Chapter 205: Return
Bao Yuan was stubborn, although every time she scolded in front of her mother, she would make her unhappy, but every time she mentioned Lin Jieyu, she couldn't help but scold.
Bai Ling was surprised to hear it, "There is still this kind of origin." ”
"yes, by mistake." Zheng Shu also sighed, "It's really hard to prevent." ”
Qu Shi on the bed really put down the book at this time, she looked at Zheng Shu with a serious face, "The harem always has to add new people, this is nothing to ...... prevent"
"Niangniang, no, you don't know this Lin Jieyu her"
"Okay, Bao Yuan," Zheng Shu immediately interrupted Bao Yuan's words, "Don't talk to Niang Niang about these unhappy things." ”
Bao Yuan was dumb again, and his face was a little red with anger.
Qu Shi looked at the two people in front of him a little strangely, "...... What happened to Lin Jieyu? ”
"It's nothing, sissy." Zheng Shu replied with a smile, "The left and right are just the ones where the concubines in the palace compete for favor and power, and Bao Yuan is young and can't stand it." ”
Qu Shi looked at Bao Yuan, and followed Zheng Shu's words and said a few words about Bao Yuan.
Bai Ling knelt not far away and listened quietly to the words of the three of them, looking at the expressions of several people, she suddenly realized that the concubine might not know about the tragedy in the Yinfeng Garden a few days ago. Zheng Shu is like a big sieve standing beside Qu Shi, and will first do a round of filtering of the information around her, so as not to let the too tragic news fall into Qu Shi's ears and make her sad for no reason.
Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
Bai Ling lowered his eyes and thought, and heard Qu Shi continue to say to Bao Yuan that he should be cautious in his words and deeds in the palace, so as not to be persuaded by the truth.
This is of course the most correct reason, but it sounds ridiculous at this time, what is the value of this kind of survival wisdom in the deep palace? Looking at Lin Jieyu's perverse behavior and the holy favor she has received now, Bai Ling actually wanted to laugh for a while.
"In short," Bai Ling said softly, "For these people sent by Father-in-law Jia, we can pay attention to whether he and Lin Jieyu are involved first, and we can see later." ”
Zheng Shu thought about it for a while, and sighed lightly, "If it's just one or two people, it's okay, but now there are seven suspicious ......."
"I think it's okay," Bai Ling said, "mainly because of the clever methods of Granny Shu before, who put these people in the outer courtyard to do things, and only the old people brought out of the Qu family were left by Niangniang's side." As long as we remain vigilant, there should be no major storms for the time being. Until there is tangible evidence, we can only slowly figure it out. ”
Qu Shi looked at Bai Ling's serious appearance, "Are you ...... Any thoughts? ”
"Not yet...... For the time being, I have sorted out the line of Jia Yuchun first," Bai Ling replied honestly, "But there is still a place outside the palace that is worth exploring." ”
"Where?"
"Donglin Temple." Bai Ling replied, "I want to go to Donglin Temple in the near future." ”
The other three were a little puzzled for a while, and Bao Yuan tilted his head, "What are you doing in Donglin Temple?" ”
"Yesterday, Niangniang asked me to go to Chuxiu Palace to see Lin Jieyu's insomnia, and I knew that she would go to Donglin Temple for incense at the end of every month, so I wanted to go and see it."
Bai Ling replied seriously, "People like Lin Jieyu don't look like they believe in the reincarnation of ghosts and gods, but she goes every month." This month, Donglin Temple repaired the temple, and several major roads were closed, and she would rather not take a sedan chair to walk...... I guess there's some reason for that. ”
Yes, in addition to this, she also had to personally verify the fire that Qinglian said and the weapon fight mentioned in the scroll. But to be honest, Bai Ling doesn't have much affection for Donglin Temple, and a group of monks who can make evil sachets into big business that the government and the court participate in are probably just wolves in sheep's clothing.
Qu Shi sighed lightly and slowly leaned on the soft pillow behind him, "Why does it seem that things are getting bigger and bigger......"
Zheng Shu looked at Qu Shi and replied a little helplessly, "Niangniang, if the concubines in the harem really collude with the eunuchs and install private ...... in the palace It was a major event that shocked the harem in any dynasty, and it was originally insignificant. ”
Qu Shi was silent for a moment, shook his head lightly and said, "What's the point of fighting back and forth like this, it seems that the east wind overwhelms the west wind, and the west wind overpowers the east wind, but if it spreads out, it will only increase the laughing stock, and it will only be a loss." ”
"That's right, putting the mother's name and that kind of woman together, it's cheaper for her!" Bao Yuan gritted his teeth and said.
"Niangniang think twice, it's too early to say this, I can only take one step at a time," Bai Ling continued, "And the matter of going to Donglin Temple, I have to trouble Niangniang to help me again." ”
“…… What do you want to do? Qu asked.
"If it's possible, can you first use your or the Qu family's name to make a letter of worship to the Donglin Temple, and make an appointment to ask the monks in the temple to explain the Buddha's principles to me." Bai Ling said softly, with a little tiredness in her eyes, "After all, I have been praying for incense for so long, and there are some things that I can't understand, so it's time to ask the masters." ”
Qu Shi thought for a moment, "...... It's not that hard, but when? ”
"The sooner the better." Bai Ling replied softly.
……
After coming out of the main hall, Bai Ling was already a little sleepy and couldn't open his eyes, to some extent, staying up late is probably a powerful sleeping pill, but it only takes seven or eight hours to take effect.
Since that night in the Wind Garden, Bai Ling has barely slept well.
She often dreams of Xiao Man, Xiao Man in the dream changes his face, one moment is Bai Yi, one moment is fourteen, and even once she directly becomes herself, and every time she wakes up, she finds herself in a cold sweat.
The panic was only temporary, and after calming down a little, Bai Ling quickly understood what was happening in Yinfeng Garden, which probably aroused a strong fear in her subconscious, so she even saw some enchanting ghosts in her dreams a few times, and when she looked closely, she found that they all had Lin Jieyu's face.
But it doesn't matter...... In my dream, I was scared of my own painted skin, and when I woke up, I went to take them all off.
Bai Ling returned to the east side hall, called for a basin of warm water to wash her face, and after recovering some energy, she sat back at the table alone, spread out the letter, and wrote a short message.
Then, Bai Lingqiang opened the door with vigor and shouted to the few people who copied and wrote under the tree, "Chu Lan." ”
Chu Lan raised her head and saw that Bai Ling was waving to her, she jumped down from her chair and ran over in a bit of confusion.
"What do you command?"
Bai Ling handed the letter to Chu Lan, "You go to the Tai Hospital now and deliver this letter to a person named Bai Yi, who should be on duty in the palace today." ”。
