Qin Yining loved Pang Xiao's confident and domineering appearance the most. Whether it was to her or those who followed him, he was like a ray of sunshine, hot and bright, bringing them hope. So when he showed that kind of sympathy towards her, Qin Yining felt guilty.
"So, I won't accompany you to see Xiong Jinshui. I'll just stay here. With Xiong Jinshui's intelligence, he won't ask anything if he doesn't see me coming. Besides, he doesn't have the guts to search for me in the inner residence. Once he's in front of Your Majesty, it won't matter even if he waits. By then, I'll have already led people to the treasure. "Qin Yining smiled freely.
Pang Xiao smiled and tapped the tip of her nose. "What a clever girl."
The two of them huddled together and quickly discussed what to do next. Qin Yining said, "You should go quickly too. After all, he's Your Majesty's head eunuch. It's not good to make him wait and annoy him. Some people don't taste sweet when they make candy, but sour when they make vinegar. It's better to be kind to others. "
"I understand. Then I'll go out. "Pang Xiao looked at Qin Yining and retreated with his hands behind his back.
Qin Yining maintained his smile and waved his hand at him. "Don't worry."
The words "don't worry" made the two of them feel sad and reluctant at the same time.
They missed each other, but how could they truly let go of their hearts? How many chances did they have in life that they could be sure to meet again after parting?
Qin Yining's nose was sore, but he repeatedly told himself that he couldn't let Pang Xiao worry at this time. So he only smiled and said goodbye to him.
Pang Xiao saw that the corners of her eyes seemed to be dyed with light pink rouge. She looked like she was about to cry, but she kept smiling at him. He understood what she meant. He gritted his teeth, turned around, and walked out in large strides.
Pang Xiao came to the courtyard and took two deep breaths. His hatred for Li Qitian rose to an unprecedented level. If he hadn't done this time and time again, would they have been forced to separate again and again? How could they be so far apart from their families?
He would end this sooner or later!
"Mr. Xie, Mr. Xu.
Pang Xiao saluted the two elders guarding the door. "Sister Yi will be entrusted to the two of you."
Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi were shocked. Just now, they were whispering outside who Wang Ye would bring to Huichuan. They did not expect that Wang Ye did not plan to bring either of them.
"Wang Ye …"
Pang Xiao raised her hand and stopped Xie Yue.
"I'm going to see His Majesty this time because the situation is not yet certain. I'll only bring a few guards and the ceremonial rites bestowed by Your Majesty. If necessary, we can quickly evacuate. If nothing unexpected happens, I will be content to remain under Your Majesty's eye. Sister Yi has to coordinate everything outside, and she has to go to the East Camp. It's inevitable that she can't do what she wants. Please help her. "
Both of them were extremely smart, so naturally, they immediately reacted.
"Wang Ye intends to temporarily hand over the outside matters to Princess Consort?"
"That's what I have in mind." Pang Xiao smiled and nodded.
Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
"That's good too. Princess Consort is intelligent and very keen on government affairs. She is also quite resourceful. I think Princess Consort can handle the outside matters well during this period. "
Xu Weizhi also said, "With the two of us assisting her, Wang Ye can rest assured of Princess Consort's safety."
In fact, both of them admired Qin Yining's intelligence. If Pang Xiao asked them to accompany Qin Yining to do something, they would agree. However, they were unwilling to acknowledge Qin Yining as their master and obey her commands. No matter how powerful Qin Yining was, she was still a woman.
However, Pang Xiao was decisive in her actions. Once she made a decision, she wouldn't change it easily. Since she had spoken to them, it meant that she had made up her mind.
Moreover, in the current situation, it was indeed the best for Wang Ye to lead Wang Ye's men outside to obtain the treasure and preserve their strength. It was also a strong check on Li Qitian's side. At least, it could make Li Qitian think twice before attacking Pang Xiao. It was better than Wang Ye and Princess Consort being trapped together.
With the two of them, Princess Consort wouldn't cause any trouble.
The two of them had worked together for many years. Most of the time, they could understand each other by exchanging glances. Without any objection, they accepted Pang Xiao's arrangement.
"Wang Ye, you have to be more careful this time. It's best to preserve your strength. If you encounter a critical moment, you have to prioritize your own safety first. "
"This old man also has the same idea. Wang Ye, there is no harm in softening your stance. Your Majesty cherishes his reputation. He won't act rashly before investigating thoroughly. This period of time is just right for us to prepare. "
"The two sirs are extremely right." Pang Xiao smiled and said, "Don't worry. This King will definitely act carefully. "
After the two of them received Pang Xiao's assurance, they relaxed and bowed, saying, "Wang Ye, take care."
"The two sirs, take care."
Pang Xiao bid farewell to the two of them. Presumably, with them here, Qin Yining's actions would be smoother. At least, the subordinates who weren't familiar with Qin Yining wouldn't make private decisions like Tao Hanshan and hurt Qin Yining.

At this time, Xiong Jinshui was sitting in the front hall and drinking tea. His expression was calm, without the slightest hint of anxiety.
Because he was Your Majesty's subordinate, he was respected no matter where he went. Therefore, Wang Ye didn't immediately come out to meet him when he received the imperial edict today. This made Tang Xiu very uneasy. She stood in front of the door with her body tensed up. Her mind was churning with emotions, thinking about how she should deal with it if something were to happen.
Right at this time, Tang Xiu saw Pang Xiao's slender figure striding over. For a moment, the nervousness in her heart disappeared. She hurriedly strode over to greet him and bowed, saying, "Wang Ye."
Xiong Jinshui's ears were sharp. When he heard this voice, he quickly put down his teacup, stood up, and walked to the door. He bowed and said, "This servant pays respects to Wang Ye."
"Eunuch Xiong, there's no need to be so polite. It's This King's fault for making you wait for so long."
Xiong Jinshui had been serving Li Qitian all day. At this time, there wasn't the slightest trace of water on Pang Xiao's body. His hair wasn't wet either. It was obvious that he hadn't bathed just now. However, this wasn't something that a eunuch like him could ask. If he was picky about this, Wang Ye could naturally say that he dried his hair before coming out. At that time, it would be unpleasant.
Therefore, Xiong Jinshui didn't care about this. He smiled and said, "Wang Ye, Your Majesty ordered this servant to bring you back to Huichuan County."
Pang Xiao's eyes widened in surprise, "Did Your Majesty arrange an errand for me? To be honest, This King has been idle during this period of time. After his injuries gradually healed, he became more and more restless. If Your Majesty has an errand for This King, it's exactly what he wants! "
Xiong Jinshui carefully looked at Pang Xiao's expression. Seeing that his joy didn't seem to be fake, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart and said, "Wang Ye, this servant doesn't know what errand for Your Majesty. He only ordered you to quickly go and meet him. Wang Ye, please set off with this servant immediately. "
"Meet him? Your Majesty went to Huichuan County? To inspect the Imperial Mausoleum? "
