Return of the Swallow

Chapter 789 Asking for help

Jiyun and Bingtang both took a breath of cold air, their heads almost exploding.

Princess, this is no joke. Ji Yun said in a low voice: "It's so good, why did the Holy One do this?"

When something goes wrong, there must be a monster. When I entered the palace, it was unusual for my father to reward the army. In addition to the situation in the south, it is very likely that the Lord wanted to force the prince to rebel!

As soon as these words came out, the two maids took a breath of surprise.

Qin Yining continued: There are no major events in the country now, and the foreign troubles in the south can be ignored for the time being. It is the best time to get rid of the prince. Taking advantage of the fact that the two armies have just defeated the Tatars and their morale is high, they can take down the prince in one go. The Holy One can sit back and relax from now on.

Jiyun and Bingtang are not stupid people. When they heard what Qin Yining said, they understood after thinking about it carefully. Both of them felt cold in their bodies due to fear.

This, what should I do? Princess, what do you think we should do? As long as you say it, your slave will definitely obey. Ji Yun whispered in a panic, "Why don't I find a way to escape with you!"

No way. Qin Yining shook his head. If I disappeared from the palace for no reason, the Holy One would have even more reason to search the palace. When the time comes, how can the whole family of the royal family survive if they are randomly accused?

So, what to do! Bingtang's eyes were red.

Qin Yining bit her lip. A piece of the skin on her lip was torn off by her teeth, and blood oozed from her lip.

After a moment, Qin Yining said slowly: First, find a way to save my father. The Holy One sent my father to reward the troops outside the Tianyu Pass. I thought he would definitely arrange for my father to die unexpectedly, and he would not be able to do anything inside the pass.

For, for, why? Bingtang's voice was hoarse and stuttered.

Silly girl, my father is an official of the imperial court.

If the Holy One wants to kill him, would he dare to use other ministers to do it? Wouldn't that tell other ministers that even those who are loyal to the Holy Emperor will not have a good ending? How will we employ people after becoming the Holy Emperor?

Therefore, the Holy Emperor will definitely throw the blame to the Tatars. Anyway, if something happens to outsiders in the Tianyu Pass, the Holy Spirit will be beyond his reach. It's just the Tatars who went too far and went back on their word.

That's what the princess said. What to do? Guard Cao also followed his wife to the south. Apart from a few elite tiger guards left by the prince and a few of his own guards, the master probably doesn't have many available people around him. Ji Yun said with a pale face.

what to do?

Qin Yining didn't know what to do.

The four northern passes, Tianyu, Tianlang, Tianshu, Tianmen, and Tianyu Pass are closest to the Tatar front line and are really far away from the capital.

Even if she is a free person now, she may not be able to do anything, not to mention that she is still detained in the palace and cannot do anything as she pleases!

She believed her father was smart.

But no matter how smart he is, his father is just a weak scholar. What can he do in the face of absolute force?

Qin Yining bit her nails, biting her left hand and her right hand, thinking of a solution without saying a word.

Bingtang and Ji Yunhe were racking their brains. After a while, Ji Yun whispered: Princess, how about we ask Uncle Zhongyi for help? Uncle Zhongyi once said that he would arrange people in the palace

inappropriate. Qin Yining shook his head. This matter was of great importance. Firstly, innocent people could not be implicated. Secondly, no one could guarantee whether Uncle Zhongyi would reveal the news.

But what Uncle Zhongyi said before

I know what you mean. Qin Yining pursed his lips and said unnaturally, and I could vaguely guess what he was thinking. Why would a man be so nice to me for no reason?

But his intention is for me, not for my father and the prince. Maybe he will kill the prince quickly. The situation is so complicated now, how can I trust him completely?

Bingtang and Jiyun were speechless for a while, and had to admit that what Qin Yining said was right.

What should Lu Heng Cun do if he wants to kill Pang Xiao and then have the princess? If they pray to him, they will do bad things.

It's just that this road is impassable and Qin Huaiyuan has been transferred away from the capital. What should they do? They really couldn't think of a solution.

All three of them looked extremely pale.

Qin Yining sat there blankly, her hands and feet were cold. During lunch, the palace attendants brought a food box, and Qin Yining only took two bites before putting down her chopsticks.

She couldn't help but think of all the things she had experienced since returning to the Qin Mansion, and her mood gradually changed from anxious to calm.

It's okay, it will be okay this time. Qin Yining closed her eyes and murmured softly.

Jiyun and Bingtang have been with Qin Yining for so long and are well aware of her difficulties. How could they not understand the pain in her heart?

This feeling of knowing that the knife is hanging above their heads and trying to fall, and the handle of the knife is still in someone else's hand, but they have no choice but to do anything about it, is really torturous.

The two wanted to persuade Qin Yining, but they couldn't find any words. Because Qin Yining was soberer than anyone else and much smarter than them, their pale words only lingered in his mind for a while and felt useless before they were spoken.

The three of them remained silent until the sun set and the palace was gradually enveloped in darkness.

Outside the palace gate, someone from the palace raised a palace lantern. Warm light shone in from outside the palace, and the rhombus lattice fan cast a clear shadow on the ground.

Bingtang and Jiyun went to hold the lamps. The hall was illuminated by orange lights, and there was a faint smell of burning candles and the aroma of food in the air.

Princess, dinner is here. You didn’t eat much at noon, so you should eat some at least now. Ji Yun persuaded worriedly, "You have been acting like this. You haven't thought about the matter clearly yet. What can you do if you suffer first?" You need to take care of yourself before you can figure it out.

Yes, you always behave like this, and Concubine Shun may also notice that you are different, and I'm afraid it won't be good if it reaches the ears of the Holy Emperor. Bingtang reminded softly.

Qin Yining knew what they said was right, but how could one control human emotions?

Qin Yining really wished that Pang Xiao was by her side at this moment, so that she could lean into his arms with peace of mind and leave all the problems to him to deal with. She could just wait for the good results with peace of mind.

But ever since she was little, she has never had this kind of fate. She has always had to work hard to do things and plan in order to get the stability that others can usually get.

She was a little discouraged, but she had to grit her teeth and hold on. She had no time to complain, let alone blame others.

Qin Yining felt less cold after being forced into a bowl of porridge.

Such an empty palace and such lonely orange candlelight reminded her of the days when she was imprisoned in Xiyue.

Xiyue

Suddenly, Qin Yining stood up suddenly, pulled Ji Yun and said: "Ji Yun, I want to ask you to help me send a message to shopkeeper Zhong Da."

Jiyun nodded quickly: Princess, your order.

Qin Yining thought for a while and shook his head, no, you can't take the risk. It's too difficult to leave the palace in person. In this way, before I entered the palace, my father once told me that there was a chamberlain named Jiang Yuan who served tea in the imperial study, whom he and the prince trained. You try to find him quietly and ask him to help deliver a letter to shopkeeper Zhong Da.

Ji Yun said hesitantly: Princess, can that person be trusted? If he leaks the contents of the letter, it will be a great disadvantage to you. It is better for you to find a way to leave the palace and tell the shopkeeper Zhong Da.

No, I just have you and Bingtang with me. There is one less person beside me for no reason, and outsiders will definitely be suspicious. Besides, can you leave the palace as soon as you say you want? You still listen to me. As for the letter, I will write it more reservedly. What's more, the Holy One has already made murderous intentions for me, so it doesn't matter what I write. Even if I continue to follow the rules, he still has the ability to find out what's wrong with me.

Qin Yining looked for eyebrow thrush and wrote on his handkerchief what he wanted to tell shopkeeper Zhong Da. She has been using this square handkerchief for a long time, so shopkeeper Zhong Da should recognize it. She did not explain the content in detail, only a few strokes, and outsiders would not be able to understand it.

She asked shopkeeper Zhong Da to find Liao Zhibing, and asked Liao Zhibing to lead people to use tracking Gu to find the people of the Minuo tribe, and asked the people of the Minuo tribe to rescue people outside the Tianyu Pass.

This is the only solution Qin Yining can think of now.

Although Xiyue is in the desert, with the tracking Gu, there is no danger in bringing enough water and dry food out. Moreover, they were relatively close to Qin Huai, even much closer than Pang Xiao going directly to rescue him.

I don’t know if all this is too late.

Qin Yining folded the handkerchief and gave it to Jiyun. Once discovered, he would destroy the handkerchief immediately. Don't take risks. Safety first.

Jiyun nodded and put away the veil solemnly. Princess, don't worry. Although it's not easy to climb out of the palace wall, you can still find someone to hide from others. Don't worry.

Qin Yining gently patted Ji Yun's shoulder, so I excused myself from feeling unwell and went to bed early. I believe Concubine Shun doesn't have the time to trouble me. Concubine Shun didn't come during the day, and she might be lucky at night, so she wouldn't have much free time.

Qin Yining took off his clothes and lay down early. Bingtang could not help but be noticed by others, so she simply stayed by Qin Yining's side, refusing to go out if no one came to look for her.

Qin Yining prayed in her heart, hoping that Jiyun would go well and never be discovered. again

Pray that the people in the Minuo Department will be as loyal as they said before and be willing to help her rescue Qin Huaiyuan, and pray that they can make it in time.

His mind was racing, worrying about gains and losses, and before he knew it, Qin Yining fell asleep. Maybe she had been thinking too much during the day, and she was frightened and nervous. She didn't sleep well either. Her dreams were filled with scenes of her father being robbed and killed by pursuing soldiers, or scenes of someone secretly poisoning her father.

She was frightened and restless even when she fell asleep, with cold sweat dripping from her forehead, and Bingtang felt heartbroken just looking at it.

If the prince were here and saw the princess being frightened like this, he wouldn't know how distressed he would be. Maybe he would be ready to tear the culprit's heart out with his own hands, right?
