Qingzhi paused, lowered his eyes and replied, "Is there someone I miss... Of course there are, but you shouldn't have to worry about that anymore, Miss..."
Qin Rushuang smiled, knowing that Qingzhi was worried about her, so she said, "Have you forgotten that we still have people in Kyoto? My mother and brother are both in Jingdong. If I think of a way to benefit the border, I can entrust my brother with it."
Qin Rushuang added: "Unless it's absolutely necessary, I won't take risks. I still have a child with me, so don't worry."
Qingzhi finally felt more at ease after receiving the guarantee.
At the same time, I also felt a little happy in my heart.
In fact, ever since they came to the southwest border and settled down, Qingzhi has been trying to get in touch with Mrs. Qin in Beijing to at least report that they are safe, but Qin Rushuang has been slow to make any move, and it is hard for her to urge her.
Now hearing what Qin Rushuang said, Qingzhi said quickly, "Yes, yes, it's time to tell Master Shen and Madam about our situation. They don't know how worried they should be!"
"Don't worry, mother may not be able to guess it, but brother will definitely be able to find out from the clues we left that we are not dead yet."
"Miss, aren't you afraid that the prince will find out?"
Qin Rushuang turned her head and looked away.
"I am just a dispensable existence to him. Do you think he will worry about my funeral and then find my traces? Moreover, we have been in the southwest for so long and no one is chasing me. He must be
Nothing found.”
When Xie Xun was mentioned, Qingzhi could clearly feel Qin Rushuang's mood weakening, so she stopped bringing the topic to Xie Xun.
"Then let's take a look at it for a while, young lady, and then let's go and have a rest, okay? You have to study the art of war with Taoist Lianqing during the day. You really shouldn't be so tired. You've just given birth not long ago. If you ask me, you should do it.
Three full months of confinement is enough!"
Qin Rushuang smiled, "How can I be so squeamish? Okay, okay, let's go and rest after reading this."
Qin Rushuang watched for a while, feeling really worried about the situation at the border. She wanted to write a letter immediately to communicate with Shen Xiaoyang about the border, but when she saw Qingzhi who had been supervising beside her, she reluctantly put down her pen.
She was worried about things and didn't get much rest all night. The first thing she did when she woke up the next day was a letter, telling her situation and concerns about the border, and she was going to send the letter to Shen Xiaoyang.
After writing the letter and giving Xie Xun to Mu Duo, Mu Duo repeatedly promised that he would ask a reliable person to deliver the letter so that she could stay in the village with peace of mind.
Qin Rushuang got the promise, put away her thoughts and went to find Taoist Lianqing.
At this time, it was not only Qin Rushuang who was concerned about the situation at the border, but also the fourth prince, Xie Yang.
In the Fourth Prince's Mansion.
Xie Yang called a group of his staff to discuss border issues.
"That annoying Xie Xun is gone. With him in the capital, it will be difficult for me to get involved in many things!"
An aide smiled and said, "That's true. With the Second Prince gone, you will have many more opportunities to show your face in front of His Majesty."
Emperor Qi was furious because he lost a young grandson first, and later he was worried about border affairs, and his health was not good anymore.
A few days ago, news came from the palace that Emperor Qi had caught wind and cold. It was obviously just a minor illness, but he had been lingering on his bed, and he has not recovered yet.
As he got older, he didn't want to believe anyone except the people around him, and he couldn't even listen to what Wan Bin said.
However, Xie Xun also sent his own people to garrison the palace, making the entire palace look like an iron bucket, watertight. Xie Yang tried to find a chance to show his face in front of Emperor Qi, but failed.
"I think my father is getting more and more confused!" Speaking of this matter, Xie Yang said angrily: "He only has Xie Xun in his eyes now! How can he see what other princes are doing!"
The staff hurriedly said: "Your Majesty! Be careful what you say!"
Xie Yang sneered: "What are you afraid of? Everyone in this room is a person whom I can trust. Please come up with me and give me an idea on how to warm my father's heart! I see that my father has become more interested in immortality since he got older.
I am also very interested in the art of martial arts. Sirs, if you know anyone who is an outsider, please recommend them to me!"
As he said this, one of his staff actually came forward and said that he knew a Taoist priest who was good at maintaining good health and knew some strange magic. He might be able to relieve Xie Yang's worries.
This is unreliable at first sight. How can there be any magic of immortality in this world? They are all lies. Anyone with any brains can understand the tricks in them.
However, Xie Yang doesn't care about Emperor Qi's body at all now. He only cares whether Emperor Qi values him or not!
Hearing what this aide said, he immediately asked him to introduce the person and find a way to bring him into the palace. If he got the favor of Emperor Qi, it would be a great help to them.
Several people discussed this matter for a while, and a staff member who looked gloomy and had a scar on his face suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the Sacred Heart is unpredictable. Your Majesty's love is limited, and you can only use your power to
The most important thing is to hold it in your own hands!"
Xie Yang glanced at him and said to the others, "I remembered that I had something to say to Mr. Liu, so you can leave first."
After everyone left, Xie Yang asked Mr. Liu just to sit down and poured a cup of tea for him himself.
"Everyone who doesn't matter is gone. Mr. Liu can talk to me about the border. What are your plans for the border?"
This Mr. Liu’s surname is Liu and his given name is Yue.
He was originally a low-class street gangster, but later he heard that he had some adventures after a narrow escape from death. Somehow he fell into Xie Yang's eyes and became one of Xie Yang's aides.
It's just that this person's heart is evil, his mind is full of crooked ideas, and his ideas are extremely sinister.
"In terms of border matters, from the villain's point of view, the most important thing is that the second prince cannot win any more battles."
Xie Yang knew what he meant, but he still hesitated a little and said, "But if Xie Xun doesn't win the battle, then Dayan will press forward step by step. If the city is broken..."
Liu Yue waved her hand, "Your Majesty, what you said is wrong. Daqi has a vast territory and a lot of land. In the future, these things will only come back to you when they are in your hands! Your Majesty will still be afraid of that little Big Yan."
No? Your enemy has always been the Second Prince!"
"That's the same reason...it's just a matter of this matter. I wonder if Mr. Liu has any specific plans?"
"It's easy to talk about! When it comes to leading troops to fight, the most important things are nothing more than two things, one is soldiers, and the other is food."
"King Huai is indeed powerful, and the soldiers he leads are not bad, but my lord... you have to know that a clever woman can't make a meal without rice! These hungry soldiers, no matter how powerful they are, are just ordinary people..."
"I heard that your majesty asked the next batch of grain and grass to be sent to the border with King Huai. Your majesty has good intentions, but whether this grain and grass can be delivered to the border is another matter. After all, the journey is long, and what changes will happen along the way?
But no one can say for sure..."
Xie Yang's eyes darkened: "I know what Mr. Liu said."
