin Yining wiped the towel and said with a smile: "It's better to be my sister. There are good wives and wives in the family, but the ancients don't deceive me."

Qin Yining was amused by Pang Xiao's appearance, and sympathized with Lu Heng, but did not ask the Lu family in detail.

Everyone is responsible for the decisions they make.

When I got up early the next morning, the rain that had been continuous for nearly two months stopped unexpectedly. Although there were still thick clouds rolling in the sky, it was indeed a real rain stop. It was true that a drop of rain did not fall again. .

Bingtang, Jiyun, Ziyuan and Hanxiao happily went to the yard to clean up early in the morning. When they came back, their voices and footsteps were brisk.

"Wang Hao, the rain finally stopped! The servants and maidservants looked at the weather, it shouldn't continue!"

Qin Yining looked at the sky, "I feel it too."

"It will be fine if it doesn't rain anymore. It's been a sunny day since long. Our beddings are all damp and we rely on the hot kang."

As the girls had hoped, at midday, the dark clouds had disappeared, and the long-lost sun finally showed a face that had been shy for two months, and sprinkled warmth on the earth without reservation.

The entire Huichuan County and the surrounding mountains and mountains are covered by layers of white fog. The water vapor rises without any reservation. The weather seems to change from late autumn to summer. The warm weather makes people feel comfortable from the bone. , Even the sultry heat of the steaming basket makes people feel comfortable.

On two sunny days in a row, Fuzhong was drying damp bedding and clothing.

In the Bieyuan, the queen and her grandmother stood under the porch, raising her head to breathe the air mixed with mud, grass and moisture, with a satisfied and fulfilling smile on her face.

"This palace knows that begging for bodhisattvas and gods in good faith is audible. You see, Hugo of Huichuan really stopped these days of eating fast and reciting Buddha in this palace. I wonder if the rest of the place is also sunny."

"Niangniang prayed for the country, she moved to God and then she fell auspicious. If you want to come to God, you must sympathize with the sincerity of the Niangniang, and the rest of the place will definitely be sunny.

"I hope so." The queen smiled, and then said with a smile: "My palace heard that there is a Ten Thousand Buddha Temple in Huichuan County. Since it is useful to pray for blessings sincerely, we must not miss the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple."
