Chapter 276: Going Out
"No, no. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info" Song Chen hurriedly waved his hand to deny, "With Master's life experience, it's not strange to be able to guess what is on your mind, right?" And even if he knows, he won't interfere with us, don't worry! β
In fact, during the half month that Su Miao was busy embroidering wedding dresses, Master also hinted that he shouldn't let her bother too much! Presumably it was the master, and his old man saw that Su Miao's mood was wrong earlier than him. Thinking of this, Song Chen blamed himself a little. Thankfully, he found out.
The two of them went out lightly this time, although they did not ride horses, but they only performed light skills, and they traveled faster than riding horses. In less than an hour, he had already entered the boundaries of Magnolia City.
The two of them landed in a small town, and Su Miao asked Song Chen: "Ah Chen, should we stay here for one night, buy a horse tomorrow and continue walking, or continue to rush now, and wait until dawn where to buy a horse?" β
"Let's stay one night!" This trip is mainly to take Su Miao out to relax, not necessarily in a hurry, "I still have to sleep at night, and I will rush during the day." β
That unknown town is on the way to Selangor, and although there are not many people on the streets at night, there are many inns with bright lights in front of them.
Song Chen and Su Miao chose a neat and simple-looking inn to live in, and the next day, after breakfast, they went out to buy horses. Although the town is small, the market is very busy, there are two or three horse sellers alone, Song Chen and Su Miao quickly selected two horses with good fat, strong body and stamina, and continued to rush to Chunlan City.
Because the purpose of this trip was clear, although they did not go around the clock in the process of going to Huolan City, they did not stop for a few days at will if they saw anything interesting along the way, although they should rest when they should rest, but they did not do anything other than hurrying.
So, on the fifth day, they had quietly arrived at Yinlan City. Song Chen and the others have thought about it, they came here to inquire about the news, Huolan City is the base camp of Jing Sijiao after all, and Duan Lianqing and Miao Luhou have seen them, if they settle in Huolan City, maybe they may live in an inn opened by Jing Sijiao's people if they are not careful, in case they accidentally find out their traces by Duan Lianqing, then it will not be so convenient to do things.
Anyway, there is not much distance from Yinlan City to Huolan City, Song Chen and the others can settle down in the inn of Yinlan City, and when they want to enter Huolan City, they can use light skills to go, and they don't need to ride horses, in this way, they can reduce the possibility of exposing their whereabouts.
After Song Chen and Su Miao chose a low-key inn to stay in Yinlan City, they first went to find a restaurant and had a good meal. Since Xiaobai didn't come with him this time, the meal he ordered was more than half less than before, and the time to eat was shortened a lot. After eating, I went back to the inn to rest for two teas, and by the way, I went to Huolan City to communicate.
After that, Song Chen and the others quietly entered Huolan City and went straight to the meeting hall of Duan Mansion.
The council hall was a meeting place for the Jingsi cultists, and from what they had seen on one of their previous visits, it was fitting to go there if they wanted to inquire into the affairs of their sect.
However, their trip was a failure.
Song Chen and Su Miao arrived at the sky above the council hall of Duan's mansion, but they saw that the room was empty and the door was closed, thinking that maybe Duan Yi didn't have any teaching affairs to communicate with the sect members today, or maybe they were a step too late, and they had already dispersed. This situation was also expected by Song Chen, and after finding that there was no one in the council hall, he and Su Miao then went to the study where Duan Yi often stayed before.
There was no one in the study either.
Song Chen and Su Miao glanced at each other on the roof, and Su Miao lowered her voice and asked, "Could it be that Duan Yi went out?" When we entered the city, we didn't see any major activities in the city, and now it's not a meal, so Duan Yi shouldn't take a nap at this time, right? β
"Looks like this trip is really the right one." If Duan Yi really had something to do, then nine times out of ten it was something about Jing Sijiao, and if it was closer, it would be nothing more than something related to the "Holy Maiden".
If he went out, how could he know where Duan Yi had gone?
"Go find Duan Lianqingβ" Song Chen and Su Miao glanced at each other and said in unison.
If Duan Yi went out and didn't take Duan Lianqing with him, Duan Lianqing, who was already dissatisfied and guarded against the former for listening too much to the words of the "Holy Maiden", would definitely not be convinced, and Duan Lianqing was a person who couldn't hide her words, and nine times out of ten she would find Miao Luhou to complain......
Thinking of this, Song Chen winked at Su Miao: "I don't know what happened to Duan Lianqing and Miao Luhou?" β
"What's the matter?" Su Miao was confused by Song Chen's words, and asked in a daze.
"Have you forgotten?" Song Chen reminded, "In Shilan City." Didn't Duan Lianqing say at that time that she wanted to find a candidate for her future husband so that she could come back and deal with Duan Yi? Later, didn't Miao Luhou say that instead of looking for someone else, it was better to consider him? β
"Oh yes!" Su Miao tried hard to recall the situation at that time, "There should be no problem...... If it was true that Duan Lianqing said at the time, Duan Yi's entire mind was focused on letting Jing Sijiao 'regain its glory', then there should be no time to care about her and Miao Luhou's affairs anymore. And isn't Miao Luhou's family said to be the richest family in the entire Sect? If Duan Yi wants to do anything, he won't easily offend the Miao family, right? β
"Hmm!" Song Chen also agreed with Su Miao's words, "Judging from the current situation, even if Duan Yi has the heart to oppose it, I'm afraid it won't help." Duan Lianqing was dissatisfied with Duan Yi's consistent focus on herself shifting to the 'Holy Maiden', and she already had rebellious thoughts in her heart, at this time, the more Duan Yi objected, the more Duan Lianqing probably had to do something with him......"
"Then let's hurry up and find Duan Lianqing's courtyard!" Su Miao urged.
Although Duan's mansion is large, it is actually not difficult to find Duan Lianqing's courtyard. Although the last time they came to Duan Mansion, they hadn't followed Duan Lianqing to her own courtyard, but when they were in Shilan City before, she had mentioned that because she liked roses, Duan Yi had specially built a rose garden for her. Later, because the "Holy Maiden" took a fancy to the Rose Garden, Duan Yi assigned this garden to the latter to live in, so that Duan Lianqing had nothing to do and not set foot in it.
If Duan Yi went out, that Duan Lianqing probably wouldn't let go of such a rare opportunity to enter the Rose Garden to provoke the initiator who had changed his irreplaceable position in his father's mind. As long as they find that Rose Garden, there is a seventy or eighty percent chance that they will find Duan Lianqing.
Of course, it's not impossible that something else will happen. Maybe Duan Yi didn't go out at all, or maybe Duan Yi went out, and Duan Lianqing also went out, and in the end, it is very likely that none of them were found. In terms of the current situation, what can be done is to look for it first and confirm that Duan Lianqing is not there.
Moreover, finding that Rose Garden had another purpose, and it was also another purpose for the two of them to come to Huolan City - to see who this "demon girl" in Duan Lianqing's mouth was.
Compared to the slight difficulty that it may be to find a person in a mansion, finding a garden in the mansion is simply effortless for Song Chen and Su Miao, who already have an advantage in the air.
The very beautiful rose garden in Duan Lianqing's mouth was quickly found.
Song Chen and Su Miao fell on the roof of the courtyard connected to this rose garden, which should be the residence of the "holy woman". However, they looked at the roof for a while, and then realized that something seemed to be wrong.
"Why are there so few people in this yard?" Su Miao first asked the question in her heart.
They sat on the roof for about a cup of tea, and during this time there were only two men who came in and out of the courtyard, one who only swept in the courtyard, and the other who came into the house, but came out in a short time, still holding a quilt, and they heard no other movement.
Looks like the saint has already moved out? Duan Lianqing also mentioned before that Duan Yi specially prepared a house for the Holy Maiden, but it was not repaired for a while. In that case, it seems that they may have to inquire about the location of the house again.
And if this saint had moved out, the dispute over the Rose Garden would not exist. In Duan Lianqing's case, it means that the things that others don't want will be thrown back to her, and it is not certain whether she will set foot in the Rose Garden again, and their original two plans may be frustrated.
In that case, let's honestly look for it from yard to yard! Although the Duan Mansion is large, with Song Chen and Su Miao's light skills, it is not a very difficult task to search for it.
"There's another way." Su Miao pointed in the direction of the rose garden and said to Song Chen, "I paid attention to it when I passed by, the rose is in full bloom right now, if I move a little bit and change the rose into a few uncommon colors, maybe it will cause an uproar, Duan Lianqing and that 'holy woman' are both people who love roses, maybe they can attract them all." Then we won't have to look for them one by one......"
"Can that seven-colored rose be changed right away?" Song Chen looked at Su Miao in surprise. Su Miao had changed a few plants when she was in King Jing's Mansion before, but they were all watered with medicinal juice when the flower bones had just grown, and these roses in front of her had already bloomed.
"No problem." Su Miao blinked, "I use another formula, but it can only last for a few days, and it will return to its original state after the effect of the medicine has passed......"
"A few days are enough." In this case, Song Chen also agreed with Su Miao's method.
"You go down and come down with a few tea bowls or something." Su Miao commanded Song Chen, took off the small burden he was carrying, and took out a few paper bags.
Song Chen was no longer surprised by the strange things that Su Miao could take out at any time, and flew away when he heard the words, and brought back a few small bowls and a pot of water after a while.
Su Miao quickly put different amounts of medicinal powder in a few small bowls, and gave a thumbs up to Song Chen while pouring water into it, she didn't even think of asking Song Chen to bring water, but he thought of it himself.
After adjusting the things, Su Miao and Song Chen each brought two to three small bowls, came to the Rose Garden, selected the roses in the most eye-catching position, and poured the medicinal juice into them one by one.
As soon as she finished doing this, Su Miao heard a movement in front of the door of the Rose Garden, and someone was coming towards the garden.
Song Chen and Su Miao dodged and jumped onto the roof of the verandah next to them. After a while, sure enough, four or five people entered the verandah and came to a pavilion next to the roses that Su Miao and the others had just poured their medicinal juice.
"Ah Chen!" After Su Miao saw the person coming clearly, she reached out and pulled Song Chen's sleeve to signal him to look, "Duan Lianqing......"
Isn't it Duan Lianqing, but the other one is Miao Luhou! They were followed by three servants, who put down the tea cups and snacks on their plates and left.
It wasn't until there were only the two of them left in the courtyard that Miao Luhou opened his mouth: "Lianqing, didn't you say that this rose garden is not rare?" "Since the saintess moved away, Duan Yi's grounding order for the Rose Garden no longer exists, but Duan Lianqing has also said angry words, saying that this thing is used by others, and she doesn't want it.
"I've thought about it, didn't this rose garden live in that 'witch'? I'm not a rarity, but this garden can't be wasted, right? Duan Lianqing looked left and right, "So I have another idea now, I plan to have people rebuild this garden, and replace all the roses with another batch of new ones, so that all the traces of that 'demon girl' will be removed!" β
After talking about her plan, Duan Lianqing smiled very heartily. She has thought carefully about it in the past few days, instead of keeping the traces of the demon girl's existence and not moving, let herself touch the thorn in her heart when she sees it, and she will not erase all of these completely, out of sight and out of mind, and if she doesn't leave it, she can plant a thorn for others.
"But...... Would your dad approve of you? Miao Luhou asked a little hesitantly, "Not long after the Holy Maiden moved away, you built a lot of construction in the place where she lived, I wonder if the sect leader will think that this is a practice that does not respect the Holy Maiden......"
"Afraid of what?" Duan Lianqing glanced at Miao Luhou, "Of course, if you face it head-on, my father will definitely disagree." But isn't he out right now? That's the time to do it! And the 'demon girl' also went out together, and there won't even be anyone to complain about at that time. When they returned, the construction had started, and even if my father tried his best to restore the original appearance, the flowers would not be the original flowers...... Rest assured! β
