Chapter 393 Taifei Temple

"Taifei Temple?" Li Huan murmured to the two, and dragged the boy towards the restaurant.

As soon as they left, Yin Qi and Qin Luoyan also stood up. They looked at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes.Li Huan still led the servant on horseback, while Yin Qi and Qin Luoyan rode in a carriage.

On the carriage, Qin Luoyan's face was very heavy, and he couldn't help asking Yin Qi, "Is the Taifei Temple in the barbarian country a temple or a residence?"

Yin Qi was a little surprised that she could ask such a question, but after thinking about it carefully, he was relieved. Also, if it was really just a temple, no official sent people to take people there.

"Strictly speaking, the Taifei Temple in the Barbarian Kingdom is not a temple, but a cage for the concubine to be imprisoned. It was built when the emperor of the Barbarian Kingdom ascended the throne to eradicate dissidents. For the concubines of the emperor, the emperor of the barbarian country did not kill them, but locked them up, which is already the biggest concession, and it was nothing more than fearing that the murder would cause dissatisfaction among the ministers in the court." Yin Qi explained.

Qin Luoyan nodded slightly, "According to what you mean, the people living in the Taifei Temple are only women. It stands to reason that they don't have much real power. The official sent people to the Taifei Temple What does Li mean?"

Yin Qi was silent for a while, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he said slowly: "Although those women have no real power, they are the women of the late emperor. If I guess correctly, there must be some of those women. A person who was favored by the late emperor and who knew the late emperor's heirs very well."

Qin Luoyan was a little speechless, but she knew Yin Qi's strength, and if he said it, it would probably be correct. She couldn't help but think of the secret about the royal family of the barbarian country. It is said that the emperor of the barbarian country failed to track down the mutiny The prince has been to the border of Nanyue Kingdom. If the Taifei Temple is involved now, maybe it has something to do with that secret?
For some reason, although Yin Qi answered Qin Luoyan's question very directly, Qin Luoyan always felt that there was something strange. A woman's intuition was very strange, it came suddenly, but it was surprisingly accurate, so next she He stopped talking until the carriage stopped on the outskirts of the capital after driving for an hour.

After a lot of tossing, it was completely dark.There are few people in this wilderness, except for a slightly dilapidated Zhuangzi in front of you, there are no other buildings.

Although Li Huan was impatient, he was not stupid, and knew not to rush in rashly, so he walked around to Zhuangzi's back door.She led the boy and crept in from the courtyard wall behind Zhuangzi.

After all, this is just another courtyard where some women are detained. There have been only four or five guards on duty for so many years, and there has never been anything wrong, so the guards in Zhuangzi are not strict, so it seems that it is easy for the two of them to slip in. .

Qin Luoyan followed Yin Qi out of the carriage, and was about to use some method to enter the other courtyard, when he saw Yin Qi had already stepped forward and knocked on the courtyard door.

"You are..." Before Qin Luoyan could ask clearly, the courtyard door was pulled open, and a yawning guard stuck out his head.

"What are you doing?" The guard gave the two of them a blank look.

Yin Qi bowed his hands and took out Lin Qingfeng's token, saying: "We are from Spring City, and we came to the capital to do some business under the order of the city lord, but it's dark and it's inconvenient to travel. My sister has a cold again, and you know the geographical environment of the capital, which can make people sick at night. Now the gates of the capital are closed, and we can't enter the city, so I want to bother you here for the night , I hope this big brother can do it conveniently."

Qin Luoyan was speechless for a while, although Yin Qi's explanation seemed to be seamless, but he could get in just like that, isn't it a bit too childish?The guards here shouldn't be so careless, right?
However, contrary to Qin Luoyan's expectations, the guard's eyes lit up, and he glanced behind the two of them, only to see a coachman following them, and there seemed to be no one else, and a loose expression appeared on his face .

Yin Qi seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and took out a bank note from his pocket and handed it over, "Don't worry, big brother, we will definitely not stay here, besides, even if you don't believe me, you have to trust the token of City Lord Lin No, they are all people who work for the housekeeper, and there are times when it is inconvenient, and it is convenient for others to be convenient for oneself."

The guard who was already hesitant, after listening to Yin Qi's persuasion, finally couldn't resist the temptation of the bank note, took the bank note, opened the courtyard gate and let the person in.

After entering the courtyard gate, the guard took the three of them to the side courtyard, seeming to avoid the sensitive backyard along the way. After bringing the three of them to the wing room, the guard said: "You can live in the house, but Remember, don't go out of this courtyard. As for food, I will bring it to you later. Don't wander around at night, there are quite a few crazy women in this village, you girl has delicate skin and tender meat, If you get hurt, don't blame me for not reminding you."

"Don't worry, big brother, we still understand these rules when we are away from home." Yin Qi cupped his hands and asked the coachman to send the guard out.

As soon as the guard left, Qin Luoyan couldn't help asking the question that was simmering in his heart, "How did you know that the guard would let us spend the night?"

Yin Qi smiled, his eyes were faintly bright, "This Zhuangzi has existed for more than ten years, do you see any traces of repairs?"

Qin Luoyan shook his head.

Yin Qi said again: "Without any repairs, it means that this place is not valued. How much oil and water can there be in a place that is not valued? Then these few guards here have got the worst job. There are no other buildings on this road. This Zhuangzi has no other advantage, that is, there are enough houses, so I think those guards must have made a lot of decisions on it. Once someone rents a room, as long as the money is enough, they can rent a few rooms. It must be a common thing to go out of the house, and it is definitely not easy to support a family with the response of the guards."

After what he said, Qin Luoyan felt a sense of enlightenment. No wonder the guards took them to this side courtyard with ease. He was already familiar with this kind of thing.

"Besides, when the guard opened the door earlier, he yawned several times in a row. His face was yellow and thin, his eyes were dull, and his body still smelled of tobacco. It should be the result of long-term smoking of opium. There is no money for smoking opium. Yes, so as long as the money is enough, he will definitely be tempted." Yin Qi explained again.
