The whole family was wiped out?The treacherous minister turned around and cooed at me

Chapter 19 He seems to be particularly concerned

Qin Shuangjiang's eyes slightly lowered, but he didn't ask anything, so he nodded and replied: "Yes, sir, please wait a moment, I will change my clothes and come back."

Seeing her nodding slightly, getting up and entering the inner room with Bai Kou, Zhuling silently withdrew her appraising gaze.

Soon, when Zhuling led Qin Shuangjiang to the study, the door of the study was open, but no sound could be heard. Standing outside the room, Zhuling stepped aside and only motioned for Qin Shuangjiang to enter.

Although she was vaguely aware of it, she didn't express herself. She only glanced at Zhuling's indifferent expression, but also unconsciously revealed a hint of displeasure. With a smile on her face and a slight nod, she held up her skirt and stepped into the study.

After walking through the entrance hall and entering the study room, Yan Xu'an was the only one sitting at the desk reading a book. When Qin Shuang came in, he did not raise his eyes to look at her. His eyes always fell on the book in his hand, but he did not turn it over for a long time. One page.

Qin Shuangjiang stepped forward cautiously and bowed slightly to greet him. Yan Xu'an did not raise his head and only said "Hmm" softly. Qin Shuangjiang raised his eyes to observe his face and found nothing unusual, so he walked to his side and poured a glass of wine. Tea.

Both of them were speechless. As soon as Qin Shuangjiang picked up the teapot and before the water was poured, there was another knock on the door outside the study. The teapot in her hand paused, and when she looked up, someone had entered the room.

It's Yu Hansheng.

She stood in the hall, nodded and said, "Sir."

Yan Xu'an put down the book in his hand and raised his eyes to look at the person below him: "Did Qin Tianyou's people show up?"

Yu Hansheng shook his head: "Not yet, but everyone has been withdrawn and other things have been arranged. As long as he shows up, everything will be safe."

Yan Xu'an nodded, his eyes slightly lowered, and he said no more, but Yu Hansheng turned his eyes slightly, and his light eyes fell on her, with a smile on his beautiful eyebrows: "Is the young lady feeling better?"

Qin Shuangjiang was slightly startled, and looked up at the person looking down with some flattery. Their eyes met. Although there was a smile on his face, the coldness in his eyes could not be stopped.

She knew that this was because he couldn't show off his face in front of Yan Xu'an, and he didn't really care about her.

Thinking of this, Qin Shuangjiang lowered his eyes, still smiling with a gentle and inexperienced smile, nodded and said: "Young Master is worried, it's okay for the time being."

But the other party didn't care about her answer. He couldn't even hold back his eyes and rolled his eyes in a subtle way.

Qin Shuangjiang lowered her eyes, thinking about the disdainful and contemptuous look in Yu Hansheng's eyes when they first met her. Compared with how she had to pretend to care now, she felt secretly amused.

Yu Hansheng turned his eyes slightly and looked at Yan Xu'an again. There was nothing wrong with his expression. He took out a stack of paper and a slightly faded account book with yellowing paper from his sleeves and handed them to the table. .

Qin Shuangjiang kept pouring tea in her hands, but her eyes couldn't stop taking a glance. There was nothing written on the yellowed book cover. The paper underneath was also folded, and nothing could be seen.

"This was found in the darkroom of the Qin family's old house." Yu Hansheng said: "The bills of Qin Tianyou's transactions with the nobles of the family, as well as the things he has received over the years, are all recorded, including..."

As he spoke, his tone paused slightly. When Qin Shuangjiang felt the gaze on her face again, she was silent for a moment. Then she slowly raised her head, pretending to be surprised, and saw Yu Hansheng hesitated to speak. .

She put down the teapot in her hand, picked up the ink block beside her with her eyes lowered, and carefully ground it on the inkstone.

The next moment, Yan Xu'an did not raise his eyes, his dull gaze still stayed on the tree. He only said: "It doesn't matter, just say it."

Yu Hansheng lowered his eyes, with some displeasure in his expression, but he only remained silent for a moment, then said: "Including all the things captured when the Xia Rao Kingdom, Yu Kingdom, and Yuehua Kingdom were conquered, and the places where the prisoners of war were distributed, there are records. Registered." These countries were all conquered a few years ago, and without exception, they were all led by Qin Tianyou himself, especially Xia Rao. Although it was not as prosperous as Daqi, it was second only to Daqi. It is said that many people on the entire continent felt sorry for the existence of Qi long after Xia Rao was destroyed.

Somehow, after hearing this, Yan Xu'an's expression suddenly turned cold. Then he decisively put down the book in his hand, picked up the yellowed account book on the side and began to look through it. Qin Shuangjiang consciously lowered his eyes and avoided himself. I could see the booklet out of the corner of my eye.

Seeing this, Xu felt that Qin Shuangjiang still had some self-awareness. Yu Hansheng stood there and looked at her with eyes that finally softened slightly.

Yan Xu'an took the booklet in his hand and flipped through a few pages. His eyes quickly scanned the yellowed paper, and his face became more and more gloomy.

In the end, his eyes suddenly stopped on a certain page, his expression serious. After a while, he gently folded the corner of the page in his hand, and then closed the book heavily.

After a long silence, he said: "Send someone to Danyang."

It was just a few short words, but Yu Hansheng immediately understood it, and without asking any more questions, he took the booklet Yan Xu'an handed him, turned around and left the study.

Qin Shuangjiang was a little confused. Yan Xu'an seemed to be particularly concerned about writing about the past. Moreover, he and Yu Hansheng had a tacit understanding. From just now, they didn't want to guess that they had known each other for just a few years.

Somehow, Qin Shuangjiang seemed to have a feeling that not only Yu Hansheng, but also the identity of Yan Xu'an orphan might be fake, and the name might not be true.

Just as she was thinking about it, Qin Shuangjiang suddenly felt a tightness in her waist. She suddenly came back to her senses. She was already pulled into Yan Xu'an's arms. He held her on his lap and wrapped his arms around her whole body. He seemed to notice that she was absent-minded, and he asked her softly: "What are you thinking about?"

"..." Qin Shuangjian nestled in his arms, just looked at him with confused eyes, then lowered her eyes, then leaned on his neck obediently, and said in a low voice: "It's nothing, it's just that Mr. Yu seems to be Don’t like me very much.”

After listening to her words, Yan Xu'an did not speak immediately. He only tilted his head slightly and rubbed his lips against her forehead, and then said: "He has always been like this, not just for you, as long as he doesn't bully you. , you don’t need to pay attention to him.”

Listening to his words, Qin Shuangjiang remained silent and said nothing.

Yan Xu'an raised his hand, pinched her chin, and asked her to raise her head from her arms. Their eyes met. Even though she had been prepared, the moment she met his deep eyes, she couldn't help but feel something in her heart. Trembling slightly, he had to pretend to be calm on his face.

She looked at him and said doubtfully and cautiously: "My lord?"

Yan Xu'an didn't say anything, just looked at her intently, as if all his attention was on her for a moment, completely ignoring her voice. After a long silence, he said, "Has Qin Tianyou looked for you?"

As if he didn't expect that he would ask so directly, Qin Shuangjiang was slightly startled at first, then nodded while observing the changes in his expression.

He held her slender waist with his thick hands and rubbed it gently. The look in his eyes became more and more obscure, but it was definitely not angry. He leaned forward, pretending to kiss her, but she raised her hand, Pressing against his chest, he stopped trying to get closer.

After thinking for a brief moment, Qin Shuangjiang raised her hand to hold his big hand holding her chin, and gently moved it away. She sat in his arms, looked directly at him, looked at him with a slightly probing look, and then said: "I also told him that your Excellency will withdraw the troops, for my sake."

Yan Xu'an said nothing, but looking at his almost unchanged expression, she understood that he knew it in advance, or that the person he placed beside her had already been there on the night she and Qin Tianyou met again. So I told him what happened.

She lowered her eyes gently and moved closer to his arms again. She put her hands around his strong waist and pressed against his chest. She listened to his strong heartbeat through the clothes. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she felt inexplicably relieved.

She spoke calmly and asked him, "Are you angry, sir?"
