Chapter 108: Protection

Qin Yining's beautiful eyes blinked, and it took a long time to digest the meaning of Yu Chiyan's words.

She was a little moved.

But more than that, there are surprises and deep thoughts.

She is not familiar with Yu Chiyan, and his doing this makes people feel that she has sworn an alliance with him.

If there is such a thing, why do you say it in front of so many people? If he was afraid that she would not be humiliated and committed suicide, why didn't he quietly tell her to give her a hope of living?

Now the officials accompanying the Ministry of Rites, as well as the 100 soldiers and 50 guards arranged by the emperor are all watching, which must be mixed with the eyeliner planted by people from different factions.

Yu Chiyan wanted to bind her to his ship in public, so as to completely pull Qin Huaiyuan into a faction, and he didn't consider her reputation at all, just to make everyone misunderstand that she had been privately taught and received by the prince and privately agreed for life.

Qin Yining admits that he is too realistic.

But she is the concubine of the imperial master, and she can't just talk about feelings like an ordinary woman and not analyze the court situation.

If Yu Chiyan is just the son of an ordinary family, she will feel that this is a revelation of her true feelings.

But Wei Chiyan is the crown prince.

The crown prince's position is now precarious.

The crown prince also had a close relationship with King Ning.

At the beginning, King Ning snatched the rock candy, she came to the rescue and was forced to pull the Dingguo Mansion family and her father into King Ning's camp, and King Ning was able to successfully impeach Cao Guozhang, and since then he has offended the Cao family, so that the demon queen was framed in every way, which led to the death of Sun Yuanming, which led to the destruction of the Sun family's family, so that so many women no longer have to rely on, which indirectly caused the mother's difficulties in the Qin Mansion......

The cause of this series of chain reactions is the calculation of King Ning and the prince's faction.

She naively thought she was saving people.

But the cruel reality taught her a lesson, the blood of the Sun family is an expensive bondage.

With these experiences, Qin Yining is no longer a little girl full of love and longing.

She smiled slightly, helped Bingtang and Songlan's hands and slowly got out of the carriage, stepped back two steps and saluted, and said crisply: "His Royal Highness the Prince, please respect yourself, since ancient times, the matter of marriage has always been in accordance with the orders of your parents and the words of the matchmaker. ”

Yu Chiyan was stunned when she heard this, and then her white skin turned red, and she took two steps in front of Qin Yining, and reached out to shake her hand.

"Fourth girl, you misunderstood, I ......"

There was a crisp sound of "pop", and his hand grabbed hers, but she was immediately waved away by her other hand, and the back of his hand turned red.

Qin Yining twisted his eyebrows and said coldly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, men and women can't kiss!" Although the courtiers were ordered to participate in the peace talks, the outsiders passed on all kinds of unbearable things to the courtiers, but it was also the courtiers who were willing to sacrifice for the country! Today, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so indifferent in public, and he can't help but ignore the name of his courtiers! ”

Yu Chiyan looked down at his hand in a daze, then looked at the more than 100 people around him, and then looked at Qin Huaiyuan, who was frowning.

Simple brain circuits are finally connected in a few places!

Thinking that King Ning went to persuade his father to release him from his grounding last night, and thinking that King Ning instigated him to come and chase people early this morning, some vague thoughts gradually took shape in his mind.

He felt that he was being used, but he still did not understand the specific details.

He only knew that his confession did not bring Qin Yining's tears in exchange for her eyes, nor did he exchange her moving promises, but he became indifferent in public and looked down on her.

Oh, yes! She is not a Qinglou woman, she is a serious lady, the affairs of men and women, even if there are only two people, it is a private teaching to be mentioned in person, not to mention that he actually preached loudly when more than 100 people, and he had to catch people's hands......

Yu Chiyan regretted it! His face was already purple.

"It's cold, the prince is busy with official business, please go back." Qin Yining said curtsy and got into the car again.

The prince froze in place, staring blankly at her graceful back.

Qin Huaiyuan watched everything from afar, and naturally understood Qin Yining's considerations, and had a deeper understanding of his daughter's intelligence in his heart.

In the past, she was plotting with people in the house, which could only show her cleverness and means, but now her approach truly reflects her political acumen and overall situation.

She refused so harshly, not only to protect her reputation, but also to let people understand that he, Qin Huaiyuan, was loyal to the emperor, and even if he became the prince and master, he did not become a knife in anyone's hand.

And she is a woman in the boudoir, in the face of such a public teasing, she reprimands the righteous words and the right words.

She also said that the marriage event respects the order of her parents, and it also leaves room for the marriage between the Qin family and the prince.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the auspicious time cannot be delayed, and the ministers will leave first." Qin Huaiyuan smiled and saluted the prince, his attitude was no different from his usual modesty and courtesy, so that people couldn't see what he was thinking.

Yu Chiyan's forehead was sweating.

"Taishi, the ...... of this palace"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't need to say much, the ministers understand."

What do you understand?! I'm afraid you're wrong!

Yu Chiyan was shouting in her heart, and the corners of her lips twitched, not knowing what to say.

The owl sitting on the tree in the forest relaxed again and leaned against the trunk of the tree, closing his eyes and recuperating.

Qin Huaiyuan and Yu Chi Yanli took care of it for a few weeks, then got into the carriage and ordered to set off.

The convoy drove slowly, and Yu Chiyan stood on the side of the road with his attendants, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, and he got on the horse in despair, and he was not in high spirits when he came.

The attendant who followed the waiter looked at the prince's face and pondered: "Your Highness, the little lady of the Qin family is too ignorant of lifting, His Royal Highness the prince is such a suave character, she is willing to ask her to be a broken flower and a willow, she dares to be so arrogant!" Your Highness, if you don't ......"

"Get out of here!" Yu Chiyan shook it with a whip and said angrily: "Go to King Ning's Mansion." ”

The chamberlain was shocked to find that his horse's fart had slapped on the horse's leg, and he didn't dare to say more, so he hurriedly saluted, and the group chased the prince to the city.

Silence gradually returned to the official road.

Only then did he open his eyes and jumped to the ground.

Huzi followed, "Master, that prince really likes Miss Qin Si." ”

"He likes. But he acted too disorganized. The owl walked deep into the woods in the direction of their horses.

Huzi was surprised that Xiao Xiao actually answered him, and hurriedly asked: "Master, although the prince didn't take into account the name of the fourth lady, it is really not good to be like that in public, but he also reveals his true feelings. ”

"The people behind the scenes take advantage of his true feelings, and he is sold and returned to the number of people, and it is not bad for this kind of prince to keep."

"Master, I don't understand."

"Didn't he say in the end that he was going to find King Ning?"

Xiao Xiao had already walked to the horse first and untied the reins, "The prince's grounding was only lifted last night, and he has been thinking about it behind closed doors in the East Palace throughout the New Year. I lifted my grounding yesterday, and I came in a hurry early this morning. I did some stupid things, and I went back to King Ning again, don't you understand? ”

Huzi blinked, and then let out a long "oh".

"It's King Ning behind his back again! He wanted to completely win over Qin Meng! Hey, last time he wooed Qin Meng, there was no man left in the Sun family, this time, tsk, fortunately, the fourth lady still knows how to respect herself, so as to avoid a difficulty. ”

While stroking the black and shiny horse, he said, "She's smart." "In vain, he just sweated for her.

Huzi was surprised when he heard this: "Master, are you saying that Fourth Miss did it on purpose?" ”

"Let's go."

"Hey, master, you haven't answered me yet."

He stopped talking.

Huzi held his mouth depressedly, followed the Xiao Xiao to lead the horse to the official road, and muttered: "Just the two of us, even if the Tatars come, what role can we play." Besides, their contingent for peace talks is more than 150 old men, and the Tatars will come at most twenty or thirty more, and they will not destroy all the contingent for peace talks. ”

Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows to look at Huzi, and then pulled out a black leather rope from the neckline, and tied a small red jade whistle carved with a tiger's head pattern.

Huzi was surprised and said, "You passed on the spirit tiger guard?" ”

He replied with a whistle.

A desolate, high-pitched eagle chirp echoed across the sky.

In just a few moments, ten sturdy men rode along the official road from the direction of Kyoto, all of them in their early twenties, all of them tall and large, and their air pockets were bursting.

Seeing the graceful man sitting on the black horse, the ten people turned over and dismounted in unison, knelt on one knee, and said in unison: "Master! ”

"Well, get up, it's been hard all the way, follow me on your journey."

"It is our honor to be loyal to our master, let alone hard work!"

Ten men mounted their horses again and followed behind them.

Huzi smacked his tongue.

Jinghuwei is carefully cultivated by Xiao Xiao, and they are all selected to be homeless during the war, and on the surface, they are counted as the soldiers of the Loyal Prince's Mansion, with an establishment of only one hundred. But these 100 people are selected from thousands of people. Those who were not selected were all organized in the Tiger Army.

It can be said that a large part of the men in the Tiger Army who worship the prince are trained by the prince, and everyone wants to become a fine tiger guard and serve the prince closely.

Due to the instability of the court, before the prince set out on the expedition, he left forty elite tiger guards to protect the palace, and secretly arranged tasks around the capital with twenty elite tiger guards, and also left six disguised as small servants and chamberlains to protect the old lady and others. Only thirty-four people were brought out, and each of them had a mission.

Now I heard that the Tatar spies had infiltrated the Great Zhou, and in order to protect the enemy's daughter, the prince actually transferred ten of them at once.

Huzi didn't know what to say.

Xiao Xiao and Huzi took ten elite tiger guards not far away behind the team of the Great Zhou peace talks, which not only prevented the group of people from discovering themselves, but also ensured the safety of the group.

In the evening, he really found the Tatars disguised as mountain bandits all the way, and they were all wiped out without much effort.

For Qin Yining, the road was still peaceful.

For Xiao Xiao and Huzi, it is not boring to loosen their muscles and bones along the way.

On the afternoon of the eighteenth, the team finally came to the outside of Xihua City.

Qin Yining lifted the warm curtain on the car window.

The fiery red sunset is far away from the mountains, and the ancient city of Xihua City stands, gazing at the swaying mountains and rivers of Dayan with a compassionate gaze. The two armies in the wilderness were in a row, and the wild wind they breathed was mixed with gunsmoke and blood.

This is the brutal battlefield.

Qin Yining's expression became solemn.
