Chapter 147: The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop

October 20. Bayi Chinese Network

After the heavy rain, the air was exceptionally fresh, the two carriages stopped steadily outside the Wen family, the ladies had already boarded the car, Liu Chengfeng was wearing a round-necked Confucian shirt, dressed as a rich boy and riding a horse in front, left and right were a few old Huo transferred to help and make a follow-up, at this time it was still early, the red sun was oblique in mid-air, and the air was filled with a faint moisture.

"It's time to go." Liu Chengfeng rarely travels once, in the past, he set up a stall to make a living, but now it is for the future, fame and fortune, he has been fighting for so long, and he has no clue, Suo Xing took advantage of today's kung fu to go out and have a good time.

A group of people from the Wen family to the direction of Chaoyangmen, this Chaoyang Gate is an important business road, merchants from all over the country, in addition to escorting goods into Beijing by water, this land route is only Chaoyangmen can pass, not only because Chaoyangmen side of the warehouse is more, the merchant's goods can be docked on the spot, more importantly, here is the only place to guard the city gate more relaxed, after all, the grain from the water and land into Beijing, the waterway is just the down, the land route is also to go to this Chaoyang Gate, a large number of cars and horses poured in, if it is strictly guarded, one by one search, I'm afraid that few people will be able to enter Beijing when it gets dark.

On the side of the household department, every day he was urging the grain to come in, waiting for the accounting check, and the commander of the Jingwei commanded Si Suo Xing to turn a blind eye.

Although it was early in the morning, there was a long queue outside the Chaoyang Gate, and those Beijing guards did not let people stop and check when they opened the door, but impatiently urged the car in front to go quickly, so as to move the car behind.

Seeing that it is about to reach the end of the year, it is the time for the household department to calculate the taxes and grain, and every day there are people to discuss with the Jingwei command and envoys, although the household department is not as good as the ministry of officials, but it is also not to be underestimated, and people are close to the cabinet after all. There are also cabinet elders above to open their eyes for them, and of course the Jingwei Command Envoy can't afford to provoke them.

Liu Chengfeng saw this congested scene, couldn't help frowning, and wanted to beat the horse and lead the family to squeeze out, but was stopped by a guard of the Beijing Guard, and shouted: "Only in but not out, go to the side and wait for half an hour." ”

Liu Chengfeng was speechless and smiled. Discuss with this soldier: "Brother, make a convenient ......"

"It's convenient for you, it's inconvenient for us, go aside, if you're not in a hurry, go over from Chongwenmen."

Liu Chengfeng gritted his teeth and glared at the soldier, and the soldier forked the two sides: "What! Aren't you convinced? ”

The carriage and horse in front of him leaned out, and Wen Chenxi said, "Husband, forget it, let's go to Chongwenmen instead." ”

The second car pulled the curtain open. Wen Chenruo poked his head out and said, "I'll go here today, brother-in-law, beat them!" ”

The soldier was speechless at the sisters. was about to scold a few words, but Liu Chengfeng became more speechless than him, and said: "Okay, good, I'm convinced, come to someone, go to Chongwenmen." With that, he turned his horse's head and led a group of people towards Chongwenmen.

Those few helpers couldn't help but secretly feel strange, what kind of temper this Lord Liu was. How could they not know? This is a character who hit the East Factory and dared to kill people with a knife, and now he bumped into such a doorman, and he was dumb and angry? It's inevitably too confusing.

One is bold. Quickly walked up, led the horse for Liu Chengfeng, and asked: "My lord, it's just a doorman, why should you be angry with him?" We are Jinyiwei, what are we afraid of Jingwei doing? ”

Liu Chengfeng smiled quietly and said, "Didn't you see so many grain trucks and trucks about to enter the city?" If we go out, the trucks that go into the city will have to wait outside, and we don't know how many hours it will be delayed. It's just that I didn't inquire clearly at the time, and I didn't know that Chaoyangmen was so lively. ”

That casually scratched his head. It is difficult to withstand the words of Liu Chengfeng, these hundred households. When you are reasonable, it seems to be very reasonable, but if you are unreasonable, it is similar to **.

Coming out of Chongwen Gate, detouring out, it has been delayed for half an hour, fortunately, the official road outside is quite flat, all the way to the south for an hour, the front has been able to see a bare forest, Liu Chengfeng stationed in the horse and looked into the distance, and couldn't help asking: "Is that the peach forest?" ”

"That's right, that's Tsuya Peach Forest. Further south, it is Beitongzhou. ”

Liu Chengfeng nodded, pointed to a temple near the water by the peach forest and said: "Let's go, go to the temple for a walk, although the peach blossoms have not bloomed, but I heard that many osmanthus trees planted in the temple are blooming, let the two young ladies go to pick some flowers later." ”

Everyone continues to set off, in fact, this temple occupies a small area, but the incense is prosperous, the temple is famous, I heard that it is the merchants along the way to ensure the smooth flow of goods to raise donations to build, there are not many tourists who come here to rest, but there are many merchants who often come and go to Beitongzhou and the capital, Liu Chengfeng helped Wen Chenxi out, Wen Chenruo in the carriage behind said: "Brother-in-law, I also want to help." ”

Liu Chengfeng and Wen Chenxi glanced at each other, Wen Chenxi couldn't help but smile, and glanced at Liu Chengfeng, Liu Chengfeng looked bitter, and said in a low voice: "There is a difference between men and women, although they are related, they are also upright and gentlemen, but if others see it, they will inevitably gossip." ”

Wen Chenxi smiled: "How can there be so many words? Help her down. ”

Liu Chengfeng received the Yi Zhi, and immediately ran to Wen Chenruo's carriage, with his hands all over his hand, Wen Chenruo's soft wattle on his hand, only felt that this hand was bright and clear, as if it was as smooth as fat jade, Wen Chenruo got off the car, Liu Chengfeng said with a smile: "Little sister-in-law, don't do this in the future, your brother-in-law is from a white family, and he can't make people laugh." ”

Wen Chenruo couldn't help but say, "What's the joke?" ”

The corners of Liu Chengfeng's mouth twitched, but he didn't know how to answer, so he had to say: "Later, you and your sister will go to break some osmanthus branches, and I will ask someone to open a side room in the temple......"

Wen Chenruo interrupted him and said, "Why does my brother-in-law always mention the osmanthus flower, if my brother-in-law wants it, he will pick it himself." ”

Liu Chengfeng said: "I have only heard of women folding flowers and men destroying flowers." How can a brother-in-law, a man, and a husband go to pick flowers? That's what a thief does. ”

After saying that he was no longer entangled with Wen Chenruo, he returned to Wen Chenxi's side to hold her hand, climbed the steps step by step, and entered the mountain gate with a group of servants, this temple is said to be a temple, in fact, it is more appropriate to say that it is an inn, although there are also incense, there are monks and laymen, but because there are many merchants in the past, it has become a transit station for rest, Liu Chengfeng rewarded ten taels of silver incense money, asked for a room, and immediately had a small novice to go to tea, Wen Chenxi, Wen Chenruo went to pick osmanthus, Liu Chengfeng was a little worried, so he let the servants follow.

Folding flowers and the like, Liu Chengfeng is unwilling to do it, so he is bored in this room, so he can't help but look at this side room, the furnishings of this house are simple, and there is no difference from other places, the only difference, I am afraid that there is one more small case, Liu Chengfeng walked to the front of the case, and found that there were traces of incense ash here, but there was no Buddha statue, and he couldn't help laughing: "This is strange, the Bodhisattva statue must have been stolen." ”

He looked at the traces of the incense ash, and found that the incense ash was scattered around, only an elliptical place without any trace of incense ash, this must be the place where the Buddha statue was placed, when worshiping the Buddha, the Buddha statue was placed here, and the incense ash fell, so it was scattered all around, but because this blank place was originally placed with the Buddha statue, it was naturally spotless, and the Buddha statue was taken away, and this place became particularly eye-catching, as if a person put a plaster on his body and went out to bask in the sun, and when he came back, the skin of the whole body was black and red, and the plaster was torn off. The flesh covered by the plaster was as bright as snow.

Liu Chengfeng looked at this oval place and couldn't help but say: "This place is not big, isn't the Buddha statue you worship only the size of a fist?" ”

He was suspicious in his heart, as if he remembered something, he took out the jade Buddha from his body yesterday from the priest, and placed the base of the jade Buddha in the empty place, and then, his eyes couldn't help but light up.

The blank space is completely in line with the base of the Emerald Buddha, what does it mean?

Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but squint his eyes: "There have also been people here who have placed the Jade Buddha, and they have visited this Bright Buddha, so much incense ash, I am afraid that there are still many people who worship, could it be that these people are also from the Light Sect?" ”

Liu Chengfeng realized at this time that the hidden Bright Sect was by no means simple, Lei Biao in Yingchun Fang, and this Zhaoming Temple, there were traces of the activities of the Bright Sect, could it be ......

Liu Chengfeng's eyes flashed, put away the Jade Buddha, called a little novice with a smile, and asked, "Who lived in this room some time ago?" ”

Xiao Shami smiled quietly and said, "What is the donor asking for?" ”

Liu Chengfeng smiled faintly: "It's just a casual question, don't you smell the fragrance of women in this room?" Gee...... It turns out that this temple still accepts female guests at night? ”

Xiao Shami hurriedly said: "Although there are female Tanyue coming and going in the small temple, they will never stay overnight, this house is obviously lived in a few days ago...... A few nobles, no female guests. ”

When Liu Chengfeng heard this, his eyes flashed, and he said, "Nobleman, what nobleman?" ”

Just now he deliberately said that there was a fragrance in the house, but he was just opening his mouth to test it, and as soon as he heard the word noble, Liu Chengfeng immediately cheered up.

The little novice couldn't help but say something, "It's inconvenient for this little monk to say more......

Liu Chengfeng reached into his sleeve, grabbed out a handful of broken silver, and indirectly handed it to Xiao Shami, saying, "Good, uncle will buy you candy to eat." ”

Xiao Shami hurriedly thanked him, and then replied seriously: "A few days ago, a few nobles came and brought dozens of servants, those two nobles naturally lived in the upper courtyard, but many servants lived here, they spoke with accents like Jiangxi, and the rest, the little monk didn't know at all." ”

Jiangxi...... Elegant......

Liu Chengfeng's eyes closed, and he suddenly remembered someone.
