Qin Yining and Xiao Xiao were delayed for a while in the Land Temple, and when they returned to the house, it was already dark. The rain has not stopped for the past few days, and the sky is overcast as if it will collapse at any moment, and it is already dark in the evening.

The two carefully avoided people and entered the house through the side door.

As soon as he returned to the room, Jiyun said excitedly: "Princess, someone just came, guess who it is!" ”

Qin Yining couldn't help but laugh when he saw Jiyun excited: "Who made you happy like this?" The Tang guards didn't go out either. ”

Xiao Xiao went to change into a regular home clothes, and walked out slowly while straightening his neckline, and laughed when he heard the words, "Tang Xiu is a good one, what do you think of Jiyun?" ”

Ji Yun's face was flushed, and he stomped his feet, "Princess, you are too bad, people are talking about serious things!" ”

"What I said to the prince is also serious."

Seeing that Jiyun's face was already red, Qin Yining was worried that the girl's family was thin-skinned, and she was afraid that she would be annoyed if she continued to joke, so she had to say, "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this matter first, who do you say is coming?" ”

Jiyun originally wanted to sell a pass, but he was worried that Qin Yining would continue to tease her, so he hurriedly said: "It's Hall Master Liao and Shocking that they are back!" ”

"Seriously!" Qin Yining's eyes widened in surprise, and he stroked his palms and said, "So, everything in Xiyue has stabilized?" ”

Xiao Xiao also smiled: "It must be, where are people now?" Come on. ”

"Whoa!" Jiyun smiled and nodded, and ran out quickly.

Qin Yining's irritable mood when he was provoked by Bian Ruohan suddenly turned bright, and he took Xiao Xiao's hand and shook his head and looked up at him: "Zhixi, do you say that father, are they going well?" It should be smooth, right? Otherwise, they wouldn't have sent Hall Master Liao and Shocking Ones back. ”

"They must be safe, one is that we have already made the most appropriate preparations, and the other is that you still don't know your father-in-law's ability? I see that all those people in Xiyue are combined, and it is not enough to compete with my father-in-law, and with my father-in-law in charge, I am the most assured. ”

Qin Yining nodded happily, "Me too, the whole family is handed over to my father to protect, and I am also relieved." What's more, there is Aunt Cao here, Aunt Cao's martial arts are strong, and with the people you arranged, she will definitely be able to protect everyone! ”

Xiao Xiao also nodded heavily.

Qin Yining said as he spoke, his eyes suddenly turned red, and tears rolled in his eyes, "I don't know how much Brother Zhao and Brother Han have grown, the next time they see me, maybe they won't recognize me." ”

As soon as Qin Yining burst into tears, her heart was about to break, she held the person tightly in her arms and shook it, and kept kissing her forehead and cheek: "Be good, don't cry." Do you think, your father-in-law and grandmother are here, didn't your grandmother also think of a way to let the children see the portraits? You can rest assured, the children will not forget us, besides, even if they don't remember it deeply, in the end it is our children, who are connected with our blood, get along with each other more, accompany them day and night, and soon become familiar with them again. ”

Qin Yining nodded, wiped all his tears on Xiao Xiao's shoulder, and choked up: "Every time I think of why I am separating flesh and blood, I hate to bite that person to death!" ”

If it weren't for Li Qitian's coercion, where would they have gotten to such a point? She and Xiao Xiao have compromised and regressed again and again, but they have not exchanged for peaceful days, and she will never compromise and retreat in the future!

"Princess." The voice of rock candy came from outside the door, "People have arrived at the flower hall." ”

Qin Yining hurriedly wiped his tears with his sleeve.

Xiao Xiao twisted a warm cloth, leaned over to carefully wipe the tears from her face, and went to get her usual jasmine seeds.

Qin Yining dug a little bit of evenness with his fingers, and smiled at Xiao Xiao's eyes.

Her crying eyes were slightly red and swollen, and the smile of the lying silkworm under her eyes became more obvious, and the pitiful and lovely appearance made Xiao Xiao hate to make people smaller and carry them into his arms, and he hated not to leave her for a single step.

The big hand touched her cheek, and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go ahead." ”

Qin Yining nodded, and walked hand in hand with Xiao Xiao through the verandah, until they reached the flower hall.

As soon as I entered the door, all I saw were acquaintances, Liao Zhibing took two members of the Qingtian Alliance, and the four people of Jingjing, Xiaoman, Xiaoxue and Da Han were also there.

Seeing Qin Yining and Xiao Xiao, several people came forward to salute.

"Lord, princess."

"Excuse me." Qin Yining and Xiao Xiao stepped forward to greet each other warmly.

Liao Zhibing said with a smile: "Alliance leader, fortunately, I don't disgrace my life, and the affairs of Xiyue have been arranged." You don't have to worry, Boss Qin is really Zhuge alive, and the big and small things of Xiyue are now under the control of Elder Qin, and the methods and routes to enter and exit Xiyue have also been figured out, so you really don't have to worry. ”

"Yes, Princess." Shocked also smiled and said, "Before coming, Aunt Cao also told us to bring you a message, everything is fine at home." Although the old lady had a minor illness before, he was fine, as for Brother Zhao and Brother Han, they were the treasures of the whole family, and they were fine anywhere. ”

"Yes, yes, don't worry, the princess, Mrs. Zheng also asked people to draw portraits of you and the prince, Brother Zhao and Brother Han have to go to see the portraits before studying all day."

Qin Yining and Xiao Xiao both laughed when they heard this, "Grandmother really has a way. ”

"That's right, Old Master Qin praised Old Madam Zheng for her thoughtfulness." Xiao Man said, "The princess and the prince didn't see it, Xiyue is now being governed in an orderly manner, and the people of our family have gone, and they are also very quick to integrate into the environment." Even Brother Zhao and Brother Han, when the ordinary people heard that they were the children of the goddess and the king, they were also very respectful, and even the old lady took her brother to walk on the street, and the ordinary people stopped and saluted when they saw it. ”

Qin Yining listened to it funny, the people of Xiyue admired the goddess, and she was forced to be hatted at the beginning, and she couldn't imagine that she could use this goddess identity to protect her family. Isn't this God's preferential treatment for her?

Qin Yining nodded again and again: "That's good, everything goes well." Do you have something to do when you come out this time? ”

He smiled and said, "It was Aunt Cao who ordered us to come out and follow you to protect you, and the old lady Qin also felt that this was very good, saying that you and the prince were more dangerous things outside, and with us, there was no need to hinder when employing people, and they could be trusted." ”

Liao Zhibing also smiled and said: "That's what I mean, although there are people from the prince around the alliance leader, sometimes there are insufficient manpower. With us here, the princess doesn't have to worry about the princess's safety, he can let go of his hands and feet to do his own thing, and the princess doesn't have to worry about finding someone she trusts when she has something temporary. ”

Qin Yining laughed: "It's still Aunt Cao's thoughtfulness." If there is no crisis on the other side of the sunset, you can come to me, and it will naturally be like a tiger with wings. ”

Xiao Xiao also said: "That's okay, you also know the temperament of your princess, you would rather take risks yourself in case of trouble, you must do it, I'm worried that she will take risks, and there is no other way, you are here, I can follow her, I can rest assured." ”

Liao Zhibing, Jing Zhen and the others all laughed, "The princess has courage and courage, and she is willing to take risks for the princess if she is not willing to miss the opportunity, but the princess can rest assured, with us, even if we fight for our lives, we will never put the princess in danger." ”

He bowed his head and stood up to salute everyone, "Then I will work hard for everyone." ”

Liao Zhibinghe was shocked by everyone, and hurriedly got up to avoid the courtesy, and instead saluted: "The prince tortures us and others, and it is our duty to be loyal to the princess. ”

The two sides talked for a while, and Liao Zhibing said: "Alliance leader, there is actually one more thing. ”

"What?"

"As we left the setting moon, we noticed that the Tatars were moving troops in the desert. Because the opponent's defense was too tight, and there were many dangers coming and going in the desert, we could not find out what the Tatars were going to do. But looking at them, it looks like they have a tough battle to fight. ”

When Qin Yining and Xiao Xiao heard this, their faces tightened for a moment.

The war between the Great Zhou and the Tatars lasted so long, they could imagine how hard it took Ji Zeyu to quell the war in the north and return peace to the people.

Peace was not easy to come by, and Siqin also tasted the bitterness, and they all believed that the Tatars had lost the ability to continue to invade the north, and they could develop in peace.

But if the Tatars really secretly dispatched troops and horses, things would not be simple.

Even if Qin Yining and Xiao Xiao can't get used to what Li Qitian did, they will never expect another war to break out, once the Tatars and the Great Zhou start a war, the tight treasury of the Great Zhou will drag down the entire war, and the imperial court may have to increase all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes in order to fight.

"I see. I'll look into this matter carefully. Xiao Xiao said seriously, "Thank you for the news, otherwise, if you are unprepared, once the Tatars mobilize troops, it will be the people at the border who are unlucky." ”

Liao Zhibing said: "Don't be so polite, we also did what we should do." ”

Qin Yining said with a smile: "I have already ordered someone to prepare wine and food, let's have a drink today, and it will be good after saying goodbye." ”

Liao Zhibing, Jing Zhen and the others naturally readily agreed.

Qin Yining and Xiao Xiao called Huzi, Tang Xiu and others again, and everyone gathered in the flower hall to eat and chat.

At the same time in the Lu family, Lu Heng sat in the first place, looking at Lu Xiong who was kneeling on the ground with a smile on his face, his fingers gently twisting back and forth, obviously falling into thought.

Lu Xiong was extremely worried, trembling like chaff.

He had already told Lu Heng about the treasure hidden in the stone factory just now, but this person's reaction was not at all different from what he expected, he didn't seem to be surprised, he was not interested in the treasure at all, and he even wondered if the purpose of his visit was to harm people.

Lu Xiong regretted it a little, he shouldn't have volunteered, just leave this matter to Shi Fang to do.

Lu Heng's smile deepened a lot, the curvature of his lips rose, and he said quite funny: "So you said that the treasure is in the pile of stones in the stone factory, and you still know which stones contain treasures?" ”
