- But her spirit is obviously a little tense at the moment, so she sits very well. There were four maids standing beside her, but she did not call one of them to pinch her shoulders and beat her legs. Even the misty spring tip in her hand was only taken when it was handed by the servant just now, and then it was held in her hand all the time.

Her sleek nails were delicately smeared with brightly colored flower oil, which was supposed to add a little brightness to her hands, but at this moment, these pair of ten fingers seemed to be able to cut the white porcelain tea cup out of blood.

Looking at the young girl who knelt in front of her feet and wrapped a piece of floral cloth with a blue background around her head, and listened patiently to her finish the matter, a wave of anger rose in the eyes of the noble lady, who was accustomed to showing suppleness.

The lady suddenly slapped the tea cup in her hand on the table beside her, and regardless of Sven's identity, she slapped the tea in the cup more than half a foot high, and a few drops even splashed on the fair and delicate skin of one side of her cheek. The four maids standing behind them were all shocked, as if the tea was forcibly held on their hearts by their own masters.

After a while, the four of them were frightened, and one of them was the first to come back to his senses, and noticed that the table was full of water stains, and some drops had been splashed on the master's face, and the maid said softly: "Master, the slave and maid serve you to clean your face." As she spoke, she removed the gentle silk handkerchief from her waist that had been steamed with flowers and spices, and raised her fingers to wipe the little water stains from the noblewoman's face.

Unexpectedly, her hand holding the silk handkerchief was only halfway stretched out, and she was swept back by a noble lady's backhand.

"Stay on the side!" She was finally able to hold some self-cultivation foundations, and she didn't say the rolling word directly. There was a slight pause. She then snorted again: "You guys, all go and stay aside!" ”

"Yes..."

The four maids standing behind the noble lady looked at them with expressions of worry for their masters, but who knew what they actually thought, and they were afraid to avoid them.

The sound in the house was loud enough that the two guards standing at the door could of course hear it, and they immediately retreated away on their own and went to the front yard to wait. The people inside and outside the house were scattered, except for the noble lady and the woman with the cloth on her head.

The noblewoman sat in her chair, and her breath was already confused because of her anger. The chest can't help but rise and fall. It seems that he can't sit still.

The woman kneeling at her feet hung her head lower, and when she went out today, she caused a lot of trouble, not only delaying her return by nearly an hour. Let the master wait for so long in this humble courtyard. I almost exposed my hiding! Before getting the pardon. She didn't have the slightest intention of getting up.

After a moment of silence and annoyance, the noble lady calmed the fire burning in her heart a little, and looked at the woman kneeling at her feet. There was a lingering hint of hatred in his voice and said: "I didn't expect that there would be such a day when you would change the words of this palace without the permission of this palace." Qingxia, you have disappointed this palace too much! Do you know that by doing this, this has made Hongu's heart ache more than anger. ”

The palace people who have served Concubine De know that Concubine De has two palace maids who rely on her, and these two palace maids are almost close to each other, and there is no one else who can replace Concubine De's favor. As for the reason why Concubine De treated these two people so differently, the old lady in the palace who understood them well understood very well that they were indeed irreplaceable, because one of them walked in the palace for Concubine De, and the other was a pair of eyes that Concubine De placed outside the palace.

To be more precise, compared with Cuichun, the personal maid in the main palace, Concubine De should rely more on the Qingxia who walked outside the palace. Not for anything else, it seems that because Concubine De is holding something outside the palace, it is inconvenient for her to handle it directly, and in the distance between the palace and the outside of the palace, it is all up to this person to stabilize the long line.

Concubine De is the noble lady sitting in a private house in front of her, who is angry and has a broken demeanor.

And the young woman kneeling at her feet, motionless like a stone sculpture, was that Qingxia.

Three years ago, Qingxia was ordered by Concubine De to leave the palace to track someone's whereabouts and chase them to the north, thousands of miles away.

She was delayed there for nearly three years, during which time she rarely communicated with Kyoto. Even in the third year, she had a period of six months without hearing from her. However, Concubine De, who lived in the deep palace, did not slow down her trust in her at all, and when she figured out that she might be in big trouble, she sent someone to find a response.

Concubine De said to this personally: Even if the body is found, it must be transported back for burial.

The result of the search was, of course, that after all kinds of difficulties and dangers, Qingxia was finally rescued alive from there, and Concubine De paid another girl who had been trained for many years to go in.

But what Concubine De never expected was that she spent a lot of money to rescue Qingxia, and as soon as she came back, she did something against her, which made her shocked and angry.

Is it true that if a person is put out of control for too long, this person will inevitably lose some things that should be kept, but instead increase some thoughts that should not be there?

Concubine De thought so in her heart, looking at the woman in front of her who was kneeling with her head down, but her shoulders were obviously much thinner than before, she felt some pity in her heart, knowing that this girl she had personally raised from a child to such a big girl had suffered a lot in the three years she went to the north, but she had a lingering suspicion in her heart, and she bit her pity a little bit.

She suddenly felt itching in her heart, and coughed.

Hearing Concubine De's cough, the kneeling Qing Xia suddenly raised her head, a trace of worry from the bottom of her heart appeared in her eyes, and she said with some anxiety: "Master, if you are angry, sprinkle it on Qing Xia, let you fight, kick a few feet, just don't be angry with your own body!" ”

Concubine De couldn't help but be moved when she heard this, and for a while she felt that the servant in front of her, who had just returned after being away for three years, had not changed, but she was too careful. Somehow, the strange itch in her heart worsened, and the cough increased again.

Qing Xia looked at this scene, and her heart was even more anxious. Compared to the Cui Chun who walked in the palace, Qingxia is a person whose mouth is not decorated with oily decorations, and she is only good at taking practical actions.

So as soon as she gritted her teeth, she suddenly raised her hand. Pumped one side of his cheek!

"Smack!"

Although Qing Xia's slap was slapped on his face, he didn't have half of the force, and he only took it stiffly.

She followed someone to the Northlands, where she spent three years in that rough and rough place, and endured a lot of hardships. I was finally picked up about a month ago, and now I am much thinner than when I went three years ago, and my already not plump body is even more rugged.

Her already narrow cheeks were as if another layer had been cut off by a knife, and her cheekbones were a little protruding. Although she also ate a lot of nourishing food after coming back and raised her well for more than half a month, she still didn't see any more meat on her body. It's still a body like dry wood. Someone who met her three years ago. Looking at her now, I can't help but feel frightened.

The palm of the hand, which was also so thin that the bones protruded, slapped on such a thin face with almost only one skin left, and a bright red palm print quickly seeped out of the skin of Qing Xia's side face, which made people feel a little sad to look at.

"What are you doing here?" Looking at the woman kneeling in front of her feet, this slap herself. Concubine De was also slightly surprised in her heart. After a moment's pause. She waved her hand slightly. He said, "Get up." Since you are my person, you should not hurt yourself so lightly in the future. ”

Hearing the master's words of forgiveness, Qing Xia did not immediately get up according to his words. She hesitated a little, the master's love turned too quickly, and this forgiveness came a little suddenly.

Noticing her expression, Concubine De raised her eyebrows condescendingly and said, "Do you still need to wait for the palace to help you up?" ”

Qing Xia finally got rid of the suspicion in her heart and stood up according to her words. Her legs were a little paralyzed because she had been kneeling for a long time, and when she just stood up, her body couldn't stop staggering.

Concubine De's corner of her eyes also noticed this detail, and after being silent for a while, she ordered again: "You can find a place to sit down by yourself." ”

Qing Xia knew Concubine De's temper, so in the face of the master's gift, she did not push it away with false words, but directly agreed to her promise. However, of course, she could not be ignorant of the rules of her identity, so instead of sitting on the round chair with carved peony amphorae on the side of the house, she moved a low four-legged pine stool and sat in the corner of the room. When the master looked at her, he still held a condescending angle.

After Qingxia sat down, Concubine De suddenly sighed, and said softly in her voice: "I really can't imagine that there have been such powerful people hidden outside the Song Mansion. ”

At the mention of this, Qing Xia lowered his head again, and said with guilt in his voice: "This is all Qing Xia's negligence and dereliction of duty. ”

Concubine De's feelings at this time were much calmer than just now, and in the face of problems, her thinking was naturally more rational. Hearing Qing Xia accuse again, she didn't mean to be angry again, but said lightly: "The main responsibility for this matter does not lie with you, and it hasn't been long since you came back, so it's normal that there will be omissions in your understanding of that mansion." If you want to talk about the person who should be punished, it should be the girl of Bai Peach! She has been in that house for more than three years, and the palace also left her a few helpers, mixed in the house, and she was still careless! ”

Thinking of the shadow man who is very good at tracking and seems to be unable to get rid of once he sticks to it, Qingxia still has palpitations until now. Hearing that Concubine De was going to blame Bai Tao for the shadow man's matter, Bai Tao hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but explain: "Please forgive Qingxia for saying more." In Qing Xia's opinion, the shadow man's means are extremely high, in terms of tracking and concealment skills, his body is close to a ghost, but I don't know what his martial arts will be if he fights him directly. But based on this alone, it would not be difficult for him to avoid the white peach. ”

Concubine De heard the meaning of pleading for Bai Tao in Qingxia's words, if it weren't for the fact that she was in a calmer mood now, and was rationally thinking about today's unplanned little accident, she might have been restless again.

After frowning slightly and pondering for a moment, Concubine De slowly asked, "According to your words, since his tracking skills are so powerful, he may have followed you before you even knew it, but he didn't mean to do anything to you in advance?" ”

"I'm afraid so." Qing Xia nodded, she thought about the experience of being entangled by the shadow man for half an hour and couldn't get rid of it again, and then said: "If he had wanted to do it earlier, Qing Xia would probably be seriously injured if he didn't die today, because I'm still not sure when and where he tracked me." But he didn't do that, until I deliberately led him into a winding alleyway with a winding front and back, and a closed left and right end, and I stood face to face with him. He didn't even mean to draw his weapon. ”

At this point, before the meaning was finished, Qing Xia suddenly paused, because what she was about to say next might poke Concubine De's anger again.

After taking a deep breath, Qing Xia finally spoke again, and said in the most gentle tone possible: "This shadow man's purpose for doing this is obvious, if I don't find him today, then your plan, master, may be completely shattered today." ”

Qing Xia's voice just fell. Concubine De's brows jumped suddenly.

Among the servants beside Concubine De. I'm afraid that Qing Xia dared to say this to her so bluntly. Concubine De also knows that Qingxia is this character, and the rare thing is that Concubine De is willing to tolerate this girl. Even if another girl who was valued by Concubine De came to her, she couldn't get such leniency.

But just after that. Qing Xia's heart still couldn't help but beat with shock. Even if she knew that Concubine De would probably not blame her. She is still inevitably afraid of her master's anger.

Concubine De's treatment of Qingxia is really a little different. When she heard this, she just snorted coldly, and only said in a quiet voice: "Your speculation sounds very convincing at first glance, but Bengong suddenly thought of someone. When you think about his style of doing things, then what you said may not be true. ”

Just when Concubine De's words mentioned the word "one person", someone seemed to suddenly break into the front yard outside the hall, stirring up a noisy sound.

The dozen or so guards that Concubine De brought with her out of the palace this time were originally guarding the front yard, but the two people in the hall only heard that the sound of them preparing to draw the sword of the protector was unusually short, as if the handle of the knife had just left the leather sheath, and it was attacked by an external force in the extreme time and slapped back.

The knife could not be drawn, and the front yard soon resounded with the dull sound of fists hitting each other, and it seemed to be mixed with the sound of several bones breaking. It was not clear, but the chilling fighting sound did not last long, and finally ended in the muffled snort of several people, and the whole process was only fast enough for the last half of the sentence after Concubine De in the hall finished speaking.

Qing Xia Huo Ran stood up and took a step towards the door of the hall, intending to stop the rude offender.

Concubine De was still sitting on the chair, and when there was a noise in the front yard just now, her eyes only fluctuated slightly. She is a person close to the emperor, and she has even seen the big scene of a group of assassins attacking His Majesty many times, and her mind has already developed a certain amount of toughness. What's more, the person who came to attack today came in from the main entrance, not a sneak attack, and Concubine De was sitting in the main seat in the hall, and looking out of the door from the angle where she was, she saw some clues at a glance, and she had a certain number in her heart.

The guards of Concubine De in the front yard had all been subdued by the entourage brought by the uninvited guest within three moves, or their limbs were clamped, or they were directly knocked unconscious.

And this uninvited guest seems to be familiar with this kind of thing, and he doesn't need to take a second look at it at all, and only hands over all the obstacles in front of him to his subordinates. From the moment he crossed the threshold of the front yard gate, he strode straight as if there was a smooth road in front of him.

He really didn't get in the way.

Although there were only four followers he brought today, all of them were veterans with profound martial arts and experience in today's scene, he only needed to take his direction, and these four followers would naturally open the way for him.

An uninvited guest in a wide cloak strode up the stone straight road in the front yard of this small house, and quickly stepped over the threshold of the main hall of the main house, pausing slightly one step away from Qingxia.

Qing Xia was about to make a move-even if she had already indirectly seen from the retinue brought by this person that this person had a good background, she would swear to protect the lord to the death, but it was at this moment that she heard Concubine De's order: "Stop!" ”

Qing Xia swung her hand knife into the air, and when she was still an inch away from the neck of this uninvited guest, she couldn't help but be slightly stunned. It wasn't because she heard Concubine De's order to stop it in time, but because she had seen this person's face clearly with a single step and recognized his identity.

"Ahh I didn't expect this great man to come here suddenly in this way, Qing Xia's surprise was indescribable, and the strength of her kneeling down was as heavy as a hammer stone because of her loss of mind, and her knees hit the ground on the stone slab, making a dull "bang" sound.

But she didn't have time to feel the pain in her knees, and she only had time to shout as she lay on the ground: "Cheap maid to meet the Prime Minister!" ”

The knuckles of the knuckles were lifted up, and the bucket hat that was low on the head was lifted. Shi Jing's well-maintained face, which looked like a prime of life, was revealed. The red glow on his face, which had seen through his muscular physique, became more vivid in the movement along the way, which made the slight wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and mouth even more indistinguishable.

It's really hard for outsiders to see that he's five out of fifty by now. At first glance, when others looked at the prime minister, they all unconsciously wanted to be ten or eight years old, and only his guards would know how much health care his master was.

And only Shi Jing's henchmen and guards really understand that Master Shi cherishes his body so much, it is not as simple as just liking the way of cultivation. He wanted to live longer, after all, for the great cause he had been planning for many years.

Looking at the current emperor, he is in the prime of life. And there are a lot of talents. There are rookies pulling up, and the big talents are getting closer. Nowadays, from the perspective of financial and manpower, Nanzhao is obviously being absorbed and gathered by this emperor, and has the sign of being held tightly by him and let his mind make it. Wait by the side of such a king and cooperate with his governance. Shi Jing knew very well in his heart that his advantages were not enough to meet him head-on. And the biggest disadvantage of his own age with it. But it must be protected step by step.

Shi Jing sometimes had the illusion that maybe Wang Chi didn't need to use any means against him, just never let him have a chance to touch the military power. He will be able to drain him to death in phase. In another fifteen years, he will be seventy, perhaps from a poor background, and his health is not very good, he will not live to that age. But on the other hand, Wang Chi will be in his early fifties in another fifteen years, and with the physical background he has trained in his military career, it may be enough to be an emperor for another ten years.

Looking at the hundreds of years of history of the previous dynasty, there are many heroes who lost to Shouyuan and died of sudden illness on the road to the officialdom, and even on the road to the territory of the country. Although this kind of defeat may make onlookers feel a little unwilling, this is a fact that cannot be ignored.

Shi Jing, who can only be on the defensive at present, will not ignore this point, and the catastrophe of Shouyuan may not be solved.

Taking care of himself is the heaviest preparation he has always made for his Spring and Autumn Cause, and only by doing this step can he have enough energy to deal with the heavy business he faces every day, and at the same time take care of many extremely troublesome changes in private affairs.

Just like the incident that Concubine De made today, and asked him to clean up the aftermath, if he is not careful, this may become a big bad move that will set fire to himself.

He was almost buried alive by a pile of folds all day today. The emperor suddenly left the palace this afternoon, and after a long delay outside and did not see him back, the ministers of the six ministries put on his desk the folds handed over by dozens of counties in the three subordinate prefectures.

As the prime minister of one dynasty, the emperor gave Shi Jing the special power to read the folds first, but Shi Jing knew very well that the emperor's decentralization was half-baked, so don't think that in this way he has the opportunity to monopolize power and override the emperor.

When he exercised the power of "first reading", the small chapter that made the decision was definitely not there, and he could only use a blue pen to review it. And when the emperor returns, no matter how busy he is, he will quickly glance at the recitals that have been reviewed by the prime minister, and if he thinks it is inappropriate, he will have to find a reason to overhaul it. Such a potential rule has existed for more than ten years, and the ministers below have also been transparent in their hearts, and they do not regard this blue character as an iron law.

This is the only bit of real power that the emperor has in the civil service after quietly hollowing out the prime minister and losing his hands on the military.

In addition, if the prime minister first reads the folds and leaves the handwriting of the approval, instead of seconding the approval in a more fixed mode after the emperor's approval, some of the prime minister's words may leak some of his true intentions to the emperor.

This right to "read for the first time" is sometimes like a single-plank bridge in Shi Jing's view, and the scenery above is not good. And every time you walk by, you have to be very careful not to slip out of the canoe.

Therefore, Shi Jing, who had been busy at the desk for most of the day, already felt that his brain was a little cloudy, and he almost ignored a major event.

Fortunately, he had been away from the study where the important state books were kept for a while in the afternoon for a break from tea, and one of his guards took the opportunity to quietly approach and say goodbye, and he finally seized the opportunity to save the day.

During his office, the interval between being able to leave the Prime Minister's Mansion was very short, and he had already run two places in a row in half an hour to make the next arrangements. But for him, the most important place is still here with Concubine De.

"You retreat to a position where you can't hear the voices from here." Shi Jing casually raised his hand and waved away the woman who was kneeling in front of his feet, and when he did this, his gaze went straight forward. It had never been removed from the face of the lady in the main seat of the hall.

……

In the southeast corner of Yefu, there is a room, this room has no windows, only a door that is not too tall.

Mo Ye stayed in Ye Mansion for two days and only passed by this house once. She didn't notice anything special about the room at the time - the truth was that it looked too ordinary. Mo Ye thought that this was a place to put sundries, until Ye Nuonuo brought her here today, she knew that the house was dedicated to the spiritual seat of the ancestors of the Ye family, and this small room was the small ancestral hall of the Ye family that the servants occasionally mentioned.

Fortunately, Mo Ye herself had never seen what kind of pomp and circumstance the ancestral hall of the big family worshipping their ancestors was, so although she felt that this house was so small and had no windows. The light in the room must be extremely dim. It seems to be a bit rude, but other than that, she doesn't have much other feelings. However, when Ye Nuonuo called Xiaoya, he took the key and opened the door. When she was able to step into it. But she was momentarily stunned by the furnishings in the house.

Xiaoya put down the key and ran away. Mo Ye stood in front of the rows of spirit seats, and he was also stunned.

Nearly seventy percent of the floor of the cottage is occupied by three long tables, which are arranged in a vertical row like three steps in the center of the room. It is neatly filled with dozens of spirit cards. These cards are arranged in five straight rows, but each row has a different number of digits. In the first row of the highest table, there were only two bottles of spirit cards, which were written in crimson tree lacquer, which was very obvious at a glance.

"Ye ......" When Mo Ye was slightly distracted, she almost read out the name engraved on the spirit card, but fortunately she came back to her senses in time and closed her mouth.

Xiaoyu stood silently by the door, while Ye Nuonuo walked to Mo Ye's side. Seeing the doubts in Mo Ye's eyes, she didn't hide it, and said slowly and generously: "Here are the spiritual positions of the late ancestors of the Ye family for three generations, and in terms of arrangement, my father is the fourth generation, and I am the fifth generation." ”

Ye Nuonuo only explained simply, that is, let Mo Ye feel that the Ye family was also a big family. At the same time, she also wondered in her heart, why did the clan wither so badly in the fourth generation? But in this environment at the moment, she didn't want to ask much.

She only returned her gaze to the rows of spiritual seats on the three tables in front of her, and soon, her gaze was attracted by the portrait behind the spiritual seat of the great ancestor of the Ye family at the front.

On a wide and tall scroll, there is no background at all, only a feather is drawn. The paper, which was supposed to be white, gradually turned beige because it had been eroded by wind and dust for too long.

"Why did you just draw a feather?" Mo Ye finally couldn't help but ask.

"Actually, it's a very ordinary chicken feather." Ye Nuonuo smiled and said: "My ancestors made a fortune in business, and they first started making money by raising chickens. The great-grandfather of the Ye family thought of this and left behind the painting scroll, although my father has now changed to medicine, this painting must still be handed down. ”

Mo Ye nodded solemnly when he heard this.

After Ye Nuo paused, he gave Xiao Yu a look behind him.

Xiao Yu nodded, then raised her arm and pulled down a rope loop in the hidden place in the corner of the door.

There was a slight sound of rope rubbing against wood, and the bright sunlight outside the house reflected in the house, and it could be seen that in that light, some dust fell from the beams above his head, causing Mo Ye to look up naturally.

Then she saw four scrolls hanging in mid-air slowly fall from the beams of the room, but they only landed two feet above the spirit tablets on the table and stopped. The portrait unfolds in this position, and in the position where Mo Ye stands, she only needs to look up slightly to see the panorama on the painting axis, and it is estimated that adults only need to stand in her position.

The four portraits are three men and one woman, three old and one young, and the only young one is the only woman.

The three men in the four portraits are full-length portraits, but the only female portrait is a bust, and the other three are smeared in ink, and this only female portrait has delicate brushstrokes and clear lines, which resemble ......

Mo Ye suddenly thought of the carbon core pen that he had used not long ago, and it seemed that only this kind of pen could draw the kind of sharp and even lines in the painting.

On the whole, this portrait of a woman is clearly out of place with the other three portraits, not only because it depicts a woman, but also because of the style of painting...... It doesn't look very solemn.

The face and facial features of the woman in the painting are very delicately drawn, but they are only a bust, and the woman is draped in her hair at random, without any hairstyle. There is no embellishment of the headdress at all...... I don't know if it's a coincidence or some kind of providence, it fits with the appearance of Mo Ye's cloak now!

Mo Ye subconsciously glanced back at Ye Nuonuo.

Since these four portraits were lowered from the beam to the position in front of her, Ye Nuonuo didn't speak again, but when Mo Yegang turned around, she said in surprise: "Wow, standing together like this, it's really quite similar!" ”

When Mo Ye turned around, at the height of the portrait, it really looked like the person in the painting was standing side by side with her!

The people in the painting and the spiritual seats on the table all represent the elders of Ye Nuonuo's clan, so she doesn't think it's inappropriate to say so. However, Xiao Yu, who was standing by the door, looked at the scene in the house. Hearing Ye Nuonuo say that again, she couldn't help but shudder.

Xiao Yu said silently in her heart: "The ancestor of the Ye family is above, Xiao Yu is just serving the eldest lady to come here, and there is no offense." It was your descendants who were talking about you. It has absolutely nothing to do with the servant. If there is a demand. Please give the eldest lady a dream, don't ask the slave, thank you, thank you! ”

Mo Ye saw the fear in Xiao Yu's eyes. She couldn't help but feel a little hairy in her heart, but when she turned around and looked at the woman in the painting, she felt a slight heat in her heart, and she was not afraid of the person in the painting.

If you look into the eyes of the woman in the painting, if you look at it for a while, you will have the illusion of looking at yourself in a mirror.

After the slight heat in my heart, there was another strange feeling.

Mo Ye turned his head to look at Ye Nuonuo again, and listened to Ye Nuonuo say: "The characters depicted in these four paintings, according to my father, are relatives who have made great contributions to our Ye family, but they are not of the same generation. If you take a closer look, it should not be difficult to see that the old and new Cheng dù of the four paintings are different. ”

Although he heard Ye Nuonuo say this, Mo Ye did not look back to take a closer look.

Ye Nuonuo also knew that if he took Mo Ye to see this step, it would be almost the same.

She turned around again and gave Xiao Yu a look, and Xiao Yu, who was already waiting a little anxious, hurriedly went to pull another rope loop. In response to the pull of the rope, the four portraits began to slowly rise again.

Ye Nuonuo said slowly: "It is not easy to preserve the portrait, so it is usually put into the mezzanine on the beam of the house, and it is only put down for a short time on the first and fifteenth days of each month, and after the servants have checked the spider silk and dust, my father will burn incense and worship, and it will be collected again soon." Spices are placed in the mezzanine to protect the scroll from insects. ”

When Mo Ye heard this, she suddenly remembered that when she was in Xingjia Village in the past, her home there, on the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year every month, the master would also take her to burn incense and bow down in front of a portrait. It's just that it seems that the master has been worshipping the middle-aged man in the painting very sincerely, but when he left, he set a fire to it and burned it, only telling himself not to forget the appearance of the person in the painting, what does this mean?

After hesitating for a moment, Mo Ye asked softly: "Sister Nuonuo, is there a sacrifice to be made at the beginning of each month and in the middle of the month facing the spiritual position of the ancestors in the family?" ”

Ye Nuonuo nodded and said: "Generally, I just worship the spiritual position of my grandfather and parents so diligently, and then go up, I just sweep the tomb during the New Year's sacrifice, but our family is a bit special, so we all worship together, and I won't go into detail about why." ”

"Oh..."Mo Ye was a little distracted.

Seeing this, Ye Nuonuo couldn't help asking, "Does Sister Mo think there's something wrong?" ”

Mo Ye hurriedly shook his head, and after thinking about it, he said, "Maybe...... It's a different place. ”

"Also, I almost forgot that Sister Mo is not from Kyoto." Ye Nuonuo had a look on his face.

At this moment, Mo Ye suddenly felt a light breeze blowing from the direction of her head, and then she felt that her eyes were dark, and at the same time, she heard the exclamations of Ye Nuonuo and Xiao Yu in unison.

Because, the four portraits that were slowly rising and were about to be put into the collection box on the beams of the room, I don't know if it was the aging of the rope, one of the paintings suddenly fell from mid-air, and happened to gently and softly put on the top of Mo Ye's head, covering Mo Ye's face and the back of his head.

Mo Ye was slightly stunned, and was about to reach out to lift it.

Suddenly, I heard Ye Nuonuo say urgently: "Slow-"

Mo Ye's hand froze in a half-raised position to his shoulder, and he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" ”

"Huh..."Mo Ye heard Ye Nuonuo's doubts, and saw Ye She walk up to him and stop, and said, "I never knew that you could write on the back of this painting." ”

Mo Ye finally lifted the scroll covering his head.

Turning the direction of the painting, facing himself with the reverse side of Ye Nuonuo's visible painting, Mo Ye really saw that on the paper that should have been blank, several paragraphs with different contents were written in different handwriting, and at the end of each paragraph there were words that seemed to be signatures.

(To be continued......)
