Mrs. Xue realized that someone was looking at her. She looked around and saw a man dressed as a Taoist priest.

This person has a gentle and humble temperament.

Mrs. Xue still thought that he was the owner of this family, she couldn't help but nodded slightly and asked: "Has the matter been discussed?"

Then why can't we see Qingyin? Mrs. Xue muttered secretly.

Ning Que's eyes wandered around the woman's bun twice, then he bowed respectfully and said, "I wonder what Madam is referring to?"

Mrs. Xue looked at him doubtfully and realized that she might have misunderstood.

She moved her lips but didn't wait to say anything.

"Grandma." Xue Qingyin quickly walked into the garden, "Grandma, I've been waiting for a long time."

Mrs. Xue naturally turned sideways, met her daughter, and said with a smile: "It didn't take a while, so it's not a long wait. This host is very good at playing with rockeries and water. I looked here for a while and felt relaxed and happy. I couldn't help but I marvel at its sophistication.”

When Ning Que saw her smile, he suddenly felt that her whole face came alive. The light lines at the corners of her eyes did not show signs of age, but added a bit of charm.

It turns out that not only was she married, but she also had children.

This thought flashed through Ning Que's mind quickly.

Xue Qingyin said crisply in this room: "If Aniang likes this kind of scenery, I can ask my uncle to decorate it in the house in the future."

Mrs. Xue shook her head: "Why bother?"

However, after just a few words, Ning Que discovered something unusual.

Why did you ask your uncle to arrange it? Instead of asking your father to arrange it? It can be seen that now you are living in your natal family, and you will stay there for a long time.

Married women rarely go back to live with their parents. Even if their parents are seriously ill, it is their brothers at home who should take care of them.

Unless... you have reconciled with your husband's family.

On the other side, Mrs. Xue nodded politely to Ning Que, which was regarded as saying hello. Then she and Xue Qingyin went out to the garden together.

Ning Que listened to their low voices and watched them go away.

Until the servant called out again: "Ning Gong?"

Ning Que asked: "Is that the new guest who just came to the house?"

The servant nodded: "It should be." He had been serving Ning Que and didn't know much about other things.

Ning Que then asked the servant of the Lin family who was accompanying Mrs. Xue: "Do you know whose female family member that is?"

The man shook his head and said: "I never mentioned it. I only know that... maybe it has something to do with the East Palace."

"East Palace?"

Ever since the prince became seriously ill, the East Palace has no sense of presence.

The late empress's natal family was almost dead, and the Crown Princess's natal family was also far away in Huainan Road. Ning Que really didn't have a clue for a while.

"Where is your master?" Ning Que turned to ask.

"Now that we have finished discussing the matter, we should go back to see you, Mr. Ning."

Ning Que smiled and said: "It's an unexpected mistake. Let's go and go back to find your master."

Ning Que finally met Mr. Lin in the study.

Only half an hour later, Mr. Lin seemed to be a different person. His eyes were bloodshot, the bags under his eyes were droopy, and he looked haggard.

Ning Que thought that he still had something to ask others, so he asked with concern: "But what difficulties have you encountered?"

Mr. Lin opened his mouth and closed it again.

I thought the less people knew about this, the better.

After all, it was the prince who committed such evil deeds, the emperor's son. Once things got serious and the prince's reputation was tarnished, wouldn't the emperor's face also be tarnished?

This is the disadvantage of being married to the royal family. If something goes wrong, everyone will be punished fifty times.

Mr. Lin suppressed his complicated thoughts and could only make up a lie smoothly: "Ning Gong doesn't know, I have a good relationship with the Xiao family of Huainan. I just heard that the prince vomited blood again two days ago, and I couldn't help but worry. If the prince His death may cause chaos, and the Xiao family's daughter's situation will become difficult."

This is half true and half false, even if it is spread to others, there is no way to fault it.

Ning Que frowned and said, "The prince's illness has indeed been delayed for too long. Is there no one in the palace who can diagnose and treat it?"

Mr. Lin sighed: "We are far outside the palace, how can we know what is going on inside the palace?"

This is true.

Mr. Lin was in tears again.

Ning Que changed his tone and asked the real question: "Are the people from the East Palace who came to deliver the message today?"

Mr. Lin immediately became defensive and said vaguely: "Yes."

Ning is indeed a man of integrity.

But Mr. Lin suddenly remembered that his teacher was Xu Qin.

Xu Qin is the grandfather of Concubine Wan.

No matter what, in the eyes of outsiders, Ning is indeed on the same boat as the Xu family and belongs to the faction of the King of Wei.

If the prince could be pulled off his horse by the help of King Wei, it would be a good thing.

But I'm afraid that if they use the Crown Princess as a raft, they may not necessarily care about the Crown Princess's life and death. In fact, maybe...if the Crown Princess dies, for them, they can seek greater benefits.

Because that would cause the Huainan Xiao family to completely fall out with the prince, leaving no room for change.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through Mr. Lin's mind.

In the end, he chose not to say more to Ning Que.

Ning was indeed disappointed, but it was really difficult to ask further questions, and he saw that Mr. Lin looked like he was not in his thoughts.

He said goodbye: "I will play chess with you another day."

Mr. Lin responded repeatedly, holding back the annoyance in his chest, stood up and respectfully sent Ning Que out.

Rather, he cannot be offended.

If the method of King Xuan's concubine doesn't work...then the only choice is to boldly take the more correct path!

Huainan is still too far away... Mr. Lin sighed heavily in his heart.

Xue Qingyin didn't know what was happening here, so she sent Mrs. Xue directly back to Xu's house.

When Xu Qi heard that his sister was back, he ran quickly: "Sister, I miss my brother so much!"

When I got outside the door, I saw Xue Qingyin actually coming, and she was even more excited: "Qingyin, I miss my uncle so much!"

No words have been changed.

Although Xu Qi's words are cliché, his excitement is sincere.

He said: "Qingyin, you don't know that since you left, Duke Zhao's mansion has sent people to visit your cousin and the others from time to time to play with them. That's just to play with the young master!"

Aunt Gui stood aside and stammered: "Thank you Qingyin."

Xue Qingyin didn't say anything. She took two steps inside and saw He Songning's figure.

He Songning also looked over at her.

Xue Qingyin was surprised. Nong Xia had just left. Why was He Songning already waiting at Xu's house?

"I guessed that you would take your mother back to the Xu family." He Songning walked forward.

Xue Qingyin understood. Oh, it turned out that he came specially to wait for her.

"You are not afraid of father at all now." He Songning's words were affirmative.

Xue Qingyin looked at Xu Qi and his wife: "It seems that uncle is a little more scared than me."

Xu Qi's mood was touched, and she smiled and said: "Although uncle is afraid, he still knows how to listen to you."

He Songning raised his eyebrows and said in a low tone: "I don't know when, but even my grandfather's family has started to listen to you. Qingyin, you are really very capable."

Mrs. Xue felt that the tone was a bit strange and was about to frown and speak.

But Xue Qingyin smiled and said: "It's still far worse than big brother. Big brother, I have something to ask you to help me."

He Songning: "..."

He didn't expect Xue Qingyin to climb up the pole so quickly.

Xue Qingyin stepped forward, pulled He Songning's sleeve and walked aside: "Come on, brother, listen to me."

Xu Qi breathed a sigh of relief: "The relationship between their brother and sister is still good."

Mrs. Xue frowned and said: "I originally thought that Aning was smart and capable, and he had a calm mind. If I am gone in the future, he will be able to take care of his sister. Now it seems..."

Xu Qi was surprised: "What? Now Aning has become stupid?"

Mrs. Xue rolled her eyes at him: "Why has she become stupid? It's because I think his sister is so smart. An Ning... An Ning... always seems a little ruthless."

Xu Qi advised: "How many men are ruthless? They must treat me differently."

Mrs.
