Chapter 505 Love
Chapter 505 Love
In the quiet night, all the lights are off, and only the places where people indulge in feasting and drinking can still hear the noisy sounds.
A horse passed through street after street. The man on the horse was tall and straight, handsome, and had a stern temperament. The woman in his arms was like a blooming rose, bright and beautiful.
There was bloodstains in Qin Huiyin's room, and several men had been there. He didn't want to leave her there.
Originally, Qin Huiyin said she would stay in the guest room. As soon as Song Ruize got her response, he didn't want to separate from her for a moment, so he coaxed her to follow him back to the Song residence overnight.
The two of them rode together. Although it wasn't their first time, it was the first time they had confirmed their relationship, and the feeling was different from before. Regardless of whether Song Ruize had other thoughts before, she didn't have any. Now, riding together again, even their body temperatures were slightly higher than before, and their breathing was restrained.
Qin Huiyin felt that Song Ruize's hand on her waist was very hot.
When they arrived at Song's house, Song Ruize carried her off the horse.
"Then I'll go back to my room." Qin Huiyin lifted the hair by her ear.
"Okay, see you tomorrow." Song Ruize touched her earlobe.
Qin Huiyin hurried into the room.
Bang! She slammed the door shut and patted her chest.
No, I can't breathe.
Song Ruize stood outside the door for a long time, and only left after the people inside went to bed.
The next morning, Qin Huiyin woke up and went out, and saw Song Ruize setting up dinner in the yard.
"Haven't you gone to Bingmasi yet?"
"It's still early."
"But..." Qin Huiyin sat opposite and said in a low voice, "The eldest princess was assassinated yesterday and she ordered you to find the murderer. Won't she cause trouble for you today?"
"I've already taken care of it. There won't be any trouble." Song Ruize said, "Let's have breakfast first."
The breakfast on the stone table was all her favorite.
Qin Huiyin looked at the man in front of her. He seemed to have dressed up specially today, and was more dazzling than usual.
Their relationship seemed to have changed, yet it also seemed to remain the same. They were still getting along the same way as before. Yesterday, when he'd walked her back to her room, he'd been as polite as usual. If there was any difference, it was his eyes, more lingering, like a tiny flame within them, that always made her feel uneasy.
"Brother Ze..." Zhou Jinyuan walked in. "The eldest princess invites you."
"Got it." Song Ruize glared at him.
Zhou Jinyuan touched the tip of his nose and said to Qin Huiyin, "Sister, I didn't mean to disturb you."
"This matter is quite tricky. It must be very difficult for you!"
"This little matter is nothing to our commander-in-chief." Zhou Jinyuan said, "It's just that the eldest princess is a difficult matter, so the commander-in-chief needs to deal with it personally."
"Go quickly!" Qin Huiyin said to Song Ruize, "I'll go directly to the Food City later."
After arriving at the Food City, Qin Huiyin was not in the mood to take care of the business in the store. Instead, she sent Song Yi to inquire about the follow-up of the eldest princess's assassination.
Song Yi brought back the news: "The assassin is currently being hanged on the city gate as a public display."
"What do the assassins look like? Are they dead?"
"Don't worry, young lady. It wasn't those people." Song Yi knew what happened last night. "There are seven bodies hanging on the city gate, all men, with ordinary looks. The city is talking about the assassination of the princess. The military searched all night and captured the assassin. The assassin fought to the death, but was eventually eliminated by the military."
"So that's how it is. No wonder my brother said it's been dealt with." Qin Huiyin said to herself, "This is a solution."
"Miss, don't worry about these things. Master Song will handle all the dangers and won't let you worry."
"Miss..." Zhilan walked in from outside. "President Rong is looking for you."
Qin Huiyin looked up and saw Rong Jingbo walking in with a serious expression.
"President Rong, what happened?"
Rong Jingbo placed a letter in front of her: "You will know when you read it."
Qin Huiyin frowned deeply when she finished reading the contents of the letter.
There's a problem with military supplies across the border.
It would be fine if there was only one problem occasionally, but there were so many problems.
"The one in the palace is furious. You should be prepared. I'm afraid you'll have to go to the palace."
"Enter the palace?" Qin Huiyin was surprised.
"Yes. But don't worry, I've already made arrangements at the palace, and there's still room for maneuver."
Now it depends on how to resolve this matter.
"Would you like to go to the border in person?" Rong Jingbo said.
"What good would it be for me to go to the border?"
"These military supplies were your idea, and you also created those weapons. If you go to the border in person, it might be helpful to the war situation there. The border has already started to become unrest, and I'm sure there will be fighting soon. Your brilliant ideas will be useful to the soldiers on the border."
"Let me think about it..." Qin Huiyin said.
Qin Huiyin returned to the Tang residence. After hearing from the servant that Tang Yichen had already returned home, she went to the study to look for him.
"Brother, can I come in?"
"Come in."
Qin Huiyin walked in and saw Tang Yichen drawing a blueprint, so she went over to take a look.
"Is this a new weapon?"
"Ah."
"Brother, President Rong came to see me today and said there was a problem with the military supplies at the border. He also said that someone in the palace might summon me. Do you think he will punish me?"
"I've heard about the situation at the border. I've also gone to the palace to see the emperor and taken the matter under my wing. I'll go to the border to take a look. You don't have to worry."
"You're going to the border? What are you, a weak scholar, doing there?"
"If I'm not going to the border, why would I let you, a little girl, go?" Tang Yichen glanced at her, "You've become bolder. Now you dare to look down on your elder brother for being a weak scholar."
"I'm worried about you."
"You just need to tell me in detail what's in the munitions factory, and I'll take care of the situation there."
"Why don't I go with you!" Qin Huiyin said, "I'm the one who's most familiar with those things."
"The barracks are full of men. What are you, a little girl, going to do? Even if you dare to go, I wouldn't dare take you with me." Tang Yichen said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. That's it."
"Bully." Qin Huiyin slammed the table and accused.
"I'm your brother, you have to listen to me." Tang Yichen raised his eyebrows.
"Is it really true that I can't go with you? I don't have to go to the military camp, I can just stop by the border and help you with some advice occasionally."
"No need." Tang Yichen said, "Behave yourself. If I find out you're running around, I'll lock you up."
"Brother, have those drawings you presented to the Emperor before been completed? They need to be shipped to the border for installation. You've never done this before, and if they're not installed properly, problems could easily arise. Let me go with you; I'll be of great use!"
"I don't think I've ever had dinner alone with your brother from the Song family. What do you think about me going to find him now?" Tang Yichen smiled.
"I listen to my eldest brother. Whatever he says is what I do." Qin Huiyin gave in unwillingly.
