Chapter 368: Madame's Letter of Recommendation
It's just that at this moment, seeing that there is a trace of melancholy between his eyebrows, he seems to have some worries, and there is a slight sound of footsteps outside the door, and then the figure flickers, and a graceful and luxurious lady walks in from outside with a smile, it is Mrs. Yongtan.

"Dongbai has seen Madame! Dongbai took the liberty to come to the door to disturb him, and asked for forgiveness!" Seeing the visitor, Zheng Dongbai stepped forward and gave a salute.
Mrs. Yongtan waved her hand and said with a smile: "Zheng Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, please sit down." ”
The two sat down separately, and after a few words of greeting, Mrs. Yongqin took a sip of tea, glanced at each other, and said with a smile: "Zheng Gongzi is going to leave immediately, go to Beijing, and compete for the gold list, the concubine is here to wish Zheng Gongzi a smooth journey, success, and success, and the title of the gold list!"
Zheng Dongbai thanked him, but he still couldn't hide the lingering melancholy between his eyebrows.
When Mrs. Yongtan saw it, she knew something was wrong, so she asked, "What's the matter, what's the difficulty of Gongzi Zheng?"
"No, nothing. Zheng Dongbai didn't want to say more, so he said.
Mrs. Yongtan observed the words and knew that the other party must have something difficult, she attached great importance to the other party, and immediately said: "If Zheng Gongzi has any difficulties, although he said bluntly, the concubine can be weak, even if she can't help much, she can help come up with ideas." ”
Zheng Dongbai hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed, but still said it, and said: "Don't hide it from Mrs., this trip to the blessed land of Bailu Mountain, Dongbai not only did not gain anything, but was confused for a while, went astray, and provoked a young man's anger, I am afraid that it will affect the spring exam that is about to start......"
Mrs. Yongtan was taken aback when she heard this, this trip to the blessed land of Bailu Mountain, many scholars provoked evil spirits, and she also heard about it, but she didn't expect that Zheng Dongbai was also recruited?
"Zheng Gongzi, are you telling the truth?" she asked in surprise.
Zheng Dongbai nodded, and his face was gloomy again.
Lady Yongtan's eyebrows furrowed. If this layer of Qinggang evil qi is not eliminated as soon as possible, it will be greatly detrimental to the scholar's imperial examination and fame, Zheng Dongbai is about to participate in the Spring Gang Examination at this moment, but he is contaminated with this layer of Qinggang evil spirit, which undoubtedly casts a heavy shadow on his trip to Beijing, and unjustifiably reduces the success of his gold list title by half.
Mrs. Yongtan was quite complaining at the moment, how could this Zheng Dongbai act so confused, reckless and abrupt, and provoke this evil spirit. But now is not the time to complain, she attaches great importance to the other party, and she really doesn't want to see the other party lose the opportunity to be named on the gold list this time because of the interference of evil spirits, the key is that in this way, most of the things between the other party and Cui Qingyan will be in the soup, even if it is not in the soup, it will have to be delayed for at least three years, which is really what she does not want to see.
After pondering for a while, she muttered to herself: "Since this is the case, then only by eliminating this Qinggang evil qi as soon as possible is the best policy......
Of course, Zheng Dongbai also knows this truth, and there are many ways to eliminate the evil qi, but in a short period of time, it is very difficult to completely eliminate the influence of this layer of Qinggang evil qi, and it is too late to time, only half a month's time, this spring exam is about to start, and it is really difficult for a strong man to eliminate this layer of evil qi before the spring exam, at least he can't see any possibility.
Mrs. Yongtan pondered for a while, seemed to have made a decision, raised her head, and saw the other party's depressed appearance, so she comforted: "Zheng Gongzi doesn't need to worry too much, this matter has not yet reached the end of the mountain, and there may be a turning point." ”
Zheng Dongbai was already in despair, and when he heard this, his spirits perked up, and he hurriedly asked: "I don't know if Mrs. has any good plans, please give me advice, Dongbai is grateful." ”
Mrs. Yongqin's eyes flashed, and she said slowly: "Don't hide it from Zheng Gongzi, there is a high cliff in the back mountain of the ancestral house of Jinhe in Hanoi, called Siguo Cliff, which is left by my ancestor Nong Yuangong, this cliff has no other length, but I have thought about it on the wall, which has a miraculous effect on eliminating evil spirits, maybe Zheng Gongzi can go to try the chance." ”
Zheng Dongbai was stunned at first, and then he was overjoyed, he knew that the other party said that Nong Yuangong was a quasi-saint of the Cui clan in Hanoi hundreds of years ago, as for this Siguo Cliff, he had not heard of it, but since it was a quasi-sanctuary left, it must be extraordinary, since the other party said so, he had thought about it in this cliff, and it had the miraculous effect of eliminating evil energy, that was true, and the other party did not deceive himself.
Anyway, this is already his last straw, and when he heard this, he immediately got up and gave a deep salute, and said: "Madame's kindness, Dongbai is grateful, but in the future, Madame will have a life, and Dongbai dares to serve a small body!"
Mrs. Yongtan waved her hand and said, "Zheng Gongzi is serious. The concubine did this, but also for the sake of Zheng Gongzi being the young generation of heroes in Jiangzuo West Road, and I couldn't bear Zheng Gongzi to lose his will because of a momentary mistake, and Qingyun lost his will, and the court lost people, which can be regarded as a good deed that the concubine is in Jiangzuo West Road and has done for Jiangzuo West Taoist Shilin. ”
Zheng Dongbai was even more flattered in his heart, and thanked him repeatedly, but at this time he was a little worried, and said hesitantly: "It's just that Mrs. said that Si Guo Cliff is the important place of Madame's clan, Dongbai is an outsider, I'm afraid it will be difficult to enter." ”
What he said is also true, for the relics left by the former sanctuary such as Siguo Cliff, all the families and clans are regarded as forbidden and listed as important places of the clan, and they are not allowed to trespass, even if the children of the clan want to enter, there are many conditions, and an outsider like Zheng Dongbai basically has no possibility of entering.
Of course, Mrs. Yongtan also knew about this, but she couldn't think of any other way at the moment, so she had to give it a try, and she immediately said: "Zheng Gongzi don't worry, when I repair the book and hand it over to you, after you rush to the ancestral house of the family in Jinhe County, Hanoi, you will directly find my fourth brother Ting Mao and hand over the letter to him, and he will try his best to help you persuade the clan to facilitate this matter." ”
When Zheng Dongbai heard this, he was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly.
Mrs. Yongtan did not delay, and immediately called the maid Caiyun, brought pen and ink, and began to write this letter.
If you want to try your best to persuade the clan to agree to this, then how to write this letter is very important, in the letter, Mrs. Yongtan first praised Zheng Dongbai, there is no lack of praise, of course, Zheng Dongbai's own talent and qualifications are also there, Mrs. Yongtan's praise is not too exaggerated.
Of course, to persuade the clan to agree to this matter, this is obviously not enough, there are many young talents in this world, why can an outsider enter the Cui family's clan land.
So in the letter, she specially explained the matter of the blessed land of Bailu Mountain, in order to increase the success of this matter, she did not hesitate to make up some false lies, saying that this trip to the blessed land of Bailu Mountain, Cui Qingyan was taken care of by the other party a lot, and the reason why Zheng Dongbai got into trouble with this Qinggang evil spirit was all because of helping Cui Qingyan.
In short, in this letter, she said that Zheng Dongbai was a righteous and promising young talent, and the Qinggang evil he provoked was all because he worked hard to help Cui Qingyan, and Yunyun was kind to Cui Qingyan, so that the opposition and resistance in the clan to this matter would be much smaller.
If Cui Qingyan was here at the moment and saw the letter written by her aunt, she would definitely be so angry that she couldn't laugh or cry, and she didn't agree.
Not only that, in order to increase the success of this matter, Mrs. Yongqin deliberately used a more obscure pen and ink to point out the relationship between Cui Qingyan and Zheng Dongbai, although the words are still relatively vague, but she believes that after the clansmen read it, they will definitely understand it in their hearts.
It can be said that in order to help Zheng Dongbai, she did not hesitate to work.
After writing the letter, it was sealed in an envelope, sealed, and handed it to Zheng Dongbai, and Mrs. Yongqin said solemnly: "Zheng Gongzi, the concubine can help you, that's all, the rest depends on yourself, I hope Zheng Gongzi will do it himself." ”
Cui's Thinking Cliff, although it has a miraculous effect on eliminating evil energy, but it is not guaranteed to be successful, and the time is pressing, presumably Zheng Dongbai can't stay in the Thinking Cliff for long, whether he can think about it in just two or three days, and eliminate the evil spirit, it depends on his own chance.
Zheng Dongbai took the letter, his heart was overjoyed, and he was thankful.
At this time, Mrs. Yongtan glanced at Caiyun, the maid waiting next to her, and asked, "Caiyun, where is Qingyan, what else is she doing?"
The maid Caiyun stepped forward, glanced at Zheng Dongbai next to her, and said softly: "Miss Qingyan said that she is very tired at the moment, so she won't come to see Zheng Gongzi, but I just wish Zheng Gongzi a smooth journey to Beijing and success." ”
After Zheng Dongbai heard this, he was a little disappointed in his heart, but he quickly replied to his mood, and now he got a letter of recommendation from Mrs. Yongqin, and he is expected to go to Cui's Siguo Cliff, face the wall and think about it, eliminate the evil spirit, and his heart is happy and excited, although he didn't see Cui Qingyan before leaving, he didn't care too much.
Because of the urgency of time, he didn't stay here longer at the moment, and after taking the letter, he got up to say goodbye, and Mrs. Yongtan didn't stay longer, and after a few words of encouragement, he asked the maid Caiyun to send off the guests.
The maid Caiyun sent Zheng Dongbai out of the house, turned back, and not long after, saw the porter hurriedly come to report that there was a Jiang Xiucai who claimed to be from Linshui County, Qingling Prefecture, and asked to see him.
Caiyun didn't realize it at first, and said in his heart Who is this Jiang Xiucai, I have never heard of it much, and then I thought about it, Qingling Mansion, Linshui County, and the surname Jiang is again, could it be that the famous Shilin scum, yes, didn't he just win the Wenhua list and became a Xiucai.
After learning that it was the notorious Shilin scum who was visiting, her face was not good-looking, and she said in her heart what this Shilin scum was doing again, it must not be a good thing.
She didn't think much about it immediately, and ordered: "Tell him to go back, just say that Madame is meeting guests, and I don't have time to see him!"
The porter answered, and was about to turn to leave, when Mrs. Yongtan came out and asked, "Who is here?"
Caiyun pursed his lips and said, "It's that famous Shilin scum, a bad brother! What does he do, there must be nothing good, do you think it's great to be a showman......
"Shut up!" As soon as Mrs. Yongtan heard this, she knew who was coming, and immediately glared at the other party fiercely, and said to the porter, "In the future, when Gongzi Jiang visits, he will be directly brought to the living room to serve tea, and there is no need to report." ”
The porter answered Nono, turned around and hurried away.
Mrs. Yongtan said to Caiyun, the maid who was still muttering to herself, "Okay, I don't know if Qingyan is resting now, you go and inform her, and say that Jiang Gongzi is here." ”
Caiyun stood there for a moment and didn't move, pouting and said, "Miss Qingyan has already rested, so you don't need to bother, right?"
Mrs. Yongtan waved her hand patiently and said, "If you are told to go, you will go, where is so much nonsense!"
Caiyun didn't dare to say more, oh, then turned around, and while walking, he secretly arranged in his heart, Mrs. Is this deliberately tossing people, that Shilin scum is here, why do you want to tell Miss Qingyan, just now that Zheng Gongzi came, Miss Qingyan didn't come out to meet, could it be that this Shilin scum came, Miss Qingyan will come out to meet instead, is it really unreasonable.
Of course, she could only complain in her heart, but she still came all the way to Cui Qingyan's boudoir where she was resting, entered the house, stood outside and whispered to the inner room: "Miss Qingyan, Miss Qingyan!"
"What's the matter?" Cui Qingyan's cold voice came from inside.
"There's a nasty Shilin scum in front of me who came to the door to ask to see me, Madame asked me to tell you, okay, Miss Qingyan, you have a good rest, Caiyun is gone!"
After Caiyun finished speaking, she turned around and left, in her opinion, it was completely superfluous to take this trip by herself.
"Wait!Caiyun, you say, who's coming in front?" Cui Qingyan asked coldly from the back room, and then heard the sound of Suosuo's clothes, and then the door opened, and I saw Cui Qingyan in a dark robe walking out of it.
"Oh, Miss Qingyan, what are you going to do when you come out, just take a good rest. Caiyun saw it and stepped forward.
Cui Qingyan didn't pay attention to it, but asked directly, "Caiyun, who is that Shilin scum you just said?"
Caiyun said: "Who else can there be, it's the 'little Sanyuan', the scum of Shilin who bought literature, the ugly brother, I don't know what happened to him this time, there must be nothing good, it's not the autumn wind, it's just faceless, Mrs. is too, such a person avoids it, and what do you do when you put him in......"
She nagged here, but Cui Qingyan didn't listen anymore and walked out.
"Ah, Miss Qingyan, where are you going?" Caiyun saw it and hurriedly followed it again.
"Of course, I'm going to meet that Shilin scum. Cui Qingyan turned around and said, and walked forward without stopping.
"Ah!" After Caiyun heard this, she couldn't help but be stunned there, Miss Qingyan really wanted to see that Shilin scum, isn't it true, Zheng Gongzi came before, Miss Qingyan didn't pay attention to it, she avoided it, why did that Shilin scum come, Miss Qingyan wanted to come out to see him instead, this is simply unreasonable.
