Not wanting to stay any longer, Yan Qing withdrew his gaze and headed towards the Hou Mansion, causing Yan Kangping to curse angrily.

"You cold-blooded, heartless bastard! I think you just want all the men in the Yan family to die, so that you can dominate and dominate without mercy!"

Yan Qing paused as he stepped onto the steps, and suddenly thought of something. He turned his head under Yan Kangping's expectant gaze, indifferently twitched the corner of his lips and said with a smile: "It's good to go, so I won't see you off."

After saying this, Yan Qing ignored Yan Kangping's loud scolding behind him and went straight into the house.

As soon as he stepped into the Hou Mansion and walked around the screen wall, Yan Qing met the boy who was waiting in Lanzhu Garden.

"What's causing trouble again?" Yan Qing asked.

As soon as the young man heard Yan Qing's question, he quickly replied: "The second master asked what is going on in front of the house?"

Yan Qing sneered and said: "The control is quite lenient. Let me tell him that Yan Kangping is contemptuous of the law, his home is being searched, and he will be exiled in three days. If he doesn't want to be implicated and never come back, he'd better be at ease."

According to Wen Zhemao's character, Yan Kangping, whose failure in doing things caused him to lose power, and who was regarded by others as a stepping stone before he fell into trouble, was probably exiled to the Palace of Hell.

After hearing this, the boy knew that Yan Qing was in a worried mood at this time, so he didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he responded and left.

As soon as the boy left, Yan Qing met Yan Qin again.

"You kept a straight face when you came back. Who provoked you?" said Yan Qin.

When Yan Qing heard Yan Qin's tone, her heart went blank. All her thoughts were gone. She subconsciously rubbed her fingers and said, "Mom, why are you here?"

"If I don't come over, do you plan to leave immediately when I come back?"

Yan Qin gave her an angry look and said unforgivingly, "When I came out of the palace, I didn't even say I would come back to say that I was safe, and then I went to the military camp. Why is it so urgent that you don't even have time to go home and take a look?"

Yan Qing looked away with a guilty conscience and spoke in a flustered voice: "Well... it's not that urgent, it's just that they said it in a hurry. I thought it was some big deal..."

Looking at Yan Qing's fluttering eyes, Yan Qin knew that she was fooling her again, and sighed: "You, just like your father, take care of everything by yourself. Mother doesn't ask you that, I just hope

Take care of yourself. You went to the military camp in a hurry and didn't prepare any medicine. When will your injury heal?"

Yan Qing knew that Mrs. Yan Qin was concerned about him, and his heart warmed slightly, and he said softly: "It's okay, mother, my injury has healed greatly these days. Doctor Hong said that it will take at most two months to recover as before."

"Mr. Hong...Hong Gong?" Yan Qin was slightly stunned.

"Well, Dr. Hong also said that I should call her aunt."

Yan Qing touched his nose unconsciously.

She always felt a little at a loss as to the sudden addition of Aunt Hong.

Yan Qin was silent for a rare moment, her eyes smiling but with sadness hidden in them.

Yan Qing saw Yan Qin's complex expression and couldn't help but wonder: "What's wrong, mother? Is there something wrong?"

"Nothing wrong."

Yan Qin shook her head slightly and said, "Hong Gong and your father are old acquaintances. It is right for you to call her aunt."

I don't know if it was her imagination, but Yan Qing always felt that the tone of Yan Qin's words had some strange and profound meaning, but before she could ask, Yan Qin changed the topic: "Which family did you bump into in front of the door?

Did he ask you to help him?"

Hearing Mrs. Yan Qin talk about Yan Kangping, Yan Qing's eyes darkened. She nodded slightly and wanted to persuade Mrs. Yan Qin not to interfere with this matter. Instead, Mrs. Yan Qin persuaded her first: "Don't interfere with this matter.

There is no need to worry about ancestral ties. The country has its own laws and the family has its own rules. If your father were still alive and saw that he was so greedy for the state treasury and disregarded the livelihood of the people, he would definitely be beaten to death before he set out on his journey."

Yan Qin was slightly stunned by Yan Qin's words, but felt a lot of comfort in his heart.

I really underestimated my mother. In the past, I only thought that my mother was weak, and I only wanted to do my best to protect her, even if I had to swallow my anger and grovel for this, it was okay.

But I never thought that when I would no longer submit in this life, I would realize that my mother was far more tenacious and stronger than I thought.

For a moment, Yan Qing didn't know whether she was willing to submit for her mother in her previous life, or whether her mother chose to obey for her.

"I know."

Yan Qing put his arms around Yan Qin's shoulders and said to her with a rare touch, "Mom, don't worry, when everything here is settled, I will resign from the Holy Land. Let's go to the north to live a good life with my grandparents and the others.

They take care of themselves until they die."

Yan Qin held her hand, her slender fingers had clear joints, and there were thick calluses on the palm and the tiger's mouth, which made Yan Qin feel distressed: "Mom, don't be in a hurry, don't tire yourself."

Yan Qing promised to send Mrs. Yan Qin back to Qing Shuyuan. After having lunch together, and being stared at by Yan Qin and drinking medicine, Yan Qing returned to her courtyard.

In the study, Yan Qi had been waiting for a long time. As soon as he saw Yan Qing, he showed up and greeted him: "Master, there is news."

Yan Qing's expression suddenly turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Say."

"Yes." Yan Qi responded and said: "The female official who served the wine that day was originally punished as a low-class palace maid, but she died suddenly the next day. Her body and her clothes were burned clean.

You can find out more things."

"Do you know who did it?" Yan Qing asked.

"I don't know." Yan Qi said, "But according to the informant, it seems that someone close to the queen did it."

"Queen?" Yan Qing frowned.

The queen plotted against herself and Wen Zhemao, so wasn't she afraid that she and Wen Zhemao would join forces to seize King Duan's power?

Although he has no power now, Wen Zhemao would think of letting himself earn military merits for him and win the hearts of his ministers. There is no reason that the daughter taught by the old fox in the Prime Minister's Mansion would not think of it.

Yan Qing sensed that there was something fishy in this and ordered: "Continue to check to see if anyone has entered the palace and met the queen before the person died. The queen has already determined the punishment, so it cannot be changed without reason."

Yan Qi suddenly woke up and was about to leave as soon as he answered, but was stopped by Yan Qing: "King Duan, let people keep an eye on him as well. Remember not to alert the enemy."

Just as Yan Qing was giving instructions, someone knocked on the door.

Yan Qing glanced at the door, and when he looked back, Yan Qi had disappeared.

"What's the matter?" Yan Qing asked Qing Yi who came in from the door.

Qing Yi presented the donkey in his hand to Yan Qing's case and said: "Miss, Prince Duan's Mansion has posted a message saying that the Double Ninth Festival is approaching, and Prince Duan invites all the talented people and beauties in the capital to have a banquet, enjoy the autumn scenery, and celebrate this year's great harvest.

"

King Duan?

Yan Qing's eyes darkened slightly, staring at the royal palace's seal on the top of the post, and tapped the table with his fingertips.

Duan Wang Wen Zhehan, the third son of the emperor and the direct descendant of the empress, was backed by the Prime Minister's Mansion. A group of civil servants led by Prime Minister Xu Xiangfeng were all his strong supporters, and there was also the support of Zhenbei Marquis Guo Youning. He was the biggest supporter on the way to the throne for the eldest son of the emperor Wen Zhemao.
