The concubine lifted the table, the prince was too rampant

191: There is a traitor in Anyuan, and Zijin is so angry that she is talking on the so-called road and eavesdropping in the grass nest.That is to say, some people think that they are in a safe place and will not be overheard by others, but they may be overheard by people in unexpected places.Just like Yao Yutang, if ordinary people are not familiar with Zijin, even if they hear the little nun mention their name, they won’t take it to heart, but when their sister hears it, they will naturally hear it in their hearts, Yao There are many children in the family, and it is not easy for outsiders to identify them one by one.

Zi Jin didn't want everyone to worry, so she smiled and covered up the matter, "Maybe I heard someone mention it, and I accidentally repeated it. Someday I will go to Guzi Nunnery to offer incense sticks."

After all, what Zi Jin said makes sense. After all, in places like these temples, Taoist temples, and aunts, the people in the capital are the ones who should not be offended. .

Zi Jin gave Yao Yutang gifts from Mrs. Ye, Du Manqiu, and the eldest princess. Yao Yutang hurriedly thanked her and asked Zi Jin to thank her on her behalf.

Zi Jin met the Hou's mansion, and first went to Mrs. Ye's room to thank Yao Yutang. Unexpectedly, Du Manqiu and the eldest princess were both there, so they thanked her together.Mrs. Ye smiled and asked, "How is your sister's bosom?"

"Well, I can eat and sleep, thank you grandma for your concern." Zi Jin said with a smile, and Du Manqiu also said with a smile: "The first three months of pregnancy are the most important for a woman. gone."

"Yes, my sisters also told the fourth sister that way." Zi Jin said with a smile.

The eldest princess looked at Zi Jin, and smiled softly: "Your sisters are already healthy, and you have to spread the branches and leaves for the Ye family."

As soon as the words fell, Mrs. Ye also smiled and said: "It is for this reason, your sisters are easy to give birth to, and you may not be where you are, just work harder."

There was a bit of bitterness on Du Manqiu's face, but he still forced a smile, but there was a cloud of black ink deep in his eyes, which was so thick that it couldn't be melted away, making it hard to see what he was thinking.

Zi Jin's face was flushed, and she twisted her handkerchief and said softly, "My daughter-in-law dare not live up to the expectations of her elders, she will only work hard." When she said this, she paused, looked up at Mrs. Ye and said, "My four My sister said that she never got pregnant at first, but she heard people say that the incense in Qingshui Temple is very efficacious, so she went there a few times, and she really got pregnant.

Qingshui Temple is quite famous in Kyoto, Mrs. Ye squinted her eyes and thought for a while, then turned her head to look at Du Manqiu and said, "I remember that Master Jing Mi, the master of Qingshui Temple, visited our Hou Mansion a few years ago, right? "

Du Manqiu looked slightly stunned, probably not expecting that Mrs. Ye would ask her suddenly, he was stunned and came back to his senses with a smile: "That's true, but mother doesn't really believe it, and we haven't talked to Qing Shui since then. There are too many contacts in the nun, and the daughter-in-law just donates some sesame oil money every month."

Since Zijin entered the mansion, she had never heard that Du Manqiu actually donated sesame oil money to Qingshui Temple, and she still donated every month. Seeing Du Manqiu's understatement, it seemed that it was not a big deal, and her eyes were on Du Manqiu's hands. Covered by the wide sleeves, Zi Jin could still slightly see the wrinkled handkerchief.

It's just a Qingshui Temple, how could Du Manqiu feel this nervous?Zi Jin felt obedient, but this doubt was only a blink of an eye, because looking again, Du Manqiu's hand had already been released, and the smile on his face was the same as before, as if Zi Jin was dazzled just now.

"A few years ago, since Mrs. Hou worshiped the Bodhisattva in Qingshui Nunnery and became pregnant, it is obvious that it is also efficacious. Let Mingxuan's daughter-in-law and Brother Jin's wife and Brother Fan's daughter-in-law go to worship together in another day. Mrs. Ye sighed, it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, as long as it works.Now that they can't find out the reason why Ye Jin and Ye Fan are infertile, they can only worship Bodhisattva for psychological comfort.

"Actually, the most famous place in Kyoto is Dajue Temple. The incense is the most prosperous, and the Qianqing Temple is also quite famous. They are worse than Qingshui Temple. Why don't we go to Dajue Temple?" Du Manqiu asked with a smile, "Since we are begging for a son, why don't we go to Dajue Temple?" The sesame oil money should be donated more."

Mrs. Ye was a little hesitant. She was not sure whether to go to Dajue Temple or Qingshui Temple. He didn't change his face, just looked at the eldest princess with a wink for help.

The eldest princess glanced at Zijin, then smiled and said to Du Manqiu: "Since Mrs. Hou got her wish in Qingshui Temple to pray for a child, why don't we go to Qingshui Temple first, and if Qingshui Temple doesn't work, then go to Dajue Temple or Ganqing Temple. "After saying this, he looked at Mrs. Ye and asked: "Mother, what do you think?"

Mrs. Ye nodded and said: "That's it, let's go to Qingshui nunnery first."

Zijin breathed a sigh of relief, still lowered her eyes, her face was calm, even though she didn't look up, she could feel Du Manqiu's vague gaze sweeping over her body, it was a very strange feeling, as if she was scanning her body. Generally, it seems to see if there is anything weird about myself, but fortunately Zi Jin is not careless, her face is as shy as before, after all, she is still a half-new wife, she would blush when she hears about begging for a child.

After walking out of Luyuan, Zijin followed the eldest princess back to Meiyuan, and Mother Jiang served tea herself and stood aside to serve her.Zi Jin knew that Nanny Jiang was the most trustworthy person around the eldest princess, so she didn't shy away from it, she just raised her head and glanced outside through the window.Mammy Jiang understood immediately, and pretended to be careless, opened the curtain and patrolled outside, and after making sure no one was eavesdropping, she slowly came back.

Only then did Zi Jin lower her voice and said, "Mother, I'm going to see my fourth sister this time, and I heard from her that someone mentioned my name in Qingshui Nunnery."

The eldest princess was taken aback for a moment, and her hands froze when she was about to take off the heavy golden step embroidered with precious red gold silk on her head, and then pushed the hairpin back into her hair, and asked, "What's going on?" It's because he has experienced a lot of things, and he can quickly notice something is wrong. It stands to reason that a place like Guzi'an would not casually mention the names of the nobles of the Xungui family.

Mother Jiang also frowned and said: "Our family and Qingshui Temple donate a little sesame oil every month except Mrs. Du, and no one has much contact with them. How could the name of the third young lady appear in Guzi Temple for no reason? In the little nun's mouth?"

Zijin said at this time: "It's not a little nun. My fourth sister often goes to Qingshui Nunnery and knows a little about it. She said she is a nun of the Heng family."

Although she didn't have much contact with Qingshui Temple, the eldest princess didn't know what the Heng character generation was, but Madam Jiang knew, she was taken aback, and said, "It's actually Master Jing Mi's apprentice?"

The fragrance of apricot blossoms is burning in the three-legged auspicious animal copper tripod on the incense stand, and there are gold, silver and jade wares in various forms on the ancient shelf next to it. The curtain moved slightly, like water ripples floating, colorful.

The decoration of the eldest princess' room is not so luxurious, but it has a noble feeling that makes people dare not look at it. This kind of low-key luxury is not something everyone can learn. vision.To observe a person's character, one has to start small. This sentence is regarded as a wise saying, and Zi Jin is right. At least the eldest princess sitting in this room can stand up to the low-key luxury of the room.

"No wonder you brought the topic to Qingshui Nunnery today. I think you have some doubts about it?" The eldest princess sighed softly, her expression unclear.

Zi Jin hurriedly said: "I originally wanted to discuss with my mother before proceeding. I didn't expect you and Mrs. Du to be here. I thought it would be better to hit the sun instead of another day. And I just found out that when I mentioned Qingshui Temple , Madam Du looks a little weird."

Zi Jin talked about her discovery, and said: "After all, it's my own guess, so I can't be sure."

"Mrs. Du has always been calm and accurate in her actions, and she sometimes loses her mind. It seems a bit weird." Jiang Nanny said, Jiang Nanny has never had a good impression of Du Manqiu. For so many years, even if she didn't I understand it very well, and I can guess it to a certain extent.

The eldest princess looked at Zi Jin and said, "Are you suspecting that there is only a superficial reconciliation with us, but there are actually other actions in private?"

Zi Jin felt a little embarrassed, her face turned red, and then said: "Maybe my daughter-in-law is too small-hearted, I always feel that if it were me, I might not be at ease. After all, we have been fighting for more than ten years. If you say let it go, let it go, anyone will have some doubts whether it is not the same as the outside. And just now at the grandmother's place, Mrs. Du should have been with Qingshui Temple for many years, but not many people seem to know, mother It seems to be the first time I know that Mrs. Du has been adding sesame oil money to Qingshui Temple all these years, and she must donate every month. It will be strange for so many years."

The eldest princess nodded, "This is the first time I've heard of this. I just knew that Qingshui Temple had been visited a few years ago, but I didn't care about it. I'm a member of the royal family, and I usually go to more royal temples. There are more Dajue Temples."

When several people gathered together, there were more and more suspicious points, Zi Jin suddenly looked at Jiang Mama and asked, "Mama, have the eldest sister and second sister-in-law ever been to Qingshui nunnery after entering the house?"

Mother Jiang was taken aback, thought about it seriously, and said, "No, at least I didn't go out to Qingshui Nunnery from the Hou's Mansion openly." This means that I have never been to the gate of the Hou's Mansion, but I am in my mother's house. No one knows if he went or not.

Zi Jin pondered silently. If both Chu and Shen had not followed Du Manqiu to Qingshui Temple, this would also explain one thing. If Du Manqiu really had anything to do with Qingshui Temple, then Chu and Shen didn't know about it. Yes, that's why when the old lady said to let Mrs. Chu and Mrs. Shen go together, Zi Jin had at least two more to cover her eyes.

Thinking of this, he suddenly smiled, looked at the eldest princess and said, "Let's see if we can go to Qingshui nunnery this time, sister-in-law and second sister-in-law."

The eldest princess laughed, and reached out to touch Zijin's forehead, "You are the ghost."

Mother Jiang smiled straight at the side: "The third young lady is extremely intelligent, it's the princess' blessing."

Yes, if the Chu family and the Shen family can go on without any hindrance, it means that their suspicion of Du Manqiu may be a bit unreliable. If the two cannot go smoothly, it can be confirmed that Du Manqiu is likely to have a ghost of.Of course, if the mind is a little more cunning, if it can go smoothly, it is very likely that Du Manqiu has already arranged everything in Qingshui Temple, and he is not afraid of someone looking for something.

This trip to Qingshui Temple is just a stepping stone for Zi Jin to test Du Manqiu. Of course, it would be even better if he can really find out what's weird about Qingshui Temple. Zi Jin probably can't do this, but it's very easy. It is possible that Ye Mingxuan can do it.

But now Wanrong is the biggest in Jinyiwei, and now Ye Mingxuan is also suspicious of Wanrong, it may not be an easy task to avoid Wanrong and investigate Qingshui Temple.What made Zijin feel the most confused was Ye Jin and Ye Fan, what role did they play in this.

Facing the dark mist ahead, Zijin felt that the future was really at a loss.

If Yao Yutang hadn't suddenly mentioned his name and appeared in Qingshui Nunnery, if he hadn't returned to Hou's mansion to talk about it with Mrs. Ye, and then found that something was wrong with Du Manqiu, maybe Zi Jin would really relax his vigilance, after all Ye Qingcheng had promised to let her go. If Ye Jin conquered the throne, then Du Manqiu should have no desire to continue fighting, and the Ye family should join forces to defend against foreign enemies.Now the biggest enemy of the Hou Mansion is Qin Shifeng, and the biggest hidden danger is that Zi Jin has a face similar to that of Ah Ruo. No matter what, the hidden danger of the Hou Mansion has been buried.

Zi Jin didn't even know if one day, when Qin Shifeng ascended the throne of God, would Mrs. Ye and Du Manqiu surrender themselves to save the Hou Mansion.Life is a game, and now it seems that Zijin can still be safe and sound under the protection of the Hou Mansion, but when the Hou Mansion can't protect her, and she becomes the biggest hidden danger of the Hou Mansion, no one can predict the highest level of the family. Will the person in charge give up himself for the sake of the family?

Therefore, Ye Mingxuan will try his best not to let Qin Shifeng sit on the throne of God, but what can Yao Zijin do?As a housewife, she really can't do much, the only thing she can do is to let Ye Mingxuan fight in the officialdom without any worries.

Back in An Yuan, Zi Jin felt a little bit exhausted, too many things came her way, which made her a little unprepared.I wanted to have a good sleep alone with the quilt covered, but who knew that as soon as they entered the door, Zhou's mother and Xianqiao followed in. The two looked dignified. Through the window, they saw Hanmei and Shui Rong under the eaves of the main house. Doing needlework, it is said that it is doing needlework, but it is to guard the door for Zijin to prevent others from eavesdropping or approaching.

Seeing the dignified faces of the two, Zi Jin's heart lifted up, all exhaustion disappeared at once, and she asked, "What's the matter?" On her pillow, the solemnity between her brows and eyes cannot be concealed.

"The girl told us to keep an eye on the whereabouts of everyone in the yard that day, and today we finally have a clue." Xian Qiao replied in a low voice.

Zi Jin raised her eyes to look at Xian Qiao in a daze, and asked, "She didn't show up when I went to the Eldest Princess' dew garden that day, but did she show up when I left the mansion today?"

Zhou's mother snorted angrily, and said: "That's right, cunning little hoof, if the old slave hadn't developed a better mind, I'm afraid he would have been deceived."

Being able to fool Zhou's mother's eyes was a big deal, Zi Jin felt that the matter was of great importance, she sat up straight and asked, "Speaking slowly, who is this person?"

"Suwan." Xianqiao said.

Hearing this name suddenly, Zi Jin was just taken aback, not surprised, Su Wan was Madam Du's eyeliner who came in, looked up at Mother Zhou and asked, "Did she go to Chengyuan to deliver the news?"

Zhou's mother shook her head, and said: "It's fine if you go to Chengyuan. After all, no one in this manor knows that Suwan is Mrs. Du's, but she didn't go to Chengyuan."

"Didn't you go to Chengyuan? Then where did you go?" Zi Jin's expression became more and more serious. This result was really unexpected. Could it be that Su Wan is not Du Manqiu's person?

Xianqiao glanced at Zhou's mother, and then said: "Suwan is not on duty today, so I took a day off with Zhou's mother to go back and visit my mother." This is true, Suwan's family is the son of the Hou family, so it is also necessary to go back to visit.Zi Jin nodded, and said, "And then?"

"Madam has been married for a few months, but she doesn't see Suwan going back to visit relatives during her monthly holidays. Mother Zhou felt a little strange, so she told the servant to find your accompanying room and now take care of your dowry shop. Shopkeeper Chen asked his youngest son Chen An to watch Suwan's every move outside." Xianqiao said slowly.

Zi Jin nodded silently, Zhou's mother is doing very well, it can be seen that she is really doing things with her heart, using her housekeeper outside, because of her face, it will not arouse others' suspicion.

After a small pause, she continued: "After Su Wan returned home, the door of her house was closed, and no one came out. Shopkeeper Chen's youngest son, Chen An, is very clever, so he walked around her house Because her family lives in the middle of the house behind the long alley in our Hou Mansion for the servants. The alley is so long that it takes half an hour for Chen An to walk around, and he is afraid that he will walk away I didn't know that someone came out in front of me, so I took out ten copper coins and gave them to two little beggars on the street, and asked them to watch for them. Just let the two of them stare at each other, and then come back here to wait for him after staring at the person, and he will give each of the two little beggars a tael of silver as a reward."

Zi Jin was very relieved. Among his servants, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, it seems that Chen An can be reused in the future.

Xian Qiao didn't know what Zi Jin was thinking, and continued: "Arranging two little beggars to keep watching, Chen An quietly turned to the back of Su Wan's house to see if there was a corner door for easy access. Thinking that before Chen An turned in, he saw a small sedan chair parked in the back alley, and a nun came out and knocked on a door, and the door opened soon, but Chen An didn't see the door open. The people just saw the nun walking in. At that time, the bearer of the sedan chair was still in the back alley. Chen An didn't dare to act rashly, so he turned around and turned back, called one of the two little beggars over, and asked him to go and follow the bearer of the sedan chair. begging, remember which door those people are standing in front of.”

Hearing what Xianqiao said, Zijin understood that every house should have a corner door for easy access, because the place where the servants lived in ancient times was a long row of houses, and the middle was separated by a wall to form individual small houses. The courtyard is like a pigeon cage. There are exactly the same houses and the same corner door. When people walk over to look at it, it is really hard to tell which family it belongs to. This Chen An is not only clever but also very smart.

"The little beggar naturally passed by, but I didn't expect that the person who carried the sedan chair not only didn't feel sorry for the little beggar, but also gave him two feet and beat him out. But the little beggar was also very clever. After all, he remembered where the person who carried the sedan chair stood. He made a secret note when he fell to the ground. Chen An asked this little beggar to replace another little beggar who was guarding the front door, and when these people carried the nun away, let the little beggar The beggar followed. Chen An waited until the people left, then walked into the alley, found the secret mark made by the little beggar, memorized the number of doors, went back to the main entrance and counted all the way, it was Su Wan's home When Chen An walked to the front door, the little beggar guarding the front door disappeared. Chen An knew that someone must have gone out of the front door and the little beggar followed him, so he went to the place he had made an appointment with and waited. It took four or five hours for the two of them to come back. The little beggar who followed the sedan chair at the back door followed the nun directly out of the city, and then entered a nunnery. What's the name of An, I just came back, so it took some effort. The other little beggar was more dangerous. It turned out that the person who went out the front door was trying to divert the attention. Fortunately, the little beggar was more clever. On the other hand, I saved my mind and waited first through another small path. Who knew that I waited for more than an hour but did not wait for anyone. Although the little beggar was very scared, he wanted to make an appointment with someone, so he walked carefully. Turning back at the other end of the road that he hadn't taken at first, he found a dead body in the long alley that turned when he came to the place he felt was wrong, and this dead body was not the person the little beggar was following. "Xianqiao said as she spoke, her face turned pale, and her hands were faintly sweating.

Zijin never thought that there would be such a danger, she frowned tightly, looked at Xianqiao and asked, "Is the nunnery that the little beggar followed called Qingshui nunnery?"

Both Xianqiao and Zhou's mother were taken aback, and asked in unison: "How do you know?"

Zijin waved her hand and didn't answer, but thought about the second little beggar. It seems that the person who followed Suwan's front door was not only the little beggar, but also another person. Which one must have noticed that someone was following him, so he intentionally Lead people to remote places to assassinate and destroy the enemy.It's just that the little beggar is very clever, and he is used to following suit. When he sensed something was wrong, he knew to block it in front, but he didn't expect that such a blockade would save his life. It's a pity that the opponent was too cunning, so he still couldn't follow the man's whereabouts. .

However, this has also revealed too much news to Zi Jin, that is, it is not accidental that Su Wan went home to visit her relatives. An didn't see it, the other one came later than Chen An, so Chen An met him.

Zi Jin looked at the two of them and asked, "Is the one who walked through the front door a man or a woman? The little beggar should know the gender."

Mother Zhou calmed down and said, "It's a man. The little beggar is said to be wearing an indigo silk shirt. He is about six feet tall and has a fierce and hard face, which is very frightening."

One foot in ancient times was much less than the current one foot, but if you are six feet tall, you will be about 1.8 meters tall, and your face is fierce and rigid. Only people who practice martial arts all the year round will have such a frightening aura. A stalker's blood spattered three feet also proved this point. Even if this man does not have peerless martial arts, at least he is a master of two hands. Such a person is simply not affordable for ordinary people.

Things became more and more complicated, and Zijin's mind almost wrinkled into a ball.Unexpectedly, I just had some doubts about Qingshui Temple, and then I sent good news here. If Suwan had contacts with people from Qingshui Temple, would Du Manqiu, the former owner of Suwan, know if she knew about it, or was Du Manqiu instigating Su? Want to go out to meet people and deliver news?

Seeing Zijin's more and more serious expression, Xianqiao and Zhou's mother became more and more uneasy, and they both looked at Zijin and said nothing.

After a long time, Zi Jin said slowly: "Chen An has done a good job, tell shopkeeper Chen that I admire his son very much, let him just hang a name in the shop, and then let Chen An find the original two. Little beggars, try to form a group of these little beggars to listen to news, all kinds of news." Speaking of this, Zi Jin paused, she needed a gang of beggars, but the gang of beggars in martial arts is too powerful Zi Jin asked herself I don't have the ability to form one, but these people who live at the bottom of this society are everywhere, so they can get a lot of news that others don't know. Zijin must make good use of this advantage.Thinking of this, she said: "Xianqiao, you tell Chen An that you will call these children together and ask them to inquire about the news. I will pay for their food, but one thing must be ensured is that their lives are safe. Do not follow in dangerous places. If you can’t find out the dangerous news, don’t follow it desperately. On the premise of guaranteeing your name, the more news you get, the better. Of course, when I want to know about someone’s news, I will ask you to send them a letter, and then let When they take action, when there is nothing to do, they should still be scattered in every corner of Kyoto as before."

Zi Jin thought that it would be better if such a big stall should be handed over to Ye Mingxuan, he is a man, and he was born in Jinyiwei, so it would be easier to do these things.

Sure enough, when Ye Mingxuan came back at night, Ye Mingxuan's eyes lit up when Zi Jin mentioned this matter, but Ye Mingxuan also gave Zi Jin an absolutely unexpected news.
