Chapter 236 "Cut first and play later"

Qin Wan waited anxiously for another half a month.

Princess Ning Xi's reply arrived at the Northern Palace first.According to Ning Xi's judgment, Mrs. Jiaojun's personality is worldly and worldly, but she has no malice towards Yaoxing.

With Ning Xi's affirmation, Qin Wan heaved a sigh of relief.But even if Mrs. Jiaojun was proven to be reliable, Yaoxing's condition was really not good. She was awake at most two hours a day, and fell asleep most of the time.Qin Wan could clearly feel that her vitality was rapidly fading, as if she had lost her desire to live.

It was already winter in Chicheng, and the charcoal fire in Youlan Hall was smoldering. Qin Wan sat by the stove, staring at the sparks on the charcoal in a daze.

At this time, Liu Ying came to report: "Madam, Lie Xian is back."

When Qin Wan heard this, she immediately sat up straight, and her eyes became brighter: "Let her in quickly!"

Lie Xie walked into the house, dressed in dust and dust, obviously came back in a hurry, and she handed a note to Qin Wan: "Madam, according to my subordinates' investigation, the only Taoist temple in Kyushu that enshrines that god is located on the Taishan Mountain in Dongyi." Peak, named 'Taiping Temple'."

"Dongyi...Taiyue..." Qin Wan looked at the address on the note, and immediately formed a plan in his mind, "Liexiu, prepare the car and horses, we will set off for Dongyi immediately."

Lie Xie was very surprised: "Your Majesty, are you leaving now? Your Majesty..."

"I will write to him and tell him that I will personally escort Princess Yaoxing back to Dongyi," Qin Wan said, "By the way, I will inform that Mrs. Jiaojun to leave Hancheng and return to Dongyi immediately. Xingxing will meet her in Caozhou, then I will hand over Yaoxing to her, and you will accompany me to the Taiping Temple on Mount Tai."

"Yes, ma'am." Lie Xie received the order and immediately carried it out without asking the reason.

It took only half a day for the team to be ready.

Liuying was puzzled: "Mother, there is no need for you to send Princess Yaoxing in person. It is a long way to Dongyi, and the weather is also entering winter. What should I do if I get sick? Why do you not be able to return to Hancheng to see His Majesty for ten days and a half months. If it’s really not possible, let Lord Xiaobai and I send the princess back, we promise to send the princess back safely, you can rest assured.”

Qin Wan shook her head: "No, I have to go to Dongyi to see her off this time."

Liu Ying frowned, Qin Wan always said that she was the same, and it was difficult to change her mind under normal circumstances: "But your majesty, your majesty has not received the letter that you are going to Dongyi, so if you just cut it first and play later, your majesty will be angry again. .”

"I wanted to keep this matter from him at first, and it would have given him face to write a letter to inform him." Qin Wan changed into warm winter clothes and leather boots, and sighed, "If you think about it, you know he won't. I agree to go to Dongyi. If I don’t kill him first, then I definitely won’t be able to go. Maybe he will send the Beirong army to watch me, or take me back to Hancheng directly. gone."

"My lady, you know that His Majesty can't agree, but you still do it... Can you please stop, let's not do it?" Liuying said bitterly to Qin Wan.

"Oh, Liuying, don't worry about it, hurry up and check if our things are complete, let's hurry up." Qin Wan didn't change his mind, but urged Liuying to hurry up.

……

When Ning also received the news that Qin Wan had left the northern border palace for Dongyi in Beirong Palace, three days had passed.

If there were no delays on the road, Qin Wan's motorcade should have arrived in Yuzhou soon.

"She actually escorted Yaoxing back to Dongyi by herself!" Ning Yi looked at Qin Wan's few words explaining the situation, and was so angry that his head was about to smoke, "Yuan Ying, bring five thousand elite soldiers to chase her, we must Guarantee her safety on the way to Dongyi."

Yuan Ying asked: "Your Majesty, won't you bring your empress back?"

Ning Yi raised his forehead and frowned: "She's already on the way, if I force her back, she won't have a falling out with me... Hurry up and make sure she's safe and sound, and let her know what happened along the way The states and counties in the country have carefully arranged her board and lodging."

Seeing Yuan Ying stepping back under orders, Ning Yi felt her temples on both sides of her head twitching.

Bai Zixian persuaded: "Your Majesty always has her reasons for doing things, Your Majesty don't need to worry so much."

"She still can't learn to discuss everything with me!" The veins on Ning Yi's head tensed.

Bai Zixian smiled: "At least the empress has at least written a letter this time explaining where she is going and what she is going to do... This is already a great improvement."

Ning Yi: "..."

……

Yuan Ying's five thousand elite soldiers caught up with Qin Wan in Bianzhou, and then escorted her all the way to Dongming County, the border between Rong and Dongyi. However, because the Northern Rong army could not enter Dongyi, Yuan Ying and others They could only wait in Dongming County.

"Mother, please promise to return to Dongming immediately after sending Princess Yaoxing to Caozhou, and return to Hancheng with us!" Yuan Ying said to Qin Wan worriedly.

"Yeah, I promise, I will come back as soon as I enter Caozhou and settle down in Yaoxing." Qin Wan said firmly, "My lady, I never lie."

Yuan Ying looked at Qin Wan suspiciously, not knowing whether to believe it or not.

"Madam, why don't I accompany you to Caozhou?" Yuan Ying was still worried.

"Oh, it's okay. If Dongyi detains me and can't come back, then you can't save me. We can't both be detained, right? Dongyi is not that stupid and won't make trouble easily. Don't worry. " Qin Wan patted Yuan Ying on the shoulder and said.

"Why does it sound so reassuring?" Yuan Ying was helpless, but seeing Qin Wan's persistence, she could only agree: "Well, my subordinates will wait for your mother in Dongming County."

"Hmm, don't worry." Qin Wan said with a smile.

Mrs. Dongyi Jiaojun arrived in Caozhou ahead of schedule and was waiting for Qin Wan's convoy in front of the city gate.

Qin Wan handed Yaoxing to Mrs. Jiaojun, and whispered in her ear: "Princess Yaoxing's health is deteriorating, and now I'm going to the top of Mount Tai to find someone to save her. During this time, you take her to live." At Taiyue's feet, take good care of her!"

Although Mrs. Jiaojun didn't like Qin Wan, she could see that she really cared about Yaoxing, and her attitude towards Qin Wan was barely better.Hearing that she was going to find someone to save Yaoxing, he immediately nodded in agreement.

After making arrangements for Yaoxing, Qin Wan turned around and said to Liuying and Liyu, "You take the female doctor Baili back to Dongming and join Yuan Ying."

Liuying was shocked: "My lady?! What are you going to do? Didn't you promise Yuan Ying to return to Cold City as soon as she handed over Princess Yaoxing?"

"I lied to her." Qin Wan replied honestly, "I still have something to do in Dongyi, I just need Lie Xian and her thirteen guards to follow me, and you all go back."

"No! Mistress, if you lose you again, Your Majesty will kill me! This time, I will not let you run away!" Liu Ying stretched out her hands to stop Qin Wan, her face full of anger.

Carp followed Liuying's example and stood in front of Qin Wan.

Qin Wan stared and threatened: "You can't stop me, okay, get out of the way, don't let me knock you both out?"

"Mother, can you at least tell us where you are going?" Liuying knew that Qin Wan was not joking, so she could only ask with a bitter face.

Qin Wan thought for a while and shook her head: "I'm acting secretly this time, so I can't tell others. Okay, time is running out, I have to go. Lie Xian, let's go!"

Speaking of which, Qin Wan left Liuying and the others, got on the horse and left with some delicacies.

Liu Ying looked at Qin Wan's back and stomped her feet angrily, "How can I explain to His Majesty now..."

Carp looked angry and annoyed at Liuying, although he didn't understand why, he also became worried.

When they returned to Dongming, Yuan Ying saw that Qin Wan did not return as agreed, and was so angry that she wanted to bang her head against the wall.

Liuying: "We will never believe anything your mother says in the future."

Yuan Ying gritted her teeth and clenched her fists and said fiercely: "Liuying, before you said you wanted to lock up your empress with a chain, I thought you were exaggerating. Now I can't wait to put her in a cage, see Where can she go!"

Liu Ying patted Yuan Ying's shoulder: "I guess His Majesty is thinking the same as you now..."
