Qin Kou'er pondered for a moment and said, "This must be a huge profit, otherwise, given Tuotuo's personality, why would he invest so much in Hu Tianyong! It's just that we haven't thought of it yet!"
Lan Linxue ate a few bites, then realized she couldn't eat anymore. She put down her chopsticks, took Qin Kou'er's hand, and looked at her with concern, saying, "You need to be extra careful tonight! I won't be back today; there are still many things to deal with outside! These people have been purged like this, and they're bound to retaliate. The spies in the palace have all been removed; now it's just you and your aunt outside. Today, Uncle Qi heard about your situation and was overjoyed to learn you're from the Qin family. He kept saying that Heaven has eyes. He also praised you for bringing your aunt back. He said that with you here, he feels at ease about everything!"
Qin Kou'er smiled gently, took Lan Linxue's hand and said, "Isn't this all I should do? How could I let the Princess be taken away by someone! You go do your thing, don't worry, I'm here, it will definitely be safe!"
Lan Linxue nodded: "I've already arranged for quite a few people outside for you. Even if something happens, just hold on for a while and I'll be back!"
At this point, Lan Linxue hugged Qin Kou'er tightly and sighed, saying, "Kou'er, don't worry, as long as we get through these few days, we'll be even closer. Then, I'll never let you worry about these things again!"
Qin Kou'er gently stroked Lan Linxue's chest and whispered, "I've never been afraid when I'm with you!"
Lan Linxue smiled slightly and hugged her arm even tighter.
He couldn't tell Qin Kou'er that he was actually even more afraid.
After arranging some things in the afternoon, Lan Linxue left with her people.
Qin Kou'er was a little worried, so she pulled Shuanghua aside and gave her a few more instructions before letting Lan Linxue leave.
The capital was now in a state of panic; the once bustling scene was gone, and shops were closed everywhere, creating a desolate atmosphere.
Qin Kou'er instructed someone to inform Jun Yannuo that everyone in Qin Tiange should go underground and not make any moves in front of them. They should give the impression of a tense situation from the outside.
Jun Yannuo, of course, understood the importance of this moment. Without Qin Kou'er's orders, he secretly released all the people from Qin Tiange, making his headquarters as impenetrable as an iron gate.
Night finally fell, inevitably.
Qin Kou'er ordered the people in the Prince's mansion to extinguish all the candles and have them lie in hiding, observing from the shadows without making any big noise.
To protect Shu Lingxi's safety, she found a large suite and lived with Shu Lingxi in the inner and outer rooms.
Shu Lingxi lay in bed unable to sleep; she was a little nervous.
Although Lan Qingtian was a military commander, she had never brought such a display of force home before, but at this moment she felt cold sweat breaking out on her back.
Everyone is telling her not to be afraid, but she is more afraid than ever before.
Unable to fall asleep lying down, she carefully sat up, and Qu Ling'er glanced at her instantly.
She quickly made a shushing gesture, then carefully got out of bed, put on her shoes, and slowly walked to the door to look outside.
She knew Qin Kou'er was right next door, and if Kou'er wasn't asleep, she wanted to talk to her.
Qin Kou'er was indeed not asleep; she was standing quietly by the window, looking out.
Qu Feng'er, not far away, was quietly sitting in a chair, pretending to be asleep.
Qin Kou'er frowned as she looked at the quiet scene before her, where only the wind was passing by.
Tonight is the best time and the optimal opportunity to rescue Hu Tianyong. If we miss today, we may never have another chance. Therefore, this is destined to be an eventful night. But when exactly will these people make their move?
Qin Kou'er subconsciously stroked her belly, completely unaware of Shu Lingxi's surprised gaze behind the door.
Watching Qin Kou'er idly touching her belly, Shu Lingxi's heart began to stir.
Kerr's gesture really resembles that of pregnant women!
