Lu Qingjin met Qinglan as soon as she returned to the courtyard, she sat on the side and asked with a long sigh; "Isn't it already dealt with?"

Qinglan nodded and replied respectfully; "In the future, Xiaoyun will not come back, and Aunt Lu by Concubine Yun's side will not arrange people anymore, but the matter of charity is not yet certain."

Lu Qingjin took a sip of tea and said slowly; "You are my aunt's person, I don't know anything, it's just that it's inconvenient to tell me, but one thing you have to know, I don't want people around me to have an accident for no reason."

Qinglan said yes and didn't speak, the courtyard was quiet for a while, Qin Zhao, who was in the house, sighed, and Xiao Fuzi asked with some doubts; "Didn't the emperor come to see Niangniang, why don't you come out now?"

Qin Zhao looked at him with some amusement, and said lazily on the bed; "If I go out now, won't I tell everyone that I know everything, and when the time comes, if I don't say that Simin An is the queen, I may have a dislike with me, so let's wait."

After speaking, he closed his eyes, and Xiao Fuzi sat on the stool next to him with some grievances, feeling that he was not doing well for the first time.

Lu Qingjin asked while looking at the agricultural book; "I heard that there is already movement in the south, what happened to King Wei?"

Qinglan's identity has been seen through, so naturally there is no need to shy away from it, and she said it very wholeheartedly; "It's not a big deal, it's just that the number of victims has increased because of ghosts, and they are asking for money openly and secretly."

Lu Qingjin pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "I think it was his own increase in taxes that made people panic, and I don't know what the idea is, but there are too many things like Dayu, there was a disturbance in the palace, and this time it was all to the south." ”

Qinglan thought about it before saying cautiously; "The affairs in the palace are caused by some people, but the things in the south have a basis, and I think King Wei should really have encountered some difficulties."

Lu Qingjin looked over puzzled; "Is there anything different about the south?"

Qin Zhao Shi Ran walked out and took over the conversation gently; "This matter is not a secret, I think when Dayu founded the country, the charity master said that he could never go to Nanzhang Forest, there was an abnormal danger, and something would happen every once in a while, and many people in the south died because of this, and over time there were legends of these gods and ghosts."

Lu Qingjin was startled when she heard the voice, and almost jumped up from the chair, Qin Zhao walked over and pressed her on the chair while sitting down and drinking tea.

Lu Qingjin patted his chest and asked with some disgust: "When did you come here, why are you still hiding in the house and not making a sound." ”

Qin Zhao smiled, touched her head dotingly, and replied naturally; "You were already in it when you didn't come back, but you woke up too early and fell asleep, and you just woke up when you heard about King Wei."

Lu Qingjin put away the wool in his hand and began to knit the sweater with great interest: "It's already autumn, and now heating in the capital is a big problem, do you want to get more coal back." ”

Qin Zhao originally looked at the wool in Lu Qingjin's hand with great interest, and frowned when he heard the words and said helplessly; "There's a lot of coal in the nearby mountains, but now we don't have that much money in the treasury, so we can pick up some at most, and if you want to dig it, it's not possible."

Lu Qingjin felt that something was wrong, and the movements in his hands stopped for a while, and he asked suspiciously after a while; "But I haven't seen anyone in the capital pick up coal, and they often choose the more troublesome way of chopping wood."

Qin Zhao shrugged his shoulders and said slowly; "This matter has something to do with Nanzhanglin, saying that after Simin An came out of Nanzhanglin, he still brought a lot of poisonous insects. There was no place to raise it in the capital, so the Xie family at that time gave her a mountain forest in their hands, that is, the one that now has coal. ”

Lu Qingjin took over and said in disbelief: "In other words, the reason why no one entered the mountain is because I am worried about the poisonous insects left by Si Min'an?" ”

The corners of Qinglan's mouth twitched and she didn't speak, Qin Zhao glanced at her and said: "This is just one aspect, there were indeed a lot of people who died in that mountain forest back then, and many of them died inexplicably, and many people said that Si Min'an's soul was unwilling to stay there." ”

Lu Qingjin said as he stood up; "It's all unreliable speculation, I want to see why there are so many strange rumors in the mountains and forests."

Qin Zhao reluctantly stood up and walked outside with her, neither of them noticed that Qinglan on the side left quietly.

In the Liyun Palace, Xiao Cui stood respectfully near Concubine Li, waiting for Concubine Li to freshen up before speaking; "The emperor has arrived at the Huangzhuang, the queen doesn't know what to think, and the two of them are now heading towards the mountains and forests with coal mines."

Concubine Li nodded; "I know all this, tell me if there is any movement on Concubine Yun's side."

Xiao Cui hesitated for a moment before speaking; "The maid beside Concubine Yun suddenly disappeared, and Concubine Yun saw the Charity Mage not long ago, and only that maid was by her side at that time."

Concubine Li threw the extra Zhu Hai out with her hand, and said in a cold tone; "It turns out that I never knew that Concubine Yun still had this thought, it seems that the queen is too kind."

Xiao Cui hesitated for a moment before whispering; "It's not a bad thing if something happens to the queen, after all, Niangniang's current power is enough to protect herself."

Concubine Li sighed and said helplessly; "What do you know, now I have such power is not because of her, not to mention repaying the favor, but for the stability of the capital in the future, we can't let her have an accident, Concubine Yun, you keep an eye on it, in case she really has a different heart, we won't be too passive."

Xiao Cui nodded and took back Zhu Hai who had fallen to the ground.

Concubine Shu looked at the account book anxiously, and a little eunuch gently put a stack of letters on the table, and Concubine Shu flipped through it with some headaches; "Why is it him again, didn't you say at the time that the emperor wouldn't send me to kiss, why didn't you let go?"

The maid on the side shook her head helplessly; "At that time, Prince Huren did propose to make peace because he wanted to humiliate Dayu, but choosing Niangniang may not be selfish, Concubine Li has already made a start, and it is nothing if you just like Prince Huren."

Concubine Shu frowned and looked at the letter on the table; "Don't talk about this matter in the future, the Hu people are too far away, even if you really want to find a companion like Concubine Li in the future, it should be in the capital."
