Reborn Concubine Queen

Chapter 48 In Fahua Temple
The news of Shi Yiqing's invitation to go to Fahua Temple spread in the mansion within a long time. By the time Mammy Xu knew about it, Jianliu, Yinxiu and Mo Xian in the house were already busy giving her tidy up.

Mother Xu hurried to Shi Yiqing's side and said, "Miss, my miss, what are you doing? We finally returned to Shi's house, why are you still going out?"

Shi Yiqing saw Mammy Xu was sweating anxiously, wiped her forehead with a handkerchief with a smile, and said, "My mother, my good mother, I have my own arrangements and orders, so you don't want to Don't worry about me anymore, okay?"

"Miss, but once you leave like this, what will Aunt Xiao do?"

Shi Yiqing put away the handkerchief, continued to transcribe the scriptures with a pen, and said, "I have already asked my grandmother, I think no one in the mansion would dare to provoke my mother under my grandmother's nose."

She paused, looked at Mammy Xu and said slowly: "Mammy, you should pack up quickly, and we can leave after we bid farewell to grandma, father and mother tomorrow morning."

Madam Xu was sweating from anxiety, but seeing Shi Yiqing's indifferent face, she wanted to offend, but she prevented people from coming and going in the house, so she couldn't confront her face to face, seeing that she had become a permanent residence, she could only worry herself The one who got angry left the house, walked around the corridor, and went to his room.

In the early morning of the second day, Shi Yiqing went to Chunhui Hall to bid farewell to the old lady according to the rules, and was held by the tearful old lady, and said: "Girl, although You'er's matter has nothing to do with you, It is very unfair for you to go out this trip, but it is good to go out for two days to cultivate your heart and mind. Don't worry, I will let you come back in a few days, and I will definitely not let you suffer any more. "

Shi Yiqing responded with a smile, left the Chunhui Hall, and went to the Tangli Courtyard, waited for Shi Jingran to get dressed, and bowed to him: "Father, mother, a daughter can't serve under the elders' knees all the time, and I hope my father , Mother can cherish it, don't take it for granted."

Shi Jingran looked at Shi Yiqing's honey-colored long dress, which grew more and more protruding, and sighed in his heart, "Qing'er, go early and come back early, don't let your grandmother miss you."

The third wife, Mrs. Yang, held Shi Yiqing's hand in the posture of a loving mother and babbled a lot, then wiped her tears with a handkerchief, dawdlingly watching the sky outside, as if it had passed While eating breakfast, Shi Jingran let Shi Yiqing leave through the corner gate and left the mansion under Shi Jingran's impatient expression.

There was already a carriage waiting at the door, and Nanny Xu and Mo Xian helped Shi Yiqing get into the carriage, cut Liu and repaired it in the rear one, and took care of the packages. The group of people walked slowly to Fahua Temple outside the city went.

Madam Xu was hindered by the fact that Mo Xian was rewarded by the old lady, so she didn't have a heart-to-heart relationship, so she carried the words with a complicated expression, and followed the horse team to Fahua Temple with an erratic expression.

Fahua Temple is the largest temple in the capital. It was originally a temple for monks, but because too many female nuns have been sent to the capital recently, and the temples established are not so safe, some nuns tried their best to build it next to Fahua Temple. An Temple, thinking about asking Fahua Temple to help guard the gate.

During an emperor's parade, he inadvertently broke into a nunnery, frightened the nuns and ran away, and attracted the eminent monks of Fahua Temple to beat people. This incident was spread, and it was regarded as the emperor's love For rhymes.If it were a different emperor, it would be possible to uproot the Fahua Temple, but the current emperor has a cheerful temperament, thinking that it is really unsafe for nuns outside the city, so he made the decision to expand the Fahua Temple, together with those temple nuns. Nuns, together into the scope of Fahua Temple, became a monk of Fahua Temple.

By the time Shi Yiqing arrived at Fahua Temple, the sun had already set in the west on the horizon, and two teams of welcoming monks had already come to welcome them, and surrounded Shi Yiqing to a single courtyard behind the temple.

Seeing the seriousness on the faces of many monks, Shi Yiqing knew that the old lady should have greeted her. Mrs. Shi is the first-rank wife of the dynasty, and even those members of the royal family want to give her a little bit of respect How could the host of Fahua Temple, who watched people order dishes, not look at Shi Yiqing highly?
Seeing the freshness and elegance of the newly opened courtyard, Madam Xu nodded and said with satisfaction, "It's really nice here." After hearing this, Jianliu and Yinxiu , is also a look of approval, looking around full of joy.

After all, Mo Xian had served the old lady by her side for many years, and had seen many scenes before, carrying Shi Yiqing's things into the house with a normal face, arranged Shi Yiqing's things, and removed the things from Fahua Temple.

Seeing Mo Xian go in to serve her, Mother Xu hurriedly moved to Shi Yiqing's side and said, "My lady, since you've come here now, you should be able to tell me why you insisted on following Shi Yiqing. Are you out of the house?"

Shi Yiqing glanced at Nanny Xu in surprise, and smiled slightly: "Why does Nanny think that I have a purpose? Could it be that in your eyes, I am actually a lady who plays tricks?"

"My dear lady, don't you hide things from me? I don't understand your temperament yet. If it is not necessary, how can you speak so deadly. Tell me, what is it for?"

A hint of satisfaction flashed across Shi Yiqing's smiling eyes: "Mother trusts me so unconditionally, which makes Qing'er ecstatic. Forget it, anyway, this matter is related to you, so why not tell you?"

She cautiously looked at the three maids who were waiting inside, and said softly: "I heard the news that it is a great victory in the battle ahead. If there is no accident, my elder brother who has never said a word will be back. You Say, should I be prepared?"

Mother Xu exclaimed in a low voice in surprise: "You mean... the young master is coming back? Indeed, then you should really come out of the Shi family. The third lady hates you to the bone now, and the third lady is gnashing her teeth to want For your life, if the young master comes back at this time, I'm afraid that even the old lady will not be by your side. It's good to come out now, as long as you can be quiet for a day. "

Shi Yiqing looked at Madam Xu with a worried face, lowered her eyes and smiled and said, "Mama, I didn't come to Fahua Temple because I wanted to avoid him, I came here to stop him. You are right, If the young master returns to the capital at this time, it will be even more difficult for you and me to survive if it is the arm of the third lady. Now that we have offended the third lady and the third lady, then we will blindly avoid them now, so they will not let go over yours."

She paused, and when she raised her eyes again, her eyes were cold and cold: "So, what I do is, it's better to take the initiative to attack first, so that they can't be defeated, and it's best if they don't hinder me. Sister, you let Zhong Uncle, come to me, remember, keep it secret, even if it's Yinxiu and Jianliu, don't tell them."

"Miss, can't trust them?"

"It's not that I can't believe it, but I think the less people know about this kind of thing, the better." Shi Yiqing turned complicated eyes to look at the three people who were busy in the room, and said slowly, "Sometimes, some things, some people still don't want to know good."

It was getting late, and a little nun came in with food that was not oily at all. Yinxiu found Shi Yiqing who was standing under the plane tree, and said with a smile: "Miss, everything is packed in the house, and the food is ready." Here you go, it's time to eat."

Shi Yiqing smiled, led Nanny Xu into the room, tidied up briefly, then sat in front of the table, looked at Jianliu and the others who stood by and waited, and hurriedly said: "We are outside, are we not?" In the mansion, those who don't need so many etiquette, please sit down, let's eat together, we can have more fun."

When Mother Xu heard this and saw how the three of them were being imprisoned, she knew that Shi Yiqing was intending to sell them off, so she took Mo Xian by her hand and sat down first, and said, "Although there are still masters and servants here. But we are out of the Shi family, so it doesn't matter if you don't want these vain gifts, let's not disappoint the young lady's kindness, let's sit down and eat together in the future."

Jianliu and Yinxiu heard that Nanny Xu also agreed, so they sat on the side chair tremblingly, not daring to sit still, so they could only lean on the side, feeling very uncomfortable.

Shi Yiqing saw them sitting upright, pretending not to notice, picked up the food and started eating.Although they are all vegetarian, and I have never seen anything oily, but compared to the food in Jingxin Temple, it is really good, so she and Madam Xu ate deliciously, at least with Mo Xian who has never eaten such food. Wait for others to compare.

Mo Xian is the son of the mansion, his parents are very happy in front of the old lady, he is regarded as the half master of the mansion, and he has never suffered anything since he was a child, let alone faced with such unpalatable meals.She frowned slightly, and looked at Shi Yiqing secretly, and was surprised to find that her food was delicious, while Yin Xiu and Jianliu who were sitting across from her also looked at Shi Yiqing in surprise, and became more and more suspicious in her heart.

Holding the bowl in his hands, Shi Yiqing sighed leisurely, and said slowly, "Mo Xian, do you think this food is too unpalatable, too bland and tasteless?"

Straightforwardly speaking what was in her heart, Mo Xian smiled with shame on her face, and admitted, "Miss, why don't you let me cook for you, let me get you something delicious."

"Buddhist holy land, not to mention fish and meat, but you can't even see a little bit of oil, that's disrespectful to Buddha." Shi Yiqing said indifferently, "Though I think you are serving others, you are all from rich families They don’t have to worry about food and clothing. Compared with those women from small families, they are more pampered. I have been wandering outside since I was a child, let alone this kind of vegetarian food. If I am very hungry, even the weeds on the roadside It’s for food, so what are these things?”

Nanny Xu who was sitting at the bottom said with a smile, "Hurry up, if you don't hurry up, I'm afraid the miss will eat up all these dishes."

Mo Xian and the others had no choice but to bite the bullet and eat more white rice, passed the meal without taste, swallowed the dates to make their stomachs full, and talked about some jokes, and the atmosphere gradually improved.Presumably they came out of the Shi family, without the restraint of etiquette and rules, the girls gradually became more cheerful, chattering non-stop, and Mother Xu just stood aside with a smile and did not step forward to stop , let them mess around.

At night, Wan Lai became silent, and the silvery moonlight poured on the ground from the window sills. Shi Yiqing tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep, so he simply sat up, put on his clothes and walked outside. Hearing the sobbing sound of Yuxiao, it was pleasant to hear, and her mind was turned around for a while, and she subconsciously followed the sound out of the courtyard door and searched for it.
