Chapter 099: Deep in the White Clouds

With an idea in mind, the thrush felt much more determined. So she took the light veil that Scarlet had changed, sat on the edge of the bed and folded it while saying, "When a lady from the Zhao family came over today, she said that something terrible had happened in the capital recently!" ”

"What's the matter?" Scarlet was really attracted to attention. Life in the courtyard of the deep house is very boring, either a few women fighting back and forth, or the trivial matters of the Zhang family and the Li family. Due to the lack of information, when something worth digging out comes out, their ears stretch out longer than anyone else's.

She said that just a few days ago, the third prince and the eldest prince of the Lin family were assassinated outside the palace! That's all the people in the city are talking about right now! ”

Scarlet was really taken aback by the news. I only heard her exclaim: "This ...... That's too audacious! ”

"Isn't it, the courage to kill the prince in broad daylight is really ......," Thrush sighed.

Suddenly, Scarlet Er seemed to remember something, and asked with a little doubt: "......Who is this eldest son of the Lin family?"

"Coincidentally, it's the son named Lin Guanyun that you said yesterday!"

"Huh?! Isn't he in Gangnam? Scarlet's eyes widened suddenly, with an expression of disbelief.

The thrush said again: "At first, the slave didn't dare to believe it, and I asked the lady of the Zhao family several times before I was convinced!" ”

Scarlet hurriedly asked, "What about that...... How are they doing now? It won't be ...... already"

"Not dead, but I heard they were dying at the time. As for what happens now, I don't know, it's hard to say......"

Scarlet's heart that had just been put down was suspended by the thrush's words again, only to hear her mutter: "How can this be...... Isn't he a martial artist? ”

Thrush sighed and comforted, "Miss, don't be too upset. There are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck, this may be a catastrophe that Lin Gongzi is destined to encounter......"

I heard Scarlet suddenly ask, "Who did this?" ”

"I heard that the lady of the Zhao family said that someone in the martial arts did it, and I don't know how the third prince and Lin Gongzi could offend the people of the rivers and lakes!" The thrush deliberately accentuated his tone, emphasizing the word "Jianghu".

When Fei'er heard this, she stopped talking, her eyes were lowered, and the look on her face was a little worried and a little suspicious, as if she was thinking about something. When Thrush saw her like this, she didn't say any more, but silently folded the gown and put it in the cupboard.

Fei'er was stunned alone for a while before she said again: "Mei'er, you go to the front yard to inquire again, and by the way, ask how Gongzi Lin is now." ”

The thrush was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "Girl, aren't you embarrassed to be a slave?" I hadn't seen two people in the front yard, and I didn't know each other very well, so I suddenly ran to inquire about it...... Not suitable, right? Why don't you wait for the master to come back in a few days, and you can knock on the side and ask a few words? Seeing that Fei'er suddenly looked at her, she hurriedly added, "Master, they must have been well-informed and well-informed outside, aren't they?" ”

Scarlet sneered when she heard this, and said, "Am I tired of being a girl?" Dare to ask such a thing in front of the master? Although he is a businessman, he is not soft on killing people. Maybe ......" The latter words did not come out, and she swallowed it raw. There are some things that are okay to think about once in a while, but it is absolutely impossible to say them.

So the thrush hesitated: "That...... The slave maid will go to the front yard and ask? ”

Scarlet had already changed her mind, waved her hand and said, "That's it, you don't have to go." When I went to my wife's courtyard, I said that we were going to Huayan Temple to make incense. ”

"Huh? Oh, okay. The thrush walked out in response, but there was some regret in his heart. She originally wanted to ask some clues from Liu Muzhi through Scarlet's mouth, but who knew that these branches were born, but she didn't expect it.

In Baiyun Mountain on the outskirts of Beijing, a horse-drawn carriage drove slowly over the mountain road, slower and slower, and finally stopped.

"Lan'erβ€”" Zhilan heard her mother calling her in her sleep, and then she felt someone shaking her body, and shouted, "Miss, wake upβ€”"

Zhilan opened her eyes, only to realize that she had accidentally fallen asleep in the car. It's a good thing, because she's finally getting used to the carriage.

"It's here, let's get off!" Mrs. Lin said. Huaxin pulled Zhilan up from her seat and straightened her somewhat loose bun for her.

Ah Zi, who was already waiting outside, opened the curtain, and the bright sunlight suddenly shone so brightly that Zhilan couldn't open her eyes. It took a while to get out of the car before she could see what she was seeing. It turned out that they had walked to the mountainside, and when they looked into the distance, they saw the mountains in a long way, the scenery was beautiful, and the mountain breeze was blowing, which made people feel refreshed. Zhilan turned around and looked behind her, only to see a solemn and majestic temple standing high against the mountains, and the gold plaque on a blue background hanging above the mountain gate reflected a dazzling light in the sun, with three big characters written on it: "Huayan Temple".

"Lan'er, come here." Mrs. Lin beckoned to Zhilan.

"Huh-" Zhilan answered and walked over, followed by Huaxin and a few guards. Originally, Zhilan was taking care of her brother at home, but was brought out by Mrs. Lin, saying that she wanted to pray for her family. Although Zhilan did not agree with this, she heard that the Huayan Temple was located in Baiyun Mountain, and the scenery was beautiful, so she thought that it was not bad to come out and wander around, so she would go on a spring outing, so she happily followed.

This Huayan Temple is worthy of being a famous temple of ancient temples, although it is in the deep mountains, the traffic is inconvenient, but the good men and women are still in an endless stream, and the incense is very vigorous. Among the pilgrims, it seems that there are more women. Judging from the different looks of the people, they may be praying for blessings, or for marriage, or for wealth, or for heirs...... In short, when a person desires, he prays for a lot.

Zhilan looked at these people passing by with great interest as she walked, and unconsciously followed Mrs. Lin to the front of the main hall. When she entered the door, she accidentally collided with a woman who was about to come out of it. Zhilan hurriedly took a step back to apologize, but when she raised her eyes, she felt that the face in front of her seemed familiar. Just as he was about to ask, he heard his mother call from behind: "Xiao'e? ”

I saw that the woman was also looking at them with a shocked face, and muttered, "Mrs. ......" This timid voice is not Xiao'e.

When they met Xiao'e here, Mrs. Lin and Zhilan were very surprised, and when they were about to ask her how she got to the capital, they saw a thrush flash out from behind and said, "This lady, I'm afraid you recognize the wrong person, right?" ”
