Yao Chenggu and Madam Ma's expressions both became solemn.
If Qin Yining hadn't brought it up, they wouldn't have thought of this at all. They had long been used to Pang Xiao going out to war over the years while they stayed in the capital. It wasn't the first time they were even invited to the palace for a "short stay".
Madam Ma said with some hesitation, "Yi lass, is the matter really that serious? Dai Fu is still stationed in the south. Don't tell me they won't be afraid? "
It was self-evident who "they" Madam Ma was referring to.
Yao Chenggu stopped smoking at this moment. He frowned and said hesitantly, "It's not the same thing. There's still a whole family here. Can we just throw them away like that?"
He tapped the cigarette holder on the bottom of his shoe a few times. The unburnt tobacco fell to the ground along with the ashes. The sparks flickered and were completely extinguished by Yao Chenggu's shoe.
As if taking advantage of this action to think for a while, Yao Chenggu said earnestly, "You young people can't keep your composure after all. The situation you said is true, but the matter shouldn't have really escalated to such an extent.
"Dai Fu is not a random subject. He is Your Majesty's sworn brother. The glory and glory of the whole family are tied to his wrist. Not to mention that, how can the stability of Da Zhou be unrelated to Dai Fu? Don't worry, that person won't really do anything to us. He's just a little afraid. Don't tell me he doesn't care about his reputation anymore? "
Qin Yining lowered his eyes and listened patiently to Yao Chenggu's analysis. It seemed that he was too well protected and thought too highly of himself. He was a little too optimistic.
"Old Master's words have a certain degree of truth." Qin Yining smiled and briefly explained the recent situation before continuing, "The situation now is different from before. Wang Ye's power in the south is growing. The Southern Yan has a new Emperor, and the new Emperor has a relatively close relationship with Wang Ye. This is enough to make people afraid. Moreover, something happened to my father this time. I'm so troubled in the palace. If I stay here, I'm afraid I'll become a hindrance to Wang Ye in the future. "
Madam Ma and Yao Chenggu were stunned for a moment. They didn't expect that so many things had happened in a place they didn't know.
If Qin Yining hadn't mentioned it, Madam Ma wouldn't have dared to imagine that Qin Yining had such a thing happened to him in the palace. She held Qin Yining's hand and didn't know what to say.
"If that's the case, the situation's really critical. Yao Chenggu anxiously twiddled his fingers. "If it's like what you said, won't we be stopped when we leave the capital? 's's't's's. "
"That's why we need to leave secretly in batches." Qin Yining said seriously, "If Old Master agrees, I'll immediately arrange for Jinghu Wei to secretly escort us. Fortunately, our family is small and we're a small target. It won't be difficult to sneak out of the city."
Yao Chenggu nodded hesitantly and couldn't help but look in the direction of the inner room.
Qin Yining also followed Yao Chenggu's gaze and happened to see a figure projected on the ground.
If Qin Yining could see it, Madam Ma and Yao Chenggu naturally could see it as well.
Madam Ma's embarrassed face immediately turned red.
Qin Yining was considerate and didn't ask any more questions. He stood up and said, "Grandmother, this matter shouldn't be delayed. If it's delayed for too long, I'm afraid there will be changes. If you and Old Master agree, I'll make the arrangements. Once we've all moved to the south and are in Wang Ye's territory, our safety can be guaranteed. We can also ensure that we won't be a burden to Wang Ye. "
Madam Ma nodded and looked at Yao Chenggu, "I think Yi 'er's's' 'makes sense."
Yao Chenggu nodded and said, "That's good too. Just make the arrangements. Anyway, there's only a few of us in our family. It won't be a problem for us to sneak out. Once we've settled down in the south, we'll just have to earn a family business. The most important thing is to survive. "
Yao Chenggu was surprisingly sensible. This saved Qin Yining a lot of talking.
Since it was decided, Qin Yining began to secretly plan.
The Qingtian Alliance had also contacted the "idlers" who were escorting the spirit. Qin Yining was also afraid that he would wrongly accuse an innocent person, so he secretly asked Jing Zhe to follow these people. He found that they had indeed secretly colluded with many bandits. After confirming that they were the ones who had done a lot of bad things before, he felt at ease and used them.
At the same time, the Family Qin and the Wang Mansion began to send people out one after another.
The first batch of people to leave the Family Qin was Second Madam, Old Madam, and a few others.
Qin Yining didn't dare to send them off for fear of being seen through. He endured it and arranged for Young Man to escort them.
The next day at the Wang Mansion, Yao Chenggu was also in disguise. He was first escorted out of the city by two Jinghu Wei to the gathering point outside the city.
Two days later, it was the Yao Clan and the Ma Clan's' turn.
Just like that, the two families left one after another. Soon, most of the masters of the Qin Mansion had left.
The day to send the spirit was getting closer and closer.
Second Master looked worriedly at Qin Yining and said, "Sister Yi, I'm still worried. Why don't I stay behind?"
"Second Uncle, didn't we discuss this? I'm the one who's being watched closely. To put it bluntly, after you all leave, no one will notice if you don't show up for two or three days. But if I don't show up for half a day, I'll immediately be discovered. I'm the one who can't leave. "
Qin Yining then looked at Bing Tang, Ji Yun, Xian Yun, Qiu Lu, and Lian Xiaozhou. He said in a low voice, "Don't be stubborn. At this time, you have to listen to my arrangements. You all must leave with Second Master."
Bing Tang shook his head. "Wangfei, I'll follow you. I know how to make medicine. I can protect myself."
"That's right, Wangfei. I have skills with me. Please let me stay behind to accompany you." Ji Yun's anxious face turned red.
The rest of the people were in the same situation. They all wanted to stay behind to accompany Qin Yining.
However, Qin Yining said sternly this time, "If you all stay behind, Young Master Mu will have to divert his attention to escort you away. Won't that be dangerous? If Young Master Mu takes me with him, we can escape wherever we want. We definitely won't be caught. "
Mu Jinghu also nodded. "I can't bring so many people with me."
The few of them revealed a troubled expression.
If they didn't leave, they might become a burden in the end. However, they really didn't feel at ease leaving Qin Yining alone.
"Wangfei, the masters of the mansion have all left. If we leave as well, what will happen to them? If we leave, won't everyone in the mansion be the group of people you hired? They're all bandits. " Qiu Lu lowered her voice. "Those people are making a fuss. They're crying so much that the roof of the mourning hall is about to be overturned. However, I feel that something is wrong. Wangfei, it's so dangerous for you to stay behind and face them alone!"
Qin Yining smiled helplessly. "Young Master Mu is here. His martial arts are superb. It won't be a problem for him to escape with me. Moreover, the day after tomorrow is our wedding day. I don't have to bear with them for too long. If you all stay behind, I'll have to divert my attention to make arrangements for you. That's the real problem. "
He then turned to look at Cao Yuqing, who was dressed in white.
She was also a stubborn person. Even when he asked her to help escort the Dowager Duchess, Cao Yuqing refused this time. She wanted to stay behind no matter what.
Cao Yuqing calmly looked back at Qin Yining. She pursed her lips and didn't say a word.
The few of them fell silent. Second Old Master and the others had to admit that Qin Yining's analysis was correct. Although they were worried, they couldn't guarantee that they wouldn't be a burden to Qin Yining. If they stayed behind and encountered any danger, who would Mu Jinghu protect? It was better not to add to Qin Yining's troubles as soon as possible.
As a result, the few of them could only obey Qin Yining's arrangements and leave with Second Old Master.
At this time, other than Cao Yuqing, the people from the Prince's Residence and the Family Qin had quietly left in batches. Qin Yining arranged for all the Jinghu Wei, silver-masked secret agents, and the guards in the Prince's Residence to stay with the masters who were about to leave. There were many people in the in-laws' family. Qin Yining didn't suggest that these people gather outside the city. Instead, they were to be separated into many groups and be escorted to the south.
Qin Yining looked helplessly at Cao Yuqing. "Aunt Cao, are you still not leaving?"
Cao Yuqing shook her head. "Don't say anything about delaying Young Master Mu's old friends. I have the ability to protect myself. I don't need anyone to save me. Since I'm going to send the spirit, I naturally have to follow. "
Qin Yining had already tried to persuade Cao Yuqing several times. He had said all the excuses and explanations he could think of, but Cao Yuqing remained unmoved.
Just as Qin Yining was in a terrible fix, he saw Master Zhong rushing over with a forehead full of sweat.
"Princess Consort." Master Zhong looked excited, but he was afraid that others would see him. He used a lot of effort to maintain a calm expression, but his eyes were too bright and excited, betraying him.
"Princess Consort, there's news, there's news." Master Zhong lowered his voice and took out a piece of paper from his sleeve to hand to Qin Yining.
Qin Yining's heart skipped a beat. He snatched the paper and opened it.
A few familiar bold words on the paper came into view. "An, the body is in the sunset moon. Don't miss it."
It was a simple sentence, but Qin Yining stared at it for a long time.
Mu Jinghu and Cao Yuqing both looked at Qin Yining with wide eyes. As Qin Yining's expression was too rich, they also saw the words on the paper from both sides. They were momentarily stunned by their own guesses and did not react.
Qin Yining snapped out of his daze and stuffed the paper into Cao Yuqing's hands.
Cao Yuqing stared blankly at Qin Yining. Tears hung on her thick eyelashes and were about to fall. "It's, it's him, he …"
Qin Yining nodded repeatedly. "Don't spread the news. It's true. "
Cao Yuqing covered her mouth and clutched the paper tightly. Her tears fell like pearls from a broken necklace. "He's fine. He's alive …"
When Qin Yining saw this, he couldn't help but cry as well.
So Father wasn't dead.
So Xiyue's people had really arrived!
Then, what Li Qitian knew about the disappearance of the provisions, cloth and grain, was it really his father's doing?
He suddenly felt that Li Qitian's anger was not in vain.
When Qin Yining thought of this, his tears suddenly turned into laughter. He pulled Cao Yuqing and said, "Aunt Cao, this is great."
Cao Yuqing nodded excitedly. She couldn't say a complete sentence.
Even Mu Jinghu and Master Zhong were moved.
