Lingling threw herself into Qi Yuning's arms and asked, "Where's Daddy?"
Qi Yuning said, "Your father is still resting. Don't cry. Lingling is the best."
Lingling gradually calmed down her crying in Qi Yuning's arms and said, "Mother, you can't leave Lingling."
Qi Yuning apologized, "I'm sorry, Lingling. Mother will always be with you from now on."
Lu Ze didn't come out of the house until almost quarter of an hour later. Qi Yuning saw that he had changed his clothes and had obviously taken another bath.
Lingling smiled sweetly at Lu Ze and said, "Daddy."
Lu Ze walked up to Qi Yuning, took Lingling from her arms and said, "Little crybaby."
Lingling snuggled up to Lu Ze's shoulder and said, "Daddy, Brother Ayou has a younger brother and sister. When will Lingling have a younger brother and sister?"
Lu Ze said, "If you stay less attached to your mother, you can have brothers and sisters. If you want brothers and sisters, you can't sleep with your mother at night."
Lingling hung her head and said, "Then Lingling doesn't want a brother or sister for now."
Qi Yuning chuckled, patted Lingling's head and said, "Let's go, let's go find my brother to discuss important matters."
Lu Ze touched Lingling's head in his arms, feeling helpless about her.
Qi Yu'an saw Lu Ze coming and said, "I've been waiting for you to come. It's a pity that you only came now."
Lu Ze said, "I'm a little tired from the journey, so I rested a little longer. I hope Brother Qi Wang will forgive me."
Qi Yu'an handed a letter to Qi Yuning and Lu Ze and said, "Princes Liao and Ning have already rebelled. The Qin army has split into two groups to subdue them. Princes Shou and Xu are both under house arrest in their respective palaces. However, Prince Jin is actually willing to provide troops, horses, and food to the Qin family. I wonder what Prince Jin is thinking. If Zhao Chong and the Qin family really seize power, won't they be the first to kill him?"
Qi Yuning said, "I left Shuangjiang with Prince Jin. We need an insider in Shengjing City. Prince Jin left Shuangjiang behind not because he really wanted to submit to Zhao Chong, but because he was assessing the situation."
Qi Yu'an said, "I plan to wait until the Dragon Boat Festival is over, then raise an army and fight under the pretext of suppressing rebellion and punishing treason, all the way to Shengjing City! As for where our soldiers go, whether the imperial court troops stop us or not, we must be prepared to fight."
Lu Ze said, "The Qin family holds immense military power, and Your Majesty is now their puppet. I'm afraid the journey will be difficult. We need to carefully plan how to attack the city and deploy the troops."
Qi Yu'an said, "Zhong Ming of the Zhong family and the twin brothers of the Zhu family are both rising stars in the army. I think we should make good use of the three of them this time. The Qi family army also needs young people to take up the responsibility."
Qi Yuning nodded and said, "Zhong Ming can be put to good use. I even met him in the Taoist temple today."
Qi Yu'an said, "He must have gone to the Taoist temple to seek a marriage partner. At his age, if he is to take on the responsibility, we have to arrange a marriage for him first, otherwise Aunt Zhong will have a lot of nagging."
