After all, Ning Yujin underestimated Qi Yunqian's methods.
who is he?
His Royal Highness King Ying, the first king of the Eastern Qi Dynasty, is the regent who covers the sky with one hand. Externally, he is as powerful as Mo Jingxiao, the god of war in Daye. Internally, he can control life and death directly to the heavens. In just seven or eight years, he can make the original preparations come true.
As a result of being bullied, he has become a powerful country with four pillars. Who in the world dares to underestimate him?
What's more, he dares to go to another country's territory, get the first prize, be appointed to the Imperial Academy, serve the prince for a long time, and reach the political center. How much courage and courage does that require?
Even an old fox like Murong Xuan frowns when he mentions such a person. How could he not have arranged an escape route for himself?
"King Ding, Mr. Qi came here because of his reputation. He just wanted to see the God of War of Ye State, and he had no intention of provoking a war between the two countries. After all, it is winter now and resources are scarce. It is not easy to send troops to travel long distances.
There will be many people who can't bear the severe cold and die on the road. Besides, compared to Qi's small life, Prince Ding should be more worried about those in the palace."
Qi Yunqian's words were polite and beautiful, but the meaning of his words made people hate him.
Even before the martial arts tournament started, the higher-ups had already received news that there was something unusual going on in Dong Qi, and there were traces of a large number of troops being mobilized. Thinking about it now, Qi Yue might have anticipated the development of the situation and planned his retreat step by step.
Everything is arranged.
Moreover, when he mentioned those in the palace, apart from Empress Dowager Yin, he could not ignore the sick Emperor Chengguang, Empress Zhou, the Crown Prince, and Mo Jingxiao.
He really knows what to do when doing things.
Mo Jingxiao's narrow phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold light like a knife suddenly appeared.
Before he could speak, he saw a shadow guard falling to the ground quickly in mid-air and kneeling in front of Mo Jingxiao: "Sir, Mr. Murong is reporting urgently!"
Mo Jingxiao's eyes were deep and dark, and he stared at Qi Yunqian, then lowered his eyes and reached out to take the letter from the shadow guard.
After a few quick glances, his expression was calm, making it impossible to see any emotion, and it was impossible to guess whether the news from Murong Xuan was good or bad.
Qi Yunqian didn't seem to be in a hurry, he pursed his lips and raised the corners of his lips, his peach blossom eyes raised with a smile.
"Let's go!" Mo Jingxiao stretched out his hand and crushed the piece of paper in his hand into pieces, then took Ning Yujin and ran straight towards the palace.
Some of the remaining shadow guards guarded Qi Yunqian, and some brought Su Yuehua with them, quickly keeping up with Mo Jingxiao's speed.
Ning Yujin had too many questions in her heart, but she also knew that now was not the time to ask questions. But after walking a long way, she turned around and saw Qi Yunqian still standing there, as if he had been looking at them.

The endless stretches of houses and pavilions, the magnificent and mighty hall, the square high walls, the blue bricks and red tiles, the corner tiles and cornices, and the Han stone and jade masonry, this is the palace of Daye.
This is a center of power where even every corner is full of conspiracy. The beautifully carved jade railings that can be seen everywhere are cold and devoid of any human touch.
Ning Yujin did not want to enter the palace. Fortunately, Mo Jingxiao had no intention of taking her in now, so he asked her and Su Yuehua to wait at the entrance of the palace and returned to the palace with Murong Xuan.
Taking advantage of this gap, she stood in the corner and looked up at the high city wall at a 45-degree angle. Before she could express her feelings about how much it would cost to build such a huge building, Murong Xuan had already come out of the palace.
"Third Miss, you disappeared all of a sudden, you scared us to death!" Ning Yujin had already wiped off the makeup on her face, so Murong Xuan saw her as soon as she left the palace, and hurriedly said
When he got in front of her, he looked up and down with his eyes.
Ning Yujin smiled guiltily: "Mr. Murong is worried. I'm fine. I haven't lost a hair on my face. I'm in good spirits."
"It's okay, it's okay." Murong Xuan was obviously relieved. Although he was an old fox who usually said he was indifferent to emotions and anger, he still could not hide his worries.
Ning Yujin made a mistake this time, so her attitude towards admitting her mistake was very strong. No matter what Murong Xuan said, she just smiled.
Murong Xuan simply couldn't control her. He was still angry in his heart, but now looking at her pretty little face smiling like a flower at you, how could he still have any anger left?
"Okay, okay, if you have any questions, let's talk about it back to the palace. This is not a place for talking."
If they block the entrance to the palace in Daye Imperial City, they will be caught by the imperial guards and thrown into prison.
Ning Yujin stood there, yawning and stretching. Behind him was the city gate made of green bricks. The vermilion gate was nailed with golden rivets, which looked extremely noble.
In front of her was the dawn that pushed through the darkness. Although the golden light had no warmth, when it coated her body and face with gold, the feeling was still incomparable and wonderful.
A new day has finally come.
Ning Yujin didn't know what happened in Shengjing during the two days she left.
The city gates were closed, there were wanted notices all over the city for her, Mo Jingxiao suddenly regained his internal strength, Qi Yue was forced to reveal his identity... Although nothing happened, why did it feel like a lot of things had happened?
What about the people in Jingyang Palace, how about the prince, how about Di Changfeng...
There were so many questions in her mind that she didn't know which one to ask first.
When they returned to the palace, the sky was completely bright. When Ning Yujin arrived at Qiannuan Pavilion, she found that all the little girls were there, as if they had been up all night, waiting for her to come back.
It would be a lie to say that she was not moved. Ning Yujin couldn't help but her eyes were wet. She smiled and cursed as she walked inside: "Ya-ya, you little girls are so brave. My rightful master is not here, and you can't even think about it."
My territory has been taken over!"
After serving Ning Yujin for a long time, everyone knew that she had a bad temper. Xiangyue put a cloak on her at the door and smiled back: "Yes, if you don't come back, you won't have any status here.
"
"These little heartless ones." Ning Yujin glared at everyone, making everyone laugh.
After changing into a clean set of clothes in the house, she asked Xiangyue to arrange Su Yuehua's daily life. Ning Yujin sent someone to report to the Prime Minister's Mansion. After finishing these tasks, she hurried to Qinghui Hall.
Murong Xuan was dealing with the follow-up affairs of this incident in Qinghui Hall. When he saw Ning Yujin coming over, he immediately put down his work and stood up to make her a cup of hot tea himself.
Ning Yujin took a sip of hot tea and asked almost impatiently: "Mr. Murong, tell me quickly, what happened in the past two days?"
