"If the Empress Dowager wanted to arrest someone, why didn't she issue a decree? As a relative of the Empress Dowager, Marquis Qingyang shouldn't forget the lessons of history and do things that shouldn't be done! "
Qin Yining was grateful for Ji Zeyu's arrangements. His men had arrived in such a timely manner because of Ji Zeyu's careful arrangements.
Now that she had a helper, she was even more confident.
Marquis Qingyang's face was ashen from anger. He brandished his fists and rushed forward, wanting to punch and kick Qin Yining.
Qin Yining inwardly mocked him for being an idiot. He just looked at Marquis Qingyang coldly and mockingly.
The people around him had already rushed forward. Jinghu Wei's men protected Qin Yining behind them. Ji Zeyu's men were even more swift and decisive. They rushed forward and restrained Marquis Qingyang's arms behind his back.
Marquis Qingyang's cheeks were pressed against the ground. His face was red as he struggled. "Let go! You bunch of daring fanatics! I'll have the Empress Dowager chop off your dog heads! Let go! "
Ji Zeyu's trusted men didn't seem to be afraid at all. Instead, they pressed the marquis to the ground even harder, not giving Marquis Qingyang the slightest chance to attack.
The Jinghu Guards behind Marquis Qingyang looked at each other in dismay. They didn't know if they should come forward to rescue him. They could see that the people in front of them were all from the border army. It wouldn't be difficult for each of them to fight against ten people. The Jinghu Guards were like tigers in a cage. They would suffer when faced with a wild wolf that roared with all its might.
Qin Yining saw that Ji Zeyu's men acted in the same way as Jinghu Wei and had an idea. He smiled at the leader and said, "This general, let him go. Marquis Qingyang is a proud and precious man. I'm afraid he won't be able to endure."
Using the words "proud and precious man" to describe the current commander of the Tiger Army was already a great irony.
Jinghu Wei and the others beside him burst into laughter.
The leader smiled and waved his hand, instructing his men to release Marquis Qingyang. He then cupped his hands in greeting to Qin Yining. "This humble one is Lin Hongyu." After introducing himself, he turned around and said to Marquis Qingyang who was struggling to get up: "My Marquis Dingbei has ordered us to protect the safety of Prince Zhongshun's residence. Regardless of whether Marquis Qingyang is acting out of selfishness or for other reasons, please return."
"Sure!
I think you're trying to rebel! "
The Marquis of Qingyang wiped the dust from his face and pointed at Qin Yining, but he did not dare to continue forward.
Ji Zeyu himself was a lunatic, and his subordinates were also crazy enough to not even care about the Empress Dowager. He was worried that this group of boors would directly kill him. When that time came, he would already be dead. Even if he had the Empress Dowager's support, it would be useless!
Lin Hongyu was a veteran of the battlefield and had seen many different kinds of people. Seeing the expression on the Marquis of Qingyang's face, he knew that this person had definitely admitted defeat.
While mocking him in his heart, he also quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
If the Marquis of Qingyang was a forceful person, they would probably have to fight to the death. Now, it was even better to scare them off like this and save them a lot of trouble.
Everyone turned a deaf ear to the Marquis of Qingyang's clamor.
Seeing this, Qin Yining also felt that there was no point in arguing with the Marquis of Qingyang, so he ordered: "Return to the residence and close the door."
The fifty or so imperial bodyguards and soldiers that Lin Hongyu had brought with him complied and followed the Jinghu Wei's people into the residence.
Being ignored like this, the Marquis of Qingyang was so angry that he stomped his feet. However, he did not have the courage to challenge Ji Zeyu's people. Seeing the doors of the residence being closed, the Marquis of Qingyang coldly snorted, "Return to the palace. I want to see the Empress Dowager!"
The eunuchs and Jinghu Guards who had come with him looked at the Marquis of Qingyang like they were looking at a coward who had fled in the face of battle.
Outside the door, the bodyguards were certain that the Jinghu Guards had left before letting out a sigh of relief.
Qin Yining led his men to forcefully drive away the intruders. However, the Marquis of Qingyang must have gone to complain to the Empress Dowager. She was worried that the Empress Dowager would harm her father and became somewhat worried.
At this time, Qin Huaiyuan had already thanked Lin Hongyu and the others. He sighed and said: "A friend in need is a friend indeed. We will always remember Marquis Dingbei's kindness."
Lin Hongyu hurriedly smiled and bowed, saying: "Old Sir Qin, there is no need for this. To tell you the truth, the day after the incident on the mountain, Marquis Dingbei had arranged for us to be near the residence. The marquis was worried that someone would take advantage of the situation and harm the residence. As a result, we ran into the Marquis of Qingyang's people today. "
Qin Yining and Qin Huaiyuan looked at each other in surprise.
They did not expect that Ji Zeyu, who looked so cold, would actually be so meticulous in his actions. Although the residence had already been set up. But.
The people that Ji Zeyu had arranged were truly of great help. Not only did they provide protection, but they also shouldered all the blame.
Qin Yining made up his mind, thinking that he must properly thank Ji Zeyu when he returned.
As for the Marquis of Qingyang, he wanted to return to the palace and complain to the Empress Dowager, but he was stopped halfway by the Minister of War, Wang Zhi.
Wang Zhi originally looked down on people like the Marquis of Qingyang, so she told the Marquis of Qingyang about the war, wanting to see the Marquis of Qingyang's cowardice.
The Marquis of Qingyang did not disappoint Wang Zhi. He was so scared that his face turned pale and bloodless, and his lips trembled.
The Tatan people were so fierce and cruel that the Marquis of Qingyang was afraid that he would be caught and eaten!
He also promised the Empress Dowager that he would increase the number of troops at Heaven's Gate.
But looking at it now, if he did not go up against the Tatan Utejin Han, what else could it be other than throwing his life away?
The Marquis of Qingyang was very satisfied with his current life of luxury and did not want to throw his life away for such a thing.
Therefore, after parting ways with Wang Zhi, the Marquis of Qingyang cleverly thought of a way to solve the problem.

In Ci 'an Palace, the Empress Dowager was waiting for news, but what she received was an eunuch who came to reply.
"Replying to the Empress Dowager, the Marquis of Qingyang went to Prince Zhongshun's residence today to capture Qin Meng. In the end, he was angered by the Prince Zhongshun's consort. He originally wanted to forcefully capture her, but the guards arranged by Prince Consort Ji were very tough and actually injured the Marquis of Qingyang. At this time, the Marquis is so angry that he has a headache. He can't even stand properly and has already returned to the marquis's residence to rest. The Marquis said to ask the Empress Dowager to calm down. When he is better, he will immediately go to the Prince Zhongshun's residence. "
The eunuch learned the truth from the Marquis of Qingyang's words and then lowered his head in silence.
The Empress Dowager was so angry that the veins on her forehead were popping out.
Ji Zeyu's people were actually arranged to go to the Prince Zhongshun's residence! Ji Zeyu was clearly treating her as an outsider and distancing herself from them!
She was the Empress Dowager, and no one listened to the Empress Dowager's verbal orders. Could it be that the world was going to rebel!
"Good! Aijia will wait. Tomorrow, when the Marquis of Qingyang enters the palace, I will immediately have him capture Qin Meng! "
The Empress Dowager was sulking when she fell asleep that night.
As a result, something even angrier came the next day.
"The Marquis of Qingyang's heart was attacked by anger and is seriously ill in bed. It must be inconvenient for him to go out. The Marquis of Qingyang also said that the Tatan war in the north is critical and the Tiger Army urgently needs to reinforce the north.
He hopes that the Empress Dowager can find a suitable candidate as soon as possible. "
The steward of the Prince Zhongshun left after replying.
The Empress Dowager's face was ashen with anger. If it wasn't for the fact that she wanted to maintain her composure next to the regent Prince Li, she probably would have already started cursing.
