Chapter 43 The Complete Strategy
After Dao Ming went out, Qingyin sat on the couch drinking ginger soup while watching Rou'er and Wu'er clean up the room.
Rou'er cleaned up the bed, picked up the wet clothes on the table, and a ball of white cloth fell out. Rou'er picked up the white cloth, glanced at the wide and long cloth in the palm of her hand, and couldn't help but be stunned.
She quietly turned around and looked at Qingyin. Seeing that Qingyin was staring at herself, she couldn't help blushing. Qingyin squeezed her eyes slightly. As soon as Rou'er saw it, she knew it more and more. She looked at Wuer and was wiping the table with her back to herself. Then she turned around and wrapped the cloth in her clothes.
After a while, Qingyin saw that Wuer had wiped the case, so he deliberately said, "This ginger soup drives away the cold. Wuer, you can ask the kitchen to make a bowl again. And send a bowl to the shopkeeper of Gongsun.
Hearing this, Wu'er took the bowl in Qingyin's hand and turned out.
When Wu'er came out of the yard, Qingyin turned his head to look at Wu'er. Seeing that she lowered her head slightly and her face was ruddy, she whispered, "You'er, come here. Can you see the white cloth in my clothes just now?
Rou'er nodded, but she didn't dare to look up at her and whispered, "I won't say anything."
Qingyin raised his eyebrows, but this Rouer was very smart. But this is not what Qingyin wants. She smiled gently: "Rou'er, you first came here, I didn't ask where you came from. I don't think your clothes are very bad. How can you sell yourself as a slave?
When Rou'er heard the voice asking this, she couldn't help but be stunned, but did not dare to answer: "The maidservant's family is in the middle, and her father is gambling. He owes a lot of money in the gambling house, so he sold the maidservant to pay off the debt..." Later, the voice became weaker and weaker.
Seeing that she said so, Qingyin continued to ask, "If I redeem myself for you and let you go home, would you like it?"
When Rou'er heard Qingyin say this, she couldn't help looking up at her. Seeing that Qingyin's eyes were serious and didn't seem to laugh. Thinking of her father's complacent when he sold her, she couldn't help panic and knelt on the ground with a plop: "Please, don't send me back. The maidservant is willing to follow the monk.
Qingyin couldn't help laughing and whispering, "Follow me and worship Buddha? What's good about the green lantern ancient Buddha?
Rou'er lay on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "What does the master say? The servant is willing to follow the master, and he will never have two hearts for the rest of his life..."
It's time to get to the point. The voiceless voice can't help but be happy. She knew that she could not dress up as a monk all her life. Rou'er and Wu'er were her close maids. She couldn't hide it from them all the time. If you tell them directly, you are afraid that they don't know the secret and reveal her identity, which will lead to danger again.
The attack on Anguo Temple today is a wake-up call. And her monk status is a time bomb. With a little carelessness, a crime of bullying the king can kill her. And she is famous under the attention of the public. Everyone knows that the Qingyin of Anguo Temple is a eminent monk. If they know that this eminent monk is a woman - this kind of thing that can be said to rise to religious belief is even more -
Qingyin stretched out her hand and helped her up: "If that's the case, you can follow me at ease. Don't worry, I will arrange a good home for you in the future.
"It's just that my identity has been invisible to the outside world because of my family background, but you need to be careful not to reveal my identity in front of outsiders." Qingyin looked at Rou'er and said slowly.
With the guarantee of Rouer, Qingyin will be relieved. Tell Rou'er to tell Wu'er like this when there is no one. Rou'er nodded and answered.
When Wu'er sent ginger soup, Qingyin drank another bowl, and his stomach was full, not to mention the cold, even the heat came. She asked Ke, who had sent ginger soup to Gongsun Yi. Wuer nodded and said, "I sent a bowl and drank it in one bite." He said and laughed, "I think the Gongsun shopkeeper looks very bad. After drinking Jiang Tang, he stood in the courtyard for a while, but left without saying anything."
I was stunned when I heard the voiceless sound. Why did Gongsun Yi leave? But he didn't say a word?
It was the same when he sent himself home yesterday. He quietly walked away at the door, but Xiaobai came over at night, but he made an appointment for him. It was so strange that he didn't know what kind of plane to make.
How did she know that Gongsun Yi blamed herself for not protecting Qingyin and felt ashamed to meet each other.
The night breeze is slightly cool.
The king of Lanling stood in the courtyard in a brocade robe, and the breeze blew the robe, revealing the dark flowers of the silver silk bamboo pattern at the corners of the robe. His head is as dark as black hair, and from behind, he looks like a black satin.
A woman wearing a golden skirt slowly came over, with picturesque eyebrows and a gentle smile on her face. Seeing her coming, the king of Lanling turned around and greeted her. He sat down in the courtyard with her hand and asked in a low voice, "Yanran, have you ever seen the empress dowager?"
The woman nodded and looked at the man beside her carefully, with deep affection in her eyes. "The Empress Dowager was not aware of it. When the empress dowager left Yanran to eat, Huangmen came in and reported that the maid of honor, Bisi, fell off the cliff in the back of Ningguo Temple... Yanran looked at the Empress Dowager at that time except for being sad. Seeing that my husband's eyes flashed, he asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, will this affect the monk?"
When the king of Lanling saw that she mentioned Qingyin, he couldn't help but feel guilty and held her hand tightly: "Nothing, don't worry too much. You have worked hard to enter the palace today. Go to bed early later.
Yanran smiled, with a trace of satisfaction on her face, and whispered, "It doesn't matter. Your Highness works hard for national affairs, and it's nothing for Yanran to do this. However, she heard that He Shikai was in the Grand Palace again..." At this point, she seemed to know that it was inappropriate to decrim the king. Her face flew a blush and stopped talking.
The king of Lanling patted her hand and comforted her, "These things are well known. Last time, the second brother said in front of the hall. I don't think the king's face is depressed. I'm afraid the second brother is more or less auspicious. Since ancient times, the ruthless imperial family, not to mention my identity. Now I don't want merit, but I don't want to go wrong. Keep the whole family safe."
Hearing what he said, Yanran became more and more palpitated. She looked at her husband and said, "Your Highness, haven't you always been friends with General Hu Lv? General Hulv has made great achievements in the war, and he relies on the pillar of the country. If there is anything, he can speak well for His Highness in front of the king.
When the king of Lanling heard what she said, he felt more and more desolate. It has always been the end of birds and good bows, especially this kind of foreign relative who holds military power. I don't know how many things have happened. But at this moment, she couldn't say much in front of the princess. She was afraid that she would be worried, so she followed her words and said, "Yes, with General Hu Lv, you don't have to worry. It's just that I still have something to do in front of me. When this matter is over, I will ask myself to go back to the fiefdom and accompany Yanran day by day.
When Yanran heard him say this, her eyes were even more affectionate, and she slowly fell into his arms: "Your Highness, I'm waiting for you..."
For a long time, when Yanran returned to the room, the king of Lanling stood up and looked at a shining star in the sky.
Soon, a figure quietly came to him: "The Empress Dowager didn't seem to find it, but just ordered a good burial."
The King of Lanling nodded, and the figure retreated quietly.
The King of Lanling looked at the direction of the night sky: Qingyin, who are you? Why did the maids around the Empress Dowager attack you? The Turkic prince insisted that you go to the Turkic Kingdom, why? The Taoist Zen master, who was obviously the best monk of Huguo Temple in the past, suddenly left the national capital 15 years ago. Why is he your master?
Before coming to Ye City, you were just an unknown monk in Shoucheng. Your performance at the Dharma Conference was surprising. Everything about you, like a riddle, is laborious to solve.
He sighed for a long time in the night sky. You chose that man, didn't you? Look at the people you sent, are you leaving Yecheng?
It's okay! As long as I am in one day, I will protect you for a day. I hope you will be happy all your life and not fall into disputes...
It was night, and Gongsun Yi lay on his tossing and turning.
The scene of Qingyin falling into the water and fainting is like a sharp sword piercing his heart, which has been around him all the time. He wanted to lie in his arms with a faint voice and a pale face, so he couldn't help clenching his hand.
He was angry that he was only anxious to save Qingyin at that time, but he didn't notice the woman standing in front of the pool and why he didn't save Qingyin. When he returned to the restaurant to change his clothes and rushed to Ningguo Temple, he could not find any trace. Of course, he also doesn't believe that Qingyin falls into the water for no reason. I just secretly speculated in my heart whether she performed too well in the Dharma Conference, which aroused other people's dissatisfaction and took the opportunity to harm her.
Thinking that Qingyin would always be in danger, he only felt a faint pain in his heart. It's just because of the identity of Qingyin, but I can't say anything.
Daqi believed in Buddhism, and the king of Qi once summoned Qingyin to enter the palace. If one day he found that Qingyin was a woman dressed as a man, he was afraid that his life would be in good. And that He Shikai has a grudge against Qingyin. If he is caught by him, the result will be even more worrying.
Thinking of this, Gongsun Yi felt more and more that there were no pajamas. He simply put on his clothes and pushed the door out of the room.
At the end of the corridor, Xiaobai's room is still on. Today, Gongsun Yi went out. Xiaobai didn't see him come back in the restaurant, so he didn't know that Qingyin fell into the water.
Gongsun Yi remembered that the relationship between Xiaobai and Qingyin was extraordinary, so he went to Xiaobai's room and coughed softly, "Little White Lady, have you ever fallen asleep?"
Xiaobai was sorting out today's accounts in the room. Hearing Gongsun Yi's voice, he said, "No. Is there something wrong with the shopkeeper?
Gongsun Yi whispered, "Qingyin was knocked unconscious today. I want you to visit her tomorrow."
Xiaobai was stunned. He put down the account book and walked to the door: "How could it be like this? Didn't the shopkeeper meet her at Ningguo Temple? How could she be knocked unconscious?"
Gongsun Yi felt guilty and coughed dryly, "I went to buy something at the last minute." He originally went to buy some steamed buns from Sufangzhai to bring to Qingyin. Unexpectedly, Qingyin fell into the pool and threw all the steamed buns on the ground in shock. It's embarrassing to say this. If it hadn't been for his temporary delay, Qingyin would not have been injured. The more he thought about it, the more guilty he felt. He whispered, "It's all me... hurt the voice."
Xiaobai didn't know how Qingyin was. Seeing the guilt in Gongsun's words, he comforted her, "I'll go to see her early tomorrow morning. The shopkeeper doesn't have to worry too much. It's just that in this way, I'm afraid you and her..." I'm afraid I didn't have time to confess?
Gongsun Yiyu is blocked. Thinking of holding Qingyin in his arms, he said, "I'll go with you tomorrow... I, I'll be responsible!" So he fled back to the room.
