"Your Majesty, why is this?"

Old General Xiao was a little overwhelmed. Why did the emperor suddenly become so, uh, abnormal?

"Old General, who will protect the capital when you leave?"

"Since the old general left, I have been unable to sleep or eat well!"

this......

Is he really that important? Why didn't he feel that? General Xiao began to doubt himself.

"If it weren't for the old general guarding the city gate last time, I'm afraid..."

"If this happens again, the capital will be in trouble..."

Ah, bah, bah, bah, oh my God, I didn’t say anything just now, just pretend you didn’t hear anything!

General Xiao couldn't help but think seriously. On one side was his granddaughter, and on the other side was his duty. He shouldn't have hesitated, but...

That's it.

"Your Majesty is right. I was confused and confused the affairs of state with the love between my children."

General Xiao leaned forward and apologized, as if he had really done something wrong.

"There is no need to do this, old general. Please stand up quickly."

The emperor felt a little guilty.

Although there were some twists and turns, the matter was finally resolved.

The emperor kindly said a few words to comfort him and then let him leave.

It was not until dinner time that General Xiao returned to the General's Mansion. "Grandfather, you are finally back. Let's eat quickly."

"Old man, what's wrong with you?"

Madam Xiao was very worried. After all, her face was too ugly. Feng Qi knew it very well and felt very guilty at the same time.

"Hey, let's eat first."

General Xiao looked at his granddaughter and didn't know how to start. He had previously disagreed with her going to Nanchu, but now he had to take the initiative to ask her to go to Nanchu.

What is this thing called?

The three of them finished their dinner, each with their own thoughts.

"Qier, Grandfather has something to tell you."

"Grandfather, just tell me if you have anything to say." Feng Qi was very well-behaved, and looked like a good child who would listen to whatever you said.

"Get ready and go to Nanchu in the next two days."

General Xiao's heart and eyes were filled with reluctance.

"This, Grandfather, you don't agree with it? Is there something wrong?"

Feng Qi was very shocked. Although he had known it for a long time, he still had to show it.

Originally, General Xiao was still a little skeptical as to whether it had anything to do with her, but when he saw her shocked look, he finally dispelled that little bit of doubt in his heart.

"Alas, the emperor said that Nanchu might be planning to send troops."

General Xiao was so worried that he kept sighing.

"Old man, whether Nanchu sends out troops or not has anything to do with Qi'er?"

Old Madam Xiao was also a little confused.

"I don't know what the emperor is thinking. He insisted that Qi'er could settle the matter and let Qi'er go to Nanchu. I said I wanted to go with her, but the emperor disagreed!"

Feng Qi was shocked when she heard this. Fortunately, the emperor persuaded him to stop, otherwise she would have to go and have his brain checked.

"Grandfather, please don't be angry. If that's the case, I'll go there."

"Don't worry, nothing will happen."

Feng Qi could only step forward to comfort him and make repeated assurances, and only then did General Xiao give up.

......

Early the next morning, Feng Qi started packing her things. She was going to set off the next day, and the emperor had already prepared the accompanying team.

"Miss, Miss~"

Biyun ran in hurriedly, with an angry look on her face.

"Biyun, what's wrong with you?"

Feng Qi was a little curious. She had never seen her so angry before. What kind of thing could make her so angry?

Biyun hesitated for only a moment and then started talking quickly.

Feng Qi couldn't help but frown after hearing this.

At this time, Shen and Yan also heard the news and hurried to Qingyinyuan.

"Aunt, Second Aunt, why are you here?"

It looks like she must have heard about it. Actually, there is no need to tell her. Let them talk. She doesn't care!

Shen took one look at Biyun, who still had anger on her face, and knew that her niece must have known about it. It was rare for her to be so calm.

How important this is to a woman's reputation!

I don’t know which heartless person is talking nonsense outside. If she knew about this, she would tear his mouth apart.

"Qier, don't go out for the next two days."

Yan was very worried, afraid that she would be sad after hearing those rumors.

"Is Second Aunt worried about the rumors outside?"

"You know everything?" Yan was shocked. Who is such a gossiper? Why are they saying all these things?

Biyun: I am the one who is nagging.

"Don't worry, second aunt. These are not enough to hurt me." Feng Qi didn't take these things to heart at all. She knew who could say such things without having to think about it.

"We feel relieved if you think this way."

"But, second brother and sister-in-law, the most important thing for us now is to find out who is spreading rumors and slandering Qi'er!"

Shen felt that this matter must have spread from the General's Mansion.

As for who it is, we need to investigate carefully.

"Aunt, there's no need to investigate. Let's just leave it at that."

In this case, there is no need for her to be polite anymore. Some debts should be collected by oneself, that is more interesting.

"That won't work, we have to check!"

Yan felt that if she didn't catch the person, what if he started talking nonsense next time?

"Your second aunt is right. You don't have to worry about this matter. Just leave it to us."

Shen also disagreed with what she said. How could such a thing be tolerated!

Now Feng Qi didn't know how to persuade her. She couldn't say that she knew who was slandering her outside, right?

Forget it, let them be. But my second aunt will inevitably be sad again.

The two of them did not delay any longer and quickly took action.

Biyun was also a little anxious and would ask about the progress of the matter from time to time. Feng Qi, on the other hand, stayed in her room the whole time.

It seemed as if what was happening outside had nothing to do with her.

At this time, people in the capital were talking about the future Regent Princess after dinner.

Even for lunch, no one was in the mood to eat.

Feng Qi knew about it and could only shake his head helplessly, thinking that the result would come out soon.

In the front yard, all the servants of the general's mansion gathered together. They hated the chatterbox so much that they made them stand here and get scolded for a long time.

"Madam, Madam, I'm sure you two know what we servants are like. We would never do such a thing."

"Yes, ma'am, how could we possibly say that about a young lady!"

"That's right. Besides, we didn't see it with our own eyes, did we? We can't make it up with our brains!"

These people were extremely anxious and wanted to say that they were fools in order to clear themselves of suspicion.

"what did you just say?"

Yan was startled, as if something flashed by.
