Return of the Swallow

Qin Yining knew that Princess Tana and Anari Khan had similar temperaments. Neither was stupid, but they were both fast-talking people, which was the same as many of the people she had befriended in Tartar. With such a straightforward temperament, it is almost difficult to hide what is on his mind.

Princess Tana's pride today is different from when she was summoned by Li Qitian in the past, and there seems to be some gloating in it.

Qin Yining couldn't help but wake up. She couldn't understand any of the provocations in Princess Tana's words. She only smiled and listened without taking any action.

Even Bingtang and Jiyun noticed something strange about Qin Yining.

After lunch, Princess Tana took a nap in the dormitory, and Qin Yining also had some free time to talk to Bingtang and Jiyun in the side hall.

"The princess seemed to be acting extra cautiously today. Ji Yun asked in a low voice: "But what happened? "

Qin Yining hugged a soft elastic ink pillow and leaned on the warm couch next to the window, and said tiredly: "It's nothing, but I feel that Concubine Shun looks different today, as if something has been calculated." As if I was proud. So I am more cautious. After all, some things only need to be said once. If you say them too many times, not only will they not have any effect, but they will also be easily used as the starting point."

Ji Yun nodded and said, "That's what the princess said."

Bingtang also said: "I have been paying close attention to the princess's diet these days. Although there is a royal dining room in the palace, the favored empress has her own small kitchen. I see that Concubine Shun often asks the small kitchen to cook tartare for her. Some snacks. The princess should be careful about what she puts into her mouth when she is around Concubine Shun."

Qin Yining thought about it for a moment and said, "It would not be a wise move to poison me. To put it bluntly, if I was poisoned to death, both my father and the prince would find him for a detailed investigation. If the investigation Whatever happens, Concubine Shun won’t be able to make a good profit herself.”

"Bah, bah, bah! Hurry up and spit it out! How come the princess can say anything and is not afraid of violating taboos!" Bingtang was so anxious that she almost slapped Qin Yining.

Seeing her look like that, Qin Yining said funnyly: "Okay, I'm just making an analogy, and I'm not really stupid enough to let people poison me."

Ji Yun's face didn't look good either, "Princess, you are a bit too lenient. The slaves are all anxious here, but you don't do anything the whole day. I want to remind you, don't stop going." Go to your heart.

"Princess, you are smart and know what you should and should not do on a daily basis, but not everyone knows what they should do. What if you encounter someone who is confused and confused, and you are really poisoned? There are still many fools in this world, and there are more impulsive people than rational ones.

The princess should consider everything. "

"That's it. Princess, you should pay more attention."

Jiyun and Bingtang exchanged words with each other. Qin Yining also sat up straight and said seriously: "I understand."

She indeed did not consider this aspect and made the mistake of judging others by herself.

Qin Yining spent the day cautiously with Jiyun and Bingtang.

To our relief, nothing unexpected happened on this day.

That night Li Qitian turned over Princess Tana's brand again.

Qin Yining took the opportunity to have a good sleep again.

And in the dead of night, with the beauty Li Qitian in his arms, just as he was drowsy, a pair of smooth lotus arms wrapped around him again, and their soft little hands began to make trouble under his body without shame.

A chuckle escaped from Li Qitian's throat. He pressed Princess Tana down, pinched her sensitive tip with his fingers and said, "Why, why are you so enthusiastic today?"

Princess Tana gasped a few times, pressed Li Qitian to turn over, and pressed herself up instead.

After being rolled over by the red waves, the clouds and rain stopped, and Li Qitian was exhausted from indulging in it. His big hands were still lingering on Princess Tana's skin like gelatin.

Princess Tana's voice was hoarse and lazy, and she spoke very slowly in unskilled Dazhou dialect: "At first, I wanted my concubine to come and get married. I hated the Khan to death."

"Really? It's understandable." Li Qitian said with his eyes closed.

Princess Tana added: "But now, I don't hate him at all."

"Why?" Li Qitian asked cooperatively.

"Because if I hadn't chosen my concubine to marry me, I wouldn't have met the Holy Sage. I never thought that the person who was so unbearable in the Qin family's mouth would turn out to be such a brave and heroic real man."

Li Qitian suddenly opened his eyes when he heard this, but his hand movements were still the same and his voice was still lazy, "Really? Well, you just said, who said who is a bad person?"

Princess Tana was stunned, covered her mouth and took a breath, "Ah, I, I didn't say anything. I just think it's great to meet the Holy One."

Li Qitian narrowed his eyes, turned sideways and grabbed Princess Tana's shoulders and asked, "What have you heard about me before?"

"Yeah, it's nothing." Princess Tana seemed to be worried, her watery eyes were filled with mist, and her voice was trembling, "Your Majesty, just now you..."

"Don't say I heard it wrong." Li Qitian sat up and grabbed a bright yellow jacket to put on.

Princess Tana, who was wrapped in the quilt, also sat up hesitantly, hugging the quilt, her round shoulders and beautiful collarbones were exposed outside the quilt, and her healthy skin revealed the vitality and fragrance of youth, making it difficult to move away. Open your eyes.

Li Qitian's dressing movements stopped.

Princess Tana lowered her head and said: "It's nothing. Isn't Mrs. Qin in my concubine's palace these days, teaching me the Zhou dialect and rules? I don't speak the Zhou dialect very well now, and there are many people who listen to me." I understand what it means, but I can’t say it.

"Ms. Qin probably thought that I couldn't understand. When she was taken to the Tartars, she often criticized you in order to survive. Now she even uses guns and sticks in her words to say that I'm stupid. That's why he deserves a stupid king.

"My concubine still listened to her and said..."

"What did you say?" Li Qitian asked with a smile.

Princess Tana's head hung lower and lower, "Your Majesty, if you don't blame me, I will tell you."

"I don't blame you. It's too late for me to cherish you, so how can I blame you?"

Princess Tana smiled timidly and then said: "She said that you should not be the emperor of this world, but her husband should be the emperor. She also said that if her husband didn't want to be the emperor, it would be his turn now. Not until you..."

I didn’t have the guts to finish what I said next.

Because Princess Tana was like a keen little leopard who discovered the crisis, and consciously closed her mouth.

Li Qitian's eyes were so terrifying. It seemed like he could be strangled to death at any time.

Princess Tana calmed down a little at this time, and her determination to avenge Anari Khan could not help but temporarily put aside under Li Qitian's cold gaze, which was like a venomous tongue.

She always thought that she was a bird that could fly freely. But in front of Li Qitian, she realized that she, a bird, might not even have the courage to flap her wings.

Li Qitian was silent. Even if he didn't speak, his strong aura made Princess Tana cringe and rub her back.

On normal days, Li Qitian might not believe what Princess Tana said.

But someone just impeached Pang Xiao at the court meeting today.

At that time, he ordered Pang Xiao to get rid of Yuchi Yan, although the order he gave was a secret order. However, this matter was also seriously discussed with several close ministers at the Xiaochao meeting.

Now that so much time has passed and Pang Xiao holds the military power of the old capital again, is it possible that even a hundred thousand Southern troops cannot defeat a single Yuchiyan?

How many months did it take Ji Zeyu to resist the Tatar invasion? There was no response from Pang Xiao.

Li Qitian was already worried about this matter, but today another minister wanted to go with him. Now I heard Princess Tana’s words again.

It's hard not to let Li Qitian think too much.

No matter how powerful, smart, or capable Qin Yining is, she is still just a female figure.

How can a woman have the confidence to say such a thing? If she hadn't been hearing it all day long, would she have been able to blurt out such words?

Li Qitian looked at Princess Tana again.

This woman was just trying to tell someone in front of him in a different way. She was so frightened that she became like this. Coupled with his observation of her these days, she couldn't make up such a lie.

That's not to say that Tana wouldn't make up lies to murder Qin Yining.

Rather, Tana didn't have the brains to tell the lie exactly on one point, poking it at the place he cared about most. What Tana said today was probably taught by someone.

In fact, after the palace change that day, Li Qitian still firmly believed in Tianjizi's calculations, but he was somewhat moved by the support of Pang Xiao and the Qin family.

It's just that the touching heart is not as important as his throne.

Sometimes Li Qitian thinks about the past, thinking of the years they fought together on the battlefield, and Pang Xiao's character. If he said that Pang Xiao would conspire against him, and if he didn't look at the calculations, Li Qitian would not believe it entirely.

If Pang Xiao had the intention to rebel, there were indeed many opportunities for him to succeed. Not to mention anything else, he could kill him directly even when he was trapped in the underground palace.

But isn't he still alive and well now?

But Tianjizi's words and the ministers' reminders made Li Qitian unable to stop thinking about it.

Should he believe Pang Xiao?

If you get rid of Pang Xiao, everything will be safe.

But if Pang Xiao is really eliminated, will there be people talking behind his back, saying that he has no tolerance for meritorious officials and that he has no tolerance for killing nobles just after he ascended the throne?

Thinking of this, Li Qitian's brows knitted together, forming a deep vertical line between his brows.

At least he had to prove that Pang Xiao was indeed rebellious, so killing him was justifiable, right?

Princess Tana's heartbeat was like a drum. She approached Li Qitian tremblingly, hooked her little finger on Li Qitian's sleeve and shook it: "Your Majesty, did I say something wrong?"

Li Qitian looked at Princess Tana, smiled gently, scratched the bridge of her nose with his fingers, hugged her and lay down and said: "It's getting late, let's make arrangements."

"Your Majesty, I have to go back to the palace later."

"I allow you to sleep here today." Li Qitian smiled, hugged the soft beauty, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Princess Tana rested her head on Li Qitian's shoulder, buried her face in him, and breathed a sigh of relief quietly.

In her heart, she scolded Na Risu so much.

She did as Risu said that day, but Emperor Zhou looked very sinister, as if he wanted to kill her. For a moment just now, she really thought she might be killed.
