Chang'an is good

Chapter 178 Waiting For The Next Curious Time

In front of the two Zen rooms behind the Tiannv Pagoda, Ming Luo frowned upon hearing this: "He has been here?"

"Yes."

"Is he here to see Chang Suining?" Although Ming Luo was asking, his tone was already firm.

"Exactly." The monk lowered his voice in the dark, "The pagoda door is closed, the girl from the Chang family didn't disturb us, she jumped out of the window to meet Chief Cui."

Ming Luo's tone was cold: "The sage ordered her to pray here, but she had a private meeting with people here late at night. It can be said that she has no sincerity or shame at all."

But the person who came to look for her was Cui Jing. Even if the matter was reported to the saint, the saint would not say anything, let alone spread it to make a fuss.

always...

Whenever Chang Sui Ning made a mistake, she always felt helpless, and could only watch the other party act recklessly without having to bear the consequences... This is a completely different life and way of life from her, exactly as it is One of the reasons why she increasingly hated Chang Suining.

Ming Luo suppressed the unwillingness in his heart, and asked the monk seriously: "What did the two of them say?"

According to her understanding of Cui Jing, no matter how much he likes Chang Suining, he shouldn't come here late at night to find someone for no reason... Could it be related to the aunt's guess?

She is not a person who will get dizzy because of a little emotion. On top of the guess about her aunt, she dare not be careless in public or private.

But he heard the monk say: "Cui Dadu seems to have come to bid farewell to the girl from the Chang family."

"Farewell?"

"Yes." The monk's voice was even lower: "Governor Cui claims to be following a secret decree from the sage, and will leave Beijing soon."

Ming Luo was a little surprised, secret decree?
She thought of the last time Cui Jing came out of the study of Emperor Shengchi alone tonight.

"Ming female history... don't you know about this?" the monk asked with some uncertainty.

Ming Luo's face was slightly condensed: "I just didn't expect that Governor Cui would even use the saint's secret decree to reveal at will—"

The monk agreed, but didn't say anything further.

He was doing things for a saint, not the Ming Nu Shi in front of him. If Ming Nu Shi didn't know the existence of the secret decree, if he accidentally heard it, he should keep his mouth shut.

Facing the monk's scrupulousness, Ming Luo didn't feel it on the surface, but there was a distinction in his heart.

She didn't know the existence of the secret decree, and what her aunt was willing to give her was too little...

Because it is small enough, it can be taken back at any time.

That insignificant thing that can be taken back will not affect my aunt in the slightest, but it is everything she depends on for survival...

This was the source of her long-standing tension.

She didn't show any of these emotions, but then asked: "Is there anything worth noting in their conversation?"

The monk roughly recounted what he had heard, and finally said: "...for fear of being noticed by Cui Dadu, I didn't dare to get too close. As far as these conversations are concerned, there is nothing unusual about them."

Ming Luo sneered silently in his heart.

It's no different.

It's just that Chang Sui Ning's disagreement can be seen everywhere...

He said he refused, but they met late at night, talked for a long time, and watched Cui Jing leave... What is this if it's not playing hard to get?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help thinking of Cui Jing's sentence "She just uses it to fool me, I don't care"——

That Chang Suining's mind is so superficial that he can't even cover it up, but Cui Jing clearly sees it through but doesn't care at all...

Aunt seems to be the same, she clearly sees many superficial and inferior qualities of Chang Suining, but she still wants to believe that the other party and Princess Chongyue are the same person...

Is the aunt insisting on this point only because Chang Suining can copy the handwriting of the eldest princess and the words of Tianjing Guoshi?

This doubt lingered in her mind countless times, and her intuition told her that the answer might be hidden in the secret she didn't know.

Her longing for the truth of that secret is getting deeper and deeper day by day.

Ming Luo couldn't help thinking of the deal that Chang Suining had mentioned in her ear before the fire broke out in the Bairi Pagoda—the other party said that he was willing to exchange the secret she wanted to know with her for the secret hidden in the Tiannv Pagoda .

At that moment, she actually had a momentary heartbeat.

But, not to mention whether Chang Suining has other purposes, once she reveals the secret of Tiannv Pagoda, it is tantamount to betraying her aunt. Once her aunt finds out, the consequences are self-evident...

Should she take the risk and agree to Chang Suining's deal?
……

In the early morning of the next day, Chang Sui Ning got up at dawn, did morning prayers in the pagoda, and listened to monks chanting sutras.

I heard that Chang Suining was going to live in the pagoda for three days, yesterday Xi'er sent the monks who brought the burden to the pagoda, today Chang Suining changed into a light mist blue embroidered white orchid dress, and closed his eyes without speaking When kneeling on the futon, it is very quiet and indifferent.

Ming Luo looked at that face for a moment, then subconsciously looked up at the statue of the goddess, silently making a comparison in his heart.

But I don't know if it was because of something in her heart, so she really felt a sense of indescribable similarity between the two...

Is it her delusion?

Ming Luo's heart tightened slightly, and his eyes fell on the girl's face again.

Aware of that probing gaze, Chang Suining, who closed his eyes, let himself cover his mouth and yawned.

Seeing this, Ming Luo's condensed thoughts were interrupted, and he felt that the sense of resemblance that had no basis in the first place dissipated immediately.

After an early class, she watched the girl secretly yawn a dozen times.

Ming Luo's eyes mocked.

It can be seen that last night was indeed busy meeting people secretly, and did not have a good rest.

After the morning class, Chang Suining's fast food and Ming Luo's were put together, and the two sat opposite each other to eat.

When Chang Sui Ning wanted to pick up the chopsticks, he only heard the person opposite said coldly: "Praying for blessings requires sincerity and concentration. Mrs. Chang is tired and sleepy after morning class, and she keeps stretching. It is inappropriate and disrespectful."

Chang Suining didn't raise his head when he heard the words, just picked up the bamboo chopsticks as usual, and said casually: "Drowsiness is really uncontrollable, but since I emphasize concentration, the female history of the Ming Dynasty has been staring at me. Is it more disrespectful to be so absent-minded."

Ming Luo frowned.

"Or—" Chang Suining held the bamboo chopsticks, and then raised his eyes to look at the opposite side: "The job of the female historian of the Ming Dynasty is not to pray for blessings, but to watch over me?"

Ming Luo's eyelashes moved slightly.

Did Chang Suining guess something...

Her face remained calm: "Since I was ordered by the saint to be in charge of blessing matters in the pagoda, I should pay attention to all people and things related to blessing—"

Chang Sui Ning Hun nodded indifferently, and put a piece of bamboo shoots into his mouth.

Seeing this, Ming Luo frowned again.

Chang Suining didn't wait for her, and quickly finished his portion of vegetarian food, and there was nothing left.

She already has a big appetite, and her years of military life have made her used to it, so she can't see food being wasted.

Ming Luo saw it in his eyes, but felt that this move seemed to be out of character, as if the person sitting opposite was not a noble lady in Beijing at all, but a person who was used to hunger.

Perhaps the blood of the poor and poor is flowing in his bones, and he grew up in the gate of a rude general, so this behavior is justifiable——

This "high and low" phenomenon calmed Ming Luo's mind, she put down her chopsticks calmly, and when Chang Sui Ning wanted to get up and leave, she said in a low voice: "Chang Niang, do you still want to make a deal with me?" ?”

Hearing the words, Chang Suining seems to have recalled it, and indeed recalled it for a while, before he remembered what the deal Ming Luo said was.

After thinking about it, he said, "I don't want to."

Ming Luo: "?"

It is impossible for her to be so simple as to sincerely want to exchange secrets with the other party. She just wanted to test whether Chang Suining really knew something, but the other party said bluntly... don't want to?

In sight, the girl stood up and casually said to her, "I'm not curious anymore, and I'll look for Ming Nvshi someday when I become curious."

Ming Luo let out a muffled laugh.

What is this nonsense?

What does she think of herself as coming and going as soon as she is called?

Do you really think that everyone should revolve around her?
Chang Suining doesn't care what Ming Luo thinks.

Not to mention that she proposed exchanging secrets yesterday, her original intention was just to set fire to it conveniently, but even if she wanted to know the secrets in the Tiannv Tower, she would not be so naive as to choose to make a deal with Ming Luo——Ming Luo was prepared to be hostile to her so far, but also afraid Yu Minghou's coercion, telling the truth with her is the devil.

For the rest of the answers, Wujue must know more details.

Speaking of infinity...

"Why don't you see the abbot come here today?" Chang Suining walked out of the quiet room where he was eating fast, and casually asked the monks guarding outside.

"Amitabha, return to the usual benefactor, the abbot is ordered by the saint to preside over the sacrifices to the heroic spirits in the Hall of Valor today and tomorrow."

Chang Sui Ning nodded clearly.

It turned out that it was dismissed by Empress Ming.

Empress Dowager had no time to visit the Tiannv Pagoda in person, so even Wujue couldn't get away.

Sacrifice the heroic spirit...

There is a Hall of Heroes in the Dayun Temple, where there are spiritual seats for the meritorious generals who died in the battlefield in the past, and they are enshrined here all the year round.

The purpose of this time is to pray for the soldiers who are seeking rebellion abroad, and this reason is considered appropriate.

But now that the formation has been destroyed, it would be better if everything is there. She only needs to stay in the tower for three days, and make plans for the rest after leaving the tower.

When Ming Luo came out, he saw Chang Sui Ning copying scriptures behind the screen.

At this time, an internal servant came forward, bowed to Ming Luo, and said: "Mrs. Ying Guogong is outside, and said that she needs to see the female history, please come out of the tower to explain."

Chang looking for her?

Ming Luo's face remained calm, and he nodded slightly: "Let Madam wait for a while."

The servant then went out to answer.

Ming Luo unhurriedly arranged all the trivial matters before going out to see Mrs. Chang.

She didn't explain, but just saluted Mrs. Chang and said, "I kept my mother waiting for a long time."

Chang smiled gently, without any sense of impatience or blame from the long wait: "You are here busy with the business that the sage told you, so it would be inappropriate for mother to come rashly."

This little concubine, like the other two concubines in the house, was supposed to be firmly in her hands, but who knew that the heavens gave her a piece of good luck, and the other party cleverly caught her and gave birth to wings... fly away...

So, now she actually needs her, the aunt, to smile at her.

At this time, he was not cowardly and flattering when speaking to her, and even had a two-pronged indifference: "I don't know why mother came here in person?"

Chang's face was troubled, and he signaled Ming Luo to go aside and talk alone with his eyes.

Ming Luo followed her slowly to the linden tree.

"Mother came to look for you... because of Shen's injury." Chang said in a low voice: "Although doctors have tried their best to heal you these days, there are still some obstacles left..."

Ming Luo sneered in his heart.

something gets in the way...

It's really subtle.

There was a hint of sympathy in her tone: "Ah Shen is my younger brother, I can't bear to see him like this, but I'm not a doctor, so I can't help much... I don't know what mother wants me to do? "

"The doctors in the palace have all seen it, and there is no good plan... My mother thought, can I ask the saint to send someone to the people to find a good doctor who is good at this?"

Chang said: "Mom has inquired recently about a miracle doctor in the Western Regions, who has the ability to regenerate dead wood..."

She has secretly found many doctors for her son these days, and she got this news from one of them.

I heard that the genius doctor can cut off the root of an eunuch and continue to grow again... If there is such a person, then her Ah Shen will have hope.

But in the vast Western Regions, finding such a person is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack, and it would be great if a sage could come forward to help.

Ming Luo just thought it was funny.

Now that the Chang family even believes such rumors, it seems that the situation of the mother and son in Ying Guogong's mansion is probably not good.

"Why doesn't mother go and talk to the saint herself?"

Is it because I went to ask for a meeting but failed to see the holy face?

Faced with this well-informed question, Chang smiled. Instead of showing signs of anger, his tone became more gentle: "The sage has been busy with government affairs recently, and my mother is inconvenient to disturb you rashly. But you are different. You serve the sage on a daily basis, so naturally you can Find a good time to speak..."

He also said: "Besides, looking at the younger generation of the Ming family, the sage treats you most favorably. If you can speak up, the sage will definitely pay more attention to you."

Ming Luo smiled slightly.

Her aunt is really flexible, in order to persuade her, she is not afraid to praise her so high.

If she hadn't had a good memory, she wouldn't have believed that the kind-hearted woman in front of her eyes was actually the high-ranking, indifferent and harsh mother-in-law who looked at her as if she was a lowly ant.

Although he knew that the other party's kindness and even flattery at the moment were fake, but the fake ones were also very good, and even better than the real ones.

She really liked looking at the way the other party had to please her at this moment.

That's one of the reasons she doesn't want to go back to the past.

The more so, the more she can't go back.

"Ah Shen's business is my business." She said slowly, "Mother, don't worry."

Since the other party begged her like this, of course she should be more generous.

Anyway, she was just opening her mouth to say something, she is not a fairy, after all, her elder brother who has everything but never has a brain, will not be cured just because she just said a word.

"Then mother will entrust this matter to you." Chang Shi lightly held Ming Luo's hand, and said in a low voice: "Mother knows that it is not easy for you to walk alone in the palace hall, if Ah Shen recovers in the future, He must be grateful to you as an elder sister... From now on, you and your siblings will be of one mind, and our Duke Ying's Mansion will also be your backer."

Ming Luo smiled and nodded: "That's the truth."

So I started to promise her, just because I was afraid that she would not do things wholeheartedly.

It can be seen that her aunt is really worried, worried about her son, and even more worried about losing her position in Duke Ying's mansion.

……

"Ma'am, do you think the county lord is really willing to help?" On the way back, Chang's confidant servant asked uncertainly.

"Of course I know what she's thinking, but no matter whether she is willing or not, I will try my best to try everywhere now, and the more I try, the more hope I will have..." Chang frowned and said, "The sooner Ah Shen gets healed, the more hopeful she will be." It is possible to recover, and we must not be negligent in the matter of finding that Western Region genius doctor."

The servant woman should "yes".

Chang's: "Follow me to see him first."

She originally intended to comfort her son out of concern, but when she came to the meditation room where Ming Jin was staying, seeing the situation in the room, her expression immediately darkened.

　Ask for a monthly pass for help!

　　Going home, I will make up for these few days before the end of the month!
　　I would recommend YTT Taotao’s ancient sayings about farming——"My Live Broadcasting Room Connects the Past and the Present". She told me very seriously that this is a story about a grandparent and grandson who just crossed over and ate shit...

　　The number of words is already fat, and it will be on the shelves today, so go see her for a new update!
