Tonight, Qi Xingchen came to Hua Ying's room early. Hua Ying stepped forward and took his arm: "Xing Chen, it's so early."
"Yeah, I've been coming very late these days, so I kept you waiting for a long time." Qi Xingchen held Huaying's hand, and the smile on his face couldn't hide the tiredness in his eyes.
"You came so early today, uncharacteristically. You must have something to say to me." Hua Ying saw the clues at a glance.
"Haha, nothing can be hidden from your clever mind." Qi Xingchen smiled, "Yes, tomorrow I am going to inspect the northern border of the alliance. This trip may take a few days."
"Okay, it's okay for you to go on a trip. Don't forget to bring me a gift when you come back, and... don't go out and look dazzled." Hua Ying stood on tiptoes and took a bite of Qi Xingchen.
ears, "Otherwise I will show no mercy."
"Haha, with a princess like you, other women are just commonplace." Qi Xingchen said.
Qi Xingchen suddenly wanted to patrol the border, and he left in such a hurry. Hua Ying had a clue that there must be something important happening in the government!
"Are you going to the northern border?" Hua Ying confirmed.
"Yes, there was a disaster over there." Qi Xingchen's eyes flickered.
"Well, okay."
——————————
On the second day, Qi Xingchen left the imperial capital and led his cavalry to the northern border. There were not many people accompanying him.
Huaying ordered Yan Xi to send people to investigate what happened at the northern border and who were the generals stationed at the northern border. Huaying's secret operations were hidden from Qi Xingchen, so people from Prince Chen's Palace could not be used, so Yan
Xi personally trained some Huajianmen disciples who were sensible and sensible.
Soon Yan Xi received the news and reported back to Huaying that the northern border was close to a large river and there was indeed a flood, but it was only a minor disaster. Logically speaking, there was no need for Prince Chen to personally lead troops to inspect the area.
"The person stationed at the border is the Eighth Prince Qi Muchong." Yan Xi said. Of Qi Shuihan's seven younger brothers, only the Sixth Prince Qi Xingchen and the Eighth Prince Qi Muchong are still alive. The other brothers were all involved in the coup more than ten years ago.
After his death, the Eighth Prince Qi Muchong has been demoted to garrison at the border and has not returned to the imperial capital for more than ten years.
"So, Prince Chen's real purpose is probably to meet Qi Muchong?" Hua Ying frowned deeply in thought.
"Where's the Muchun people?" Hua Ying asked.
"I don't know. He went to the palace and met Qiaorou secretly, but he hasn't come back yet." Yan Xi said, "Isn't that kid just lingering around?"
"Wait a minute." Hua Ying waited for the news Mu Chun brought back.
In the evening, Muchun returned to Prince Chen's Mansion and immediately came to see Hua Ying: "Senior Sister Wangfei."
Huaying sat upright on the couch. Yan Xi went to close the door and said softly: "Junior Brother Muchun, you are finally back. The princess and I have been waiting for you for a long time."
"Senior Sister Wangfei." Mu Chun bowed to the jacaranda with a smile.
"Okay, no need to be polite. Looking at your happy face, there must be good news." Hua Ying saw that Muchun was also tired, so she motioned for him to sit aside and asked Yan Xi to bring a cup of tea.
"Haha, senior sister, I will do my best to serve you."
"Yes, I remember it."
"Senior Sister Wangfei, do you know why King Qi favors Concubine Qi so quickly?"
Yan Xi couldn't stand Mu Chun being like this and said impatiently: "Looking at your tone, you know it. Don't play it off, just say it quickly!"
"Senior Sister Yanxi, can you be gentler?" Mu Chun automatically ignored Yanxi, looked at Huaying, and said, "I learned from Qiaorou that Concubine Qi looks very similar to Empress Zhou."
