She also looked into my eyes: "You said why."

“…”

I hesitated for a moment and immediately understood.

Because, I can't say it!

The Xishan Academy’s “detention” of the prince has made the relationship between Xichuan and Pei Yuanhao subtle. If these concubines were assassinated in Xichuan, then with Pei Yuanhao’s cautious personality, he would definitely not enter Xichuan easily!

I know very well that Pei Yuanhao needs Xichuan, and Qingchen, although I have not seen where he needs the imperial court yet, he once said that Xichuan is facing a major crisis, and everything he does is to solve this crisis and to maintain his career. Then, the easing attitude he had shown to the imperial court before was of course one of his methods.

In other words, he also needs the court in a certain aspect.

But if things just stay here, the cooperation we want to reach will completely break before it even begins.

I gasped.

It seems that Yang Jinqiao is still considering the overall situation. She is very clear about the significance of Pei Yuanhao's cooperation with Xichuan, so she did not make a big noise about this matter.

I said in a deep voice: "Thank you."

“…”

"Thank you for taking the overall situation into consideration--"

"You don't have to thank me," Yang Jinqiao interrupted me before I finished speaking. She raised her head and looked at me lightly: "I do take the overall situation into consideration, and I also have to look at what the overall situation is. I didn't yell, but it doesn't mean I will keep this matter secret."

“…”

"We will all be assassinated in Xichuan, where is the emperor?"

“…”

"I can't let the emperor be unprepared and enter Xichuan without knowing anything about these things. I can't see through what the situation is in Xichuan now and what the people in Xichuan are going to do. I will tell him everything that happened here and I won't hide it any."

“…”

"He will judge how to make decisions at that time."

“…”

This is understandable.

After all, she is Concubine Ning and Pei Yuanhao's woman, but she is not the other concubines in the harem who don't know the importance of the matter and only know how to compete and be jealous every day. She is Yang Jinqiao, and she knows very well what to do at this time.

It must be said that there is Chang Qing and her beside Pei Yuanhao, who is really like a gift from God!

I took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty and we are splitting the road in the imperial tomb. He said he would go to a place to deal with some things, but he didn't tell me where Qinghan and I were or what to deal with. We didn't ask. He just said that he would enter Xichuan and meet us. I think this is his must-pass place, and he should come here soon."

Yang Jinqiao said: "I will let someone pass the news first, and I, I will wait for the emperor here."

“…”

She looked at my frowning and said, "What you want to do during this period has nothing to do with me, but I think you know very well what you should do."

“…”

I was silent for a while and nodded gently.

After saying that, she didn't say anything again, and I looked at her face much better than before, and asked softly: "Do you still need some hot water? I'll let Yao Lao come here to take your pulse later?"

"No need, I'm used to it."

"But--"

"I have become a good doctor after a long illness. I know that I need to take care of stomach diseases, but now is not the time for me to take care of my illness."

She is still so strong in speaking and doing things, and is not inferior to the bearded man. I think those words of concern do not mean much to her, so I prepared to leave, but just turned around and took two steps, I stopped again and looked back at her: "Empress Ning."

She was originally looking down and thinking, but when she heard me calling her, she immediately raised her head: "Hmm?"

"You, do you think that this time, is Nishikawa really going to be an enemy of the emperor?"

“…”

She looked at me quietly for a while, thought about it again, and then said, "I knew very well what happened during the time you returned to Beijing. I knew you, Chabixing, and maybe you Xichuan people, have been promoting the peace talks between the court and Xichuan. But what we encountered this time really happened."

“…”

"Besides, Ye Yunshuang—" she said, her eyes chilling slightly: "There are quite a few chess pieces you put into the palace in Xichuan."

“…”

"In this case, it is difficult to win the trust of others and tell the truth."

[Net King] Short guy, come and bite me

“…”

My brows also frowned.

Ye Yunshuang's identity may be a bit surprising to them. Pei Yuanhao already knew it, but it was only downgraded to her level. I don't need to explain this to him anymore, but now things happen one by one, it is hard to guarantee what Pei Yuanhao will think in his heart.

But the most important thing is what the people in Xichuan are going to do!

Only then did I remembered and asked, "By the way, who was the one who assassinated you? Have you found out?"

Yang Jinqiao shook his head: "They came at night and were very familiar with the surrounding environment and were well-trained. Fortunately, I sent my subordinates to protect them around to resist the attacks of these people; but after they found that they could not succeed, they retreated very quickly without leaving any traces. I was even more afraid that this matter would be a big deal, so I did not continue to pursue them."

“…”

In other words, the headless case.

But the purpose of killing them is very clear!

Yang Jinqiao slowly stood up with the bed post, and one hand was still pressing on her stomach. I saw her shake twice and hurried to reach out to help her. She waved her hand and refused me, barely stood up straight, and slowly walked to the door.

After a while, the people finally settled down and the place finally became quieter.

It was getting late at this time, but because of the steep terrain of this mountain, the sun was not seen all year round. From a distance, the mountains were filled with milky white mist, which made the surrounding mountains disappear and could not be seen clearly.

Yang Jinqiao said slowly: "The fog in Xichuan is too heavy; the water in Xichuan is too deep."

“…”

"Yan Qingying. If you can't clear the fog in Xichuan, no one can figure out how deep the water here is."

“…”

"And the relationship between the emperor and Nishikawa will never be as good as you want."

“…”

She turned her head and looked at me: "You have to think of a solution."

I stood beside her and looked up at the misty mountains. Everything was hidden under the fog, with a faint outline like a tiger, with its teeth and claws, making people shudder.

If you can't clear the fog, who will know what kind of scenery is behind it?
