Return of the Swallow

When the queen heard this, she shook her head helplessly. Didn't she know her own worth?

"In short, what happened today is all thanks to you. (Online Passion Video 94se.tv) Don't worry, I will make a good plan for this matter and then make it clear to the Holy One, so that the Holy One will not misunderstand the prince."

"Thank you, Queen, for your consideration." Qin Yining smiled and knelt down.

The Queen smiled and shook her head. Thinking of the Queen Mother's face today, she couldn't help but shed tears again.

Seeing the queen like this, Qin Yining felt both pitiful and helpless. It seems that it is not easy for the queen to secure the first position in the harem.

Today's observation shows that the Queen is actually a person who has nothing to do with the world. She is not good at using her brain and is too lazy to argue with others. Unexpectedly, Li Qitian has been practicing for more than six years, and the queen has not yet adapted to life in the harem.

Qin Yi returned to Kunning Palace and sat with the queen for a while before leaving the palace and returning home.

Her daily life is now very fixed. She comes to the palace on a regular basis to learn the rules, then returns to her home, has dinner with her family, and then handles the matters at hand, before going to the palace the next day.

Shopkeeper Zhong Da also returned to the capital a few days ago and was dealing with business matters. When they encountered difficult matters, the two of them could not meet with their superiors to discuss them, so most of the time they could only send letters or have people deliver messages.

Such a busy life repeated itself, and in the blink of an eye, the honor guard for Princess Tana of Tatar's entry into Beijing had arrived outside the city.

Qin Yining was finally relieved. Her days of learning the rules in the palace were finally over.

Honglu Temple has already made regulations for the Tatar Princess's visit to Beijing. The purpose of this event was not to welcome Princess Tana, but to demonstrate the etiquette and spirit of the Great Zhou in front of the Tatars. Therefore, all ceremonies followed ancient rituals in order to show the profound heritage of the Zhou Dynasty. From Qin Yining's understanding, including Qin Yining, the welcoming ambassador, they were all to shame the Tatars.

The winner is the king, the loser is the bandit. The Tatars have been fighting for many years, but they were finally defeated by Ji Zeyu. If Zhou had such an opportunity to be proud, how could he not take full advantage of it?

Qin Yining had no objection to this move. After all, she had always had a bad impression of Tatars.

But Qin Huaiyuan thought more than her.

"Sister Yi, tomorrow is the official day. You must be cautious in your actions. You can't let the Holy One find fault, but you can't go too far. The Tatars will blame you for the death of Anazhi Khan. Enter. This Princess Tana was sent to get married, and she came with the hatred of her country and her family.

Carefully, she said something wrong about you in front of the Holy Father. "

Qin Yining nodded slowly, remembering Li Qitian's usual behavior, and said: "I understand. Don't worry, father, I will know how to do it."

No matter how beautiful Princess Tana is, once she is favored, blowing a few pillow words in front of Li Qitian is enough to make things difficult for the people below. If Li Qitian himself is dissatisfied with her again, won't there be many more temptations to target her?

Qin Yining has always been very cautious, because targeting her is targeting Pang Xiao, and Pang Xiao's current situation cannot allow any more details to be raised.

"Father, is there any news from the old capital? I corresponded with the prince, and he always reported good news but not bad news. My staff has not sent back any news for a while." Qin Yining was a little annoyed.

Qin Huaiyuan smiled understandingly, "Zhixi is afraid that you will worry. My father does have new news about the old capital."

Qin Yining's face heated up at Qin Huaiyuan's gentle teasing. He coughed and nodded: "Father, please speak."

Qin Huaiyuan said: "Actually, these things were planned by the Holy Emperor and could have been predicted a long time ago. Ever since Yuchi Xujie was named king, he has been resentful of Zhou who broke his promise and became fat. Naturally, he will not be friendly to Zhixi."

Qin Yining nodded, frowning worriedly and said, "I also guessed this level."

"Yes. As far as I know, Yuchi Xujie and Yuchi Yan are very close now."

"Are they planning to join forces?"

"Yes. And rumors have spread in the old capital. Many people are promoting how good Nan Yan is, how wealthy the people live, how harsh the Great Zhou Dynasty is, how miserable the people live, and how corrupt the government is. All kinds of things.”

Qin Yining squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "It's no wonder that the Nanyan people would fight back. If I were tricked like that and fed a piece of cake that I didn't draw carefully at all, I would be angry too. "

"Yes, it's just the rumors of these people that have caused the situation in the old capital to become unstable again. The new prefect is an iron rooster who has nothing to lose. It is true that Zhixi has the Pingnan Army in his hands, but the food and salary problem still cannot be relied on by the government. , I can only think of a solution on my own. If there is no pay for a long time, I am afraid that the Pingnan Army will not be able to control it. "

Qin Yining sighed softly, and whispered to Qin Huaiyuan what he saw and heard in Jianchuan City, and also told Qin Huaiyuan about the relationship between the hidden family and the visible family.

"... After the Qiu family has experienced a change, they will definitely choose someone to assist them. Qiu Yuanqing will not choose Zhi Xi, so he can only choose someone else. Who else in the world can compare with Xi? Can you fight against Emperor Zhou? So I guess they might choose one between Ji Lan and Yuchi Yan."

Qin Huaiyuan leaned back in his chair relaxedly, his expression very calm, as if what Qin Yining told him was not surprising.

He lightly tapped the edge of the table with his index finger, thought for a moment and said, "I think this Qiu Yuanqing might choose King Zhennan."

Qin Yining also had some guesses in her mind, but she had the same idea as Qin Huaiyuan, which still made her laugh: "Why would father think it was him? After all, Ji Lan is much better and stronger than him, and now his military exploits are shining brightly. , his outstanding ability is even more amazing.”

Qin Huaiyuan said with a smile: "Don't you have already thought it through in your mind? Ji Lan's advantages are actually his shortcomings. He is too strong and too powerful for a person with a narrow vision and limited abilities. It is said that choosing Ji Lan and Zhi Xi is likely to result in backlash, but King Zhennan is much easier to handle.

"The King of Zhennan is soft-hearted, not a person who is good at making decisions, and has no talent in court affairs. The only person available to him is Gu Shixiong, but Gu Shixiong is old, how many more years can he help the King of Zhennan? Since Yi is the father, it seems that the Qiu family should choose the King of Zhennan who is easier to control."

Qin Yining asked with a smile: "Why is it that my father, Qiu Yuanqing, is such a narrow-minded person with limited abilities?"

"Do you even need to ask? He was able to kill his own father to seize power, and was discovered by others, causing a split in such a large family. His own power was cut in half, and the banner of justice was handed over to Qiu Fei. Shan, regardless of the quality of this kind of person, just look at his actions, isn't it because his vision is narrow and his ability is limited?"

Qin Yining was so amused that he laughed.

"Father values ​​​​such intelligence and understanding of problems thoroughly."

"You knew it a long time ago, and you still came to ask me." Qin Huaiyuan smiled.

"My daughter just wants to see if our father and I think alike."

Qin Huaiyuan couldn't help but smile more joyfully: "You are my daughter, so naturally we have the same thoughts."

Speaking of this, Qin Huaiyuan said sternly: "Seriously, when we get married tomorrow, you can just act according to the plan of Honglu Temple Minister. There is no need to stand out, just act conservatively. Anyway, you are just a weak woman, as long as you It’s no big deal, and no one can be blamed for it.”

"Yes, my daughter knows." Qin Yining stood up and bowed solemnly in response.

At midnight the next day, the Tatar bride-to-be team that had been stationed outside the city all night finally entered the capital under the grand welcome of Honglu Temple.

Qin Yining was wearing high-end makeup and her face was stunning. She was standing at the head of the wedding procession wearing a phoenix crown and harem. On both sides of the loess-paved street, behind the human wall formed by the Gyeonggi Guards, there were people with long necks and faces full of excitement. From here, Qin Yining just pretended that nothing happened and waited patiently with an indifferent expression.

Not long after, a palace attendant who was responsible for cooperating with Qin Yining to welcome the bride ran back from afar and whispered to Qin Yining: "The team is almost here."

Qin Yining nodded and gently raised his hand behind him.

In an instant, the ritual music played, and Qin Yining and Honglu Temple Minister walked forward one on the left and one on the right. In the cold wind, Qin Yining's embroidered cloak behind him expanded into a fan shape, and the colorful flags fluttering by the roadside made a roaring sound.

Not long after, Qin Yining saw a large number of carriages and horses approaching, guided by the chamberlain and the people on the roadside. Among them is the first carriage, with the door wide open. The Tatar princess Tana is wearing a bright red narrow-sleeved robe, a gold belt around her waist, a hat with colorful feathers on her head, tassels hanging down on her forehead, and two long black shiny hair. The braids make her look extra healthy.

Qin Yining had already seen Princess Tana clearly when he approached.

This is a tall and plump beauty with a slightly exotic ancestry, a high nose, and deep gray eyes.

Such women are not common in Dazhou. Qin Yining has already begun to guess Li Qitian's attitude towards this type of woman.

Qin Yining had a lot on her mind, but she didn't show anything on her face. She stepped forward according to the etiquette, met with the minister of Honglu Temple on the left and right, and read out the wedding documents according to the ancient etiquette.

This document was drafted by the Hanlin Academy. It expressed its welcome and promoted the great Zhou Dynasty's expectation for peace. At the same time, it also rebuked the Tatar barbarians for their evil deeds in the border areas for many years without using any curse words. Every word of this document was Tatar. The human heart is hard-wired to find anything wrong with a sentence.

Qin Yining blushed for the Tatar when he heard this.

However, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. Since the Tatars have been defeated, they can only bear the consequences.

By the time all the rituals were completed, Princess Tana's beautiful and exotic face had a scowl on her face, and her cheeks were as red as the red robe she was wearing.

Qin Yining smiled and said: "Princess Tana, please follow me into the palace."

Standing there, being stabbed in the heart by the people from Honglu Temple in front of the people, Princess Tana felt ashamed and wanted to escape quickly, but she also had to carry on her identity as a princess. It was really hard.

Now that I heard Qin Yining say this, I felt a little relieved.

She felt an inexplicable sense of crisis when she looked at Qin Yining's graceful figure that reflected the moonlight.

She spoke in a substandard Dazhou dialect, "Are you the emperor's concubine?"
