Qi Ning sent Mrs. Tian to the Tian house, and after Mrs. Tian got out of the car, Qi Ning did not get out of the car, and said with a smile: "Madame go back and rest first, don't think about it, I will borrow this carriage and go back first." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Mrs. Tian hurriedly ordered: "Dali, you send the Hou Ye back to the house." ”

The coachman said yes and was about to leave, when Mrs. Tian hurriedly said, "Wait a minute." Untied the robe on his body and sent it over, Qi Ning took it, Mrs. Tian hesitated for a moment before asking, "Master Hou, will it be forgotten from the Tai Hospital in the future?" ”

Qi Ning smiled: "What, don't you want to do the business of the hospital?" ”

Along the way, Mrs. Tian had regained her composure, and her previous fear had disappeared a lot, and she said, "If you have business to do, how can you not do it?" It's just that old pervert .......! Speaking of this, his cheeks were slightly dizzy, and he said hatefully: "I offended that old thing today, he ..... Naturally, he won't let us send medicinal herbs anymore. ”

Qi Ning said: "Lang Cheng, the small pharmacy bureau, can control the Tai Hospital, and Mrs. can't help but look down on him." He offended Mrs. today, this account is not over, Mrs. will stay at home these days, you have done all the medicinal materials that should be done, and within three days, keep it and let you send the medicinal materials to the hospital. ”

Mrs. Tian will be skeptical, but thinking about who Qi Ning is, since he said this, naturally there is no big problem.

Seeing the carriage leaving, Mrs. Tian had mixed feelings in her heart, if it weren't for Qi Ning coming forward today, the situation at that time, she herself thinks about it now, she doesn't know how to deal with it, Qi Ning with the dignity of brocade clothes, actually fell from the sky and rescued herself from the hands of the old pervert, but Mrs. Tian was extremely grateful in her heart.

For any woman, when she is most in danger, a man comes forward to protect herself, which is enough to make her grateful for a lifetime, and Mrs. Tian's situation is particularly special, she is a widowed woman, and there are many people who covet her, but it is rare to stand up when she is difficult.

She was in a complicated mood, and suddenly thought of the scene in the car before, she was held in Qi Ning's arms, and her cheeks were slightly hot.

Qi Ning sat in the carriage, just took the robe in his hand, although the robe was not draped on Mrs. Tian for a long time, but it was already stained with the fragrance of a mature woman on Mrs. Tian's body, this carriage is Mrs. Tian's special carriage, although she has gotten off, but the smell is still on the car, lingering on the tip of Qi Ning's nose.

Qi Ning also thought of the feeling of holding Mrs. Tian just now, thinking that this beautiful is really a stunner, the plump and soft soft body is just a hug, which is also heart-wrenching, it seems that he still does not have much resistance to this kind of mature and charming beautiful mature woman after all.

Returning to the Hou Mansion and vigorously driving the carriage away, Qi Ning didn't see Gu Qinghan, thinking that since Gu Wenwen had already sent someone over to inform him, Gu Qinghan naturally knew that the Gu family's crisis had been lifted, so he wouldn't worry too much.

After coming back, the estrangement between him and Gu Qinghan still did not disappear, Qi Ning knew that Gu Qinghan was very wary of himself, although he did have some thoughts about Gu Qinghan in his heart, but he also knew that Gu Qinghan was sticking to the bottom line, and it was really not easy to get close.

Speaking from the heart, Gu Qinghan strictly adhered to the bottom line, but Qi Ning admired it even more in his heart.

It's just that Gu Qinghan is about to leave, and he behaves very coldly from time to time, which still makes Qi Ning feel a little uncomfortable after all, but he can also understand it.

Qi Ning secretly pursued Gu Qinghan, naturally he didn't have any psychological burden, he was a brocade waiter, and he didn't actually have anything to do with Gu Qinghan, even if something really happened with Gu Qinghan, Qi Ning wouldn't feel any guilt, but he knew that Gu Qinghan thought that he was really a brocade wait, the two were aunts and nephews, and Gu Qinghan certainly didn't allow some things that shouldn't happen in such a relationship.

Although many of the lives of the eunuch class are corrupt and degenerate, and some unknown things happen a lot, and there are no scruples, Gu Qinghan is obviously not such a person.

Qi Ning knew that Gu Qinghan didn't want to get too close to her, so she simply stopped taking the initiative and behaved much more indifferently, lest Gu Qinghan always feel that she was thinking about her.

After he entered the mansion, he didn't see Gu Qinghan, nor did he ask his subordinates, but when Manager Han saw Qi Ning coming back, he hurriedly came over and said, "Master Hou, Mr. Liao in the account room has something to ask to see." ”

"Mr. Liao?" Qi Ning never asked about the account room of the Hou Mansion, let alone knew that the account man's surname was Wang and Li, so he asked, "What is he looking for me to do?" ”

Mr. Han said: "Mr. Liao knew that after Hou Ye came back, he was going to come over in person, but Hou Ye was very busy in the past two days, Mr. Liao didn't dare to disturb, and said to the old slave in private, if Hou Ye was free, he would come over, he said that before Hou Ye went to Xichuan, he told him to do something, and he had done it." ”

Qi Ning only felt inexplicable, thinking when he would ask the bookkeeper to help him do things? Gu Qinghan has always been taking care of the account room, and he has never asked questions, so he was puzzled and said, "You let him come over." ”

Mr. Han immediately retreated, and it didn't take long for him to see an old gentleman in his early fifties wearing a black hat enter the hall, bow down and arch his hand: "Master Hou! ”

Qi Ning glanced at it, had some impressions, suddenly remembered, got up and smiled: "Mr. Liao." ”

At this time, he had already thought that before he went to Xichuan, he really asked Mr. Liao to run an errand.

Zhuo Qingyang of Qionglin Academy was stabbed by someone, his whereabouts are unknown, and before he disappeared, he left clues and asked Qi Ning to find a bamboo tube from behind the plaque, and from the bamboo tube, an extremely strange scroll was found.

The scroll was full of strange characters, among which there were three large ancient characters on the far left, and Qi Ning seemed to be reading a book from heaven, and he couldn't read a word about the words on it.

He knew that in the Hou Mansion, the people in the account room were quite knowledgeable, so he copied those three words and let this Mr. Liao identify one of the words.

It's just that although Mr. Liao is not badly educated, he didn't know it at the time, Qi Ning only thought that this kind of ancient writing was indeed rare, so he casually asked Mr. Liao to check it, and then he went to Xichuan, and this matter was put aside, and he also secretly hid the scroll, until today, he almost forgot that there was still this matter.

When I saw Mr. Liao at this time, I immediately remembered it.

Mr. Na Liao said respectfully: "Master Hou, I have already done what you told me to do." He stepped forward and took out two pieces of paper from his sleeve, one was the one that Qi Ning asked him to identify the text that day, and the other was a new paper, Mr. Liao gave Qi Ning's one first, and said, "Master Hou, this is the word you handed over to me that day for identification, I don't know if it's right?" ”

Qi Ning took it, and saw that the text was simple and elegant, and the font was actually very beautiful, but it was unusually rare, so he nodded and said, "Yes, this is the word." ”

Mr. Liao said with a smile: "After Master Hou left, the villain consulted all kinds of classics, but never found this word. Not long ago, I was drinking with a few friends, and when I was talking about calligraphy, there happened to be a man who was a little proficient in ancient characters, and I wrote this character for him to recognize, and he couldn't recognize it on the spot, but he took me to his house and found an ancient character book. ”

"Ancient letters?"

Mr. Liao nodded and said, "It is a hand-copied ancient character book, which is extremely rare." According to him, the word Hou Ye is not an ordinary ancient script, if it is an ordinary ancient script, he can see the clues at a glance. The word Hou Ye is likely to be a secret shadow word that has long been extinct. ”

Qi Ning was surprised, thinking to himself what is this secret shadow word?

But he also knew very well that writing, as an important symbol of human cultural inheritance, has undergone an extremely long and complex evolutionary process.

Although this world is different from the history he is familiar with, in the history he knows, during the Warring States period, the writing of various countries was very different, and the same character was written in different ways.

Obviously, there is such a period in this world, perhaps there were all kinds of characters in history, survival of the fittest, many ancient characters slowly disappeared into history, and the secret shadow word in front of me may be one of the ancient characters that disappeared.

"Where did this shadow word come from?" Qi Ning asked, "How long has it been?" ”

Mr. Liao explained: "Master Hou, in fact, this secret shadow character has not been widely circulated, according to my friend, the secret shadow character appeared less than two hundred years ago, circulated for about less than twenty years, and then disappeared. In fact, the Shadow Script is not widely used, and only a very small number of people use it. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Qi Ning became more and more strange.

Mr. Liao shook his head and said: "The clouds break the moon shadow, the duckweed sends autumn, Master Hou, I don't know if you have ever heard of the name of this shadow Ping layman?" ”

Qi Ning shook his head, and Mr. Liao said regretfully: "Yingping Monk is a master of music and rhythm less than two hundred years ago, and the world's evaluation of this Yingping monk is divided into two, some people say that he is the most profound master of music and rhythm throughout the ages, and no one can beat him in terms of music and rhythm. But some people say that he is just a madman who is upside down, and his voice is strange and gloomy, and he has no beauty in the music he wants, and it is not worth mentioning. ”

Qi Ning suddenly became interested and said with a smile: "There are such strange things." ”

"What's even stranger is that there is also a legend that this Shadow Ping Monk is not a person, but a group of people, and this group of people is called Shadow Ping Monk, and they are all like-minded strange people in terms of music." Mr. Liao said: "There are different opinions, and it is difficult to say clearly what is going on. ”

Qi Ning asked, "Has Mr. Liao ever heard the rhythm of this Ying Ping monk?" ”

Mr. Liao hurriedly smiled and said, "Where do I have such luck, as far as I know, although the Ying Ping monk has a unique rhythm, he does not have any music score left. Legend has it that Yingping was a laid-bohemian and uninhibited, never conformist, and traveled all year round, either in the mountains or in the oceans, when many dignitaries invited him to perform, but he never was called. ”

Qi Ning smiled: "This is a great character. ”

"That's why Shadow Ping has offended a lot of people." Mr. Liao said: "Some people say that he died in despair, and some people say that he traveled far away and went to a very distant place. ”

Qi Ning nodded slightly and asked, "What does this Secret Shadow Character have to do with this Shadow Ping Layman?" ”
