After Bai Ying returned to the room, she sat cross-legged on the bed and thought for a while, even if she didn't tell Fu Nanqi, with his eyes in the palace, she would soon know that Fu Yunqi came to Jingyu Palace to find her.

It is better to take the initiative to be honest and honest, which is also an attitude.

She's like this, if he's still jealous, then there's no reason to talk about it, right?

Before Bai Ying could grind and write a letter, the door was pushed open, and Concubine Jing walked in with a solemn expression, her tone a little anxious: "What did you say to Fu Yunqi?" ”

Bai Ying stood up, "He asked me if I liked Fu Nanqi, and I said yes, don't worry, King Qijun won't say it......"

"Not this."

Bai Ying quietly moved the book to cover the letter paper that had not started to write, and walked around the desk to Concubine Jing, "What's the matter?" ”

Concubine Jing paused and said, "In the future, you don't have to deal with Fu Yunqi anymore." ”

“？” The face of the concubine changes when she says it.

"Is that what happened?"

"Nothing."

Bai Ying shook his head and said, "It was you who said he was good before, and now it is you who don't let me associate with him." ”

Concubine Jing didn't look at her angrily, thinking of the news she had just received, a trace of disgust appeared in her eyes, and Bai Ying felt more and more strange in her eyes.

What did Fu Yunqi do...... Or did Concubine Zhao do something?

"The Henghe River is the line, divided into two realms, Dayu is in the south, and the barbarians are in the north, and we have a deep blood feud with them. You know this, right? ”

Bai Ying nodded: "Mr. said it when he was teaching." ”

She looked at Concubine Jing's cold eyes, and she had a bad premonition in her heart.

She remembered that Fu Nanqi had told her about the old things of the North family before, the North family was ordered to kill the enemy, nearly 100 people were fighting bloodily for the emperor on the battlefield, the men were extremely brave, the women were unparalleled in strategy, and even the domestic servants had the incomparable loyalty of others, and the top and bottom complemented each other, seeing that the dawn was approaching, but in the end, they died in the hands of their own people in the rear.

Nearly 100 people and 30,000 soldiers of the North family were wiped out.

The emperor was furious, but he only reprimanded the Bei family for being incompetent, and did not blame An Guogong, who managed the grain and grass behind.

Bai Ying conspiratorically thought, in the original situation, Concubine Zhao's father was An Guogong, was he really incompetent, or did he do it on purpose?

But...... No matter how personal grievances are, they won't really be so brainless to be involved in such a major national event, right?

The charge of treason, was it not the white lord of An Guogong at that time, and he was responsible for it?

Bai Ying's brows tightened, and he heard Concubine Jing say: "Huo Shi found out that An Guogong had business dealings with barbarians in private. ”

Well???

Bai Ying asked, "Is there no law for Da Yu to prohibit us from doing business with barbarians?" ”

Concubine Jing said coldly: "I didn't say it, but the barbarians took a city from us decades ago and killed hundreds of thousands of city citizens, and there has never been reconciliation in this kind of blood feud until now, except for fools, who doesn't count in their hearts?" Even the imperial merchants who traveled from south to north would not forget their hatred and do business with barbarians for the sake of those interests. ”

"......," Bai Ying pondered, "Where did the second brother learn about it?" What kind of business do they do? ”

Concubine Jing's expression was even colder, "When Huo Shi took his daughter-in-law out to go out, he found that there were more than a dozen horses in the small village outside the city under the name of Duchess An Guo, all of which were barbarians, and they were well-trained war horses. ”

Bai Ying's eyes widened: "They trade horses with the barbarians?!" ”

"It's not a troubled time now, what are they doing raising horses...... the words stopped abruptly, Bai Ying heard Concubine Jing sneer, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes seemed to come alive with mockery, "What are you doing?" Naturally, I want to be the emperor's mother. ”

According to Huo Shi, although there are not many horses, they are all well-trained war horses, which are trained by the royal family in Northern Xinjiang, and one can be sold for a price of more than 100,000 taels, but they are never easily sold out.

What Concubine Jing was most curious about was what kind of chips An Guogong used to make this business.

Steed...... I'm afraid Dayu's war horses are not as good as the dozen or so that An Guogong bought!

What else does he want to do next? Raising a private army?

"I don't know what to do!"

Bai Ying hadn't had much contact with this aspect, she felt a little complicated, looked at Concubine Jing in a daze, and asked, "Is this considered a traitor to the enemy?" ”

"What do you say?"

"Then, that ......," Bai Ying plucked up his courage and said, "Can I talk to Fu Nanqi and my brother?" ”

Bai Ying was nervous, and she was afraid that Concubine Jing would not let her get involved in this matter. Unexpectedly, Concubine Jing only frowned, quickly let go again, and said, "You go, take care of your own proportions, don't leak it out easily, the stakes are very high, and you can't startle the snake for the time being." ”

Bai Ying breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, Ah Ying wrote it down." ”

Bai Ying can probably understand Concubine Jing's thoughts, everyone has ambitions, and it is understandable that all forces in the struggle for the throne show their magical powers for their loyal masters. Even if King Liang puts an old minister on King Qijun's side into prison today, and King Qin beheads King Anjun's right-hand man tomorrow, these are not unusual!

However, such a thing as collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country that touches the bottom line must not be done!

The horses on the little Zhuangzi of the Duchess of Anguo are indeed the war horses in the royal family of the barbarians in Northern Xinjiang, this is a fact and irrefutable.

Even if he doesn't have a different heart, he can't just trade.

Talking to Fu Nanqi is not to show that the Huo family is standing in line with King Qin, but thinking that the northern family was full of heroes and martyrs but died like this, Concubine Jing couldn't bear it, and it happened that Fu Nanqi had the ability, so she gave him this clue and asked her to check it herself.

told Shen Yan because Shen Yan and Fu Yunqi had a good personal relationship. Although Concubine Jing was more inclined to Fu Yunqi's guess that she didn't know anything, she still hoped to make the people in Huainan Palace's palace a little alert.

As the saying goes, you can't have the heart to harm others, and you can't have the heart to prevent people.

If he didn't do anything, he would be marked as the king of Qijun...... It's a bit too miserable.

It's miserable, it's still Bai Ying's biological father and brother, and Yao Yiyi is Bai Ying's friend, so she can't stand by and watch.

Bai Ying ran to the Huainan Mansion as fast as possible, but unfortunately Shen Yan and Yao Yiyi went to the Yaoguo Mansion, and the Huainan Princess also went back to the Qin family, and the Huainan King was about to go out.

As soon as Bai Ying learned from Uncle Guan that Shen Yan and they were not at home, he collided head-on with King Huainan.

King Huainan is only thirty-six now, dressed in blue clothes, his appearance is good-looking, and he has a temperament that Shen Yan does not have, from an outsider's point of view, it can be said that he is very tasteful.

But the key is......

Bai Ying, she is not an outsider when she steps on a horse!

In terms of blood, they are biological father and daughter.

After getting along some time ago, Bai Ying and Shen Yan had the best relationship, followed by Princess Huainan, and as for King Huainan...... They rarely see each other, and more often they eat together at the dinner table.

King Huainan is calm but not silent, in fact, he is exquisite, with IQ and EQ that are difficult for ordinary people to achieve, otherwise he would not be good with the emperor from childhood to adulthood, and he is still one of the emperor's most trusted people.

But when he faced Bai Ying, he couldn't say much, as smart as he was, how could he not feel Bai Ying's alienation and resentment towards him.

It's just that now, King Huainan looked at the hands behind his back in front of him pinching each other's expressions slightly unnatural, more restrained little girls, his eyes became more and more gentle, and he asked in a soft tone: "Is there anything important?" ”

"I didn't ...... I'll go back first, and I'll come back when my brother comes back. Bai Ying lowered her head and didn't look at King Huainan, saying this, she slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to turn around, when King Huainan suddenly stopped her, "Ying'er." ”

Qin Lao Taijun shouted Bai Yingying, Shu Mama shouted Bai Yingying, Concubine Jing called Bai Ying, Princess Huainan sometimes shouted Ah Ying, sometimes shouted Ying'er, sometimes shouted Yingying, and more people, like Huaiyang County Lord Yao Yiyi Qingfeng National Master Fu Nanqi, they all shouted "Ah Ying".

Bai Ying paused, feeling that it was too rude to pretend not to hear, so he turned around and said politely: "Is there something wrong with you?" ”

King Huainan has seen the little girl coquettish in front of Shen Yan, and he has also seen her well-behaved and caring behavior in front of his wife, as well as smiling with Yao Yiyi, lively and cute.

He smiled bitterly in his heart, and his tone was gentle: "Ying'er, if you have something you can't solve, you might as well talk to me." ”

After a pause, King Huainan's gaze fell on Bai Ying gently, "After all, I'm your father, aren't I?" ”

*

Bai Ying didn't know what he thought, so he followed King Huainan to his study.

Isn't it embarrassing!

"Ying'er?" The gentle voice of the King of Huainan disrupted Bai Ying's thoughts.

She raised her head, fidgeting, still very reserved: "I'd better wait for my brother to come back." ”

King Huainan was very helpless, "Your brother will have two hours to go home." ”

"Oh......"

King Huainan heard the loss in the little girl's tone.

He remembered the first time they met, Bai Ying and Qin Hua were standing outside Princess Huainan's room, the little girl was much thinner than now, and her face was as pale as paper, at that time, he was worried about his wife, and he didn't have the heart to share it with others at all, just glanced at it casually, where would he know that the person standing behind Qin Hua was his own daughter Shen Ling.

Speaking of which, none of them are as powerful as Princess Huainan, but at a glance, they recognized their daughter.

Unfortunately, no one believed it at all.

Uncle Guan knocked on the door, walked in and delivered a plate of pastries, smiled lovingly at Bai Ying, nodded, and went out again.

"Ying'er." King Huainan said gently, "I know you complain about my neglect of your brother over the years. ”

"Didn't ...... either" Bai Ying looked up at him, and his head quickly drooped again.

The king of Huainan looked at her in amazement, and she said, "At first, there was ...... Figured it out later. For you, the most important thing is your mother's mother, and for me, the closest thing is my brother, but I just stand on my own side, and there is no one right or wrong. ”

King Huainan was in a complicated mood.

After Bai Ying finished saying that, he let go of a little, and took advantage of the present moment to explain the matter again, and finally said: "Since my brother is a little late to come back, please convey it on your behalf." ”

King Huainan looked solemn, said the word "good", and after Bai Ying walked out a few steps, he said: "Ying'er, when you are free, come back for a meal, Daddy will tell you the person who was harmed back then." ”
