The next day, after the imperial court meeting, an earth-shattering piece of news spread throughout the imperial court.
Ji Zeyu was appointed as the new commander of the Tiger Army and was temporarily stationed in the capital.
The original commander of the Tiger Army, Pang Xiao, was assigned the task of supervising the Ministry of War after he moved into the cabinet.
The Tiger Army was Li Qitian's weapon to intimidate the south. Pang Xiao's voice and status were extremely high, and many of them worshipped Pang Xiao. Even Pang Xiao's private Jinghu Wei was promoted from the Tiger Army.
Similar to the Tiger Army, Ji Zeyu's Dragon Stallion Army, which was famous in the north, trusted and respected Ji Zeyu no less than the Tiger Army. As for Pang Xiao.
However, Your Majesty's actions caused Pang Xiao to lose the Tiger Army, and caused Ji Zeyu to lose the Dragon Stallion Army.
Even though Ji Zeyu was in charge of the Tiger Army, which was comparable to the Dragon Stallion Army, the relationship between the upper and lower could not be as close as before.
Moreover, Your Majesty still had the reputation of using these two people. On the surface, it did seem like Your Majesty valued them.
When Qin Yining heard this news from a servant, she was combing Lian Xiaozhou's hair.
Hearing this, her hands paused for a moment before she said, "Your Majesty seems to be very satisfied with Prince Consort Ji. Considering that Prince Consort Ji just got married, she is not going to let him go back to the north."
"That's right." Bing Tang said, "Your Majesty wants to keep these two fierce generals by her side to protect herself, so she feels more secure."
Qin Yining heard Bing Tang's explanation and couldn't help but laugh. She naturally knew that Bing Tang's words had a double meaning and was mostly sarcastic. She couldn't help but remind her, "Don't say this outside."
"Miss, I'm not stupid. I'm just saying it. How can I cause trouble for myself outside?"
Qin Yining tied a light blue ribbon to Lian Xiaozhou's black braids and carefully tied a beautiful bow before she laughed, "That's right. Miss Bing Tang is not stupid. That's why she found a reliable tiger to get close to."
Bing Tang's face turned red when she heard this. She stomped her feet and said, "Miss, what are you saying!"
Seeing her so embarrassed, Qin Yining felt more amused. She smiled and said, "Don't you understand what I said? .... of Pang of the Tiger Army... "
"What's his of..... is... . I can't be bothered with him! "
Qin Yining said, "Oh," and said, "The next time I see Wang Ye, I'll ask Wang Ye for help. I won't let Huzi visit you anymore, okay?"
Bing Tang's face turned red as she glared at Qin Yining. She turned around and walked out, "Miss, you're not a good person! I'm not going to talk to you anymore! "
Qin Yining was amused by Bing Tang's reaction. He patted Lian Xiaozhou's shoulder and said, "Go and accompany your Bing Tang sister. She's shy."
Lian Xiaozhou nodded seriously and chased after Bing Tang with a smile on her face.
After Lian Xiaozhou was far away, Qin Yining sighed and said, "It seems like Bing Tang still has some feelings for Huzi. See, we managed to trick her."
Ji Yun smiled and said, "Miss, you really like to worry. In my opinion, even if you didn't play matchmaker, Bing Tang and Huzi's relationship is also good. They quarrel every time they see each other. After the quarrel, it's like they're good friends. "
Qin Yining also laughed when he heard this.
"If there's a chance in the future, I'll find a good family for the two of you. In the future, you can follow me and be my housekeeper."
Ji Yun and Xian Yun's faces turned red. They glared at Qin Yining and said, "Just like what Bing Tang said, you're really bad!"
Qin Yining laughed even more when he saw that the beauties' cheeks were red from being bullied by him.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, there was a sudden rush of footsteps in the courtyard. A little girl rushed in hurriedly and shouted at the top of her voice, "Oh no, oh no! Something happened to Master! "
Qin Yining's laughter stopped abruptly. His heart skipped a beat. He stood up with a pale face and rushed out in a panic.
At the same time, the people living in the inner courtyard all pushed open the door and rushed out.
Old madam staggered out of the main room with a tobacco pipe in her hand. She grabbed Mammy Qin's hand and said nervously, "Quickly say it! What happened to Brother Meng! "
"That's right, you little girl, quickly say it!"
The little girl realized that her words had caused panic in the entire family and became even more afraid. Her legs went soft and she knelt down, saying, "It's, it's news from outside. It said that Master was on his way back from the yamen and was hit by a horse. The sedan bearers panicked and flipped the sedan over!"
"What!"
Everyone cried out in fear.
Old madam walked a few steps quickly and pointed at the little girl with the tobacco pipe, "Quickly say it! Brother Meng is in big trouble! "
If the sedan overturned, the person must have fallen heavily. The little girl guessed so. Everyone in the Family Qin also guessed so. Han Second Young Mistress hugged her belly that was already more than seven months pregnant. Her body swayed and she almost fainted. She was quickly helped down by Second Madam.
Sun Clan members asked anxiously, "Where is Master now? Where are the people following him? "
The little girl said in fear, "The messenger didn't say anything about this. He only said that Master is now in the East Road Five Cities' Warden's Office."
Five Cities' Warden's Office?
If he was here, at least it meant that father wasn't in big danger. At least, he wasn't sent to the medical hall.
Qin Yining finally let out a sigh of relief.
Obviously, everyone in the family also thought of this point. They all wiped their cold sweat and bowed to the sky with their palms together.
Qin Yining said, "I will go and check on father's situation first."
Second Master and Third Master weren't at home at this time. According to the Family Qin's habits, when there was no one in the family who could stand out, the family would all rely on Qin Yining to make decisions.
Sun Clan members nodded without hesitation and said, "Go with your cousin. You will have one more helper and won't be at a disadvantage."
Old madam also nodded repeatedly and said, "Quickly come back and report after seeing the situation."
"Yes, old madam." Qin Yining curtsied and went back to his room to grab a cloak and put it on. He also called for Ji Yun to accompany him and went out to ask someone to prepare a carriage.
Qin Yu and Qin Han didn't hesitate and followed the carriage to the East Road Five Cities' Warden's Office.
When they arrived at the door and explained their purpose, they didn't expect that those people didn't stop them. Instead, they were very friendly when they led the way.
Qin Yining began to guess which faction these people belonged to.
The current imperial court was divided into aristocratic families, imperial power, meritorious officials, old officials, and Dayan officials who surrendered. It was the best time to take advantage of the situation.
Although Qin Yining had guesses in his heart, he didn't dwell on it and rushed to the inner court with his two cousins.
At this time, the commander of the East Road, Zheng Daren, was giving orders to his subordinates at the door. When he raised his head and saw Qin Yining, Qin Han, and Qin Yu, he came forward and politely said, "So it's the Family Qin's two young masters and Miss Qin."
The three didn't recognize Zheng Daren and politely greeted him.
