"Don't worry, although I don't have to go to the military department these days, I can also ask someone I know to pay attention to the report from Yandi for me. If there is any news, I will send someone to inform me immediately. ”

"Okay, then I'll leave this matter to Uncle Pei."

After discussing the matter of the report with Uncle Pei, Xie Ning secretly calculated that it had been a long time, and he was worried about the people who were secretly watching at the door, so he had no intention of staying longer, and said goodbye: "Uncle Pei, I'll go back first." As for the property, you don't have to worry, I'll take care of it myself. ”

Hearing this, Pei Xinghai showed a displeased look on his face, pulled Xie Ning's sleeve and pulled her back, pressed her to the seat with both arms, and said extremely impatiently: "Girl, what are you in a hurry, Uncle Pei, I still haven't said anything." is that there is really King Xuan's hands outside, in broad daylight, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, even if he wants to make a move, how can he bear you? It's only been a long time since I've seen you, and you've become so timid. ”

Xie Ning was not provoked by him, raised his hand and patted off the hand on his shoulder, blinked his eyes, and said mischievously: "How can I be cowardly?" Do you want me to jump in when I know he's set a trap? ”

"I'm good at strong words," Pei Xinghai glared at her helplessly, and then asked rhetorically: "If you can hide for a while, you can't hide for a lifetime." Why, are you still planning to stay in your room and not go out? ”

"Poof-" Xie Ning was a little surprised and lost his mind, his eyes were cast towards Pei Xinghai, but he was inexplicably a little weak-hearted, and just secretly peeked at his expression. After a while, he said loudly: "Naturally not, it's just that the turmoil on the day King An saw him off has not passed, and King Xuan is angry with me, and he may blame me for his failure." I stayed in the house, it wasn't like I had nothing to do, and there was no need to go out to touch the brow of King Xuan's big Buddha. ”

In addition, there is another reason that she does not dare to say or admit. Qin Feng is not in the capital, she is alone, where can she be called by a prince in the same hall. The identity and status are there, if it weren't for Qin Feng's help, even if Qin Xi was unwilling to make his coercion public, on the day of the banquet in King An's Mansion, how could Xie Ning retreat so easily?

She knew that if it weren't for Qin Feng's protection, just with her arrogant temperament and reckless recklessness, she would have been retaliated against by Qin Xi many times.

Although she has grown so big, it is a little embarrassing that she still needs to be protected by others, but she can't deny it. Just because that's exactly what happened.

She didn't want Qin Feng to clean up the mess she had repeatedly provoked, but when it came to a critical moment, these concerns would always be left behind by her. At the end of the day, she's still too impulsive.

While Xie Ning was reflecting, Pei Xinghai, who was sitting opposite her, was also thinking about something. I saw him staring at Xie Ning for a long time, but his eyes suddenly lit up, and he suddenly said: "If you can't go out, you won't go out." I don't know where your old wits have gone. In this way, tomorrow you disguise yourself and leave early to look for me at the post house, and then I will lead you to see your Xie family's shop. What do you think? ”

Xie Ning tugged at the corners of his mouth speechlessly, without any doubt that the 'disguise' in Pei Xinghai's words just now was to ask her to disguise herself as a man and go out with him. In this regard, Shainin has no objection, but what she is worried about is another thing.

"But what about the shopkeeper and buddy in our Xie shop? They can't know that there is only one young lady in the Xie family, right? Xie Ning bit the word 'Miss' at the end of the sentence very hard, and looked at Pei Xinghai with a smile.

Pei Xinghai was stunned for a long time before he said: "In my opinion, King Xuan will not send people to keep an eye on the streets and alleys in order to grasp your whereabouts." Why don't you come here in men's clothes first, and then I'll take you to the tailor's shop to buy new clothes to change into, how about that? ”

It seems that this is the only way to go. It's a bit of a hassle, but it doesn't cause any trouble. Xie Ning nodded, and then couldn't help but say to Pei Xinghai: "Uncle Pei, I'm doing well in the Hou Mansion now, you don't have to worry." There's no urgency in this matter, you can let me do it myself in the future, so why take the risk? ”

Pei Xinghai glanced at her, and said in a serious voice: "As a son and daughter, you can't live up to Gao Tang's wishes. Your father wrote last time, specifically instructing me to complete this matter before I leave Beijing. If I can't do it, I don't know how worried your father will be, and I don't know how long your father will be talking in my ear after returning to Shudi. ”

When Xie Ning heard this, thinking of Father Xie, who was thousands of miles away from her, his heart couldn't help but become sour, tears rolled, and his eyes almost turned red, but when he heard Pei Xinghai's whining joke, he immediately burst into tears and laughed, and retorted: "My father won't talk to others, Uncle Pei wants to arrange people, and he must think about it in advance." ”

Pei Xinghai looked helpless, but a smile appeared in his eyes, as if he was threatened by Xie Ning's words, and hurriedly compromised: "Okay, okay, what you said is." ”

Xie Ning bent his eyes proudly, curled the corners of his mouth and said, "It's pretty much the same." ”

"That's right," I don't know what Pei Xinghai suddenly thought, with a sudden look on his face, he didn't joke with Xie Ning anymore, and turned to business, "Even if the report from Shudi is about to arrive, I don't know if your father can take advantage of this convenience to bring a letter." ”

Xie Ning looked at Pei Xinghai with a pair of apricot eyes, and hurriedly confirmed: "Really? Uncle Pei, if there is really a letter from my father, you must send someone to deliver it quickly. ”

Pei Xinghai nodded slightly, infected by Xie Ning's joy, and his tone was a little cheerful, "It's not the first letter sent, you are so happy?" ”

"That's pretty much it," Xie Ning couldn't help but be a little depressed, "Shu and Kyoto are already thousands of miles apart, and the road is not easy to walk, so it is even more difficult to deliver the news as soon as possible." Uncle Pei, you don't know, since I entered the capital, I have only received a letter from my father, but there are only a few words on the letter, and there are not a few words. ”

Since she was a child, this is the first time she has left Shudi and her father. No matter how independent Xie Ning is, he also has an indelible feeling of longing, but he has nowhere to send.

"Shu is closed, and it is indeed not easy to exchange letters," Pei Xinghai patted Xie Ning's head lightly and said with relief: "If your father has a letter, I guarantee that you will receive it immediately." ”

Putting down the faint sorrow in his heart, Xie Ning responded with a smile: "Okay, then I will thank you Uncle Pei first." ”

Pei Xinghai also laughed, and asked instead, "When are you free?" Let's set a date first, and then meet at the door of the post house first, and then I'll take you around the shop. ”
