Chapter 428 The Man in Red
Yu Ge thought for a while and said, "The closer you get to the temple, the stricter the guards are. This servant thinks... If Madam is really restricted in her movements, then she is most likely locked up near the temple."

Song Qinghuan narrowed his almond eyes, and there was a coldness in his eyes. He heard the song and said, "There is a mysterious hall next to the holy hall, which is the meeting place for the elders and saintesses. Tomorrow, the five elders should meet with the empress in the mysterious hall." Meet with the emperor. At that time, the empress can find a chance to look around."

She raised her eyes and looked at Yuge, thought for a while, then nodded clearly.

The temple is so heavily guarded that it is impossible to come and go at will on weekdays. Since you have an opportunity tomorrow, you must make good use of it.

"Okay, tomorrow I will play by ear." She stood up and smiled gently at Yu Ge, "You are also tired these days, take a good rest, I am leaving first."

Yu Ge should be, sent Song Qinghuan out of the room before turning back to the room.

After a short rest, it was noon.

The lunch was delivered by the elders of the Fulan tribe.The dishes are exquisite and elegant. Because Yuheng Island is surrounded by the sea, most of the ingredients are seafood. Most of them are steamed and boiled. He didn't feel any discomfort at all, instead his index finger moved wildly, and he couldn't wait to pick up the bamboo chopsticks and start eating.

Shen Chuhan, who had changed his face slightly when he saw the seafood, frowned when he saw Song Qinghuan's appetite, and with a smile on his lips, he began to eat at a leisurely pace, and thoughtfully put some of her favorite food for Song Qinghuan from time to time Dishes, a meal is very satisfying.

After lunch, the bowls and chopsticks were removed, and Song Qinghuan became a little sleepy.People who are pregnant are sleepy. Although she is helpless, she also understands that for the sake of the baby in her womb, she needs to rest more.

Get up and stand up, look at Shen Chuhan and smile, "Ashu, I'm a little sleepy, let's take a nap first."

Shen Chuhan responded gently, and when she was on the couch, covered her with the thin blanket, bent down and kissed her lightly on the forehead, and said softly, "Sleep well."

Song Qinghuan nodded, closed her eyes, and soon fell asleep.

After all, it was in an unfamiliar environment, Song Qinghuan woke up after not sleeping for a long time.Looking back, the door was closed, and Shen Chuhan was not in the room.

She lifted the blanket and sat up, sat quietly on the couch for a while, her mind gradually recovered, she put on her coat and got up and got off the couch.

Pushing open the door, a soft wind blows in.

It was already the beginning of September, and the hottest summer was over. In addition, Yuheng Island was surrounded by the sea, and the sea breeze was blowing, so the climate was much cooler than that on Yunqing Continent.

She stretched out her hand to caress her swollen belly, and a softness flashed in the corner of her eyes.

Counting, the baby in the womb has been more than six months.I didn't expect the second child to come so soon. It's just that this little thing is destined to be with them. He insists on running around with her and is still healthy as before, just like his sister. It's really a peace of mind.

Sometimes when she thinks about it carefully, she always feels a little sorry for Youyou and the baby in her womb. No matter whether she was pregnant with Youyou at the beginning or she is pregnant with the baby in her womb, she has not been able to rest for a long time.Fortunately, they are all very well-behaved, and even the pregnancy reaction rarely makes her happen.He only makes a fuss in his belly occasionally, rather than tossing her, it's more like telling her that she is well. Song Qinghuan is very pleased to be so sensible while still in her belly.

She lowered her head, softly stroked her belly and said, "Be patient, baby, when the poison on Father's body is cured, we won't have to run around like this anymore."

At this time, he heard familiar footsteps coming from a distance, looked up, and saw Shen Chuhan entering the mansion from outside, striding towards her.

"Ah Wan woke up?" Shen Chuhan stepped forward and put his arms around her shoulders, "It's windy outside, why did you come out?" As he spoke, he walked into the room with his arms around her.

Song Qing smiled and sat down at the table, "Where have you been?"

"Go out with Xuanying to check the situation."

"How is it?" Song Qinghuan asked.

"As Jiang Yue and Yan Ge said, further inside is the temple, surrounded by strict guards, it is difficult for ordinary people to enter." Shen Chuhan said in a deep voice.

"Where is our neighborhood?" Song Qinghuan looked at him and asked.

"I walked around the street. Although the buildings on Yuheng Island don't occupy a large area, they are exquisitely constructed, especially here. The Fulan people I see occasionally look extraordinary, and they should have a very high status in the clan. .”

Song Qinghuan knew that the Fulan tribe was actually a small self-sufficient society with a clear division of labor. Although there was no distinction between masters and servants, there was still a distinction between high and low social status according to their spiritual power.

For example, the clansmen living in the outskirts are mostly engaged in some activities such as agriculture, fishery and handicrafts, while those living near the temple are more likely to engage in jobs that require spiritual assistance, such as guarding the temple and using spiritual power to make medicines , patrolling the island, etc.Fulan people who are engaged in agriculture, fishery or handicraft production need to submit their labor results to the elders every month, and then the elders distribute them to those who are engaged in other jobs.

This social division of labor has been passed down from generation to generation, and after so many years of improvement, it has become very complete.Even if someone is dissatisfied, they dare not say anything.

Song Qinghuan's eyes turned, "Ashu, I also want to go out and have a look."

Shen Chuhan looked at her, raised his brows slightly, with a half-smile, as if he was waiting for her next words.

Song Qinghuan confessed, "Ashu, Yuheng Island covers a large area, and there are many people from the Fulan tribe. I asked Yuge about it. She had never met her concubine before she rescued her. From this point of view, not everyone Everyone in the Fulan tribe has seen the saint. However, the people living here are different."

Shen Chuhan frowned slightly, and there was a thoughtful expression in his eyes.

Song Qinghuan went on to explain, "I don't know if Ashu has noticed that when the three elders first saw me, there was a strange look in their eyes. I didn't pay attention to it at the time, but now that I think about it carefully, their strange expressions at that time were about right. It was because I was somewhat similar to the concubine mother. But it was probably because the concubine hid it well, and they had no evidence to directly prove that I was related to the concubine mother. In addition, we showed the Cangxie sword later, so they didn't Think about it."

Speaking of this, she curled her lips into a sneering smile, "Ashu, the three of them are as cunning as foxes, even if they think of something, they won't show their flaws, but... the others may not be."

Shen Chuhan's eyes darkened, and he understood.

Even if Mrs. Qingxuan violated the clan rules and should be punished, it is impossible that only the five elders know the inside story of this matter. The clansmen who live here must know something more or less.

Song Qinghuan wanted to take the opportunity of walking on the street to observe the expressions of the people when they saw her.The Fulan people who live here are of high status, and most of them have seen the saintess before, and they will definitely react when they are surprised.Maybe...it might be possible to find out about Mrs. Qingxuan's situation through this.

After figuring out Song Qinghuan's intentions, Shen Chuhan didn't stop him, and nodded lightly, "Then I'll accompany you."

"Okay." Song Qing smiled happily, got up and called Shen Xing in, and asked Shen Xing to find a loose shirt for her to change into.Although she is more than six months pregnant, she doesn't show her pregnancy very much. In addition, her limbs are slender. After changing into a loose skirt, if you don't look carefully, you can't tell that she is pregnant at all. She is still a cardamom girl. appearance.

Song Qinghuan looked up and down in satisfaction, then turned to look at Shen Chuhan, "Ashu, let's go." As soon as he stepped up, he suddenly thought of something, then stopped and looked at Shen Chuhan behind him, raised his lips and smiled, with a bit of cunning in his eyes , but only pursed his lips and smiled without opening his mouth.

"What's the matter, Wan?" Shen Chuhan's eyes flashed, his pupils were as deep as ink, and the smile on his lips did not diminish.

"Ashu, if you are by my side, the clansmen here will definitely react quickly. Why don't you... I go out with Yun Ge?"

Shen Chuhan has an outstanding appearance and temperament, and he went out for a walk just now, and many people must be familiar with him.If he followed him, everyone would quickly realize that he was a foreigner who came with him, so how could they show their feet in panic?
Shen Chuhan's eyes darkened, and his breath seemed to sink by two points.

Seeing that he was worried about his own safety, Song Qinghuan hurriedly stepped forward, took his wrist and acted like a baby, "Ashu, I won't go far, just stroll around, everything will be fine."

Shen Chuhan was still worried, his brows were furrowed, as if he was thinking carefully.

Song Qinghuan thought about it again, and had to compromise, "Then... how about it, can you follow me? If something really happens, you can also make a move?"

Hearing that she insisted on walking away from him, Shen Chuhan pursed his lips helplessly.But he also knew that Mrs. Qingxuan's matter had always been a concern in Song Qinghuan's heart, since she believed that it would be better if he was not by her side, he didn't want to embarrass Song Qinghuan, so he lowered his eyes and nodded, "Okay. "

Song Qinghuan breathed a sigh of relief, smiled at him, and looked at Shen Xing, "Shen Xing, go and call Yuge over."

Shen Xing exited the room in response, and soon came back with Yan Ge.

"Your Majesty, are you looking for me?" Yu Ge bowed to the two of them.

Song Qinghuan nodded and said softly, "Come out with me for a walk."

Yu Ge was slightly taken aback, "Your Majesty, you mean... leave the mansion?"

Song Qinghuan gave her a meaningful look and nodded, "Is it convenient for you?"

"Naturally, it's convenient." Yu Ge said hastily.She has never been to this area, so naturally no one will know her.The reason why she was surprised just now was because she was afraid that Song Qinghuan would be overwhelmed.

"Then let's go." Song Qinghuan waved at her, then looked at Shen Xing and said, "Shen Xing, I'm counting on you here."

Shen Xing should be, and sent the three of them out.

After exiting Qingya Xiaozhu, we turned a corner and arrived at the street in the center of Lifang.

There is no concept of money on Yuheng Island, and naturally there is no talk of buying and selling, so there are no restaurants and teahouses on both sides of the street, but exquisite mansion buildings. The gates of the mansions are wide open, and the situation inside can be seen at a glance. smell.

From time to time, people came out of various households from all walks of life, so the streets were not deserted.But on Yuheng Island, everyone has their own errands, so even if they go out, they are going somewhere with a clear goal. It is rare to see such a leisurely and leisurely wandering person like Song Qinghuan.

So, not long after walking, Song Qinghuan attracted everyone's attention.For a while, people on the side of the road stared at her and started talking about her.

Seeing a few girls around the house, Song Qinghuan turned her eyes to this side, and greeted them generously. When she passed by several people, she raised her lips and smiled at them, which made them gasp. Inexplicably flustered.

At this time, another person came out of the mansion behind him. Jinghong happened to catch a glimpse of Song Qinghuan. He paused and subconsciously called out, "Saint...Saint..."

Before going out, Song Qinghuan specially instructed Shen Xing to find a dress similar to that of the Fulan tribe and put it on. In this way, no matter in terms of appearance, demeanor or dress, people really couldn't help but think of Mrs. Qingxuan.

Before the man finished speaking, another woman raised her elbow and poked her, and said in a low voice, "What nonsense are you talking about? The saint violated the family rules, how could she be released at this time? Take a closer look!"

The woman took a closer look, and sure enough, she stopped and muttered, "Who is this person? Why does he look so similar to the saint?"

"I heard that it is a foreigner invited by the elder, the owner of the Cangxie Sword."

They thought they were a certain distance away and the voice was so low that Song Qinghuan should not be able to hear them, but they didn't want all these words to be heard by Song Qinghuan, and a haze appeared in their eyes.

From this point of view, the concubine mother was really locked up, but I don't know... where she was locked up?

While contemplating, the pace slowed down a little, and suddenly, it seemed that there was something strange about the surroundings, and the original noise suddenly became quieter.

She looked up and couldn't help being slightly stunned.

I saw a man in red clothes walking out of the mansion ahead, with black hair like black ink, tied behind his back with a jade-colored ribbon, far away, there was a distinctive beauty in his bones.

The people of the Fulan tribe prefer plain clothes, but this man, dressed in a beautiful red dress, is so unrestrained that people can never forget it.
