There was a slight pecking sound, which woke up Yao Hei'er, who didn't dare to fall asleep, and then, I heard Qin's mother whispering outside the door: "Are you up?" ”

Yao Hei'er hurriedly sat up in her clothes and said in a low voice, "Mom, I'm up." With Yao Hei'er's answer, the door was quietly pushed open, and Qin's mother was holding a tray in her hand, and there was a bowl of rice faintly in the tray.

Yao Hei'er raised her eyes to look out the window, and there was still only a bright moonlight.

Mother Qin put the tray on the table and said, "Girl, I'll just eat a little, although it's just a bowl of noodles, it's hot." ”

By the moonlight outside the window, Yao Hei'er devoured the bowl of noodles. This is the most delicious and luscious meal in more than half a month. Mother Qin watched silently beside her, no need to ask, she also knew what kind of life Yao Hei'er had been living these days. In the past, how could this dignified and elegant lady gobble up so disregarding the image?

After eating the noodles, Yao Hei'er took another cup of tea handed over by Qin's mother and drank it all.

Mother Qin said: "Girl, there is no one at this time, you go out quietly with me, just wait for me at Ciyun Nunnery, I will come when I serve my wife, and I will arrive at about the same time." ”

Yao Hei'er asked casually, "Where is Mrs. Luo going today?" Didn't I go with you to Tzu Yun Nunnery? ”

Mother Qin paused, and Fang said softly, "Mrs. Luo went to Du's house today." ”

Yao Hei'er then remembered that what those people said yesterday was that Du Xin and the sister of the Yong family got married today, since Uncle Wang is a matchmaker, Mrs. Luo naturally wants to go to the banquet, knowing that Qin's mother is afraid of causing her unhappiness, she smiled at Qin's mother and said, "Mom, it's nothing." ”

Qin's mother didn't answer, because she looked at Yao Hei'er's clothes again, and said, "Then Ciyun Nunnery doesn't allow men to enter and leave, you should also change into women's clothes." As he spoke, he went back to the room to get a set of his own clothes, and said with a reluctant smile: "Girl, this is the old woman's clothes when she was young, and they are not good, just because I am afraid that you are wearing gorgeous clothes, and there is no one around to follow, which makes people suspicious." ”

Yao Hei'er nodded gratefully, and Mother Qin helped her pull the woman's hair in a bun and change it into a woman's decoration. Qin's mother wrapped her old clothes in a bag again, handed them to Yao Hei'er, and quietly sent her out through the back door.

Ciyun Nunnery, located about two miles east of the palace, has always been the place where the female relatives of the dignitaries of the Hancheng City burn incense and make wishes. Yao Hei'er has also been here a few times in previous years. Just because Yao Hei'er at that time was the wife of General Shenwu, she was personally received by the abbot every time. Now, Yao Hei'er, who is dressed as an ordinary person, is naturally not qualified to work as an abbot, which also avoids the risk of Yao Hei'er being recognized.

A sister-in-law in her twenties, when she saw someone coming into the nunnery, she hurriedly greeted her and inquired, and heard that Yao Hei'er just asked for a stick of incense, so she was a little unhappy, and pointed to the place where Yao Hei'er asked for incense, so she turned around and left, leaving Yao Hei'er with a proud back.

Yao Hei'er wished that no one would pay attention to her, so according to her sister-in-law's instructions, she asked for incense, burned it in front of the incense burner, silently prayed a few words, then stood up, walked around the courtyard, found an inconspicuous corner and sat down, and only pretended to rest.

Fortunately, this Ciyun Nunnery is huge, the incense is very vigorous, and there is an endless stream of pilgrims, and no one pays attention to Yao Hei'er who is like a weed.

The sun slowly rose, shining on the red-walled and golden-roofed Tzuyun Nunnery, a dazzling splendor. The rising cigarettes, in this splendor, are more and more dreamlike, like fog and electricity.

Yao Hei'er had been sitting silently in this inconspicuous corner for more than an hour. In this quiet corner, smelling the smell of cigarettes lingering around her, Yao Hei'er's heart is extraordinarily quiet. This rare tranquility made her slowly figure out what had happened in the past few days, and she was waiting for Mother Qin to help her verify it.

Suddenly, a few nuns ran by, and another said, "Quick! Fast! The people in the prince's young master's mansion are here! ”

Another said: "What are you panicking about? It's not a lady, it's just a grandmother! ”

The sister-in-law said, "What do you know?" This grandmother is the most decent in the palace, and she is also here to disperse the menstruation for her wife. We can't afford to offend! ”

Yao Hei'er knew in her heart that Mother Qin had arrived. I also understand in my heart the pomp of the rich and noble, even if it is a grandmother, there must be a group of slaves following, I go over at this time, if I am seen, it is not good, so I just sit down, and ask Mother Qin to finish their family affairs, and then go to find her.

After about half an hour, Yao Hei'er grabbed two handfuls of soil on the ground beside him, wiped them on his face, slowly stood up, and walked forward. ran into Qin's mother head-on, followed by a mother-in-law, and walked to the back. Mother Qin also saw Yao Hei'er, so she said to the mother-in-law beside her: "You look at the Sanjing in front, I will go to the abbot's room to say a word, and I will come." ”

The woman said yes and turned away. Mother Qin gave Yao Hei'er a look, just walked back, and Yao Hei'er followed behind. The two of them came to a no-man's place in the backyard, and Qin's mother picked up a clean stone and sat down. Yao Hei'er walked over.

Without waiting for Yao Hei'er to ask, Qin's mother said anxiously and quickly: "Miss Yao, we can't be polite." I also know what you want to ask. I will tell you what I know. Just listen to your heart. ”

Yao Hei'er nodded.

Qin's mother said: "Girl, you know, my son has always been serving the master. After your Yao family was copied, our lord often invited General Du and General Yong to come to the house for dinner, and most of them were served by Shun'er.

"Since the new emperor ascended the throne, because he was jealous of General Yao's friendship with King Zhen back then, and feared that King Zhen would threaten the throne, he and General Du began to plan to clear King Zhen and the Yao family, as well as several other courtiers who had supported King Zhen. Just because our lord is friendly with General Yao, he forced our lord to plot to kill King Zhen and General Yao.

"Our lord didn't follow. Later, our young master once went out to play, and met a few soldiers under General Yong, and somehow, a fight broke out. Several of the young master's men actually killed one of the soldiers. You also know that our lord is almost fifty years old before he got this son, which has always been like a treasure, the lifeblood of the master. The old man panicked for a while, so he had to beg General Yong and ask him to calm down the matter, preferring to go bankrupt and appease the soldier's family. This General Yong didn't even ask for a tael of silver from the master, so he settled the matter. Therefore, the old man is grateful to General Yong. Later, General Yong came to discuss with the old man again...... discussed the murder of King Zhen and the Yao family, and the master had to agree.

"Just because the old man is familiar with General Yao, and he is very good at writing and ink, and he is used to imitating human handwriting, he forged a letter written by General Yao to King Zhen, to the effect that General Yao persuaded King Zhen to seek to usurp the throne. This letter rightfully fell into the hands of the Holy One. The saint took this letter that he knew was false and made a big fuss. General Du stood up again, killed his relatives in righteousness, and reported General Yao's many illegal acts at home on weekdays, and the saint was even more angry, and immediately sent people to raid the palace of King Zhen and Yao's house.

"Our lord got on the thief ship and couldn't get off, so the three families became more and more affectionate. That day...... That day......"

Qin's mother couldn't say any more, Yao Hei'er burst into tears and said, "Mom, think about it, my family has suffered such a catastrophe, is there anything else I can't bear?" Just say it. ”

Qin's mother said again: "On that day, the master invited General Du and General Yong to have wine at home, and General Du mentioned it, and now he is very tired of you, General Yong said that he has a sister-in-law, and he is willing to marry General Du." The two laughed, so they asked the master to be a matchmaker, but the master couldn't shirk it, so he had to rely on ......"

Yao Hei'er sneered: "Mom, the matter of taking me off was originally planned by Du Xin a long time ago. Before our house was raided, he had already built me a house in a small village a hundred miles away, and was ready to send me there. Even if there is no Yongdong's sister, there will be others. This is nothing, but I hate Uncle Wang, who has been friends with my father for half his life, and actually buried my father's life with his own hands! ”

Mother Qin was surprised: "There is such a thing? On that day, General Yao wanted to promise you to General Du, and Mrs. Wen also mentioned it to our wife, and she was very dissatisfied with this marriage. It's just that what puzzles me is, since General Du married you, why did he want to murder the Yue family? ”

Yao Hei'er's eyes shot a cold light of hatred, and he said hatefully: "Du Xin is already good friends with Duanjun. My father promised me to him that day, that is, to bow his head to the faint king, hoping that Dusin would reconcile him. I never thought that Dusin hated my father so much, and I gave birth to three more daughters, which had long made Dusin dissatisfied. On the one hand, there is the Yue family, which is hated by the saint, and the chaff that makes him want to take a break, and on the other hand, there is the favor of the saint, and it is not surprising what choice a person with wolf ambitions like Du Xin will make. ”

Mother Qin sighed and said, "After all, it was General Yao, who chose the wrong east bed that day. Miss Yao, what should you do now? ”

Yao Hei'er shook her head helplessly and said, "Mom, you said, I'm a weak woman with three ignorant daughters, what else can I do?" I can't wait to kill the faint king and destroy the Du family, but I don't have such power. ”

Mother Qin hurriedly said, "Miss Yao, this is a big rebellion, don't dare to say it again." If someone hears it...... "Hurriedly looked around, took the following words, and sighed.

Yao Hei'er's eyes suddenly showed a trace of sadness, and said, "Mom, do you know where my mother and sister-in-law have gone?" ”

When Mother Qin heard this, her eyes suddenly flickered, and she was waiting to say nothing.
