Chapter 703: Saluting
Li Sui looked into her eyes, and only after a moment did he say: "I need you to help me lure out Ye Yuanxi, so that she can be more convinced that you are my weakness, so that she can relax her vigilance even more." As for the rest of the plan, I will tell you in detail tomorrow. ”
Ye Jinyu hesitated slightly, the word "weakness" made her heart jump again, and she vaguely responded yes.
"Then let's go, the task here needs to be solved." Li Sui patted her head and turned to walk back.
Ye Jinyu unconsciously touched his head, his mood was very complicated, and he was silent for a moment before realizing that they were not in the city, it was like a suburb.
But she remembered that before she woke up from her dream last time, she was still discussing her life experience with Yun Xiang in an inn, but who knew that this time she would change places again.
"Wait, wait for me." Ye Jinyu hurriedly caught up with Li Sui, in fact, the other party walked very slowly, and caught up in a few steps, "What task are we going to do?" ”
Li Sui explained: "That Yunxiang girl was taken away by the Yun family, but it is said that she escaped again on the way, and now she is missing. The person was lost at the border of Jinping County, and the county lieutenant Li was in charge of looking for someone, and it happened that we were all there, so he asked us to look for it together. ”
Ye Jinyu wrote down the task, and I don't know if she missed a dream in the middle, or if she came in a little late, this plot is developing too fast.
They went back to find Qi Guanyu and Jing Xingzhi, and Li Sui suggested that everyone find someone separately, he and Ye Jinyu were in a group, and the other two people were in a group, taking this opportunity to tie Ye Jinyu to their side.
Jing Xingzhi naturally had no opinion, Qi Guanyu frowned and was silent.
Ye Jinyu knew that Hou Ye was deliberate, so he immediately stood up and retorted, "Jinping County is not big or small, it is better for the four of us to find it separately, so the efficiency will be faster." ”
Qi Guanyu's frowning brows instantly stretched.
Li Sui's face was not very good, Ye Jinyu rushed before he could speak again, and said: "Then it's decided, it's important to find someone, let's go." ”
With that, he immediately turned around and left.
As she walked, she observed her surroundings, which were supposed to be the outskirts of Jinping County. I remember that Yun Xiang once said that her mother seemed to be from Jinping County, but she had no place to stay here, and they have been living in a broken temple since they returned here.
With Yun Xiang's dedication to her life experience, she will never leave here, and the most likely place for her to go is the ruined temple where she lived with her mother before her death.
It's just that after so many years, I don't know if the ruined temple still exists.
Ye Jinyu thought about it, and felt that it was better to go to the county office to find County Lieutenant Li first.
She released her mount and hurried back to the city, but met Li Song halfway through.
"Master Lee." Ye Jinyu saw that the other party was in a hurry, knowing that he was also very anxious to find someone, and the two of them did not get off the horse to salute when they met, Ye Jinyu arched his hand and said: "How many broken temples are there in Jinping County?" A ruined temple that existed about a decade ago. ”
"This official has only been in office here for three years, and he doesn't know much about what happened more than ten years ago." Li Song was puzzled: "Why did the girl inquire about this?" ”
Ye Jinyu Guan'er, "Of course, it's to find Miss Yunxiang, she was in Jinping County when she was a child, and she lived in a broken temple with her mother. ”
Li Song's eyes lit up, and he instantly understood what she meant, turned his horse's head and said, "This official will go back to the county government to track down the location of the broken temple." ”
"I'm with you." Ye Jinyu rode up and followed.
When Li Song returned to the county office, he asked someone to bring a total of five county chronicles for the past 15 years, and Ye Jinyu and he searched for the geographical changes in the county recorded on them.
Ye Jinyu still didn't quite adapt to the way of reading ancient books, she struggled to read it, and she didn't know how long it took, she was dizzy and dizzy, and finally circled a broken temple in the city that seemed to match the conditions.
On the other side, Li Song's efficiency is much higher than her, and there are a total of three broken temples in and out of the city, which are four together.
Li Song called his subordinates to rush to the two broken temples outside the city, and he and Ye Jinyu were in charge of the broken temples in the city.
After coming out of the county office, Ye Jinyu and Li Song went to the ruined temple in the south of the city separately.
This temple was still a ruined temple that had been abandoned for ten years eight years ago, but half a year ago, a scholarly family in the south of the city enshrined the gods and Buddhas, so they funded the rebuilding of the temple, and specially invited a respected master to sit in the temple.
Now after eight years, the incense in the temple continues, and the monks in the temple have increased from a few to more than 20.
Ye Jinyu jumped off the horse, looking at the simple and solemn temple in front of him, with the sound of wooden fish and chanting echoing in his ears, the temple pilgrims were endless, and the delicate and mellow smell of sandalwood was diffused around, and there was a sense of calm and tranquility in the bustle.
The temple is not big, there are only two temples before and after, and on both sides are the wings of the disciples in the temple and the place for practicing and chanting.
Ye Jinyu walked around for a long time, and finally found in the hall of merit at the back that there were tablets for many people here. Inside, there was a little novice, and when he saw her appear, he slowly stepped forward and folded his hands in salute.
"Amitabha, I don't know if the female benefactor is here to worship the ancestors of the family, or to worship?"
Ye Jinyu choked her head, why didn't she ask Yun Xiang for her mother's name in the first place.
"I'm here to look for my ancestors, dare to ask if this Hall of Merit existed eight years ago?" Ye Jinyu asked.
Xiao Shami put one hand in front of him, nodded and replied: "Yes, since the temple was rebuilt, there is a hall of merit here. ”
"Then dare to ask the little master, who was the first deceased to be enshrined here eight years ago?" Ye Jinyu asked.
Xiao Shami looked back at the tablets on the incense case, and only then turned around and said, "The benefactor is a deceased master named Xiang Mei'er. ”
Hearing that this name is a woman, maybe it really makes her blind cat meet a dead mouse, and she will find the right place at once.
"Dare to ask the little master, has anyone come to worship this Xiang Mei'er in the past two days?" Ye Jinyu asked again.
As the little novice was about to answer, a woman with a basket slowly walked out of the main hall, and the woman approached and saluted him. Dream Island Library
Xiao Shami also folded his hands, turned to look at Ye Jinyu, and said, "Female donor, this donor is the deceased master who came to worship." ”
When the words landed, Ye Jinyu and the woman both looked at each other in surprise.
"This sister ......" As soon as Ye Jinyu spoke, the woman withdrew her gaze and strode away.
Ye Jinyu frowned and immediately chased after him.
The woman rushed out of the temple as if she were fleeing from a flood of prey. Fortunately, Ye Jinyu was fast-paced, and finally stopped people outside the temple gate. In the afterglow, I caught a glimpse of the silk handkerchief pinned to her waist, and the deposit saw that the edge of the plain handkerchief was embroidered with a silver auspicious cloud pattern.
She remembered that the silk handkerchief pinned to Yun Xiang's waist was exactly the same as this one, and it seemed that she was not looking for the wrong person.
"I take the liberty of asking, is my sister a member of the Yun family in Tengluo City?" Ye Jinyu saluted and asked.
The woman's pupils trembled visibly because of her words, but she denied it: "The girl has recognized the wrong person." ”
The woman was about to bypass her and leave, but Ye Jinyu turned sideways slightly to block her way again, and arched her hand: "I have seen this silk handkerchief on my sister's body in a friend, and she told me that this is a silk handkerchief unique to the Yun family. ”
The woman looked at her in astonishment, wanting to ask something, but she was too reluctant to speak.
"Sister Yunxiang disappeared on the way back to Yun's house, I'm looking for her everywhere, my sister is also from the Yun family, aren't you worried about Sister Yunxiang's safety?" Ye Jinyu wrinkled his brows, his face was full of worry, and his tone became more and more anxious: "The person who my sister went to worship just now is Sister Yunxiang's biological mother, and the fact that you are here means that you have feelings for Sister Yunxiang, right?" ”
The woman heard that she knew so much about Yunxiang's affairs, and her guard gradually relaxed, "Don't hide it from the girl, I did come from the Yun family, and I took my girl back on the order of my wife." But the girl's obsession is too deep, and now she runs away by herself, and I also have a headache. ”
Ye Jinyu was a little surprised, "Mrs. Yun? She also knows Yunxiang's sister's biological mother? ”
The woman nodded, but did not explain much.
"Then do you know Yunxiang's sister's background?" Ye Jinyu chased" asked, seeing that the woman had the intention of avoiding it, she immediately added: "You should know why Sister Yunxiang is here, since you are still thinking about her biological mother, you don't want her to continue to worry about this matter, right?" ”
"This ...... I really don't know. The woman said embarrassedly.
"Then do you know the identity of the Xiang Mei'er inside?" Ye Jinyu asked instead.
The woman shook her head, "I came to worship the girl's birth mother on behalf of our wife." ”
Ye Jinyu pursed her lips, it seemed that her previous guess was correct.
"Sister, take the liberty of asking, can you let me see your wife?" Ye Jinyu surrendered his request.
Yun Xiang's heart disease is her life experience, if she can find out this first, she will naturally not run around again. As for finding someone, leave it to County Lieutenant Li and them.
Ye Jinyu thought of a countermeasure, and was about to see the woman's reaction, when he suddenly felt a sense of falling from his body. The feeling was so familiar to her that she immediately woke up from her dream.
The sky was shining outside, and when Ling Zhao came over to serve and wash, Yulian also followed in.
Ye Jinyu sent Ling Zhao out, and Yulian stood not far away uneasily, pulling her sleeves.
"Miaoyin is my good sister, I will definitely go to save her, don't worry too much." Ye Jinyu saw that she had been worried, paused, and continued: "I promise you......"
A knock on the door suddenly sounded at this moment, and Ling Zhao said outside, "Girl, Master Hou is here." ”
Ye Jinyu and Yulian were both shocked, but Yulian was afraid that her appearance here would arouse Hou Ye's suspicions, but Ye Jinyu was worried, Hou Ye was not afraid of being seen by Ye Yuanxi's people when he came over at this time?
"Girl......"
Yulian had just opened her mouth nervously, and Ye Jinyu waved her hand to interrupt her, "Don't panic, you will go out when the Hou Ye comes in later." ”
Yulian tightened her sleeve again and bit her lip.
"Please come in." After Ye Jinyu finished speaking, he hurriedly tidied up his clothes.
Li Sui pushed the door in, and there were still people in the Buddha house after the screen, and he didn't take a closer look. Yulian trembled and saluted, then held her breath and withdrew.
"See Master Hou." Ye Jinyu saluted the man, and when he heard that the door of the house was closed, he couldn't help but ask, "How did you come here?" ”
Li Sui knew what she was worried about, and Wan'er said: "Jin Yu doesn't know, there is a secret door between Shen Pavilion and Fu Garden, and because it is not usually used, it is blocked by a rockery." Unexpectedly, it came in handy at this time. ”
Ye Jinyu was relieved and hurriedly invited the other party to take a seat.
At this time, in Ming Shuyuan, Qingyun hurriedly ran into the bedroom, Ye Yuanxi was sitting in front of the dresser to make up, and saw Qingyun's abnormal expression through the rhombic glasses, so he waved his hand to send out the people who were waiting around him.
Qingyun waited for the door to be closed, and then walked to the girl's side and reported in a low voice: "The slave maid just got the news, and King An rushed over from the capital yesterday to congratulate Hou Ye on his birthday. ”
Ye Yuanxi stared and looked at the person next to him from the mirror, "I came here yesterday, why is there news now?" ”
"I'm afraid that Master Hou was on guard against us and deliberately concealed the news." Qingyun said with annoyance: "Yesterday, we shouldn't have called ourselves sick and didn't show up, if we ......"
"Qingyun, are you questioning me?" Ye Yuanxi interrupted her unhappily.
Qingyun reacted that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly knelt down to admit his mistake: "The slave didn't mean that, but now that the people have been arrested, the plan has begun, but a prince has just appeared." In case there is something wrong in the middle, but it is discovered by the prince, our situation will only be more dangerous. ”
"Did the maid next to Miss Qin go to find Miss Ye?" Ye Yuanxi's hand hidden in his sleeve tightly squeezed a bead hairpin.
