When Qin Yining and Ji Yun arrived in front of Ning Garden with an old oil-paper umbrella, they saw Qi Tai, who was wearing a sapphire blue cotton robe and holding an oil-paper umbrella.
Seeing Qin Yining come out, Qi Tai quickly put down the umbrella and saluted, "Fourth Miss."
"Quickly get up. Uncle An is an old man who has been with my father for many years. You must not salute me like this." Qi Tai's surname was An.
But Qi Tai refused to listen. After saluting respectfully, he smiled and said, "Marquis ordered this lowly one to come and deliver a message to you. He said that he has something important to tell you. Marquis has been summoned by His Majesty to the palace to talk and is not free. I'm afraid that he will only be free at night. Therefore, he specially ordered this lowly one to come and tell you to wait at the foot of the mountain tonight. Marquis will come to see you."
Qin Yining nodded and said with a smile, "I know. Did father say what it is? Why can't he take the time to come up the mountain? Old madam and everyone in the family miss father very much. "
"He's really too busy. To tell you the truth, this lowly one has been following master around. These days, this lowly one has been so busy that my feet hit the back of my head. " As Qi Tai spoke, he looked around. Seeing that there were no outsiders, he lowered his voice and said, "I'm afraid that His Majesty already has the intention to surrender. When it comes to such a big matter, it naturally involves many things. Marquis has been discussing with His Majesty all day long. Where would he find the time?"
Qin Yining nodded in understanding and sighed, "It's really difficult for my father. I'll have to trouble Uncle An to take care of my father and remind him to pay attention to his rest. "
"Yes, this lowly one will naturally pay attention."
"How is my father's health recently? How is concubine Cao? "Qin Yining was concerned about Qin Huaiyuan and Cao Yuqing again.
Qi Tai said with a smile, "Although master is hungry and full in the army, at least it's better than outside. Concubine Cao has been disguising herself as a man and staying by master's side to protect him. The two of them are like friends. They don't talk much, but they have a tacit understanding."
Qi Tai's words were telling Qin Yining in a roundabout way that Qin Huaiyuan and Cao Yuqing still had not done the deed of husband and wife.
Qi Tai was someone who stayed by his father's side all day, so he naturally wouldn't be wrong.
Qin Yining secretly sighed for his mother's sake and said with a smile, "I know. Thank you. I will wait at the foot of the mountain tonight....
"Alright, then this lowly one will take his leave. I still have to return to the Marquis' side to listen to his orders."
Qin Yining watched Qin's back then, "It seems that His Majesty has decided to His Majesty has decided decided to surrender's......... and Yining..... then. Yun said.
Ji Yun said, "Although I shouldn't say this, after this servant heard that His Majesty has decided to surrender, this servant's heart was really relieved."
Qin Yining said with understanding, "I understand. Let's not talk about anything else. At the very least, once the war is over, there will be no need to besiege the city. We will also have a way to survive. As for the country's interests, it's not something you and I can consider. "
"That's right. Moreover, once the war is over, Wang Ye will definitely come to look for Miss. Miss has suffered so much during this period of time. Wang Ye must be very distressed. "
Ji Yun thought about how much importance Pang Xiao attached to Qin Yining. Now, she could only imagine when the two of them met in the future. As a bystander, she felt that the scene of their reunion would definitely be very moving.
Qin Yining touched his burning ears. Although his expression didn't change, his heart was inexplicably excited.
Although this kind of excitement shouldn't come when the Dayan Imperial Court was about to be destroyed. However, Qin Yining felt that the country's foundation had already been hollowed out by the emperor emeritus's torment during his reign. Even if he didn't want to admit it, Qin Yining also knew that this kind of imperial court wouldn't last for long.
Now that he knew that the Yuchi Yan had the intention to surrender, Qin Yining felt a burst of light in his heart.
When the two of them entered Ning Yuan, they saw that the Sun Clan had been waiting for them for a long time.
Qin Yining went to the Sun Clan to tell them about Qin Yining's intentions. Then, he emphasized the situation of Qin Huaiyuan and Cao Yuqing when they were defending the city.
The Sun Clan's eyebrows relaxed when they heard this. Their worried hearts were also at ease. The irritation from the recent days of hunger also disappeared without a trace. They beamed with joy and asked, "Sister Yi, you can't swindle people."
"How could I swindle you? This is what Qin Yining said just now. He follows Father around all day, so he must know more than us. Unless Qin Yining is lying to me, I guarantee that there is nothing going on between Father and Concubine Cao. "
The Sun Clan's face was a little red. She felt a little embarrassed when her daughter saw how jealous she was. She coughed and said, "Little girl, what are you saying? Is your mother the kind of person who is easily jealous?"
"Of course not. I'm just worried for nothing." Qin Yining stuck out her tongue. The Sun Clan couldn't help but laugh.
Although the people in the courtyard were starving, they were in a good mood after hearing the Sun Clan's and Qin Yining's happy laughter. Their irritation and fear also settled down on such a rainy day.
Qin Yining spent the day as usual.
When it was evening, he brought Ji Yun and Bing Tang out of Ning Yuan.
As soon as he stepped out, he saw Mu Jinghu, who was as thin as a stick and dressed in a light blue robe, standing with his hands behind his back.
"Are you going out?" Mu Jinghu's delicate features were sharper because of his thinness. His eyes were very clear.
Qin Yining nodded and smiled. "My father is looking for me."
"Then I'll follow you in the dark."
Qin Yining said guiltily, "If Young Master Mu is tired, you can rest on the mountain. During this period of time, no one has enough to eat. No matter how high Young Master Mu's cultivation is, you're still a mortal. If you don't eat, you'll starve. If you don't eat, where do you get the strength? I'm really guilty. This time, I'm just going down the mountain to talk to my father. You don't have to follow me. "
Mu Jinghu frowned and thought for a moment. "That's not good. I promised Fox to protect you. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Besides, I eat better than you. You're a little girl and you're fine. I'm a martial artist who cultivates both internal and external energy. How can I be weaker than you? Or are you worried that I'll eavesdrop if I follow you? Then I'll hide in the dark. If you don't want me to come out, I won't come out. Is that okay? "
"Young Master Mu, what are you saying? Why would I be worried about eavesdropping? I'm just worried that you'll be tired. Forget it. Since that's the case, Young Master Mu can hide in the dark. If there's anything, you can also secretly listen to my signal. "
"Okay." Mu Jinghu nodded and smiled. "Then you guys can go."
Qin Yining knew that Mu Jinghu would naturally have his own way to keep up with him. Thus, he held hands with Bing Tang and Ji Yun and walked down Mt. Qingchun along the winding path while carrying a lantern.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, they saw a horse carriage parked on the road not far away. The wind lantern on the horse carriage swayed in the night wind. The air was filled with the moist fragrance of grass after the rain, making Qin Yining feel better.
The three of them walked quickly towards the horse carriage. The people standing in front of the horse carriage also came forward to welcome them.
