After the father and daughter analyzed the situation, they both understood what was going on.
Li Qitian secretly instructed Li Helan to use Li Helan to instigate Madame Lu to achieve the current situation. At the same time, he was also secretly observing which side had the upper hand.
"Once the Family Qin and the Lu family start fighting, not only will the Imperial Court be muddied, but more importantly, even if the Family Qin is unexpectedly powerful and can suppress the aristocratic families, Your Majesty won't need Your Majesty's help. Your Majesty will still be able to benefit."
Qin Yining's eyes sparkled when she said this. She felt even more admiration for Your Majesty.
"If the Family Qin and the Lu family become enemies, they will need a powerful backer. Your Majesty is the best candidate for this backer. He will still be able to achieve his goal. Your Majesty is truly unparalleled in wisdom. It's admirable. "
Qin Huaiyuan looked at Qin Yining with admiration. "Father knows that once I tell you something, you will be able to analyze the situation thoroughly and make the right choice."
Qin Yining's face flushed red from the praise. She quickly waved her hands modestly.
"Father, the most appropriate thing for us to do next is to not offend the aristocratic families and punish Madame Lu?"
"That's right." Qin Huaiyuan said, "We can't let a woman suppress us and make others look down on us. However, we can't offend the Lu family either. We have to control this well. Moreover, according to my analysis, this matter with the Lu family will blow up in a few days. However, you don't have to be afraid. Father naturally has a way to deal with them. "
Qin Yining's expression became serious when she heard this.
"Father, the Imperial Court is so chaotic and we haven't gained a firm foothold yet. What happens next will definitely be even more chaotic. Can we deal with it?"
Qin Huaiyuan couldn't help but laugh when he saw Qin Yining acting like a little girl. "Silly girl, when the water is too clear, there will be no fish. It's better when it's chaotic."
Qin Huaiyuan stood up, brushing away the creases on his sleeves and hem.
"I'll give you a few silver-masked spies who are loyal and steady to protect you. The people trained by the Cao family not only have their own strengths, but they also keep their mouths shut. As long as the money is given, they can be as loyal as they were to the previous emperor. "
At this point, Qin Huaiyuan laughed, "As for the money to hire them, I don't care. Now, Sister Yi is a landowner. Her salary is much better than mine. "
Qin Yining couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this. "Father is already such a powerful person. Why would he care about such a small amount of money?"
Qin Huaiyuan waved his hand and said seriously, "What are you talking about? You were the one who bought the house. Your father is an honest and honest official, and my salary is limited. Alas! These days, he had to give silver to Silver Mask Spies, and he had almost emptied his savings. Now that I've given it to you, it's perfect. "
Qin Yining said with a laugh, "Father, you're too cunning!"
Qin Huaiyuan looked at Qin Yining and also laughed. However, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a tall and big figure on the ground in front of the cleaning room. Qin Huaiyuan was stunned at first, but then he understood and smiled.
He casually took the silk lamp and placed it on the square table near the cleaning room. As the bright light approached, the figure on the ground was immediately diluted.
Qin Yining's back was facing the cleaning room, so he didn't see the figure there. Yi Xin thought that Pang Xiao had already jumped out of the window and left, so she asked Qin Huaiyuan curiously.
"Father, why did you move the silk lamp?"
Qin Huaiyuan smiled and stood next to the square table where the silk lamp was placed, his back facing the cleaning room.
He was only two steps away from where Pang Xiao was hiding behind the door frame.
"Silly girl, look. When the light is placed here, doesn't the light and shadow in the room change?"
Qin Yining looked around and nodded blankly, "There is a change."
"That's why light and shadow are born together. When you see darkness, you don't have to panic. The light source must be not far away. Moreover, the Imperial Court is constantly changing. Isn't it like this lamp? If you casually move your hand and are blocked by a few tables and chairs, the shadows in the darkness will also change. "
As Qin Huaiyuan spoke, he smiled at Qin Yining and walked out, "It's getting late. You should rest. Father is going back."
Qin Yining and Qin Huaiyuan had analyzed things very clearly today. She only didn't understand the last sentence.
What light? What shadow?
When the door creaked open, she heard Qin Huaiyuan instructing the servant girls to be on night duty and not to be negligent.
Qin Yining shook her head in confusion and turned around.
She glanced at the position of the silk lamp and curiously picked it up and put it back in its original position. Then she stood at Qin Huaiyuan's position and looked around the room.
Unexpectedly, when she turned around, she saw the tall figure reflected on the floor in front of the cleaning room from the corner of her eye.
Qin Yining's face turned red with a bang.
She quickly rushed into the cleaning room and lifted the curtain hanging at the door. She saw Pang Xiao leaning against the wall at the door, deep in thought. She couldn't help but hit him and said in a low voice, "What are you thinking about? Didn't you leave? My father found you! "
Pang Xiao looked a little confused.
"What?"
Qin Yining pointed to an open back window not far away. The moonlight tonight was very bright and spilled generously into the cleaning room through the open window. It also cast a long shadow on the floor where Pang Xiao was standing at the door.
Pang Xiao immediately slapped his forehead. "Aiya, a mistake, a mistake! I had just pushed open the window and wanted to leave, but then I remembered that Father-in-law is extremely intelligent. He must have something important to say to you, so I stayed to listen. Father-in-law's words really made me feel enlightened. But even this shadow could be seen by Father-in-law. He is really too powerful! "
Qin Yining looked askance at Pang Xiao and gave him a hard pinch.
"Pretend, you're still pretending! You don't know what kind of person I am? If you were so stupid, you wouldn't even know that the moonlight is so bright and leaves a shadow on the floor. You would have been eaten by others all these years! You clearly did it on purpose!
"It's because County Wang Fei came to my house, right? Pang Zhixi, can you not be so petty! I don't have anything to do with County Wang Fei! Not to mention that he is now County Wang Fei, even if he was the Emperor in the past, I wouldn't care if he wanted to make me Empress!
"You are still so petty. You use this method to tell my father that our relationship is very close. You, how do you want my father to guess? What do you want me to do? "
Qin Yining was so angry that she almost cried. She felt very ashamed when she thought that her father might have seen the figure on the ground when she was talking with her father just now and guessed that she was having a private meeting with Pang Zhixi in the middle of the night.
