In the evening of the same day, Xiuniang really came to the post house again and was led to Qi Ning's house by Wu Dalin. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The mission was about to leave the next day, so everyone was packing up and getting ready, after all, once they came to the Chu country, everyone wanted to bring some special products back from the Qi country.

On the way to Qi last time, Qi Ning extorted 1,700 taels of silver from that General Meng Jiao Zhou Meng, and Qi Ning let Wu Dalin distribute it equally to the soldiers under him, and each of the two hundred or so people also received a few taels of silver, although the amount was not large, but it was not a small amount for the soldiers.

Qi Ning asked people to purchase some special products for special loading, and Ling Huxu also prepared a small gift for each person, so the soldiers of the mission also gained quite a lot.

Wu Dalin knew that Ling Huxu had sent a beauty to Qi Ning, and he didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing, so after bringing Xiuniang over, he immediately retreated.

Qi Ning let Xiuniang into the house, and saw that she was wearing a purple waist-length skirt, a light cyan narrow-sleeved blouse, and no jewelry, and she was dressed very plainly, but it looked even more delicate and clean, giving people a feeling of small jasper, and the light blue color lined her skin with whiter eyes.

After Xiuniang entered the house, she immediately knelt down, Qi Ning frowned slightly, and took a look, Xiuniang was exquisite, not very tall, but her figure was concave and convex, her chest was full, and the whole person was slightly plump, but it didn't give people any sense of fatness, it turned out that her bones were quite detailed, but her skin was full, so she wouldn't look fat.

As soon as she knelt down, the back of her skirt tightened, her hips propped up, and the lines were very round and full.

Qi Ning raised his hand and said, "You get up, you don't have to kneel." ”

Xiuniang was very obedient and got up, Qi Ning saw that she just took a package, and asked, "This is the luggage you brought with you?" ”

Xiuniang said lightly "um" and said, "This is something that Xiangye rewarded, saying that I can take it." ”

"In fact, what you need, just say it, and you don't have to work hard." Qi Ning thought for a moment before asking, "Are you from Qi State?" ”

Xiuniang hesitated, but finally nodded slightly, and Qi Ning continued to ask, "Then what family do you have?" Do they know that you are going out of the Chu Kingdom? ”

Xiuniang shook her head slightly and said, "It's all gone, it's always been Xiangye's mercy that survived." ”

Qi Ning said: "Don't you have any other relatives?" ”

Xiuniang nodded, but shook her head again, Qi Ning was a little strange, Xiuniang had already explained: "There is an uncle, but ...... I don't know where I am, and I haven't seen it, so it's like nothing. ”

Qi Ning understood and said, "You are from Qi State, and you went to Chu State, but I am afraid that you will not adapt to it." Xiangye is good, I don't want to save his face, but since you are with me now, how I arrange it, Xiangye can't care. ”

Xiuniang lowered her head slightly, with a slight flush on her cheeks, and said: "Xiangye said, he is a person who is born as a Hou Ye, and he is a ghost when he dies, and the slave and maid will serve Hou Ye wholeheartedly in the future." ”

"You didn't get what I meant." Qi Ning sighed and said, "No one wants to be a slave, and neither do you." Xiuniang, I have some silver here. He took out a money bag that he had prepared and gently placed it on the desk: "It's not too much, but you won't have to worry about life in a few years." You take it first, and if you want, you can go back to your hometown and find your uncle, or find someone to marry, and you don't have to be a slave anymore. ”

Xiuniang was delicate, her delicate face showed a slight look of horror, and said, "Master Hou...... Don't you want slaves? ”

Qi Ning smiled: "It's not that you don't want to, it's just that you don't have to be a slave anymore." You are a native of Qi, far away from your homeland, and no one wants to. ”

"I do." Xiuniang said categorically: "Wherever Master Hou goes, Xiuniang will follow him, there is no unwillingness." ”

Qi Ning shook his head and smiled, picked up the money bag and walked over, put it in Xiuniang's hand, and said, "If you listen to me, there will be no mistake." He shouted, "Someone." ”

A person came in from outside, and Qi Ning ordered, "Send this girl out." Thinking of something, he asked, "Can Xiuniang ride a horse?" ”

Xiuniang's face was slightly pale, but she still nodded, and Qi Ning ordered, "Give her a horse." Xiang Xiuniang smiled slightly, and the guard raised his hand and said, "Girl, please!" ”

Xiuniang's red lips opened slightly, and she wanted to say something, but she didn't say it after all, and followed the guard out, Qi Ning was slightly relieved when she saw her leave.

After thinking about it, he still felt that it would be better not to take Xiuniang back, so as not to cause more trouble, and Xiuniang was obviously Ling Huxu's maid, and she had no free body, and she returned her free body this time, not only did she have less trouble, but also did a good deed, and her merit was immeasurable.

Not long after Xiuniang went out, Tao Qian of the Ministry of Rites rushed over and informed him that at dawn tomorrow, the Chu delegation could wait at the Nanshengmen in Lucheng, and the Dongqi family sending team would also meet at the Dongshengmen at that time.

Someone happened to send dinner, Qi Ning left Tao Qian to eat together, although the messenger of the family was the prince Duan Xuan, but Tao Qian, as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, but also to go with the team, he is an old man in the officialdom, he knows the convenience of being with others, and he entertained Qi Ning in the Eastern Qi Dynasty, and when he arrived at the end of the Chu State, Qi Ning would take care of some of them.

is on the wine table, but frequently toasts, he is an old fritter, on the dinner table, never mentioning sensitive topics, that is, this time the two countries got married, but also only complimented, but also praised the Jinyi family for their courage and invincibility.

Qi Ning knew that there was nothing to say about an old fritter like Tao Qian, and after eating, Tao Ganjing said goodbye and left, and just left with his front foot, Li Tang asked to see him outside the door.

After Qi Feng left, Li Tang naturally took charge of Qi Ning's personal safety, and after coming in, Qi Ning put down the bowl and smiled: "Have you eaten?" Would you like to have two drinks together? ”

Li Tang walked over, knowing that the little Hou Ye did not have a frame on weekdays, he was very casual, and said with a smile: "Xie Hou Ye, I have already used it." He hesitated, and then stopped.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Li Tang's appearance, Qi Ning frowned and said, "Isn't there something going on again?" ”

The departure is imminent, this is the last night in Lucheng, Qi Ning was worried about an accident on the eve of leaving, Li Tang shook his head, and finally said softly: "Master Hou, that girl .......!" ”

"Girl?" Qi Ning was stunned and asked, "What girl?" ”

Li Tang said: "It's the girl who Hou Ye wants to give her horses." ”

"Oh?" Qi Ning immediately remembered Xiuniang, after Xiuniang left, Tao Qian came over on his hind feet, and he didn't leave until just now, and no one dared to come over to disturb Xiuniang's affairs, and asked, "Did you give her a horse?" Are people gone? ”

Li Tang shook his head and said: "I didn't leave, I just stood outside the post house, like a log, I didn't speak, I carried a package, and she didn't seem to hear anything to her." ”

"She's not leaving?" Qi Ning frowned.

Li Tang nodded and said, "It seems that is what it means." After a pause, he said, "Master Hou, it looks quite pitiful." ”

"You have pity on you." Qi Ning didn't have a good airway.

Li Tang smiled and said, "Master Hou, that person named Xiuniang is not bad looking, and she is also a beauty, why did Master Hou let her leave?" It's also good to stay by your side and pour tea and water, and you may not be able to find one so iconic among the thousands of them. ”

"Do you think you should stay?"

Li Tang sneered and said, "I just said it casually, and I want the Hou Ye to decide." Hou Ye, if you really want to take her back, it's nothing, there are hundreds of people in the Hou Mansion, and there won't be one more person like this. ”

He didn't know that the little marquis had been coveting the third lady, and he was going to do his best to get the third lady, so naturally he couldn't have thought that Qi Ning would take care of Gu Qinghan's feelings, just thinking that a maid was really a harmless little thing.

"You know the." Qi Ning said angrily: "Do you think the things of the Dongqi people are easy to receive?" Let me ask you, what is the intention of Ling Huxu to give me a beauty? ”

Li Tang said: "Isn't it to please Hou Ye?" ”

"Nonsense." Qi Ning glanced at him: "Ling Huxu is the prime minister of Eastern Qi, although the Eastern Qi country is small, but he is a national auxiliary minister, and his status will be below me?" Why is he trying to please me? He walked over and leaned down on the big chair, picked up the tea he had just made, coughed his mouth, and then put down the teacup and said, "To put it mildly, are the two hundred people in our Hou Mansion all clean, I can't say for sure, can we add more people to it?" ”

Li Tang's brows tightened, he was not a stupid person, he understood, and said in a low voice: "Master Hou, are you worried that this Xiu Niang is deliberately trying to insert the eyeliner of our Hou Mansion into our Hou Mansion?" ”

"It may also be the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." Qi Ning said: "But be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, and it will not be wrong to watch out for some." ”

Li Tang said: "Master Hou is thoughtful, I'll go over now and let the guards drive her away." He was about to leave, but was stopped by Qi Ning.

Qi Ning frowned, groaned slightly, and then said, "You go and call her over." Li Tang said: "Master Hou, don't you mean ......!" Before he finished speaking, seeing Qi Ning glaring at him coldly, he didn't dare to say more, he promised to go down, Qi Ning stopped and said, "Let people come and clean up and prepare another meal." ”

Li Tang understood what Qi Ning meant, and retreated, and someone came over to clean up the leftovers.

Soon Li Tang took Xiuniang to the door, Qi Ning signaled Li Tang to retreat first, beckoned Xiuniang to enter, and then smiled bitterly: "Xiuniang girl, I heard that you are standing outside the post house and have not left?" Why is that? ”

Xiuniang's expression was gloomy, and she said softly: "Back to the Hou Ye's words, slave maid...... There is nowhere to go. ”

"What?" Qi Ning was stunned, and heard the inexplicable sadness from her words, sighed, and said, "Do you think you can't find your uncle?" ”

Xiuniang bit her ruddy lips and lowered her head, she was curvy, her breasts were bulging, and she suddenly knelt on the ground, and said, "Master Hou, the slave should be damned, there are some things, this ...... I shouldn't have hidden it from you, but ...... But he was afraid that Hou Ye would be too careful, so he couldn't help but beg Hou Ye to punish him. ”

When she knelt like this, Qi Ning was a little surprised, reached over, grabbed her arm, but the place where she reached out was also moist and soft, pulled her up, and said, "I don't like others kneeling in front of me." Staring at Xiuniang's clear eyes, she asked, "What are you hiding from me?" ”

Xiuniang was a little ashamed, and said softly: "Master Hou, slave maid...... It's not from the Eastern Qi Dynasty, the slaves and maids are from the Northern Han Dynasty! ”
