Wang Yue still underestimated an old man's persistence in love. Li Qilang had no intention of changing into a carriage all the way to Qinghe, which made Wang Yue admire him very much.
After giving Li Qilang a disguise in advance, Wang Yue and Li Qilang entered the city gate of Qinghe Town. The Qinghe soldiers guarding the city showed no intention of questioning them.
It has been more than two years since I left, and Qinghe is still very prosperous. I think that as long as the Tao family does not fall, this city will continue to prosper.
Sometimes it was such a coincidence that as soon as Wang Yue and Li Qilang entered the city, they saw the Yang family's motorcade. It seemed that the third wife of the Yang family was going out to worship Buddha with her daughter.
Pedestrians on the road were talking a lot, and Wang Yue learned from these people that Sanniang's trip this time was said to be to pray for the new emperor, and also to pray for Niang's early recovery.
Wang Yue listened to the discussion of the people on the street and said with a smile, "It seems that the opportunity has come. Do you want to meet your Sanniang?"
Li Qilang was also a little fascinated, but after thinking about it, he shook his head and said, "With your clairvoyance, I can just take a look from a distance. It's not the right time to disturb them now. Just send me a safe letter."
Wang Yue nodded. He had expected that Li Qilang would make such a choice, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, your letter will definitely be delivered. Do you want to write one to your daughter too?"
Li Qilang hesitated for a moment and then said, "Let's forget it. Shi Yi is still young and I'm afraid she won't be able to keep the secret."
Wang Yue clapped his hands and said, "Come on, you are also the kind of person, only the wife is important, and the children are superfluous."
Li Qilang knew that he couldn't argue with Wang Yue, so he stopped arguing and just urged, "Why don't you go and do things quickly? Go and deliver the letter and come back early?"
Wang Yue rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "I am so angry now. Don't worry, I will go as soon as I get you settled. They have just left the city and the defense is very tight. It is not appropriate for me to go now."
Li Qilang's old face turned red. He was really thinking about Sanniang just now. He didn't think about his own daughter. After being pointed out by Wang Yue, he felt very embarrassed.
After Wang Yue and Li Qilang arrived at Youjian Inn in the city and settled down, they asked people to inquire about the location where Sanniang offered incense and which temple it was.
Li Qilang became a little anxious when he saw that Wang Yue had inquired clearly but still had no intention of leaving. He urged, "Why don't you hurry up and go? Why are you lingering here?"
Wang Yue rolled his eyes, and he was already urging for the second time. Wang Yue said helplessly, "Uncle Li, please think about it. The female family members of the Miao family go to the temple to offer incense, and here is Qinghe."
, do you think the temple will still receive other people today? I won’t even be able to climb the mountain if I go there now.”
After hearing this, Li Qilang looked sad and said depressedly, "Then it's too late for you to go in the evening. They will definitely not spend the night in the temple and come back before dark."
Wang Yue had a black line on his head. He was not a flower-picking thief. How could he go there at night? Seeing that Li Qilang was really anxious, he explained patiently, "The Mao family's carriage is still on the road. When they arrive at the foot of the mountain,
, the people in the temple must have come out to greet me. At that time, if you sneaked in from the back mountain, you still had a chance to see my aunt."
Li Qilang thought about it and felt that what Wang Yue said was reasonable, so he nodded and stopped urging.
Waiting until Wang Yue was ready to leave, Li Qilang told Wang Yue again, "If it is really unavoidable, don't force it anymore. After all, Sanniang is the woman of the back house. There is almost no hope of you meeting her."
possible."
Wang Yue seemed that Li Qilang's head had finally calmed down, and he comforted him, "Uncle Li, don't worry, you showed me the portrait of my aunt. If I can see her alone, I will definitely go and deliver the message."
, If there is no chance, forget it and wait until there is a chance next time. The leader of the Sect is not in Qinghe, and we still have plenty of time."
Li Qilang was not so anxious now. He quickly warned, "That's good. We can't put you in danger because of this matter. I don't care if it's one or two years earlier or one or two years later."
Wang Yue saw that Li Qilang was still looking forward to it but was forced to remain calm. He knew that this Uncle Li had already regarded him as a relative. He quickly said, "Don't worry. If it wasn't for insurance, I would have sent the secret guard there."
Yes, I went there in person this time just to prevent any accidents."
…
After Wang Yue and Li Qilang separated, they hurried on their way, and soon they arrived near the temple where the Tao family offered incense.
On the way up the mountain from the temple, there were indeed heavy soldiers guarding the area. Wang Yue quickly found a forest, tied up his horse, and climbed up the mountain carefully from the back.
But when Wang Yue entered the temple, he found that the temple was exactly as Wang Yue had imagined. There were three posts, one post, five steps, and one sentry in the temple. He had no chance to get close to the place where Cui Sanniang worshiped the Buddha.
Fortunately, Wang Yue had already made preparations. Otherwise, he would not have been able to enter the temple, and his trip would have been in vain.
Wang Yue disguised himself as a young monk and wandered around the temple. Even so, he was questioned several times by the patrolling guards.
Fortunately, Wang Yue was quite witty, and he responded to the guards' questions fluently without revealing any flaws. He just wanted to enter the place where women favored him, but that was impossible.
Wang Yue's internal strength has only just reached a certain level now, which is not enough to activate his internal strength for a long time. He really can't sneak in, so he is ready to retreat, hoping to wait until he has a chance to speak again.
Wang Yue returned along the original route and walked to the garden in the backyard of the temple. When he was about to go down the cliff from where he came, he saw several little girls wandering in the garden.
These little girls, obviously one master and several servants, seemed to be enjoying the scenery in the garden, but they were all quiet and no one spoke.
Seeing Wang Yue coming over, the little girls were not surprised, and all cast curious glances. After all, they, the women of the back house, rarely see outsiders.
Wang Yue was dressed as a young monk. The little maid thought that Wang Yue was here to drive them away, so a little girl hurriedly stepped forward and said softly, "My lady feels a little bored. She will rest here for a while and then leave."
When Wang Yue heard what the little girl said, his heart moved. Could it be that the young master behind him was Li Qilang's daughter?
Wang Yue wanted to take the opportunity to knock out some of the maids and give the letter to the little girl, but firstly he was afraid that Shiyi would be careless and leak his whereabouts, and secondly he was also afraid of causing some trouble for the little girl.
Wang Yue thought for a while and thought that he could write down the appearance of Shi Yi and draw a picture for Li Qilang, so that Li Qilang could talk about it and comfort him.
Wang Yue thought clearly and took a closer look at Min Shiyi. He found that the little girl had bright eyebrows and bright teeth, standing quietly under a few plum trees. Against the backdrop of the blooming plum blossoms, the little girl looked like she had stepped out of a painting.
Same.
Thinking that Li Qilang wanted to marry Yu Shiyi to him, Wang Yue felt a little moved in his heart. This girl was so lovable.
This time, the slap in the face was so fast and so unpredictable that Wang Yue completely forgot that he had just refused to come over.
It was very rude for Wang Yue to look at Nao Shiyi like this, even if he was a young monk. After a while, after the little maid got angry and surrounded Nao Shiyi, Wang Yue saluted.
He turned around and walked out of the yard, quickly going down the mountain.
Although he failed to achieve his goal this time, Wang Yue was not disappointed. He heard news from the Cui family's mother-in-law that made Li Qilang happy.
That is, just now Cao Guang sent someone to send back the news that Cao Shiyi was ready to worship King Xiao Nanchen as his disciple. When King Xiao Nanchen returned in triumph, Cao Sanniang was going to personally send Cao Shiyi to Xizhou.
However, there is also bad news. The mother-in-law said that Jiao Shiyi has already decided to get married and will become the crown princess in the future.
As soon as Wang Yue returned to the inn, Li Qilang asked excitedly, "How was it? Have you promised me a good letter?"
Wang Yue felt a little ashamed. If he had been given a few more years and his skills had become deeper, he would have been able to deliver the letter, but now he was really unable to do so.
Wang Yue looked at Li Qilang, who was looking forward to it, and said with a smile, "Uncle Li, I'm really sorry. The defense around my aunt is so tight that I haven't found a chance. However, it's not that I haven't gained anything.
I met your daughter."
Li Qilang was originally disappointed, but after hearing Wang Yue's words, he raised his head again and said excitedly, "How is my daughter? Is she still unable to speak? What does she look like now?"
Wang Yue breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Li Qilang was no longer obsessed with the issue of his wife. He quickly said, "The description is a bit general, but I can draw his portrait. You can take a look at the portrait and you will know
What does my girl look like?"
Li Qilang's eyes lit up. He had seen Wang Yue paint before, and he said excitedly, "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and draw it for me."
Wang Yuan twitched his lips, and without arguing with Li Qilang, he asked the waiter to bring him pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and he quickly drew a portrait of Shi Yi.
Li Qilang looked at the lifelike scroll and felt as if he had found a treasure. With trembling hands, he carefully picked up the portrait and examined it carefully, as if this was his daughter beside him.
Wang Yue was very moved by Li Qilang's performance for a moment. He could also understand Li Qilang's mood, but he quickly reminded, "They have another meaning in worshiping Buddha this time. It seems that Auntie and Shi Yi are going to be together in a few years."
I went to Xizhou and heard that Piao Guang was planning to let Shi Yi become a disciple of Zhou Shengchen."
Li Qilang's body trembled slightly, and he said excitedly, "How could such a shrewd person like Yu Guang do such a stupid thing?"
Wang Yue didn't believe that Yang Guang would do stupid things. He was a veteran of several dynasties. He thought about it and said with a smile, "The matter between the old King Nanchen and Cui Siniang caused a bad relationship between the Yang family and Prince Nanchen's house. Come to think of it,
The old fox is preparing to ease the relationship."
