When Qin Huaiyuan saw his daughter like this, how could he not understand?
Pang Xiao was born with such appearance, boldness, and strategy. He could be said to be a hero who could "bring peace to the world with a pen and settle the universe with a horse with martial arts". He was willing to treat Qin Yining with care and had saved her many times. Qin Yining was not a cold-hearted person. How could she be indifferent?
After carefully looking at his daughter, Qin Huaiyuan could not help but shake his head with a smile. No wonder a hero like Pang Xiao could not pass this hurdle.
"Forget it. I won't ask about what happened between the two of you. You are a smart child. You should know what you are doing."
Qin Yining was surprised, but also a little surprised. "Father, you don't object?"
"Object to what? He is a fierce and ambitious person. He is worthy of you. "
"However, there are simply too many barriers between the two of us."
Qin Huaiyuan naturally understood what he meant. He smiled with his hands behind his back. "Let's not talk about other things for now. Let's talk about Pang Zhongzheng's death. If he was really a person who would not let go of this grudge, I would not be standing here alive right now. Back then, I did try to drive a wedge between them, but Little Wang Ye must be clear in his heart. If the Emperor of Northern Ji had not been suspicious of Pang Zhongzheng, he would not have used this as a pretext to make a fuss. "
"And perhaps you don't know Little Wang Ye's background."
When Qin Yining heard this, he looked at Qin Huaiyuan curiously.
Qin Huaiyuan said, "Pang Zhixi's mother was from the Yao Clan. She was a servant girl in the Pang Family. Pang Zhongzheng once had sex after drinking and forced the Yao Clan. Pang Zhongzheng's wife was extremely jealous. When she found out that Pang Zhongzheng had taken a fancy to the Yao Clan, she did not wait to be promoted to concubine. In order to prevent the birth of a concubine's son, she secretly sent people to assassinate them. Fortunately, the Yao Clan was smart and deceived them."
"Pang Zhongzheng never knew when the Yao Clan he had sex with was sent away, so he did not know that she was later pregnant and that their family ruined his plans. Until his death, Pang Zhongzheng did not know that he had a bloodline in this world. "
"That is to say, Young Prince Pang has no feelings for his biological father and official mother."
Qin Huaiyuan nodded......... and he was forced to join the army when he was young.......................
..........
Qin Huaiyuan sighed and said, "How do you think he became a murderous god who kills people step by step? He had originally followed his maternal grandfather's family and his birth mother to live a peaceful life in a small town. His maternal grandfather's family had used the money that Yao shi had brought back to open a small restaurant. Although it could not be considered wealthy, they did not have to worry about food and clothing. However, the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, Li Qitian, was working hard to overthrow the tyranny of Northern Ji. He used Pang Zhongzheng's former subordinates to find the Yao Clan. When he saw Pang Zhixi, he was able to confirm his identity just by looking at his appearance.
"At that time, Emperor Zhou was just the leader of a peasant uprising. He didn't have much rallying power, so he forced Pang Zhixi into the army. He used threats and promises to coax Pang Zhixi into joining the army. In fact, he just wanted to use the banner of revenge for the country's General to recruit soldiers. When Young Prince Pang joined the army, he was directly kidnapped from his home. At first, he was unwilling, but later, he slowly accepted the reality."
"So, he did not join the army of his own accord."
It turned out that he had such a past.
A fifteen-year-old boy who had been living a peaceful life was suddenly told that he was the descendant of General Pang and was pulled into the army by the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty. What he had to face was definitely not just a bloody battlefield, but also a lot of deceit.
Li Qitian used Pang Zhongzheng's banner to overthrow Northern Ji. In fact, he did not care about Pang Xiao's life or death.
In that kind of environment, Pang Xiao must have experienced a lot of hardships in order to survive.
He learned martial arts, learned how to kill, and learned how to deceive. He trained himself in one battle after another, learned the art of war, bought people's hearts, and developed his own power. Step by step, he reached a point where even the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty did not dare to kill him directly. Instead, the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty wanted to give him the title of the only king with a different surname in Da Zhou.
The hardships in this.
Just by analyzing it like this, she felt that it could crush people.
However, Pang Xiao had already done it.
He had never received a day of fatherly love, and he had no feelings for his biological father. However, his fate was controlled by his background.
Qin Yining suddenly understood what Qin Huaiyuan meant.
Pang Xiao probably had no feelings for his biological father at all. Perhaps he even resented him. In addition to the fact that he had no choice, his biological mother had also suffered a lot of grievances.
Therefore, Pang Xiao could calmly and objectively think about what happened back then. That was why he did not arbitrarily sentence Qin Huaiyuan to death.
After some analysis, Qin Yining inexplicably felt a lot more relaxed.
"I didn't expect father to know so much about Little Wang Ye."
"He has feelings for my daughter. Of course, I will investigate it clearly," Qin Huaiyuan said bluntly, "I can't just watch him plot against my daughter for revenge."
Qin Yining's face flushed, but her heart was jumping with joy.
She trusted her father's ability. If her father said so, it meant that Pang Xiao did not get close to her for revenge. He was sincere to her.
However, if she did not consider the family feud and national hatred …
She could not help but sigh. What was the use of thinking so much now? She should just let nature take its course. Before Pang Xiao left, he especially told her that he would take care of everything.
Qin Yining did not realize that she had subconsciously accepted Pang Xiao's possessive desire for her. She also accepted the fact that Pang Xiao wanted to marry her after everything was settled.
Qin Huaiyuan pondered for a moment before he said, "You should return to the residence. I've already arranged for Miss Tang to return to the residence. Just say that I'm the one who's sending you off. You don't have to take what others say to heart."
"Yes." Qin Yining nodded and said, "Father, let's get in the carriage. I will ride White Cloud back."
Qin Huaiyuan nodded. He watched as Qin Yining took the reins from his attendant and looked at the handsome white horse. He sighed again with mixed feelings. "His plan is really unparalleled."
"Yes, he has also given us a big gift." Qin Yining mounted the horse. She did not understand Qin Huaiyuan's double entendre.
Qin Huaiyuan shook his head and did not say the rest of his words. "Go back."
"Yes. Father, daughter will go back first. "
Qin Yining rode White Cloud back to the estate in a light mood.
Qin Huaiyuan stood in the same place and thought for a moment. Then he went to see the Emperor and told him that the Tatan had assassinated Prince Zhongshun and that Prince Zhongshun had escaped from Dayan. He was furious.
When the Emperor heard this, he did not say anything.
The next day, Qin Huaiyuan reported this matter to the Emperor during the imperial court meeting. He asked the Emperor to thoroughly investigate how the Tatan had found out the time and route of Pang Xiao's departure. He concluded that there must be a Tatan spy among the people who knew about Prince Zhongshun's itinerary.
The Emperor was originally afraid of Guozhang Cao. In addition, Cao Yuqing presented the evidence that Guozhang Cao had secretly colluded with the Tatan princess. She also presented the possible consequences of the Tatan's pursuit of Pang Xiao. The combination of these three factors made the Emperor so angry that he reprimanded Guozhang Cao during the imperial court meeting.
The Minister of Personnel, Wang Yuxian, was a capable student of Guozhang Cao. Ten days later, the Emperor found an excuse to remove him from his position.
In less than half a month, one of Guozhang Cao's arms was cut off. His position in the imperial court was greatly reduced.
Qin Huaiyuan was a meritorious official in the peace talks and the capable official who impeached Guozhang Cao. In addition, he always had a good reputation. At this time, he was in the limelight.
Qin Yining looked at the Zhaoyun Agency's account book while listening to Master Zhong talk about the secret information. He could not help but frown.
Seeing her like this, Master Zhong stopped smiling and asked, "Boss, is there something wrong?"
Qin Yining shook his head and said, "I always feel that things are not so simple. The Cao family has been able to stand for so many years. They are not people who can be easily bullied. I'm afraid that they still have some tricks up their sleeves."
Just as Qin Yining expected, at this time, in the imperial study, the Empress had her head bowed and was sobbing as she murmured in a delicate voice,
"… … This concubine's maternal family has very few male descendants, and my father only has a few disciples. If he became a poor official, others would not laugh at our Cao family for not having a successor. We only ask for more care. However, Your Majesty has removed Wang Yuxian from her position. Isn't this making things difficult for this concubine's father … … This concubine has been laughed at by Consort Shu and Consort Xiang. These days, this concubine hasn't been able to eat or sleep well. Look, this concubine has wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.
