Xie Yue smiled and said, "There's nothing we can do about the chaos. We have a lot of serious things to do. If we hadn't dealt with Bian shi in one go, she would have become obedient. In the future, she might have caused trouble again. It's hard to avoid distracting wangfei. Don't forget, there are six people living in that house. "
"Yes." Qin Yining said seriously, "I have to be more careful when I go there these days. After all, those people are not easy to deal with. They might have arranged for a few people to keep an eye on them. We don't know their surroundings, so we have to be on guard."
Xie Yue nodded, "That's exactly what I mean. Right now, Bian shi's vitality has been greatly damaged. She might not have time to make trouble for you in this period of time. She's only thinking about how to explain things to her family. She's already in a terrible fix. We can make a good plan to figure out how to get the stone. "
Qin Yining actually had some ideas, but she also knew that if she did it herself, it would easily attract the attention of others. It was better to wait and see.
"Wang Ye should be arriving soon. In a few days, we can discuss with Wang Ye before making a decision. "
Xie Yue said, "Two heads are better than Zhuge Liang. Wang Ye and wangfei are both good at scheming. When the time comes, with Brother Xu and the other strategists, we will definitely be able to discuss an appropriate plan."
Qin Yining was completely focused on the matter of the treasure. He did not exchange pleasantries with Xie Yue and only said honestly, "I hope so. But this matter is truly difficult. "
Of course it was difficult.
The stone was used by the emperor to build the imperial mausoleum. Even if the local county magistrate and premier had not arrived to supervise the construction of the imperial mausoleum, there would be a day when they would have to face their responsibilities. If the stone was secretly transported out, wouldn't the two of them be thoroughly investigated by the higher-ups?
Moreover, if they wanted to steal so much stone from the heavily guarded area, even if they knew the rough location of the stone, it would not be a simple matter.
So, what method could they use to transport the stone out in the open?
Qin Yining was looking forward to Pang Xiao's arrival. That way, they could have a good discussion about the next step.
But in contrast to Qin Yining, Bian Ruohan hoped that Lu Heng would be slower.
Because her house was really unsightly now.
However, things did not go as planned. The next day, Lu Heng and Pang Xiao's team entered Huichuan County.
"Zhong Yibo, This King will be returning to his residence first. If he is free, I would like to invite Zhong Yibo to my humble abode to have a cup of tea." Pang Xiao lifted the curtain of the carriage and smiled as he cupped his hands in greeting to the other carriage.
The blue curtain of the carriage was lifted. Lu Heng smiled and returned the courtesy, saying, "Thanks to Prince Zhongshun for taking care of us along the way. When everything is settled, I will invite Wang Ye to my residence for a cup of wine."
"Certainly. Goodbye. "
"Goodbye."
The two carriages said their goodbyes and the teams went in two different directions.
When Pang Xiao's carriage slowly stopped, Qin Yining had been waiting in front of the gate with an umbrella for a long time. The corners of his skirt were stained with mud and water.
Pang Xiao jumped off the carriage. Huzi immediately followed with an umbrella.
"Sister Yi." Pang Xiao only had eyes for one person at this moment. He didn't care about whether he was wet or not. Huzi was very tired chasing after them. He stuck his tongue out at Bing Tang who was following behind Qin Yining.
Bing Tang was amused by him and couldn't help but laugh.
Qin Yining looked back at Bing Tang and smiled, saying, "Did the journey go smoothly?" He then told Huzi, "I have already arranged the rooms for the brothers. Let Tang Xiu take you there. The kitchen has prepared food. Let's have lunch together later. "
Such a homely greeting showed that Qin Yining didn't treat them as outsiders. Huzi and Xu Weizhi felt very comfortable and had a sense of belonging as if they had returned home.
Tang Xiu took Huzi and the others to the front yard to settle down.
Qin Yining and Pang Xiao walked hand in hand along the corridor. Pang Xiao held an umbrella to block the raindrops that were blown into the corridor by the wind.
"Did the journey go smoothly?"
"It went well. It's just that it has been raining for a month. The journey was really difficult. Otherwise, our journey could have been brought forward a few days. "
"Don't bring it forward. You won't be able to see a good show if you bring it forward a few days."
"Oh?"
Pang Xiao lowered his head to look at Qin Yining's sly little face. They had been transmitting messages to each other. However, he was about to arrive in Huichuan County, so he didn't spend any effort to find out more. He only ordered someone to inform Qin Yining of his arrival date in advance so that she wouldn't be in a hurry.
They hadn't communicated for a few days. Could it be that she had done something earth-shattering again?
The two entered the room. The servant girl had already prepared a bath and fragrant soup.
Qin Yining sent the servants away. He took off his outer robe and rolled up his sleeves to serve Pang Xiao. He also whispered to him what had happened in the past few days.
Pang Xiao was overjoyed when he heard that. His hearty laughter sounded particularly heart-wrenching in the bathroom.
Qin Yining was infected by his laughter and couldn't help but smile, "Do you think I went overboard?"
"No, you didn't. That man surnamed Lu does not have good intentions, he deserves to marry such a wastrel wife. Ay, don't you think his wife is stupid? "Pang Xiao turned around, his strong and sturdy arms rested on the edge of the tub.
Qin Yining scooped water with a wooden spoon and poured it on his back, "She's not stupid. She's just too arrogant and willful. She's not used to this environment and doesn't know what she can and can't do. That's why she makes mistakes sometimes. "
"You." Pang Xiao touched her delicate chin with his big hand and said, "You just don't want to talk bad about anyone behind their back, even if that person is really an idiot with bad intentions and stupid thoughts."
Qin Yining was amused by Pang Xiao's self-righteous tone and laughed. As long as she was with Pang Xiao, nothing seemed to be difficult for her. No matter how boring something was, it sounded funny when Pang Xiao said it. As long as she saw him, her mood would be extremely good.
How could Pang Xiao hold back when he saw her smile like a flower? He stood up and wrapped his arms around her slender and flexible waist and touched her moist lips.
"Sister Yi, can we have lunch later?"
Qin Yining blushed and gently pushed his shoulder away. "Don't do that. We already agreed that we'll be eating soon. Besides, it's broad daylight now. "
"It's raining anyway and the sky is very gloomy."
The "hungry" man was difficult to deal with, so the two of them didn't go out during lunch. Bing Tang and Ji Yun knew that the masters would be bored with each other when they met, so they arranged a banquet early to welcome Huzi and Xu Weizhi.
Everyone was very tactful and didn't ask much.
The next morning, after washing up, Qin Yining and Pang Xiao gathered Xie Yue, Xu Weizhi, and a few other strategists in the study to discuss the current situation in Huichuan County.
