Chapter 119: Cooperation is mutually beneficial

"Yes, the third brother not only cleared up the banditry, but also came back safe and sound. It's just Qingyun, but his father made him a promise. If he comes back this time to ask for a holy decree to marry Miss Wei, how will you stay? ”

Before Qin Xi's words fell, Gu Qingyun's expression had changed, and her original joy quickly faded from her beautiful eyes, her eyes were extremely solemn, and her face was as heavy as water.

Seeing this, the corners of Qin Xi's mouth hooked up a smile, "Besides, if I don't find Xie Ning first, it will be difficult to ensure that after the third brother returns to Beijing, I can't hold back for a while, and I will instigate my subordinates to attack him." Qingyun, we are mutually beneficial, are you sure you don't want to help me? ”

With Qin Xi's character, even if he was angry with Xie Ning, he might not let go of the opportunity to design Qin Feng at that time. Gu Qingyun knew this, and although she didn't have the intention of agreeing, she still couldn't help but ask out loud: "How is the cooperation of the two benefits?" Please also ask Your Highness to make it clear. ”

Qin Xi glanced at Gu Qingyun confidently, as if she was sure that she would promise herself, and said directly: "Xie Ning doesn't know how to be respectful and humble, I just taught her a simple lesson, and I won't be too embarrassed, as for Wei Qingcheng, if there is anything indecent between her and me." You say, will my father still give her a marriage to the third brother? ”

Gu Qingyun lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, and her long eyelashes cast a shadow, and after a long time, her voice came from the pavilion - "What does Your Highness want me to do?" ”

Qin Xi smiled slightly, looked at the woman in front of him with a clear expression, and slowly spoke.

***

After Gu Qingyun left, everyone lost their interest in watching. It didn't take long for them to disperse. Xie Ning and Wei Chengcheng had no intention of walking around, and the two were about to return to the banquet along the same road, but a maidservant suddenly stepped forward and said, "I don't know if Miss is in the Mansion of Wei Guo?" My brother Wei Gongzi is looking for you. ”

Wei Tingcheng glanced at Xie Ning, and then responded with a little restraint: "Exactly." I wonder where my brother is now? ”

"Wei Gongzi waited beside Cuiwei Lake. Miss Wei is with me. The handmaid said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

When Wei Qingcheng heard this, he glanced at Xie Ning expectantly, and said softly: "Sister Xie, do you want to go with me?" ”

A smile opened at the corner of his mouth, and Xie Ning couldn't help but say in a sneering voice: "I still have something to discuss with Mama Qin, so I won't go with you." ”

"Okay then." Seeing Xie Ning's polite refusal, Wei Qingcheng's eyes darkened. The tone was hard to hide. I had to go with the maid alone.

Xie Ning's move was deliberate. Mama Qin's hints twice and three times made her aware of the intentions of the Duke of Wei, but the disparity in family background and knowledge was there. Shainin thinks he is qualified enough to be a military dependent. But the eldest daughter-in-law of the Duke of Wei. But it's not something she can think about.

Therefore, although Wei Qingcheng intends to match, she must keep a distance from Wei Qingyang.

After separating from Wei Chengcheng, Xie Ning did not stay where he was to chat with the Gao sisters. Instead, he went back to the front yard on his own. Discussing something with Mama Qin was not just an excuse for her to reject Wei Qingcheng, after all, in Xie Ning's eyes, instead of not knowing how to pretend to understand and recognizing with these noble girls, it was better to say a few more words to Mama Qin and increase her knowledge.

Unexpectedly, Xie Ning returned to the banquet, but she couldn't find Mama Qin, and after inquiring around, she learned that Mama Qin had been invited by Mrs. Gu to talk. At this time, she was the only one left on the table, Xie Ning couldn't help but be a little bored, Qin Xi and Xiang were not on the table, she had nothing to take care of, and as soon as her eyes turned, she began to look for Xiao Yan's figure.

Before he could find anyone, there was a slight sound of footsteps behind him, and Xie Ning turned his head keenly, and his eyes were slowly coming to see the frost coming slowly.

But seeing her expression was slightly surprised, but after a moment, she smiled again, "Miss is really here." ”

Xie Ning smiled, his eyes swept over her, and asked aloud, "Why are you here?" ”

She went out today, although she was accompanied by Mama Qin and Mingshuang, but the Prime Minister's Mansion was strictly controlled, and only one guest was allowed to enter the banquet. Mama Qin entered the banquet, and Mingshuang had to stay in the carriage and wait. Now that she is here, Xie Ning will inevitably be a little curious in his heart.

What Xie Ning thought in his heart, Mingshuang knew it, and saw her answer with a smile, "It was Xiao Gongzi who brought me in when he came." However, there is a partition between the front yard and the back yard, and it took a lot of effort for the slave and maid to find this place. ”

After hearing her explanation, Xie Ning suddenly responded with his head. Thinking of the twists and turns she found all the way, she took advantage of no one to pay attention, quietly poured a cup of tea and handed it to Mingshuang, "Have a cup of tea." Mama Qin is now with Old Madam Gu, presumably when she comes back, our group can also go back. ”

Mingshuang drank the tea and consciously stood behind Shainin. The two were speechless for a while, and just as Shaining was searching his stomach and trying to say something, a servant girl suddenly stopped at Shainin's side.

The servant girl was holding a tray with a jade pot of fine wine. As early as she approached, Shainin had already paid attention to her, but he didn't expect her to stop beside him. Curious, Xie Ning looked up, but what he didn't want to see was a face that was not unfamiliar.

Not long ago, the two met in Xiangfu Garden. Seeing her calm expression, Xie Ning swallowed the inquiry in his mouth, and was about to make Mingshuang take the wine on the tray, when the maidservant's flustered whisper came from his ear - "Miss Xie, the slave maid and Miss Wei went to the lake, but they didn't see Gongzi Wei, but met His Royal Highness King Xuan. If you don't go again, you're afraid of ......"

At first glance, when she heard that Wei Chengcheng had an accident, Xie Ning couldn't help but stagnate, although the other party's description was not exhaustive, it was enough for her to piece together the ins and outs of the matter. What's more, Wei Xiaomei has no contact with Qin Xi, and Qin Xi will attack her, which is self-evident.

Xie Ning's expression was full, his face was full of coldness, thinking that Wei Qingcheng was innocently affected because of her, he was even more anxious, so he stood up immediately, stretched out his hand and grabbed the handmaid's sleeve, and his demeanor was difficult to take into account, "Where are they now?" Take me there. ”

I didn't want Xie Ning to make a sudden move, the maid was caught off guard for a while, her body was a little untenable, her steps were off, and she almost tripped over.

Seeing this, Xie Ning hurriedly helped her up, and was about to urge her again, when he saw Mingshuang reach out and put his hand on the handmaid's shoulder, and asked in a cold voice: "Now that King Xuan has arrived, how did you escape?" And why did you come to this ventilation? ”

The maid goddess was not flustered, her eyes flashed, and she replied softly: "The slave escaped from the chaos when King Xuan and Miss Wei were entangled. As for why they want to report the news, they are both women, so they must be able to understand the slave's mind. ”

After listening to her explanation, Mingshuang's eyes were still suspicious, and he didn't want Xie Ning to be good at it. (To be continued.) )
