Qin Yining couldn't think of any use for the Qiu Family to imprison her. Even if they wanted to threaten Pang Xiao, they should at least spread the news. Otherwise, Pang Xiao wouldn't know at all.
Yes, although she couldn't spread the news, the Qiu Family could spread the news freely. Qiu Fei Shan lured her here, and Qiu Yuan Qing and Qiu Yuan Ming made a series of things to make her fall into the hands of the Qiu Family. Qiu Fei Shan in the old capital could then negotiate with Pang Xiao.
It seemed that she had to solve the problem in front of her before the Qiu Family used her.
Qin Yining glanced at Qiu Yuan Qing coldly and got on the carriage with her people.
Qiu Yuan Qing was a little surprised that Qin Yining could still be so calm after being caught.
He had seen many beautiful women, but women who were both beautiful and capable of doing great things were rare. His eldest niece, who refused to go home when she went out, was one, and the one in front of him was another.
However, what could she do even if she was calm?
Pang Zhixi was still in the old capital fighting with Zhennan Wang. How could he have the energy to reach out to Jianchuan? Even if he could come, the mountain was high and the road was long, so it would take time. By then, he would have done what he wanted to do.
Qin Yining sat in the carriage, Bing Tang and Ji Yun sat on her left and right. Mu Jinghu sat in front of the carriage with a calm face and didn't say a word. Da Han and Jinghu Wei walked together to protect the carriage, silently observing the terrain and the surrounding movements.
Qiu Yuan Qing and Qiu Yuan Ming got on the Qiu Family's carriage.
The coachman raised his whip and wanted to drive the carriage past them. Qiu Yuan Qing ordered lightly: "The princess's carriage should be in front. The Qiu Family is not a secret, and we don't need to lead the way. Just follow. "
"Yes, Second Master."
Although Qiu Yuan Qing and Qiu Yuan Ming were of the same generation, the elders of the sixth branch of the collateral branch passed away early. Qiu Yuan Ming was older and had now become the Old Master of the sixth branch. Qiu Yuan Qing was only a Master of the main branch. The servants of the Qiu Family were naturally willing to follow the direct line and call him Master.
Qiu Yuan Ming's face was calm, but he was not as manic as he was in the inn just now.
"When we get back to the residence, let me deal with that bitch." Qiu Yuan Ming said.
Qiu Yuan Qing shook his head: "Cousin, you should rest well and don't get involved in the outside affairs. You don't understand the situation outside, so don't ruin the family's plans. "
"Bullsh * t!" Qiu Yuan Ming scolded in a low voice, "Don't give me that. Don't think that I don't know why you want to lock that woman up in our residence."
Qiu Yuanqing's brows were tightly knitted together. He was already rather impatient and did not want to pay attention to this person.

"Cousin, it seems like you want to go to the ancestral hall to worship your ancestors."
"You! You dare! "
"You can try and see if I dare or not."
Qiu Yuan Qing had been in a high position for a long time. He was not like Qiu Yuan Ming who only cared about drinking and women.
At this moment, Qiu Yuan Ming finally felt some fear, and no longer opened his mouth to speak.
Rubbing his throbbing temples, Qiu Yuanqing shook his head and thought to himself, "They really are hopeless. The sixth branch has actually developed into such a state. Everyone from top to bottom is a pervert. Wouldn't it be a disgrace to the Qiu family if they went out?"
Qin Yining did not care about what was happening in the carriage behind. On the way to the Qiu Family, she had already discussed everything with Mu Jinghu.
She was curious about what the Qiu Family wanted to do.
At this moment, the carriage slowly stopped outside the Qiu Family.
Qiu Yuan Qing and Qiu Yuan Ming got off the carriage.
Qiu Yuan Ming's face was dark, but he was still a little afraid of Qiu Yuan Qing. He did not dare to provoke him and led his subordinates into the residence.
Qiu Yuan Qing went to Qin Yining's carriage and bowed: "Princess, please move to the guest courtyard."
Yuanyun and Bing Tang got off the carriage first. Qin Yining held their hands and stepped on the black wooden steps to get off the carriage in a dignified manner. She raised her eyes to take a look. She saw a golden plaque with a black background hanging high above the gate. The two words "Qiu Estate" were written on it.
Looking left and right, the continuous walls of the courtyard were so big that they could not see the end. The Qiu Family's land was so big that it was shocking.
Qin Yining remembered what Mu Jinghu said: The Qiu Family was not like a courtyard. It was more like a village. This village was very rich, and the people inside all had the surname Qiu. They were all related to each other.
However, even if they were relatives, there were some who lived very well, and some who were very poor.
Qiu Yuan Qing had already left a few words.
Not long after, the black gate was pushed open. The doormen, servants, and servants in the front yard stood in two rows. Like Moses parting the sea, they came out to welcome her.
"Welcome, Prince Zhongshun!"
Qin Yining was a little surprised that the Qiu Family would open the main gate to welcome her with such extravagance.
If Qiu Yuan Qing's purpose was to put her under house arrest and threaten Pang Xiao to achieve his goal, this kind of house arrest was a little too extravagant.
Qin Yining was a little confused, but she did not show it on her face. Since the other party was welcoming her, she accepted it calmly. She led the guards and followed the Qiu Family's servants through the main gate. After walking through the corridors and halls, they finally arrived at the guest courtyard.
"Princess, you and the guards can stay here for the time being. I will ask my wife to arrange for the most capable servants to serve you. If you have any orders, don't be polite with us. Just tell us and we will do our best to do it for you. "
"Mm." Qin Yining nodded slightly.
Qiu Yuan Qing did not care about Qin Yining's coldness. After bidding farewell, he immediately went to open the ancestral hall. He planned to lock Qiu Yuan Ming up for a few days to reduce his spirit.
Qin Yining stayed in the Qiu Family for the time being. She was confident about all the arrangements, but Jing Zhe and Xiao Xue outside were burning with anxiety.
They did not dare to rashly break into the Qiu Family for fear of causing any disturbance and affecting Qin Yining's plan. However, the two of them could not think of any other way to save Qin Yining.
If it were any other place, it would be fine. However, Jianchuan City was heavily guarded. The terrain was so dangerous that even Xiao Xue, who was proud of her lightness skills, could not safely climb over the cliff. They could not think of any way to send a message to Young Man and the others outside the city.
Jing Zhe and Xiao Xue were the most capable subordinates trained by Cao Yuqing. They were also the two most tenacious of the silver-masked spies. The way out of Jianchuan City was blocked by checkpoints and there were cliffs on both sides. However, they did not believe that they could not find a way out in such a large city!
Like Jing Zhe and Xiao Xue, Young Man and the two Jinghu Wei who were guarding outside the city did not dare to go too far away. Since Qin Yining entered Jianchuan City, they had been secretly observing the direction of the city gate, for fear of missing the slightest message sent by Qin Yining.
However, one day passed, two days passed …
As time went by, their mood became more and more anxious. They had completely lost contact with Qin Yining, which made Young Man extremely worried. Finally, he could not help but anxiously arrange a Jinghu Wei to quickly go to the old capital to send a message to Pang Xiao. Young Man and the other remaining brother guarded the city gate.
Qin Yining also knew that the people following him would be anxious. However, she wanted to investigate the situation of the Qiu Family. This was a good opportunity.
After half a month, Qiu Yuanqing had not appeared since he sent her here. Even the women were strictly forbidden by Qiu Yuanqing to come to the guest house to chat with her.
Qin Yining had very few channels to obtain information. It took him half a month to roughly understand the situation of the Qiu Family.
The Qiu Family had a total of five branches. The rest of the branches were innumerable. People like Qiu Yuanming had no right to speak in the Qiu Family.
Qiu Guang, the eldest son of the Qiu Family's direct line of descent, was Qiu Feishan's grandfather and the current patriarch. Qiu Guang had two sons and four daughters. The eldest son, Qiu Feishan's father, had passed away more than ten years ago. Qiu Feishan's four aunts were not good at business. They had already gotten married and did not care about the family affairs.
Therefore, the position of the patriarch, which was supposed to be passed to the eldest son of the direct line of descent, was likely to fall on Qiu Yuanqing.
However, it was not so easy for Qiu Yuanqing to get what he wanted immediately.
Because Qiu Feishan showed amazing intelligence and talent when she was seven or eight years old.
Perhaps Qiu Guang pitied his eldest granddaughter because she did not have parents to take care of her since she was young. He had been taking Qiu Feishan with him and was willing to take this little granddaughter to many big business occasions.
Under the influence of others, Qiu Feishan learned a lot, and was always able to say amazing things at the negotiation table. Sometimes, she could even replace Qiu Guang to say things that were inconvenient for him. Such a smart granddaughter made Qiu Guang very fond of her, and indulged her more and more.
Qiu Feishan started wearing men's clothes when she was eleven years old. Her amazing talent in business made the whole Qiu Family speechless. When she was sixteen years old, she went out to gain experience. Half a year after she went out, the patriarch Qiu Guang said that he was in seclusion and did not appear again.
Qin Yining carefully recalled the news of the Four Links Shop. It seemed that the Four Links Shop, which had been in business for a hundred years, only grew stronger after Qiu Feishan went out to gain experience. It even began to contact political and military officials.
According to the Qiu Family, Qiu Feishan had not returned home for two and a half years.
Qin Yining linked all the things together, and a huge drama of the internal struggle of the Qiu Family had already formed in his mind.
But he did not know what role Qiu Feishan wanted her to play by bringing her here.
Half a month later, she also heard the servant say that the government had caught the murderer of the fire at the inn and the Qiu Family.
There was no doubt that this was the Qiu Family's suppression, and found someone to take the blame.
Qin Yining finally became impatient. Although the days in the Qiu Family were leisurely, he did not get any useful information. It was meaningless to continue like this.
