010 Incense 1

After returning from the Sun Mansion that day, Ms. Yang was really at peace. Every day when Zhang Hua went to say hello, Ms. Yang seemed to be a different person, caring for her and always treating her to meals with affection. He often took out pieces of cloth to buy her new clothes.

Shen Lanxi kept her promise and sent someone to deliver a copy of the manuscript every half month. Zhang Hua had nothing to do, and occasionally read it, or she and Xiao Huan worked together in the house to make a happy life. Also feel at ease.

In August, news came secretly from Dongmei in Yang's house that Yang secretly gave Lai's mother ten gold bars. Lai's mother often left the house to do business, and sometimes she was not in the house for ten days and a half.

Zhang Hua frowned and paced back and forth in the room. After a while, she asked in a deep voice: "Is there any way to find out where Lai's mother has been these days and who she has met?" Xiaohuan thought about it carefully, and suddenly His eyes lit up and he said happily: "Shuangxi, who is in charge of carriages and horses in the outer courtyard, is also from my hometown. He is honest and honest, and he usually takes good care of others. I will try my best to ask him about it."

"Try to trick him and don't arouse suspicion." Zhang Hua warned.

Xiaohuan nodded, hesitated, and said uneasily: "Miss, Madam has been very fond of you during this period, and she seems to have changed her past. If we investigate secretly like this, Madam will be very sad if she knows about it, and it will also affect her. The mother-daughter relationship between you and your wife."

Zhang Hua raised her head and looked at the sapphire blue Chengchen, and sighed: "You must not have the intention of harming others, and you must have the intention of guarding against others. I have always been worried about Mrs. Yang. Since she is determined to prevent me from entering the palace, she will never give up halfway. What she is doing now is more like hiding from others and making me take it lightly. If something really happens to me one day, others will not suspect her."

Xiaohuan thought for a while, and felt deeply that she had read a lot of books. She could even think of such a profound question. If it were her, she would have been sold and helped count the money. Thinking about it like this, it seems The eyes towards Zhang Hua unconsciously showed a little more respect and admiration.

A few days later, Xiaohuan found out from Shuangxi that Lai’s mother had secretly visited Qing County not long ago.

Zhang Hua was sitting on the large pit near the window, holding her chin with one hand and unconsciously drawing circles on the black lacquered pit table with the other hand. The golden sunlight fell slantingly on the pit through the ashes of the screen window, revealing a half-beautiful face. Hidden in the light, his expression is dim and unclear.

"Does Mama Lai have any relatives in Qing County?" Zhang Hua asked with a frown.

"It seems not." Xiao Huan shook her head uncertainly and said in confusion, "That place in Qing County is often haunted by bandits. It's very uneasy. I don't know what she was doing there."

Zhang Hua was silent for a moment. She took out a book and flipped through a few pages. However, she felt upset and angry, so she put it down, lightly clasping the book with her fingers, and made a dull sound "Du Du Du Du". Suddenly she remembered something and asked: "A few days ago, Mrs. Yang said she was going to the temple to offer incense. Is there a definite date set?"

Xiaohuan thought for a while and said: "I heard from Sister Dongmei that it will be scheduled in three days."

"Which temple to go to?"

"Puji Temple." Xiaohuan said happily, "Madam said that the Bodhisattva there is the most efficacious. She wants to take the young lady to worship her and bless her to become the crown princess smoothly."

The corner of Zhang Hua's mouth curved in a sarcastic arc. Could it be that she is addicted to pretending to be a loving mother? She picked up the colorful lotus tea cup and took a sip. Suddenly her heart moved and she asked, "Did Mr. Yang also go to Puji Temple to offer incense in the past?" "

"In the past, my wife often went to Ciqing Temple to offer incense, but this is the first time I have to go to Puji Temple." Xiaohuan picked up the white silk round fan on the pit and fanned it for her.

Zhang Hua looked solemn. Since she had been going to Ciqing Temple, why did she suddenly change to Puji Temple? Besides, Ciqing Temple is located in Dongcheng, about two hours away, while Puji Temple is located in Mangshan, a very long distance away.

It takes a day to go there.
