Chapter Ninety-Six: Someone is watching
"Miss, don't worry, Mama Qin won't think you ran out secretly."
Not in the mood to deal with Gu Sui's jokes, Xie Ning couldn't even pull out a reluctant smile, his small face sank like water, for fear of being seen by the two, so he didn't turn his head, just turned his back to the two and said, "Okay, then I'll go." ”
She didn't expect that Pei Xinghai would come to the Hou Mansion in person and invite her out to meet. It's not that she doesn't know how to explain it to Uncle Pei, it's just that it happened suddenly, and she was afraid that Xuan Wang Qin Xi would be sent to watch her outside, so she would notice this matter. Because of the personal grudge with her, Uncle Pei was implicated for no reason.
But it's been so far, it's useless to worry. If Qin Xi really had such a thought, she could only inform Uncle Pei in advance, which would also make it easier for them to discuss a countermeasure and take precautions as soon as possible.
Xie Ning left the Hou Mansion with a lot of concern, and as soon as he walked outside the door, he saw a tall figure standing next to the carriage. She stepped forward quickly, didn't care about greeting Pei Xinghai, gave him a look, and got into the carriage.
Pei Xinghai followed, and after sitting down opposite Shaining, although he didn't notice Shaining's nervousness, he couldn't help but ask, "Good and decent, how can you be unwell?" Could it be that someone in the Hou Mansion treats you harshly? ”
Hearing the obvious concern in his voice, Xie Ning reluctantly pulled out a smile, shook his head and denied: "I'm not unwell, what the letter says is just a pretext, don't believe it." ”
Looking at Xie Ning, who had a dull face, Pei Xinghai became more and more confused, and couldn't help but ask out loud: "Then why do you want to use this as an excuse to excuse this matter?" ”
"That's what I want to say to you next," Xie Ning paused before continuing: "The last time we met, I mentioned to you the festival between King Xuan and me. I'm only afraid that he will seek revenge, so I will refrain from this matter. Presumably, when you came to the Hou Mansion to look for me today, you can't hide it from King Xuan's eyes and ears. ”
Pei Xinghai frowned, and said very angrily: "A dignified prince would make a big fuss about such a trivial matter, and his qi is inevitably too narrow." What's more, it was the old yellow calendar from a month ago, how could he still remember it in his heart? There was a hint of disbelief in his tone.
Why is Xie Ning helpless in his heart? sighed secretly in his heart, and in the face of Uncle Pei's questioning, Xie Ning clarified his chaotic thoughts before he explained slowly: "It's a long story, a few days ago, King Xuan suddenly sent me a post, asking me to go to Wangxian Tower to see off King An. But he didn't expect that his send-off was fake, and the framing was true, which caused His Royal Highness King An to be shocked. In a hurry, I couldn't help but take action and offended him again. He has a grudge against me. ”
Speaking of this, Xie Ning suddenly lifted the curtain on the side, glanced out the window, and then retracted his gaze and said to Pei Xinghai: "When I came here just now, I noticed that there are a few breaths on this street that are very long, but there are few people on the street, except for us, how many people are there?" Hiding their heads and tails, secretly ambushing, this group of people appearing here, there must be a plot, it is very likely that King Xuan sent to monitor me. ”
Pei Xinghai's eyes flashed slightly when he heard this, he pricked up his ears, listened with bated breath for a while, and then sighed in a heavy tone: "With such an action, it seems that he really has a deep grudge against you." ”
"Heh," Xie Ning sneered, "Even his own brother, he can frame him without mercy, and he is so ruthless, how can he let me go so easily?" "Designed by him, Qin Feng not only had to take on the responsibility of suppressing bandits, but also almost fell off his horse in shock, and the reason why Qin Xi attacked him was simply because he lost an industry.
I don't know how Qin Feng is now? Yandi is not far from the capital, presumably now, there has been a report of the bandits. Such a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, Xie Ning sat in the car, but he couldn't help but care about Qin Feng's recent situation.
Yandi is in serious turmoil, I don't know if he can suppress it, will he be injured? Is there any onset?
"Girl, girl," Pei Xinghai called twice, but didn't get a response, so he couldn't help but stretch out his hand and shake it in front of her eyes, frowning: "Even if King Xuan intends to be unfavorable to you, you don't have to worry so much." Don't worry, with Uncle Pei here, you won't be wronged. ”
A double image flashed in front of him, Xie Ning suddenly came back to his senses, listened to Pei Xinghai's speculative words, couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, and clarified: "Uncle Pei misunderstood, what I just thought was just a copy, not what you thought." Even if Qin Xi really had a plan, I might not have no way to deal with it. I'm only worried that he'll find out about our relationship and will secretly make trouble for you. ”
Pei Xinghai pondered silently for a moment, but his expression softened, and he comforted Xie Ning: "You don't have to worry too much, don't say that King Xuan won't find a small role like me, now that the peace is decided, I will stay in Beijing for less than a month." What's more, with your Uncle Pei's skills, it's not easy to deal with one or two secret guards? ”
Open guns are easy to dodge, but hidden arrows are difficult to defend. Xie Ning is still very confident in Pei Xinghai's skills, but he is afraid that Qin Xi will secretly make trouble and oppress people with power. Thinking of this, Xie Ning immediately reminded him: "Having said that, Uncle Pei, you should be careful when you go in and out in the past, don't be careless." ”
"Well," it was Xie Ning's advice in his ears, but Pei Xinghai just raised his head casually, and was about to say a perfunctory sentence, when he saw the gloomy face on Xie Ning's face, he couldn't help swallowing the words that had not yet been spoken, his brows furrowed, and his heart instantly thought of Xie Ning's words and deeds, so he couldn't help but lean closer, and asked inquiringly: "Really?" If so, what are you thinking?'
Hearing the faint suspicion in his voice, Xie Ning didn't think much about it, and replied directly: "I just don't know the recent situation of His Royal Highness King An, and I am a little concerned." As for King Xuan's matter, although I am powerless to prevent him from coming to the door, I can take precautions. It's just that he doesn't want to confront him head-on anymore and cause any trouble, so he avoids in the Hou Mansion and doesn't want to go out. Don't think about it, and don't worry about me. ”
After listening to her explanation, Pei Xinghai's face did not look a little better, a almost imperceptible light quickly flashed under his eyes, and he said in a light tone: "Although King An went to Yandi to suppress bandits, there are subordinates and soldiers by his side, you don't have to worry." ”
Hearing him say this, Xie Ning suddenly felt that he was thinking too far, so he couldn't help but raise his hand and touch the back of his head, and said with a sneer: "What Uncle Pei said is extremely true. I only took into account that His Highness was ill, but I forgot that he was accompanied by other people when he went out. If you hadn't reminded me, I'm afraid I wouldn't know how long I would have been worried? ”
