Lin Qiantan made an appointment with Wei Jiayin to accompany her to the White Horse Temple to have a look.

Lin Qiantan didn't tell her that she had just been to the White Horse Temple a few days ago, and she still ran into Yin Ren there, but she didn't really want to go.

Wei Jiayin told her about this matter, and looked very happy: "My family has a very good relationship with the abbot of the White Horse Temple, and when the time comes, I will take you to a place where ordinary pilgrims in the temple can't go."

Where ordinary pilgrims can't go? Where is that? Lin Qiantan couldn't figure out what Wei Jiayin was talking about for a while.

Lin Qiantan didn't take this matter to heart. After Wei Jiayin went back, she also went back to the Dongshan Marquis Mansion.

The street is lively.

Several of the young generals who were left in the camp in the north by Emperor Tianlong, due to a holy decree, the news that they would return to the capital in a few days spread throughout the capital as quickly as possible.

They are all well-known people in the capital on weekdays, and for a while, this has become a hot topic after dinner.

When Wang Yuanzhao came back, he was happiest than his father Wang Shanya. Lin Qiantan met him who had just returned from the suburbs of Beijing on the way back, and the joy on his face was very obvious.

However, this kind of joy, when facing Lin Qiantan, seemed to be unnatural for a moment.

Lin Qiantan saw the elders who also took some care of herself, so she naturally stopped the carriage and came down to give Wang Shanya a salute. The two only exchanged a few words politely and simply on the side of the road, but they didn't have much contact.

After speaking, Lin Qiantan said goodbye to Wang Shanya.

There is a family affair between the Wang family and the Lin family, and there is a marriage contract between Lin Shumei, the sixth cousin of Lin Qiantan in the second room, and the fourth son of the Wang family, just because things are not coincidental, and good things are grinding, Lin Shumei's maternal grandfather has returned to heaven, and the two Lin and Wang families discussed it and understood Lin Shumei's mood of wanting to honor her elders.

In addition, the current political situation is also a little unstable, so a decision was made to postpone the marriage.

Lin Qiantan was just about to put down the curtains, Wang Shanya stopped her, thought about it, and said: "Trouble Miss Seven to tell the elders in your house that the Wang family intends to add another one percent to the dowry of Miss Six, and the Lin family does not need to increase Miss Six's dowry."

This is just Lin Shumei's matter, Lin Qiantan has an average relationship with this cousin, she didn't think much about it, she thought it was just an ordinary trivial matter, said "okay", and put down the curtain. She had a good impression of Wang Shanya, and she didn't associate her with the matter of waiting for Mei.

Wang Shanya was on the horse, paused for a moment before continuing to turn around and walk away slowly, thinking about something in her heart.

Lin Qiantan's maid treated Mei because his father repeatedly moved to kill and died. Although she is just a servant girl with a low status, Wang Shanya still can't help it.

The additional 10% dowry can be regarded as a kind of compensation in disguise.

The world says that the Wang family of the Yanguo Mansion is a courtier trusted and valued by the emperor of the Great Shang Dynasty, and Wang Shanya has some personal friendship with Emperor Tianlong, and he is very close.

is also because the performance of the Wang family has always been good, so I'm afraid no one still remembers the old Yan Guogong Wang Qun, but he is an old man from the Xia Dynasty.

Wang Shanya laughed at herself.

His father, Wang Qun, like many incognito celebrities in the market, missed the rule of the Xia Dynasty.

Zhimei just accidentally saw him secretly meet with a former official of the Xia Dynasty who was hidden in the city, and was killed.

However, what made Wang Shanya still feel a little surprised was that if his investigation was correct, his father would have been bumped into a secret, or a long time ago, how did this girl escape the pursuit and survive until now?

On that side, Lin Qiantan was also talking to the girl about Wang Shanya.

Wang Shanya is middle-aged, still personable, Jinhe didn't think it before, but now that he looks at it, he feels that he and Wang Yuanzhao really look quite similar. Especially those eyes, which were black and shiny like jewels in the night.

Lin Qiantan thought about it, it was true, Wang Yuanzhao may be more similar to his father.

As he was talking, the faint smile on Lin Qiantan's face suddenly stopped, Jinhe felt strange and asked Lin Qiantan what was wrong, but Lin Qiantan shook her head and said, "It's nothing." It's just that I think of something weird.

I thought about it before, but I didn't take it to heart. Looking at it now, Lin Qiantan can't help but think, who is Wang Dagou's biological father?

She already knew that Wang Yuanzhao, that is, the former Wang Ergou, was the child born to Wang Shanya and Xia Sanniang. The Wang family said that Xia Sanniang and her ex-husband gave birth to Wang Dagou, and seduced Wang Shanya, the son of Yan Guogong at that time, and gave birth to Wang Yuanzhao.

But thinking about it carefully, whether it is Wang Dagou or Wang Yuanzhao, Lin Qiantan doesn't seem to have heard them mention Wang Dagou's biological father. But the two brothers do look alike each other, and normally, they are not people who are not related to each other.

One doubt has not yet been revealed, and another doubt has arisen. Lin Qiantan frowned slightly, as if she had captured something in her heart, and it seemed that she didn't seem to have it.

After returning home, Lin Qiantan put this matter aside for the time being.

The next day, the Wei family came to a grandmother who was waiting closely by Wei Jiayin's side, and the grandmother told Lin Qiantan that the two made an appointment to go to the White Horse Temple together.

Lin Qiantan asked the grandmother to go back and tell Wei Jiayin that there might be heavy snow in a few days, and if you want to go, maybe you can go earlier.

The grandmother smiled and said "yes": "I didn't expect that Miss Seven is also a person who can look at the weather, and I also told our young lady this, but she didn't listen."

Lin Qiantan smiled and did not make any comment.

Most of these grandmothers are proficient in recognizing weather changes, and Wei Jiayin is not a person who does not listen to the advice of the people around him, why did he not listen to persuasion in this matter.

Lin Qiantan smiled: "Maybe your young lady heard that some people are coming back, and she is happy, so she can't go." Lin Qiantan said this by herself, but she seemed to be a little unhappy in her heart. She shook her head imperceptibly, and quickly suppressed the unhappiness in her heart.

The grandmother laughed again.

and the Wang family's relatives, she also looked good, but her master was prejudiced against others and was unwilling to accept it. Lately, I seem to know a little bit about enlightenment. She was also pleased.

Although Lin Qiantan said that most of them were jokes, to be honest, she also found that Wei Jiayin didn't know when she started, and her attitude towards Wang Yuanzhao seemed to have changed a little inexplicably.

After the mother finished speaking, she left a few northern pastries that Wei Jiayin gave back, and left.

Lin Qiantan sent her away with a smile, and was just about to turn around and walk back to the house to Chu Jiang and continue to sew the winter coat that was being needled, when a little girl made a felt curtain outside, and the probe came in and said to Lin Qiantan, Miss Eight is here.

Lin Bixiang?

Lin Qian said in her heart, this is an unwelcome guest.

So she subconsciously put aside the needle and thread in her hand for a while.

Lin Qiantan originally wanted to turn Lin Bixiang away, but thinking about it, where would Lin Bixiang be the one who honestly waited for her to say yes or disagree and decided not to come in.

Sure enough, before the little maid over there could finish speaking, a hand reached out behind her and forcibly pulled her away, squeezed the little maid away and walked in.

Lin Qiantan looked at Lin Bixiang in front of her, naturally she was only unhappy in her heart, and she was not in a hurry to speak, just waiting for Lin Bixiang to speak first to see what she was going to say.

Lin Qiantan and Wei Jiayin were going to the White Horse Temple to seek marriage, and Lin Bixiang's news was well-informed.

She wanted to go with her like a kraft candy, and Lin Qiantan had no reason to agree. She didn't get what she wanted, so she said, "Since my sister won't go with me, then I'll go by myself."

Lin Qiantan sneered, this person didn't know where he came from, and he would actually snatch a man with her so brazenly when the relationship between the two was bad?

Did the four princes not feed her, or did Yin Huai feed her too much?

Lin Bixiang, is this Sima Zhao's heart, everyone knows?

Anyway, she didn't plan to call Chu Jiang to escort her. Lin Bixiang wanted to follow, so let her follow.

It's better to say that it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, Lin Bixiang didn't come, but Lin Qiantan put an extremely important matter on hold for the time being because she was waiting for Mei to die suddenly. It's time to pick it up again.

Lin Qiantan instructed Jinhe to take out the intestines in the cabinet.

Jinhe answered and went. As soon as I heard that thing, I knew that it was a poison that was basically hopeless when it went into the stomach, and what Lin Qiantan was doing with it was clear at a glance, and Jin He didn't know where he was.

Even Ji Yue and Fengguang and others, who were familiar with these methods, raised their heads and glanced at Lin Qiantan intentionally or unintentionally.

In their cognition, Lin Qiantan should not be a murderous person, but there was an accident in Dong Yong and Lin Bixiang.

Lin Qiantan wanted to send Lin Bixiang underground to be a husband and wife in the underworld with Dong Yong, it was not a day or two, no, this was not the right day.

Now that she and Wei Jiayin are setting off to the White Horse Temple together, Lin Bixiang is in a hurry to follow, doesn't it mean that she has a chance to do it, and she also saves the time to kill someone, and spends time carrying it over to be buried together.

It's just how to make alibi evidence a little more troublesome.

Jin He, like the dog-headed military advisor, took advantage of the fact that there was no one else around, so he came over and made an idea with Lin Qiantan, as if Lin Qiantan was not going to kill people and set fires, but to kill pigs and cook. And she's the one who helps.

The two discussed and discussed, but they also discussed two or three plans, Jinhe is a loyal servant, not right to people, and only recognizes Lin Qiantan as the master.

Lin Qiantan looked at her and thought, after this time, try not to let Jinhe, a stupid girl, stain her hands with blood because of her again.

One more day, just like Lin Qiantan and the Wei family's grandmother said, the sky really began to clear, Lin Qiantan called someone, ran to the Wei family, and asked if Wei Jiayin would like to go up the mountain the next day.

Wei Jiayin is different from Lin Qiantan's other friends, as if they are separated from each other. She and Zhang Yan are completely incompatible. Lin Qiantan couldn't help but regret it, if it weren't for this, maybe she could call Chen Jingrou and go together.

Jin He cleaned up her replacement clothes on the side and said, "Come on, aren't you going to kill someone, are you afraid that you won't be able to beat Miss Eight, so ask Miss Chen and them to help together?"

With the burial of Waitmei, a period of time has passed, Jinhe seems to have regained some of her superficial liveliness, and Lin Qiantan also knew that she was intentionally saying such things to amuse herself, she and Waitmei grew up together since childhood......

*

Of course, it is impossible for Lin Qiantan to ask Chen Jingrou and others to help him kill people and sell goods.

Besides, Chen Jingrou and others don't have that space, or maybe it's not suitable.

Needless to say, Zhang Yan has no power to tie the chicken, at most she just picks up a pen to write and paint. Gu Qingxuan is better than Zhang Yan, but it's about the same. Chen Jingrou is a robber who can be a robber with her bare hands, but this robber is now being forcibly detained by her mother, Mrs. Guangningbo, and has been learning ladylike demeanor for a year and a half, and has not yet been released from prison.

Besides, Mrs. Guangningbo also has to take her daughter to major meeting places for people to see.

Perhaps thinking of Chen Jingrou in his heart, he went to Lin Qiantan's nest to take a nap in the warm room, and Guangning Bofu happened to be a person.

Chen Jingrou was confined at home and was not allowed to go out, but she did not forget Lin Qiantan, the only sister who was willing to learn some self-defense kung fu from her, and asked someone to send her a set of boxing books.

Lin Qiantan looked at the girl who gave the boxing book and smiled suspiciously, and made up her mind to ask what was going on......

Lin Qiantan first heard the girl repeating what Chen Jingrou said: "...... Miss also said that Miss Seven didn't take a horse step when she was a child, and it was too late to practice basic skills, and it was too late to become a martial artist. However, this set of introductory boxing techniques is very practical and suitable for self-study, so ask the young lady to watch and use it by herself first. She is in the sea of suffering, and she can't climb out, saying that she can't live with you, and she can't teach you personally. ”

Lin Qiantan naturally didn't care if Chen Jingrou taught it personally.

I took the initiative to ask a sister who said that this was a "girl", but in fact she was older than the seventeen-year-old body: "Sister, do you want to look in the mirror?" The look of a good thing on that face is inevitably too obvious.

The man was also stunned, and he didn't react for a while when Lin Qiantan said it. On the other hand, there was really a little girl who brought the mirror to show her, and she was there to play haha. This time, Lin Qiantan asked her again, but she was embarrassed to pretend to be stupid to the end, and said: "Our young lady told her that she couldn't say this, but she still asked Miss Seven to see it herself."

This girl thought about it, anyway, it wasn't something that could be hidden for a long time, so she talked about it briefly, and she didn't blame her if she thought about it.

She left after a short time, and the green jade sent her out, Lin Qiantan thought to herself, she finally encountered something that could make her happy.

I don't know if it counts as Mei Zaitian's spirit, after she left, Chen Jingrou finally had some eyebrows in family affairs.

Lin Qiantan wanted to ask more deeply, but the people covered their mouths and refused to say more, so they just said that the man was the second son of Princess Anyang's family.

Princess Anyang is just an inconspicuous person in the royal family of the Great Shang Dynasty, she is low-key, Lin Qiantan doesn't know her, she only heard that this princess has never been liked by the first emperor and Emperor Tianlong.

Chen Jingrou's girl still underestimated Lin Qiantan's ability to investigate intelligence, she only thought that the second son of Princess Anyang had never had a reputation with the outside world, and Lin Qiantan was a person in the boudoir, so she didn't take it to heart, and she was not afraid that she would want to ask outside.

Lin Qiantan smiled and said, "I'm afraid Chen Jingrou herself may not be able to figure out who the second son of Princess Anyang is."

Lin Qiantan also recorded this incident in her heart, thinking that she would pay more attention to Chen Jingrou later. After all, it is the marriage of a good sister, and she really wants to care about it. Although Chen Jingrou kept saying that "the Huns are not destroyed and do not say anything", Lin Qiantan can see that she also has her own emotional needs in her heart.

*

Chen Jingrou didn't know how to describe her feelings.

She is old and doesn't look like a "woman" at all, so she can't figure out how there would be a person with a pit in her head, and she would actually express her meaning through a matchmaker euphemistically expressing what she seems to be interested in.

Didn't she just attend a tea party, she didn't even notice it herself, where did she meet such a man who would look at her?

Mrs. Guangningbo, who had no hope of persevering there, was also surprised by the good news sent by Princess Anyang's Mansion as if she had fallen from heaven with that joy.

After being surprised and happy again, Mrs. Guangningbo cheered up and seriously inquired if the second son of Princess Anyang had any special circumstances, so that she would fall in love with her daughter......

However, as long as there is not a character that is too bad, and there is not a serious health and life problem, it is fine.

When Lin Qiantan was still wondering whether to send someone to ask who the second son of Anyang was, Mrs. Guangningbo, who had been investigating intensively for half a month, had already obtained very accurate information.

Mrs. Guangningbo listened to the news reported to her by her confidant and grandmother, and was completely stunned: "What you said, but is it true?"

A woman with a face like a disc and a loyal appearance, standing in front of her master, did not dare to hide it, and once again considered the wording, and said, "Yes." Nothing can be wrong? And I also think that this matter should be deliberately told by His Royal Highness Anyang to let us know and know...... "The people in Princess Anyang's Mansion have always been low-key, she thinks it's strange, how can it be so coincidental, there will be servants from Princess Anyang's Mansion who are touched by her to buy vegetables at a vegetable stall......

Mrs. Guangningbo couldn't come back to her senses for a long time, and it took a while to burst out laughing, and her mood was very complicated.

When I washed up and went to bed with my husband at night, I said, "...... I heard that the second son is a man who likes to dress up as a woman...... "That day, Princess Anyang seemed to bring a little "girl" who was slightly taller than the average boudoir lady, and everyone said that it was a distant relative of her husband's family.

Guang Ningbo was drinking water while holding his wife at the time, and when he heard this, he didn't react at once, and was amused by what his wife said......

Who said that the fate under the world is not determined by heaven in the dark.

The man coughed and laughed, and in the face of his wife's glare, he finally put away his cough, wiped his wet mouth and clothes because he didn't hold it for a while, and said to his wife with a smile: "This is very good, isn't it just a match for Rou'er?" If you say this, the second son is not only as tall as his daughter's shoulders.

Mrs. Guangningbo, however, was a little sad, and she was not happy or unhappy about this matter.

*

Lin Qiantan didn't have time to ask someone to ask who the second son of Princess Anyang's Mansion was, so she had already gotten into the carriage to go to the White Horse Temple with Wei Jiayin.

It just so happened that there was some chaos in the two people's mansions, Lin Qiantan was the best relative here, and Wei Jiayin was the court officials who kept coming and going. So, the matter was happily decided.

Lin Qiantan smiled and hugged Wei Jiayin, this trip, Wei Jiayin took care of all the cars and horses. Lin Qiantan just pulled out the small carriage that she had always used to use to carry her bags and accompanying girls, Wei Jiayin first went to see the Shen family, and then came out with Lin Qiantan.

Lin Qiantan asked to live outside on the grounds that her grandfather and grandmother wanted peace, there was no rule in the house, Lin Quan didn't care, Yin Wei was selfish, as for Shen Ning and his wife, they would not stop the owner at all, and Lin Qiantan came out very smoothly.

The car quickly drove out of the city gate and walked onto the official road, and Lin Qiantan didn't know that she was followed by a carriage of Lin Bixiang. Even if Lin Bixiang was just angry, she had to go with Lin Qiantan.

The sky is really like what Lin Qiantan said, it is a sunny day, although it is a little colder, but both of them have brought enough firewood. It's warm in the car.

The two soon arrived at the White Horse Temple.

The road was not easy to walk in winter, Lin Qiantan and Wei Jiayin came up with difficulty all the way, and as soon as they arrived at the wing room provided by the temple, they rested.

Lin Qiantan first slept with Wei Jiayin, the two got up, went to the main hall to worship the Buddha and ask for a sign, and later, they walked around the White Horse Temple.

The air in the mountains is fresh, and the two of them don't dislike walking on the road, and the wind blows and blows.

Lin Qiantan often comes and is familiar with the road, but she still remembers Wei Jiayin telling her that there is a wing room that is not open to the public.

Lin Qiantan brought it up, and Wei Jiayin naturally brought her over. Only then did Lin Qiantan know that what Wei Jiayin was talking about was a five-story old pagoda in the temple that is generally unknown.

The tower is tall and should not be left unseen.

However, it is interesting that the old tower in the White Horse Temple is densely covered by a large tree that is higher than the tower body, and the monks of the temple do not let visitors enter, and over time, this place has been forgotten.

But Wei Jiayin is different.

The Wei family has a friendship with the abbot, and the abbot is naturally easy to speak. The White Horse Temple intends to repair this tower, and the Wei family has made contributions, so it is no wonder that Wei Jiayin will say that she can go in.

The tower was blocked, and Lin Qiantan vaguely knew that it seemed to have something to do with the remnants of the previous dynasty, and the tower itself was nothing extraordinary, but it was just a place to hide books......

Walking in, Lin Qiantan could see that the inside was different from the outside, very clean and tidy, and the books that had been sorted out were placed layer by layer.

With the permission of the monks of the monastery, the two walked in it, flipped through it from time to time, and the wooden planks on the floor "squeaked" and the sound was obvious.
