Shen Zhongchen did not take Fang Siqi back to Anguo Mansion to confront him.

After all, when they left, they didn't greet the people from the Anguo Mansion.

During their time in the Anguo Mansion, no one followed them.

So when something happened to the old woman, they wanted to clear up the relationship, and it was difficult to say clearly.

What's more, this is still a bureau specially set up by An Meiqi for the two of them.

"Where are you taking me?" Fang Siqi was a little curious about how Shen Zhongchen would deal with this matter. "You're not going to run away with me, are you?"

Fang Siqi thought, even if he wants to escape, he has to bring his belongings!

Fang Siqi has never had a hard life, but she knows very well that without silver, no matter where she is, life will not be easy.

Shen Zhongchen pretended to be mysterious and said, "Don't worry, Qiqi, you will know what I will do when you get to the place." ”

The two walked slowly to the Ningguo Mansion, and they didn't know what Shen Zhongchen said to the porter of the Ningguo Mansion, and the concierge actually let them in.

Fang Siqi looked at Shen Zhongchen in surprise, "Do you know anyone from the Ningguo Mansion?" ”

Since the founding of the Great Xia, the Ningguo Mansion has been assisting the king and has been glorious for generations.

And today's Ning Guogong has assisted the two emperors and won the hearts of the kings.

But when the first emperor passed away and the current emperor ascended the throne, Ning Guogong suddenly retreated bravely, unloaded his official position, and wanted to return to the countryside.

Even if the emperor tried everything to keep him, Ning Guogong did not change his words.

In the end, the emperor compromised and agreed to his request, but still retained the title of Duke of Ningguo for him. and promised him that when Ning Guogong wanted to become a minister, he would directly open his mouth that the official position of the Minister of Auxiliary States would always be reserved for him.

Fang Siqi's eyes kept blinking, "How did you know this legendary figure?" ”

Shen Zhongchen smiled and shook his head, "Qiqi, how can I know such a big person?" ”

"That..."Fang Siqi pointed to the porter leading the way in front of him, and whispered, "Then why would he let us in?" ”

You must know that the gate of this Ningguo Mansion is very difficult to enter, and even if the royal people want to visit, they have to agree to the master.

Shen Zhongchen replied in a low voice, "This matter is a long story... I'll tell you more about it when I have time. ”

The porter took the two of them around the house for a while, and then came to a Buddhist hall.

"Donor, it's here."

Shen Zhongchen took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and handed it to the porter, then took three sticks of incense from the cabinet next to the door of the Buddha hall and lit it, and kowtowed three times to the Buddha statue in the Buddha hall.

After inserting the incense on the incense burner outside the Buddha hall, Shen Zhongchen picked up the oil pot on the side, poured oil into an empty lamp holder, put it in the wick, and then lit it.

"Xiao Chenzi, didn't you say you didn't believe this?" A thin old man in high spirits came out of the Buddhist hall in rags, yawning in his mouth, "Why are you so pious today?" ”

Shen Zhongchen didn't speak, and waited until the lamps lit outside the Buddhist hall were filled with oil before he slowly responded, "Didn't the old man say it?" Buddha, if you believe in it, you will have it, and if you don't believe it, you will not have it. Now, when Xiaosheng encounters some trouble, he wants to ask the Buddha for help, so he naturally believes in Buddhism. ”

"You're too utilitarian!" The old man shook his head, "You ask for the Buddha's blessing with a purpose, and the Buddha will not help." ”

"The real Buddha can't do it, but the old man can."

"Hmph," the old man said with a blow of his nose and glaring, "You say that Lao Tzu is not a true Buddha?" Kotako, can you speak? Lao Tzu has been a monk for decades, chanting scriptures every day, and receiving the influence of Buddhism. Even if Lao Tzu is not a Buddha, he can be regarded as a half-immortal! ”

"Pay attention to your words, don't annoy me, beware of me cutting you!"

Shen Zhongchen looked at the old man quietly and did not respond.

The old man was stared at a little weakly, "Well, although you copied my scriptures, I paid for it!" ”

"As the saying goes, saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter. If I feed you, is it a merit? ”

"Old man, you once promised Xiaosheng a promise, saying that you would help Xiaosheng unconditionally once, I don't know if this is still counting?" Shen Zhongchen said.

The old man stroked the stubble on his chin, "The monks don't speak, so they naturally count." ”

"Then can you go to the Anguo Mansion in the name of the holy monk and help the lady of the Anguo Mansion to see the fate." Shen Zhongchen slowly explained his plan.

"What?!" When the old man heard this, he immediately exploded, "You actually want Lao Tzu to deceive people!" ”

"Xiao Chenzi, you have changed, what a pure person you used to be!" The old headache said, "Say, what changed you?" Did the woman behind you make you bad? It is said that the red face is in trouble, Xiao Chenzi, I advise you to quit sex. ”

"Old man, this is the insider-Siqi." Shen Zhongchen pulled Fang Siqi in front of him, "Siqi, this old man is an old friend I made before. ”

"Siqi has given you a salute." Fang Siqi blessed the old man and made a salute.

The old man pursed his mouth, as the so-called reaching out and not hitting the smiling person. Fang Siqi was courteous to him for several weeks, and when he saw himself smiling, the old man couldn't get angry if he wanted to.

In the end, he said dryly, "When did you become a parent?" Why didn't you invite me to a drink? ”

"Old man, you are a member of the Buddhist family, the six roots are pure, Xiaosheng doesn't want to use these mundane things to disturb your cultivation."

"Tsk... I really want to sew up your mouth, how can you say that! The old man pointed at Fang Siqi with his chin displeased, "Which girl?" It looks very extravagant, how did you marry a poor boy? ”

"Siqi is the second daughter of the Fang Mansion," Shen Zhongchen said, "This family affair was given by the emperor." ”

When the old man heard this, he looked at Fang Siqi twice, "The granddaughter of the Anguo Mansion?" ”

Then he squinted his eyes and looked at her with disdain, "Duchess An Guo is your grandmother, right?" killed someone on her birthday, and you still want to fool her with the words of the number of fate? You really have "filial piety"! ”

"Old man, Siqi is only my wife now, not the granddaughter of Duchess Anguo." Shen Zhongchen corrected, "Moreover, today's incident was not done by us, we were just framed and blamed." ”

"Blame the blame? Then you can prove your innocence! You have such a sharp mouth and a smart head, what are you doing with these pretending to be ghosts? The old man said bluntly, "Lao Tzu, I can't get used to this kind of indiscriminate means!" ”

"Although the means are indiscriminate, they are expensive and easy to use." Shen Zhongchen was not annoyed, "Old man, don't you often say that no matter what the method, the fastest and least loss-making method is the best way?" ”

"I... I—" the old man froze for a moment, "That's it, I can't talk about you!" ”

"Then go to the Anguo Mansion..."

"Lao Tzu, I don't want to go to a pickled place like Anguo Mansion." The old man said disgustedly, "Don't worry, Lao Tzu will find someone to deal with this matter." ”

"In this way, thank you to the old man."

"Thanks, get out of here," the old man said with a glare, "I'm annoyed to see you!" Don't come to me lately! ”
