Chapter 148: The Great Baoen Temple
After Qin Lang and Gu Xiefei left Tiance Mansion, Gu Xiefei heard that he had a new house and asked to go and take a look. Anyway, it was not far away. The two walked to the courtyard north of Tiance Mansion. Here, they were actually Kaicao's warehouse. When they opened the door, they saw that there was a big courtyard inside. Because there was no one living for a long time, the yard was covered with weeds. Not counting the warehouse behind, there were one yard in the east and west. There were more than twenty rooms of all sizes.
Gu Xiefei smiled and said, "I'm developed! Ji Hongcai is really good to you."
Qin Lang thought to himself that the reason why Ji Hongcai was so kind to him was not because of Sang Jingtian's face, and threw the key to Gu Xiefei and said, "Brother Gu, I will leave the work of cleaning the yard to you, I will have something to do afterwards." It was getting late, and he had to go to Chen's mansion.
Gu Xiefei said: "Don't worry, you will be shocked when you come back."
Qin Lang came to Chen's mansion on time and informed him that the person who came was Chen Qiunian, but Chen Qiunian asked him to accompany him to Dabaoen Temple.
This was something Qin Lang didn't expect. At present, the scandal between him and Chen Weiyu was spreading all over the city. Chen Qiongnian actually asked him to accompany him to Dabaoen Temple. What are the plans for this move?
The Chen Mansion was ready. Chen Qiongnian went to Dabaoen Temple this time to choose to ride a horse, choose to walk with Qin Lang, and travel through the streets and alleys of Yongdu in a grand manner.
Chen Qiongnian went to Dabaoen Temple to visit his daughter this time, which was the Queen Mother Kaien, and behind it was Sang Jingtian's help. The two of them were tacit at this moment and had a very tacit understanding.
Let Qin Lang accompany him to Dabaoen Temple. It was Chen Qiongnian's first step in fighting back rumors with his actions. He is upright and not afraid of shadows. Aren't you creating rumors about Qin Lang and my daughter everywhere? I'll let you watch this boy accompany me to Dabaoen Temple with your own eyes. I have no ghost in my heart.
Qin Lang sighed secretly. After today's incident, everyone knew that he had been to Dabaoen Temple. According to common sense, shouldn't he avoid it when he is so sensitive? Chen Qiunian did this a bit of a desperate attempt to survive. He admired his scheming and his courage. Isn't Chen afraid of backfiring?
Qin Lang said: "Today, two painting workshops were seized, and I also found some information about the matter."
Chen Qiongnian mostly understood the situations that Qin Lang mentioned. He was interested in Qin Lang's search for the eyebrows and said softly: "What did you find?"
"The person who ordered the paintings was the Red Fox Ji Congliang who escaped from the Demon-Suppressing Department, which was the demon criminal who once sneaked into the Sang Mansion to attack me."
Chen Qiongnian said: "Is there a way to find him?"
Qin Lang said: "We are looking for clues, and this matter is not convenient to be investigated publicly."
Chen Qiongnian nodded. The team passed by the downtown city, and many passers-by looked like this team. Although Chen Qiongnian is the Shinji Shiming, there are not many people who know him, let alone a small role like Qin Lang, but after the rumors that night, both of them have been pushed to the forefront. Chen Qiongnian is swaying around the market today to make people see his attitude of being clear to the clear oneself.
Moreover, he also installed many people in the crowd in advance, quietly revealing their identities. If this is not the case, he would not be able to achieve the goal of building momentum.
After finding out their identities, many onlookers began to mutter that the official was Chen Qiunian, the Demon-Supervisor, and was about to become the father-in-law of Dayong. The handsome young man was Qin Lang, the godson of the envoy Sang Jingtian, and was also the male protagonist of the charming painting.
Qin Lang didn't know how famous he is now. In the hearts of many people, he was a person who cuckolded the little emperor and dyed the country of Dayong green.
The people's interest in rumors is far more than their efforts in exploring the truth. The scene in front of them begins to make them doubt the rumors. If the rumors are true, how dare Chen Qiongnian appear on Yongdu Street with Qin Lang? And the two of them chatted and laughed, and they both looked very calm.
Another important thing is that Chen Qiunian and Qin Lang are both good-looking, and their appearance is justice.
Qin Lang felt that Chen Qiunian was still nervous. If he was really upright and was not afraid of being slanted, he would not have to do these forms.
In front of the Dabaoen Temple, Chen Qiongnian said: "What should be coming will always come, just like before it rains, I always want to find a place to shelter before it rains, but when the rain really falls, I feel calm."
Qin Lang said: "My sir, my body is already wet anyway, so it doesn't matter if it rains heavily or lightly?"
Chen Qiongnian laughed, he tied the reins of the horse and turned over and dismounted, and said to Qin Lang: "Are you here?"
Of course Qin Lang had to follow him in, but he wanted to see if Chen Qiunian was afraid? It was one thing to accompany Chen Qiunian on the street, and it was another thing to follow him into Dabaoen Temple. Isn’t Chen Qiunian worried that someone would make him take the opportunity to visit his daughter to help Chen Weiyu meet with him?
Chen Qiongnian was not confused, so of course he didn't dare to let Qin Lang see his daughter. After entering the mountain gate, Qin Lang was waiting outside. He followed the eunuch who had already been waiting there.
Qin Lang was idle and idle. He went to the Main Hall alone to burn incense. Before he could even get to the place, he saw the old eunuch An Gaoqiu.
An Gaoqiu stood in front of a wintersweet and looked at him meaningfully.
Qin Lang walked over and saluted An Gaoqiu.
An Gaoqiu said with a sharp voice: "Forget it, Qin Lang, Qin Lang, you are so brave that you dare to come here."
Qin Lang smiled and said, "Mr. Chen asked me to escort him over, so he had to come."
An Gaoqiu sighed and said, "He also has good intentions and wants to prove it to the Queen Mother. In fact, there is no need for this."
After hearing what An Gaoqiu said, Qin Lang realized that Chen Qiunian’s real intention today was to show the empress dowager, which was really good intentions.
Qin Lang apologized: "The incident in Pingyuanyi has caused trouble to Eunuch An."
An Gaoqiu sighed and said, "You are really sensible. You don't blame you for that matter. In fact, you don't have to worry. The Empress Dowager is so conscious that she will be moved by rumors?" She turned around and looked behind her, shook her head and said, "On the contrary, some people are too nervous."
Qin Lang said: "The person who created the lies behind him is really vicious. Don't worry, Eunuch An, I will definitely investigate the matter as soon as possible."
An Gaoqiu said, "Since the Empress Dowager doesn't believe it, it doesn't matter whether he or she is inquiring or not. Whoever likes to tell him to tell him to go, whoever dares to spread it will pass it. If you catch one and deal with it, let's see who dares to gossip." A pair of thin eyes looked at Qin Lang again: "Qin Lang, you have nothing to hide from our family, right?" He was also very curious about Qin Lang's process of retrieving Chen Weiyu. Afterwards, he calculated it. Three hours passed from his fainting to his awakening. In such a long time, I don't know how many things would happen.
Qin Lang smiled and said, "I have said everything I should say, Eunuch An just rest assured."
"We will not be wrong in our family. You will become a great man in the future. The Queen Mother knows you and says she has the opportunity to see you."
Qin Lang said respectfully: "The Empress Dowager is kind, and she is humble and treacherous."
An Gaoqiu laughed: "She just said so casually. I guess she has forgotten it now. I heard that you have been promoted to Tiance Mansion?"
Qin Lang nodded: "It's not considered a promotion, it's just a temporary call. He is currently doing business under Lord Ji."
An Gaoqiu said: "That's a slim character. You have to be careful when you follow him."
Qin Lang thought to himself, what An Gaoqiu said meant in his words is still a powerful figure who is hidden and uncovered? It seems that he usually pretends to be lazy and idle, so he should be more careful about Ji Hongcai in the future.
After a few words from the two of them, Chen Qiongnian had already come out of it. Qin Lang was a little surprised. Why did Chen Qiongnian come back so soon? Then he thought, it was reasonable. Chen Qiongnian came to visit his daughter today. It was probably under the surveillance of the court. An Gaoqiu appeared here. He said that the Empress Dowager did not believe in rumors, but only he knew the truth.
From An Gaoqiu's question just now, it can be judged that he also had doubts about the situation between him and Chen Weiyu, but An Gaoqiu did not dare to investigate in depth. Everyone reached a tacit understanding on Pingyuanyi, and no one dared to easily reveal this hole. It seems that Chen Weiyu's disappearance has little to do with An Gaoqiu.
Chen Qiongnian asked himself to come together today to prove it to the Queen Mother. An Gaoqiu would also speak well in front of the Queen Mother without any accident. Although this incident caused a storm, the storm was destined to subside.
Chen Qiongnian came to the two of them and smiled and said, "Eunuch An, you are here."
An Gaoqiu said: "Worried about disturbing your father and daughter, why did Lord Chen come out so soon?"
Chen Qiongnian shook his head and sighed, "You are too young to stay. She cares about the emperor now, so where is my father?"
An Gaoqiu said, "Mr. Chen has such a girl, what else is there to be dissatisfied?" He smiled in his heart, caring for the emperor? Chen Qiunian didn't blush when he lied. Her daughter had never seen the emperor. A twelve-year-old fool, except for eating and drinking, she couldn't even say anything clearly. If it weren't for the emperor, who would marry him?
Chen Qiongnian knew the reason why An Gaoqiu appeared here, so he was too lazy to talk nonsense to him, so he bowed and said, "I have something to do, so I will take my leave first."
"Mr. Chen walked slowly!"
An Gaoqiu greeted with a smile, and Qin Lang returned the greeting with Chen Qiunian. The two left Dabaoen Temple together, which looked very harmonious. Life is really strange. Before coming to Yongdu, Qin Lang did not expect that he and Chen Qiunian would have so many intersections, and there were more opportunities to meet than their godfather Sang Jingtian.
Chen Qiongnian left the door, and the smile on his face suddenly calmed down. He looked at Qin Lang coldly. Qin Lang felt that his eyes were not good, and he still smiled and said with a pity: "Is the meeting of Lord Chen going smoothly?"
Chen Qiongnian sneered: "When I look back, the man is in the dim light? What is your intention?"
Qin Lang lowered his voice, but said neither humble nor arrogantly: "It's just that someone has become a victim of politics and is not worth it. Although I can't give her happiness, I can at least give her a memory and hope."
Chen Qiongnian glared at Qin Lang, and the word "bold" was almost blurted out, but this was definitely not where he was attacking. He suppressed the anger in his heart. He had already figured out something when he met just now. Although his daughter and Qin Lang were physically innocent, their feelings were never simple. When he deliberately mentioned Qin Lang, he obviously noticed the abnormal movements of his daughter's eyes. This kid clearly had already messed up his daughter's mood.
Although my daughter is smart, she is not very familiar with the world, so this kid is still a bit charming.
Thinking of the red strapless breasts, Chen Qiongnian became more and more upset. He took a deep breath and took out a black iron token from his waist. This was the Demon Suppression Order, the highest level pass of the Demon Suppression Order, and handed it to Qin Lang: "Take this Demon Suppression Order. If you meet the Demon Suppression Order, they will cooperate with you and do things more conveniently."
Qin Lang quickly put it away and said, "I also want to ask Lord Chen for personal favors." He told Wang Houting about it. For Chen Qiunian, this was just a slaughter, and Chen Qiunian agreed.
After An Gaoqiu returned to the palace, he reported to Empress Dowager Xiao Zirong what he saw today.
After hearing him, Xiao Zirong smiled indifferently: "Chen Qiongnian is really cautious in doing things. What do you think?"
An Gaoqiu said: "Reporting to the Empress Dowager, this person's ability is well-known."
"Ai's family didn't ask you this. I mean, what do you think of these rumors?"
"The Empress Dowager didn't say that the Qing Dynasty would be clear. According to the sir, the relationship between Qin Lang and Chen Weiyu is indeed innocent, and there is no problem. Moreover, the Wenpo has already proved the correctness of Chen Weiyu..."
"A clean body does not necessarily mean that the heart is innocent." Xiao Zirong picked up the tea cup and swallowed the tea slowly. The one who knows women the most is still women.
An Gaoqiu was silent as a cicada, wondering what Xiao Zirong meant to say this?
Xiao Zixuan said: "If a person does something wrong, he usually subconsciously remedies it. He thinks he has done nothing, but his every move is just a cover-up of the bell in the eyes of others. Xiao Anzi, don't you?"
An Gaoqiu said: "The Empress Dowager is clear about her and she is loyal to the Empress Dowager. The sun and the moon can be seen." She was uneasy, wondering if Xiao Zixuan said this sentence Chen Qiunian or was mocking him?
"You and I know the situation of the emperor." Xiao Zirong put down the teacup, An Gaoqiu quickly answered it with his hands and eyes, and helped her gently put it on the table.
Xiao Zirong wanted to stand up, but An Gaoqiu hurriedly went to support her arm. Xiao Zirong waved his hand and signaled that he would not use it. He got up and walked into the courtyard. An Gaoqiu followed behind him and signaled that all the palace maids and eunuchs would evacuate.
Xiao Zirong came to the sun, looked up at the sky above the imperial city, frowned, and sighed softly: "I haven't seen such a good sunshine for many days. Speaking of which, Chen Wei and Yu Ai's family have never seen her. Does she look like a compatible match between her and Qin Lang?"
An Gaoqiu was stunned. How did he answer this question? Why did the Queen Mother always ask questions today?
Xiao Zixuan said: "Some people in the court want this chaos to be like a pot of porridge. Do you think we orphans and widows are easy to bully?"
