191: An Yuan found out that the traitor Zi Jin was furious

191: Anyuan is traitor, and Zi Jin is so angry that he is talking on the road and eavesdropping in the grass nest. That is to say, some people think that their place is very safe and will not be eavesdropped by others, but maybe in places you can't imagine, they will be listened to by others by accident. Just like Yao Yutang, if someone who is not familiar with Zi Jin is usually not familiar with Zi Jin, he will not take his name to heart even when he hears his nun. But his sister hears it, he will naturally hear it in his heart. The Yao family has many children, and it is not easy for outsiders to identify them one by one.

Zi Jin didn't want everyone to worry, so she smiled and covered up the matter. "Maybe it was because I heard someone else's talk about it, and I would repeat it accidentally. One day I would go to Guzi Temple to enjoy incense sticks."

When everyone heard what Zi Jin said, it made sense. After all, the most important thing to offend in these temples, Taoist temples, Guzi's and other places is the people in Beijing. Zi Jin is also considered to have married into a noble family, so it is normal for someone to mention it.

Zi Jin gave Yao Yutang the gifts from Mrs. Ye, Du Manqiu and the eldest princess. Yao Yutang hurriedly thanked them and asked Zi Jin to thank him on his behalf. After lunch at Hou's house, he said goodbye one by one and went back to his house.

Zi Jin met the Marquis' Mansion and first went to Mrs. Ye's house to thank Yao Yutang. Unexpectedly, Du Manqiu and the eldest princess were there, so she thanked each other. Mrs. Ye smiled and asked, "Is it good for your sister to be pregnant?"

"It's okay, I can eat and sleep. Thank you for my grandmother's concern." Zi Jin said with a smile, and Du Manqiu also said with a smile: "The most important thing for a woman to have the first three months of pregnancy. As long as she goes through these three months, it will basically be fine."

"Yes, my sisters also reminded the fourth sister in this way." Zi Jin said with a smile.

The eldest princess looked at Zi Jin and smiled softly: "Your sisters have all your bodies, so you must also spread your branches and leaves for the Ye family."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mrs. Ye also smiled and said, "It is precisely this principle that your sisters are easy to raise, and you may not be able to get any worse. Just work harder."

Du Manqiu's face was a little bitter, but he still had a smile, but there was a ball of black ink deep in his eyes, which was so thick that it couldn't be dissolved, making people unable to see clearly what they were thinking.

Zi Jin's face was flushed and twisted her handkerchief and responded softly, "The granddaughter-in-law dared not let down the expectations of his elders, and he only worked hard to do his best." He paused at this point, looked up at Mrs. Ye and said, "My fourth sister said that she had never been pregnant at first. I heard that the incense of Qingshui Temple was very effective. I have been there a few times, but it turned out to be pregnant. My granddaughter-in-law thought that she might as well go and worship."

Qingshui Temple is quite famous in Kyoto. Old Mrs. Ye squinted her eyes and thought for a while, turned to look at Du Manqiu and said, "I remember that Master Jingmi, the lord of Qingshui Temple, had come to our Marquis' Mansion a few years ago, right?"

Du Manqiu looked slightly stunned. He probably didn't expect that Mrs. Ye would suddenly ask her. He was stunned and came back to his senses and smiled: "It's true, but my mother doesn't believe in these things. Since then, we haven't had too much contact with Qingshui'an, and our daughter-in-law just donated some indulgence and oil money every month."

Since Zi Jin entered the mansion, he has never heard that Du Manqiu actually donated incense and oil to Qingshui'an, and he still donated it every month. Seeing Du Manqiu's words in an understatement, it seemed that it was not a big deal, and his eyes were swept on Du Manqiu's hands. Although he was covered by his wide sleeves, Zi Jin still saw a wrinkled handkerchief.

It was just a Qingshui Temple. How could Du Manqiu feel so nervous? Zi Jin felt obedient, but this doubt was just a blink of an eye, because after looking again, Du Manqiu's hand had already loosened, and the smile on his face was as always, as if Zi Jin was just dazzled just now.

"There were a few years ago. Since Mrs. Hou worshipped the Bodhisattva in Qingshui Temple and became pregnant, it can be seen that it was also effective. Another day, I would ask Mingxuan’s wife and Brother Jin’s wife to go and worship together." Mrs. Ye sighed. It doesn’t matter whether you believe it or not, as long as it works. Now I can’t find out why Ye Jin and Ye Fan’s family cannot have children, so I can only worship the Bodhisattva and ask for psychological comfort.

"In fact, the most famous place in Kyoto is the Dajue Temple, which has the most incense and the Ganqing Temple is also quite famous. They are worse than Qingshui Temple. Why not go to Dajue Temple?" Du Manqiu asked with a smile, "Since it is a child, I'll give more money to incense and oil."

Mrs. Ye was a little hesitant and was unable to go to Dajue Temple or Qingshui Temple for a moment. Zi Jin felt even more strange. Du Manqiu seemed to deliberately avoid Qingshui Temple. Some doubts in her heart became more and more intense, but she still looked at the princess and gave a look of help.

The eldest princess glanced at Zi Jin, then smiled and said to Du Manqiu, "Since Mrs. Hou was begging her son in Qingshui Temple to get what she wished, why not go to Qingshui Temple first. If Qingshui Temple is not effective, then go to Dajue Temple or Qingshui Temple." After saying this, she looked at Mrs. Ye and asked, "Mother, what do you think?"

Mrs. Ye nodded and said, "Let's do it, go to Qingshui Temple first."

Zi Jin breathed a sigh of relief and lowered her eyes. Her face was faint. Even though she didn't look up, she could detect Du Manqiu's vague gaze swept her. It was a very strange feeling, as if she was scanning, as if she was looking at her strangeness. Fortunately, Zi Jin was not careless and looked as shy as before. After all, she was still half a new wife, and she would blush when she heard words such as asking for a child.

After walking out of Luyuan, Zi Jin followed the eldest princess back to Meiyuan. Madam Jiang personally served tea and stood by to serve him. Zi Jin knew that Madam Jiang was the most trustworthy person next to the eldest princess, so she didn't shy away. She just raised her head and looked outside through the window. Madam Jiang immediately understood that she pretended to be casually raising the curtain and patrolling the outside. After confirming that no one eavesdropped, she slowly came back.

Zi Jin lowered his voice and said, "Mom, I went to see my fourth sister this time. I heard that someone mentioned my name in Qingshui Temple."

The eldest princess was stunned. She was about to take down Jin Buyao, who was about to put the heavy treasure-embedded red gold silk on her head, froze, and pushed the hairpin back into her hair, asking, "What's going on?" After all, the eldest princess has experienced a lot of things and can quickly detect something is wrong. Logically speaking, places like Guzi'an will not randomly mention the names of noble people from noble families.

Madam Jiang also frowned and said, "Our family and Qingshui An offer some indulgence and oil money every month except Mrs. Du, and no one has ever had much contact with them. How could the third young lady's name appear in the mouth of the little nun of Guzi An for no reason?"

Zi Jin said at this time: "It's not a little nun. My fourth sister often goes to Qingshui Temple and knows it a little about it. She said she is a nun of the Heng generation."

Although he didn't have much contact with Qingshui An and the eldest princess didn't know what kind of generation the Heng generation was, Madam Jiang knew it and was stunned and said, "It's actually Master Jingmi's apprentice?"

The three-legged auspicious beast on the incense rack is a faint fragrance of apricot flowers. On the Bogu stand next to it is gold, silver and jadeware, in different forms. The apricot and yellow curtains are tied with hollow carved jade hooks. When the wind blows, the curtains move slightly, as if water lines float, and they are colorful.

The decorations of the eldest princess' house are not necessarily very luxurious, but they have a noble feeling that they are afraid to look at. Not everyone can learn this low-key luxury. At least Zi Jin does not have the taste and vision of the eldest princess yet. When observing a person's personality, you must start from small things. This sentence is regarded as a famous saying, and Zi Jin is right. At least the eldest princess sits in this room to set off the low-key luxury of the room.

"No wonder you brought the topic to Qingshui Temple today. I guess you have any suspicion about it?" The eldest princess sighed, looking unknown.

Zi Jin hurriedly said, "I originally wanted to discuss with my mother before I could do it. I didn't expect that you and Mrs. Du were here, so I thought it would be better to choose a day than to have a day. And I just found that when I mentioned Qingshui Temple, Mrs. Du's expression was a bit strange."

Zi Jin said his discovery and said, "After all, it's my own guess and I can't do it accurately."

"Mrs. Du has always been calm and accurate in his actions. He even lost his mind. It seems a bit strange." Madam Jiang said. Madam Jiang has never had a good impression of Du Manqiu. After so many years, even if he doesn't know much, he can guess it well.

The eldest princess looked at Zi Jin and said, "Do you suspect that there is just a reconciliation with us on the surface, but in fact there are other actions in private?"

Zi Jin felt a little embarrassed and blushed, then said, "Maybe it's because my daughter-in-law is too vilified. I always think that if it were me, I might not be very relieved. After all, after a decade of disputes, we just said we would let go. No one would doubt whether it was different from each other. Moreover, Mrs. Du and Qingshui An had been with her grandmother for many years, but not many people seem to know. It seems that this is the first time you know that Mrs. Du has been adding money to Qingshui An over the years, and she must donate it every month. It's strange that she has maintained it for so many years."

The eldest princess nodded, "This is the first time I have heard this. I just know that Qingshui Temple has been to the door a few years ago, but I didn't care. I am a royal family and I usually go to more royal temples, Dajue Temple."

As the few people gathered together, there were more and more suspicions. Zi Jin suddenly looked at Madam Jiang and asked, "Madam, have you ever been to Qingshui Temple after entering the door with his sister-in-law?"

Madam Jiang was stunned, thought about it seriously, and said, "No, at least I didn't openly go out from the Marquis' Mansion to Qingshui Temple." What this means is that after entering the Marquis' Mansion, no one knows whether he went to the Marquis' Mansion or not.

Zi Jin pondered silently, if neither Chu nor Shen had been to Qingshui Temple with Du Manqiu, this would also show one thing. If Du Manqiu really had any contact with Qingshui Temple, then Chu and Shen were unaware of it. So just now, the old lady said that if Chu and Shen would go with him, Zi Jin would have at least two more concealed things.

Thinking of this, he suddenly smiled and looked at the eldest princess and said, "Let's see if the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law can make a trip to Qingshui Temple this time."

The eldest princess laughed and reached out to light Zijin's forehead, "You are the ghost elves."

Madam Jiang smiled from the side: "The third young lady is extremely intelligent, and it is a blessing for the princess."

Yes, if the Chu family and Shen family can make a journey without any obstacles, it means that their suspicion of Du Manqiu may be a bit unreliable. If the two cannot make a journey smoothly, they can be sure that Du Manqiu is likely to have a ghost. Of course, if the mind is a little more cunning, if it can make a journey smoothly, it is also very likely that Du Manqiu has already done everything in Qingshui Temple and is not afraid of anyone seeking anything.

This trip to Qingshui Temple was just a stepping stone for Zi Jin to test Du Manqiu. Of course, it would be even better if he could really find out what was strange about Qingshui Temple. Zi Jin could not do this, but it is very likely that Ye Mingxuan could do it.

However, Wanrong is the largest in the Jinyiwei now, and Ye Mingxuan is also suspicious of Wanrong. It is probably not easy to avoid Wanrong and find out Qingshui'an. What Zi Jin is most unscrupulous now is Ye Jin and Ye Fan. What they play in this role.

Facing the dark fog in front of him, Zi Jin felt that his future was really confused.

If Yao Yutang hadn't suddenly mentioned his name in Qingshui Temple, if he hadn't returned to the Marquis' Mansion to talk about this with Mrs. Ye and then found that something was wrong with Du Manqiu, maybe Zi Jin would have really relaxed his vigilance. After all, Ye Qingcheng had promised Ye Jin to attack the ranks, then Du Manqiu should have no desire to continue to fight. The Ye family should have joined forces to fight against foreign enemies. Now the biggest enemy of the Marquis' Mansion is Qin Shifeng, and the biggest hidden danger is that Zi Jin has a face similar to Aruo. No matter what, the hidden dangers of the Marquis' Mansion have been buried.

Zi Jin didn't even know that if one day Qin Shifeng ascended the throne, would Mrs. Ye and Du Manqiu hand over themselves and protect the Marquis' Mansion? Life is a game. Now it seems that Zi Jin can still be safe under the protection of the Marquis' Mansion, but when she is the biggest hidden danger of the Marquis' Mansion, no one can predict whether the family's supreme leader will give up on themselves for the family.

Therefore, Ye Mingxuan would do his best not to let Qin Shifeng sit on the throne, but what could Yao Zijin do? She, a woman in the inner husband, really couldn't do anything. The only thing she could do was to let Ye Mingxuan fight in the officialdom without any worries.

When she returned to Anyuan, Zi Jin was exhausted all over. Too many things came to her, which caught her off guard. She wanted to cover herself with a quilt and have a good sleep, but when she entered the door, Zhou's mother and Xianqiao followed her in. They looked solemn. Through the window, they saw Han Mei and Shui Rong doing needlework under the eaves of the main house. They said they were doing needlework, but they were just guarding Zi Jin's door to prevent others from eavesdropping or getting close to them.

Looking at the solemn expressions of the two, Zi Jin's heart also raised up, and all her fatigue ran away at once and asked, "What happened?" Zi Jin leaned on the pillow with green flowers everywhere, and the solemnity could not be blocked between her eyebrows and eyes.

"That day, the girl told us to stare at the whereabouts of everyone in the yard, and today I finally got a clue." Xianqiu replied in a low voice.

Zi Jin was stunned and looked at Seiqiao and asked, "I went to the eldest princess's garden that day, but she did not show up when I left the mansion today?"

Mother Zhou snorted angrily and said, "No, the cunning little hoof. If the old slave hadn't been too scrupulous, he would have been deceived."

It was amazing to be able to deceive Zhou's mother's eyes. Zi Jin then felt that the matter was important. She hurriedly sat upright and asked, "Looking at it, who is this person?"

"Su Wan." said delicately.

When Zi Jin suddenly heard the name of this person, he was stunned. No surprise. Su Wan was originally the eyeliner of Mrs. Du An coming in. She looked up at Zhou's mother and asked, "Has she been going to Chengyuan to deliver the message?"

Zhou's mother shook her head and said, "If you go to Chengyuan, it would be fine. After all, no one in this mansion knows that Su Wan is Mrs. Du's person, but she didn't go to Chengyuan."

"Didn't you go to Chengyuan? Where did you go?" Zi Jin's expression gradually faded. The result was really unexpected. Could it be that Su Wan is not Du Manqiu's person?

Seiqiao glanced at Zhou's mother and then said, "I'm not on duty today, so I asked Zhou's mother for a day off to go back to visit me." Every month, the girls and mothers in each yard can take a day off. There is this one. Suwan's family is a son from the Hou's family, so it's also necessary to go back to visit me. Zi Jin nodded and said, "What?"

"The wife has been married for several months, but Su Wan has not returned to visit relatives every month. Mother Zhou felt something was strange, so she told me that I asked me to find my servant to find your companion room. She was in charge of your dowry shop, and asked his youngest son Chen An to stare at Su Wan's every move outside." Xianqiu said slowly.

Zi Jin nodded silently. Zhou's mother did a good job. It can be seen that she was really doing things with her heart. She used her room to supervise the people outside. Because of her face, she would not arouse others' suspicion.

After a delicate pause, he continued, "After Su Wan returned home, the door of her house was closed and no one came out. Chen An, the youngest son of Shopkeeper Chen, was a clever son, so he walked around her house because her family lived in the middle of a house behind the long alley where our Marquis' Mansion lived for slaves. The alley was long. It took Chen An half an hour to walk around. He was thinking that he was afraid that someone would come out in front of him and he didn't know that he took out ten copper coins and gave them to the two little beggars on the street to help him stare. If someone came out, one would follow the other and leave it to him to spread the news. If two people came out, they would let them watch one. After the stare, they would come back here to wait for him. He would give the two little beggars one by one or two silver as a reward."

Zi Jin was very pleased. Among his servants, he was a crouching tiger and a hidden dragon. It seemed that Chen An could reuse it in the future.

Xian Qiao didn't know what Zi Jin was thinking, so she continued: "I arranged two little beggars to continue staring. Chen An quietly turned to the back of Suwan's house to see if there was a corner door or something convenient for entry and exit. Unexpectedly, before Chen An turned in, he saw a sedan chair parked in the back alley. From there, a nun knocked on a door. Soon the door opened. Chen An did not see the person who opened the door and just saw the nun walking in. At that time, the person carrying the sedan chair was still in the back alley. Chen An did not dare to act rashly, so he turned around and turned back, called one of the two little beggars over, and asked him to go over and beg for the person carrying the sedan chair, and remember which door those people were standing in front of."

When Zi Jin heard Xianqiao say this, he understood that every family should have corner doors that are convenient to enter and exit, because the ancient slaves lived in a long row of houses, and then separated by walls into separate small courtyards, just like pigeon cages. Such an exact house and a corner door. When people left and looked over, they really couldn't tell which one they belonged to. Chen An was not only smart but also very smart.

"The little beggar naturally passed by, but I didn't expect that the little beggar who carried the sedan chair was not only poor, but also gave him two feet and beat him out. However, the little beggar was also very clever. He remembered which family the person carrying the sedan chair stood in front of him, and made a secret note when he fell to the ground. Chen An asked the little beggar to change another little beggar guarding the front door. When these people carried the nun away, the little beggar followed him.

Go. Chen An waited until the person left, and then walked into the alley. He found the secret note made by the little beggar, remembered the door, and returned to the main gate and went all the way. It was Su Wan's home. When Chen An walked to the front door, the little beggar guarding the front door disappeared. Chen An knew that someone had gone out of the front door and the little beggar followed, so he arrived at the place he had made an appointment with the little beggar. He waited for four or five hours before the two came back.

The little beggar who was walking in the sedan chair and followed the nun directly out of the city. Then he entered a nun. The little beggar was illiterate and asked the nun nearby what the nun was called and came back. Therefore, it took some effort. Another little beggar was more dangerous. It turned out that the person who went out of the front door wanted to lead the person to the stalker. Fortunately, the little beggar was smarter. When he saw that the man was getting worse and worse, he had a scheming mind and went to the forefront of another path.

Go. Who knew that after waiting for more than an hour, he didn't wait for anyone. Although the little beggar was very scared, he thought about making an appointment with the person, so he carefully turned back from the other end of the road he had not taken at the beginning. As a result, when he walked to the place where he noticed something was wrong, he saw a dead corpse in the long alley where he turned, and this dead corpse was not the one who was being followed by the little beggar." As Xianqiao said, his face turned pale and his palms were sweating faintly.

Zi Jin never expected that it would be so dangerous. He frowned tightly and asked Seiqiao: "Is the nunnery that the first little beggar followed him to be called Qingshui Temple?"

Xian Qiao and Zhou Mama were both stunned and blurted out, asking in unison: "How do you know?"

Zi Jin waved his hand without answering, but instead thought about the second little beggar. It seemed that the person who followed Su Wan's front door was not just a little beggar, but another person. Who must have noticed someone was following him, so he deliberately led the person to a remote place to assassinate the enemy and eliminated the enemy. However, the little beggar was very clever and thought he was used to being with the sect. He realized that something was wrong and knew that he would block the front. But he didn't expect that such a block would save his life. Unfortunately, the opponent was too cunning and still did not follow the person's place.

However, this has already revealed too much news to Zi Jin, which means that Su Wan went home to visit her relatives was not accidental. Someone must have made an appointment to meet at her house that day. It was just that one went in earlier than Chen An, so Chen An did not see it, and the other came later than Chen An, so Chen An encountered it.

Zi Jin looked at the two and asked, "Is the man who walked through the front door a man or a woman? The little beggar should know about men and women."

Zhou's mother calmed down and said, "It's a man. The little beggar said she was wearing an indigo silk shirt. She was about six feet tall and had a fierce and hard face, which was very terrifying."

In ancient times, one foot was much smaller than the current one, but if you are six feet tall, it was about 1.8 meters tall, and your face was fierce and hard. Only those who practice martial arts for many years had this shocking aura. Later, another person who followed him splattered three feet of blood, which proved this point. Even if this man did not have peerless martial arts skills, at least he could do both. Such a person was not something ordinary people could afford.

Things became more and more complicated, and Zi Jin's mind was almost wrinkled. Unexpectedly, he had just a little doubt about Qingshui'an, so good news came here. If Su Wan had contact with the people from Qingshui'an, then whether Du Manqiu, as Su Wan's old master, knew it, was it that Du Manqiu was instructed by Su Wan to go out to meet and convey the news?

Xianqiao and Zhou's mother looked at Zi Jin's increasingly solemn expression, and became more and more uneasy. They all looked at Zi Jin and didn't say anything.

After a while, Zi Jin said slowly: "Chen An is doing a good job. Tell the shopkeeper Chen that I appreciate his son. He asked him to just hang a name in the shop, and then asked Chen An to find the two original little beggars, and try to form a gang of these little beggars to specifically find out the news, all kinds of news." When Zi Jin said this, she needed a beggar sect, but the beggar sect in martial arts is too powerful, Zi Jin asked himself that he was not capable of forming one. It was just that these people who lived at the bottom of this society were everywhere, but they could get a lot of news that others didn't know. Zi Jin should be good

Take advantage of this advantage. Thinking of this, he said: "Skinny, tell Chen An, that it is to gather these children and ask them to find out the news. I will pay for them to eat. But there is one thing that must be guaranteed to be safe. Don't follow dangerous places. If you can't find out dangerous news, don't follow them desperately. On the premise of ensuring your name, the more news, the better. Of course, when I want to know whose news, I will ask you to send them a letter and then let them take action. When I have nothing to do, it's better to just scatter in every corner of Kyoto as before."

Zi Jin thought that it would be better to leave such a big stall to Ye Mingxuan to command. He is a man and comes from the Jinyiwei, so it is easier to do these things.

Sure enough, when Ye Mingxuan came back in the evening, when Zi Jin told this, Ye Mingxuan's eyes lit up, but Ye Mingxuan also gave Zi Jin an absolutely unexpected news.
