Time travel is risky, and love requires caution

Ling Qiqi thought over and over again about whether to keep Liu or send her away. She certainly knew the principle of not employing people if you doubt them, and trusting people if you employ them.

Liu had betrayed her once, so he shouldn't trust her again. However, Ling Qiqi felt that it was this betrayal that had brought about subtle changes between her and Liu, and they could not let go of each other even more.

Once you understand a person's motives, it is easier to interpret his behavior. Ling Qiqi can tolerate a person's mistakes, but will not condone a person's badness. Liu is definitely not a bad person at heart. Ling Qiqi thinks she is a person of affection and righteousness. If it weren't for her, Liu's husband and two sons would not have been implicated and died.

So Ling Qiqi decided to have a frank talk with Liu. After all, Liu already knew that Yu'er had changed her name to Qi Qing, and Ling Qiqi didn't want to hide it from her anymore. It would be better to tell Liu the truth, show her sincerity, and completely win her over to her side.

First of all, Ling Qiqi emphasized her IQ LEVEL. In order to prove it well, she told Liu about her property in Beiwei Capital.

As expected, Liu was shocked. She had heard of the businesses that the Seventh Princess mentioned. She had heard of them. They were well-known in the capital. Not only were dignitaries flocking to them, but many talented merchants also came from afar to admire their reputation. She didn't expect that these famous shops in the capital were all opened by the Seventh Princess, and she had been running them since she was ten years old. The Seventh Princess, who always looked cute and sweet, had such business courage and skills, which made Liu amazed. However, after calming down, Liu felt that there were traces to these. The Seventh Princess had been eccentric since she was a child. She was not only bold and careful, but also eloquent, learned things very quickly, and had a personality that never suffered losses. Now she had put her energy into the right place.

Secondly, Ling Qiqi severely criticized Liu. How could she make such a decision on her own? She really didn't take her seriously. Fortunately, she was lucky this time, otherwise no one would have survived. Many hands make light work, and three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang. If there is something, everyone can discuss it together and face it together. In the future, everyone must ask her for instructions and obey her orders. If she treats her as air again, she will settle the score with Liu for this time.

Finally, Ling Qiqi comforted Liu. She believed that Liu was sincere to her and her mother, and she just needed to be careful with her approach in the future. This matter was over, and she would not pursue it any further. She hoped that Liu would get over the pain of losing her loved ones as soon as possible, learn to reconcile with herself, and be stronger for Young Master Liu. In addition, she would definitely find an opportunity to help Liu avenge the murder of her husband and son.

Liu couldn't tell how she felt, and she nodded repeatedly in agreement.

After talking it out with Liu, Ling Qiqi decided to call everyone to a meeting.

There were two topics for the meeting. One was to coordinate the relationships among the current family members so as to avoid inconsistencies in the external statements and cause trouble. The other was for everyone to speak openly about their future plans and make unified plans.

After unequal and unfriendly full consultations, a consensus was finally reached among all parties.

Liu pretends to be the mother and takes care of the household affairs, while the witch doctor still disguises himself as the father and runs the clinic. Liu Nian'an and Ling Qiqi, who is disguised as a man, pretend to be brothers and help out in the clinic. Qi Qing is the eldest daughter who married far away, and Du Jingshan is the eldest son-in-law, but husband and wife are just their temporary identities in Nan Shen, and they have other tasks. They have to return to Bei Wei as soon as possible. Du Jingshan will bring the fake ashes of the seventh princess back to Bei Wei to report to the Northern Emperor, so as to continue to paralyze the enemy. Qi Qing will return to Qi's pawnshop to inquire and pass on information to everyone. At that time, the messenger can be asked to pretend to be a patient to come to the clinic for consultation, and Ling Qiqi will continue to open a branch of the pawnshop in Nan Shen to connect the information network of Bei Wei and Nan Shen.

Ling Qiqi felt that it was necessary to rename the family members to avoid confusion. She insisted on using the character "Qi" as the surname of the four members of the family, father Qi Zixuan, mother Qi, eldest son Qi Gulong, and youngest son Qi Dongqiang. Together, they are Qi Gulong Dongqiang. Qi Qing continued to be called Qi Qing, because her name was fake anyway. As for Du Jingshan, Ling Qiqi said that there was no need to give him a new name, and everyone could just call him son-in-law and brother-in-law. Du Jingshan disagreed, but Ling Qiqi didn't care whether he agreed or not.

After that, everyone chatted for a while, and suddenly Ling Qiqi seemed to remember something and asked Du Jingshan:

"You said before that when we came to Nan Shen, we were brother and sister. Could it be that I took your last name Du?"

Du Jingshan smiled and nodded.

"You did it on purpose, right?"

"It's just a coincidence."

Ling Qiqi was so angry that her teeth were itching and she wanted to bite him. Why did he have to have a surname like Du? Du Qi, belly button, you are the belly button, your whole family is belly buttons.

After the meeting, everyone got busy with choosing a shop, buying medicinal materials, writing a name for the store, and ordering furniture.

Du Jingshan still made taking care of the Seventh Princess his first priority. He was very reluctant to go back to Beiwei. He was worried, so he wrote down everything that worried him, including how to eat, how to take supplements, how to use medicines... every detail was so big and small that the book had to be bound into a book because it was too thick.

Ling Qiqi laughed at him, is he writing a parenting manual?

The witch doctor laughed at him, saying that he was running a clinic, and he was not going to ruin his own child's health? Wouldn't that be like destroying his own reputation?

Du Jingshan didn't care about the sarcasm of the aunt and nephew. He handed the manual to Liu very formally and gave her many instructions. Liu was so confused that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She was touched by Du Jingshan's painstaking efforts, but she felt a little annoyed. She could even memorize it.

Du Jingshan also planted a few grasses with his own hands in the open space under the window of the Seventh Princess's room. Ling Qiqi didn't understand why Du Jingshan planted these things for no reason, and whether they could be eaten.

The witch doctor saw it but didn't point it out. Those grasses were both ordinary and extraordinary. They were ordinary because they were very common in Nan Shen. They were evergreen in winter and summer and had strong vitality. They could even grow on cliffs. When the branches and stems reached the soil, they would grow roots. Therefore, people in some places called them "immortal bridges". They were extraordinary because they were medicinal herbs. They were full of treasures and the whole plant could be used as medicine. They were called "Du Jingshan". Du Jingshan was really thoughtful to his niece. I'm afraid that his careless niece let him down.

Ling Qiqi's mind was indeed not on Du Jingshan and the "Du Jingshan" he planted. She had been thinking about it for a long time these days and wrote a secret letter to her father. The content of the letter was about her true situation. She asked her father to forgive her for deceiving the emperor. She had to fake her death out of necessity. If she had been in the open, it would be difficult for her to escape the disaster so luckily next time. She had very good reasons to suspect that everything was done by Chunhui Palace, and Chunhui Palace had gone to great lengths to put her to death, so there must be a bigger plot. She hoped that her father would send people to pay more attention to who the people in Chunhui Palace had contact with outside the palace. Of course, she hoped that these were just her suspicions, but it was better to be careful about some things. She would also collect evidence in the dark, and would never wrongly accuse a good person or let a bad person go. She told her father not to worry about her, and she would take good care of herself, just as if she was married. When the danger was over, she would return to Beiwei to reunite with her father. During this period, she asked her father to take care of his health and be careful of the people around him.

She asked Du Jingshan to keep the letter carefully and present it to the Northern Emperor when necessary.

She also gave Du Jingshan the outline of a play, The Butterfly Lovers. Yuehualou hadn't put on a new play for a while, so she gave him time to write the script and give it to Lichuan for rehearsal.

The case must be investigated, revenge must be taken, and money cannot be delayed in making.
