"The daughter of the Dou family, the cousin Qing'e." These words were thrown into Qin Yunuan's ears clearly and loudly, she firmly believed that Qin Qian, who was sitting in front of him, must have heard it more clearly, no wonder today's Qin Yunxiang looked so confident, no wonder today's Qin Linfeng has returned to his arrogance before being placed under house arrest, everything is just because their backbone, their mother, Dou Qing'e, who has been in charge of the Qin family for many years, is coming back.

And she came back under the light of the old princess of Ning Wangfu, Qin Yunuan didn't even know that the old princess had an old woman who was related to the Dou family.

Seeing Princess Ning hesitate for a moment, the old princess seemed to be a little unhappy: "What? Don't agree? Alas, my old man just wanted someone to talk to. ”

"Of course not," Princess Ning hurriedly smiled, her eyes glanced at Qin Qian, who was already stunned, "It's just that this Dou family is the wife of Qin Taiwei's famous family, mother, if you force someone to live in Ning Wangfu, is it inconvenient?" ”

"Yes," King Ning also modestly helped Princess Ning, "Although it is said that the mother is in a happy mood when she meets the daughter of the deceased, and the son should not say much, but we should always take into account the eagerness and longing of Taiwei Qin who has not seen his wife for a long time, and the mother ......." ”

"It's simple," before King Ning finished speaking, the old princess just grabbed the conversation quickly, "It's okay to let her go back to the Taiwei Mansion, when I want to find someone to talk to me, I will invite her to come over the mansion as a guest, so it's okay." ”

The simple Princess Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief, she still really thought that the old princess was playing with her for a while, and she was going to forcibly kidnap other people's wives to come over as companions, she smiled and said: "It's best for my mother to think like this, and my daughter-in-law will also take time to accompany my mother in the future." ”

King Ning followed: "The son will also accompany his mother more." ”

For a time, Leng Chang'an, Leng Changxuan, Ruan Ruyi, and King Ning's side concubines and concubines all echoed the Tao one by one, and there was a scene of family harmony.

But Qin Yunuan clearly knew that letting Dou Qing'e return to the Qin family was only afraid that it was the real purpose of the old princess, the old princess was to accompany the old princess to fight the country and make meritorious military achievements, her vision and strategy are really different from ordinary people, the so-called ginger is still old and spicy, and the old princess's move is really unexpected.

"Lord Qin," the old princess said gracefully towards Qin, "I hope to forgive me for taking your lady back rashly this time." The old princess also indirectly reminded Qin Zhen that Dou Qing'e is the person she wants to take care of, whether it is now or in the future, as long as she is there, the Qin family must have a place for Dou Qing'e to stand.

"It's okay," Qin Zhi also maintained his elegance on the surface, and even forced a look of joy, "I have been thinking about when to bring my wife back to the family reunion, but I don't know how Madame's body is recuperating, and this time it is thanks to the old lady's care." ”

While speaking, Dou Qing'e, who had left the Taiwei Mansion for several months at the other end of the banquet, was led by the maid into the center of the banquet.

Dou Qing'e was wearing a plain dress, first thanked the old princess for taking care of her in the Guoan Temple, and then greeted Qin, glanced at Qin Linfeng and Qin Yunxiang, but walked straight to Qin Yunuan's seat, her lips opened lightly, and her words fluttered like a mountain breeze.

"Third girl, we may not have seen each other for a long time."

Qin Yunuan raised her eyes slightly, looked at Dou Qing'e's faintly proud appearance, and suddenly smiled warmly: "Yes, since your mother, you got seriously ill and went to the temple to recuperate, there is no mother in the house, and it is really a lot less lively." "It's a lot less troublesome.

"Don't worry," Dou Qing'e leaned down lightly and whispered in Qin Yunuan's ear, "In the future, the Qin family will definitely be more lively than in the past." ”

After finishing speaking, Qin Yunxiang, who had not been on the wheel to tell Dou Qing'e about the parting feelings of mother and daughter, immediately showed an anxious look of the youngest daughter's family, and called Dou Qing'e over, and the mother and daughter wanted to speak, when a male voice that sounded Ling Ran interrupted this slightly bizarre picture with a bit of shock.

"Mrs. Qin, this is my mother's birthday banquet, not a boudoir for your mother and daughter to talk about, if you have anything to say, leave it for later." Leng Changxi looked at Dou Qing'e sideways, there was an irresistible majesty in his cold eyes, he had never cared about these inner house affairs, but because of Qin Yunuan, he knew a little about the affairs of the Qin family.

He doesn't like Dou Qing'e, Qin Yunxiang, and Qin Linfeng, the three guys who have a nest of snakes and rats, look, it just so happens that his Yu Nuan doesn't like it either, he and her are really a good match.

After a small interlude, the banquet was held as usual, followed by the music jointly prepared by several ladies, the long-pitched guzheng and the light and wonderful transverse flute, the beautiful music seemed to flow in everyone's heart, gentle and comfortable.

And Qin Yunuan also learned from Fang Ziying about the relationship between the old princess of Ning Wangfu and the Dou family.

"Actually, it's just an agreement," Fang Ziying's original words were like this, "The old prince was not very lost when he followed the emperor to quell the rebellion in the south, and was later rescued by the Dou family's team, when Dou Shaochun learned that the prince who followed the army to quell the chaos, not only personally escorted the old prince back to the camp, but also sent silver ten thousand taels as a military salary, the old prince and the emperor were very moved, and the emperor gave the Dou family a plaque of loyalty, which is why the Dou family has been developing to this day, and the old prince is promise, In the future, if the descendants of the Dou family have something to ask for, just find the Jingzhong Ning Palace, and if they can help, they will definitely help. ”

And Dou Shaochun is Dou Qing'e's biological father.

Qin Yunuan savored the meaning, nodded and said: "So the old man in the old princess's mouth is actually just the old man of the Dou family who has helped the old prince recently, and the old prince and the Dou family have no other entanglements. ”

"Probably," Fang Ziying nodded, "At that time, it was a troubled time, it was not easy to save each other so much, and the older generation is the one who values commitment the most, and the old princess can come forward to help Mrs. Qin like this, probably just to repay a wish for the old prince." ”

Hmph, Qin Yunuan has a bottom in her heart, it seems that the alliance between the old princess and Dou Qing'e is not as solid as she imagined at first, Dou Qing'e can invite the old princess, the promise of the year is one thing, and the reason why she was driven to the temple must have made it up, and it can't be said that she did something wrong and was punished.

Looking at Dou Qing'e, who was talking and laughing and feasting in the distance, with a ruddy face, maybe she didn't know that the concubine she wanted to destroy had already found a way to break through the defense line at this moment.

Halfway through the banquet, the dishes were finally ready, and the table was full of food and wine, but some people were absent-minded and didn't know the taste of food.

Qin Yunuan's opposite happened to be Leng Suxin, the only lady of the Leng family who "carved out of a mold with her temper and Leng Changxi" in Fang Ziying's mouth, Leng Suxin's expression was sorrowful, as if she hated such a party scene very much, and she didn't even move the cup and dim sum in front of her, until the dancing girl left the stage, she also suddenly stood up, and when there were many people, she went directly out of the banquet.

I don't know if I have an inexplicable sense of closeness to this kind of cold-tempered person, Qin Yunuan's eyes involuntarily followed the past, and saw that Leng Suxin accidentally bumped into a maid serving vegetables when he left in a hurry, and the handkerchief in his arms fell to the ground inadvertently, and the white handkerchief embroidered with a pair of butterflies happened to fall not far from Qin Yunuan.

Fang Ziying was a little drunk, and had been helped by the maidservant to rest in the small pavilion near the lake, and there was no one to talk to her, and the atmosphere at the banquet was getting more and more drunk, Qin Yunuan simply got up and picked up the handkerchief, and followed Leng Suxin's steps to the back of the courtyard.

There was no one all the way, most of the family members and maids were busy in front, and walked away a hundred meters away, Qin Yunuan finally felt that the depressing atmosphere at the banquet had dissipated, and the wind of the early summer night was blowing, with the coolness of water vapor on his cheeks, moist and comfortable.

The strange thing is that Leng Suxin, who had obviously walked a few steps earlier, didn't see her figure as soon as she entered the courtyard.

Suddenly, a strange wind blew, and the air seemed to smell of rust.

It's the smell of blood! And by the time Qin Yunuan reacted, a cold and piercing blade had already reached her neck, and the feeling of coldness and horror had soaked into the bone marrow, as if it was suppressing Qin Yunuan's breathing.

"Who is it?" Qin Yunuan remained stiff, she seemed to be able to feel the intermittent breathing of the person behind her, the smell of rust came from this person, almost instantly, Qin Yunuan could tell that this person was injured.

But sometimes, a wounded wolf is more terrible than a ferocious tiger.

"This is Ning Wangfu, do you know who I am?" Qin Yunuan decided to fish in troubled waters, if she didn't say it, maybe this person would mistakenly think that she was someone from King Ning's mansion, and the identity of the emperor's relatives in King Ning's mansion was better than the three girls of the Qin family.

But the person behind him didn't seem to appreciate it at all, he smiled sinisterly, and his voice was like a hoarse duck making a final struggle: "I know who you are, Qin Yunuan, the third girl of Qin, I just came to wait for you, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have bothered so much." ”

"Who the hell are you?" Qin Yunuan frowned, she had already begun to calculate the possibility of her survival, the coldness of the blade on her neck seemed to paralyze her ability to think, but Qin Yunuan always firmly believed in one thing, she wanted to live! For the sake of Baochuan, she must also live!

"Who am I?" The man behind him smiled hoarsely, but did not answer, faintly he seemed to get some information from the shaking of the surrounding bushes, suddenly reached out and pointed at Qin Yunuan's acupoint, and carried Qin Yunuan on his shoulder with his backhand, his body was as light as a flying swallow, and he jumped directly onto the ridge with Qin Yunuan, and ran quickly towards a forest in the east of King Ning's mansion.
