Chapter Ninety-Nine: Hanshan Temple
"You and I just need to understand, she can act if she wants, as long as it doesn't go against us, don't worry about her!" Soho said.
Yingxue nodded, "Yes!" I know, but I don't know what the second lady means by doing this, anyway, the second lady has already ...... can't come back, it's useless for her to do this, and it's plain and boring. ”
"Who knows," Soho shook his head, "by the way, I haven't seen the eldest lady since I came back today, what's wrong with her?" ”
Speaking of this, the look on Yingxue's face was even more interesting, and she replied impatiently, "Miss, I also think it's strange that the eldest lady is grounded!" ”
"What?" Soho also found it unbelievable, the eldest lady is the head of the house, she is majestic and dignified on weekdays, and she is even more powerful and can't tolerate the sand in her eyes, and now she is grounded?
"Why is that?"
Ying Xue Yuan originally re-narrated the matter, Su He listened to it, and he didn't know what to say for a while, human nature is selfish, Liang Rong secretly sent Su Nian to the extreme north for the benefit of Su Qing, but he didn't know how to converge, and he was also to blame.
Before I knew it, it was already late, and Soho had been on the road for a day, and she had been coping with it when she came back, and at this time she finally felt sleepy and couldn't help but go to sleep.
When he woke up the next day, Soho only felt hungry, so he got up to look for food, and when he arrived at the door, he heard Yingxue arguing with someone.
"How can you bring such a meal? It's all rancid, how can I eat it! It's not like this these days, but today the young lady is back, and you guys are taking this kind of thing! Yingxue puffed out her cheeks and said angrily.
On the opposite side was a dark and thin short housekeeper, he rolled his already small eyes, yin and yang weird, "Yo, is it difficult for the third lady to be a nobleman?" What else do you want to eat? The old lady specially ordered, let us send this kind of food, love to eat or not! With that, he forcefully put the things on the table and turned around to leave, but as soon as he turned around, he was stunned, because there was Su Yuanqing standing in front of him, his face was gloomy, his lips were pursed, and he was obviously very angry.
That family Ding didn't know when Su Yuanqing came, and he didn't know how much he listened, at this time he was trembling in his heart, but he still said in a trembling voice, "Old ...... Sir, this is ...... This was ordered by the old lady. ”
"Whoever ordered it, did you speak to your master in this tone? Who taught you, is it also the old lady? Su Yuanqing's tone was slow, and he didn't need to use a high tone to make people shiver.
The family was busy kneeling down, "Don't dare, don't dare, don't dare!" ”
Su Yuanqing kicked him away for a moment, "Dog, it's so powerful!" I really forgot my identity, from today on, you don't have to be in the mansion, go to the treasury and take the silver according to the rules, get out! ”
That Ding didn't expect Su Yuanqing to give himself such a heavy punishment, and kowtowed again and again, "Don't, don't drive me away, master......"
"I don't want to say it a second time, get out!"
Seeing that there was no room for maneuver, the family knew that he left with a sad face.
Su Yuanqing looked at the spoiled food on the table, his face was ugly, he looked at Su He, with guilt, "He'er, I have wronged you, I will order them to go down in a while, and they will not be allowed to do this again." ”
Soho was not overly happy, still faint, not surprised, "Thank you father." ”
Su Yuanqing nodded, "Thank you, you are my daughter, how can I see you suffering such grievances?" ”
Yingxue stood aside, looking much more aggrieved than Soho, "Master, they are too much, it's not once or twice, you still ...... Tell the old lady, if it weren't for the old lady's instructions, they wouldn't dare to be so presumptuous. ”
Su Yuanqing nodded a little embarrassedly, "Okay." ”
Su He glanced at Su Yuanqing, then turned back to the house and took out a box, "This is a sachet, there are ten in it, enough for a while, and there is also a medicinal incense, my father can usually light a piece, it is very effective." ”
Su Yuanqing was very surprised, "He'er, you ......" He was surprised that Su He could guess his mind at once.
Su He smiled, of course she knew the reason why Su Yuanqing came here early in the morning, if he hadn't asked her, he would have thought of his daughter, and did justice for her?
Su Yuanqing hugged the box and said softly, "It's going to be early, I'm afraid that coughing above the court will make the emperor dissatisfied, so I want to come to you." ”
"The medicinal materials in the sachet are all edible, and my father will open the sachet when the time comes, take out the yellow medicine inside, and hold it in his mouth for a while, so that he can survive too early and not cough."
Su Yuanqing was very pleased, "Okay, okay, you have a heart, then I'll go first." With that, he took his things and left.
After a while, the kitchen brought a delicious meal, and Soho looked at the faces of those people, and only felt that it was boring, but fortunately, the food was delicious, so that she would not be unable to swallow.
While eating, Yeyue came in, "Miss, I went to check the situation of the second prince last night, and there are no suspicious people who interact with him." ”
"He asked Su Kun to come to investigate, just because he has a sense of precaution, and he may be more restrained." Soho replied.
"There is another thing, the second prince will go to Hanshan Temple to make incense and make a wish the day after tomorrow, and he has also prepared a tea party."
When Soho heard this, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you want to do so?" Why did he go to make a vow? ”
Yeyue slowly explained, "Here's the thing, a few days ago, the queen's mother suddenly became seriously ill, the imperial doctor in the palace was helpless, and the folk doctor couldn't diagnose it, the queen was in great pain, and the emperor was also anxious, so the second prince went to Hanshan Temple to make a wish, which is strange to say, within a few days, the queen's illness was cured, and now it has fully recovered, no different from the past, the emperor is also happy, the second prince decided to go to Hanshan Temple to make a wish, and by the way, a tea party in Qianyun Peak can be regarded as alleviating the worries of these days." ”
Soho listened, and slowly put down the chopsticks, of course she didn't believe this, she could get better if she made a wish, what do you want a doctor like her to do?
"Is it difficult for you to inquire about these things?" Soho asked.
Yeyue shook her head, "It's not difficult, you'll know as soon as you ask." ”
Su He thought about it carefully, and then said, "I'm afraid that things are not so simple, and you can find out so easily, which means that the second prince is deliberately letting people know this, so that people can know that he accompanies the queen these days, and he is worried, so he doesn't seem to have the time or energy to do anything else, but if the queen's illness is fake, then ...... There's another explanation. ”
Yeyue also nodded, "Miss's thoughts are the same as those of the prince." ”
Su He didn't expect Yeyue to answer this, but smiled faintly and instructed, "You go and rest, Yingxue has already prepared food for you, and it's in your house." ”
Yeyue was stunned, and then agreed.
Soho sat here in deep thought, offering incense and vows......
The second lady began to make trouble again, this time it was the eldest lady, the eldest lady was in a bad mood, and she was troubled by the second lady again, and she suddenly became ill. The entire Su Mansion is now not at peace for a moment, poor Su Yuanqing has to deal with those officials in the court, and when he comes back, he has to listen to these quarrels, which can be described as a headache.
Soho then saw this opportunity and took the initiative to ask to go to the temple to offer incense, pray for the blessings of the Su Mansion, so that the two ladies' illnesses can get better as soon as possible, as for the location, it is naturally the Hanshan Temple outside the city.
Su Yuanqing didn't disagree, although he didn't think that incense was useful, but it was a way, and it could be regarded as a kind of wish sustenance, what if the Buddha appeared? Su Yuanqing was in a hurry at this time, there was really no way, Su He mentioned this, he agreed without thinking about it.
"Go, go, He'er has grown up, and he knows that he has shared his worries for his father, you must be sincere and sincere when the time comes, and the Buddha will be moved, by the way, give you more silver, and buy the best incense when the time comes!" Su Yuanqing sent someone to give Su He a bag of silver.
Su He didn't expect Su Yuanqing to be so happy, but this is always a good thing, so she can do it easier, so Su He did as promised, Su Yuanqing in order to reward her filial piety, specially asked people to prepare servants and sedan chairs for her, this battle is always a prime minister's daughter.
Now it is the beginning of September, the morning air in the suburbs of Beijing is cold, Soho took a sedan chair to Hanshan Temple, I thought I came early, but I didn't expect that there were already many people at the gate of Hanshan Temple, most of them were women from rich and noble families in Beijing. Su He understood in his heart that most of these women also came after hearing the news, Su He suddenly had some unsure of his idea, so many women, the second prince was afraid that he would not be able to notice him, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to approach him.
Soho gritted his teeth, he came anyway, whether it works or not, he always has to give it a try.
Soho got off the sedan chair, looking at these delicately dressed, full of fragrant powder of the women, I really don't know what to say, Soho walked through the crowd, only to see a woman holding incense in her hand, slowly twisting and twisting, the incense was twisted away by her, Soho smiled, if you dedicate this incense to the Buddha, I am afraid that the golden statue of the Buddha will change color.
"Oh, why haven't you seen the second prince yet, is this news accurate?"
"Miss, for sure, you can wait a little longer."
Soho heard similar words all the way, which made her ears calloused, and Soho didn't want to be in the limelight, but someone paid attention to her.
"Hey, whose family are you? How come I haven't seen you? I saw a woman in red come over and ask.
Soho gave her a look, huh...... The makeup is heavy, the fragrance on the body is too strong, a little choking, and there are a lot of emerald gold hairpins on the head.
Soho just replied lightly, "My name is Soho." ”
"Soho? Ah, I remember, you are the third lady of Su Mansion? The woman looked at Soho and was surprised, her eyes widened with surprise and ...... Eat one's heart out.
