A Clash of Gods - Chapter 889

[Chapter 879 Unbelievable]

Qi Ning acted with kindness and might, and expelled a few people who were monitoring him, but made a promise to everyone, which lifted everyone’s spirits.

When the crowd dispersed, Gu Qinghan said anxiously, “Ning’er, what happened to Mrs. Tai, Mrs. Tai?” She knew that there must be something strange, but she didn’t know what happened for a while.

However, Qi Ning saw Han Shou beside him hesitating to speak, and whispered to Gu Qinghan: “Sanniang wait a moment, I will take you to see Mrs. Tai later.” Xiang Han Shou said: “Manager Han, you come with me.” After entering the hall, Han Shou hesitated and followed.

Before Qi Ning could sit down, Han Shou had already said: “Master Hou, this old slave and this old slave want to apologize to you!” He was about to kneel down, but Qi Ning stretched out his hand to hold his arm, and said softly, “You don’t need to say more, boss. , I know what’s going on. You are the head of the Hou residence, and it is only natural that Mrs. Tai should let you pay attention to my daily movements.”

Han Shou was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: “Although this old slave thinks that it is not very good for Mrs. Tai to do this, but since her old man ordered me, I can’t disobey. But Lord Hou, don’t worry, although the old slave and the old slave follow Mrs. Tai’s order to watch I’ve never spoken badly about the Lord Hou in front of Mrs. Tai, old slave!”

“I believe.” Qi Ning smiled and said, “Boss, you have been in the Hou residence for so many years, and you are an old man in the Hou residence. I can understand your state of mind. However, Mrs. Tai suffered a stroke and was unable to get up from the bed. We don’t need to talk about the matter. From now on, you can help the third lady handle the affairs of the mansion. When you can’t do it anymore, if you want, continue to let your sons and daughters come to the mansion as an official. As long as I am here, you will always have A bowl of rice to eat.”

Han Shou let out a long sigh, and said, “Master Marquis attaches great importance to love and righteousness, old slave!” With a wry smile, he said in a low voice, “Master Marquis, I know you have always wanted to know about Madam, but this old slave really doesn’t know much. only!”

Knowing that the “Mrs.” he was referring to must be Liu Suyi, Qi Ning was refreshed and whispered, “Boss, do you know about my mother?”

Han Shou hesitated for a moment, before he stopped talking, Qi Ning said softly, “Don’t worry, there is no third person here. If you know anything, just tell me.”

“Master Hou, when the madam was approaching, the general was still on the front line.” Han Shou said in a low voice: “On the night of the madam’s delivery, Mrs. Tai led someone to guard there in person, and at that time, she also invited the eminent monks from the Daguang Temple to come to pray for blessings. .”

“The eminent monk of Daguang Temple?” Qi Ning was startled, and asked in a low voice, “Do you know which eminent monk it is?”

“The old slave still remembers that there were two masters at that time, one was called Master Jingkong, and the other was called Jingchen.” Han Shou recalled: “The two masters are very profound in Buddhism, and they came to the Hou residence to pray for their wife.”

“Clear space? Pure dust?” Qi Ning’s mind turned, the thirteen monks of the Great Bright Temple, in addition to presiding over Master Kongzang, Qi Ning, had a deep memory, but they were also quite familiar with these two people.

Master Jingchen’s status in Daguangming Temple is second only to Master Kongzang, but when King Muye escaped from Daguangming Temple, he sneaked on Master Jingchen, causing Master Jingchen to pass away and return to heaven, and Master Jingkong was the first of Kongming Pavilion in Daguang Temple. , Kongming Pavilion is the gathering place of the elites of Daguangming Temple, which also shows the status of Master Jingkong in the temple.

Han Shou nodded and said, “That night, none of us servants of the Hou Mansion were allowed to approach the madam’s yard. Apart from the old lady and the monk brought by the two eminent monks, there were only two midwives.”

Qi Ning nodded slightly, did not speak, stared at Han Shou, and let Han Shou continue to speak.

Han Shou looked around and saw Gu Qinghan thinking in the yard, still far away, even closer to Qi Ning, and said in a low voice: “Old slave still remember that night, Madam’s yard suddenly There was a sound of fighting, but no one dared to approach the past to see what was going on. The fighting stopped not long after that. Mrs. Tai stayed in her yard that night, and the two midwives did not come out until the next morning. !”

“What happened afterward?”

Han Shou said with a wry smile: “After the old lady came out, she immediately ordered the head of the Hou residence to prepare for the funeral!” He explained, “The head of the Hou residence was Director Qiu,

Qiu Yi’s father.

”

Qi Ning frowned. When he came to the Hou’s mansion, Qiu Yi was already the head of the Hou’s mansion, but he colluded with the three old masters and others in an attempt to bring Qi Yu to power. After the conspiracy was revealed, he was expelled from the Hou’s by Qi Ning. It was unbelievable that Liu Suyi had just given birth to a child, and the Hou residence welcomed Lin’er, but Mrs. Tai let her prepare for the funeral.

“The old slave is very clear about this matter, just because Mr. Qiu was in charge of the errand that he ordered the old slave to prepare the coffin.” Han Shou whispered: “The old slave is very strange, I remember asking who to prepare the coffin at that time. Director Qiu said that although the wife saved the child due to the dystocia, the wife passed away.”

Qi Ning’s expression was even more solemn, Han Shou only thought that Qi Ning was mourning Liu Suyi’s passing, and whispered: “Mrs. Tai is very anxious, she wants to be buried as soon as possible, and she also instructed the mansion not to publicize it, the old slave is in his heart. Thinking that if you really want to buy a coffin for your wife, you will always need precious wood, and it will take three to five days at the earliest from choosing wood to building. But Manager Qiu instructed the old slave to prepare the coffin within one day, and moreover He also said that there is no need to worry about the quality of the coffin, as long as it is almost the same, the old slave and the old slave have no choice but to find a decent coffin as much as possible.”

“Mrs. Tai quickly put my mother in the coffin?”

“It’s only a day away.” Han Shou said: “We carried the coffin into the yard of the lady, and it was the two eminent monks of the Daguang Temple who carried the lady into the corpse.”

“Is the monk of Guangming Temple entering the burial?” Qi Ning was stunned. Although he knew that the monk would do things during the funeral, he had never heard that the monk was in charge of the burial.

Burying for the dead is very particular and taboo.

But there is a special type of person called the mortuary. They are responsible for putting the dead body into the coffin. It is said that the mortuary has a special method to exorcise evil spirits, and will not be contaminated with evil qi.

Liu Suyi passed away in childbirth, but the monk came to the burial, how it sounds strange.

“Yes.” Han Shou nodded and said, “But Mrs. Tai didn’t let the matter go public, and even told me that if I said a word to the outside world, I would cut my tongue!” Han Shou’s eyes showed a trace of fear. Obviously, she is also very afraid of Mrs.

Qi Ning said warmly, “Don’t worry, boss, every word you say will come out of your mouth and into my ears, and no third person will know it.”

Han Shou sighed: “Master Hou, in fact, the old slave has nothing to be afraid of at his age. It’s just that the master has always been concerned about his wife’s affairs, and there are not many people who know what happened back then. I’m just worried that if you don’t tell me about this, Lord Hou will always be kept in the dark.”

“Not many people know?” Qi Ning asked in a low voice, “Yes, the boss, you just said that the two stable wives who delivered my mother’s birth back then!”

“Master Hou, you can’t find them.” Han Shou said softly: “After that incident, the whereabouts of the two stable women are unknown, and there has been no news since then.”

Qi Ning was startled, Han Shou whispered: “The strangest thing is that after the madam was buried, the madam did not set up a mourning hall for the madam, nor did she announce the news of the madam’s death!” The expression was solemn: “The old slave asked in private. Mr. Qiu, Mr. Qiu was also very strange. He only said that Mrs. Tai told him that Mrs. died in childbirth at a young age. Set up a mourning hall.”

At this moment, Qi Ning remembered that Xiang Baiying had also mentioned this to him.

Xiang Baiying once said that the Jinyi Hou Mansion really said that Liu Suyi died because of dystocia. Xiang Baiying and Liu Suyi had a good relationship back then, and they called them sisters and brothers. After Liu Suyi passed away, Xiang Baiying thought about it. Entering the palace to pay homage, but was blocked, and even the body was never seen.

Qi Ning knew that Liu Suyi died in childbirth. Although Mrs. Tai told him not to make a big splash, the death of Mrs. Jinyihou was naturally not enough to cover the fire. After all, it was still known to everyone. The beggar gang is well-informed, and he knows this, and it is a matter of course.

It was just that Xiang Baiying was going to pay homage to Liu Suyi who passed away, but Jinyi Hou’s mansion prevented him from entering the mansion, which was still somewhat inhumane.

“Boss, when my mother was buried, didn’t many people know about it?” Qi Ning asked in a low voice.

Han Shou, however, shook his head and smiled bitterly: “Master Hou, this old slave doesn’t know when the madam will be buried, let alone where it will be buried. UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com”

Qi Ning was startled and said in surprise, “You don’t know?” Mrs. Jinyi Hou was buried, but the people in Hou’s mansion didn’t know when to be buried. Qi Ning felt more and more unbelievable.

Han Shou hurriedly explained: “On the third day after Madam’s death, the general came from the front line. The general came, thinking that the wife gave birth to a child and wanted to hold a banquet to celebrate, who knows!” Shaking his head, silence After a while, he continued: “The coffin has been parked in the madam’s yard, and no one dared to go there. After the general came, he only stayed for half a month before going to the front line. When the general left, the old servant knew that the madam had been arranged. The Hou Mansion was sent for burial, but when and where it was buried, not only the old slaves, but even the rest of the Hou Mansion did not know.”

Qi Ning took a deep breath. From the beginning to the end, this incident was indescribably strange and unreasonable everywhere.

“Since then, no one in the Hou Mansion dared to mention the matter of Madam again.” Han Shou whispered: “Mrs. Tai is the most taboo about this, so the old slave never said a word. Lord Hou. The old slave knows There are only so many things, and the old slave doesn’t know anything about other things.”

Qi Ning nodded slightly and said softly, “Mr. Manager, you told me this today, which makes me very happy.” He glanced outside the door and saw that Gu Qinghan was still waiting outside, and said softly, “I will talk to you again. , I’ll go to see Mrs. Tai with the third lady first.” With a slight smile, she didn’t say much, and went out. Under the sun, Gu Qinghan was graceful and graceful, and Qi Ning stepped forward and said with a light smile, “Sanniang has been waiting for a long time.”

Gu Qinghan glanced at the room and said in a low voice, “What did you and Director Han secretly say? Are you afraid I know?”

“I just asked him to help Sanniang more in the future, and listen to Sanniang’s advice in everything.” Qi Ning looked at Gu Qinghan’s delicate and fair face, and whispered, “Since Sanniang knew that Mrs. Tai had a stroke, why didn’t she go first? See? Are you afraid of her?”
