Song Qiyun saw everyone looking at him blankly and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Qin Zheng's voice coming from outside the door, and then Qin Zheng and Yan Bo walked in, dusty with their travels, followed by Xia Jiu and Hongye, who were also dusty with their travels.
When Shen Haolin, Shen Cha and others were preparing to return to Jiaping Pass, bad news came from the Qin family in the south. The Qin family was full of people and their buildings were empty overnight, with no one alive or dead.
Although Qin Zheng had no relationship with the Qin family for a long time, the news was still sent to Xijing and Qin Zheng's hands. Song Jue specially sent the news to Qin Zheng, asking him to go back and take a look.
Yan Bo was worried that Qin Zheng would have no one to help him when he returned, so he followed him. The two of them originally thought of leaving without guards, but Xue Ruitian and Jin Jing disagreed. Not only did they arrange for Shadow to follow and guard in secret, they also asked Xia Jiu and Hong Ye accompanied me throughout the whole process. The two elders and one child pretended to be the four grandsons and left Jiapingguan City for Jiangnan.
This is also the reason why Shen Haolin and Shen Cha have been back for so long and they are not in a hurry to go to Uncle Yan to greet their masters.
But they didn't expect that the four of them would come back so soon. Based on their distance, they would not be back until at least the end of next month.
"Master? Uncle Yan? Are you back? Why don't you let someone know in advance so that we can pick you up."
Shen Cha put down the bowl in his hand, stood up, and asked Qin Zheng and Yan Bo to come and sit down, but they refused.
"You guys sit down, let's just find a seat." Qin Zheng dragged Uncle Yan to sit on Xue Ruitian's seat. "Is there anything I can pick up? Didn't you just come back not long ago?" Uncle Yan glanced at Shen. Tea, "You don't look good, are you sick again?"
"Yes." Shen Cha admitted honestly. Seeing Qin Zheng and Uncle Yan's disapproving expressions, he touched his chin sheepishly, "But it's almost better now. You don't have to worry too much." She looked at Jin Miao Miao Yi raised his eyebrows, "If you don't believe me, just ask Miao Miao."
"It's indeed great." Jin Miaomiao nodded, "She will be alive and kicking after two more days. If you two come back later, she will be no different from before." She glanced at Qin Zheng, Uncle Yan looked at Xia Jiu and Hongye again, "Have you eaten yet?"
"Not yet." Xia Jiu shook his head. After giving gifts to everyone present, he sat directly next to Song Qiyun. "Aren't you just rushing on your way? Sister Miao Miao, what do you have to eat?"
"Just wait, we'll send someone over soon." Jin Miaomiao raised her chin towards Shadow standing at the door. When she saw Shadow leaving, she looked at Qin Zheng and Uncle Yan again, "Has everything been done?"
"What's done is not done at all." Hongye sat behind Xue Ruitian and sighed softly, "We were almost there when we received news from Governor Pei, saying that the Qin family members were back again. They It's not that he disappeared, but he went back to his hometown in the countryside to worship his ancestors. I apologize for the misunderstanding caused because I didn't say hello in advance. After the deputy commander received the news, he took us back home."
"It's okay to go back to your hometown to worship your ancestors, but you won't leave any servants at home?" Xue Ruitian lay on the table and looked at Qin Zheng, "This doesn't make sense, does it?"
"They have always been like this, so don't worry about it. It's just that this time it took a little longer, so there was a misunderstanding." Qin Zheng waved his hand, "Since the person came back unscathed, we don't have the need to ask for trouble. . On the other hand, what were you talking about just now?" He glanced at Song Qiyun, "I heard the prince's voice at the door, and it seemed that the tone was not right."
"We're talking about the Green Lotus Sect and the Empress Dowager."
After Shen Cha finished speaking, she pretended to glance at Hong Ye casually. Seeing the other person's flash of surprise, she reached out and pinched Shen Haolin.
"It's progressing very quickly. You have already found out about the Qinglian Sect." Qin Zheng patted Uncle Yan on the shoulder, "These kids are beyond our expectations."
"Master knows that the Qinglian Sect is behind this?"
"I'm not sure if they are causing trouble, but I'm sure they are involved." Qin Zheng thought for a while and looked at Uncle Yan, "Empress Dowager, do you understand?"
"If she hadn't been involved in our family, we wouldn't be in the state we are in now." Uncle Yan rolled his eyes, "A veritable old witch."
"Look!" Song Qiyun spread his hands, "I'm not the only one describing her like this, right?"
"It's so good, why did you mention her?"
"Xiaoyun just said that she is a gloomy old lady. We were just curious, and Master you are back."
"It is indeed very gloomy." Qin Zheng nodded and looked at Song Qiyun, "Your Majesty, please continue speaking, and we will also listen."
"Okay." Song Qiyun nodded, "Although she passed away when I was very young and I didn't have much contact with her, it was still a few years ago." He poked Xia Jiu with his arm, "Yes. Bar?"
"Well." Xia Jiu thought for a while, "I'm okay, I live outside the palace, unlike Xiaoyun, who lives inside the palace and has to say hello to her every day. That feeling..." He curled his lips in disgust, "It sucks."
"Brother Haolin, Brother Xiaotian, you and I have met this old lady once or twice, right? Think about it, when you saw her, did you feel a chill all over your body? The moment you walked into the door of her palace, did you have the urge to escape?"
Shen Haolin and Xue Ruitian glanced at each other. Song Qiyun was right. When the Empress Dowager was alive, her palace was like an ice cellar, with a gloomy and cold atmosphere all year round, which made people feel intimidated. .
"That's right, she's not popular at all. It doesn't look like a place where living people live." Xue Ruitian nodded, "When you said that, I suddenly remembered that every time I see her, it's like she's being targeted by a poisonous snake. It’s the same, very scary, very intimidating.”
"Right?" Song Qiyun laughed coldly, "Brother Haolin and Brother Xiaotian, like Xiao Jiu, don't go to the palace very often. Even if they do, they play with the emperor brother. Unlike me, the younger brother At that time, I stayed in the palace every day, unless she said that I didn't need to say hello, and I had to see her every day. The two brothers can't understand that feeling of despair."
"Although I can't feel it, I can still understand it and feel it." Shen Haolin thought for a while, "Both of your descriptions are correct. She is like a poisonous snake, waiting for the opportunity to move. When the prey relaxes, it takes the opportunity to bite Take a bite.”
"That's right." Song Qiyun pointed at himself, "I am the prey that was unfortunately bitten."
"Is there a story?" Jin Miaomiao looked at Song Qiyun curiously, "Is it convenient to tell you?"
"It's nothing inconvenient. I've ignored it. Anyway, the old lady has tormented herself, so it's just her own fault."
