Shu Rusheng has never had the habit of taking a nap, but she doesn't want her to be around like her. After using the noon meal, I asked Ni'er and Ning Lu to clean up and go back to their room to rest, and they wanted to stay in the room and read the book.

Ni'er and Shu Rusheng knew her habits after staying for a long time, followed Ning Lu to clean up, and sent them to the small kitchen for the kitchen to be cleaned. took Ning Lu back to the room, Ning Lu was a little puzzled that Shu Rusheng had no one around, so he said: "Ni'er, if there is no one around Miss, if there is any need, how can we hear the call, you will go to the room to guard Miss." ”

When Ni'er heard that she was leaving, she grabbed her and said, "Aunt Ning, I was like this before. But Miss said that she didn't like to be disturbed by others when she read, and I had prepared tea and pastries on the side, Miss was reading and didn't want to eat, and she drank some water when she was thirsty. Some of Miss's habits are not allowed to be disturbed, so you can rest assured, if you are really not at ease, you will go and see it. ”

Ning Lu knew that she knew Shu Rusheng's habits, so she agreed. Ning Lu sat embroidering clothes, and saw that Ni'er did not go to sleep, but was looking at the Book of Poetry. She knew that Ni'er was originally also a young lady, and it was normal for her to be literate. didn't say anything, just cared about embroidering the clothes on his hands, Ning Lu had Qi Shiyuan and put his mind on the hearts of everyone in the Qi family, and if he had nothing to do, he would stew some supplements or make some clothes with them.

Ning Lu and Ni'er looked at the same time, Ni'er went to the small kitchen to prepare flower tea first, and brought it to Shu Rusheng's room with Ning Lu. When they first came in, they watched Shu Rusheng get up from her position and stretch her waist, and it could be seen that she had only gotten up to rest now. Ning Lu walked up first, and Ni'er put those on the table, poured one and handed it to Shu Rusheng. Shu Rusheng took the drink and looked at Ning Lu cleaning up the soft seat that she had just messed up, she said with a sip: "Look at the weather today is not hot or cold, I haven't been to the temple for a long time, let's go and take a look." ”

Ni'er put the tea cup that Shu Rusheng had drunk back on the table, turned to look at Shu Rusheng and said, "Okay, I'll go down and let someone prepare a sedan chair." ”

Shu Rusheng nodded, and Ni'er retreated.

Ni'er ran to the storeroom where Lin Ge was, and when she saw what he was counting, she stepped forward and said, "Brother Lin Ge, the young lady said that she wanted to go to the temple. ”

Ni'er said her intention, Lin Ge put down the account book after listening, nodded and said: "Okay, Ni'er, I'll prepare a sedan chair, by the way, I'll ask Qi Yuan Qi Hui." Although I go to the temple, it is important to be safe and must be accompanied by martial arts. ”

Ni'er knew that Shu Rusheng had always been closely protected by them, so she didn't say anything, just nodded and walked out. Lin Ge first handed the account book to a subordinate next to him, and then walked out.

When Ning Lu went out, he prepared Shu Rusheng's clothes to go out, and Ni'er had already put them on when she came back. Ni'er saw that Shu Rusheng was ready, and said, "Miss, do you want to bring some tribute and incense candles?" ”

Shu Rusheng asked Ning Lu to tidy up, then sat down and said, "Of course, since you go, of course you have to burn some incense and candles." By the way, Aunt Ning, you can stay at home, every time you go out, a few brothers will follow a few people, you can stay at home to rest or familiarize yourself with this courtyard, so you don't have to always follow Ni'er to do things. ”

Ning Lu owed the courtesy and said, "Okay, they can rest assured when they go, Miss will go early and return early, and I will make you some snacks in Jingzhou when she comes back." ”

When Shu Rusheng heard what he was eating, his eyes lit up for a while, and he said, "Okay, Ni'er, let's go." ”

After finishing speaking, Shu Rusheng walked in front and Ni'er followed behind. Shu Rusheng waited in the hall for the sedan chair prepared by Lin Ge, while Ni'er went to the treasury to get some incense and candles and tribute. Qi Yuan walked into the hall, raised his fist and said, "Miss is ready, Ni'er is waiting for you outside." ”

After hearing this, Shu Rusheng walked out, and Qi Yuan followed behind him. Walking to the gate of the courtyard and seeing that Ni'er was already waiting by the sedan chair with a bamboo basket, Shu Rusheng walked to the sedan chair, Qi Hui stepped forward and lifted the front curtain of the sedan chair, and waited until Shu Rusheng went in and sat down before putting it down.

Qi Hui walked to the side, got on his horse, and began to move towards the temple as soon as he drove the pedestrian.

When he arrived at the temple, Shu Rusheng asked Qi Yuan and Qi Hui to be outside the main hall, and only took Ni'er to go in to offer incense. Lighting three sticks of incense, Shu Rusheng knelt in front of the Buddha and worshiped three times sincerely. After getting up, she handed the three sticks of incense to Ni'er, who went to insert them into the incense burner.

After worshipping, Shu Rusheng wanted to go to the backyard of the temple to have a look, and the four of them went to the backyard. When Shu Rusheng was looking at the scenery in the backyard, he only heard the footsteps of people coming, Qi Yuan Qi Hui raised his vigilance, and the man walked to Shu Rusheng's side and said, "Yao Huan has seen Miss, but I didn't expect to meet Miss here." ”

Shu Rusheng saw that it was Yao Huan, and saw that there was only one maid beside her, but Lu Qing didn't see it. Yao Huan was not disgusted in Shu Rusheng's eyes, but admired her a little, and she had never seen her rude after seeing her so many times. Shu Rusheng also treated him politely, and said with a bow: "Yes, I didn't expect to meet Miss here." ”

Yao Huan smiled, as if thinking about something, and said, "Can Yao Huan go with Miss to see the scenery in the backyard of this temple, and talk by the way." ”

Shu Rusheng saw that the smile on her face was not the same as just now, and she turned her back to the maid she brought, but there was something. Shu Rusheng also wanted to know what she wanted to express, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I still want to talk to Miss about some things in my heart." Then you don't have to talk to Miss, talk to Miss alone, Miss doesn't mind. ”

When Qi Yuan heard Shu Rusheng say this, he stopped: "Miss, the young master has instructed you to be close to you. ”

Shu Rusheng glanced at him, pretended to reprimand him harshly, and said: "Brother usually let you be close to me because he was worried that something would happen to me, but now Miss and I don't bring attendants, Miss is just a woman, is it possible that she wants to harm Miss Ben." Just stay here and don't let anyone approach. ”

Shu Rusheng was saying that the words of others were a little heavier, and she hoped that Qi Yuan and Qi Hui could understand who else she was referring to.

After that, she and Yao Huan walked forward, and Ni'er saw that Qi Yuan didn't have any intention of going, so she stopped. Yao Huan's maid also stopped, and when she saw the two of them guarding the road ahead, she became nervous for a while.

Shu Rusheng and Yao Huan walked a little farther, Yao Huan turned her head to see that the figures of the four of them were not far from here, and when she turned around, she saw a small tree in front of her that could cover the two of them, so she said, "Miss, go there and see, the scenery over there is good." ”

Shu Rusheng wanted to know what medicine she was selling in her gourd, so he followed her to the small tree. She wanted to say something, but she saw Yao Huan kneeling down, she was puzzled and wanted to help her up, Yao Huan refused and said: "I know that Miss is different from others, but I have something to give to Miss." ”

Shu Rusheng was very puzzled when she saw her like this, and said, "Miss, please get up, why am I different from others." ”

Yao Huan saw her puzzled face, and she thought to herself that she would open up anyway, and she didn't want to hide it, so she opened the door and said something. stood up, handed a booklet in his waist to Shu Rusheng, and said: "The first time I saw Miss, I felt that Miss was different from other Misses, Yao Huan heard that the lord of Dunwan Jing'an Chang County had gone to Jizhou, and he must have passed by Jinzhou City. I also feel that the young lady's temperament, conversation, and the dress and behavior of the people around her are not as good as ordinary people, so Yao Huan thinks that you are the lord of Changjun. ”

Shu Rusheng saw that what she said was not bad, she looked at the booklet, turned a few pages, and it turned out to be some accounts. And what was written on it were the names of some officials she had heard from Ling Hengyi in Kyoto, and she was stunned for a while. said: "Yao Huan, what is this, where are you from?" ”

Yao Huan looked up at Shu Rusheng, then lowered her head and said with a little trembling as she spoke, and said, "Back to the county lord, this is the treasure that my brother bribed officials and some officials sent to their homes in the early days. Yao Huan knew that the county lord would not believe it, how could Yao Huan come up with something that harmed his brother. That is because Yao Huan believes that one day his brother will be found out by the court, since this is the case, it is better to report it earlier, so that the people of Jinzhou City can suffer less. ”

Shu Rusheng looked up at her, believing that her vision was not wrong. I always felt that she was kind, but now that she has handed over the booklet, her brother doesn't have to run around with Qi Shiyuan anymore. nodded for a while, and said with a smile on his face: "Yao Huan, thank you." I can't imagine that you have such insight. Don't worry, I'll help you verify your expectations, but I hope I haven't checked the authenticity of this account book, and we're still meeting us for the first time. Since I didn't reveal my identity, it was because I wanted to find out about the security and finances of Jinzhou City over the years. Also, Ni'er doesn't know my identity, she only knows that I'm a young lady from Kyoto, so please help keep this secret. ”

Yao Huan said with a bow: "Yes, Chief Xie County." ”

Yao Huan showed a look of loss on her face at this time, turned around, and walked back step by step. Shu Rusheng felt a little sentimental when he saw her figure at this time. However, she understands that once the authenticity of this booklet is verified, then the Yao family will have the possibility of going to prison.

Shu Rusheng hid the booklet behind her and walked behind her. When Qi Yuan saw that they were back, his heart was relieved. When Shu Rusheng walked to Qi Yuan's side, Yao Huan had already left here with her maid. Shu Rusheng watched them walk away, then took out the booklet and handed it to Qi Yuan and said, "Brother Qi Yuan handed over this booklet to his brother, and he has to hand it over to him in person." ”

Qi Yuan heard that Shu Rusheng's tone was not as good as the usual joke, and thought of Yao Huan's expression when he walked back just now, so he said, "Okay, I'll go now." Qi Hui accompanied the young lady to finish shopping, and then went back. ”

Qi Yuan took the booklet, hid it in his clothes, and left. Shu Rusheng watched him leave here, greatly relieved, and said with his usual smile to the two of them: "In that case, let's go shopping and go back." ”

After finishing speaking, the two of them followed behind Shu Rusheng to take a casual look at the scenery in the temple.
