Seeing Qin Huaiyuan coming, Qin Yining breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, as if he had a backbone in an instant.

Sun quickly greeted him with tears, hugged Qin Huaiyuan's arm, and choked up like a wronged child: "Master, you are here." ”

"Well, I immediately rushed over after receiving the news from Lord Xu, are you all right?"

Qin Huaiyuan straightened the crooked cloak for the Sun family, and then nodded to the Duchess of Dingguo, and then looked at Qin Yining, seeing that she only had her hair in a slightly messy bun, and although there were a few traces of blood on her body, she was not injured, so she was completely relieved.

Sun sobbed and said: "It's a shame that Sister Yi protects us, and this Yao Gongzi, if there is no Yao Gongzi to help, I'm afraid we will be ...... by now."

Qin Huaiyuan followed Sun's gaze and looked at the young man who had been hit by an arrow in his shoulder and half of his body was stained with blood.

This young man was in his early twenties, tall, very handsome, with slanted sword eyebrows and deep phoenix eyes, and he was an unfathomable figure.

"Young Master Yao, thank you for coming to the rescue." Qin Huaiyuan bowed.

The left hand hidden behind his back tightened and loosened, and he smiled lightly with a pale face: "You're welcome." ”

"Yao Gongzi has an extraordinary bearing and superb martial arts, and the four courtyards with the little girl alone can withstand the attacks of more than twenty assassins, which is really admirable." Qin Huaiyuan's smile was elegant, and his gratitude was sincere, but it was not for nothing that he doubted.

Xiao Xiao has returned to his elegant appearance, covering his wounds and saying with a white face: "In the lower business, I once apprenticed to a teacher when I was a child, but I also owe it to my good guards, otherwise I would not be able to do it alone." ”

When Huzi heard this, he immediately smiled and shook his head: "No, no, no, the young master's martial arts are good." ”

Qin Huaiyuan looked at Huzi again, and saw that his face was immature, with a tiger's head and a tiger's brain, but a pair of eyes were very shrewd, his air pockets were abrupt, and his body was sturdy.

No wonder he is suspicious, this person appeared in Xianguguan so coincidentally, and also saved the lives of his wife and daughter, he always has to find out.

Qin Yining pursed her lips, seeing that their topic had come to an end, she asked worriedly, "Are the ladies in the side courtyard okay?" ”

Duchess Dingguo also looked at it nervously.

When Qin Huaiyuan heard this, he looked at Xu Mao on the side.

Xu Mao said: "Don't worry, Taishi, I have already gone to see it, the ladies in the side courtyard are fine, and the assassin did not go over there, but three of the sisters-in-law in this fairy girl temple died, and two of the sedan chair men who stayed in front of the mountain gate died." Judging from the location of the corpses, the group of assassins was probably heading straight for this courtyard. ”

Xu Mao said, looked at the Duchess of Dingguo suspiciously, and then looked at Liu Xiangu.

The Duchess of Dingguo was very calm, but her face was not very good.

Liu Xiangu had a frightened expression on her face, and she was muttering with her eyes closed, obviously frightened.

Xu Mao's suspicious gaze finally fell on Xiao Xiao and Huzi.

Xiao Xiao frowned slightly and covered his shoulders.

Huzi secretly scolded in his heart: After scolding Qin Huaiyuan for being ungrateful, he scolded the Great Yan Dynasty for not having a good official, and finally scolded Qin Yining for being a red face and a disaster! They could have left a long time ago, so why be in it! It's all to blame for this catastrophe!

And Qin Yining saw Xu Mao's eyes, and frowned like smoke in worry.

She was already sure that this man's origin was not simple, but he had saved her and her mother and grandmother's lives today, and if he had not sacrificed himself to defend himself against arrows, he would have died completely.

She has always been a person who will repay her kindness, and she and this Yao Gongzi are only two-sided, and it is understandable that people will not tell her the truth and reveal their identity, she can't erase his life-saving grace to her just because people want to keep her identity secret.

Qin Yining didn't have a good impression of the officials of the Great Yan Dynasty, and hated the corrupt Yan Dynasty, so of course he wouldn't help these people deal with his life-saving benefactors.

She quickly pondered in her mind, thinking of countermeasures.

Xiao Xiao's originally depressed mood suddenly improved when he saw Qin Yining worried about himself.

He was very observant, even if he didn't stare at Qin Yining, he could clearly see her little appearance with a slight frowning and squinting and contemplation.

How can it be so cute!

It really made him want to snatch people back and keep them by his side, this girl was as beautiful as a painting. It's good to look at it every day.

It's just that Qin Huaiyuan can't get rid of Xiao Zhongzheng's death.

Morally, Xiao Xiao understands that this matter cannot be blamed entirely on Qin Huaiyuan's head, one is to blame the conjecture of the Northern Ji Duanjun, and the other is also a different position. Qin Huai is a native of Yan Country, and it is normal to deal with invaders.

But in terms of personal affairs, he was still awkward when he saw Qin Huaiyuan.

Such an interesting woman, why is she Qin Huaiyuan's daughter......

Just when the two of them were thinking about it, Qin Huaiyuan had already taken Sun's hand, called Qin Yining again, and said to Xu Mao instead: "In this case, this official will take his family back first." ”

Unexpectedly, Xu Mao stopped in front of Qin Huaiyuan and his party with a strong step, and politely arched his hand and said, "Master Qin stays!" Today's incident, Master Tai's family members are also witnesses, and the lower officials still want to leave them to question. ”

Qin Huaiyuan said unhappily: "There is also the sister-in-law of the Immortal Guguan here, and there are other people here, so many people, isn't it enough for Lord Xu to ask?" ”

Xu Mao still had a smile on his face, and respectfully gave Qin Huaiyuan a salute, but his words and attitude were very resolute: "Qin Taishi forgives his sins, and it is also his duty to be a lower official, Qin Taishi is an example of the officials in the court, should he not allow such a reasonable request from the lower official, and the Taishi will not allow it?" This spread out, and it was not good for the reputation of the Taishi. ”

Qin Huaiyuan's face was gloomy, and he looked at Xu Mao with twisted eyebrows.

Xu Mao was still smiling, but he didn't give an inch in front of Qin Huaiyuan.

Qin Yining saw all this clearly, and he understood it in his heart.

This Lord Xu is not in the same camp as his father, and eight or nine out of ten are Cao Guozhang's henchmen.

Cao Guozhang's relationship between the DPRK and China is intertwined, and he has his henchmen in various ministries under his management for many years. Although his father is strong, he is not as good as Cao Guozhang and has the support of the queen in the palace.

Qin Yining didn't want his father to have a quarrel with Cao Guozhang over this matter. Even if it is not against Cao Guozhang, it is not good to be an enemy of anyone for this reason.

Besides, she also wants to save her life.

With her in the background, the person's identity is more credible.

Even if she suspects him, she can help him cover it up like this, and it can be regarded as paying him back.

Qin Yining stepped forward and saluted: "Father, why don't you take your mother back first, there are also things at home for you to be busy with, I will stay here, explain clearly to Lord Xu, and then I will go back to the house later." ”

Qin Huaiyuan frowned: "You are a girl's family, you show your head, what kind of system do you become." ”

Qin Yining said: "My father also knows that I am different from ordinary girls, not to mention that I am not alone, my grandmother is here, as well as my friends in business and my nurses." ”

"Business friends?" Qin Huaiyuan raised his eyebrows suspiciously.

Qin Yining said: "Yes, it's Yao Gongzi." My father also knows that I have other properties under Zhaoyunji. ”

Qin Huaiyuan frowned again and looked at Xiao Xiao.

I want to ask again, but I also know that it is not suitable to talk more at this moment, and I don't know how many eyeliners from all walks of life have gathered here.

Thinking of this, Qin Huaiyuan nodded and said, "You pay attention to yourself." ”

The family still has to carry the Cao family into the door, and he has the heart to stay, but the things over there are also important. So much time has been delayed, and if things get bigger, his plans may also change.

Moreover, he left Qin Yining in front of Xu Mao to cooperate with the questioning, and Xu Mao didn't dare to touch her at all.

Qin Huaiyuan took Sun's hand and walked quickly.

Sun was held by Qin Huaiyuan, and the grievances of the concubine had to be forgotten, and he forgot to say goodbye to his mother, so he was moved and joyful and left the Immortal Gu Temple.

When Xu Mao led people to investigate in the courtyard, Qin Yining had already instructed Bingtang and Qiu Lu: "You go in first to help Yao Gongzi take a look at his injuries." ”

It's "you", but your eyes are looking at rock candy.

Bingtang nodded solemnly: "Girl, don't worry." I'll go. ”

Qin Yining said to Xiao Xiao: "Son, rest assured, my maid knows some medical skills, let her bandage her son first to stop the bleeding, and then ask the doctor to come and see later." ”

Xiao Xiao looked at Qin Yining with a smile, did not nod, and did not refuse.

Qin Yining was looked at by him like this, and he actually felt his heart beat faster, and even the hand he had just pulled was a little hot.

She lowered her long eyelashes in a panic.

Only then did he let her go, smiled and said, "There is Miss Lao." ”

Liu Xiangu hurriedly led everyone into the house, "It's right here." There are also some herbs available in Poor Dao. ”

Wait for Xiao Xiao and Huzi to enter the house with rock candy and autumn dew. Qin Yining took Songlan to answer some of Xu Mao's questions.

Xu Mao asked only about today's events, how Qin Yining found out, and how he ordered someone to report the news.

Qin Yining replied lightly, and the more he talked to Xu Mao, the more he couldn't get used to this person.

This person seems to be friendly and intelligent, but in fact he is very conceited, and sometimes Qin Yining's words are interrupted by his words like "I know I know" and "I understand".

Later, Qin Yining simply didn't say more. This man has made up her own mind, what else does she say?

Xu Mao crossed his arms and asked again: "That Yao Gongzi, is it your friend?" ”

"It's true that Yao Gongzi has some business dealings with me."

"Business?" Xu Mao's tone was a little disdainful: "Miss Qin is a powerful person. ”

Qin Yining naturally saw his disdain, and said with a smile: "My lord said that I was joking, I am just a boudoir woman, no matter how powerful I am." ”

The plausible sentence reminded Xu Mao of who was standing behind the girl in front of him.

She is Qin Huaiyuan's daughter and the granddaughter of Dingguo Gong!

Although the Dingguo Mansion has fallen, but those old ministers of the Dingguo Gong faction are still there, Qin Huaiyuan is now gaining momentum again, this girl, he really can't be guilty!

Xu Mao ignored Qin Yining and began to point to the corpses on the ground to break the case.

"This official has taken a closer look, these people came to Dayan to assassinate, but they wore the military uniform of Da Zhou, heh, when our Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division are vegetarians? I don't think they're here for the Great Week! ”

Someone on the side immediately echoed flatteringly: "Yes, yes, what the adults said is yes!" ”

"My lord is really wise, if he is really from the Great Zhou, where will he wear the military uniform of the Great Zhou!"
