Chapter 273: Conscience

The blue sky is like washing, high and clear.

Inside the house, on the small couch near the window, Qingyun is embroidering needlework.

The magpie held the fan and gently fanned it, and the pattern of the beauty sniffing the plum on it was faintly visible.

The bead curtain shook, and Zi Jian came in and said, "Girl, the cousin is here." ”

Qingyun held the embroidery needle in her hand, and her head was not raised.

Zi Jian retreated.

Soon, Zhou Ziting walked in with the maid, and saw Qingyun embroidering needles and threads, and it was a bright red satin, embroidered with mandarin ducks, vivid.

It's like embroidering a hijab?

Zhou Ziting thought of the day Qingyun got married, which was blown to the ground by the chaotic wind, and finally blew through the hijab.

Although in the end I got married, the hijab and the wedding dress did not match in the end.

Zhou Ziting smiled, "The third cousin re-embroidered the hijab, and the wedding dress was also re-embroidered?" ”

Hearing Zhou Ziting ask, the magpie immediately shook her head at her, asking her not to mention it, the girl didn't even want to embroider the hijab, let her embroider the wedding dress, isn't that a dream?

She had prepared the embroidered bandage a few days ago, and to this day, the girl was so bored that she would not touch the needle and thread if she had anything else to do.

Qingyun put the embroidered bandage at ease, and said with a smile, "The hijab will break, I accidentally let the wind blow, I should re-embroider, the wedding dress is dirty, it is because the sedan chair was returned, it is not my fault, if the Zhennan Hou Mansion dislikes the wedding dress is dirty, you can send another set, I will not embroider the wedding dress again." ”

According to her original intention, she didn't want to embroider the hijab.

In all fairness, getting married in such bad weather and suffering a lot of bumps, but when she finally arrived at Zhennan Mansion, Young Master Chu lost her and ran away on horseback.

Although he said that he would marry again one day, this is obviously a toss-up, and it is uncomfortable for anyone to change their hearts.

That's it, though. She still envies Qingyun.

"Young Master Chu said in public, it is enough to have you in this life, and he will never accept a concubine, and he swears sincerely. The whole of Kyoto can help you testify, so it was not his willingness to leave Beijing by chance, and the third cousin was still angry with him? Zhou Ziting looked at Qingyun's eyes with envy.

Qingyun's face flushed slightly. She played with the embroidered handkerchief in her hand, changed the subject, and said, "Cousin Ziting came to me, but is there something?" ”

Zhou Ziting shook her head, "It's nothing, it's just idle and boring, walking around, and I came to you." ”

As she spoke, she sighed and said. "Since the day the Hou Mansion bribed the Taoist priest to cheat was poked out, I haven't seen my grandmother laugh, most of the day is in the Buddha's worship, the five cousins and they all stay in the house and don't come out, the Hou Mansion seems to be lifeless all of a sudden, I have been in the Hou Mansion for more than three years, and it is the first time I have seen this, and I feel uncomfortable."

"Especially those who have done something wrong and have not repented. Instead, he pushed the fault on others, and his uncle was upright, how he endured the ridicule of those people in Kyoto, and he came up with the idea of resigning and leaving Beijing. Although the emperor did not agree, my uncle has not gone out for two days, and I went to look for him in the study this morning, but my uncle did not see my ....... ”

Zhou Ziting's voice was a little choked, she looked at Qingyun and said, "Third cousin." I know you have always had a lot of ideas, so you can't bear to ruin the reputation of the Hou Mansion? ”

She said that it was nothing, she thought it was really fine, and she was here to be a lobbyist.

However, the eldest lady should not be able to buy her, and the old lady will not let her be this lobbyist, it seems that she really hopes that the Hou Mansion is good.

It's just that people are good at being bullied, Ma is good at being ridden, and she still talks, so she comes to her.

Qingyun's eyes were lowered, and she hid the light at the bottom of her eyes and said, "Cousin Ziting thinks too highly of me, my grandmother and father eat more salt than I eat, they don't have anything to do, what can I do?" If I had a good idea, would I hide it and not say it, the reputation of the Hou Mansion would be ruined, and it would not be good for me. ”

Qingyun said, Zhou Ziting looked at her without blinking, she knew that Qingyun was telling the truth, but she still couldn't help but say, "Is there really no way at all?" ”

Qingyun shrugged her shoulders and said powerlessly, "Unless the Hou Mansion really has a queen." ”

The whole of Kyoto knows that the Hou Mansion bribed the Taoist priest to say that the Hou Mansion will produce a queen in the future, which is a fraud, and the Hou Mansion really has a queen, and what the Taoist priest said is true, who will laugh at the Hou Mansion, it is too late.

Zhou Ziting smiled bitterly when she heard this, the reputation of the Hou Mansion was not ruined in the past, and the hope of a queen in the Hou Mansion was slim, not to mention that the reputation is like this now?

"Is the Hou Mansion really hopeless?" Zhou Ziting's voice was full of hope.

It's useless to pray, she is not a bodhisattva who saves suffering, she doesn't have the ability to hold those princes and county kings who hope to compete for the crown prince to get Mu Qingrou and them.

Qingyun picked up the blue and white porcelain teacup, lifted the lid of the teacup, gently fiddled with it, and said, "I remember that the Jiang family helped the Hou Mansion restore the title, they said that the Hou Mansion was demoted because of the Jiang family, and the Jiang family should help restore the title, and now that they have made a big disaster, they will have the consciousness to try their best to restore the reputation of the Hou Mansion." ”

Qingyun looked at her optimistic about the eldest lady.

Zhou Ziting scoffed, "Third cousin, the Hou Mansion has been plagued like this, are you still in the mood to laugh, I don't know if some people can only talk about it?" Such a big thing, in addition to pushing the fault on others, is to let a maid come out to take the blame, almost fainting grandmother, what else did they do? Scolding? If crying can solve the problem, the Hou Mansion can be drowned in tears! ”

Zhou Ziting's anger was undisguised.

Qingyun drank tea for a long time and said with a smile, "What's there to be angry about?" I'm angry, and they're more comfortable than anyone else. Think about how many mistakes they have made in the past two months, how many times has grandmother been angry, but which time is not thunder and rain, big things into small things, cane to kill Fang's mother, and can also make a fake death to fool people, and break into such a big disaster, and finally die is just an inconspicuous little maid, you have to blame her, she is more wronged than anyone else, the family rules of the Hou Mansion are useful to us, for the eldest lady, they are just a few pieces of waste paper...... ”

Qingyun was talking, and the green outside ran in with a smoke.

ran in a hurry, and knocked the purple note down, and the purple note was in pain.

"I'm sorry, Sister Zijian, I'm in a hurry," Lu'er said quickly.

The conversation was suddenly interrupted, Qingyun was a little angry, and rarely scolded Lu'er, "What's the urgency." In such a hurry? ”

Lu'er stepped forward and hurriedly said, "In the future, there will be no more people who will say that the Hou Mansion is cheating!" ”

Qingyun was stunned when she heard this, and Zhou Ziting asked. "Why?"

Lu'er chuckled and said, "Because what the Taoist priest said is true." ”

Qingyun and Zhou Ziting looked at each other, both confused.

Qingying went to poke Lu'er's head, and she didn't have a good airway. "You usually make us happy, but you dare to make the girl happy, Mother Fang bribed the Taoist priest to come to the Hou Mansion to cheat, the Taoist priest himself admitted it, how can it be true?"

Qingying used some strength, and Lu'er's head hurt when she was poked, she hid far away, rubbed her head, and looked at Qingyun pitifully and aggrievedly, "What the slave said is true." ”

Qingyun raised her eyebrows. "Speak carefully." ”

Lu'er didn't dare to delay, so she told Qingyun what she had heard.

Here's the thing.

The Taoist priest was arrested and sent to the Criminal Department, and confessed that Fang's mother had bribed him to come to the Hou Mansion to deceive, saying that the Hou Mansion would produce a queen in the future.

Word of this soon spread throughout Kyoto.

Although two days have passed, the number of people discussing this matter has not decreased, but also increased.

Even those noble ladies who went to Qixia Temple to worship incense met. They all chatted, after all, many people knew about Mu Qingrou's incense in Qixia Temple.

Several noble ladies were also angry, thinking that the Hou Mansion was doing that. It's a little dirty.

No, chatting and chatting, the little monk who said that Qingyun had drawn the sign of the two poles that day heard it.

He tilted his head and looked at the noble lady and said, "Are you talking about the fact that there will be a queen in the Anding Marquis Mansion?" ”

The noble lady smiled, "It's the Marquis of Anding's Mansion." ”

Then, the maid who followed her. He stood up and told the Marquis of Anding about the bribery of Taoist priests and deception.

The little monk was a little confused, "No, there will indeed be a queen in the Anding Marquis Mansion, the Taoist priest is not wrong." ”

The smile on the corner of the little girl's mouth was still there, and when she heard the words of the little monk, she suddenly stiffened, and she was a little angry at the words of the little monk, she said, "Everyone knows about the purchase of the Taoist priest by the Marquis of Anding, and the Taoist priest himself admits that he not only cheated, but he also almost killed Princess Ning, but you said that he was right in telling fortunes, were you also bought by the Marquis of Anding?!" ”

The little maid's mouth is very sharp, and the little monk who said it has a red face and red ears.

He hurriedly said, "The monks don't speak, and the Marquis of Anding Mansion will indeed produce a queen, this is what Uncle Shi said, I was still very surprised at the time, Uncle Shi said that the mandate of heaven cannot be violated." ”

The sign of the two poles, that is destined to be the queen.

However, the third girl Mu was married to the young master Chu of the Hou Mansion in Zhennan, and he questioned whether he had made a mistake, and the master laughed and said that the destiny of heaven could not be violated.

He remembered it clearly, how could he be mistaken?

and on the day of Mu San's wedding, the wind was raging, which made him believe in Uncle Shi's words.

The little maid was very angry, and said angrily, "Your uncle must have been bought by the Marquis of Anding!" ”

The little monk was angry, "Don't talk about my uncle like that!" ”

The little maid snorted heavily, "I've done everything, and I'm not allowed to be said?!" ”

The little monk is very stubborn, how is the little girl's opponent, but he can only sulk.

However, a spectator on the side smiled and said, "Little monk, who is your uncle, why don't you let him come out to confront him?" ”

The little monk said, "My uncle is Master Huijing, he is in retreat, and he doesn't see outsiders. ”

The little girl's face turned red, and she couldn't wait to burrow into the ground, what did she just say, she said that Master Huijing was bought by the Marquis of Anding!

The other pilgrims were dumbfounded, and then looked at each other in disbelief.

What kind of person is Master Huijing, he said that there will be a queen in the Marquis of Anding's Mansion, so can it be fake?

The most surprised was the noble lady, she wrinkled her eyebrows and said, "Master Huijing really said that there would be a queen in the Anding Marquis Mansion?" ”

The little monk was a little angry, he looked at the majestic Buddha statue, folded his hands, and chanted the Buddha's name, "In front of the Buddha, who dares to lie?" Liars will go to hell with their tongues plucked. ”

In fact, the little monk doesn't have to swear, everyone is just stunned by what he said, and they can't turn around for a while, so they will question him.

When you think about it, you know that what he said is true.

No monk in Qixia Temple has the courage to talk about Master Huijing, and there are several monks on the side, but they haven't stopped him.

If the Marquis of Anding Mansion does not have a queen in the future, the reputation of Qixia Temple and Master Huijing will be damaged, which is not a trivial matter.

Then, everyone whispered, "Could it be that Taoist priest really has some ability to calculate that there will be a queen in the Anding Marquis Mansion?" ”

"Either you have the ability, or the blind cat has run into a dead mouse."

"Oh, you say that Taoist priest can't think about it, obviously he can make a living by his talent, but he has to rely on selling his conscience, and the money earned by selling his conscience, he also uses peace of mind?"

"Who knows, there are a lot of weirdos in this world."

“……。”

Gradually, Master Huijing's words that there would be a queen in the Marquis of Anding spread from Qixia Temple, and soon spread all over the streets and alleys.

Then, it was transmitted to the Hou Mansion.

When he heard the news from Manager Zhou, Master Hou was dumbfounded.

After the blinding, I started to have a headache again.

It's not that he, the father, despises his daughter, his unmarried daughters really can't be queens.

Isn't this a scourge of the Hou Mansion and a scourge of the Great Jin Dynasty?

If it is Qingyun, he will think that it is the blessing of Dajin, but it is ......

Thinking of something, Hou Ye's body was suddenly stunned, as if he had been struck by lightning.

His eyes were shocked in disbelief.

It must be that he thinks too much, how can the eldest young master of Chu and the eldest prince be twins, the queen gave birth to a dragon and phoenix fetus, it is impossible for the Marquis of Zhennan to do the thing of stealing the dragon and turning the phoenix!

Hou Ye's face was so shocked that he startled Manager Zhou, and hurriedly called, "Master Hou? ”

After shouting several times, Hou Ye came back to his senses, he shook his head, and threw away those thoughts that should not have been.

His expression was as good as ever, and he said, "The reputation of the Hou Mansion has been restored, which is a gratifying thing. ”

It's not just gratifying, it's just crazy with joy.

The eldest lady was still on the bed, listening to the maid's lecture about this, her illness was half cured, and her whole person was radiant, a hundred times happier than when the Taoist priest said that.

After all, even she didn't believe what the Taoist priest said, so how could other people believe it?

But now it's different, Master Huijing said that Qingrou will be the queen, can this be fake?

The maid was on the side, and Fu said, "Master Huijing said that the five girls will be queens, and there will be no fake, that Taoist priest is really hateful, and the five girls have been wronged for nothing, and they have cried for two whole days, and their eyes are swollen like walnuts." ”

The eldest lady is also very angry, but when people are happy, their temper is always extraordinarily small.

"The Taoist priest is very hateful, but it can be regarded as meritorious, if he doesn't make a big deal about it, how can Master Huijing say that, Qingrou can be regarded as a blessing in disguise," the eldest lady smiled.

Listening to Lu'er, pour beans, Qingyun and Zhou Ziting were dumbfounded.

Zhou Ziting swallowed her saliva, looked at Qingyun, and asked, "Do you believe that the fifth sister will be the queen?" (To be continued.) )
