Chapter 78 Returning to the Mansion

While Qin Xixi was still daydreaming, she suddenly felt the little grandson's footsteps stop.

She looked up and saw that they had already arrived at the Qin Mansion.

Outside the gate, Qin Qixuan walked back and forth anxiously, and looked in the direction of the palace from time to time.

Pei Xuanyi understood that it seemed that Xixi was taking a long time to come back, and Qin Qixuan was a little anxious.

Sure enough, Qin Qixuan's eyes lit up when he saw them.

He hurried forward to take Qin Xixi.

"Your Highness, please send Xixi back."

Pei Xuanyi smiled and said nothing.

Xixi also saw her elder brother who was waiting for her, and instantly forgot her worries.

[Is the elder brother waiting for Xixi? Xixi is so touched! 】

She giggled and threw herself into Qin Qixuan's arms.

Pei Xuanyi looked at this ungrateful little bastard helplessly.

I don't know who carried Xixi all the way back, but the little girl went into someone else's arms without any reluctance.

Pei Xuanyi sent Xixi home safely and wanted to leave directly.

When he turned around, he saw the third brother and Qin Qiting who had returned from school.

Pei Xuanyi's expression darkened and he stopped walking.

The originally excited third brother was also stunned when he saw the little royal grandson and saluted quickly.

Qin Qiting also recognized Pei Xuanyi, who was also doing disaster relief, and was a little surprised to see him appear outside the Qin Mansion.

The third brother thought that Qin Qiting had never seen the royal grandson, so he quickly pulled him to salute as well.

"This is the only grandson of the current emperor. You can just call him His Royal Highness."

The third brother introduced him in a low voice.

Qin Qiting certainly knew Pei Xuanyi's identity.

But there was something indescribably strange about Pei Xuanyi today.

Qin Qiting grew up by observing other people's expressions, and it was easy for him to catch that subtle feeling.

Pei Xuanyi was also looking Qin Qiting up and down at this time.

When he was in Liancheng, he had checked what happened after Qin Qiting went there.

And the results told by the servants were the same as what Qin Qiting said himself.

Pei Xuanyi was relieved to let Qin Qiting stay with Qin Xixi.

But if he feels that his life has improved now, he wants to betray the Qin family and betray Xixi...

Pei Xuanyi looked at him with cold eyes.

He would never allow this to happen.

Pei Xuanyi told the two of them not to be polite, and turned to leave.

Qin Qiting was bewildered, thinking that the murderous intent just now was just his illusion.

Little did he know that after Pei Xuanyi left the Qin Mansion, he began to order his subordinates to check Qin Qiting's past in detail, including how he came to Liancheng, whether his parents were alive, and where they were now.

Pei Xuanyi was worried, so he asked the secret guards to monitor Qin Qiting's whereabouts in private, to see who he had contacted, and whether there were any signs of contact with Zhou Fangyu.

After giving these instructions, Pei Xuanyi pondered for a moment, making sure that there was nothing missed, and then returned to the palace with peace of mind.

Qin Xixi also saw Qin Qiting at this time, and couldn't help but think of the previous dream.

Little Xixi frowned again.

Qin Qiting didn't seem to be different, and his eyes were still very gentle when he looked at her.

Could it be that the previous one was really just a nightmare? Little Xixi couldn't figure it out.

[Why did I dream that brother Qiting was in contact with Zhou Fangyu! ]

Little Xixi rolled in her brother's arms with some grievance.

Qin Qixuan heard this and seemed to be thinking about it.

The third child didn't take it seriously when he heard this.

Today, Qin Qiting has been studying with him in the school, going in and out together in the morning and evening.

Not to mention today, it has been like this for the past few days.

Qin Qiting would never have time to look for Zhou Fangyu. Xixi's dream was really strange.

[It is obvious that Brother Qi Ting is no longer Zhou Fangyu's bootlicker as in the original plot. And Brother Qi Ting has such a good relationship with us now, he must hate the Zhou family very much! ]

[Is it really just a nightmare? Or is this dream giving me some kind of omen...]

Or, in fact, Zhou Fangyu was not the Qin Qi Ting who was rescued in Liancheng, but in her dream?

It is not impossible...

Xiao Xixi tried hard to think about the things about Qin Qi Ting and Zhou Fangyu in the original book.

But she had a severe headache and really couldn't remember.

It seems that it is not the time for her to know.

Xiao Xixi sighed.

Although the third brother knew why Xiao Xixi sighed, he still felt that Xixi was too sensitive.

It was just a dream, why take it seriously?

He has always been open-minded. Although Qin Qiting has hit him hard these days, the third brother also feels that Qin Qiting has deep feelings for the Qin family.

There is no need to doubt him just because of Xixi's dream.

Thinking so, the third brother took Xixi from his eldest brother's arms.

"Don't frown, kid. Come on, your brothers will take you back to play!"

Hearing that the third brother was going to take her out to play, Xixi temporarily forgot her worries.

Every time the third brother said he would take her out to play, only the third brother thought he was playing!

Qin Xixi even felt that it was not the third brother who coaxed her every time, but she went to coax the third brother!

Little Xixi pouted, but the third brother didn't feel Xixi's mood, so he held her and ran to his yard.

Qin Qiting also hurried to catch up with them.

Seeing this, Qin Qixuan had to let them go.

He thought of what the servant had told him during the day, pondered for a moment, and then went to his mother's yard.

Qin Shu saw Qin Qixuan and asked him jokingly,

"Is Xixi back?"

Qin Qixuan nodded.

"She was taken away by the third child. She will probably come to eat after playing for a while."

He felt a little embarrassed when he saw his mother laughing happily.

He was just worried about his sister, why did his mother tease him like that?

Thinking of the business, Qin Qixuan straightened his expression again.

"Mother, after the Zhou family was driven out of the city, I asked someone to monitor their actions."

Qin Shu also put away her smile and listened to what Qin Qixuan wanted to say.

"There is still some money left from Zhou Yiyang's grain business. We didn't ask them to return the store money."

Qin Qixuan was a little annoyed.

They have all left the capital, so naturally they don't care about the reputation here in the capital. Without written evidence, it would be difficult to get them to pay back the money.

Zhou Yiyang got a bargain for nothing.

"They used the money to buy a fairly spacious yard, and the four of them lived there."

Qin Shu nodded.

This was pretty much what she thought.

Although Qin Shu said that she would let Zhou Yiyang pay the money, she knew in her heart that Zhou Yiyang would never give her the money.

In fact, she successfully kicked Zhou Yiyang away, and she also kept her six children, Qin Shu was already very satisfied. Qin

Qixuan didn't think so.

"Although they are now outside the capital, it will be dangerous to keep the Zhou family... Why don't we find someone to catch the Zhou family in one fell swoop and kill them all to prevent future troubles."

Qin Shu shook her head in disagreement.

"Qixuan, no matter what, Zhou Yiyang is still your blood father. And the emperor has already punished the Zhou family. If the Zhou family is wiped out now, it must be our Qin family who did it. In this case, doesn't it seem like you are dissatisfied with the severity of the emperor's punishment?"

"And you have now been promoted to the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice. Now you actually want to be involved in the murder case?"

Qin Shu was also a little angry and felt that her son was too impulsive.

Qin Qixuan felt that his mother was right and felt ashamed.

"My son has learned his lesson."

Qin Shu sighed.

"Since it has been severed, let's put aside the past grudges. If others don't offend me, I won't offend others. Only in this way can we live happily."
