Chapter 398: Matters of the Heart
Qi Feng immediately said: "What did Master Hou say about the assassins who have been making a fuss in Chengdu City recently? ”
Qi Ning bowed slightly, Eve was a little puzzled, and asked, "Master Hou, what assassin?" ”
Qi Ning didn't hide it, and immediately said roughly what Li Hongxin said, that is, the concubine Feiqiong of the King of Shu was killed, and he also said that he listened to a few people, and several people were a little surprised, Qi Feng frowned and said: "It turns out that they have all been killed in the Shu Palace, Hou Ye, this assassin is really amazing, and the guards in the Shu Palace's Mansion are really eating rice."

Qi Ning glanced at him, thinking that when Lao Tzu was in the Jinyi Hou Mansion, he was often sneaked into the Hou Mansion, and you guys didn't know anything.
"So, there are indeed throat stabbers in Chengdu?"
Qi Feng nodded and said, "A few of us have been wandering around the city in the past few days, but we have also heard some rumors in the market, saying that there are assassins in Chengdu who have done evil and killed many officials, and some people also say that the assassin is eliminating harm for the people. ”
The guard Li Tang also finally said: "Listening to the tone of those people, it seems that I still have a good impression of the assassin, they say that the assassin killed corrupt officials and corrupt officials to vent his anger for the common people. ”
Qi Ning thought to himself that since ancient times, officials and people have always been opposites, in the eyes of the people, as long as they are officials, few are good, officials are killed, and it is really common for the people to gloat.
"Master Hou, do you think there is something wrong with it?" Qi Feng lowered his voice.
Qi Ning thought for a moment, shook his head, and then said with a smile: "By the way, you have been here for a few days, and you will not find nothing, but if you find out some useful news, it is best to find out some news about the King of Shu and Xichuan Thorn Shi Wei Shutong." ”
Qi Feng said with a smile: "We knew that Master Hou would definitely ask about this, so we haven't been idle in the past few days." He lowered his voice slightly: "As far as I know, the King of Shu is not easy to leave the palace, and people say that he is now eating fasting and reciting Buddha, and there is no dispute with the world." After a pause, he said: "But it is said that the King of Shu will go to Qingcheng Mountain every month to worship the Buddha." ”
"Worship the Buddha?" Qi Ning was puzzled: "Isn't Qingcheng Mountain a Taoist place?" ”
Qi Feng said with a smile: "Qingcheng Mountain does have a Qingcheng view, but the King of Shu donated a Buddhist temple in Qingcheng Mountain, he is the King of Shu, who dares to stop it?" I heard that the temple was built very beautifully, and the king of Shu invited a monk to sit in the temple, the incense was very prosperous, and the king of Shu often went to Qingcheng Mountain to worship the Buddha. ”
"Qingcheng Mountain.......!" Qi Ning was thoughtful.
He knows that Qingcheng Mountain is not far from Chengdu, and he can reach it in half a day.
"What about Wei Shutong?" Qi Ning touched his chin and asked, "How is this Wei Thorn Shi's reputation in Xichuan?" ”
Qi Feng said: "The people are quite praised for Lord Wei's official status, Lord Wei has been quite honest in Xichuan for many years, and his governance is also quite lenient. He lowered his voice and said, "But there is one thing that the people seem to have some criticism of him. ”
"What's the matter?" Qi Ning immediately pricked up his ears.
Qi Feng said softly: "Lord Wei accepted a concubine last year, very low-key, no one knows the origin, originally you were the Xichuan Thorn History, and it is nothing to accept a concubine, but the strange thing is that after that concubine entered the Thorn History Mansion, in just one month, Lord Wei's original wife passed away suddenly. ”
Qi Ning was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "The original wife is dead?" ”
Qi Feng nodded and said: "There is indeed such a thing, but what is going on, the people in the market are not clear, everyone only knows that after the original wife passed away, Lord Wei did not hold a grand funeral, but simply did it, but it was hastily buried in a few days." ”
Eve frowned and said, "There must be something strange in this." ”
Qi Ning also bowed slightly, thoughtfully, and said after a while: "Qi Feng, we may have to stay in Chengdu for a few days, you inquire secretly, see if you can find out more information about Wei Shutong, if possible, check the origin of Wei Shutong's concubine." ”
Qi Feng said: "Yes." ”
"Li Tang, you secretly leave the city tomorrow and go to Qingcheng Mountain to find out what the situation is in the temple where the King of Shu often goes." Qi Ning said softly: "Don't be too reluctant, check when you have the opportunity, and try not to expose your whereabouts." We are now in Chengdu, and we will inevitably be targeted, so we must be cautious and cautious in everything. ”
Qi Feng and the others gave up their hands together.
Qi Ning instructed again, and seeing that it was getting late, he ordered a few people to retreat, but let Eve stay.
When there were only two people left in the room, Eve was a little embarrassed and nervous, although Qi Ning didn't do anything, Eve still felt her heart beating hard, and asked softly, "What else do you have to do?" ”
Qi Ning poured the tea himself, and there were exquisite snacks on the table that had been prepared long ago, he reached out and took Eve's hand, sat down at the table, and said with a smile: "I estimate that you may not be full at night, it just so happens that I haven't eaten anything at night, you accompany me to eat some snacks." Took a piece of pastry and sent it over, Eve reached out to take it, Qi Ning shook her head, and said softly: "You don't have to do it, I'll feed you." ”
Eve was stunned for a moment, and when Qi Ning brought the pastry to her lips, her cheeks suddenly flushed, and under the light, she looked more and more coquettish.
Although the Miao girl loves and hates clearly, a woman is a woman after all, and she is always shy.
Although Eve is not young, and she looks beautiful, but after all, she is the sister of the owner of the Black Rock Cave, although she is the goddess in the hearts of many Miao people, but Eve has a high spirit, and there is no man she likes before, although she is forced to lose herself to Qi Ning, but before that, she has never had too close contact with any man, let alone ambiguous flirting.
Although he had already been married to Qi Ning, but where had such an intimate scene before, seeing Qi Ning staring at him with a smile, his face was a little hot, but Qi Ning said softly: "Taste the taste, watch you eat, I am happy in my heart." ”
Seeing his tenderness and sweetness, Eve's tone was gentle, and finally took a bite gently, Qi Ning smiled, took the pastry, and took a bite of the place where Eve's had bitten.
Eve had a fever on her face, and she didn't know what to say for a while.
Qi Ning held the pastry in one hand and Eve's hand in the other, and said softly: "Sister Eve, now that you know my identity, will what you said not count?" ”
"What..... What words? ”
Qi Ning leaned forward, and even more close to Eve, the two of them were close to each other, close at hand, they could smell each other's smell, although Eve's felt a little embarrassed, but she didn't dodge, compared to the Han family's women who like to refuse and welcome, Eve's family was born in the Miao family, which is obviously more real, and she doesn't know how to flirt.
"You said that if you solved the predicament of Black Rock Ridge, you would ..... You will repay me well. Qi Ning gently kneaded Eve's hand with one hand, and said cheekily: "Are you talking about it?" ”
Eve's immediately understood what Qi Ning meant, her delicate body trembled slightly, her breathing became slightly shorter, and the two peaks that were wrapped trembled with her breathing, although she was a little shy, she still said, "I speak..... Words count, will not ..... Won't lie to you. ”
"It's better to be Sister Eve." Qi Ning laughed, "Sister Eve, you said that after the matter is over, you will give me an explanation, what is the explanation?" ”
Eve thought for a moment before she said, "I'..... I didn't know you were brocade before, so ......! After a pause, he finally said: "I ask you a word, you have to tell the truth, don't lie to me." ”
"No, I'm honest and reliable, and I never lie." Qi Ning swore an oath.
Eve couldn't help but be a little funny, she thought to herself, you deceived me less? I felt that I was several years older than Qi Ning, so I was even more nervous in front of him, so I calmed down slightly before I said, "You and I...... And I have a ......., so you ...... So what are you going to do in the future? ”
When I asked this, I was a little serious.
Qi Ning's expression immediately became solemn, and he said softly: "Sister Eve, are you worried that I am a playboy, and after I get you, I won't care about you in the future?" ”
Eve lowered her head and muttered, "I..... I don't know. ”
In fact, after she knew that Qi Ning was Jinyihou, her mood was very complicated, she seemed to be calm these days, but her heart was not calm.
If Qi Ning is just an ordinary person, Eve and him have the reality of husband and wife, and they don't hate him, according to the rules of the Miao family's girls, of course, they promise each other by themselves.
But Qi Ning is a dignified brocade waiter.
Although Eve is just a Miao girl living in the mountains, she also knows what Jinyihou represents.
Bayali is the owner of the Black Rock Cave, but Eve knows very well that although Bayali has a very high status in the Black Rock Cave, if you really want to talk about it, her status can't even be compared with a small county order, let alone that she is just the sister of the cave master.
Jinyi Hou is one of the four major marquis of the empire, and one of the most glorious families of the Great Chu Empire, and his status is high, he is the leader of the seventy-two caves of the Miao family, King Miao, which is also to be respectful.
Eve knows that the status of herself and Qi Ning is really very different, and the Jinyi Hou Qi family has always been kind to the Black Rock Cave, she knows very well that Mo said that her body was obtained by Jinyihou, even if her life Jinyi Hou wanted to take away, she couldn't say anything.
Because of this, after she knew Qi Ning's identity, she was very worried in her heart.
Although the Miao girl dares to love and hate, she is unusually loyal to love, once her body is sacrificed, that is, if she hands over her whole life, although she was forced by the situation to be asked for by Qi Ning, but that night, Eve knew in her heart that unless she would never marry, she could only give herself to Qi Ning.
But since Qi Ning is a Jinyi candidate, how noble his status is, how can he really marry a daughter of the Miao family back to the Hou Mansion? At least within the scope of her knowledge, those high-ranking officials and nobles of the Han family would never take the Miao family girl in their eyes, and even if they had contact, they only regarded the Miao family girl as a plaything.
In the past few days, she has been very bored in her heart, of course, it is also because of these days of getting along, Qi Ning's behavior makes her feel admiration, and more importantly, if she doesn't marry Qi Ning, if she violates the tradition of the Miao family, every time she thinks of this, she is upset.
Qi Ning is not a fool, even much smarter than most people, what Eve thought in his heart, he was naturally clear, his expression became very serious, put down the pastry in his hand, held Eve's hand with both hands, and said softly: "If you want, from now on, you are my wife, I will marry you into the Hou Mansion, and then protect you for a lifetime!" ”
