Chapter 202: A Man with a Background

When Qingzhi and Baoshan returned to Penglai Pavilion, it was the gap between Mo Yan and several craftsmen from the construction office discussing things.

Mo Yan turned his gaze and saw Qing Zhi approaching the courtyard gate, put down the drawings he was looking at in his hand, and walked quickly to the door to greet her.

"My sister went out early in the morning?" Mo Yan looked at Shang Qingzhi's gaze and said in a gentle tone.

Qingzhi didn't hide it, and told the whole story of her trip to Linde Hall with Baoshan.

Hearing that Lin Dedian had sent many more people to guard the door, Mo Yan's face sank, and his eyes changed slightly.

The other party's movements are fast!

It seems that he had long expected that after this wave of fire, the Lin De Hall would not be peaceful, so he took precautions and blocked the outside tightly first.

After all, He Yanzhi is still the master of the harem, and no one dares to offend him except for the empress.

Qing Zhi knew that he was in a bad mood as soon as she saw his expression, so she quickly changed her tone and looked at the craftsmen in the repair office and asked, "Are you discussing the damaged houses in the flower garden?" ”

Although those people belong to the people of the construction office, they are familiar with Angelica because they have dealt with the flower garden a lot of times.

Shicai listened to Mo Yan, as the most powerful person around the National Teacher, he spoke to Qingzhi politely, and called the other party "sister", so the people in the construction department naturally had a better attitude.

The person who spoke paused slightly, raised his eyes to look at her and said, "Steward Qingzhi, we also came to Penglai Pavilion early in the morning, leaving two people to check in the courtyard of the flower garden, and a few of us will sum up with Steward Mo." “

Mo Yan's face softened slightly, and he nodded: "When they come." I went to the place where you lived, and it happened that my sister had gone out early in the morning. ”

"The craftsmen came from the construction office, so I'll help you take a look at it first. Now that my sister is back, I still have to listen to what my sister means. ”

"Don't dare to be," Hearing him speak so politely, Qing Zhi hurriedly shook her head and said, "You are the steward of the National Teacher of Penglai Pavilion, and our flower garden belongs to the territory of Penglai Pavilion." ”

"This fire was an accident, but the final decision on the reconstruction will definitely pass you here. The decision is made by the National Teacher. ”

"I can't talk about ideas, I'll discuss it with you, it's true that everyone is collegial together."

Mo Yan beckoned: "Sister come and take a look." ”

Qing Zhi's eyes glanced at the main building of Penglai Pavilion not far away. It seemed that it was too quiet over there, and for some reason, she was a little uneasy in her heart, and she wanted to ask Mo Yan.

But a bunch of craftsmen were still waiting at the table in the courtyard. Angelica suppressed her emotions. I'm going to wait for the discussion to be over, and then I'll find a chance to ask Mo Yan well.

Bao Shan saw that Qing Zhi had something to do and couldn't get out for the time being, and thought that on the way to come just now, Qing Zhi mentioned a few times to go to the destroyed house in the flower garden to have a look, especially the one where Xiaoling lived.

Bao Shan thought about it for a while, then gently pulled her sleeve and said: "On the way back just now, I met a few attendants by the bridge who went to the courtyard of the flower garden to have a look. ”

"When I arrived at the hospital last night. I heard Uncle Yuan say that he had to follow the patrol team to count the losses of the flower garden in the morning, since my sister had something to discuss with the ink pipe. Why don't I go to our yard too? ”

"Let's see if we can help Uncle Yuan."

"It's hard for you to think thoughtfully, to be honest, you can't do anything here for the time being, I think it will take a while to discuss with Mo Yan, so it's up to you, hurry up and go to the flower garden to have a look."

Baoshan nodded slightly at Mo Yan, which was considered a salute, Mo Yan looked at her, his eyes moved slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

From the moment the two of them entered the courtyard, Mo Yan's eyes were always on Qing Zhi, and he didn't pay too much attention to the people who followed Qing Zhi.

This little episode shifted his focus to Baoshan's side, and Mo Yan's gaze quickly turned around Baoshan, with his own plans in his heart.

Qing Zhi looked at the back of Bao Shan's departure, and took in the little wave in Mo Yan's eyes just now.

However, in her opinion, several people in the flower garden are very familiar with Mo Yan, and it is rare to see a new face that is unfamiliar, so she pays special attention to it, and she feels the need to explain a few words.

Seeing her go away at this moment, he mentioned to Mo Yan by the way: "It's the first time you've seen her, right?" This is the man who came to my flower garden a few days ago, who is diligent and does not talk much. ”

"There are a lot of things that can help me."

Qingzhi's tone made people know that she was still very satisfied with Baoshan as soon as she heard it.

Qing Zhi's calculation is also obvious, because Xiaoling has already mostly stayed in the Lin De Palace, as for Gu Lan, the scruples in her heart have been carefully told to Baoshan in the forest just now.

Although Baoshan is also a person with a background, she is honest with Qingzhi and listens to her persuasion, in her opinion, she is a usable person.

I have to meet Mo Yan in the future, maybe I want to send her to run errands, and it's always right to make a good impression for her first.

Mo Yan guessed what she meant, and agreed: "These people and things are all decided by my sister, and my son is not in good health, so I don't dare to bother him with some trivial things." ”

Qing Zhi's heart beat faster, her breathing tightened, and she asked, "How was the National Teacher last night?" ”

Mo Yan's face suddenly sank, and he said helplessly: "Once the son has made up his mind, he has never listened to the words of others. "Don't hide it from my sister, I don't have any way at all, I obviously said that I can't go out, but he still insists on going his own way, hey"

Mo Yan's tone sounded very weak, he didn't have any fault with that person at all.

"It's all my responsibility, and I'm the first to blame for the accident in the flower garden."

"If you are more vigilant, you won't disturb the son, this is the place of our Penglai Pavilion, and the son is always worried about accidents."

Qing Zhi had an apologetic expression on her face, and said in a low voice: "Mo Yan, I really am"

"Sister, don't take the blame indiscriminately, it's none of your business, in the end, the person who set the fire is hateful, and I don't know if it was done by the same person who caught fire in the national treasury?"

Mo Yan said coldly.

Qing Zhi was surprised: "If it's really like what you said, what is that person's idea?!" ”

That's what I speculated. Does my sister believe that the fire started for no reason? Mo Yan paused and said, "No one will believe it, right?" ”

"What's more, the method of fire in the middle of the night is too similar."

"But we don't have to worry about that. His Majesty will send officials to investigate, and in a day or two at most, someone should come to my sister for questioning. ”

Mo Yan glanced sideways at several craftsmen in the construction office, they all listened attentively, and said to Qingzhi in a soothing tone with some comfort: "When the time comes, sister don't be afraid, just tell me what I know." ”

"I have nothing to fear, a few years in the palace. It's not the first time I've asked," Qing Zhi answered calmly, and then frowned. "I just don't know who is presiding over the investigation this time?"

"It's not clear, Your Majesty visited Gongzi in our main building and sent some medicinal materials, but I didn't mention it."

Qing Zhi thought for a moment. Still spoke: "Today I went to the Linde Hall with Baoshan. I was going to ask Xiaoling about it, and I also wanted to see how her injuries were."

Qing Zhi saw Mo Yan's gloomy expression like he was about to drip, and said with a cold back: "What's wrong with you?!" “

It took a lot of effort for Mo Yan to hold back the anger in his heart, shook his head and said, "It's okay, did my sister hear any news?" "That's right," Qing Zhi said calmly, "On the way back, I met the people around His Majesty, and I went to the Lin De Hall to ask the Emperor Guijun. As a result, he returned in vain and failed to enter the yard. "On the way back. I happened to see it with Baoshan. "If you talk about the inquiry, I'll tell you by the way."

Compared with the Lin De Palace, it is natural that the people in the main building of Penglai Pavilion and the flower garden are a community of interests, which Qingzhi knows well, and one is prosperous and one is lost.

It is necessary to explain the situation encountered outside to Mo Yanhe, especially in the current chaotic situation.

Shicai talked to Baoshan, Qing Zhi had already thought about it, and the meaning she revealed in and out of her words was exactly what Qing Zhi was thinking, if something really happened, the only person who could protect the flower garden was the national teacher on the side of the main building!

The most powerful ink words under the hands of the national teacher are the objects they have to rely on.

As a person in the same boat, Qingzhi is honest and honest, which is easier to increase his favorability.

She thought for a while and said, "Not only did we fail to go in, but even the people around His Majesty were blocked, and the emperor seemed to be determined to protect Xiaoling." ”

Qingzhi sighed with emotion: "That girl is so lucky. ”

"Safety must be worry-free, but I don't know if she was injured in the fire, and how she was injured!"

Mo Yan's face that had just eased was difficult to look at at this moment, and he took a few deep breaths before he said stiffly: "Don't mention those irrelevant people, my sister came here to look at the drawings." “

The previously interrupted discussion began again

Baoshan walked across the bridge and looked back at the courtyard of the main building of Penglai Pavilion, and the housekeeper Mo Yan just now left a deep impression on her.

Before he came earlier, Bao Shan had heard some rumors in the palace, and when he officially met the legendary "ink pipe matter", the closest person to the national teacher, his youth was completely beyond Bao Shan's expectations.

It is astonishing that such a person can be like a fish in water under the hands of that national teacher.

Although the time just now was a little hasty, it was also too late for Bao Shan to look at the young man with a "professional" eye.

It's not like the people she has heard of who have practiced kung fu to maintain their appearance, and their actual age is far greater than their visual age, and the other party is just a half-old child.

As for kung fu, if it is not visible, it will not be able to see clearly for a while.

Bao Shan thought about it for a while, and put aside the thoughts in her mind for the time being, she didn't forget what she had just said when she told Qing Zhi about leave.

If she stays in the flower garden for half the time, Qingzhi will be fine, but if she doesn't come, I will always tell her about the situation over there.

In the case of Qingzhi's departure, Uncle Yuan temporarily acted as half of the housekeeper because he was the oldest person in the flower garden, and as for the repair of the house, he himself was a craftsman in the flower garden, so he may be much more expert than Qing Zhi in this regard.

So in this sense, Uncle Yuan's appearance in the ruined courtyard of the flower garden is more appropriate than Qingzhi's stewardship.

He should have more to say to the craftsmen.

Bao Shan quickened his pace, and as he passed the forest outside the flower garden, he almost bumped into a man halfway through.

The place where they came across was a turn in the woods, which affected the view.

That person was naturally taken aback, and he was slightly relieved to see the palace maid's clothes on Baoshan's body clearly.

Nodding their heads to each other to say hello, Bao Shan also recognized that the person was a craftsman from the construction office, and he was still very young, and he was probably a person who had just entered the palace not long ago.

"Excuse me, are you from the Workshop?" Bao Shan has a judgment in his heart, if he wants to ask the other party a question, he still needs to ask one more question.

The man nodded and said, "Yes, you are from the flower garden, I came to Penglai Pavilion for the first time today, and the master took me to check your house here." ”

Bao Shan asked, "Is Master Yuan from the flower garden also in it?" "Yes, yes, there's another sister who is also from your flower garden, right?" "I'm going to help the master get some things, so let's go first."

Bao Shan got out of the way and followed the path all the way to the flower garden, but before he could enter, he heard a voice talking from inside.

Several voices are very familiar, except for Master Yuan, who is her own person in the flower garden, she has also heard the rest of them, and they are all working in the construction office.

When Bao Shan entered the door, the first person who greeted her was none other than Gu Lan.

She stood beside Master Yuan, and when she saw Baoshan entering the courtyard, she almost ran over at the speed of running.

When he arrived, he slowed down again, and Gu Lan said in a low voice: "Are you back?" Why don't you see Sister Qingzhi? “

Baoshan said in a flat tone: "On the way back, she first went to the main building of Penglai Pavilion, there are craftsmen waiting for the repair office there, she wants to discuss the rebuilding of the flower garden with the ink manager, I don't care about this, let me take a look first." "Baoshan girl," Uncle Yuan followed, but he didn't ask Qingzhi's whereabouts, and the first question was very direct, "Have you been to see Xiaoling?" How is she now? “

Bao Shan's gaze turned to the two people, and several craftsmen who had met with Xiaoling in the construction office behind them also surrounded them out of concern.

Being looked at by such a large group of people waiting for an answer, Bao Shan suddenly felt a sinking on his shoulders.

With no indication on her face, she said in a calm tone: "When I went with Steward Qingzhi, there were many guards outside the Lin De Palace, and we couldn't go in. "Baoshan, then, then they should always know, Xiaoling has not" Gu Lan asked.

Bao Shan glanced at her strangely and shook his head: "I haven't heard anything about Xiaoling, I only heard that after the emperor took her back to the Lin De Hall at night, she hadn't shown up until we went." "However, sister, you don't have to worry, just like Steward Qingzhi said, Lin De Hall is different from ours here, people have the best medicine, and they can also mobilize the imperial doctor at will." "Since the emperor is willing to take action, I think Xiaoling's life must be worry-free, and as for the injuries on his body, he should be able to recuperate for a few days."

When Baoshan spoke, his eyes locked on Gu Lan motionlessly, and he caught some kind of information from her eyes (to be continued......
