After rebirth, the prince will fight in the house for me

"Oh?"

Qu Yunchu was not used to how considerate he was today.

Thinking of the "adopted father" he had said in the nightmare just now, Qu Yunchu nodded and responded softly, pretending to be nonchalant, and said nothing more.

After calling Jizhen to bring dinner, Lu Wenqian dismissed the servants, motioned for her to take a seat, and personally served her with rice and vegetables.

Although Qu Yunchu was a little surprised, he was too lazy to be pretentious with him and obediently ate the dishes he put in his bowl.

After eating some in a gulp, seeing that he was still extremely affectionate, Qu Yunchu couldn't help but raise his eyes and asked: "Second Master, what do you want to say to me?"

Looking at her eyes full of resistance, Lu Wenqian slowly put down the chopsticks in his hand and replied hesitantly:

"Scheming money from the imperial court is a fool's errand. You know Zhang Jinnian's identity and yet today you are asking for a million taels of silver from him, and you are asking for it on behalf of Xuandu Temple. Are you not afraid of causing trouble for that Taoist temple?"

"Not afraid."

Qu Yunchu smiled and shook his head.

Nowadays, there is nothing more dangerous than Master Niubi entering the capital. If he angers the emperor, Xuandu Temple will also suffer.

Listening to these words, Lu Wenqian became more and more curious about her.

He pondered and looked at her for a long time, and then asked: "Lu Shen, why do you want to look at an unknown Xuandu like this?"

"This second master probably doesn't know something."

Qu Yunchu said in a faint tone: "Now that Xuanmen is prosperous again, as a woman of faith, I can do what I can to help Xuanmen prosper. That is a good deed that accumulates merit. Why wouldn't I do it."

With this million silver money, Changqing can rebuild Xuandu Temple, which has been dilapidated for hundreds of years. In the future, she will return to Jiuyun Mountain to retire, and she will no longer have to worry about the livelihood of the temple.

Anyway, there is no hope for Hongzhen to wait until he becomes an immortal.

Lu Wenqian didn't feel bad about the money, and Zhang Jinnian had been doing everything in the palace these years and had accumulated a lot of furniture, so naturally he wouldn't be stingy with the money.

Spending some money to build a Taoist temple can cater to the Sacred Heart.

But what he cared about was still the matter of erecting the longevity tablet.

After leading the conversation to this point, he suddenly laughed coldly and started to get to the point:
"Since you moved into Fengyage, you have often talked about Xuandu Temple and like to go there. Everyone has his own ambitions, which is understandable. But you forced Zhang Jinnian to erect some immortal tablet for atonement and repentance. This is really disturbing. I can’t figure it out, could it be that I am also accumulating what you call merit?”

"You could say the same."

Qu Yunchu guessed that the knot in his heart was here.

This crazy guy was willing to give so much money to the casino, so he wouldn't feel sorry for Zhang Jinnian's one million taels of silver.

"Speaking of this matter, I would like to ask Mr. Lu, why do you protect Director Zhang so much?"

Qu Yunchu stared at him closely and asked with interest.

Lu Wenqian smiled but said: "Everyone with a discerning eye can see this. I cannot be where I am today without his support. Naturally, I protect him for myself."

"is it?"

If he hadn't considered it carefully, Qu Yunchu would have believed his deceptive words.

But his feelings for Zhang Jinnian were obviously not as simple as a simple ally.

This kind of intimacy is more like the sustenance between relatives, which she has never seen in the Lu Mansion.

Facing her questioning eyes, Lu Wenqian's expression suddenly looked a little unnatural.

"Why, Mrs. Lu Shen, are you beginning to doubt me now? I am just the son of a merchant, and apart from this kind of entanglement of interests, what else can I have with a powerful eunuch?"

Thinking of her interaction with Liu Quan, Lu Wenqian deliberately added: "It is the nature of businessmen to only seek profit, and they will always use any means to cling to the powerful. Even calling him a foster father is just a temporary solution."

"I see."

Qu Yunchu looked at him with a smile and nodded slowly.Although there is still suspicion in my heart, this madman is too deep-minded, and it is difficult to predict his good or bad luck just from his face.

He didn't want to say more, and he didn't need to ask more.

"Second Master has explained so much, and I finally understand the reason why Second Master does not want Zhang Jinnian to set up the immortal tablet for atonement and repentance, but I want to say that this is the only way to do this."

Qu Yunchu replied firmly.

As the saying goes, if you go out and mess around, you will always have to pay back.

Although the evil spirits surrounding Zhang Jinnian were temporarily suppressed for him, they could not completely dissipate.

"Second Master Lu lives an upright life and doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, but after experiencing these things these days, he should still have a sense of awe."

After saying this, Qu Yunchu smiled helplessly.

This crazy ghost king was reincarnated and did not believe in karma in this world.

"Even the eunuch Zhang himself admitted that he had been ashamed of others. The karma and retribution in the world will not be completely settled just because a person dies and the light goes out. The consequences of his actions will always be dealt with in another way. Asking people to repay.”

These words made Lu Wenqian completely lost in thought.

Qu Yunchu also stood up slowly and re-entered the inner room. His mind was still thinking about the "adopted father" he had called out during the nightmare, and he could not fall asleep for a long time.

I don't know how long it took, but she turned over and turned her head to look inadvertently, and found that the sky was already bright outside the willow window.

She was about to close her eyes and sleep for a few more hours when she suddenly heard the heavy sound of horse hooves outside, shaking the whole house like the earth was shaking.

"What happened again?"

Qu Yunchu felt a chill in his heart, lost all sleep, and hurriedly got up and went out.

When they arrived at the hall, they saw Ji Zhen pushing Lu Wenqian's wheelchair and about to go out, so she followed him out of the west courtyard.

The post house was already buzzing with people, and many guards in plainclothes hurried over. The leading guard bowed respectfully and said: "Second Master Lu, Madam Lu, there has been a sudden change in the city. , the eunuch has an order for the two of you to stay in Xiyuan for a good rest, and specifically ordered me to come over to protect the safety of the second master and the young lady."

"Where are Zhang Jinnian and others?"

Lu Wenqian asked with a slight frown on his sword eyebrows.

The chief guard replied solemnly: "The chief eunuch has personally led the people out of the post house."

Hearing this, Lu Wenqian looked panicked and signaled Ji Zhen to continue pushing the wheelchair out.

"Second Master Lu."

The captain of the guard quickly stopped him.

"roll."

Lu Wenqian scolded angrily and rushed out.

Qu Yunchu led Keyan and immediately followed him.

When I arrived outside the post house, I saw soldiers standing everywhere, and they were completely surrounded.

Looking around, he didn't see Zhang Jinnian coming out, but he saw Lu Yanchao and Liu Quan.

"Hey, second uncle, second aunt, how come you suddenly came to Miancheng after everything went well? My nephew is very worried."

Lu Yanchao changed his usual respectful attitude, and clasped his fists to the two of them in a strange salute: "It's not peaceful in Miancheng right now. Second uncle and second aunt should go back with my nephew as soon as possible."

"Not quite?"

Lu Wenqian's eyebrows darkened: "Yan Chao, how do you say this?" (End of Chapter)
