And the moment Jiang Ning closed his eyes, Qin Luo opened his eyes, and there seemed to be a different kind of emotion flowing in his deep eyes.

Just now, in the imperial study.

He lost consciousness inexplicably, and after eating a snack.

He had a suspicion in his heart, and Jiang Ning felt Qin Luo's eyes, she suddenly opened her eyes, and sure enough, she saw Qin Luo looking at her faintly.

Her heart was stunned, and her face turned pale in an instant: "Are you awake?"

"Why am I here?" Qin Luo's eyes had a trace of doubt in them, but his heart was very heavy.

Jiang Ning saw that he didn't say anything else, and she was much more relieved, and now she could only see the move.

"You're too tired to fall asleep, I can't leave you in the imperial study, so I'll let Gonggong Li bring you back." Jiang Ning lowered his eyes and said without looking at Qin Luo.

Qin Luo nodded, and didn't ask Jiang Ning, seeing that he didn't ask more, her heart was relieved.

When he woke up the next morning, Qin Luo was no longer around, Jiang Ning's heart was very happy, as long as he didn't face him now, it would be fine.

After Qin Luo continued to deal with Zhao Jianghai's affairs, he returned to the imperial study, and when he reviewed the folds, he could always remember yesterday's events in his mind.

"Is there any dim sum left from Concubine Ning last night?" Qin Luo didn't look up and asked.

"If you go back to the emperor, last night's dim sum Niang Niang said that she didn't make it delicious, and she couldn't eat it overnight, so Niang Niang asked her to take it down and throw it away." Gonggong Li bowed his head and said respectfully.

When Qin Luo heard this, a strange feeling slipped through his heart: "Go down."

After a while, Xin Fei'er arrived at the imperial study.

"The concubine sees the emperor..."Xin Fei'er squatted down slightly, looking very gentle.

Qin Luo was in a bad mood, but he had to treat this princess well: "Get up, if you don't come today, I plan to accompany you to lunch."

Hearing this, Xin Fei'er laughed: "Your Majesty, I heard that the emperor is worried about the recent Xinguo affairs, so the concubine specially sent ginseng soup." As she spoke, she brought the ginseng soup.

"Yesterday, Concubine Ning sent a snack, and today you sent ginseng soup, where do I still have a reason to worry." Qin Luo's voice was difficult to discern the mood, and he looked down at the ginseng soup with a thoughtful look.

"Concubine Ning... She naturally cares about the emperor, so she specially came to ask the concubine about the flood in Xinguo yesterday, and also asked General Han how he is doing, which shows Concubine Ning's sincerity to the emperor. Xin Fei'er smiled lightly on her lips.

"Yes, I heard that Concubine Ning has a good relationship with General Han, and a few days ago, the slave maid saw Concubine Ning and General Han laughing on the south side of the Imperial Garden." Pauline said next to her at this time.

Xin Fei'er's face immediately changed, and she said sharply: "Who allows you to talk more, don't retreat!" ”

"The slave is talkative, and I ask the emperor to forgive her sins." Pauline said with a look of sincere fear.

Qin Luo looked at the way the two sang and harmonized, and knew the purpose of their trip, but he didn't debunk it, but just said in a deep voice: "It's okay, after all, she is the slave you brought from Xinguo." ”

"Thank you very much, if not, I will punish you severely." Xin Fei'er had a strange smile on her face.

Xin Fei'er said a few more words to Qin Luo, after she left, Qin Luo became suspicious, there have been rumors in the palace recently, and he will not take it to heart about Jiang Ning's martial arts.

But what happened last night is really hard not to make people suspicious, plus what Xin Fei'er said today, what he said is true or false, I don't know, but so many things have been linked recently, and they can't all be groundless.

Could it be that Jiang Ning really...

Although Qin Luo didn't want to believe it in his heart, whether Jiang Ning, who ate the heart of the merman, was really the same Jiang Ning as before, maybe others couldn't know.

But he is Jiang Ning's pillow person, after regaining his body, Jiang Ning has many differences from before, Qin Luo comforted himself, this may be a normal reaction, but recently...

Just as Qin Luo was thinking about it, the guards outside brought an urgent report.

"Your Majesty, the flood in Xinguo is serious, and General Han has been trapped so far, may I ask the emperor if he wants to send reinforcements."

After Qin Luo heard this, his expression became even heavier than before: "With 200,000 soldiers and horses, I will personally go to Xinguo." ”

"The emperor must not, the emperor has a golden dragon body, how can he go out in person?" When the guard heard this, he quickly knelt on the ground.

"Take Concubine Xin and Concubine Ning and set off tomorrow." Qin Luo didn't pay attention to what he said, but his mind became heavier, the reason why he planned to take Jiang Ning with him this time to Xinguo, he had his own plans in his heart, and hoped that Jiang Ning would not let him down...

Eating the merman's heart, is she still her? If it really wasn't, there was an empty body, and he would never keep her again.

After Jiang Ning received the news, she couldn't help but wonder in her heart, she had never been close to Xinguo's affairs, why did Qin Luo take her there?

Could it be that Qin Luo really had doubts about this matter... But fortunately, let her go out with two maidservants, and if there is anything, there will be a response.

In the early morning of the next day, everyone was ready to leave the city, another general took the lead in taking 200,000 soldiers and horses out of the city, and the emperor went in person, in order to avoid riots among the people in the city, so Qin Luo and his party did not plan to expose their identities.

A few people changed into ordinary people's clothes, sat in a carriage, and marched towards Xinguo at a high speed, and the gallop was tired after a day's journey, and several people were already tired.

Besides, the night road is not easy to walk, at this time has reached the border of Manjiang country, and soon can enter the country of faith, a few people found a remote inn to stay.

Along the way, Qin Luo rarely spoke, and Jiang Ning couldn't talk if he wanted to.

"What kind of inn is this? How can I live in such a humble state? "As soon as Xin Fei'er arrived here, she showed a very dissatisfied look here.

"Princess, now that the emperor is here, it's better to wait for one night first, and wait until tomorrow to talk about anything." Pauline whispered to the side.

Xin Fei'er took a few deep breaths, raised her eyes and saw that the wood on the roof was about to fall, and there was always a musty smell in this house, looking at the people here, the shopkeeper was wearing a simple dress, looking like those untouchables, she was born noble, how could she live under the same roof with this kind of person?

"How? After a day's journey, you are also tired, and now you can't find any other place to go for the time being, so you can only be wronged for one night. Qin Luo whispered softly to Jiang Ning, there seemed to be a little different emotion in his eyes, but Jiang Ning didn't realize Qin Luo's thoughts at this time.

Xin Fei'er saw Qin Luo hanging her aside, and she was naturally unhappy in her heart: "Your Majesty, it's already late at night, so it's better for the concubines to wait for the emperor to rest." ”

"No need, I'm resting here with Concubine Ning today." After Qin Luo said this, he took Jiang Ning's shoulders and entered one of the guest rooms.

Xin Fei'er stood in place, looking at the two of them angrily, she is a dignified princess of a country, can't she compare to this cheap woman?

"Princess, you deign to be noble, it's not easy to live here, that woman is really bad, she will try her best to seduce the emperor, the slave maid thought, the princess should also take the initiative, otherwise, wouldn't it be that Jiang Ning took the limelight?" Pauline said with her eyebrows fluttering on the side.

Xin Fei'er beckoned, and Baolian followed her into the room, outside the door, only to hear Baolian say very quietly: "The princess is not as good as tomorrow..."

……

On the other side, Qin Luo and Jiang Ning were about to rest, and the shopkeeper specially brought a pot of hot tea.

"The frost is heavy in the middle of the night, you might as well drink a cup of tea to warm up." Qin Luo raised the teacup and said to Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning shook her head with a smile, she opened the window and looked at the night scene outside the window, and her heart only felt extremely heavy.

The current situation is harmful and unprofitable for Jiang Ning, even Qin Luo is suspicious, she can't wait any longer...

In her heart, she only heard a sudden sound of something breaking behind her, and when she heard the sound, she quickly turned around, only to see Qin Luo already lying on the table, and there was a broken teacup on the ground.

Her heart suddenly tightened, her face suddenly changed, and she hurriedly leaned in.

"Qin Luo? Qin Luo?? Jiang Ning pushed Qin Luo twice, but he didn't react, her heart was inexplicably flustered, as if she was blocked by something.

However, at this moment, a group of black-clothed people broke through the window, Jiang Ning was instantly on alert, and his whole body became nervous.

"The Dog Emperor is taking his life!" One of the black-clothed men said sharply, and the long sword in his hand pointed directly at Qin Luo.

Almost at this moment's reaction, Jiang Ning didn't even have a chance to think, she rushed over, took out the dagger hidden between her sleeves, and fought with the man in black.

However, these men in black seemed to have some concerns, and did not have a head-on conflict with her, but only entangled with her all the time, where could Jiang Ning care so much at this time, and only fought with the men in black as if they were desperate.

The two sides were at a stalemate, and after a long while, the leader of the men in black said a word: "Hurry up!" ”

After saying this, the people in black no longer entangled with Jiang Ning, but only dodged Jiang Ning's attack and jumped out of the window to escape.

When the blacks fled, Jiang Ning was relieved, and the whole person seemed to be relieved, she turned her head to look at Qin Luo at this time, Qin Luo did not lie on the table, but looked at her with blazing eyes.

Jiang Ning was stunned: "You..."

"It turns out that you really know martial arts, what Concubine Li said is true, it turns out that I blamed the good people by mistake." Qin Luo deliberately accentuated the word "good person".

Qin Luo's eyes were like a sharp sword, knocking Jiang Ning into retreat, she frowned and raised her voice: "Could it be?" Was it a good show you guys did? ”

"If that's not the case, how can I know, it turns out that you can do martial arts." Qin Luo's eyes were questioning, he hoped that today's events were fake, and he didn't want his thoughts to be confirmed step by step.
