Confused country poison concubine

Chapter 262: Wanted Autumn (4)
What's more, there is no better teacher than interest, so they really made rapid progress as she expected.

"If anything is done to the extreme, it will become the most prominent point in a person." Ning Qiu said thoughtfully.

Xiao Qi thought for a while, and couldn't help but ask: "But Fourth Young Master, even if they have learned the ultimate in cockfighting, stealing, and even fighting crickets, so what, can they challenge the other two departments of the Supervisor of Rituals with these? ?”

Qiu Yebai said lightly: "Xiao Qi, do you know what kind of existence is the most essential kind of supervisor of ceremonies?"

Xiao Qi hesitated for a while: "Spy."

Moreover, he is a very annoying spy, but he is not dare to be provoked. He monitors the government and the public from every angle.

Qiu Yebai smiled, and nodded her heart: "That's right, an excellent spy needs to face people of high and low rank. It's not just enough martial arts, but a slick heart and flexibility." Changeable, not ashamed means."

Xiao Qi was a little at a loss, but felt that what his fourth young master said made sense.

Qiu Yebai looked at his confused face, smiled lightly and flicked his forehead with his fingertips: "This is not what you should think about, just tell the people in Qinglongtang and Baihutang not to be fools, it's theirs Disciple, because they have never been the masters of dudes, they just follow my order to perform a task, and no one in the world will know about it."

She paused and continued: "As for the tasks I asked them to perform, of course I have my reasons. You will understand later that General Lu is not a good guy. The last locust disaster in the clouds was allocated by him and that The magistrate of Yunzhong swallowed most of it. He is just such a son. Since his son loves his father's concubine to death, it is not the first time that the two of them sleep on the same bed. By the way, let’s try to see if the dudes have the ability to sneak into the heavily guarded military officer’s mansion to do the ‘stealing’ thing.”

Xiao Qi understood this, and nodded, presumably the hearts of Qinglongtang and Baihutang will be relaxed.

He hesitated for a while, and then continued: "They have been tossing about for three days at the dog fighting meeting, and all the good dogs in Yunzhong County have been stolen by them, which has alarmed Yun. Zhongzhifu, if I check it out at that time, I'm afraid it will be revealed."

"If you reveal your secrets, you will reveal your secrets. That is also to teach them a lesson. If you are arrogant and act carelessly, there will be no good results, and you may even lose your life." Qiu Yebai seemed not worried at all, and put the letter in his hand. Pass it to Xiaoqi.

"Have someone send it out."

Xiao Qi knew that this was Qiu Yebai and would send news to the other side of the capital every ten days to determine the current situation in the capital.

After all, she had promised Zheng Jun, the supervisor of ceremonies, to solve the case within three months, and now it was about to expire. Not only did she get the account book and witnesses, but she also slipped out of the Mei family's net with the people who watched the wind. Those bigwigs in the capital must have further arrangements, so she must keep the news open.

After Xiao Qi received the letter, she immediately went out.

"Fourth Young Master, the other end of Tianshu wrote back recently, saying how is the situation in the capital?" Ning Qiu naturally knew that Qiu Yebai would soon go back before the deadline for solving the case, otherwise she would be accused and imprisoned, and the Department of Watching the Wind would also be imprisoned. Disbandment, then the four young masters' hard work these days will be in vain.

Qiu Yebai mused and said: "Tianshu said that the weather is still calm, and there is no special change, except that the national teacher recently presided over a ceremony to pray for rain."

Sure enough, on the second day of the ceremony, dark clouds covered and nectar fell from the sky, alleviating the heat and drought that had lasted for many days in the capital since autumn, and the prestige of the National Teacher and the Palace of Mantras once again greatly improved.

Ning Qiu naturally knew that the national teacher was Yuan Ze, and while laying it out on the table for Qiu Yebai, he said: "I think Yuan Ze is not the kind of duplicitous person, if the Fourth Young Master meets him in the capital, there is nothing he can do about it." To solve the matter, you might as well go to the national teacher, and they may not be able to help you."

She knew that she would not be able to follow Qiu Yebai to the capital for the time being, and the Fourth Young Master would also leave now. Although she felt sad, she could only do her best to plan for Qiu Yebai.

Qiu Yebai nodded, picked up a glutinous rice dumpling and put it into Ning Qiu's bowl, comforting the gloomy Ning Qiu with a warm voice: "It's okay, if you really miss Qiu'er, it's not impossible to go to the capital to play."

Anyway, after she left, the Cangjian Pavilion had to act in a low-key manner and go into the dark so as not to be involved in what she would do next. The disciples also entered the dark activity period, and there were not too many things to do.

Ning Qiu opened his eyes with joy when he heard the words: "Is it really possible?"

Qiu Yebai smiled and nodded: "Naturally."

Capital
In the elegant inner hall of Qiufeng Pavilion, a middle-aged beautiful woman with indigo embroidered Baifu silk beige, dot emerald flowers on her head, and delicate and sharp eyebrows is leaning gracefully on the old bamboo couch beside the green gauze cupboard to enjoy the cool air Resting her mind, the big maid on one side gently fanned her.

A mother Dong came in through the curtain holding an ice bowl: "Lafayette, this is the lotus seed and bird's nest ice bowl you wanted."

The Queen Mother opened her eyes and sighed: "Bring it here, it's so hot and sweltering, the tiger is really annoying this autumn."

Nanny Dong glanced at the wind blowing outside, secretly muttering in her heart, you may have something in your heart that makes you feel that this year is not cooler than previous years.

But she still had a smile on her face. She stepped forward to serve the queen mother and said with a soft smile: "After my lord prayed for rain last time, God has also rained a few times in a row recently. It must be coming soon." It's cool, Lafayette, Master Yizheng said that your stomach can't stand too much cold food, you can't eat too much, and the cold air enters your lungs carefully."

Hearing Mammy Dong mentioned Yizheng, the Queen Mother paused while eating the ice bowl, and snorted lightly: "Lao Luo is a careless person, do you want to help him bully Aijia? Eat, but don't let them eat, they are all human, why have they ever been so delicate."

Momo Dong sighed secretly, and said with a smile: "They are all human beings, but Lafayette, you are the master, and we are slaves. This is a big difference. Your mother respects the world, so naturally your stomach is more delicate."

The Empress Dowager snorted coldly: "Mother's rites to the world? The one who really deserves to be mothers is the master of Kunyi Palace, but now that she wants to be a good wife and mother, eat fast and chant Buddha to pray for her husband, how can she care about her mother's rites?" world."

Nanny Dong hesitated for a moment, then explained in a loud voice: "Lafayette, don't be annoyed, the empress is your niece after all, and she is so afraid now that it is the heart of that... thing in the past."

To put it bluntly, when the current empress was still a concubine, she did something bad with the former empress. Seeing that the previous empress had died, she felt very frightened and did not dare to fight for favor by any means as she did when she was a concubine. .
