The red building is so arrogant

At the foot of the majestic Buddha statue of Baoxiang, two sweaty worms were wrapped in a golden kapok cassock. The filthy smell mixed with the smell of sandalwood lingered in the main hall.

Jiao Shun continued to use the cassock as a bath towel, carelessly wiped off the sweat and filth from his body, then tore off the clothes placed on the altar, and put them on himself.

When she was fully dressed, she looked back at the feet of the Guanyin statue, and saw that Third Sister You was still wrapped in cassock, cuddling on the lotus platform like mud, and she seemed to have not fully recovered from the trance just now.

Thinking of her crazy appearance just now, Jiao Shun couldn't help but secretly shook his head, as the saying goes, too much is too much, although this little hoof is willing to do anything, but it does not have Miaoyu's sense of blasphemy.

After all, there is no faith and awe at all, so how can there be a sense of immorality?
If he had known this earlier, he shouldn't have promised her to come to the temple to mess around.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the palace.

"Who?"

"It's me, Jingyi."

Hearing that Jingyi was Miaoyu's only confidant, Jiao Shun stepped forward and lowered the latch, and gently opened the door a gap.

Jingyi immediately walked in sideways along the gap, then showed the half-full wooden bucket in her hand, lowered her head and said: "It's just warm water, I'll wash it off later."

Then, he handed over a clean towel.

Jiao Shun hesitated for a moment, but chose to take off his clothes again, and used the towel to clean his vital parts—although he was only staying overnight in Xing Xiuyan and Heping'er's house because he was afraid of fetal gas, and the two of them were not alone. I will argue with him about this, but it is always good to bring back some traces.

Jingyi also blushed and rolled up her sleeves, and scooped up water with a gourd ladle to help him rinse.

As time goes by, Jiao Shun will naturally not let her as an insider go, and he and Miao Yu have already accepted it together, so there is nothing to worry about.

"Bah~!"

At this moment, they suddenly heard a scolding voice from behind them, and they both turned their heads to look, only to see Third Sister You sitting cross-legged on the altar table at some point, holding a two-bitten apple in one hand, and pointing to this side with the other. The son shouted: "Where are the idiots complaining about women? Why don't you worship the Bodhisattva when you see it?"

Demon again...

Jiao Shun rolled his eyes and didn't bother to pay attention to her.

Jingyi was hesitant to speak, and wanted to persuade Third Sister You not to blaspheme the Buddha, but thinking of what her master and servant had done, she seemed not qualified to teach her a lesson.

Seeing that neither of them answered, Third Sister You poked out a slender jade leg from the cassock, hooked her pale toes pretentiously, and said with a smile, "Even you are willing to worship that useless clay Bodhisattva." , I am a caring Bodhisattva who is willing to give, why do you not worship?"

Hearing this, Jiao Shun walked quickly to the altar, just when Third Sister You was about to greet her, he suddenly reached out and pulled the kapok cassock, wiped off the water stains on his body, and threw it back casually.

While getting dressed, he said, "Go home when you've had enough fun, don't trouble Miaoyu—by the way, tell your sister, I'm going to set up an embroidery shop for her, it doesn't matter if it makes money or not, it's all up to you." It is used to pass the time and relieve boredom."

With that said, he pushed the door open and walked out.

Not to mention, this kapok cassock is quite useful. It is breathable, moisture-absorbing, and skin-friendly, which is better than many bedding.

"Bah~"

Third Sister You threw the kapok cassock on the ground and spat, "What a stinky man who unloads the mill and kills the donkey!"

Immediately, she scolded Jingyi again: "What are you looking at? Go and get me the Four Treasures of the Study, and it's best to get some colored ink. Auntie wants to draw down what happened just now, frame it and hang it in the Daxiong Palace—— Let's see if he dares to ignore me then!"

Jingyi was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "It can't be done, there has been some incense in the temple recently, if someone sees it..."

"So what if you see it?"

Third Sister You sneered: "The filthy people in your temple have done so many shady things. If you have done it, don't be afraid of people knowing! Besides, I am painting myself, what has it to do with you?" coherent?!"

Jingyi knew that she was a person who could say what she could do, and she was always dragging her back, so she didn't dare to argue with her any more, so she hurriedly opened the door and chased her out, taking Sanjie You's words to heart. I gave it to Jiao Shun.

"If she wants to paint, let her paint."

But Jiao Shun didn't take it seriously at all, and said: "If Jia Xichun, the fourth girl who used to come here often, said this, it would still have some weight, depending on her? I'm afraid that even she can't recognize what she draws."

So he ignored it, walked around to the backyard, and drove away.

When he returned to his mansion, the night was already dark.

Seeing that the lights were still on in the main room, Jiao Shun planned to have a chat with Shi Xiangyun before going to the wing room to rest.

After entering the door, he found that Shi Xiangyun was playing chess with Xing Xiuyan, so he stepped forward and asked with a smile, "What is the outcome today?"

"Sister Xing is better at chess."

Seeing that he finally came back, Shi Xiangyun hurriedly told about Tanchun's visit in the afternoon, and said, "I see that the third sister was a little uneasy when she left, and I don't know if the Rongguo Mansion can escape this time. "

"Hard to say."

Jiao Shun took advantage of the opportunity to sit behind her, stroking her lower abdomen gently around her waist, and said: "When I entered the palace the first two times, Concubine Xiande didn't give any feedback. Contact, I don't know if she has a plan in mind, or if she feels that she can't be saved, she just chooses to break the can."

"Should be able to figure out a way, right? I still vaguely remember that the eldest sister was the smartest one. At that time, she was no less than the third younger sister today. Now that she has been in the palace for a long time, she must have experienced more and more."

"hope so."

Jiao Shun didn't really want to discuss these inconclusive matters, so he changed the topic and asked: "By the way, I asked someone to send home the Trojan horse early this afternoon, do you like it?"

"Master, I'm bothering you, but I like the long pillow you brought back a few days ago..."

…………

The night is getting darker.

Different from the warm atmosphere in the backyard of the Jiao family, the Yuyun Garden of Jingren Palace is inexplicably bleak. Although the characters and scenery are the same as in the past, the perception is quite different from the past.

The virtuous concubine Jia Yuanchun stood in front of the desk, looking at the note that had been written long ago, her eyebrows were slightly frowned and her face was tangled.

She is by no means the kind of person who gives up on herself. These days, through the clues she noticed before and the information she collected secretly, she has found a way to excuse the Lin family.

But she is not sure right now, this method will definitely have the expected effect.

just in case……

Jia Yuanchun bit his cherry lips lightly and hesitated for a long time, finally chose one from several pieces of paper, carefully rolled it up and put it close to his body.

As for the other notes, they were all burned by her.

In this way, the day turned to June 24.

As usual, Jia Yuanchun went to Qianqing Palace to help sort out and summarize the memorial, but unlike her usual concentration, most of her mind was put elsewhere.

Because of this, she vaguely noticed Wu Guifei's restlessness, and...

That trace of inexplicable expectation.

Did something happen to Zhongcui Palace again?
The last time I heard news related to Concubine Wu, it seemed that she and Concubine Rong had a face-to-face quarrel.

Jia Yuanchun was slightly curious, but what she wanted to pay attention to today was not 'competitors'.

As time passed, seeing that it was not long before the end of the lecture in the study room, Jia Yuanchun couldn't help sweating secretly, until the emperor ordered Dai Quan to invite Jiao Shun as usual, she was relieved.

Then he silently checked to see if the ball of paper that he carried close to him was still there.

At the same time, Concubine Wu Gui unconsciously began to hold her breath.

Although she prefers the scene where she fantasizes about the queen's "lady is dusty", it doesn't mean that Jiao Shun's role in it is less.

In other words, she once thought about dragging Concubine Rong into the water, and later used this to have a tea party with the empress, and then threw this idea to the sky - how could the fat woman join in? !
Speaking of the qualifications to participate, on the contrary...

Concubine Wu Gui quietly looked at Jia Yuanchun. She was happy to see Jia Yuanchun fall out of favor, but she did not deny Jia Yuanchun's unique ability in the harem.

Your Majesty probably will die soon, and as a concubine or even queen mother, I will definitely try to protect my son. If I have an assistant who is proficient in government affairs by my side, it will undoubtedly save a lot of trouble.

The premise is that this virtuous concubine should also be knowledgeable and interesting.

It's a pity, why doesn't she have a handle like Jiao Shun to hold herself in the palm of her hand?

Just as she was thinking about something, Concubine Wu Gui suddenly noticed that something was wrong. Although Jia Yuanchun bent over his desk to read the official documents as in the past, when he looked closely, he always gave people the feeling of being absent-minded.

What's wrong with her?
Usually he looks like a wooden man, so is there something special about him today?
Speaking of what's special about today...

Concubine Wu Gui was thinking, when she heard the report from the eunuch that Jiao Shun had arrived outside the palace gate, she hurriedly collected her thoughts and tried her best to pretend to be calm and composed.

But the more you do this deliberately, the more you can't help but think about it.

When Jiao Shun actually walked into the hall, Concubine Wu Gui was full of imaginings in her mind, as if it was not a single person who walked in, but a whole set of Wuma HD.

Jiao Shun didn't know that he had unknowingly turned into the hero of the island country series. After entering the palace, he respectfully bowed his eyes to Jia Yuanchun.

The moment their eyes met, the two had a tacit understanding.

So Jiao Shun tried his best to make a long speech citing classics and citing allusions, and also picked out what the emperor was interested in, successfully dragging the meeting to the transition time.

And taking advantage of Emperor Longyuan's transfer, Jiao Shun quietly moved a few steps closer to Jia Yuanchun sideways, rolled up his sleeves intentionally or unintentionally, and spread his hands diagonally downwards.

When his hand retracted into the sleeve again, there was already a small ball of paper silently in his palm.

This scene was silent, swift and secretive, especially since Jiao Shun deliberately blocked his sight with his body, so it stands to reason that the team could hide it from everyone present.

however……

No matter how much you cover it up, you can't stop someone from thinking too much from the start!
Were those two people secretly communicating the song just now? !

Concubine Wu Gui's heart was beating wildly. Although she didn't see clearly what Jiao Shun had done just now, she felt that there must be something tricky in it!
And she didn't have any evidence. After that moment, Jia Yuanchun's right hand and right arm had obviously moved - although this doesn't explain anything, it is enough to confirm the woman's intuition!
Even in just a short moment, Concubine Wu Gui made up the history of the humble house slave and the daughter of the Duke's mansion, the past that she couldn't love, and the new development of the boat that still did not forget the old love after the humble house slave made great achievements.

Isn't this exactly what I want? !
Even if the relationship between the two is not what I imagined, it doesn't matter, just the fact that the foreign minister and the concubine have hooked up is already a big crime.

The premise is...

I have to try to catch them upright!

However, this step has stumped Concubine Wu. It is easy to report and expose, but what she wants is to take Jia Yuanchun for her own use—besides, this Jiao Shun is already destined to be her son's number one loyal dog. To report him, wouldn't it mean that he would cut off his own arm?
Just when Concubine Wu Gui was full of thoughts of taking stolen goods from thieves and catching traitors, Jiao Shun's prelude to the king had come to an end.

Seeing that the fatigue on Emperor Longyuan's face was getting stronger, Jiao Shun stopped talking in good time and bowed to resign.

At this moment, the emperor raised his spirits again and asked, "I heard that your wife is having a wedding recently?"

Jiao Shun hastily knelt down and said: "I am terrified, I don't want to worry about family matters, but I can alarm Sheng Ting."

"Haha, this is a happy event, you should have told me earlier."

Emperor Longyuan couldn't help coughing twice after laughing, and then continued: "Let's see if it's a man or a woman. If it's a man, I will give him a Yunqi Captain first."

"Sir, thank you Lord Long En!"

Jiao Shun hastily kowtowed to thank him, Captain Yunqi is a sixth-rank noble, although it is not very honorable, it is not a small honor.

Emperor Longyuan urged him a few more words, then waved his hand to signal him to back down.

But when Jiao Shun left the dormitory, he didn't care about being happy for his 'son', so he directly resorted to the method of urination, and turned out the note Jia Yuanchun gave him in the toilet, and carefully opened it to look at it.

It can be seen that there are two lines of elegant lowercase letters on it. The first line reads: Looking through the old files recently, combined with what I heard in the hidden residence, Lin Ruhai is suspected to be one of the emperor's internal treasury sources.

tsk~
Jiao Shun couldn't help but be speechless when he saw it, he thought that this virtuous concubine was silent, but she actually found out a lot of secrets.

Of course, it’s not surprising when you look into this matter carefully. Jiao Shun vaguely remembers watching a TV series before, which seems to be called "Great Qing Salt Merchant". The salt officials and salt merchants in the drama are actually Emperor Qianlong. An important source of income for the internal treasury.

With this relationship, it might not be impossible to take the opportunity to turn the Lin family's affairs into a minor one.

After all, once the Supreme Emperor is found out, things will not end well.

but……

Jiao Shun's eyes fell on the second line again, and saw that it said: If it is due to the old incident at the beginning of the year, will it be self-defeating?

What happened at the beginning of the year, self-defeating?
Jiao Shun thought about it carefully, and couldn't help frowning.

This should be referring to the fact that when the emperor was critically ill at the beginning of the year, the Supreme Emperor regained power, but he did not actively hand over power afterwards—even until now, the Supreme Emperor is still interfering in government affairs.

So……

Once this matter is uncovered, will it be used by the emperor as a means to attack the prestige of the Supreme Emperor?

If so, it is really self-defeating.
