Ji Yun was stunned by the question. She blinked her long eyelashes and thought for a while. Then, she shook her head and said, "This servant doesn't think so. Think about it. If they knew where the treasure was hidden, wouldn't they have thought of a way to steal it long ago? No matter how valuable the treasure is, it can't fit in too many boxes, right? The reason why they didn't make a move is because there are too many stones to move. Their goal is uncertain. "
Qin Yining nodded in agreement, "You're right. I also think that even if they know, they only know the approximate location. So, I'm thinking that if they really do move it, it'll be fine if they move all of it. But if they move half of it and leave half of it behind, when the construction starts, the moment they move the stones, the gold, silver, and precious stones will scatter all over the ground … "
That scene was simply too frightening. Qin Yining couldn't help but rub his brows as he spoke.
The silver was engraved with the words' manufactured 'and' year '. At a glance, one could tell that it was from the Dayan Dynasty. It was easy to analyze that it was the batch of silver that was hidden by the Dayan Dynasty's incapable ruler.
Once Li Qitian found out about this, things would be difficult to handle. Guan Dahu's motley crew would definitely not be able to defeat the army arranged by Li Qitian. At that time, if Li Qitian obtained the treasure and had the money and the confidence, wouldn't he come to torment Pang Xiao?
Qin Yining shook his head.
This matter definitely could not be allowed to happen.
Qin Yining hugged the quilt and thought for a while. Finally, he made up his mind and asked Ji Yun to call Tang Xiu over.
Ji Yun was already sleepy and yawning. When she heard this, she still didn't say anything. She hurriedly pulled on her wooden clogs, put on her small jacket, and went out.
Qin Yining put on a cloak with large sleeves and casually tied up her long hair. Then, she sat outside and waited.
Not long after, Tang Xiu came. Although she was woken up right after she fell asleep, she was still in high spirits.
"Princess Consort, do you have any orders?"
"Yes. There's an urgent matter that requires you to arrange for someone to do quickly. "
"Please give your orders." Tang Xiu cupped her hands.
Qin Yining gestured for her to come closer and whispered, "Arrange for a trustworthy brother to secretly return to the capital and send a message to Wang Ye. Tell him that everything went smoothly when we came to Huichuan county... However, there's one thing that's not good.... There's a problem. there.................. Wang...........
Tang Xiu blinked, a little dumbfounded.
Where did Princess Consort's words come from?
If they, the Elite Tiger Guards, had followed Wang Fei, they would not have allowed Wang Fei to be harassed by Hei Feng Zhai's bandits right under their noses. Wouldn't they have been dragged to the drill grounds by Wang Ye to be taught a lesson?
Qin Yining saw Tang Xiu's dazed expression and understood what they were thinking. He chuckled and said, "You don't have to worry. Wang Ye is a smart person. He will understand my intentions immediately. He won't blame you."
Tang Xiu's thoughts were exposed. She shyly scratched the back of her head and blushed. As if she was afraid of embarrassing herself, she carefully glanced at Ji Yun's expression.
Ji Yun also didn't expect Tang Xiu to look at her with such a silly expression. She couldn't help but blush. She glared at him and looked away.
Qin Yining looked at the two of them and understood. He knew that Ji Yun was thin-skinned, so he didn't expose her. He only smiled and said, "It's been hard on you. Go quickly."
"Yes, this subordinate will go immediately."
Tang Xiu's expression was serious. She responded softly and turned to leave.
After she left, Ji Yun went to close the door. When she turned around, she met Qin Yining's playful gaze. She couldn't help blushing and said, "Wang Fei, it's late. You should rest."
Qin Yining smiled and said, "Alright. Come over. Let's sleep together. When Bing Tang comes back, let her sleep on the warm kang. "
"Okay."
Ji Yun responded. The two of them climbed onto the bed. They each covered themselves with a blanket and lay down next to each other.
In the darkness, Qin Yining asked Ji Yun softly, "I see that Imperial Bodyguard Tang has a good character. He is also upright. He seems to have some feelings for you. Ji Yun, what do you think?"
Ji Yun was suddenly asked these questions. She woke up from her sleep and said shyly and anxiously, "Wang Fei, why are you learning from that bad girl, Bing Tang?"
When Qin Yining heard this tone, he knew that Ji Yun was really moved. He couldn't help but laugh and tease, "How am I bad? Besides, you're already at this age. It's time for you to consider marriage. This isn't a bad thing. "
Qin Yining turned over and nudged Ji Yun. "Hey, what do you think of him? If you have the heart, I can ask Wang Ye to help you look into his family background for your reference. You're someone by my side. Even if you get married in the future, you'll have to return to my side to be a steward. If his family's situation is complicated, we'll have to consider it. "
"He doesn't seem to have any relatives in his family. Just like me, he was saved by Wang Ye. If it wasn't for Wang Ye, he would have starved to death. "Ji Yun's tone was slightly anxious.
Qin Yining smiled and said, "So you already know so much."
Ji Yun then realized that she seemed to have fallen into a trap. She had unknowingly exposed her understanding of Tang Xiu. She couldn't help but say angrily, "Wang Fei is really too bad." She hugged the quilt and turned her back to Qin Yining. "It's so late. This servant won't talk to you anymore. This servant wants to sleep."
Qin Yining looked at Ji Yun's back and couldn't help but smile. "Alright, alright. I won't ask anymore. I'm going to sleep too."
Although the situation was tense and the matter of the treasure was tricky, Qin Yining liked the people around her from the bottom of her heart when she saw them so energetic. Ji Yun and Bing Tang had gone through life and death with her. They were loyal to her. She had to be responsible for their future. She also had to consider what kind of person Tang Xiu was before deciding.

Jinghu Wei rushed to the capital on horseback. Even in the rainy weather, his speed was faster than Qin Yining's group of carriages.
Therefore, Pang Xiao received a message three days later.
That afternoon, Pang Xiao sent out invitations to invite his former subordinates to the Wang fu to drink.
Pang Xiao had been "demoted" to be an official in the construction of the imperial mausoleum. The generals were more or less dissatisfied. Many of them had already seen the end of their lives from Pang Xiao's experience. Everyone had shed their blood together on the battlefield. Some of them had even been saved by Pang Xiao. The scars on Pang Xiao's body were left behind because of them.
Therefore, it was fine if Pang Xiao didn't invite anyone, but he took the initiative to send out invitations. These people all arrived.
Pang Xiao was originally not allowed to drink because he was "recuperating from his illness." But seeing that his brothers were happy, he still ate a few big bowls.
These former subordinates also drank too much.
When a man drank too much, it was inevitable that he would be excited and talk too much.
Pang Xiao was tongue-tied. His voice was also much louder than usual. He slammed the table and said incoherently, "… Everyone, tell me, what kind of man am I? Ah? I'm a son. My son can't protect me, and my father can't protect me either. My whole family, including my father-in-law's family, is gone, all gone! "
Speaking of this sad matter, Pang Xiao's eyes were filled with hot tears. He took a big gulp of wine.
When these subordinates heard this, their hearts were also filled with sorrow. A few with shallow eye sockets had already started to howl.
Huzi and Xu Weizhi brought people to pour wine to warm up the atmosphere. When they saw this scene, even those who knew the inside story were affected by the emotions. Their noses also turned sour.
Your Majesty really treated Wang Ye too unfairly. He didn't reward Wang Ye for his meritorious service, but he went around looking for flaws. Even if he didn't have any, he still wanted to make one up for him.
Who would be able to withstand such treatment?
Pang Xiao grabbed the wine bowl with his big hand. "This illness of mine came at the wrong time. F * ck!
That damn Heifeng Stockade. They saw that my wife was pretty, so they flirted with her. If I was useful, my wife wouldn't have to buy a house for me. She wouldn't have been so scared by those bastards from Heifeng Stockade that she couldn't sleep.
”
"What Heifeng Stockade?"
"Wang Ye, are you talking about the stockade in the northwest of Huichuan County?" An official in charge of military affairs in the north asked.
Pang Xiao's almond-shaped eyes widened. He nodded and said, "That's right, the one next to Huichuan County. It's said that there are more than a hundred bandits in their stockade, and they commit all kinds of crimes all day long. This is also because I don't have any troops. When I was in the south, I led my brothers from the South Pacifying Army and attacked every stockade we saw. When the southern bandits saw the flag of the South Pacifying Army, they couldn't wait to kneel down and call me grandpa! I'm now a tiger whose teeth have been pulled out. I'm useless! Otherwise, I'll go and squash those bugs to death! "
Thinking back to the time when they suppressed Beiji Country, the brothers couldn't help but sigh with emotion. When Pang Xiao suppressed the bandits in the south, they had all heard the details from the storytellers. Every time they heard it, their blood would boil with excitement.
Now that they were talking about this at the wine table, the brothers couldn't help but feel agitated.
Everyone was cursing and swearing under the influence of alcohol, cursing the eighteen generations of the road robbers' ancestors.
In the end, the official in charge of military affairs in the north said, "I think it's time for our local garrison troops to learn from Wang Ye and train their troops. When we were conquering the world, the army was like a nest of tigers that came down from the mountains. Now that we've been at peace for too long, won't these brothers who went to serve as garrison troops become a nest of kittens instead? Wang Ye's method of attacking the stockade is good. He can train the troops, see blood, and even get some military pay. Why not? "
"Yes, let them go and attack the Heifeng Stockade. Not only can they train the troops, but they can also help Her Highness vent her anger."
"Yes, yes!"
Everyone shouted and talked at once. While they were half-drunk, they decided on the matter.
In the end, Pang Xiao couldn't handle the alcohol. He was so drunk that he laid on the table and started snoring. Everyone also passed out drunk in the main hall of the Wang Fu.
Hu Zi and Xu Weizhi brought people to carry the guests one by one and sent them to the guest rooms. Pang Xiao was also carried back to the bedroom by Huzi and Jinghu Wei.
After Jinghu Wei, who carried Pang Xiao, left, Pang Xiao immediately sat up and said in a low voice, "This King is drunk. He might be drunk for two days. Tomorrow morning, you will guard the guest rooms and see what they say. If they forget about suppressing the bandits, you can mention it."
"Wang Ye is afraid that they will pretend to be stupid and not do anything for you?"
Pang Xiao hiccuped and said helplessly, "After all, I haven't been in office for a long time. No matter how good the relationship between brothers is, it's inevitable that the tea will turn cold when people leave. Just remind them and they will help me out on the surface. "
"Wang Ye, don't worry." Huzi nodded with a smile. "They won't. Tomorrow, I will pretend to be stupid and remind them. If they don't do anything, we will have plenty of words to shame them."
"You have so many ideas." Pang Xiao lay down and said, "Tell Mr. Xu to prepare for departure. Arrange for people to go to Zhong Yibo's residence to ask when Zhong Yibo plans to leave. Let's also stop the Imperial Academy of Medicine for the time being. "
"Yes, I know."
