Chapter 496 Untying the knot in the heart When

Lin Qingye heard this, her eyes flickered slightly. She looked up at Lao Er, with a hint of curiosity and expectation in her eyes. She waited for Lao Er to continue speaking and reveal the answer that had already settled in his heart.

"Qingye, since you left, I have been missing you all the time. The desire to see you and the impulse to be with you are not just because of gratitude. It was not until now that I realized that I can't leave you anymore..." Lao Er looked at Lin Qingye affectionately, his voice choking.

Hearing this, a tear flashed in Lin Qingye's eyes. Emotions surged like a tide at this moment, and she suddenly stepped forward and hugged Lao Er tightly.

"Since you miss me so much, why are you hesitating?" Lin Qingye's voice was trembling.

The second brother lowered his head, his voice low and full of helplessness.

"I'm going to the barracks soon. If you stay with me, you can only suffer in the remote border. I... I really can't bear you to give up your freedom because of me and waste your good medical skills..."

Lin Qingye couldn't help laughing when he heard it, but there was a bit of annoyance in his laughter.

"You are such a fool. If I thought the border was hard, why would I stay there for so long? How could I waste my medical skills at the border? In the barracks, treating the soldiers, I can also feel free and fulfilled."

The second brother didn't seem to expect Lin Qingye to say this. He was stunned for a while and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.

"You mean..."

Before the second brother finished speaking, Lin Qing hugged him tighter.

"Let's go back to the border together." Her voice was firm and gentle, like a warm current that melted all the concerns and hesitations in the second brother's heart.

...

At the same time, Qin Qixuan and Pei Xuanyi finally met.

Qin Qixuan saw Pei Xuanyi standing at the door from a distance, as if he had already expected his arrival. His calmness and composure made him admire him.

Pei Xuanyi stood quietly at the door, as if he knew he was coming to find him, with deep eyes, as if waiting for something. Qin Qixuan's heart moved. In the past few days, Pei Xuanyi's ability to "foresee the future" has made him accustomed to it. He knew that this little grandson of the emperor was no ordinary person.

Although he was extremely anxious, Qin Qixuan did not show it on his face.

He maintained proper etiquette and followed Pei Xuanyi into the reception hall. As soon as he sat down, he could not wait to ask.

"Little Royal Highness, since we are so familiar with each other, I will not be polite to you. How did you know that Zhao Zemo was going to cause trouble at my wedding banquet?"

Pei Xuanyi smiled slightly, revealing a hint of mystery in his eyes.

He did not intend to hide it from Qin Qixuan, but spoke slowly.

"Actually, I'm not very sure. I just made a rough guess based on some clues and intelligence. I didn't expect that Zhao Zemo was actually controlled by Anyueya. This is indeed a bit beyond my expectation."

Qin Qixuan heard this and secretly admired Pei Xuanyi's insight and judgment. His words were like a key, instantly opening the heavy fog in Qin Qixuan's heart. Pei Xuanyi's analytical ability and keen grasp of details made Qin Qixuan admire him even more.

Pei Xuanyi's words really shocked Qin Qixuan deeply. All his previous doubts about the whole thing seemed to be answered at this moment. If you think about it carefully, if Pei Xuanyi's speculation is true, then everything can be explained.

The reason why Zhao Zemo was rescued from prison so easily and Anyueya did not take any further action was that this was all because it was a carefully planned game.

Anyueya used her own means to control Zhao Zemo and rescued him without any signs. All this was to suddenly attack at Qin Qixuan's wedding banquet and catch them off guard.

Qin Qixuan only now understood how deep Anyueya's hatred for them was.

She was willing to waste Zhao Zemo as a chess piece to plot against Qin Qixuan. This determination and ruthlessness made Qin Qixuan feel cold.

But now, Zhao Zemo has been recaptured. Although the turmoil caused by him has subsided temporarily, the aftermath still makes people feel uneasy. The court has strengthened its vigilance because of this incident, especially in prisons.

The good news is that the control of Tianlao is much stricter than that of ordinary cells.

The high prison walls, strict guards, and complex management system make Tianlao like an airtight iron barrel. It is not easy for Anyueya to place people here and carry out any sabotage or rescue activities. This undoubtedly gave Qin Qixuan and others a chance to breathe.

He looked at Pei Xuanyi deeply.

Even though he already knew the truth, he still found it shocking that Pei Xuanyi was so bold and careful, and could see through everything. Especially the details like the palace guard sand, which are very easy to be overlooked, Pei Xuanyi was able to capture them, which shows how meticulous his mind is and how careful his observation is.

At this point, Qin Qixuan seemed to remember something, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes. He asked hurriedly.

"Even so, your majesty is busy with all kinds of affairs, but you can't completely forget about Zhao Zemo? Zhao Zemo should be in prison now, why didn't your majesty notice it?" He was full of confusion.

Pei Xuanyi smiled a little, and nodded slightly, as if he had anticipated Qin Qixuan's question.

"Yes, as the ruler of a country, the emperor would not forget that Zhao Zemo should be in prison."

He spoke slowly, his voice revealing a calmness and confidence, "But I didn't actually kidnap Zhao Zemo from prison. I explained my plan to the emperor in advance and got his tacit approval."

At this, Pei Xuanyi smiled, with a sly and calculating look in his eyes.

"As for Anyueya's matter," he continued, "the emperor's impression of her has faded. I also hinted to the emperor at the right time, making him more suspicious of Anyueya."

Plan?

Qin Qixuan was stunned again, as if he had not expected that the young grandson of the emperor could even come up with a plan.

"What plan? Is it for Anyueya and General An?"

Pei Xuanyi nodded slightly.

"That's right. The emperor's condition has been temporarily controlled by the fifth young master. He will not think Anyueya is perfect for the time being, nor will he have a preference for Anyueya. I want to use Zhao Zemo as bait to make the emperor believe my words, make him afraid of Anyueya's ability, and thus acquiesce to our actions."

You know, their next move is to attack General An.

Although it may not get to that point, there is always a chance of something happening...
