Chapter 277 Zhongyuan is haunted
Chen Danxia took the two little guys to Zuixianlou, ordered three dishes, one soup and two plates of snacks, had enough food and drink, sat in the wing room and watched the street scenes, and waited for Mo Shi and the others to finish their lunch, and then checked the bill and went home.
The two little guys were tired from running, and got on the carriage and started to take a nap. Chen Danxia kept teasing them and preventing them from falling asleep. He barely supported him to return home. Chen Danxia asked the wet nurse to take the two little guys back to Lingxiyuan. She went to the courtyard to greet Mrs. Xu.
"I'm having fun outside?" Mrs. Xu asked with a smile.
"I'm happy, I don't want to come back anymore, I also want to buy the little girl who is playing acrobatics back." Chen Danxia smiled.
"These two children." Mrs. Xu was overjoyed.
Grandparents and grandchildren chatted for a few words, and Chen Danxia finished drinking iced mung bean soup and left. When he walked to the partition garden, he saw two little maids running around in panic, frowned and shouted sternly: "Stop, what's going on?"
"Three Grandma." The little maid lowered her head and stopped, "Sister Jinbi died of jumping into the well."
"Which Jinbi?" Chen Danxia asked.
"Jinbi is serving her in the big grandma's house." Mo Si reminded her.
When he heard that it was from Qin, Chen Danxia didn't ask much and went straight back to Lingxiyuan.
Although it was a life, it was not reported to the official position. In the end, Jinbi was a miserable maid from Qin's family. How the Qin family comforted Jinbi's family had nothing to do with the Xu family.
On the seventh day of the seventh month, the Chinese Valentine's Day, the smoke is faint and the moon is faint in the sky, and the autumn season of the silver Han Dynasty is the same forever. A few joys and separations are here every year. The Chinese Valentine's Day is the festival for girls. The maids are enthusiastically preparing things to beg for tricks. The two little guys were taken to the courtyard by Mrs. Xu. Chen Danxia, who was idle, carried lanterns, and pulled Xu Lang under the grape trellis, preparing to listen to the sweet words of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl couple.
But after listening to it for most of the day, Chen Danxia heard nothing except the slight sound of the wind, "Did you hear it?"
Xu Lang hugged her and smiled, "The Cowherd only saw the Weaver Girl for a year, so he had time to talk."
Chen Danxia's bright eyes flowed and asked with a chuckling, "What are they doing?"
"I want to know? Let me tell you when I go back to the room." Xu Lang took the person back to the room with half hug. Chen Danxia knew his intentions, smiled with a smile on his lips, and walked into the room with him.
In the Hongxiao tent, Xu Lang looked at his charming wife with burning eyes. He leaned down and kissed her forehead with his lips, "I will rub her into his body."
After saying that, Xu Lang conquered the city and Chen Danxia tried his best to cooperate. After a while, the two of them were sweating and their cheeks were rosy. The two who were limp in the bed hugged gently, like a pair of mandarin ducks with their necks, unable to part for a long time.
When Xu Lang and Shen Danxia were intimate and warm, Qin and Xu Ai were tense. In the afternoon, Aunt Yun took the egg custard with aconite powder in the bowl and told Xu Ai that Qin was told. Qin did not admit that it was her, but Xu Ai had already decided.
"Qin Shi, I warn you not to make any small moves. Please take care of Aunt Yun's fetus. If something happens to the child, I will only ask." Xu Jie said ruthlessly.
"Since my uncle doesn't believe me like this, why should I ask me to come and take care of her and let her take care of her by herself?" Qin Shi said in a fire.
"Qin, you can't give birth to a child by yourself and don't let others give birth. You are so hateful. Don't think I don't know what you have to do. No one in the entire mansion will murder Yun'er's child except you." Xu Jie glared.
"Since the uncle doesn't believe me, I have convicted me like this, and I have nothing to say." Qin said coldly.
"Don't think I don't know the methods you used in private. I will tell you clearly now that if something happens to the child in Yun'er's belly this time, I will give up." Xu Jie said and left with a smile.
Qin was so angry that he grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it on the ground, covering his chest, feeling cramped. Jin Xi lifted the curtain and came in gently, "Big Grandma."
"My life is so bitter!" Qin covered his mouth with a veil and started crying.
Qin felt that her life was miserable, Peng Xin also felt that her life was miserable. Xu Sheng had been in her room for a month. Although she wanted to have Xu Lang's child before, after so long, she understood that this was impossible. She thought that she had support for Xu Sheng's child, but at least she had support, but it was not that she would do whatever she wanted. Xu Sheng had a new favorite and was less willing to get close to her.
A few days later, it was July 15th, the Zhongyuan Festival. After nightfall, the family went to the ancestral hall to burn paper money and other items for their ancestors. Chen Danxia looked at Wang's huge belly and was frightened. He was still two months away. Is it really okay to succeed like that? Chen Danxia and Wang's relationship is ordinary, so it is hard to remind him, but he just said to Sun Zhenniang: "I'll ask the doctor to come to the mansion to ask everyone for peace."
Sun Zhenniang noticed that Chen Danxia had been staring at Wang's belly before, and she understood and said, "San Sister-in-law is kind."
"It's just a matter of raising hands." Chen Danxia smiled faintly.
After burning the sacrificial objects, they all returned to their courtyards. Not long after, it started to rain heavily. Chen Danxia coaxed her two sons to sleep. When she returned to the room, Xu Lang leaned against the couch and looked through the military strategy. Chen Danxia untied her cloak, got on the couch, and squeezed into his arms. Xu Lang put down the book, hugged her, raised the corners of his lips, and kissed her on the face, "Don't feel good?"
"No." Chen Danxia drew a circle on his chest with his fingers.
"Grandma Xu San, please don't make a fuss." Xu Lang said hoarsely.
Chen Danxia chuckled and said, "Mr. Xu, your concentration is getting worse now."
"I have always been very poor in your concentration, you know." Xu Lang said, biting her earlobe.
Chen Danxia trembled for a moment and buried his head in his arms, "You read your book, I'm going to sleep. After you fall asleep, you carry me to the bed."
"Okay." Xu Lang took the thin blanket and covered the two of them.
Chen Danxia raised his head and added, "Don't look too late."
"After reading this article, I will carry you to bed." Xu Lang smiled.
Chen Danxia then closed his eyes and fell asleep peacefully in his arms.
In the middle of the night, the rain became weaker, but the north wind was still strong, and many branches were blown off by the wind, making a sound of clatter. In a small courtyard in Chengning Courtyard, a scream suddenly came out. As soon as the sound fell, another scream was heard, and then someone shouted loudly, "Auntie, Auntie, what's wrong with you?"
"Go and tell the big grandma, my aunt is getting popular."
The yards of each room are a distance away. The troubles in Chengning Courtyard have no effect on other yards, but Sun Zhenniang was still alarmed because Qin asked someone to come over to check the cards and go out of the house to hire a doctor.
Although there is no curfew during the Zhongyuan Festival, it is not easy to hire a doctor in the middle of the night. Sun Zhenniang thought that Dr. Hao, who was worshipped by the third room alone, was lucky that Aunt Yun's fetus could be preserved. But if it could not be preserved, Dr. Hao would be angry with Xu Yi, which would implicate Chen Danxia, so it would be better to invite a doctor outside. Sun Zhenniang thought for a moment and gave the cards to the servants to go outside the mansion to invite a doctor.
Most of the time later, the doctor entered the mansion, but the piece of meat in Aunt Yun's belly could not be saved. Looking at the pot of blood, Xu Jie's eyes were cold, and the child was completely out of reach. Qin Shi tortured the servants in the side room and found out what happened?
"Ghost, it's a ghost." The maids who served Aunt Yun said they had seen ghosts.
July is evil. Although it was past the sixteenth month of July, it was not yet dawn. When Aunt Yun had an accident, it happened to be the middle of the night. When the yin energy was the heaviest, it was very likely that he would encounter a ghost. Qin couldn't help but tremble.
After dawn, when Mrs. Xu learned about the school in Chengning Courtyard, she snorted coldly, "All ghosts and monsters have come out."
Madam Yu observed Mrs. Xu's expression and suggested: "After all, in July, it's better to do a ritual and seek peace and peace."
Mrs. Xu pondered for a moment, "It's too hard for many people to mobilize them. In July, people outside don't know what will happen, it's inappropriate."
Madam Yu thought for a while and said, "Let the big, third, fourth, and fifth grandma go to the temple to worship?"
"It's good that this is good. Let them add more sesame oil wicks, donate some merits, prepare carp and turtle, and release them together, just treat it as accumulating virtue for the unborn child, and also pray for blessings for Wang." Mrs. Xu agreed.
Madam Yu arranged for someone to inform her grandmothers about Mrs. Xu's wishes. The four of them discussed and decided to go to Xiangguo Temple to burn incense on the 22nd.
On the evening of the 20th, Mo Si came in from outside and brought back a message, "Concubine Zhao is one month pregnant."
Chen Danxia's hand shook, and the chess pieces on the chessboard became messy. "Is it sure it's Concubine Zhao, not Concubine Xu?"
"It's certain that it's Concubine Zhao, not Concubine Xu of our family." Mo Shi said affirmatively.
Chen Danxia raised his eyebrows. She didn't know what kind of weirdness this cousin would give birth to, so she could wait and see.
Queen Zhao in the palace swept a teacup with green glaze and red peony pattern on her hand to the ground. In order to make her elder brother give up her support for Gao Ju, she asked her mother to tell him the truth. However, the elder brother still sent the concubine daughter to the Prince Yan Mansion, and did not listen to her avoidance of favor and contraception, so she got pregnant so quickly. Is the elder brother going apart with her? Is the elder brother insisting on supporting that evil son, not his nephew?
The country of Dafeng Dynasty could not be given to the evil son like this. Only her biological son could sit on the dragon throne. Empress Zhao sent a secret letter to the woman in the palace, asking her to arrange personnel and assassinate Gao Ju with all her strength.
Early in the morning of the 22nd, the four grandmothers of the Xu family took their servants to Xiangguo Temple to worship Buddha in a carriage. When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, they got off the car and walked up the mountain. When they arrived at the gate of the main hall, they were stopped. However, it turned out that the Prince of Yan was here in person. It is unknown whether they were praying for Princess Yan or for Concubine Zhao.
Gao Ju stayed in the hall for not long. After a quarter of an hour, he came out of the hall and did not see Chen Danxia and others who were stopped by the guards. The guards followed the King of Yan. Chen Danxia and others were able to enter the main hall, kneel in front of the Golden Body Buddha, praying for the Buddha's blessing, put on incense and added incense oil, and the group retreated from the hall. They were led by the monks to sit down and drink tea. After lunch, they could go back to the city after listening to the lecture.
The little novice monk brought the tea and stepped out. The maid stepped forward to pour tea for the four grandmas. Qin lowered his head and twisted the handkerchief in his hand, not knowing what he was thinking. Although Chen Danxia picked up the tea cup, he didn't drink it. He quietly looked at the heavy tea leaves floating in the cup; Sun Zhenniang picked up the tea cup, blew it, and sucked it in a small mouthful; Peng Xin sat for a while, but couldn't sit still and wanted to go out and walk.
Although he was a sister-in-law, he was a generation after all, and the three Qins and the other two didn't care much about it, but just told the servants to follow her. Peng Xin went there and no one came back for half an hour. Sun Zhenniang was about to hit someone to find her, but Mo Li, who was guarding the door, pushed open the door and came in and said, "Three grandmas, don't go out, it's very dangerous outside."
Qin asked in surprise: "Where is the danger in the Buddhist land?"
"Grandma, aren't there not many pilgrims today?" Mo Li asked back.
Although today is not the day when you are the 15th day of the lunar month to burn incense and worship Buddha, Xiangguo Temple is full of incense, and there are endless people coming to the temple to eat incense every day. There are also many stalls and vendors on the way up the mountain. Looking back, the road up the mountain is indeed a bit quiet today.
"What happened outside?" Chen Danxia asked with a frown.
Mo Li said in a deep voice: "I am not very clear about the situation outside, but An San told me that he heard the sound of swords intersecting outside, and he had gone to check it."
"Sister-in-law, fourth brother and sister, the situation outside is unknown, so we should not go out for the time being, just wait in the house for a while." Chen Danxia sat back on the round pier, and she never wanted to do something that could risk her life.
The sister-in-law and sister-in-law sat uneasy in the meditation room. Mo Li and Mo Qi stood at the door, waiting for the battle. Mo Si and Mo Wang stood beside Shen Danxia to protect her. Qin Shi looked at Mo Li and Mo Qi's posture, her eyes flashed, and she said with a worried look: "I wonder how the fifth brother and sister are doing? Will there be danger?"
Sun Zhenniang glanced at her sideways and said, "My sister-in-law cares about her fifth brother and sister so much, so she might as well go out to find her. My third sister-in-law and I are timid and will not go out."
Qin Shi pulled the corner of her mouth, "You are so adult, and you should avoid it when you see there is danger."
As he spoke, a black shadow rushed over and reached the steps in an instant. Qin screamed in dismay, "Help!"
"Sister-in-law, don't be afraid, that's the guard who came to report the news." Although Chen Danxia did not know An San, Mo Li and Mo Qi did not show a defensive expression, which means that the person who came was a friend but not an enemy.
The secret San bowed and said, "Missar, the guards of the King of Yan are fighting with the assassins, and they can't rush in for a while. However, there are many assassinations, and the guards of the King of Yan are afraid that they will not be able to resist it for long. This place is not very safe, and the mistress leaves from the back door path."
"We are all female family members. The road is rugged. We are afraid that we will be caught if we can't escape far away..." Before Chen Danxia could speak, he saw a huge red hexagonal flower blooming in the sky. The flower continued to explode, exploded six times in a row, and it did not dissipate for a long time, just like a red cloud.
Letter to smoke is letter to smoke.
But was this letter smoke released by the King of Yan or those assassins?
If the King of Yan was released, the reinforcements would be approaching and the danger would be lifted. If the assassins released, there would be no end to the eggs under the collapse of the nest, they would be afraid that they would die here.
Chen Danxia gritted his teeth, took a gamble, and said, "Ansen San, call your other brothers to go out and help the King of Yan with the help of the power of Duke Yan. Don't lose and don't forget to stay, don't li and don't qualify, you go too."
The mistress's order is equivalent to the master's order. The San San responded, made a gesture, and three figures flashed out from the darkness. Mo Li and Mo Qi flew away with them.
