Chapter 446 Steamed Bread
The Marquis of Jin Lin, Shizi, sent someone from Manlingtai Temple to find Ji Qingning. How could the old lady not know? I don’t know where Ji Qingning went. It was because she was worried that she would be caught, but fortunately she was smart and avoided.
Li didn't know what happened yet, so he wanted to ask a few questions, but the old lady was tired, so Mother Zhou quickly helped her into the house to rest.
Ji Qingning helped Li back to the yard where he lived.
Halfway through the road, no one was around. Li asked Ji Qingning, "What the hell is going on?"
Li knew that it was not easy for Ji Qingning to recover her daughter. After all, she had been delayed by various things over the years. Since Ji Qingning and the others left the house, she was worried, but as expected, she failed.
Ji Qingning told Li that the old lady said that the wife of Jin Linhou was a beauty. Li was surprised, "Is the old lady really scolding?"
Ji Qingning nodded, "I scolded him in person."
Li couldn't believe it.
From Li's shock, it can be seen that the old lady is indeed very abnormal.
The old lady is usually kind to the servants in the mansion. How could she be stingy to the wife of Jin Linhou whom she didn't know?
Ji Qingning couldn't figure it out, and Li was the same.
Let’s talk about Wen Xuan. After climbing over the wall, a secret guard flashed to him and reported, “Master, I’ve discovered something unusual today.”
Wenxian said, "What's the matter?"
The secret guard replied, "General Chen Yao sent us to secretly protect Young Master Ji, and his subordinates followed him to Lingtai Temple. He saw with his own eyes that the old lady of the Ji family was not kind to the wife of the Marquis of Jinlin. Afterwards, he was afraid that Mrs. Ji would take revenge, so his subordinates stayed to protect her."
"The prince of Jin Linhou was going to arrest Mrs. Ji and apologize, but was sent away by Mrs. Jin Linhou."
"After the prince of Jin Lin left, the wife of Jin Lin Lin entered the house. She asked Mrs. Ji if she knew where the third young master of the General's Mansion in the previous dynasty was going. Mrs. Ji said she didn't know, and she knelt down directly for Mrs. Ji..."
Wenxian frowned.
He said why the wife of Marquis of Jin Lin was so strange. She asked her mother to invite her to come to the mansion to drink tea and enjoy flowers, but she posted a post, saying that she would not come.
He guessed that it was the Marquis of Jin Lin who refused, but he didn't know that the wife of Jin Lin was going to the Duke Yu's mansion. It turned out that what she wanted to enter was not the Duke Yu's mansion, but the Mansion of the General of the State in the previous dynasty.
After the previous dynasty was overturned, the emperor rewarded the former dynasty General's Mansion to Duke Yu. Because the mansion was built very grandly and impeccably, Duke Yu did not like to demolish and build it. Therefore, the current Duke Yu's Mansion basically maintained the appearance of the former dynasty General's Mansion, and only a few small courtyards made minor adjustments.
The wife of Marquis of Jin Lin wanted to revisit the old place and remember the old people. Marquis of Jin Lin knew her thoughts and stopped her.
"The Third Young Master of the General's Mansion?" Wen Xuan said.
"Mrs. Ji knows his whereabouts?"
The secret guard said, "Although my subordinates are in the dark, they can see clearly. Mrs. Ji should know that she also asked Mrs. Jin Lin what happened to Mrs. Li San."
However, Mrs. Jin Lin did not say that she had been looking for Master Li San for more than ten years. She knew that she should have died long ago, but she did not see Master Li San. She could not die, she had to live.
Mrs. Jin Lin knelt on the ground, but Mrs. Ji ignored her and left the Zen room directly.
The secret guards were sure that the old lady would be fine. After watching for a while, Mrs. Jin Lin knelt on the ground and cried silently for a long time.
Even though the secret guard was a little moved, she always felt that this woman with honorable status had suffered a lot of grievances, but no one could tell her that she was very tired but could not be relieved.
After reporting, the secret guard was about to step down. When he remembered something, he felt it was necessary to tell his master. He said, "Young Master Ji was wearing women's clothing and was attracted by the prince of Jin Linhou. He sent a servant to inquire about her and wanted to marry her."
Master, your third young lady is being missed.
Don't take it seriously.
The black line on Wenxian's forehead fell down.
The lady of Jin Linhou, a lady from Kyoto, looked down on him. Ji Qingning wore women's clothes and caught his eye. He was really capable.
Wen Xuan sat down and drank half a cup of tea, then went back to Hongxinglou for lunch.
At that time, the young man had just served the dishes. When the Prince of Dongping saw him go there for so long, he said, "I thought you wouldn't come back for dinner."
"Did you see my elder brother in women's clothing?"
"Um."
"How is it, it looks good?" Tang Jing asked.
"Make it."
"Just be stubborn. My elder brother can surpass most of the ladies in Kyoto in women's clothing," said the prince of Dongping.
After a pause, the prince of Dongping said, "Does my elder brother want to make most of the men in Kyoto feel ashamed of the majority of the ladies who are now ashamed of the majority of the ladies?"
Is it really good if men and women don’t give a way to live?
There were seven dishes and one soup on the table, and a plate of big steamed buns.
The steamed buns in Hongxinglou are unique in Kyoto. They are made with fragrant and softness, and are their favorites.
Tang Jing took one and handed it to Wen Xuan. Wen Xuan could no longer look at the steamed buns. Ji Qingning couldn't take it away in his mind. He coughed lightly, "I won't eat it."
Tang Jing put the steamed buns in his mouth, "Don't you like eating steamed buns from Hongxinglou? Why didn't you suddenly stop eating them?"
The reason is naturally impossible to say, he is afraid of being poisoned to death by Ji Qingning.
Wen Xuan didn't eat it, nor did they give him a reason, nor did they ask questions. It was so good that a few people gathered together and talked and laughed.
Although I also had a meal together in the academy and had an extra Ji Qingning, the academy did not allow alcohol, which was less arbitrary.
Wenxuan ate lunch with the Prince of Dongping and the others, and he went to Ji Qingning's house to have supper.
It was a coincidence that there were steamed buns for dinner.
The maid brought the steamed buns to the table without knowing it.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly changed.
Wenxian's mouth twitched.
Ji Qingning wanted to die.
She grabbed the steamed bun and bit it viciously, but ended up choking herself. Wen Xuan quickly poured her a tea ceremony, "Do you want to choke yourself to death with the steamed bun?"
Ji Qingning finally swallowed it and glared at Wen Xuan and said, "It's all your fault!"
Winhyun, “….”
How can he blame him?
It's not the steamed buns he asked him to stuff them.
Ji Qingning was very popular. If he hadn't suddenly broke in, would she be so embarrassed?!
Ji Qingning glared at Wen Xuan and said, "Can you knock on the window first when you enter my room in the future?"
Wen Xuan looked at Ji Qingning and said, "You have dug up my room with secret passages. I have to knock on the window when I enter your room. Don't you think this requirement is too much?"
"It's not the secret passage I want to dig," said Ji Qingning.
She looked at the little maid and said strangely, "Why don't you dig the secret passage into the pharmacy?"
The little maid also regretted it very much. She said, "I want to dig into the pharmacy. Chen Yao said that the secret passage is very dysfunctional and is not good for medicinal materials. It is the most suitable to dig into Master Wen San's room, so I will listen to him."
It turned out to be arranged by Chen Yao.
This is something Wenhyun didn't expect.
He thought Chen Yao could only do things as he followed his instructions.
