Chapter 534 Lichu
Let's leave tomorrow after offering incense and praying for blessings, even if Gu Bai and them lure people away tonight, if they are still suspicious, I am afraid that they will conduct an inventory of all the people who have incense in this temple, and it will be easy to find out to our heads at that time. ”
Even if you are not sure that it is them, if the other party knows that she also came to this temple to offer incense, at that time, in line with the principle of preferring to kill by mistake rather than let go, I am afraid that she will not let her go.
In short, it was better for her to leave this place of right and wrong very early.
Gu Chen didn't say what she would encounter here, she thought that there was really something good to perform, who knew that it was such an unknown dark secret.
The meaning of the words of the two people just now is clearly that they want to use the eleventh prince to win the emperor's attention, and then do something, it stands to reason that as the biological mother of the eleventh prince, this should be the thing she is most looking forward to, and she is most willing to do it, and she doesn't need others to tell her at all.
As a woman in the harem, they have always been the mother and the son, and from the moment they entered the palace, they always wanted to win the attention and favor of the emperor, and naturally they would spare no effort to fight for their son.
However, it can be learned from the man's words just now that it was an order from him to let the eleventh prince show his face in front of the emperor?
Why?
Also, as a palace concubine in the harem, who did she sneak out of the palace in such a dress to see?
It is not difficult to hear from her words that it was definitely not a man, so she slipped out not to see some adulterer?
She said she didn't know what he looked like, didn't she......
Before Qin Niang's thought fell, she was interrupted by a call.
"Miss, it's Gu Qing." Qiu Xue called.
She opened the window, Gu Qing stood outside the window, he saw the window door open, looked around, and saw that there was no one, so he got in through the window.
Qiu Xue glared at him and said in a low voice, "What are you doing when you come in?" ”
Although this wing room is already at the guest level, it can't be compared with the house of Gu Mansion after all, as soon as Gu Qing jumped in, the whole room suddenly became much narrower.
Gu Qing ignored her, just looked at Qin Niang and said respectfully: "Young lady, don't blame, my subordinates are also afraid that people outside will see it, so they made this decision." ”
When Qin Niang saw that he didn't hesitate to come in through the window, she knew that he must have something to say to her, so she didn't care about those false courtesies, so she said: "There is no need to say more politely, are you going to lure people away?" ”
Gu Qing nodded: "Gu Bai went to lure the person away, and led the person to the novice's residence, and there happened to be a novice who came out to fetch water, and the person probably thought that he was wrong." ”
He is still very clear about Gu Bai's light skills.
If he didn't want people to see half of his clothes, others wouldn't be able to see them, although he had made some movement just now in order to distract the man, but this temple was halfway up the mountain, surrounded by trees, and some wind and grass were blowing, which was normal.
"Why don't you just grab that one, don't you know everything if you ask him in handcuffs?" Qiu Xue said.
Gu Qing tilted his head and glanced at her, and said angrily: "Do you think that we are all like you, we know how to be rough and don't know how to use our brains?" ”
Qiu Xue was covered in blood and was angry for a while: "What's wrong with me? My method is the most direct and effective, catch the man, feed him some poison, and I will see how long he can carry it. ”
When the time comes, won't those people's plans be known?
Moreover, it can be seen that the man knows a lot of inside information.
"Now that we've arrested him, we're going to do whatever we want." Qin Niang glanced at her helplessly, stretched out her hand and tapped on her head, "You, if only everyone was as simple as you think, what if you were not afraid of death?" You've arrested people in a hurry now, aren't you startling the snake? ”
Besides, the other party now has no idea that they are the ones who eavesdropped on their conversation, but if they act rashly, then who knows if he has other companions in the shadows?
If people don't catch this, they will expose themselves without self-confession.
Qiu Xue also remembered such a layer after Qin Niang's reminder, so she rubbed her head, and said: "The slave and maid didn't think about it so much, and the slave and maid also wanted to get rid of these people as soon as possible, so as not to worry all day long." ”
God knows that as soon as she accompanies Qin Niang out of the house now, she will be scared and cautious, for fear that she will be bad again.
The one that slipped off last time, because they were careless, so they gave Miss Cousin the opportunity to poison, this time this baby finally sat firmly, if something went wrong again, even if Qin Niang didn't blame them, they couldn't forgive themselves.
"Okay, since we can't figure out what the other party's plan is, let's get up early and return to Beijing after the incense tomorrow." After Qin Niang finished speaking, she sat down on the bed, looking like she was about to rest early.
After Gu Qing finished reporting the matter, it was not good to stay in her house all the time, so he went through the window again.
Qiu Xue pursed her lips, walked to the window to close it, and then carried the only chair in the room to the bed, supported her head and closed her eyes to recuperate.
The next day, as Qin Niang expected, the man in black checked the pilgrims in the temple one by one, just to confirm again whether the movement in the night was really his own delusion.
Qin Niang thought, those people are really cautious enough.
However, although there were not many pilgrims at this time, there were still some nobles, so those people checked all night, but there was no result.
When Gu Qing reported to Qin Niang in the morning, she was about to bow to them.
It takes some stamina to be a thief these days, and you can do this kind of thing after looking for it all night.
"There are many monks in this temple, and there are pilgrims, if someone really overhears their speech, they can't be sure whether the other party is a monk in the temple, so they have checked the whole temple." Gu Qing said speechlessly.
If they hadn't hidden it well, they would have found it out.
Qin Niangmo.
She decided to leave as soon as she finished putting on a piece of incense, and stayed here any longer, she was afraid that those people would try to cause her trouble.
After breakfast, Qin Niang went to the main hall with the novice, and after putting incense on the immortal tablet enshrined by Gu and Yang's two families, she worshiped the Buddha in the temple with a pious face, and then went to say goodbye to the presiding abbot.
Originally, I had to stay for at least a few days to pray for blessings, and I would do a few morning and evening classes with these monks and copy some scriptures, but Qin Niang is now pregnant with Liujia, let alone copying scriptures, even if she gets up early in the morning like those monks, she can't do it.
Besides, everyone in the temple eats fasting, and with her current situation, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to eat fast every day.
Therefore, after she finished the incense, donated some sesame oil money, and helped Qiu Xue's hand down the mountain.
Just as she was about to step into the carriage, a woman's voice sounded from behind: "Young Lady Gu." ”
Qin Niang paused, turned around and looked behind her in surprise, and saw that Concubine Mi Niangniang had already changed out of the coarse linen clothes she wore last night, and put on a pink gauze skirt with excellent materials, and with that delicate makeup face, she was really fluttering.
"Courtiers, see Concubine Mi." Qin Niang blessed her body and saluted, "The body of the courtiers is not very convenient, and she can't make a big gift, and I hope that Concubine Mi will forgive her sins." ”
At this moment, the sun is gradually rising to noon, and according to Concubine Mi's well-maintained face, with a corner of a temple behind her, it really makes people feel that Guanyin has come to the world.
"Is Young Lady Gu going back to Beijing so early?" Concubine Mi asked with a smile, and she didn't seem to care that Qin Niang didn't give her a big salute, but just made a chance bump into her and asked more.
"Back to Concubine Mi Niangniang, the courtier's body is sinking day by day, so I can only go back to Beijing after the incense, and stay for a few more days, I'm afraid my husband won't allow it." As she spoke, she smiled helplessly.
Concubine Mi said: "Gu Shao is really in love with Mrs. Gu Shao, and he loves him well, but it's a pity, this palace still has to pray for His Majesty here for a few more days, and I can't go with Mrs. Gu Shao, otherwise, this palace will definitely go to Mrs. Gu Shao to play two games of chess at night." ”
Qin Niang said with a regretful face: "I knew that Concubine Mi was here, and I was so bored last night, I should have gone to find Concubine Mi to play two plates, so I started dark last night, and counted the tiles on the roof with the maid, which was really boring." ”
"Mrs. Gu didn't go out last night?" Concubine Mi seemed to be very surprised, "The moonlight last night was very good, I thought you went to the courtyard to admire the moon, if I knew that you were in the temple, I would definitely go to you with me." ”
Qin Niang touched her abdomen when she heard this, and said with a soft face: "Now that I have a child in my belly, at the gate of this mountain temple, where do I dare to walk around, if I bump into it, it is not even easy to find a doctor, so my husband Jun Qian told me not to go around." ”
Hearing this, Concubine Mi was stunned, and then laughed again: "Also, now Mrs. Gu's life is not alone. ”
She didn't know if she meant something else, but Qin Niang didn't want to stand here and fight with her, so she blessed herself and said goodbye to her again.
After Qiu Xue helped her into the carriage, she drove all the way to the capital.
Concubine Mi watched the improved carriage of Gu Mansion gradually disappear from sight, and she didn't move her steps for a long time, her mind kept thinking about whether what Qin Niang said just now was true or false.
However, Qin Niang didn't care about Concubine Mi's thoughts at all.
The carriage drove out of the range of Baoling Temple, Gu Qing appeared from the shadows, and after Qiu Xue gave him the place to drive, he got into the carriage.
"Miss, didn't Concubine Mi sneak out? How dare she call us in the open? Qiu Xue asked curiously.
Qin Niang slapped her head again angrily: "You, why don't you learn from Qiu Tao, use more brains, don't know how to be rough all day long." ”
Qiu Xue pursed her lips and said unconvinced: "I know martial arts, naturally I want to use the most direct method to make the other party submit, if the force is not good, it is not too late to use my brain." ”
Qin Niang was speechless, it was the first time she had heard someone lazy and stealing so justifiably.
