Pang Xiao naturally wouldn't look down on women. Sister Yi was a woman, Qiu Feishan was a woman, Cao Yuqing was a woman, and Sister Yi's grandmother, who was the previous leader of the Qingtian Alliance, was also a woman. Even Tian Jizi was a woman.
If women really used wisdom, they wouldn't lose to men. Because they were very careful and sensitive, many things they did were very unexpected. Although the harem didn't interfere in politics, they were all Li Qitian's family members. What they said in private was a secret to outsiders, but to them, it was just a family matter.
Outsiders didn't know about Qin Yining, but Pang Xiao knew that Qin Yining had most likely arrived in Japan at this time, and might have already met with the local famous people. Sister Yi had the treasure in her hands, and more than a thousand of his subordinates, so her safety shouldn't be a problem, right?
It was just that the situation on the sea was changing rapidly, and he was really worried.
In short, if someone wasn't under his eyes, he couldn't be at ease.
Pang Xiao picked up the wine bowl, raised his head, and drank a big mouthful.
Ji Zeyu had always known about Pang Xiao's deep feelings for Qin Yining, and also expected that he would have such a reaction, so he advised: "Don't drink alone. Since you're worried about her, arrange more people to help her.
”
After thinking for a while, he said: "She's a woman, but she followed you through life and death, and ruined her family. She's also done her best for you. You have to treat her well too. If there's any danger, it's also good to arrange for her to leave early. "
Pang Xiao smiled when he heard this. He nodded and said, "You're right. I'll pay attention to these. But looking at the current situation, I'm safe for the time being. Your Majesty also doesn't have the heart to worry about me. "
He said this to him with complete trust, and Ji Zeyu was inexplicably moved.
Although he had been running to Pang Xiao's place these days, in fact, when Pang Xiao had just returned, he had hesitated. He was worried that Pang Xiao would suspect him. After all, he had always been in the capital and had many opportunities to interact with the emperor. Although his power was also weakened and he could not use it, his situation was much better than Pang Xiao's. If he were in Pang Xiao's shoes, it would be hard to guarantee that he would not be suspicious of him.
But in the past few days,
Pang Xiao still trusted him as much as before, and they still talked about everything.
Ji Zeyu looked cold, but deep down, he valued friendship. Pang Xiao treated him so sincerely, so he would only repay her a thousand times over.
"If you need anything, you can look for me at any time." Ji Zeyu smiled sincerely. "I also have some people outside."
Pang Xiao could not help but be moved when he heard this. He patted his shoulder with his big hand. "Of course, I won't be polite with you."
Ji Zeyu said, "Also, you have to be careful. If your subordinates are familiar faces, you have to try your best to avoid them. If Your Majesty's people notice your people, then secretly protecting them will be meaningless. At that time, it will be equivalent to openly opposing Your Majesty. It won't do you any good to fall out with him."
"You're right. I'll be more careful. "Pang Xiao felt a little guilty. After all, he could not tell Ji Zeyu about the things that happened at home. Ji Zeyu treated him sincerely, but he had to keep a secret. He felt very guilty.
But after all, it involved the lives of the whole family. It was not that he did not trust Ji Zeyu, but it was just a precaution.
So he could only wait for everything to be over before he came to apologize to him.
Pang Xiao sighed and poured wine for the two of them. The two of them ate another bowl.
The two of them acted as usual. Ji Zeyu left after a long time.
After Ji Zeyu left, Pang Xiao instructed Tang Xiu, "Pay close attention to the situation outside. Once Wangfei appears, immediately send someone to secretly receive her. Tell Wangfei that Your Majesty has arranged spies."
Tang Xiu nodded and said with a serious expression, "Wang Ye, Your Majesty arranged spies to search for Wangfei. Could it be that he has the intention to kill her?"
"It's hard to say."
Pang Xiao's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and the corner of his mouth raised in a mocking smile. "If he makes a move on a woman …"
Then Your Majesty will really lose all his character.
Tang Xiu said, "Your Majesty might just want to capture Wangfei to keep you in check.
”
"Of course, under normal circumstances, Your Majesty would not want to kill Sister Yi. But nothing is absolute. If there really is a sudden change that causes Your Majesty to have the intention to kill,
That is also uncontrollable.
So you must not let Your Majesty capture her. "
Tang Xiu saw that Pang Xiao's brows were furrowed so tightly that it could squash a fly. He consoled, "Wang Ye, don't worry. Wangfei is resourceful. She has Sir Xie and Sir Xu by her side. She might encounter Your Majesty's spies. Before the other party can make a move, the other party will be captured."
Speaking of this, Tang Xiu remembered Qin Yining's past actions. He couldn't help but laugh. "Those people who thought they were strong and looked down on Wangfei, didn't they all suffer losses? Wangfei is really a heroine. Even the people by Wangfei's side are different. "
Pang Xiao was amused by Tang Xiu's silly look. He glanced at him and said, "You miss that girl Ji Yun, don't you?"
Tang Xiu's face heated up, but he said generously, "I miss her. Doesn't Wang Ye miss Wangfei as well? Wangfei has long been Wang Ye's person. You still miss her? Ji Yun won't agree to me. Wangfei has so many outstanding talents by her side. If Ji Yun takes a fancy to someone else, where will I go to cry? "
Pang Xiao was amused and laughed out loud. He patted Tang Xiu with his big hand and said, "Don't worry. If you're willing to treat Yuanyun sincerely, I'll make this iceman for you later. I'll help you talk to the princess."
Tang Xiu nodded. "Then I'll have to count on Wang Ye. If Wangfei doesn't like me and feels that I've wronged Ji Yun, then Wang Ye will have to use some pretty boy tactics."
Pang Xiao was amused by Tang Xiu's shameless words again. His mood improved greatly. He patted Tang Xiu's shoulder to indicate for him to make the arrangements. Then he went to rest in the study.
Pang Xiao looked at the room that was gradually brightening under the first rays of the morning sun. He thought about Qin Yining's current situation and found it difficult to sleep.
At this time, the morning sun also came to the docks of Water Swamp Country.
Qin Yining didn't wear any makeup today, and his hair was only tied up with a white jade hairpin. He was dressed in plain clothes. He got up early in the morning and went to an empty cabin on the ship. Sakurai's ashes and memorial tablet were resting here.
Qin Yining lit incense for her, then clasped his hands together and closed his eyes. "Sakurai, I've finally kept my promise and can bring you back to your hometown to be buried. May your spirit in heaven see Ishikawa Daimyo apologize and repent for your sins. May he clear your name in front of all the people of Water Swamp Country so that you can rest in peace. May you live in a peaceful country and a wealthy family, living a stable and happy life. "
As Qin Yining spoke, he bowed three times.
"Wangfei. The people of Water Swamp Country are gathering at the docks. Ishikawa Daimyo also brought his family and samurai with him. "
"I understand."
Qin Yining stood up and looked at Sakurai's memorial tablet with a smile. When he turned to leave, his expression was solemn again.
