Chapter 21: Tacit Understanding
For Qin Zining today, the happiest time of the day is to lie in bed after dark and wait for Jun Yi's arrival.
Since Jun Yi visited the Qin Mansion that night, these days, he has also come every night, and because of this, Qin Zining has already ordered that there is no need to keep vigil after Ye Lan.
Just when Bai Dan entered the house with chicken soup, Qin Zining sensed that something was wrong from the fragrance on her body.
Later, he deliberately talked about not having to keep vigil, Bai Dan didn't know that Yelan had stopped keeping vigil for a long time, and he didn't give a reaction, which deepened Qin Zining's suspicions.
By the time Bai Dan reached out to take the soup bowl, Qin Zining was even more sure that this person was not Yelan.
Yelan has calluses on his hands because he holds a sword all year round, while Bai Dan's hands need to be carefully maintained because he wants to make a fake skin.
The difference between the two of them can be seen at a glance.
Qin Zining just lay on the bed and thought while waiting for someone to come.
After a while, there was a faint opening and closing sound from the window, and the sound of one more person breathing in the room was immediately there.
After Jun Yi came in through the window, he stood directly in front of the bed and quietly listened to Qin Zining's breathing through the tent, he was like this every time he came back these days.
The purpose of his coming was very simple, he just wanted to listen to Qin Zining's breathing for a few breaths, and wanted to know how her body was today?
These days, although the two of them have not communicated from beginning to end, one is at ease when he comes, and the other is happy when he comes.
It seems to be silent, but it seems that a thousand words are passed to each other in their breath.
With Jun Yi's martial arts attainments, he couldn't tell whether Qin Zining's breathing belonged to a state of wakefulness or a state of sleep.
When he came on the first day, he knew that Qin Zining was awake, at that time, he was a little flustered, and broke into the woman's boudoir in the dead of night, Jun Yi was afraid that Qin Zining would misunderstand that he was a prodigal son.
But that day, Qin Zining obviously didn't fall asleep, but he didn't react to his arrival, and Jun Yi understood what the other party meant.
In the days that followed, the two tacitly pretended to be asleep, and the other only didn't know that she was pretending to be asleep, so they enjoyed a moment of alone time.
A few breaths passed quietly, and Jun Yi left as usual, only to stop in front of the low couch where Qin Zining often sat when he exited the room, and then left.
When Jun Yi's figure completely disappeared in front of the window, Qin Zining got up from the bed, put on his shoes and walked to the low couch.
There was already a note on the small table on the low couch, Qin Zining picked it up, and a few words were written on it.
[Tomorrow, bring the medicine king Gu Ye Baicao to the door. 】
This note is neither signed, nor does it indicate who it is for, let alone why Ye Baicao came to the door, and which door did he go to?
But Qin Zining understood it at a glance.
Following.
Qin Zining had just woken up, and Bai Dan was already waiting outside the door, and as soon as he heard the movement in the house, he immediately came in with water to serve Qin Zining.
After a wait, Bai Dan, who was a maid for the first time, served well, and Qin Zining did not hesitate to praise people, "You can learn everything quickly with this hand!" ”
"Hehe, Miss, it's mainly because Sister Yelan teaches me well, she taught me several times in the morning."
Qin Zining smiled, "What about Night Blue?" ”
While combing Qin Zining's hair, Bai Dan replied: "Sister Yelan asked me to tell Miss that the secret guard who was sent to follow the second son of the Marquis of Changping had lost contact, and Sister Yelan went to the shadow guard camp to understand the situation." ”
Qin Zining's eyebrows furrowed involuntarily when she heard this, she never figured out how Zhao Kaizhong rushed back to Kyoto from Jiangnan in two days?
I was going to ask the secret guard who was following Zhao Kaizhong, but I didn't want to know that the secret guard lost contact.
The longer the contact is lost, the more likely it is that the secret guard has been killed, which is not what Qin Zi Ning wants to see.
The Flowing Shadow Guard, a guard team composed of Ming Guards and Dark Guards, was organized by Qin Zining himself, and everyone in it was personally selected by Qin Zining.
For Qin Zining, every Liuying guard is like a family member, and losing one is one less family member.
Bai Dan saw Qin Zining's expression through the mirror, and hurriedly opened his mouth to persuade: "Miss, you don't need to worry too much, it is Brother Yechen who is following the second son of the Marquis of Changping, and his light skills are the best in Weili, he is really discovered, and self-protection should be fine." ”
Qin Zining shook his head slightly, it was because Ye Chen's light skills were the best, and the longer he lost contact, the more worrying it became.
If he really has already escaped, he will definitely send the news back, and there is no news for a long time, either he has been killed, or he has not completely escaped.
In these two situations, no matter which one it is, Qin Zining doesn't want Yechen to really be in such a situation at the moment.
"Bai Dan, you go and spread the news, and let the people in the guard do their best to find Ye Chen's traces."
"Yes, the slave will comb your hair and go."
"No need, you go! I'll do it myself. ”
Qin Zining took the wooden comb from Bai Dan's hand as she spoke, and combed it up by herself, and Bai Dan saluted when he saw this.
After Bai Dan left, Qin Zining combed herself with a flying fairy bun, then got up and went to the courtyard of the Suihua County Lord.
Jun Yi said last night that he would bring Ye Baicao to the door today, he is a foreign man, and if he wants to enter the inner house, he naturally has to get permission, and he needs to go to see his grandmother before he can come to them.
Qin Zining didn't know when he would come, anyway, she had planned it, after going to A-Niang's courtyard for a while, she would go to her grandmother's courtyard with A-Niang as soon as possible to say goodbye, and she wouldn't come back if she went.
In this way, as long as Jun Yi comes to the door, she can see the other party for the first time.
When Qin Zining arrived at Songyuan, the Suihua County Lord had just gotten up, she slept late last night, and there was some black green now.
"Auntie, you can't rest well every day, if you continue like this, I really can't explain to Daddy!"
The Suihua County Lord smiled and pulled her to him, "Don't take care of yourself as soon as you have something, how many things can you do with your small body?"
I didn't have a good rest last night, but this time it's not for you, I'm happy that your eldest brother's marriage is a little eyebrow-raising. ”
At the banquet the day before yesterday, after hearing Qin Zining say that she liked Chen Wan'er who lived in the Marquis of Changping Mansion very much, and thought that Chen Wan'er and her eldest brother could be compatible, the county lord of Suihua moved a little thought.
Just thinking that Chen Wan'er has a heavy filial piety, I am afraid that it is not suitable, so I didn't think about it again, but I was reminded by Qin Zining, and the county lord of Suihua asked someone to inquire.
This inquiry is really appropriate!
This Chen Wan'er's filial piety period will expire next month, and it just so happens that the sons and daughters of the family will come back next month, which is just right.
