"This is going to ask you, why did I designate me to go to the southwest to quell the rebellion in the name of Princess Yunyang three years ago? Don't you know that this is my best opportunity to accumulate experience and prestige in leading troops?"

Xue Ying's eyes widened, stupid. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"That's why I asked you last time if you're just a puppet. Who is the person who is manipulating you?What happened to Princess Yunyang, why do you need to pretend to be her to give her a command?"

Xue Qi's questions were sharp, Xue Ying was completely powerless to parry, and only said after a long time: "I thought you were the one who objected to stretching your hands and eyes to Ganxiao Temple." ”

"It's not the same time it used to be. On the issue of the Northern Xinjiang Theater, the instructions given by Princess Yunyang have seriously affected the emperor's ruling power. What's more......" Xue Qi suddenly glanced at Xue Ying, and swallowed back the second half of the sentence in her inquiring gaze, "In short, I have probably made the matter clear, and I hope that my honesty can be exchanged for your cooperation." ”

"There's nothing to work with, I don't know anything. Xue Ying still refused.

"If you can bear to watch the lives of the people suffer, of course you can pretend that you don't know anything. ”

"That's a matter for the people of the world and your court officials, and it has nothing to do with me. Xue Ying had a cold face, "You said it, I'm just a puppet, a puppet, what can I do?"

"You can write a book of command. ”

Xue Ying was suddenly terrified. Xue Qi meant to let her go over the behind-the-scenes manipulator and directly issue a new command letter? That's right, the command letter she wrote had the same effect as what Princess Yunyang wrote, but doing so would mean letting her betray the behind-the-scenes manipulator. At that time, the emperor will have an open and honest reason to intervene in the affairs of the Northern Frontier Theater, which will benefit the imperial court, but she is likely to face a dead end.

To put it bluntly, Xue Qi only wanted to do things for the emperor and the court, but she didn't consider her position at all.

She suddenly laughed: "Xue participates in politics, in your eyes, my life is really worthless." ”

"If you take refuge in the emperor, someone will keep you safe. ”

"No, I don't believe you. ”

"And who do you believe? The man who manipulated you?"

"I believe in my master, and I will do whatever she tells me to do. ”

Xue Qi frowned at her stubbornness: "Do you know what you will face?"

"Death, or more pain than death. Xue Ying's face was expressionless, "I already knew many years ago that my master is not like you, before pushing me up the knife mountain, she will at least tell me, and then put on a pair of beautiful shoes for me, but what about you? Anyway, in the end, you will be disappointed, it is better to believe the person who has not given a promise. ”

Xue Qi's eyes flashed with astonishment and pain: "Ying'er......"

"I've heard what you're going to say, and there's nothing else to say. Xue Ying got up, no longer glanced at Xue Qi, and strode out of the hall.

Out of the hall, I found that Xue Jing and Liao Yunxi were sitting under the tree in the courtyard playing chess, and when they saw Xue Ying and Xue Qi coming out, they both stood up together and looked at Xue Ying with a gloomy expression with some concern.

Xue Ying reluctantly pulled out a smile: "The cold house is shabby, and the greetings are not good, I hope you will forgive me." ”

"The county lord is polite. Liao Yunxi walked up to Xue Qi and asked what happened with his eyes.

Xue Qi shook his head slightly, did not respond, and returned a reassuring look.

A few people were embarrassed, and a small figure suddenly ran over from the moon gate, staggering on its short legs, but not slow.

"Slow down, be careful of falling!" a soft female voice came from behind her.

The child looked up and saw Xue Ying, grinning and rushing over.

"Be careful!" Xue Ying hurriedly caught her little body that she almost wrestled, picked her up and nodded her nose, "Naughty again, what should I do if my mother is tired?"

The child didn't care what she said, hugged her neck and kissed her softly, which was cute.

This trick was very effective, Xue Ying was so happy to hug her that she suddenly forgot to continue to criticize education.

Over there, the child's mother finally arrived, and when she saw the two of them, she couldn't help but smile, a little helpless: "I knew she was coming to you." ”

Xue Ying smiled and nodded in greeting: "Master Liuli." ”

Master Liuli stretched out his hand: "Evening, it's time for us to go home." ”

Wanwan put his head in Xue Ying's arms and rubbed back and forth, and said in a milky voice: "Yingniang......"

"Don't mess around, you Yingniang still has guests. ”

Only then did she raise her head and secretly look at the others. Xue Jing looked curious, Xue Qi was still pondering, and he didn't care much about what happened, but Liao Yunxi looked at Master Liuli with a shocked expression.

"Miss Qiao San?"

Liuli father and son hugged Wan Wan over, and their eyes skimmed over Liao Yunxi with a faint light, without any abnormality: "Madame recognized the wrong person." "Slightly bowed and left with Wanwan.

Xue Qi also noticed Master Liuli because of Liao Yunxi's sentence "Miss Qiao San", and looked at her back with a frown, with exploration in his eyes.

Liao Yunxi trembled with excitement, and grabbed Xue Qi's arm tightly: "That person just now is Miss Qiao San, right?"

Xue Qi raised his eyebrows and thought for a while, and said, "Miss Qiao San has passed away for many years, and that person is not her." ”

"But......" Liao Yunxi looked up at Xue Qi, then realized his gaffe, and only said to himself after fixing his body, "Yes, Miss Qiao San has passed away." ”

Xue Qi looked at Xue Ying: "That person just now was your master?"

"Yes. Xue Ying naturally heard their conversation, and although she had some questions about Miss Qiao San in their mouths, she didn't raise it, but drove away again. "It's getting late, so please go back. ”

Liao Yunxi's expression was still a little excited, and he suddenly grabbed Xue Ying's hand: "I remember you said that your master is the wife of a mountain hunter. Are you sure it's her?"

"Sorry, no comment. ”

After sending the people away, Xue Ying turned around and saw Dong Xun who looked wrong, and asked, "What's wrong with Qiaoya?"

Dong Xun sighed: "She saw the silver ticket in the box, a full million taels." Now I can't find her. ”

Xue Ying didn't say anything and walked away. It didn't take long to bring a heavy ladder and climb up to the roof. Sure enough, Qiaoya sat on it, sullen.

"What's the temper?" Xue Ying went over and sat beside her.

"I heard that someone asked someone from the Chuyue Pavilion to 'hunt down' Xiang Yun, and the price was also one million taels. Qiao Ya glanced at Xue Ying with melancholy, "When I asked you if you had anything to do with this matter, you swore that you didn't." ”

"I just don't want you to worry. You know, you're so angry. ”

"But Miss!" Qiao Ya almost stomped her feet to vent her anxiety, "You have enough trouble, you really don't need to get involved in the affairs of the Marquis of Wuyang for me." ”
