Chapter 204 Encounter at the Mountain Temple

"I think His Majesty doesn't want to hurt the Queen's heart, nor do you want to bring up the bad debts before," Shen Jiangdong said, "Actually... when the King of Anping County was defeated, it was a good opportunity to reverse the case for the Duke of Yasukuni. I really don't know Your Majesty. What do you think?"

Jiang Feng said: "I only know that the queen is very unhappy about this matter."

"The Queen is not happy because of the title of He Mei's family," Shen Jiangdong said, "But the Queen is not willing to give the title to Ye Lancheng, it's awkward."

Jiang Feng didn't speak, and Shen Jiangdong asked, "What's wrong? Why don't you speak?"

Jiang Feng said: "Yuanxi, I have been thinking all the time that I joined the military guard to find out the truth and avenge my father. But after several years of ups and downs, there is no clue about this matter. The He family has fallen, and the former military guard Whether Commander Chen Nanfei is alive or dead, I don't know if I will have a chance to find out."

---

Jiang Feng was so busy that he was going to leave Beijing for Jiangnan Division.She hasn't been to Jigu Pavilion for a long time, so she went to Yuan Lingbo to check the documents for a day.

Mrs. Uncle Qingyun married her daughter on this day, and Jiang Feng was desperately asked to go to the banquet. Jiang Feng had never been involved in these matters before, and it was hard to refuse if he started this before.

I didn't see Ye Lanzhi at the banquet that day. During the banquet, Jiang Feng came out to breathe, and saw Ye Lanzhi in the pavilion in the side courtyard of Uncle Qingyun's mansion. A bit like Siqing, but gentler than Siqing, seeing that Jiang Feng was still called uncle and wife, Jiang Feng agreed.

Jiang Feng asked Ye Lanzhi how he was doing recently, and he didn't ask about the Ye family's fourth wife leaving the imperial capital.

During the dinner, because Mrs. Yongning Hou didn't come, Mrs. Qingyun said: "I invited my son, she is not very well."

Some people said: "Your Majesty's heart is kind, Kang Wang's mansion conspired against him, so he only dealt with a few people, but he didn't get up. The Yongning Hou Mansion doesn't know why it's guilty, it's afraid it will be like this."

Jiang Feng knew that the present was waiting to catch them all, so he left room and didn't say anything.Someone mentioned Lin Bofu again, "Why didn't you see Mrs. Xu?"

Mrs. Qing Yunbo smiled and said, "I heard that Mrs. Xu doesn't like to go out." She pushed Jiang Feng, "Then Mrs. Xu looks like you, but her temperament is very different."

Mrs. Cheng Guo said: "Xu Shangshu is very lucky to have such a wife."

Jiang Feng went to the banquet at Uncle Qingyun's mansion, but he was still a little worried about Lin Bofu, so he went to Xu's house.Outsiders said that Jiang Feng was similar to Lin Bofu. Jiang Feng always felt infinite pity for such a gentle face that resembled himself.

Lin Bofu lived in an exquisite small building in Xujiayuan, and went up along the stacked rockery. Jiang Feng didn't let anyone tell him, but he heard a harsh voice saying: "Madam is young, I don't know that this big family inside……"

Jiang Feng then stepped forward and said, "What's the matter?"

Lin Bofu was wearing a dull blue gown with some jewels nailed to the cuffs and neckline, he stood up quickly and said, "Mrs. Jia Guogong is here."

Jiang Feng smiled, and the servant girl opposite Lin Bofu was wearing a water-colored dress. She hurriedly greeted her, took her leave first, and said to her servant as she walked down, "We all know that Mrs. Jia is lonely, but our wife and Mrs. Jia are lonely." Well, really!"

The servant smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? What can our wife compare with Mrs. Jia Guo? Mrs. Jia can even coax the queen."

Jiang Fengdao and Lin Bofu chatted for a few words, Lin Bofu smiled and asked Qiuye to take out a box and open it, and took out a lotus-colored flower and bird cloak. The flower and bird embroidery on the cloak is so delicate, Lin Bofu said: "I have nothing to worry about Thanks to Mrs. Shen, the satin that the noble concubine gave you before, I made this dress and gave it to Mrs. Shen."

Jiang Feng got up and tried on the clothes, and said with a smile, "You keep it and wear it, give it to me, it's a waste."

Qiu Ye said with a smile: "Madam is always good at joking, this color suits Madam."

Jiang Feng said: "Then I'll accept it. Thank you for your trouble." Then he said, "I'm going to leave Beijing for a while, if you have something to do, ask Qiu Ye to tell Xia Ying, don't be embarrassed." Leaving, Lin Bofu said: "I will see Mrs. Jia Guogong."

After sending Jiang Feng two steps away, a little girl ran over and said, "Miss Housekeeper Zhai said please go madam..."

Jiang Feng said to Lin Bofu: "You go quickly. Just send me the autumn leaves."

Qiu Ye stepped forward to follow Jiang Feng, Lin Bofu left with the little girl, Jiang Feng asked Qiu Ye, "How are you doing recently?"

Qiu Ye said: "It's hard to worry about Madam like this, it's getting better recently. My aunt and grandma are coming up soon, and both sides are fine."

"You've been wronged," Jiang Feng said, "How can there be such bad things in our family?"

Qiu Ye said: "Your maidservant is not wronged. Didn't you eat well and dress well in Xu's house? Madam said that there is no way for Xu's house to be separated from the road. The servant girl doesn't understand why the girl is so desperate. Speaking of it, if in the past That Du Hanlin, not to mention the young girl who is younger than the girl, has such a body, such a beautiful appearance, there is no second one in the court, and the girl just loves it. Here is this one..." Qiuye paused at this point All of a sudden, he continued: "This one here, I really don't know what is worthy of the girl's heart."

"In the eyes of beholders, I'm afraid not only Xi Shi, but also Pan An," Jiang Feng said, "Who can explain this kind of thing clearly?"

While the two were talking, another little girl came to Qiuye, "Sister Qiuye! Sister Qiuye! Go and see, Aunt Mei..." Seeing Jiang Feng was there, the little girl closed her mouth again.

Qiu Ye said: "What's the matter? Didn't she stop?"

Jiang Feng said: "Let's go, I don't have anything to do anyway, I will follow you to broaden my horizons."

Jiang Feng and Qiu Ye found Lin Bofu, who was angry with someone.Jiang Feng ignored Aunt Mei when he saw it, walked in with a smile, and said, "Why are you so busy? I thought about it, and you haven't been to my house yet. I'm leaving Beijing for a while, so let's sit at my place today." Sit down." Without any explanation, he pulled up Limbo Fu and walked out.

Lin Bofu was a little embarrassed, "I made Mrs. Jia Guo laugh."

Jiang Feng said: "Which family has nothing bad on their minds."

Jiang Feng insisted on letting Lin Bofu go, so Lin Bofu had no choice but to change into a bamboo leaf cloak and go with Jiang Feng to Shen's house by car.Since she married into Xu's family, she seldom left Xu's house, so she couldn't help being curious when she left the house.Jiang Feng said: "Although the imperial capital is prosperous, it is too noisy after all. You must not be used to marrying in the imperial capital so far away?"

Lin Bofu whispered softly: "I don't come out of the house often, I just feel that autumn is a bit dry, and everything else is fine. I don't know where Mrs. Jia is from?"

Jiang Feng said: "I'm from Fuzhou in the north. I think Yuhang is good. If it were me, I would definitely not want to marry so far away."

Lin Bofu lowered his head and said, "Isn't it all about fate?"

The two got off the car in front of Duke Jia's mansion, and Lao Xia came up to meet him and said, "Ma'am came back just in time, King Xiao Jing is here, and it just so happens that the Lord has gone into the palace..."

I saw Xiao Jing Wang Xiaoyu slashing out from the courtyard of Duke Jia's mansion, waving his sleeves and laughing: "Sister-in-law of the Shen family, this is rare."

Jiang Feng pulled Lin Bofu into the atrium, but Lin Bofu hurriedly avoided.King Xiao Jing saw that Lin Bofu was wearing a green long-sleeved gown with a straight collar and a light milky white skirt, which was elegant, chic, and gentle, so he couldn't help asking, "Is this Sister Lan Zhi?"

Jiang Feng couldn't help but chuckle when he heard him call Siqing's cousin his younger sister, "This is Xu Wenchang's wife, my lord, don't joke."

Lin Bo saluted hastily and hid aside, Xia Ying stepped forward to lead her away.Jiang Feng asked, "Why is the Nine Kings here?"

Who knew that King Xiao Jing just stared at Lin Bofu's back with his neck stuck up, as if he didn't hear him.Jiang Feng had no choice but to ask again. King Xiao Jing woke up like a dream, and said embarrassedly: "What can I do? No, since I stayed in Xijing for two years, I was not acclimatized, and something happened again when I came back to King Kang's Mansion. I was also sick. It was just fine before, so I haven’t come here. I heard that Mr. Yuan Xi’s old injury has relapsed and he’s sick again, so I don’t bring ginseng from Xijing, so I’ll give him supplements.”

Jiang Feng said with a smile: "Thank you so much, I'd like to thank you for a special trip. Yuanxi is better today and has gone to the palace. I will tell him to go to the palace..."

"That's all," Xiao Jingwang waved his hands again and again, "Sister-in-law, what kind of bureaucratic talk are you talking about with me? By the way..." He seemed to remember something, "Sister-in-law, is the matter of Prince Kang's mansion over?"

Jiang Feng said: "I've checked everything that needs to be checked, and I'm going to leave the capital. Whether the capital is over or not depends on His Majesty's will."

King Xiao Jing said: "Third brother's expression recently... I dare not inquire about it casually. And sister-in-law, I also want to ask, did you tell the female relatives that she would be a matchmaker for me when Princess Er'an celebrated her birthday last time?"

Jiang Feng smiled and said, "It's not a coincidence that you asked me. You know, I don't want to answer these things. Princess An just passed her birthday and didn't go. I'll ask Mrs. Xiao Xu." After speaking, let Yueying ask Lin Bofu.

King Xiaojing watched Lin Bofu disappear in a daze, Jiang Feng said: "Finally going to marry the princess?"

"Sister-in-law, don't tease me," King Xiao Jing said, "How happy it is not to be married. The last time Yuanxi Gong went to the palace to see the little lady, did the little lady mention my marriage?"

Jiang Feng laughed, "The Nine Kings are joking again, how could the noble concubine talk to Yuan Xi about the Tian family's marriage?"

King Xiao Jing waved his sleeves, "Sister-in-law's words are unreasonable! How much money the little lady has hidden and where the silver box is opened, I don't think the third brother may know, but Yuan Xi must know!"

When Yueying came back, she reported: "Princess An said that she would tell the prince about the cousin of Princess Changqing."

"Yes," Xiao Jing Wang said, "I see, thank you sister-in-law, I am prepared for any danger." After saying this, he was about to leave, saying that he would go to the British government.

Jiang Feng sent Xiao Jingwang to sit with Lin Bofu in the Yongyue Pavilion, just talking about trivial matters.Because thinking of Qiu Ye's saying that Lin Bofu didn't like Mrs. Lin's frequent visits to Xu's mansion, Jiang Feng asked someone to pick Mrs. Lin up during dinner at night.Mrs. Lin refused to come at first, Xia Ying went to invite her, and said with a smile: "I only came to invite my uncle and wife because Mrs. Xiao Xu is here, and I am afraid that she will be uncomfortable. There are no outsiders, so my uncle and wife don't have to be reserved."

After picking up Mrs. Lin, the three of them had dinner by the waterside pavilion. Mrs. Lin was talkative, so the dinner was not too embarrassing.For a while, Xiaying said that Shen Jiangdong had returned home, and the two aunts and sisters-in-law hurriedly left.Jiang Feng knew that their aunt and sister-in-law had something to say, so he sent them out.

Jiang Feng changed his clothes and went to the small study, only to see Shen Jiangdong rubbing the flute again, Jiang Feng said with a smile: "Your flute, if you rub it again, the bamboo will peel off."

"It's changed!" Shen Jiangdong said, "This is the flute!"

"King Xiao Jing came to send ginseng today," Jiang Feng said, "and asked me if someone would match him."

Shen Jiangdong said: "The daughter of Xu Daoji of Honglu Temple, the cousin of Princess Changqing, His Majesty still said today that it is shameful for him not to marry the princess."

Jiang Feng said: "If you want me to say it won't work, let's see."

The next day Jiang Feng went to Qingxi Garden to meet Si Qing, and he couldn't help talking about Lin Bofu.Because Lin Bofu married into the Xu family, Siqing did not tell the Lin family about her background.Si Qing said: "Since this is the case, why don't you make up? How long will it take? I want to handle this matter hard, and I'm afraid that the Lin family will be overwhelmed. This marriage is just a joke."

Jiang Feng said: "I also said the same thing. It's a crime for Miss Lin to refuse."

Siqing also didn't understand, "Miss Lin has a crush on whoever she likes, but she just fell in love with him. Brother Lin is also the same, let the younger sister mess around."

Jiang Feng said: "I can't help it, Miss Lin is looking for death, so what should I do?"

Jiang Feng was about to go south. Before she went south last time, Siqing thought about one thing, but she didn't say anything in the end.This time, Ningshou Mansion was investigating her "adopted father" again, and she thought of the guy Lan who died in Weiyang inexplicably in Xining in 13 years, and wanted to ask Jiang Feng to look on her behalf, but she couldn't open her mouth. (Mr. Lan saw the high-rise Lianyuan in Chapter 7)
It is embarrassing to speak out about the bad things of the Ye family, especially to the Shen family.Reminiscent of Ye Lancheng's unhappiness when he returned to Beijing this time, and Shen Jiangdong's "uncle" helplessness towards Ye Lancheng, Si Qing swallowed the words again.

When Jiang Feng was in Beijing, he often went to visit Lin Bofu, and Lin Bofu always cried secretly.As soon as Jiang Feng left Beijing, Lin Bofu's life in Xu's house became more and more difficult. Lin Zhizhong and his wife came to the door, but Lin Bofu just cried, "Brother, don't come here, this is my fate." Lin Zhizhong The couple repented, and when they mentioned the matter of reconciliation, Lin Bofu shook his head blindly. Lin Zhizhong's words were harsh, and Lin Bofu cried: "I will die here as well."

Lin Zhizhong and his wife couldn't make up their minds, and they didn't dare to tell their father. They discussed with Mrs. Lin about a new project, and if it's not good next spring, they have to take their sister back anyway.

Lin Bofu was sad for more than a month, and took Qiuye to Biyun Temple in Xishan to offer incense. He wanted to ask Mrs. Lin to accompany her, but it happened that Mrs. Lin just went out when Qiuye went to Lin's house to look for Mrs. Lin.

Lin Bofu said: "Forget it, let's go." The group left Xu's house and went out of the city to Biyun Temple in Xishan.

It was the end of summer at this time, and it was still very hot in the afternoon, so not many female relatives came to the temple to offer incense.Lin Bofu worshiped alone for a long time, and went to the release pond to release many small fish. Qiuye said: "It's getting late, let's go back." On the contrary, it is more than in the afternoon.Lin Bofu was afraid that he would meet other officials and had to greet them, so he nodded slightly.

Qiu Ye took out a tulle cloak to put on her, and prepared to go out of the temple to find Xu's driver.Who would have thought that today's clear weather would be followed by thunder at dusk, and the master and servant had just walked into the mountain gate when it began to rain heavily and were trapped in the cave of the mountain gate.
