Chapter 2049 The Rise of the Concubine's Daughter 5
Yun Qiao was temporarily relieved of the troubles of getting married and was happy.
But she outwardly pretended to be hurt and told Yun's father that she wanted to stay at Qingshan Temple outside the city for a while to clear her mind.
Lord Yun felt guilty towards his daughter, so he agreed.
Yun Qiao, accompanied by two personal maids and several servants from her own courtyard, went to Qingshan Temple.
Qingshan Temple is located on a mountain ten miles outside Beijing. It is a popular place of worship, and most Buddhists in Beijing come here to burn incense.
Because it was some distance from the capital, some people might not be able to return to the city before the city gates closed after burning incense, so they stayed overnight at the temple.
Qingshan Temple has special guest rooms. Before Yun Qiao arrived, she had someone rent a small courtyard, which was the furthest from the main hall of Qingshan Temple, making it the best place to sneak away.
Every day, Yun pretends to be copying scriptures alone in the quiet room, but actually sneaks out to play.
Unfortunately, Qingshan Temple is not close to the capital, and even using light-footed skills, it would take a lot of time to go back and forth.
Yun Qiao couldn't go into the city to shop, so she could only visit the nearby villages.
Before leaving, Liu Tong left her with many books, including "Qimin Yaoshu", "Nongzheng Quanshu" and "Tiangong Kaiwu".
Yun Qiao could recite the contents by heart, but there were many parts she couldn't understand.
The reason is simply that she has never seen the actual object or practiced it.
Before coming to Qingshan Temple, Yun Qiao stole a piece of clothing from her own brother, altered it to a smaller size, and wore it to disguise herself as a man.
He walked through the fields, observing the crops firsthand and comparing them with the descriptions in the book.
Yun Qiao chatted with the farmers, listening to their years of farming experience, and occasionally shared the knowledge from the book, giving them guidance.
The experienced farmers found Yunqiao's tips very useful.
They chose to use it, and the result was naturally good.
The farmers and their families were very grateful to Yun Qiao.
Yun Qiao has gained a certain reputation in these villages.
That day, Yun Qiao returned to Qingshan Temple from the village at the foot of the mountain.
In order to save time on the journey, Yun Qiao was straightforward and took advantage of her light-footed skills to go up and down the mountain directly from the steep cliff.
Yun Qiao had just reached the halfway point of the mountain when she felt something falling from above, about to hit her head.
Yun Qiao: "..."
Yun Qiao turned around, shifted a foot to the side, and then reached out and caught the person who had jumped off the cliff.
The man had closed his eyes and was waiting to die, but he felt something tighten around his waist and he could no longer feel any falling.
The man opened his eyes in confusion and found himself being carried by a girl.
Although the girl was dressed in men's clothes, she had no Adam's apple, pierced ears, and her soft breasts were pressed against his body...
The man blushed.
He had never been so intimate with anyone before; he had never even held hands with his fiancée.
Then he realized something was wrong.
Didn't he jump off a cliff? Why didn't he land?
And instead of falling, he was flying upwards?
This, this, this...
Could he be dead?
Or perhaps, he encountered a deity?
Only gods can fly!
Yun Qiao led people to the top of the mountain, not the mountain she had originally intended to reach, but the top of another mountain.
The person who jumped off the cliff was injured and looked very disheveled, so it's very likely that he was forced to jump.
She recognized the man as Duanmu Huan, the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review.
She went to see the imperial examination candidates parade through the streets back then.
Even the exceptionally handsome top scholar was captivated by him.
She knew that a relationship with the top scholar was impossible, but whenever she heard news about Duanmu Huan, she would stop and listen for a bit.
On her way to Qingshan Temple, Yun Qiao heard people mention Duanmu Huan and learned that he had gone to Jiangnan as an imperial envoy to investigate a case. Now, could it be that he has uncovered some great secret and is being hunted down?
So it's best not to go back to that mountain, lest the assassin is still there and hasn't left.
Yun Qiao landed on her feet and released Duanmu Huan.
Duanmu Huan finally felt grounded and quickly bowed to Yun Qiao to express his gratitude.
"Thank you so much, immortal, for saving my life."
Yun Qiao waved her hand: "I'm not an immortal."
Duanmu Huan didn't believe it. How could someone who wasn't an immortal fly?
Yun Qiao: "That's light-footed skill. Aren't there stories in the novels about chivalrous heroes leaping across rooftops and scaling walls?"
But you didn't just fly over walls, you really did "fly"!
Duanmu Huan knew that the person in front of him was not an immortal, but a mortal like himself, so he quickly asked Yun Qiao's name, wanting to repay her kindness in the future.
Yun Qiao waved her hand: "I can't thank you enough. I have something to do, so I'll be going now."
How could a young woman like her, confined to her room, possibly reveal her name to outsiders?
If Duanmu Huan were not engaged, she might even tell him her name so that he would repay her kindness by marrying her.
Yun Qiao used her lightness skill and disappeared from Duanmu Huan's sight in a few leaps.
Duanmu Huan sighed softly, wondering if he would ever see this girl again.
Duanmu Huan quickly went down the mountain and, taking advantage of the fact that the assassins and the mastermind thought he was dead, rushed into the palace to hand over the evidence to the emperor.
Yun Qiao didn't dwell on saving Duanmu Huan; she was going back to her residence.
Yun Qiao's eldest sister is getting married, and she, as her half-sister, will definitely have to go back to attend the wedding.
When Yun Qian saw Yun Qiao return, she gave her a cold shoulder.
A few days ago, Zhang Yu's parents came to the Yun family to propose marriage, and Lord Yun has agreed to the marriage between her and Zhang Yu.
Yun Qian was filled with regret. She should never have tried to seduce Yun Qiao's fiancé just to make Yun Qiao jealous.
Yun Qian's eyes darted around, and an idea popped into her head.
She and Zhang Yu are not yet married.
Everyone knows that the Zhang family and the Yun family are engaged, but no one knows which family they are engaged to.
If Yun Qiao and Zhang Yu were to have physical intimacy, then the two would have no choice but to get married.
Did Zhang Yu cause Yun Qiao to fall into the water and then go to rescue her?
Yun Qian shook her head and rejected the idea.
Even when Zhang Yu rescued Yun Qiao, their skin was touching, but it couldn't compare to her embracing Zhang Yu.
Lord Yun witnessed this with his own eyes.
unless……
The two of them really did engage in sexual relations...
Yun Qian summoned her personal maid and gave her a few instructions.
The maid was so frightened that she shook her head violently, not daring to agree.
Yun Qian took out a hundred-tael silver note and asked, "Do you want silver, or do you want me to kick you out of the manor?"
The maid swallowed hard.
One hundred taels! That's enough to buy ten acres of fertile land.
With so much fertile land, life will surely become much better.
The family had enough money to send her little nephew to school!
Chunxi took the silver note, used the excuse of visiting relatives to go home, and then asked her older brother to go to a brothel to buy the things Yunqian needed.
Yun Qiao received a message from her maid, saying that Yun Qian had invited her to visit Yun Qian's courtyard, as Yun Qian had something important to say.
Yun Qiao was puzzled. She didn't think she and Yun Qian had anything to talk about, but she still came.
Chunxi led Yunqiao into a room, which was not Yunqian's bedroom, but a guest room.
Incense was burning inside the room, and the smell was quite strong… (End of Chapter)
