Chi Danmei shook her head and said, “Don’t tell anyone about this, and you don’t have to worry about it. I won’t hurt anyone in the palace, and I will be careful not to be discovered. You don’t need to worry.”
“Why is this?” Qi Ning said anxiously, “This palace has many palaces, and there are nearly a hundred palaces, large and small. You are not familiar with this place. To find something in such a big place is not looking for a needle in a haystack. It will take years to find one room after another, even if no one finds out. Instead of spending so much time here, wouldn’t it be easier for me to directly ask the emperor for a reward.”
“I said it won’t work.” Chi Dan said anxiously: “Although that thing is of no use to you, your emperor will never give it to you.”
Qi Ning was stunned, and doubts arose in his heart: “Why? What are you looking for, so strange?”
Before Chi Danmei could speak, she heard a call from outside: “Master Hou, Master Hou!”
The two separated immediately, Qi Ning dodged to the door, heard the sound approaching, Chi Danmei had come over and whispered: “We have been here for too long, there must be suspicion over there, send someone here. Find.”
Qi Ning also knew that it was strange that he had been out for so long, and whispered: “Then you have to be careful in the palace, I will come to see you when I have a chance.” Thinking that she can’t come directly to Fengyi Palace, It’s really not easy to see Chi Danmei next time. Thinking of something, he asked in a low voice, “Yesterday, Sima Wanqiong was stabbed in the leg by a needle. Did you do something good?”
Chi Danmei smiled charmingly and did not answer. Qi Ning looked at her and knew that what happened yesterday must be what she did.
At this time, when he heard the call approaching, Qi Ning knew that it was not good to delay any longer. He opened the door with a “ga”, and pretended to organize his clothes and walked out the door. It happened that a palace maid was coming over there. Seeing Qi Ning, he hurriedly said : “Master Hou!”
Qi Ning coughed twice. At this time, Chi Danmei had followed him out the door. She waved her hand to close the door, and stood behind Qi Ning with her head lowered. Qi Ning said to the palace maid, “What’s wrong?”
“The emperor was worried that the Marquis had lost his way in the palace, so he sent slaves to look for him.”
Qi Ning let out an “um” and walked back along the same path. Chi Danmei followed, and the palace maid quickly followed. At this time, Qi Ning had no chance to speak with Chi Danmei, and felt a little regretful. I thought to myself that I was just talking about it, forgetting to let Chi Danmei show her true face and let him take a look.
I just didn’t know whether Chi Danmei was wearing a human skin-mask or another way of disguising, so I couldn’t help but squinted and saw that Chi Danmei lowered her head slightly, but the corners of her eyes were also looking at herself, she was so beautiful. The eyes are charming and seductive, and the four eyes are facing each other. Qi Ning’s heart skips a beat.
When they got to the main hall, Chi Danmei couldn’t go in any more and stayed outside. Qi Ning was a little reluctant to give up, but he couldn’t stop. He glanced at Chi Danmei and went in. Inside, Longtai was talking to the queen. , Seeing Qi Ning come in, Long Tai has already smiled and said, “It’s been a long time for you, have you become confused?”
“Your Majesty, the palace is too big, the one who led the way… my sister is new here, and I’m not very familiar with this place. I finally found a place.” Qi Ning smiled and said nothing.
The queen smiled and said: “Jinyihou, Tianluo paste has been wrapped for you, just bring it back when you leave the palace.”
Qi Ning glanced to the side, only to see that the two boxes of Tianluo ointment had been wrapped in yellow brocade cloth, and hurriedly cupped his hands: “Chen, thank the Queen for the reward!”
Long Tai said: “Jinyihou, I know what happened yesterday. You have maintained the court’s ritual system, and both I and the Queen think you are a loyal minister.”
At this time, Qi Ning already understood that today Longtai brought himself to the harem to see the queen, which should be the meaning of the queen.
Yesterday, if she hadn’t stood up herself, the queen would probably suffer a humiliation. Not only would Sima Wanqiong enter the palace on a jade carriage, but the jade carriage would even walk in front of the queen. Dongqi is a small country after all, and Sima Wanqiong The family is also a powerful minister of the Chu state.
I could only endure, and fortunately, I came forward to speak out with justice, and this allowed the queen to enter the palace with grace.
The queen is naturally well aware of this, and she must be grateful for what Qi Ning did yesterday, so Longtai personally led Qi Ning to the harem to express her gratitude.
Qi Ning thanked him again, and Long Tai also knew that a foreign minister would not stay in the harem for a long time, so he ordered: “Jinyi Hou can retire first, and the Ministry of Punishment hurried over to take up his post, don’t delay the errand, and then I will let someone send the will. to the penal department.”
Qi Ning bowed his head and said yes, and then picked up the Tianluo ointment given by the queen and retired, knowing that the emperor’s newly married Yan’er was the time of tenderness and lingering, and the court’s etiquette system allowed the emperor to ignore the government within three days. The little emperor felt the tenderness of the queen, and I am afraid that he will stay in this Fengyi Palace these two days.
A palace maid led Qi Ning out of the Fengyi Palace. Qi Ning looked around quietly and found that Chi Danmei had disappeared. She was very puzzled. She really didn’t know what Chi Danmei was looking for in the palace. things.
Today’s visit to the palace is a good harvest. Not only did he get the Queen’s reward, but he also won the position of Minister of Punishment.
Qi Ning knew that in terms of experience and qualifications, he was afraid that he was not even qualified to be the head of the Ministry of Justice. It was because of the situation in the imperial court that Longtai pulled himself to the position of the minister of the Ministry of Justice. He suspected that he was probably the youngest person in history. Minister of Punishment.
Back at the Hou Mansion, Gu Qinghan couldn’t see Gu Qinghan for a while, and went to his yard along the path. Suddenly, he heard a voice coming from behind the flowerbed next to him, and he was suspicious. He quietly approached to look behind the flowerbed, and saw a maid who was Sitting on a rock, holding a paper bag in his hand, in front of the maid, sitting alone on the ground, unkempt hair, but that black cloak strange man.
The strange man with the black cloak has been in the mansion for a long time, but Qi Ning didn’t spend much time in the mansion. In comparison, the ugly man spent more time in the mansion than Qi Ning.
Qi Ning glanced at the maid, but also recognized that the maid was Su Lan.
Qi Ning also vaguely knew that this black cloak strange man had a quirky temper, and occasionally made a mess of the Hou Mansion. Apart from himself, he didn’t listen to anyone else’s words, but he was the only one who was obedient to this Sulan.
At this time, seeing the scene in front of him, that Sulan was sitting on the stone. Under the sun, she was taking out cakes from the paper bag and delivering it to the strange man. The strange man was sitting in front of Sulan, like a child. , Sulan cakes were delivered, he opened his mouth and swallowed it, rather like a couple in love.
However, Qi Ning knew that Sulan was just pity for this strange guy, so she just took more care of her. Although Sulan was not a stunning beauty, she also had six or seven pink looks. In terms of appearance, there was too much difference between Sulan and that ugly guy. Like Beauty and the Beast, it is possible to say that Ugly likes Sulan, but if Sulan likes Ugly, it is a bit unbelievable.
“Slow down, don’t rush.” Su Lan has a gentle temperament and a soft voice: “This is what the third lady gave me, and I will keep it for you. You eat slowly, no one will rob you.” He grabbed a handkerchief and wiped the corner of the ugly man’s mouth lightly.
While swallowing, the ugly man stared at Su Lan with a smile, but he was also very obedient.
Because of Su Lan, the previous strange man had a big fight in the Hou Mansion, which also let Qi Ning know that this strange man is not only very fast, but also not weak in martial arts. Although he has no internal strength, he is born with divine power and can quickly Learn the opponent’s tricks, and then use his own way to return to him. This talent alone is already appalling.
According to the judgment of Li Tang and others, this strange man was very likely to have mastered martial arts. Where, is always a mystery.
Looking at the strange man’s obedient appearance, Qi Ning couldn’t help but think, if this strange man was a wicked man in the past, he might as well have no worries in the Hou’s mansion, and he would not have any ambitions. It’s not a bad thing to not hurt anyone.
There are so many masters in the rivers and lakes. Some people fall into madness because of going crazy, forget everything in the past, and become stupid. This is not without precedent. A person like this may not have been noticed by many people in the past, but has disappeared for a long time now. , I’m afraid no one will miss it anymore.
Under the sun, looking at the two people in front of him, Qi Ning thought that at least this moment should be happy for the two of them, and Qi Ning never had the habit of interrupting others’ happiness, so he stepped back.
Back in the house, he opened the package. There were two delicate boxes inside. Qi Ning carefully opened a box, which contained a small round porcelain jar. When he opened the lid, a light fragrance emanated from it. , Qi Ning took a look inside, and it really was a grease-like thing. He didn’t have much interest in this, so he closed the lid.
The queen gave two boxes of Tian Luo paste, which are suitable for female family members. Although there are many female family members in the Houfu, only Gu Qinghan and Tang Nuo can make gifts from Qi Ning.
However, Qi Ning told Gu Qinghan that he usually pays attention to maintenance, but Tang Nuo seems to have never dressed up, always simple and handsome, and Tang Nuo is proficient in pharmacology, but he doesn’t know if he looks like Tianluo ointment, Tianluo ointment In the eyes of others, it is very precious, but in the eyes of Tang Nuo, it may not be worth mentioning.
Qi Ning thought for a while, then packed one of the boxes and put them away, picked up the other exquisite box, went out the door, and went straight to Gu Qinghan’s yard.
Because they realized that there might be someone monitoring their whereabouts and Gu Qinghan’s whereabouts in the mansion, Qi Ning and Gu Qinghan were both careful, but today there is a Tianluo ointment sent by the queen, which was given to Gu Qinghan in the past. Suspicious.
When eating in the morning, Gu Qinghan ran away, thinking of the panicked appearance of the beautiful young woman, Qi Ning wanted to laugh.
He arrived at Gu Qinghan’s courtyard, Gu Qinghan’s personal maid, Bing Qiao, was trimming the flowers in the courtyard. When he saw Qi Ning coming in, he was about to speak. Qi Ning raised his hand to signal Bing Qiao not to make any noise. Bing Qiao nodded obediently. The room pointed, Qi Ning smiled slightly, and then approached the past.
Gu Qinghan is the third lady of the Hou Mansion, and the hospital is naturally very spacious. The room that Bingqiao knows is actually Gu Qinghan’s study.
Gu Qinghan was born in a gentry family. She has read books since she was a child. She knows how to spell words. She also has a study room in her courtyard, but there are not many books in her collection. Among them are some account lists of Hou’s house, and the list of Hou’s house’s accounting room. Gu Qinghan also has a copy. When reconciling accounts every month, it is easy to check if there are bills on both sides.
The door of the study was open, Qi Ning walked over, but saw Gu Qinghan standing on the edge of a desk with a pen in his hand, drawing something on the paper attentively, with her back to Qi Ning’s side, The beautiful back has smooth lines, and Qi Ning walked into the study lightly, but Gu Qinghan didn’t notice it.
Qi Ning walked lightly behind Gu Qinghan, there was a window in front of the desk, two golden linden trees were planted behind the window, vines grew in the corner, and the greenery was full of greenery, Qi Ning glanced at the paper, only to realize that Gu Qinghan was here When I was painting on the window, what I was painting was the golden bodhi tree behind.
Qi Ning took a closer look, Gu Qinghan’s brushwork was smooth, and although his paintings could not be compared with those of famous artists, they were also very expressive.
Gu Qinghan was intoxicated, and he never noticed that Qi Ning was standing behind him. Qi Ning did not make a sound, and quietly watched her painting. After a while, Gu Qinghan put the brush on the inkstone and blew a few sips of aroma on the painting. Only then did he pick it up with both hands carefully, facing the window, tilting his head slightly, and looking at his painting, he seemed quite satisfied.
“Sanniang is not only good at the piano, but her painting is also so expressive.” Qi Ning couldn’t help but admire: “As expected, she is the number one talented girl in the Jinyi Hou Mansion.”
Gu Qinghan was taken aback by the sudden voice, “Oops”, turned around, and then quickly took two steps back. After seeing clearly it was Qi Ning, he tapped his chest and blamed: “Why didn’t you speak when you came in? Are you going to scare people to death?” He was so shocked that his chest trembled.
“I see Sanniang painting here, I don’t dare to disturb it, for fear of disturbing Sanniang.” Qi Ning put the day Luo Gao in his hand on the table: “Sanniang, show me.” He stretched out his hand to ask for the painting, but Gu Qinghan was He put the painting in his hand behind him and said, “If you don’t show it to you, you’ll scare me to death.”
Qi Ning laughed, Gu Qinghan then looked at the box on the table and frowned, “What is it?”
“It’s the Tianluo ointment given by the queen.” Qi Ning said, “The gift that the queen brought from Dongqi is specially used for women. I heard that it is very precious. When you apply it on the lips, it can not only be youthful and beautiful, but also has a unique fragrance. I can’t use it myself, I can only honor Sanniang.”
Gu Qinghan rolled his eyes at Qi Ning and said, “You can stay here if you don’t need it.” He glanced outside, but didn’t dare to approach Qi Ning, bit his lip, saw Qi Ning staring at him, and coughed deliberately , said: “Just put things down, you can go quickly.”
Qi Ning shrugged and said, “I just brought a present to Sanniang, will Sanniang drive me away?”
“What are you doing here if you don’t leave?” Gu Qinghan said angrily, “If it’s nothing, go back and read a few more books.”
Qi Ning smiled, stretched out his hand and pulled a piece of white paper, rolled up his sleeves, and picked up his brush. Gu Qinghan’s beautiful eyes widened, and he asked curiously, “What are you doing?”
“Painting!” Qi Ning laughed and drew on the paper with a pen. Gu Qinghan was very surprised. She had never seen Qi Ning paint before. She wondered when this kid would be able to paint again. He restrained himself from getting closer, but Qi Ning had already drawn a line on the paper. Gu Qinghan was amused when he saw that his movements were completely incoherent, but he still stood by the side with great interest.
Qi Ning is not good at painting, but he has never touched it in his previous life, and he can understand a little about the superficial paintings. After a while, he drew a general outline of the human body. Gu Qinghan saw that the outline seemed to be a woman. , The body line is uneven, although the painting is not delicate at all, but it can roughly outline the outline of the body, but the lines of both the chest and the buttocks are very exaggerated.
“Who are you painting?” Gu Qinghan was a little curious and couldn’t help asking.
Qi Ning glanced at her and smiled, “Who else, Sanniang, doesn’t look like you?”
Gu Qinghan was stunned, and then looked more carefully, and found that the woman’s outline was very exaggerated, her face was flushed, she stretched out her hand and said, “You…you are not allowed to draw, who will let you? You draw like this…!” Thinking that he was such an exaggerated figure in Qi Ning’s eyes, his face became more and more hot.
Gu Qinghan grabbed it and was about to tear it up, but he suddenly felt that Qi Ning was silent and a little strange. He glanced at him, but saw Qi Ning staring at the linden tree outside the back window in a daze. Glancing at Qi Ning’s arm, UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com asked softly, “Ning’er, what’s the matter with you?”
Qi Ning turned his head slowly and looked at Gu Qinghan with a very serious expression. He asked in a low voice, “Sanniang, I suddenly remembered something and thought it was very strange.”
“what’s up?”
Qi Ning looked around, then lowered his voice and said, “You said that the one who appeared in the Buddhist hall that night was a cow-headed horse-face, right?”
Gu Qinghan’s face changed slightly, and he also looked around before lowering his voice: “What are you talking about at this time?”
“Why is it a bull-headed horse face?” Qi Ning frowned, thoughtfully, and whispered: “If they want to hide their true colors, they can choose a light mask at will, why do they pretend to be ghosts and pretend to be bull-headed horse-faced. ……!” He pulled a new piece of paper, drew a pen on the paper, and quickly drew a simple bull’s head, then gently put the pen down and stared at the bull’s head on the paper blink.
“Ning’er, you…what do you think?” Gu Qinghan asked in a low voice, and couldn’t help but get close to Qi Ning, and also looked at the picture: “Do you think there is a reason for them to pretend to be bull-headed?”
“It must be.” Qi Ning said softly, “The ox-headed horse-face is the messenger of hell, and the living people are very taboo about it, but they pretend to be the ox-headed horse-face. Of course, this is strange, and there must be some reason.” He raised his hand. Putting it on his forehead, he closed his eyes slightly, and said to himself, “What could be the reason?”
