Seeing Cao Yuqing coming, Qin Yining hurriedly asked her to sit down, and said in a low voice, "Have you ever eaten?" Use some with me. ”

Cao Yuqing shook her head and said, "I've eaten it casually." I found the clues left by the spies. ”

Seeing Cao Yuqing's face so solemn, Qin Yining couldn't help but look at it as well.

She knew Cao Yuqing's ability, and she also guessed that the silver-faced spy would leave clues, but she didn't expect that there really was.

Does this mean that there is really a problem with the people of the Blue Sky Alliance?

Qin Yining only felt that he was in a fog at this time, and he didn't know which side he should trust at all. She now desperately hopes that she can have loyal subordinates, if she has such a group of subordinates, how can this happen today? How could she be in a dilemma?

Seeing Qin Yining's embarrassment, Cao Yuqing patted her shoulder comfortingly, and said in a low voice: "I followed the clues to find a crack in the ground formed by the turning of the earth dragon, and the location was on the way from the old capital to Yangyang. The crack in the ground was very large, and there was no shelter around, so most people would try to bypass it when they passed by. I pretended to pass by and took a look, but I didn't dare to approach it for fear of startling the snakes. But I suspect that the treasure is hidden there. ”

Qin Yining's white fingers pinched the hem of his skirt tightly, pinching the pink nails that were originally like cherry blossom petals white.

It's really uncomfortable to be betrayed.

Especially since this matter is also a matter of life and death.

Qin Yining is not afraid of death, but this matter is related to the life and death of the two families of the Lu family and the Qin family. This couldn't help but make her feel flustered. She even blamed herself a little.

If it wasn't for her self-righteous advice, how could Xiao Xiao use the people of the Blue Sky Alliance? How did things get to this point?

Cao Yuqing looked at Qin Yining's handsome face, her eyes gradually drifted away, and she stretched out her arm and patted Qin Yining's shoulder.

"Don't think about it that much, it's not your fault. Now that it's happened, let's just think about making amends. The soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, there is always a way to solve it. The prince and I will protect your peace. As for where in the capital, with your father here, he will take care of the safety of the two families. You can't be confident, can't you trust your father's abilities? ”

Qin Yining took a deep breath and nodded slowly.

"You're right. My father is Zhi Pan'an, even if I poke out a big basket, he has a way to solve it. Qin Yining said this, and I don't know if he was comforting himself.

Cao Yuqing said with a smile: "Don't say it, I think you are too worry-free on weekdays, and your father still wants you to make some trouble, and then cry and go home to find him to help you." Your father, although he has a small heir, is actually a man who loves children very much. Although he is wise and close to demons, he also has a childish side. ”

When Cao Yuqing talked about Qin Huaiyuan, her tone became surprisingly soft.

Qin Yining knew that she had a deep affection for Qin Huaiyuan, and had silently liked him for many years, and she would never abandon Qin Huaiyuan when he was in the most difficult time, and stayed by his side regardless of his name, such feelings made her admire.

Sometimes, Qin Yining also feels contradictory, for the sake of the Sun family, she should really be the enemy of Cao Yuqing.

But after Cao Yuqing found out that Qin Huaiyuan had no love for her, she no longer rushed to pursue Qin Huaiyuan, but instead became the most loyal guard and subordinate, willing to pay silently without asking for anything in return. She really can't afford to hate her.

"Aunt Cao." Qin Yining looked at Cao Yuqing, and this aunt screamed willingly, "Thank you." ”

Cao Yuqing's eyelashes trembled, and she looked at Qin Yining's sincere eyes, and slowly burst into a soft smile.

"Silly girl, I am friends with your father, and I should help, what kind of thanks?"

Qin Yining shook his head, not saying anything, but he was also moved.

In fact, if Cao Yuqing has a little wrong mind and wants to assassinate the Sun family and then ascend to the throne herself, as a silver-faced spy she will have a hundred ways to achieve her goal unknowingly.

But she didn't.

Qin Yining sighed and shook his head, not wanting to mention the topic that would make Cao Yuqing sad and ugly, so he said, "I already understand the current situation. I will discuss it with the prince and then make a decision. ”

"It's fine. The prince is assertive and very good at controlling the overall situation, so you can discuss what to do with it later. I'll go out and investigate again, and I'll tell you when I get the letter. ”

Cao Yuqing stood up.

Qin Yining said, "It's not safe outside, you better stay here." ”

"No, I'm very comfortable outside, not to mention that I have to keep an eye on the movements of the Long Xiang Army all the time, it's inconvenient here."

Qin Yining nodded in understanding, sent Cao Yuqing to the window, and watched Lisuo leave through the window.

After the owl returned. Qin Yining still told him about this matter carefully.

"The crack in the ground you are talking about was formed by the turning of the earth dragon this time? Is it the one we passed by when we came to Yangyang from the old capital? ”

"Yes." Qin Yining said with some embarrassment, "If it weren't for Aunt Cao finding the clues left by the silver-faced secret agent, who would have thought that the treasure would be there." ”

Hearing that her name for Cao Yuqing had changed, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but put his arms around her waist, let her sit on his lap, and said with a smile: "It seems that you like Cao very much now?" ”

"I admire it." Qin Yining sat on his lap, simply pillowed on his shoulder, and said in a low voice, "Although I can't stand my mother in this way, objectively speaking, I think Aunt Cao has paid a lot for my father." She didn't harm my mother in dirty ways, nor did she enter the house, but was willing to be a guard. I don't think I could have done it if I had put myself in her shoes. ”

Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows, hugged Qin Yining's arm and tightened it, "If you and I were already married when we met, wouldn't you ignore me and wouldn't like me?" ”

When Qin Yining heard this, he couldn't help but sit up straight and look up at him.

Xiao Xiao also lowered his eyes.

The eyes of the two fused, and Qin Yining's voice was full of laughter and lingering, "Idiot, if you don't have this kind of thing, what do you want to do so much?" ”

Qin Yining felt that Xiao Xiao was sometimes like a child, and what he cared about was the kind of impossible things that could happen.

But Xiao Xiao refused to give up, and gently shook her and said, "No, you still have to answer me." If I had been married when I met you, wouldn't you have liked me and wouldn't have followed me? ”

Qin Yining thought about it carefully, analyzed his likes and dislikes, and finally nodded: "If external factors force me to obey, then I may follow, but out of my heart, I am unwilling to be a concubine and rob someone's husband." As a woman, I understand the hardships of women the most, and I still understand the truth that you should not do to others what you do not want. ”

"But when people's feelings really erupt, it's hard to control."

Qin Yining shook his head with a smile and said, "It's one thing to be emotional, it's another thing to act. Is it right to disturb other people's families for their own selfishness? A sentence that is difficult to control can cancel out all faults? I think that being born as a human being is better than being an animal is that people are rational and can control their behavior. If everything is done according to instinct, then what is the difference between it and animals? ”

"You girl." Xiao Xiao laughed and dropped a resounding kiss on her cheek, "You scolded too widely." scolded those men and women who couldn't control the outer room and couldn't control being concubines. ”

Qin Yining said, "People think differently, I just say my own thoughts." Although I support my mother and don't want her to be unhappy, I also know that Aunt Cao has done nothing wrong. Her affection for my father is probably no more than my mother's affection for my father, and even more than she has paid. ”

"So you trust her?" He rubbed his chin against her forehead.

Qin Yining couldn't help nodding and said, "Yes, because of her feelings for my father, and because she had a precedent of 'loving the house and Wu' before." She won't lie to me. Even if the six silver-faced spies were in battle against the water, she should not have known about it. ”

Xiao Xiao listened to Qin Yining's analysis and kissed her forehead again.

It's not easy.

Although the roads are being repaired urgently, the situation in the disaster area is basically stable, and there will be no civil unrest for the time being, their every move is under Li Qitian's surveillance. Moreover, Li Qitian also took the Long Xiang army to garrison and surround the old capital. If they really make any rash moves, the poor and crazy Li Qitian will really turn his face and be ruthless.

If he came by himself, he didn't care about this, the problem was that he still had Qin Yining by his side.

He can play Lai Sapo alone, but with Qin Yining, there are many inconveniences, and he can't let Qin Yining accompany him to take risks.

But if that treasure falls into Li Qitian's hands, anyway, it is estimated that the treasure will not be needed for disaster relief now, and he doesn't have to think about it to know what Li Qitian wants the treasure to do.

At that time, not only him, but also Ji Zeyu's position will become very embarrassing.

In the past, there was no silver, and Li Qitian could come up with all kinds of ways to weaken the military power of the two of them and provoke their relationship.

Once he has the silver, God knows what else Li Qitian will come up with.

He's not alone anymore, he's more concerned now, and he doesn't want to take any risks at all.

Thinking of this, Xiao Xiao decided that the treasure still had to be taken. Regardless of whether or not he needs to use treasure to feed his army in the future. Just for safety, Li Qitian can't be allowed to get it.

But now that they're under close surveillance, what should they do?

Qin Yining suddenly said at this time: "I thought of a way to explore the treasure, I don't know if it's feasible or not, can you listen?" ”

Xiao Xiao couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "You and I really have a heart, and I'm thinking about how to investigate." ”

Qin Yining straightened up with a smile and whispered in his ear, and he hesitated for a moment after listening, and finally nodded hesitantly.

"It's okay, whether this thing is successful or not, you can go back to Beijing directly. lest you be in danger here, and you will suffer. ”
