Qin Yining was rather surprised that Pang Xiao had come in person. Logically speaking, Pang Xiao should have avoided this place to avoid the Emperor's suspicion that he had eased relations with the Yan dynasty's surrendered subjects.
However, Qin Yining thought for a while, and understood a little. Pang Xiao wasn't a stupid person. So, he had probably prepared a show in advance before he came here.
Pang Xiao's eyes were burning with rage as he glared at Yuchi Yan. His eyes were almost burning through his frail body.
"It seems that the County Prince of Yan is quite comfortable being the ruler of a fallen country."
"You!" That one sentence was like a knife stabbing into his heart. Yuchi Yan's face turned red as he glared at Pang Xiao. He was so angry that his entire body trembled.
Pang Xiao laughed coldly. "The only one among the men of the Yuchi family that was acceptable was the Prince of Ning. He was a real man! He knew that his country was about to fall, and he would rather die on the battlefield than admit defeat! Although he died under my blade and I have the scars he gave me, I still admire and respect him from the bottom of my heart! As for you? "
Pang Xiao slowly walked closer. Whether it was his height or his aura, he suppressed Yuchi Yan so much that he could not raise his head.
"If you were a real man, you would have killed yourself to thank your ancestors. That way, I would have respected you for being a real man. You are a different kind of person from that incapable ruler.
"You've done well. Not only do you not feel the shame of being the ruler of a fallen country, you still have the nerve to flirt here? Do you still think you are the Emperor?
"Although I don't want this woman, why don't you take a look in the mirror and see what you look like now? Take care of people? You should take care of yourself first! "
Pang Xiao's voice was not loud, but every word hit Yuchi Yan's heart like a heavy hammer. It was about to turn his heart into meat paste. His face was burning. There was a voice in his head that agreed with Pang Xiao's words.
He was indeed as he said. He had no courage at all. He also knew that he did not have the courage of his Imperial Uncle …
He wanted to refute, but he could not find the right words. This was Da Zhou's territory. He was no longer the Emperor, but a County Prince. The arrogant and domineering person in front of him was a prince of a different surname. He had entered the cabinet because of his military achievements, and was able to participate in important decisions.
With such a comparison, he was simply too ashamed to show his face.
Qin Yining saw Pang Xiao was so mean and provocative. He could not help but feel angry and amused.
Pang Xiao was only 30% of her acting was 70% was 70% was probably due to jealousy.
She was already an adult, and she hadn't done anything out of line. Yuchi Yan had only asked a question, and with his current status, he couldn't do anything about it. How could this person be so calculative, like a child whose candy had been snatched away?
Qin Yining looked at Pang Xiao with a serious expression, but her beautiful eyes were full of smiles.
Pang Xiao felt his face heat up from her gaze. He also felt that he had gone a bit overboard, so he glared at her.
If he had not coincidentally met her today, he would not have deeply understood how popular his Sister Yi was!
When they attacked Dayan, the Yuchi Yan tried to please Qin Yining in every possible way. He even forcefully brought her into the palace with the intention of making her his.
If he had not thought of that idea, Qin Yining would have become one of the women in the Yuchi Yan's harem.
This silly girl, she still had the mood to look at him and smile?
Although that was what he thought, Pang Xiao's anger was mostly dissipated by her gentle gaze. He coughed and coldly glared at Qin Yining.
"What? Have you finally found a way out after leaving This King's mansion? Don't worry, if there is really someone who does not care about your past and is willing to marry you, This King will definitely give you a big gift to add to your dowry. It will not be a waste for us to know each other, but you can't become someone's concubine, right? If the woman that This King likes becomes someone's concubine, isn't that self-deprecating? "
"You, don't you dare go too far!" Yuchi Yan saw that Pang Xiao was humiliating Qin Yining and couldn't take it anymore. "If I report you, I don't know what Your Majesty's decision will be!"
"Your Majesty's decision is a matter for the future. It is not up to you to say anything!" Pang Xiao laughed mockingly.
Yuchi Yan was so angry that his face and ears turned red. Just as he was about to argue, Qin Huaiyuan, who had received Little Lu's report, arrived at the courtyard.
"Prince Zhongshun, what brings you here?" Qin Huaiyuan had a smile on his face and his voice was gentle.
Pang Xiao raised his eyebrows and said, "It's nothing. I just came to visit and greet an old friend."
His attitude was very arrogant, which was completely different from when he met Qin Huaiyuan before.
Qin Huaiyuan's eyes narrowed slightly. He already had many guesses in his heart.
The Sun Clan, the Sun Clan, the Second Master, his wife, and the Third Master, followed closely behind. However, they were dissatisfied with Pang Xiao's disrespectful attitude.
Especially the Sun Clan.
In Dayan, Pang Xiao used to call her "Mother-in-law". For the sake of Qin Yining, he did everything he could to flatter her incisively and vividly.
However, in such a short time, this person changed his attitude like flipping a book.
When they came back, they had heard some rumors about the relationship between Qin Yining and Pang Xiao. The Sun Clan did not take it seriously. Now, it seemed that she had been too optimistic.
The Sun Clan was so angry that their faces and ears turned red. They suppressed their anger and did not speak.
Qin Huaiyuan's attitude was still gentle. He said politely, "I see. I didn't know when Prince Zhongshun and the County King of Yan became friends. Moreover, there is a new way for friends to greet each other. Or is this the custom of the capital? This old man has little talent and knowledge. This is the first time I have experienced it. "
Pang Xiao could not help but sigh inwardly at Qin Huaiyuan's watertight words. If he became enemies with this person, his life would be very difficult.
Although he thought so, he still looked very arrogant.
"Lord Qin, you will have many opportunities to experience it in the future."
When Qin Huaiyuan saw Pang Xiao's attitude and tone, he could already confirm that Pang Xiao's attitude was indeed problematic.
Even if a person wanted to change, they would not change so much in such a short time. He looked at Qin Yining again. As a father, he naturally knew about the relationship between Qin Yining and Pang Xiao. Pang Xiao's provocation did not reach Qin Yining's eyes.
He did not know what these two children were plotting.
Qin Huaiyuan was certain of his guess. He shook his head in amusement and said with a face full of anger, "Prince Zhongshun is busy. This old man will not keep you any longer. Please. "Qin Huaiyuan cupped his hands and called for Qin Yining." Sister Yi, let's go back. "
Qin Yining bowed her head and followed behind her family. When Yuchi Yan saw her lonely appearance, he felt as if someone had reached into his chest and was twisting and twisting, almost digging out his heart and lungs.
Yuchi Yan had never craved power as much as he did now.
If he could have supreme power, how could he allow Pang Xiao to be so presumptuous? He would not be humiliated in front of others. When Qin Yining was humiliated, he could not even stand up for her.
When the Qin family returned to their rooms, Pang Xiao and Yuchi Yan could not continue to stay in the courtyard.
Pang Xiao smiled provocatively at Yuchi Yan and said in a low voice, "What, are you not satisfied?"
Yuchi Yan gritted his teeth and did not bother to answer.
Pang Xiao said, "Do you know that there is karma in this world? What you are suffering now, who knows if it is not the result of your father's evil deeds?
"When your father indulged your Imperial Mother to eat Qin Si's flesh, what did you do? After you took over power, what did you do to her? Now you are acting like an infatuated person, don't you feel ashamed? "
Yuchi Yan was a weak scholar. Before he was born, he had always been in contact with people who were kind and elegant. This was the first time someone had pointed at his nose and humiliated him. What the other party said was the truth.
Seeing that Yuchi Yan did not speak, Pang Xiao smiled and said, "Oh right, there is another news. Seeing that you were once the Emperor of Dayan, I will tell you this matter is related to the Dayan."
Yuchi Yan suddenly looked up at Pang Xiao.
Pang Xiao said in a low voice, "Your Retired Emperor took the money from the internal treasury and the national treasury, as well as the money from the rice and grain tax, and hid them all in one place. Do you know that?"
Yuchi Yan heard this and suddenly opened his eyes wide.
Pang Xiao said with a smile, "Don't worry, Your Majesty has ordered the troops to split into several groups. We must find the whereabouts of that batch of treasures. This King also thanks you on behalf of Your Majesty for your selfless dedication. I believe that in the near future, we will definitely find that treasure. At that time, I will hold a banquet to thank you properly. "
Yuchi Yan thought about what his Imperial Father had done in the past. His whole body trembled as if he had fallen into an icehouse.
His Imperial Father had hidden such a large amount of silver, not to accumulate strength for the Dayan Dynasty, but for himself to be able to make a comeback one day.
Why did he end up with such a father!
The Retired Emperor refused to use that money for the people, refused to use it for the country, and insisted on keeping it for himself. Now that the Da Zhou people had sent people to search everywhere, wouldn't the Dayan Dynasty's silver soon fall into Da Zhou's treasury?
Yuchi Yan's face turned from white to red, and from red to purple. There was a fishy taste in his throat, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Pang Xiao seemed to be too lazy to continue talking to Yuchi Yan. He clasped his hands behind his back and looked in the direction of the main house. Only then did he walk away with an air of arrogance, humming a festive tune.
Yuchi Yan looked at Pang Xiao's back, and countless voices clamored in his mind. He resisted the discomfort and quickly returned to his courtyard with Eunuch Lu's help. As soon as he entered the door, he vomited. There were traces of blood in his vomit, which frightened Li Yanyan and Gu Chang. They hurriedly ordered people to inform their superiors to call for a doctor.
While the Yuchi Yan army was in chaos, Qin Yining followed Qin Huaiyuan to the rear courtyard for a walk.
The surroundings were empty, and the father and daughter stood in the courtyard looking at the snowy scenery. If someone came close to eavesdrop, they would be discovered very quickly.
Qin Huaiyuan opened his mouth and asked, "Prince Zhongshun deliberately came here today to cause trouble?"
Qin Yining nodded and said with a smile, "It wasn't just this time. Even when he took me back when we entered the city, and when I went to complain to the Emperor, they were all set up on purpose."
At this point, Qin Yining couldn't help but say with some apprehension, "Father, my relationship with Pang Zhixi isn't as bad as it seems on the surface. Are you angry with me?"
Qin Huaiyuan stood with his hands behind his back, and his eyes drooped as he muttered, "Father won't be angry with you."
