Chapter 247: Tell Me Straight
Shainin didn't ask much about other things. Lewen's novel chapters are updated the fastest (the best experience of novel reading is all in [])
After going through so many things, she had already figured out Qin Feng's temperament. Regarding the topic of Shudi, the two had already talked about it more than once, and now that Qin Feng hadn't talked about it more, even if she wanted to get something out of his mouth again, she was afraid that it would be in vain.
She already knew it, so naturally she wouldn't deliberately mention it again and make him embarrassed.
But after all, this matter is related to her father's reputation, Qin Feng doesn't tell her, but she can't just put this matter aside.
So there was only one way in front of her - to Shudi.
What is the shape there, she always has to investigate it herself, so that she can rest easy, lest Qin Feng hide something in order to protect her.
This idea was born after she learned that Qin Feng was about to go to Shudi. If she had some scruples before and didn't dare to go, but now that she had left the Hou Mansion, she naturally didn't have to worry about someone blocking her.
She has lost the name of Miss Jingyang Houfubiao, and she no longer has to be constrained by her elders in Beijing, and judging from the current situation, the Liu family will naturally not care about her.
But Gao Daonian got the news that she went to Shudi, but he might not ignore her. Xie Ning had no other way but to rely on the news that the Hou Mansion had severed relations with her to prevent the other party from obstructing her actions.
As for Qin Feng's side...... She had no choice but to test it first.
Xie Ning secretly smiled bitterly, turned around, and said to Qin Feng again: "I want to go to Shu with you." ”
Without the slightest dragging mud and water, Xie Ning said what she thought in her heart so bluntly, although she was not sure at all whether Qin Feng would allow her to move forward with her.
As soon as the words fell, Qin Feng's face changed for a moment, and he frowned tightly and said, "This time is different from the past, and the situation in Shu is not optimistic. You finally came to the capital, so don't go through this troubled water. ”
was rejected by him, but Xie Ning didn't give up trying, and after a slight pause, he couldn't help but speak: "But my father is still in Shu now." If I knew he was in danger and didn't help him, wouldn't I be a vain woman? ”
"General Xie definitely won't want you to go," Qin Feng's expression suddenly turned cold, and he said to Xie Ning in a light tone: "You better stay in the capital." The affairs of Shudi. I'll do it. ”
It's not that Xie Ning doesn't believe that Qin Feng can't handle these things, it's just that she is not a delicate woman who doesn't go out of the door, even if her martial arts are not as advanced as the other party, but it will not reach the point of dragging the other party back.
Since she won't involve Qin Feng, why not follow him to Shudi? Anyway, she has also stayed in Shu for more than ten years. Even if you can't do anything else, it's not a problem to identify the way and find the way, maybe you can help Qin Feng.
Thinking of this, Xie Ning had a stronger fighting spirit in his heart, and after standing in front of Qin Feng quickly, he subconsciously asked, "Why do you have to stay in the capital?" Shu is not a sea of swords, mountains and fires, even if it is, but so so so - you can get it, Banxia will go, and tens of thousands of soldiers will get it. Why can't I go? ”
She thought Qin Feng would understand.
Xie Ning smiled bitterly, and there was a loss in his eyes that was difficult to hide.
Seeing this, Qin Feng still pursed his lips and said, "It's not that you can't go, it's just that you have more important things to do than going to Shudi." ”
Hearing the undeniable toughness in his words, Xie Ning's heart couldn't help but sink, and he asked in a cold voice, "What's the matter?" ”
"The female officer tried it," Qin Feng turned his back to his hand, but there was a glint in his dark eyes, and he saw him looking at Xie Ning with a calm expression. His eyes burned and he said: "A-Ning, by this time, you should also understand this truth." Your own strength is what can protect you the most. ”
I almost forgot. She also has a female officer exam to prepare.
Xie Ning did not forget about jì, and initially she decided to apply for the female official examination for this purpose. She doesn't want to be looked down upon anymore, and she doesn't want to be treated as a small role that doesn't need to be taboo, and she is framed and calculated again and again.
She has no illustrious family background and no dependence. is in the capital, except for a few maids around him, he is just alone.
Just like this time when her father had an accident, she was not only abandoned by the Wei State Mansion lightly, but even her nominal mother's Jingyang Marquis Mansion was cut off from her.
Not only did she not have a way to help, but she even had no one to ask for except Qin Feng.
Countless thoughts flashed in his heart, Xie Ning couldn't help lowering his eyes, and only after a moment did he raise his head again and whisper to Qin Feng: "I understand what you mean, but which is more important, I naturally know in my heart." This matter is important, but my father's safety is even more important. As for the female officer exam, it will be the same if you take the exam again in three years, I ...... Your mind has been decided, so don't stop it. ”
"Heh," Qin Feng chuckled, a look of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and he shook his head and said, "How can you hide your thoughts from me?" In my opinion, if I don't want you at this time, when I leave the capital, you will take the silver you won from the gambling house as a plate and go to Shu yourself. ”
Not wanting that the plan in his heart had already been seen through by him, Xie Ning looked at Qin Feng in a daze, but he was indescribably shocked in his heart, and when he came back to his senses, he didn't deny it, "Since you know, why do you obstruct it?" ”
Qin Feng already knew her plan, if he promised him, he would naturally be happy, but if he insisted on not letting him follow, then Xie Ning would be even more difficult if he wanted to sneak out of the city again.
Xie Ning secretly gritted her teeth, she was very nervous in her heart, but her eyes looked at Qin Feng without blinking, but she ******** asked the other party to give her a satisfactory answer.
Looking at each other, Rao is Qin Feng had already made a decision in his heart, and he couldn't help but be a little shaken at this time.
After calming down slightly, Qin Feng said lightly: "It's not that I won't let you go, and I'm not worried about your safety, it's just that the matter of Shu is far more important than what you are doing now." ”
Xie Ning's eyes flashed, and he bit his lip unconsciously, but he didn't make a sound.
Seeing this, Qin Feng's expression couldn't help but ease for three points, like the ice and snow gradually melting outside the window at this time, there was a kind of slow warmth.
"The affairs of Shu are really not as strict as you think, A-Ning, you have to believe me."
Qin Feng's words fell into her ears word by word, making Xie Ning feel a little relieved for no reason, and she subconsciously looked at the other party, just bumping into the other party's lips and teeth.
"You don't have to worry about General Xie, I will definitely guarantee that he is safe and sound."
Qin Feng had a solemn look on his face, and he could see that Xie Ning was moved in his heart.
She naturally trusts the other party and believes in the other party's promises. But these things should not have been done by him, which made him run for them, and Shainin felt uneasy.
As if seeing what Xie Ning was thinking, Qin Feng suddenly raised his lips and smiled: "Don't worry." After all, this is the trouble I caused. I'll be sure to take care of it. ”
Obviously, they didn't even know who was behind the scenes, so why did Qin Feng have to take the matter to himself? Xie Ning saw Qin Feng's intention to comfort him, but he still couldn't help but ask out loud: "Qin Ziyue, do you still have something to hide from me?" ”
These words were just blurted out subconsciously. But even she herself couldn't tell when she changed her name to Qin Feng, from Qin Ziyue, who just secretly called out in private, to Qin Ziyue, who dared to call out in person.
Maybe it's just because she suddenly feels that the other party no longer looks like her brother. It's not my brother. What could it be?
Shainin didn't know.
Qin Feng looked at Xie Ning with a blank face, and couldn't tell that she was in a trance. It's just that although he didn't know what Xie Ning was thinking at this time, he couldn't help but think about it secretly.
He personally promised Shainin that he would never lie to her again in the future. It was a hard promise, especially in the current situation, especially when he had gone to great lengths to protect Shainin.
But when he had promised, he would not break his promise. There are some things that Shainin doesn't ask, he can not say. But since Xie Ning mentioned it, he won't hide her in the dark anymore like before.
Last time, after Shainin knew that he had something to hide. Qin Feng still remembered the look on him who came to confront him.
He didn't want to make Shainin sad anymore.
Putting away the thoughts in his heart, Qin Feng raised his eyes to look at Xie Ning, and confessed calmly: "Yes, I do have something to hide from you." ”
Xie Ning's guess was just an instinct in her heart, and in fact, she was not very sure of it in her heart. Now that she has been affirmed by Qin Feng himself, she can't help but make her heart skip a beat.
But seeing that Qin Feng had a calm look on his face, secretly thinking that what he said next might not be a bad thing, the tension in Xie Ning's heart subsided slightly, so he let out a sigh of relief and said, "If it has something to do with me." Please speak up. ”
Seeing that her expression was relaxed, Qin Feng smiled without a trace, except for a touch of pleasure hidden in his eyes, his face was still unrevealed. As if nothing happened, he said: "This matter is a long story, let's go to the tearoom and sit down for a while." You have just recovered from a serious illness, you can't eat meat, and you can't eat porridge and side dishes. Now that it's almost time to eat, you might as well eat two pieces of mung bean cake to cushion your stomach. ”
No wonder today's morning is so light! She thought it was the palace that had changed the cook.
After being reminded by Qin Feng, Fang remembered that he was sick, and Xie Ning couldn't help but show a sudden look. After complaining to himself, he obediently followed Qin Feng to the teahouse.
There were maids in the hall who accompanied them, and after preparing everything properly, they withdrew one after another at Qin Feng's signal.
For a while, there were only the two of them left in the hall, Xie Ning finally waited for the figure of the last maid to disappear, and didn't care about getting any refreshments on the table, so he looked straight at Qin Feng and said, "What are you hiding from me, now you can finally say it." ”
Qin Feng smiled slightly, picked up a piece of white cake and handed it to Xie Ning, and then said unhurriedly: "I told you earlier that the reason why General Xie was affected for no reason this time was because of me. Because I'm so close to you, they mistake your dad for my confidant. Actually, it's not the case-A-Ning, do you know who the dark line I really planted in Shu is who? ”
Qin Feng had a genuine smile on his face, but Xie Ning couldn't help but be confused when he listened, and couldn't think of anything for a while, but when he saw Qin Feng's calm attitude, he couldn't help but move in his heart, and said tentatively: "Can I recognize this person?" ”
Qin Feng nodded unabashedly with a smile in his eyes.
Seeing this, Xie Ning became more and more confused in his heart, and he had no clue in his mind, so he could only frown and think: "This person is naturally not my father, but since you mentioned it to me, it must be someone who has a close relationship with me, and has crossed paths with you—could it be that we are from the Pengyong Army?" ”
"Not bad." Qin Feng smiled at the corner of his mouth.
With Qin Feng's affirmation, a bold conjecture appeared in Xie Ning's heart-"It can't be Uncle Pei, right?" ”
"It's Captain Pei," Qin Feng motioned for Xie Ning to eat the pastry in his hand, and explained to her calmly: "My master once instructed him in martial arts before his death, so the two of us didn't have any intersection before. ”
I see.
After listening to Qin Feng's explanation, Xie Ning put away the surprised look on his face and said with a clear expression: "No wonder before I entered Beijing, I met you at the tea house next to the post road. Now that I think about it, I'm afraid it was deliberately arranged by you and Uncle Pei. ”
A hint of interest flashed in Qin Feng's eyes, and he said without denying it: "I received the news that he was about to enter Beijing, and I just waited there deliberately." I never thought I'd see you there. ”
I don't know whether it was intentional or not, the tone of the last sentence was stretched very long by Qin Feng.
Hearing the hint in Qin Feng's words, Rao is Xie Ning has always been unruly, and his face couldn't help but burn at this time.
However, Qin Feng was tempted by her, and it was expected that it should be before and after the Ruyi Fang incident. As for when the two first met, there were many busy people, and Qin Feng should not have any impression of her. On the contrary, she was very surprised when she saw Qin Feng, and even mistook the other party for an immortal.
Now that I think about it, it's a little funny.
The corners of Xie Ning's mouth curved, and his eyes overflowed with an uncontrollable smile.
Seeing this, Qin Feng couldn't help but say in his heart: "What are you laughing at?" ”
"It's nothing," Xie Ning hurriedly said, and there was something in his voice that wanted to cover it up, "It's just a casual smile." ”
"Oh," Qin Feng nodded, didn't ask any more, just couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth, and continued in a very good mood: "The reason for this, now you know it." Captain Pei once delivered the news of Shu for me, and General Xie was also burdened by me when he encountered this difficulty. As I told you before, I'm not sure who is behind the scenes. But when you think about it in hindsight, there are only two possibilities. ”
Xie Ning looked at Qin Feng thoughtfully, and then followed his words and analyzed: "King Xuan has always been unfriendly with you, not to mention that your trip to Shu this time is also due to him." I think this matter is generally inseparable from him. It's just another possibility, but who are you referring to? ”
"Qin Xi is indeed very likely," After Xie Ning's words landed, Qin Feng continued without pause: "Except for him, what I suspect is the other force. ”
After a slight pause in his voice, Qin Feng calmly picked up the tea cup on the table, and after taking a sip, he continued: "The Yandi bandits who were cleared by me before, they have a grudge against me in their hearts. Taking the opportunity to cut off one of my arms can be regarded as a cause for the incident. (To be continued.) )
P: I almost can't get up in the background today, huh~
