Chapter 497 Killing Three Birds with One Stone
Qin Qixuan then realized that Pei Xuanyi's most important goal was to eliminate the emperor's suspicion of the Qin family and himself.
Yes, if the emperor still trusted Anyueya completely, if one day they attacked General An, or if the emperor found out that they had secretly gone to the border to collude with General An to deal with Anyueya, what would the emperor think?
Would he think that it was not enough for the Qin family to collude with Helian Shi, and they also wanted to collude with General An, and add Fu Yan, and the Jinnan Palace behind Zhao Shuoer.
If they had all these four major forces, wouldn't the Qin family's rebelliousness be revealed?
This would be an unprovoked disaster.
Thinking of this, Qin Qixuan couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation on his back and a chill rising up. Pei Xuanyi was still thoughtful and actually used Zhao Zemo to achieve the effect of killing three birds with one stone.
First, it made the emperor believe that Anyueya did have some tricks in his hands, and made the emperor begin to suspect the An family.
Second, Zhao Zemo was transferred from an ordinary cell to the Sky Prison, so the supervision was more strict, and the probability of Anyueya taking action was smaller.
Third, because Zhao Zemo was controlled by Anyueya, the result was unexpectedly caused that what Anyuesheng did to Zhao Shuoer was now known to everyone, and Anyuesheng ended up being beheaded ten days later.
But Pei Xuanyi was perfectly hidden behind him. If Qin Qixuan hadn't come to inquire, he might not have known about this.
It was also from this time that Qin Qixuan truly realized that even though Pei Xuanyi was still young, he was a member of the royal family after all, and had been trained in the art of being an emperor since childhood.
"The day after tomorrow, the Second Young Master will set off for the border. Xixi and the Third Young Master Qin must be extremely careful. I have some things that prevent me from seeing them off, so I ask Brother Qixuan to help me."
Qin Qixuan nodded quickly.
"Of course, thank you, little grandson, for your concern."
Pei Xuanyi's expression paused, and he did not say anything else, but changed the subject.
"This time when we go to the border, Xixi and the Third Young Master, in addition to explaining the situation to General Tong'an, must also try their best to find a way to solve the parasites in His Majesty's body."
...
Ever since the second brother talked with Lin Qingye, the second brother has become refreshed. He told Qin Shu the good news when he returned, and Qin Shu was of course very happy, because she also liked Lin Qingye very much. Now that Qin Qixuan and the second brother have found a good home, she can also be relieved, but she has a worry in her heart.
"Should Qingye stay in the capital, or go back to the border with you?"
Qin Shu couldn't help but worry. After all, Lin Qingye is now in the capital to diagnose the emperor, and if Lin Qingye doesn't go back with the second brother at this time, it will inevitably be a little unsafe for Lin Qingye to be alone on the road.
The second brother smiled and said to Qin Shu.
"Don't worry, mother. Qingye told me that he and Xiaowu have discussed the emperor's illness. The only thing left is the Miaojiang area. Qingye has taught me everything he has learned here, so he can go to the border with me tomorrow without worry."
Qin Shu was relieved and looked at the second son with a smile.
"You really got a great deal. You must treat Qingye well after you go to the border and don't hurt his feelings easily."
The second son nodded repeatedly.
"Don't worry, mother, Qingye was something I begged for with great difficulty. Even if I was wronged, I would not let Qingye suffer a little."
Qin Shu nodded with relief. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Although the children have such a father, the children of the Qin family are all very loyal.
After the second son said so, Qin Shu didn't worry too much.
When the second brother left the capital, although on the surface only the second brother left, he actually took Lin Qingye, the third brother and Qin Xixi with him. Qin Shu was reluctant in her heart, but she also understood that everything should be based on the overall situation.
Qin Shu controlled her gaze and did not look at the third brother and Qin Xixi.
The third brother's figure could still be disguised as a soldier, but Qin Xixi obviously could not, so Qin Xixi pretended to be a child brought by the accompanying woman, so that there would be less suspicion.
From then on, several people left the capital and rushed to the border. The people under the second brother were not vegetarians either. When they came back to report, they said that someone was obviously keeping an eye on the whereabouts of the army.
Although he didn't know who it was, the second brother guessed that it should be someone from the An family.
Lao San and Qin Xixi did not act rashly at first, but followed the army to the west.
It was not until the people who were secretly following them relaxed their vigilance that Lao San and Qin Xixi left here under the cover of the death squads given by Pei Xuanyi, and quickly headed for the camp where General An was stationed.
Since the target could not be too big to avoid being discovered by others, Lao San and Qin Xixi only brought gold beads and silver treasures this time, and the death squads hid behind them.
The two brought a lot of treasures, and with the cover of the death squads, they were not afraid of being robbed by passing bandits.
After about a month of bumpy ride, they hurried and finally came to the east side of the ridge.
Pei Xuanyi was right, the climate on the east side of the ridge was indeed dry. Qin Xixi had a nosebleed on the first day she arrived.
At this time, the third brother looked at Qin Xixi raising her right arm and standing there stubbornly, still a little confused.
"Xixi, your nose is bleeding, why are you raising your arm?"
Qin Xixi looked at him with a sad look.
"Don't worry, I have a way."
The third brother choked when he heard it.
Although they have come to Lingdong, there is still one thing to plan.
After all, they have come here incognito, so they can't continue to use the identity of the young master of the Qin Mansion or rely on Pei Xuanyi's help to meet General An. How should they meet General An now as civilians?
The third brother frowned.
But he saw Qin Xixi put down her hand at some point.
Her face was covered in blood and red, which made people frown, thinking that she had suffered some inhuman abuse.
This scene frightened Lao San so much that he hurriedly looked for a handkerchief everywhere, but he couldn't find it.
Qin Xixi didn't feel Lao San's panic, and smiled, blinking her big eyes and looking at him.
Just when Lao San was searching hurriedly, he heard a scolding from behind. A figure came forward and took Lao San down directly.
Because Lao San had told Pei Xuanyi's assassins before that unless they encountered fatal danger, they should not come out to avoid exposing their identities.
The third child had never learned any martial arts since childhood, and now he was captured by the mysterious man, and he had no power to fight back.
"You, who are you? What do you want to do?" The third child looked at the man and cried out in pain.
The mysterious man snorted coldly and held the third child tighter.
"How dare you ask me what I'm doing? Where did this little girl come from? Why did you abuse her like this? Explain clearly!"
