Qin Yining put down the bowl of medicine and hurriedly pulled Pang Xiao's hand. She was like an ant on a hot pan, trying to find a place to hide him.
Pang Xiao was amused by her appearance. He had seen her calm and gentle side when she was steady and resourceful. He already felt that she was very lovable. He didn't expect her to be even cuter when she was flustered!
Qin Yining glared at him. "You're still laughing! Look at the situation now! Why don't you hide in the cupboard … No, you can't get in with your size. You'd better hide in the washroom! "
As she said this, she pushed him into the washroom. She didn't forget to whisper, "You must not make a sound. If my mother finds out, it won't be fun if she makes a fuss!"
Pang Xiao saw how nervous she was and chuckled as he walked. "Don't we look like a pair of wild lovebirds who were caught having a private meeting?"
"What are you talking about? Look at how dignified you are. Why are you talking about such things?" Qin Yining hid him behind the door of the washroom. "I told you to hide for your own good."
"I know, I know." Pang Xiao hugged Qin Yining and pecked her on the lips.
Qin Yining's face flushed red. She wanted to push him away, but she was afraid that he would burst his wound. She didn't dare to struggle too much and could only pinch his arm. "Stop fooling around. I can hear my mother's footsteps going upstairs!"
"It doesn't hurt at all." Pang Xiao laughed happily and stole a kiss on her forehead. Only then did he let her go with satisfaction.
Qin Yining rolled her eyes at him and patted her hot cheeks. She adjusted her clothes and adjusted her mood as she went out.
She couldn't let the Sun Clan find out about Pang Xiao.
This was not just a matter of reputation, but also involved the relationship between the two countries.
She could see war and love as two things, but others might not. If Pang Xiao, who was the commander-in-chief of the army, was caught, it would be a great event for Dayan. She couldn't guarantee that her family wouldn't hand him over.
Since he dared to take the risk to see her, she couldn't let him be in danger because of her.
By the time they reached the door, Qin Yining had already adjusted his emotions. The Sun Clan had also gone upstairs under the care of Mother Jin and Bing Tang.
"Mother, why are you here at this time?" Qin Yining smiled and held the Sun Clan's arm. The two of them sat down in the outer room.
"I'm bored, so I came to talk to you." The Sun Clan member looked at Qin Yining's face. "Have you not recovered yet? I see that Bing Tang is brewing medicine again. "
"It's okay. It's a tonic." Qin Yining smiled and looked at Bing Tang.
Bing Tang cooperated and explained, "Madam, there's no need to worry. As long as Miss's body is nourished well, she will soon be as lively as a dragon and as lively as a tiger."
The Sun Clan member nodded in relief and said, "Since the medicine is ready, you should eat it." As she spoke, she thoughtfully handed the bowl of medicine that was meant for Pang Xiao to Qin Yining.
Pang Xiao, who was in the cleaning room, was a little worried.
Ji Yun and Bing Tang looked at each other.
Ji Yun and Pang Xiao were the same. They were nervous because they didn't know if Qin Yining would be harmful to her body after taking the medicine.
Bing Tang, on the other hand, found it funny.
Although Qin Yining was usually very straightforward when taking medicine and didn't even frown, she knew that Qin Yining was actually very afraid of bitterness. She had once asked her if she could add some licorice to the medicine.
The two servant girls stared at Qin Yining, waiting to see how she would respond.
Qin Yining calmly placed the bowl on the table and said, "I'll eat it later. This medicine is too hot. Also, I just took another medicine. Bing Tang said that these two medicines can't be taken so close together."
Ji Yun sighed in relief and secretly praised Qin Yining's quick-wittedness.
Bing Tang lowered her head and began to hold back her laughter.
Qin Yining pretended not to see the expressions of the two servant girls. She smiled and asked the Sun Clan member, "Mother is usually asleep at this time. Are you worried about father today?"
"Yes." The Sun Clan member nodded gloomily.
After Duke An Guogong, Li Mian, took over as the Grand Marshal of the Armed Forces, he began to avoid battle. The Tiger Army was incomparably valiant, and Pang Xiao was good at strategizing. Compared to him, Duke An Guogong was much less courageous than Prince Ning. In the past month, he had suffered countless losses. More than 30,000 of the 350,000 soldiers defending the city had been whittled down by the 100,000 soldiers of the Tiger Army.
Even if Yuchi Yan wasn't good at scheming, he could see that this couldn't go on. Therefore, he appointed Qin Huaiyuan as his military advisor yesterday and went to the outer city to assist Duke An Guogong, Li Mian, in battle.
After Qin Huaiyuan set out, Cao Yuqing quietly took the bundle and chased after him.
When Qin Manor was in trouble, silver-masked spies came to protect it. When Qin Manor turned the tables, Cao Yuqing also led the silver-masked spies to help. Now, the people outside didn't know, but the Qin Family members all knew that this delicate beauty was actually the leader of the silver-masked spies under the Retired Emperor.
The Sun Clan was very happy that Qin Huaiyuan had an expert like Cao Yuqing by his side to protect him.
However, when they thought about how Cao Yuqing was young, beautiful, and had outstanding martial arts skills. Moreover, she was sincere to Qin Huaiyuan, it was hard to say whether she wouldn't go through trials and tribulations with him on the battlefield. This made the Sun Clan's heart sour and bitter, so much so that they couldn't sleep. However, she wouldn't tell her daughter about such an embarrassing matter.
When Qin Yining saw the Sun Clan's expression change in an instant, he had already guessed most of what had happened.
However, as a junior, she couldn't interfere in the matters between her parents. Her father wasn't someone who didn't take concubines. Now that the Cao Family had been destroyed and the Retired Emperor had been put under house arrest by the Yuchi Yan because of the silver, Cao Yuqing had become a rootless duckweed. It was true that she had the silver-masked spies in her hands, but now she wholeheartedly belonged to Qin Huaiyuan. And the Retired Emperor didn't seem to be prepared to take back his silver-masked spies.
Her father was in the prime of his life. He was brave, resourceful, and handsome. Cao Yuqing had been deeply in love with her father for many years. It could be seen that she treated her father wholeheartedly. In the past, she was restrained by the Retired Emperor, but now that there were no more worries, it wasn't unacceptable for her to become soft.
However, no matter how reasonable this matter was, it was still painful for the official wife.
She wanted to persuade her mother, but since the Sun Clan didn't say anything, she didn't want to make them sad. She could only say, "Mother, don't worry. I heard that these two days, Duke An has begun to avoid the war. Father naturally isn't in any danger. Even if there is a war, Father doesn't have to go to the front lines. You can rest assured. "
The Sun Clan nodded. She forced a smile and chatted with Qin Yining for a while. However, she lost interest in talking after a while and left with Mother Jin.
Qin Yining sent the Sun Clan downstairs. When he returned to his room, his mood was a bit heavy. When he reached the door, he remembered that Pang Xiao was still in the room. He turned around and said to Ji Yun and Bing Tang, "You two go rest. You don't need to sleep tonight."
Bing Tang raised his eyebrows and smiled at Qin Yining. That smile was very teasing, causing Qin Yining's face to turn red.
Ji Yun also held back her laughter, but her actions were very loyal to her master. She bowed and pulled Bing Tang away.
When Qin Yining pushed open the door, he was actually a bit nervous.
