Chapter 23: Anger
When Qin Ping asked for leave to meet his parents and daughter, Qin Bai didn't tell him about Zhao Mo. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
At that time, Qin Bai felt that firstly, the most important thing for Zhao Mo's whereabouts was to be secretive enough, there was no need to make everyone know, and the less one person knew, the less the risk of leaking; secondly, he also underestimated the difficulty of the matter, thinking that after entering Beijing, he would be able to contact Zhao Mo's father, Zhao Shuo, without much effort, and then smoothly transfer Zhao Mo to Zhao Shuo, so that the Qin family no longer had to worry about his safety, and he didn't expect that there would be such trouble as Lan Xue. Now that there is nothing to be done, Qin Hanzhen proposed to find Qin Ping to convey the message, which can be said to be the easiest and safest plan. Qin Bai nodded in agreement with his granddaughter's proposal.
It's just that Qin Ping still has a few days before he has time to rest. At present, Zhao Mo has to live another low-key life of incognito.
Zhao Mo once again solemnly thanked the ancestors of the Qin family, but at the same time, he also felt that he couldn't rely on Qin Bai's father and son and Wu Shaoying for everything, and he himself had to find a way to contact his father. The small courtyard of Longfu Temple was a good clue, and he planned to keep an eye on it from time to time, ready to meet his father as soon as he saw him. If Zhao Shuo chartered that small courtyard, if it was really for the purpose that Qin Bai said, he would definitely pay attention to the secret whereabouts when he came to Longfu Temple. Zhao Mo took the initiative to contact his father, and there would be no danger.
But out of safety considerations, Qin Bai advised Zhao Mo not to go to Longfu Temple to wait in person. First, Lan Xue's position is suspicious, and I don't know if she will reveal Zhao Mo's whereabouts to people who shouldn't know, bringing danger to Zhao Mo; If you want to keep an eye on the visitors in that small courtyard, you can let Li Zi go and keep an eye on it.
He is just a small guy, whether it is the Liao Wangfu or the Wang family, no one knows him, and he is quite flexible, and he is familiar with the terrain, so it is easy to escape. He is Wu Shaoying's little servant given to Qin Hanzhen, and now Qin Hanzhen has no place to use him, so he can lend it to Zhao Mo for a few days.
Qin Hanzhen had no objection to this, Li Zi himself was also a little eager to try, and Wu Shaoying also instructed him to be careful.
Seeing this, Zhao Mo was really grateful in his heart, and solemnly thanked Qin Bai, Qin Hanzhen and Wu Shaoying again, and made a bow to Li Zi.
Li Zi smiled a little embarrassedly and waved his hand, touched his head, and said, "The little one will go back to the temple and keep an eye on it!" and ran quickly.
Only then did Qin Hanzhen know that this little guy in his house was quite thin-skinned, and he really didn't see it at ordinary times.
The matter was agreed, and the people dispersed. Wu Shaoying left with a smile, intending to catch up with Li Zi and give him some money to use when he was keeping an eye on the sentry. Otherwise, if he stayed in the temple for a few days, would it be difficult for him to pay for food and incense out of his own pocket? Moreover, Longfu Temple is a big temple after all, not a bazaar, and not everyone can enter it, so he must always find a better excuse so as not to arouse suspicion.
At this time, it was almost noon, and Qin Bai left Zhao Mo to come down for lunch. Although the other side of the guest room also provides guests with three meals a day, in a place like Chengenhou Mansion, the large kitchen in the outer courtyard is also snobbish. Guests like Wu Shaoying's "cousins" are naturally not as good as those high-ranking officials and nobles, or the maiden relatives of some decent wife and grandmother in the inner courtyard, and the food sent by the subordinates is not bad, nor is it much better. Although Zhao Mo himself didn't care, Qin Bai didn't want to wronged him in such a trivial matter of life. Therefore, as long as conditions permit, he will let Zhao Mo try his best to come to the Qingfeng Pavilion to eat, or directly send someone to divide two meals from the Qingfeng Pavilion to the guest house, and give Wu Shaoying and Zhao Mo the two of them, even the reason is ready-made - Master Qin San cares about his students and the student's cousin, can others manage it?
Zhao Mo was grateful to Qin Bai for his kindness, and he would not refuse. He knew what kind of children Qin Bai liked, so before lunch started, he first asked Qin Bai some questions that he didn't understand when he was reading, and after asking, he honestly showed Qin Bai his success in practicing calligraphy last night. After these things were done, he went to his aunt and grandmother Niu's to chat with the old lady about family life, and then taught Brother Zi'er to write a few words.
Qin Hanzhen had always wanted to act with him, but today he stayed in the study. She sensed that her grandfather was not in a very good mood and seemed to be angry, but she didn't want to show it and let others know. However, Qin Hanzhen was used to observing his face, and soon discovered that something was wrong with his grandfather. Since he didn't want to tell anyone, she simply stayed alone and quietly asked him what was wrong.
Qin Bai just smiled and said, "Grandfather is fine, your grandmother is waiting for you, go over quickly." ā
Qin Hanzhen said: "Grandmother has Brother Zi'er and Cousin Zhao there, and it's okay for me to go later." But grandfather is in a bad mood, how can I just walk away?" she thought about it, leaned over to Qin Bai's side and asked, "Is grandfather angry because of Cousin Zhao's father?"
Qin Bai paused, sighed, and did not deny it. He said: "Zhao Shuo is down, I just think that the Wang family is too arrogant! If you dare to say that it is harmful, it will be harmful, and there is still a royal law in their eyes?!"
Qin Hanzhen tilted his head: "Haven't they always been so arrogant? When Cousin Zhao was in Datong before, they already had the intention of harming him. She was not very surprised that Zhao Mo's brother-in-law was killed.
But Qin Bai was very surprised and angry: "At that time, they were just instigating, but it was Wen Sanye who attacked. Moreover, Wen Sanye arrested Guanglu back, but only put him under house arrest, and did not harm his life. Guanglu's younger brother really died young! He is just a concubine, and he is young, what threat can he pose to the future children of the Wang family's daughters? Could it be that for the Wang family, as long as the son born to his daughter in the future can sit on the throne of the crown prince smoothly, they will not hesitate to remove anyone who might hinder them? So is the current East Palace also an obstacle for them? When their son-in-law really becomes the new master of the East Palace, will the Holy Lord also become an obstacle to their son-in-law's accession to the throne? At that time, what are they going to do?!"
Qin Hanzhen already understood the reason for Qin Bai's anger. The Wang family's approach is indeed too much, and it seems to be a bit unscrupulous to achieve the end. Maybe a concubine of Zhao Shuo, the eldest prince of the Liao Palace, is nothing in the eyes of the Wang family, just a threat that they ensure that their daughter's future son will become Zhao Shuo's unique heir, or a threat that does not have much weight, but the Wang family obviously does not want any accidents to happen. They first bought off the third master of the Wen family and harmed Zhao Mo, and then directly killed Zhao Mo's brother-in-law. After his daughter gave birth to Zhao Shuo's heir, no one could hinder the child's future prospects. When Zhao Shuo successfully enters the East Palace and becomes the crown prince, the heirs born to the daughter of the Wang family will also become the future crown prince.
The Wang family's abacus played so loudly that they didn't seem to think that there was anything wrong with what they were doing. However, in Qin Bai's opinion, it was not only Zhao Mo and his cousins who were standing in front of the Wang family's Qingyun road, but also the prince of the East Palace, and even the current saints, how could they not hinder the existence of the Wang family from realizing their own ambitions? How could Qin Bai, who cared about the Holy Lord and the East Palace, endure it?
Qin Hanzhen could only gently pat his grandfather's back to appease his anger. She looked over to the West House, and saw that Zhao Mo was sitting upright under Niu's hands, listening to her talk, not to mention how honest and well-behaved she was. She rolled her eyes, and said to Qin Bai, "Actually, now...... The most troublesome thing is that Cousin Zhao didn't dare to make a big deal about it, for fear of affecting his father's reputation and hindering his father's future, which would damage the relationship between their father and son. But I think ...... Grandfather, a man who ignores the lives of his wife, children, and relatives in order to climb up, if he is really allowed to ascend to a high position, it will not be good for the country and the people. If Cousin Zhao's father would rebel against the Wang family's actions in order to protect him, that's fine. If he pretends not to know and ignores the threat to his own son's life, we still have to sue him. ā
Qin Bai looked at his granddaughter, Qin Hanzhen blinked: "This case is not actually Cousin Zhao's father, but the Wang family behind him." After all, now that the East Palace is safe and sound, no matter what those clan children think in their hearts, they will not openly say that they want to be the crown prince on the surface, which is cursing the East Palace. In this way, no one can say whether his name has been decided, and everyone has hope, isn't it? If the eldest son of the King of Liao fails, who will stand out? Even if Cousin Zhao's father fails, he no longer has to worry about being plotted by his father and stepmother, and he can gain a firm foothold in the capital, but it is difficult to guarantee that the Wang family will no longer target the children of other clans. The safest way is to let the saint know the Wang family's calculations. ā
In fact, she felt that after marrying her daughter to the eldest son of King Jin and King Liao one after another, the Wang family's plan was already Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone knew it. Now who doesn't know that the Wang family is bent on bringing out a future queen with the blood of the Wang family? But whether the saint knows it or not is unknown. I still have to make it clear to him, let him be a little precautionary, so that everyone can feel at ease.
Qin Bai was silent. Qin Hanzhen didn't dare to come out, staring at his grandfather's face with his eyes.
After a while, Qin Bai finally had an expression. He looked at his granddaughter and smiled.
Qin Hanzhen asked carefully, "Does grandfather also agree with my opinion?"
Qin Bai didn't answer, but just said, "The boxes that your second aunt sent yesterday are still there." Do you want to open it and take it, and if you like something, take it. ā
Qin Hanzhen was stunned, what does this mean, is his grandfather in favor or not?
But Qin Bai just refused to give her a definite answer, but instead smiled and led her to the big boxes, studied the seals on them, and then looked for a paper cutter to open the seals.
At this moment, the Yao family in the inner courtyard sent someone over again. This time it was a mother-in-law, and the task was to pass the word: "The second grandmother asked, when will the third master and the third wife be free? )
