Yao recalled the moments when he got along with Qin Yining, and said with a smile: "Dad, I'm afraid you're too worried." ”

"Oh?" Yao Chenggu put down his cigarette pouch and looked serious, "Why are you so worried?" ”

"My daughter sees that Miss Qin is a smart person, knows how to advance and retreat, and knows the number of etiquette, I deliberately made the words ugly, she is not annoyed, she copes with it very beautifully, and she has always had respect for her elders, she is not an arrogant and willful person, and she seems to know the situation of the court very well."

The more he said, the more satisfied the Yao family became with Qin Yining, and his smile gradually deepened, "I heard that Lord Qin only has such an only daughter, and looking at her talk today, it is enough to see that Lord Qin's family has an excellent upbringing." Presumably, Lord Qin should also be a smart and courteous person, not looking at the situation in the court, only looking at the character, the Qin family is a good choice for the family. ”

Ma on the side snorted: "You father and daughter just think too much and plan too much, in my opinion, what a smart child our Dafu is, who can he identify, can he be worse?" It's good that the girl has come all the way, and you two are still deliberately tempting, so you are not afraid of ruining the great fortune? ”

Yao Chenggu listened to his old wife talk louder and louder, and in the end, he almost slapped the table, and he was not annoyed, but just smiled and listened to her count.

After Ma finished speaking, he said gently: "Don't be angry, we also have to check for Dafu, besides, if Yuping can say that Miss Qin is annoyed with a random temptation today, it can only prove that the girl is not suitable for our family's Dafu." ”

"Yes, mother." Yao also nodded.

Ma snorted: "The girl of the Qin family was annoyed, that is what you did excessively, can you blame others?" You deliberately tempted, don't you allow people to be annoyed? ”

"Mother, that's not what I meant." Yao's gentle voice explained, "Our Dafu is now in a tense position in the imperial court, don't look at him as a king with a different surname on the surface, the scenery is infinite, but the jealousy of the saints, the hatred of the original old ministers of the Northern Hebei Kingdom, and the existence of those great families, are all the difficulties of our Dafu." Dafu's foundation is shallow, and the position is awkward, if you can't have a smart and stable good girl to help you, it will not only harm Dafu, hurt our family, but also affect the Qin family. ”

"yes." Yao Chenggu also said, "This is not to embarrass the Qin family's girl, but to see if she is suitable to enter our house, if her temperament is not suitable, she will also suffer if she marries in the future, it is better to pinch the source from the very beginning, you want to be the first, if Dafu's daughter-in-law is not able to hold down the position, it is not only Dafu who suffers, but both families will suffer." ”

"It's just that you two have a lot of reason." Ma is not a stupid person, but his mind is not as detailed as this father and daughter, listening to Yao Chenggu and Yao's analysis, I also understood what they meant, and finally said pertinently, "Your ideas are good, and they are also out of good intentions, but your actions are not bright." It's just a temptation, Miss Qin, everyone is beautiful, and it's not a goods to be sold at a price, can you still choose it by your temptation? ”

"That's what my mother said." Yao smiled and nodded.

Yao Chenggu also smiled and said, "Just listen to you." ”

Ma snorted, thinking that Xiao Xiao finally had a happy girl, maybe she would soon have a great-grandson to hold, and her mood became even better.

Qin Yining was being held by the hand at this time, and slowly walked on the path to the study in the outer courtyard.

The stone bricks on the ground are neatly arranged in the shape of fish scales, and the snow is swept cleanly, except for the occasional white lines remaining in the cracks of the floor tiles, and the thick white snow on the courtyard wall will be raised by the wind to shine finely, and it looks particularly crystal clear in the warm afternoon sun.

If you ignore the servants and maids who often salute, in fact, Qin Yining is very willing to go on hand in hand with Xiao Xiao.

"Didn't you say that you made an appointment with Mr. Xie and Mr. Xu? Why don't we hurry over here? ”

Qin Yining withdrew her hand, pretending to look away casually, deliberately not looking at her mother-in-law who looked at her curiously when she saluted.

Xiao Xiao laughed: "Don't worry, it's okay for them to wait." The slightly rough fingers gently touched her ear, "Look, the ears are red, are they cold?" ”

This person is asking knowingly, it's really bad!

"If you move your hands and feet, you won't be afraid of jokes when you see it??"

"What's so funny? Now who doesn't know that this king has snatched the young lady of the Qin family home? It would be strange if I was just courteous to you in the house. ”

Xiao Xiao said with his long arms, took Qin Yining into his arms, and leaned into her ear and said, "The more I am like this, the more real it is." ”

Qin Yining blinked, and asked in a nervous whisper, "Do you have a lot of spies in your mansion?" ”

Xiao Xiao smiled: "It doesn't matter, there are eyeliners from all walks of life." But you don't have to worry, I know it. ”

Qin Yining nodded, if the iron bucket of the palace was as airtight as the guards guarded, then it would make Emperor Zhou even more uneasy, right?

Properly put in a few spies, and you only need to control the channels through which these people get the news to control the situation.

Maybe these spies will be able to use them for themselves at a critical moment.

Seeing Qin Yining's obedient nod, she didn't ask much, and she looked like she knew everything in her heart, so she couldn't help pinching her face, "You understand everything like this, it seems that I am useless." ”

Qin Yining smiled: "Is there still less use for the prince?" I have to rush back to 'recuperate', and I have to pave the way for my father to watch in the future, and I have to worry about whether the old people in the house will make it difficult for me, and I have to think of ways to make me happy. ”

"You know everything?" Although Xiao Xiao knew that Qin Yining would understand him, but when he really heard these words from her mouth, he still couldn't help but be happy in his heart.

"What you have done for me, how can I not know?" Qin Yining sighed lightly and slowly stopped.

Xiao Xiao also stopped, looked down at her, smoothed the broken hair around her ears, and tightened her neckline.

Qin Yining looked up at his smiling eyebrows.

Every time this man faces her, he will restrain all the edges outside, and only show the most special side in front of her.

Knowing that she was in danger, he knew that he might not be able to find someone, but he still transferred troops privately regardless of the danger of being suspicious of Emperor Zhou.

In order not to delay the future of the Qin family's development in the Great Zhou, he disregarded his reputation and performed a scene of bandits robbing people in front of people, and he didn't care about what others said about him at all.

The reason why Emperor Zhou recruited vassals was to balance the relationship between the old and the new nobles in the north and south of the court. The Yan Dynasty's subordinates were headed by Qin Huaiyuan, and as soon as the Qin family arrived, they would definitely be reused.

Emperor Zhou was so jealous of Xiao Xiao, how could he allow Xiao Xiao to have such a powerful Yue family?

Today, if he shows a deep affection for her like when he re-entered Dayan, I am afraid that Qin Huaiyuan's career and the development of the Qin family will be cut off.

Qin Yining sighed and snuggled into his arms, pressed his side face against his chest, and wrapped his hands around his thin waist.

Xiao Xiao was surprised and delighted, this was the first time Qin Yining had taken the initiative to hug her in front of others. He was stunned and didn't know where to put his arms, and it took him a while to come back to his senses, and gradually tightened his embrace, rubbing his chin against her forehead.

"Is it cold?"

"Hmm. It's really cold here, colder than Liangcheng. However, I am at ease now. ”

Being able to make the woman you love feel at ease is the greatest compliment for a man.

His sister Yi is so caring, she has obviously experienced a lot of hardships, she was almost killed, she was almost frozen to death and starved to death in the mountains, and after being found, she worked hard to check and fill in the gaps for his impulsive and unstable plan, she saw him, but she never said a word of bitterness, and never showed a trace of grievance. As if all this was what she was supposed to bear.

He obviously didn't clear the obstacles for her and hold up a sky for her to breathe freely, but she repaid his imperfection with a "peace of mind".

Xiao Xiao closed her eyes, and her lips fell on her forehead with a precious kiss.

"Anyway, you're by my side now. As long as it's right under my nose, if you don't let me be out of reach, if you don't make me afraid, everything is nothing. ”

Qin Yining smiled, "What you said is true." If there is anything, bear it together, there is nothing to be afraid of. ”

Xiao Xiao also laughed, his thumb brushing her lips, the soft touch attracted his eyes, but she took two steps back shyly to avoid it.

"Let's go to the study, it's rude to ask someone to wait for a long time."

Xiao Xiao nodded helplessly, took Qin Yining's hand in his hand, covered her slightly cold fingers with his warm big palm, and said with a smile: "Although the palace is big, the only thing I often do is the study in the outer courtyard. I also rest in the study on weekdays, so if you have anything to do, you can come to me directly. ”

"After all, I was 'kidnapped' by you, and I can't do too much."

"I want to 'tie' you directly to the study, but you are so light, so that my family will look down on you in the future, so that's the only way."

When the two chatted and came to the study room in the outer courtyard, the tiger in front of the courtyard gate was already standing with his hands in front of the courtyard, almost frozen into an ice sculpture.

"Lord Wang, you are here, Mr. Xu and Mr. Xie have eaten three dishes of tea." Huzi jumped on the spot a few times, and then came close to salute Qin Yining, "Hello four girls." ”

Xiao Zhengse said: "We have something important to discuss, and you ordered someone to watch the area around the study." ”

Seeing that the owl was so serious, Huzi immediately straightened his expression and saluted, "Yes." ”

The study is the same as the upper courtyard, and there is a warm kang near the window of the warm pavilion, which is warm, and there is a soft dark blue mattress on it, and there is a brazier on the ground, which is burned with fine silver frost charcoal.

Qin Yining and Xiao Xiao had just sat down after untying their cloaks, and Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi, who had been waiting in the side room for a long time, came together, and dozens of people followed behind them, all dressed as scholars.

Qin Yining said in surprise: "These are all your staff?" ”

"Hmm." Xiao Xiao smiled and nodded, "Today, I only invited some core people to let you get to know each other." ”

Qin Yining couldn't help but smack his tongue, there were so many staff members under Xiao Xiao!

While they were pondering, they all bowed in unison.
