Chapter 162 Overthinking (Part [-])
Qin Wubing and his party were not so easy to chase. The old monk refused to sit in the car because of excitement, but rode on the horse. Qin Wubing felt that the car was stuffy, so he also rode on the horse. Lin Huai and Guo Yi originally He didn't want to ride in a carriage, but when he saw Qin Wubing riding a horse, he was really elated and couldn't wait to get on the horse.

As a result, only the eldest princess was still in the car, and after walking for a while, the old monk yelled around the car of the eldest princess: "Yu'er, take care of your son-in-law, I want to take a step first, he Just don't let me! What's the point of riding so slowly?!"

The eldest princess thought about it, if she continues like this, she will have to walk all night tonight, trouble!

Anyway, the rain stopped, so Princess Eldest got out of the carriage and got on the horse.

How did Zhao Guang chase after him?
But he still persevered and rode to the outside of Jinling City in one go. Looking at the afterglow of the setting sun, he didn't know where the inspiration came from. He remembered and asked the old housekeeper: "Who was the person who shook me with a stick last night? I remember someone He is said to be the head of the eldest princess's bodyguard, who is that man who swung a stick at me?"

The old housekeeper was already exhausted, but he was extremely relieved in his heart. Who said his heir was an embroidered pillow?When he returns to the Duke's mansion, he will tell the Duke that the son is just not ready for use, but if he is really brave, he can stay on the horse for several hours!
"What about you!"

"Sir..."

"Well, you don't know at first glance! I heard you talked a lot at that time, why didn't you ask a question wisely?"

"Yes!"

"I'll see the Eldest Princess in a while. You should first ask who that person is. I don't like other men running around around her. It's enough to have a chief guard."

"Yes!"

"No, there seems to be another monk, that monk..."

"My lord, that one is the royal family!"

"Oh, then just follow! Others, you can help the Eldest Princess transfer away when the time comes, but that person, the one who wields the stick, must be kept for me! If you dare to do something to me, I will also Let him know how powerful Dingguo Mansion is!"

"Sir..."

"Where do you come up with so much nonsense, let's talk about it in the first city!"

……

Unfortunately, Zhao Guang thought too much.

When they arrived at the posthouse, Dexi received him with a smile, saying that the Eldest Princess went to catch up on sleep after working so hard all the way, and Prince Xiang was busy with matters on the river, discussing with several adults. I don't have time to see him for the time being, I just ask Shizi to settle down first, and see you later when you are free.

Dexi clearly told Zhao Guang that there were no spare rooms in the post house, so Zhao Guang had no choice but to order someone to find an inn closest to the post house, book it, and drive away all the residents.

Zhao Guang was afraid that he would not be able to see the eldest princess immediately, so he specially arranged for someone to stay at the post house. Once the eldest princess or Prince Xiang wanted to see him, it was better for someone to pass it on immediately.

Unfortunately, Zhao Guang thought too much again.

Prince Xiang was indeed busy, busy listening to Qin Wubing's work report, how could the Eldest Princess not be listening?

It's just that the old monk couldn't take it anymore, and Lin Huai and Guo Yi were too tired. The meal was useless, so the three went back to their rooms.

When Qin Wubing met Prince Xiang, the first thing he said was: "Have the money and people arrived safely?"

Prince Xiang smiled very kindly: "Here we are! I know that the troops have been dispatched, not bad! Let's eat first, and talk about other things slowly."

"He hasn't slept well for several nights, why can't he come back tomorrow?" The Eldest Princess pouted and asked.

Qin Wubing immediately said: "I won't sleep well if I don't finish talking about some things, and you are also tired, eat something and go to rest."

"No, I want to hear and see what things have to be said tonight."

Qin Wubing shook his head helplessly.

Prince Xiang first looked at the two of them in surprise, then immediately showed a gratified expression, and finally smiled wrinkled.

Prince Xiang received the news in advance, knowing that Qin Wubing and the others would definitely arrive at Jinling before dark, so he waited for a long time without eating, so he naturally knew the hard work of this trip, so when the three of them had dinner, they changed their usual eclipse and kept quiet According to the rules, while eating, he listened to Qin Wubing talking about his trip to the Caobang.

"...Huang Zongxing knew that there was a problem with Guantong, but it was only limited to the clan leader's dispute, or old grievances. He didn't expect that Guantong would have a connection with the Xichuan Palace. Do it, otherwise with Guan Tong's position in the gang, Huang Zongxing really won't be able to touch him."

"After seeing me, Huang Zongxing realized that things were not as simple as he thought. He came up with the idea of ​​borrowing my hand to get rid of Guantong, but he thought it was simple again. When we got to Caobang, those people made troubles one after another. There was a murder case, and they actually used the most secret channel of the Cao Gang to deliver news. How should I put it, Huang Zongxing didn’t tell me the truth before. In the end, he wanted to keep a little secret of the Cao Gang, so that he could be in the court. Save some face and bargaining capital in front of you."

"It's okay this time, what I said is what, the points that the prince explained before, he will definitely complete it this time."

After Qin Wubing finished speaking, Prince Xiang had almost finished his meal. He took the cup that Dexi handed over to him, rinsed his mouth, and asked, "Did the person who sent the news catch him?"

Qin Wubing took two bites sullenly, then shook his head and said, "I didn't get caught, and yesterday I left suddenly on purpose to give them a chance to report to Xichuan, let them know that there is nothing going on here, and let them think about it as soon as possible. Another way."

Prince Xiang laughed twice and said:

"It's just what I want! I'm still worried that you are too meticulous in your work. You always have to leave some work for the Cao Gang. There are people arranged by the court. How can you show them if there is less work! As for Xichuan, you That’s right, let them think of other ways.”

As soon as Lord Xiang finished speaking, he heard a noise outside, Lord Xiang frowned, and Dexi had already arrived at the door.

Qin Wubing ate silently, raising his eyes to look at the eldest princess from time to time, not caring about the sounds outside at all.

But after a while, he couldn't care less, because he heard the voice outside was Lin Huai.

"Didn't he go back to sleep?" Qin Wubing got up immediately, walked to the door with a mutter, saw Dexi shaking his head, and Lin Huai who was excited behind him.

"What about your sleepwalking?" Qin Wubing asked.

Lin Huai didn't pay attention to Qin Wubing at all, just passed him and ran towards the eldest princess, and walked over, asking, "Did you make that chair with wheels that Chuncao was sitting on?"

The eldest princess chewed slowly, and took the time to reply with two words: "Nonsense!"

Lin Huai scratched his head, as if he didn't know how to express, he just cupped his fists and said, "Thank you!"

The eldest princess glanced at Lin Huai and asked, "It's your turn to thank me?"

Qin Wubing immediately interrupted and asked Lin Huai, "Brother, do you want to eat before going to bed?"

Lin Huai froze for a moment before saying: "Chuncao is still outside, I'll push her back first, don't eat, I'm sleepy."

Lin Huai walked away a little frustrated, and his expression was very different from that when he entered the house, which made Qin Wubing's mood drop.
