Actually, Qin Yining's suggestion was the most appropriate way to solve the current situation. If the person here was not Pang Xiao, but any other ordinary man, they would probably agree. At most, they would just leave more people to protect them.
However, Pang Xiao and Qin Yining had been through so many ups and downs together. He had even lost her before. Now, in his heart, Qin Yining was more important than any appointment or imperial edict.
"You don't have to think too much. I don't agree," Pang Xiao said seriously. "I know how to deal with Your Majesty. No matter what, I will not let you and the child out of my sight."
Seeing Pang Xiao frowning and pursing his lips unhappily, Qin Yining smiled and said, "Alright, since you have already made arrangements, I will listen to you."
Qin Yining did not continue to persuade him to leave first. This made Pang Xiao's frown relax.
Pang Xiao said, "Then it's settled. Let's rest here now. I will also send people to scout ahead and make the initial preparations. This way, we won't be in the dark when we arrive at the old capital. Also, I will need some time to gather information. During this time, you just need to take care of your body. Once you have recovered, you can continue to help me come up with plans. "
Qin Yining laughed and said, "You have Mr. Xu, Mr. Xie, and so many other aides. It will not be my turn to come up with plans for you."
"That's different." Pang Xiao said, "You are wholeheartedly doing this for me. Also, you are extremely intelligent. You have inherited all my father-in-law's teachings. Mr. Xie, Mr. Xu, and the others all admire you. If you recover quickly, you will be able to help me a lot. "
Qin Yining smiled and nodded. He knew that Pang Xiao was mostly coaxing her, but he still felt happy.
Since Pang Xiao had made a decision, she knew what she was doing. Qin Yining didn't want to be separated from Pang Xiao either. If she was with him, she would feel more secure. Therefore, she didn't mention letting Pang Xiao take up the post first. Instead, she focused on recuperating and taking care of her child.
A month passed in the blink of an eye. Just as Qin Yining's body had almost recovered and Pang Xiao's group was preparing to continue their journey, in the capital of Da Zhou, Li Qitian and Qin Huaiyuan received the news that Pang Xiao had two sons at the same time.
On Li Qitian's side, although the Empress was also pregnant, even if the Empress could give birth to a male heir, the good news would still come later than Pang Xiao's side. They were twins, and many people were envious of them.
Li Qitian held a breath in his heart and didn't have a good expression these days. Even the Empress Dowager and Li Helan had to think carefully before speaking when they saw him, so as to avoid encountering Li Qitian's taboo.
The Empress also noticed Li Qitian's abnormality, but she wasn't angry about it. She just focused on recuperating. After experiencing the palace coup, the Empress's conduct was much more stable.
In contrast to the tense atmosphere in the palace, Qin Huaiyuan brought back the news that Qin Yining had given birth to a pair of twins and that mother and children were safe. The Sun Clan and the Ma Clan were overjoyed.
Yao Chenggu and the Yao Clan were also happy. Being able to hold great-grandchildren (grandchildren), they felt less scheming in their hearts and only felt very satisfied.
The Ma Clan and the Sun Clan were anxious to fulfill their wishes. Seeing that they couldn't leave, they ordered their most capable servants to go and add more incense money. There was still Zhang Luoqing's matter in the mansion.
Except for the Old Madam, the rest of the Family Qin were also overjoyed. Although the end of the year was approaching and the mansion was preparing for new matters, in order to celebrate the birth of Brother Zhao and Brother Han, the atmosphere in the mansion was even more lively than during the New Year.
Qin Huaiyuan went to the study and personally ground the ink to write a letter. He wrote down all the instructions on a thin piece of paper and had someone send it to Pang Xiao.
When Qin Huaiyuan's letter reached Qin Yining and Pang Xiao, they had already arrived at the southern border of the Dayan dynasty, where it intersected with the current Southern Yan.
Pang Xiao was busy announcing the imperial edict to Yuchi Xujie. Qin Yining took the two babies to wait at the relay station. While waiting for the news, he also arranged for Master Zhong to continue with his work.
Things went as expected. Yuchi Xujie happily received the "letter of credence". From then on, he was an independent country recognized by Da Zhou. He no longer had to act according to the Yuchi Yan's wishes and didn't have to bear the crime of treason for the rest of his life.
Yuchi Xujie became the legitimate emperor of Southern Yan.
In this way, the Yuchi Yan became superfluous.
The Yuchi Yan was originally a Junwang conferred by Li Qitian. Now, in front of Yuchi Xujie, he went from a high and mighty Emperor to a Junwang of Da Zhou. One could imagine how he felt.
Qin Yining didn't see this with his own eyes. He heard the tension of the matter from Pang Xiao after he came back.
After interacting with Yuchi Xujie, everything became smoother, just as Qin Huaiyuan expected.
The Yuchi Yan was sent back to the old capital of the Yan dynasty by Yuchi Xujie's people.
Pang Xiao and Qin Yining also returned to Da Zhou's land and arrived at the old capital.
The Yuchi Yan received land and was conferred the title of Zhennan Wang by Your Majesty. The old capital was now part of the Yuchi Yan's territory.
Therefore, when Pang Xiao and Qin Yining's carriage arrived at the old capital, they received a warm welcome from the Yuchi Yan.
It was nearing New Year's Eve. The unique humid and cold air of the south seemed to be floating with the smell of the new year. The Yuchi Yan led the old officials of the Yan dynasty who came back with him a while ago to open the old capital gates and welcome the arrival of Grand Marshal Pang Xiao and his family.
Qin Yining held the sleeping Zhao Ge 'er in his arms and gently lifted the curtains.
The city gates were getting closer and closer, and the Yuchi Yan's vast army could be seen more clearly. Pang Xiao, who was riding a shiny black horse, walked at the front of the army with a straight posture. He was like a flag that wouldn't fall. In fact, he was awe-inspiring and showed off his ability. Even though he couldn't see their faces clearly, Qin Yining could feel the solemnity of the Yuchi Yan's army.
To the people of the Yan dynasty, Pang Xiao was the person who conquered the Yan dynasty. He was someone they hated and feared. They couldn't help but be tense.
However, to Qin Yining, this was her hometown. The land that she bought and the shops that Pang Xiao bought were all here. It could be said that her and Pang Xiao's family assets were all here. She could feel very relaxed.
Qin Yining lowered the curtains and looked at Bing Tang, who was holding Zhao Ge 'er. He said in a low voice, "After we enter the city and settle down, I will accompany you to send some money to your family."
Bing Tang's entire family was killed by the Demon Empress and was buried hastily. This time, Qin Yining wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make arrangements for the Tang family. This would also allow Bing Tang to let go of the past and not live with the heavy burden of the past.
