Return of the Swallow

Pang Xiao leaned close to Lu Heng's ear and whispered: "I think that anyone who has the courage to go to another woman's boudoir to talk in the middle of the night should understand what I mean."

When Lu Heng heard this, his pupils shrank suddenly.

Pang Xiao actually knew?

How did he know? Was it Qin Yining who told him? Or maybe the maid next to Qin Yining secretly told Pang Xiao behind his back?

It would be fine if the maid told her secretly, but if Qin Yining said it herself, then it would be really hard for people to understand what she did.

When a woman encounters something like this, shouldn't she be careful to hide it? Does Qin Yining have such trust in Pang Xiao? Isn't she afraid that Pang Xiao cares?

Lu Heng didn't want to admit it at first, but then he thought about it. Since he dared to do it, there was nothing he couldn't do. Thinking of Qin Yining's infatuation with Pang Xiao and having paid a lot for Pang Xiao. If she was misunderstood by Pang Xiao because of this, maybe she would be sad. Lu Heng began to feel sorry for her again.

"Yes. I went. But I just went and said a few words. I stood at the door, separated by the two maids in her room, still standing about ten feet away from me. After speaking, I left. She has been unfailing to me from the beginning to the end, and has never done anything beyond her limits. If the prince has a grudge against her because of this, he will be betraying her love for you."

Even if he expected Pang Xiao to feel sorry for Qin Yining and make Qin Yining tired of Pang Xiao and leave him, he would have a greater chance.

But when things came to a close, what Lu Heng cared about most was Qin Yining's feelings. He still couldn't bear to make her sad.

When Pang Xiao heard Lu Heng speak like this, he felt really sick to death.

"Whether you live up to it or not, it is not you who have the final say as an outsider. I have heard your words clearly. I am naturally concerned about her affairs and do not need you to remind me. I would also like to remind you that in your family My daughter-in-law is a troublemaker, you'd better control her, don't let her come out like a mad dog and bite her red mouth and white teeth to accuse good people, otherwise I won't let you go easily."

Lu Heng clenched his teeth, his mandible stretched out into a clear outline.

At this moment, he felt like he was being slapped in the face. Pang Xiao actually said this to his face, leaving him no face at all!

He knew that in terms of etiquette, it was wrong for him to casually look for another woman late at night, but in the end he was more in love than etiquette, and in the end he left without doing anything extra.

Lu Heng smiled, "The lower official's housework will naturally be taken care of, so the prince doesn't need to worry about it. However, although I have true feelings for her, I have never been willing to force her to do anything. Emotionally, I have devoted myself to her." No less than anyone else, I can at least say that I am worthy of her, where is the prince?"

These words really hit Pang Xiao's heart.

Pang Xiao has never done anything to feel sorry for Qin Yining, but he has always troubled her! What outsiders don't know is that even Qin Yining's family was wiped out because of him, and even the death of the twins was caused by Pang Xiao.

Although this is not the case, Qin Yining did suffer a lot because of him. He was kidnapped, murdered, hunted, and murdered. Most of the time, Qin Yining relied on his own rescue to survive, and he was beyond his reach... …

Not to be outdone, Pang Xiao said: "Whether I can live with her or not is a private matter between me and her. Even if I cannot live with her, I will have a lifetime to slowly make up for it, but outsiders will never have this opportunity. and time."

The two men looked at each other with gritted teeth. They had the same woman in their hearts. They didn't even bother to discuss the dinner, but spared no effort to say words that could hurt each other.

Lu Heng was depressed, and Pang Xiao was also suppressing his anger. This was the first time that the two of them talked about this matter so openly. Although they didn't speak loudly, the aura around them was already quite tense.

When Lu Wenru answered outside the door, he couldn't help but soften his voice and be careful.

"Uncle, the banquet is almost ready."

The implication was to ask Lu Heng if he wanted to pick up Bian Ruohan. If he wanted to pick him up, he should do so as soon as possible.

Only then did Lu Heng come to his senses, thought for a moment and said, "Go and pick up Madam.

"

Pang Xiao also thought of welcoming the Tatar Khan.

Since Ke Dun asked Qin Yining to come by name, it would not be good if he blocked her. Besides, Pang Xiao didn't believe it. With him in charge, who else could make things difficult for Qin Yining.

So Pang Xiao also loudly ordered Huzi: "Go back and pick up the princess. It's wet and cold outside. Please ask the princess to wear more clothes."

"Yes." The tiger outside the door responded and rushed towards the palace.

When he met Qin Yining, he told everything he saw and heard today without reservation.

"Princess, I see that the atmosphere between the prince and Uncle Zhongyi is not right. The two seem to have had a big quarrel. You said that in front of the Tatar Khan, the prince will no longer argue with Uncle Zhongyi?" What if it is true? It doesn't look good to have internal strife in front of the Tatars.

Qin Yining had changed into a pair of tooth-white trousers with dark embroidered cloud patterns. She sat in front of the dowry and let Ji Yun and Bingtang do her hair and makeup. After hearing this, she smiled at Hu Zi who was waiting outside and said, "Don't worry, they won't It’s not a day of peace. The prince also knows that, let alone quarreling, even if there is a fight, they will fight behind someone’s back. "

Huzi couldn't help but joked when he heard the commotion in the room: "Isn't the princess worried that the prince will suffer a loss?"

"Uncle Lu is no match for the prince in terms of bickering and punching." Qin Yining chose a pair of pearl earrings.

Bingtang also smiled and said: "Your Majesty is very smart. If you really mean it, you can make people angry to death with just one mouth. You won't lose in an argument."

Ji Yun said: "Yes, Uncle Zhongyi is not stupid. He will not really fight against the prince. Isn't that asking for a beating?"

Huzi laughed outside.

Qin Yining raised her chin and asked Bingtang to help her put on the grape-wrapped collar button, "Huzi, is it the prince's order to ask me to attend the banquet today?"

Hearing this, Huzi said sternly: "Returning to the princess was not only ordered by the prince, but also requested by Tatar Ketun. The subordinates don't know exactly what was said, but Uncle Zhongyi came out to tell the prince after getting the news."

Qin Yining lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes like butterfly wings trembling slightly, "It seems that the person who came here is not good."

Bingtang asked worriedly, "What should we do?"

Qin Yining smiled and said: "It's okay. Even if Tatar Kotun and I quarrel, it is a woman's matter, and the peace between the two countries will not be affected by this."

Bingtang was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "The princess is really great, this slave is not worried about this."

Ji Yun also smiled and said: "That's right, the safety of the princess comes first, and state affairs are not something that we two girls care about."

Qin Yining patted their shoulders comfortingly and said with a smile: "Don't worry, even if Tatar Kotun has nothing to do to make trouble, I can't suffer the loss with the prince here. You all follow me."

"Yes." The two of them looked serious, followed Qin Yining out of the door, and went to the corridor to wait for her to put on the lotus-colored lotus pattern cloak.
