Chi Danmei shook her head and said, "Don't tell anyone about this, and you don't have to worry too much. I won't hurt anyone in the palace, and I will be careful not to be discovered. Just don't worry."

"Why is this?" Qi Ning said anxiously: "The palace is full of palaces, and there are nearly a hundred palaces of all sizes. You are not familiar with it. If you want to find something in such a large place, wouldn't it be a needle in a haystack? If you look for a room at a time, it would take years even if you are not discovered. Instead of spending so much time here, wouldn't it be easier for me to ask the emperor for rewards?"

"I said I can't succeed." Chi Danmei said anxiously: "Although that thing is of no use to you, your emperor will never give it to you."

Qi Ning was stunned and doubted in her heart: "Why? What are you looking for? It's so weird?"

Before Chi Danmei could speak, she heard a cry from outside: "Mr. Marquis, Marquis!"

The two separated immediately, and Qi Ning flashed to the door. When the sound approached, Chi Danmei had already come over and whispered: "We have been here for too long, so we must have become suspicious there, so I will send someone to find him."

Qi Ning also knew that it would always be strange to come out for so long, and whispered: "Then you have to be careful in the palace. I will come to see you if I have the chance." Thinking that I could not come directly to Fengyi Palace. It was not easy to see Chi Danmei next time. When I thought of something, I asked in a low voice: "Is it your good thing for Sima Wanqiong to get a needle on her leg yesterday?"

Chi Danmei smiled charmingly and did not answer. Qi Ning looked at her eyes and knew that what happened yesterday must have been her.

At this time, when he heard the scream approaching, Qi Ning knew that it was not good to delay any further. He opened the door with a "ga" sound, pretending to be tidying up his clothes and walked out of the door. It happened that a palace maid over there was coming. When he saw Qi Ning, he hurriedly said, "Marty!"

Qi Ning coughed twice. At this time, Chi Danmei had already gone out of the door, waved her hand and took the door, stood behind Qi Ning with her head down. Qi Ning said to the palace maid: "What's wrong?"

"The emperor was worried that the marquis would be lost in the palace, so he sent his servants to search for him."

Qi Ning said "um" and walked back along the same path. Chi Danmei followed her, and the palace maid also quickly followed. At this time, Qi Ning had no chance to talk to Chi Danmei. She felt a little regretful. She thought that she was just talking and forgot to let Chi Danmei show her true face for herself.

But I didn't know whether Chi Danmei was wearing a slut or had other disguise skills. I couldn't help but look at her side. Chi Danmei lowered her head slightly, but the corners of her eyes were also glancing at her. Her beautiful eyes were charming and seductive, and Qi Ning's heart thumped. Chi Danmei was flowing in a swaying wave, and she also smiled charmingly.

When he arrived at the main hall, Chi Danmei could not continue to go in and stayed outside. Qi Ning was a little reluctant, but it was difficult to stop. He glanced at Chi Danmei and went in. Longtai was talking to the queen inside. Seeing Qi Ning coming in, Longtai smiled and said, "You have been in a long time now, are you confused?"

"Your Majesty, the palace is too big. The sister who led the way is just a newcomer. She is not very familiar with this place. She finally found a place." Qi Ning smiled and said nothing.

The queen smiled and said, "When the Jinyi Hou, Tianluo Paste has been wrapped for you, just take it back when you leave the palace."

Qi Ning glanced at the side and saw that the two boxes of Tianluo paste were wrapped in yellow brocade, and hurriedly bowed: "I thank the Queen for your kindness and reward!"

Longtai said: "House Jinyi, I know what happened yesterday. You have maintained the court's etiquette, and I and the queen both think you are a loyal minister."

At this time, Qi Ning already understood that today Longtai brought him to the harem to meet the queen, which should be the queen's meaning.

If the queen had not stood up yesterday, the queen would have suffered a humiliation. Sima Wanqiong would not only ride into the palace in a jade chariot, but even the jade chariot would have to walk in front of the queen. Dongqi is a small country after all, and the Sima family is a powerful minister of Chu. The prince of Dongqi was not good at turning against each other on the spot yesterday, so he could only endure it. Fortunately, he came forward to speak up for justice, which made the queen enter the palace with glory.

The queen was naturally aware of this, and she must be grateful for what Qi Ning did yesterday, so she asked Longtai to lead Qi Ning to the harem and express her gratitude.

Qi Ning thanked him again. Longtai also knew that a foreign minister had not stayed in the harem for a long time and ordered: "The waiter of Jinyi can retire first. The Ministry of Justice hurried over to take office. Don't delay the errand work. Let me send the decree to the Ministry of Justice."

Qi Ning bowed and said yes, then he picked up the Tianluo ointment given by the queen and retired. He knew that the emperor was newly married, and the court's etiquette system could ignore the government within three days. The little emperor felt the queen's tenderness and was afraid that he would stay in Fengyi Palace these two days.

A palace maid led Qi Ning out of Fengyi Palace. Qi Ning looked around calmly and found that Chi Danmei had disappeared. She was very confused and didn't know what Chi Danmei ran to the palace to find.

Today's trip to the palace was a great reward. Not only did he receive the reward from the queen, but he also took over the position of Minister of Justice.

Qi Ning knew that in terms of experience and qualifications, he was afraid that he would not even be in charge of the Ministry of Justice. It was because of the situation in the court that Longtai brought himself to the position of Minister of Justice, and suspected in his heart that he might be the youngest Minister of Justice in the Ministry of Justice in ancient times.

When I returned to the Marquis' Mansion, I couldn't see Gu Qinghan for a moment, so I followed the path to my yard. Suddenly I heard a sound from behind the flowerbed next to me. I felt suspicious and quietly approached the back of the flowerbed to see a maid sitting on a stone, holding a paper bag in my hand, sitting alone on the ground in front of the maid, with her hair undressed, but it was the black and weird man.

The black-clad man had been in the marquis' mansion for a long time, but Qi Ning didn't stay in the mansion for much time. In comparison, the ugly man spent more time in the mansion than Qi Ning.

Qi Ning looked at the maid, but also recognized that the maid was Su Lan.

Qi Ning knew vaguely that this black man had a strange temper and would occasionally make the Marquis's Mansion go crazy. He did not obey others' words except himself, but he was only depressed to Su Lan.

At this time, when he saw the scene in front of him, Su Lan was sitting on a stone, under the sun, taking out pastries from the paper bag and delivering them to the strange man's mouth. The strange man sat honestly in front of Su Lan, like a child. When Su Lan's pastries were delivered, he opened his mouth and swallowed them in one bite, like a couple in love.

However, Qi Ning knew that Su Lan was just pitying this strange man, so she took care of him more. Although Su Lan was not a stunning beauty, she also had six or seven pink looks. Judging from her appearance, Su Lan and the ugly man were too different, just like a beauty and a wild beast. It would be possible that the ugly man fell in love with Su Lan, but it was a bit incredible to say that Su Lan liked the ugly man.

"Slow down, don't hurry." Su Lan had a gentle temperament and a gentle voice: "This is what the third lady gave me, I left it to you. Eat slowly, no one snatched it with you." She smiled gently, took a handkerchief, and went over and wiped the corner of the ugly man's mouth gently.

The ugly man swallowed and stared at Su Lan and smiled silly, but he was also very obedient.

The previous monster man fought in the Marquis's mansion because of Su Lan, which also made Qi Ning know that this strange man not only had a very fast foot speed, but also had good martial arts skills. Although he had no internal strength, he was born with divine power and could quickly learn the opponent's tricks, and then used his way to give him the other person. This talent alone was already shocking.

According to Li Tang and others' judgment, this strange man was likely to have mastered martial arts, but because he was obsessed with the fact that he became like this. Whether this person was good or evil in the past and where he came from was always a mystery.

Seeing the weird man's obedient appearance, Qi Ning couldn't help but think that if this weird man used to be a traitor and evil person, it would be better to be like now, without worrying about food and clothing in the marquis's house, and would not have any ambitions, nor would he hurt others. This would not be a bad thing.

There are many experts in the world. Some people are crazy because they are obsessed with the devil, forget everything in the past, and become stupid. This is not without precedent. A person like this may not have been paid attention to by many people in the past. Now that they have disappeared for a long time, no one will no longer be left alone.

In the sunshine, looking at the two people in front of him, Qi Ning thought that at least at this moment, it should be happy for these two people, and Qi Ning never interrupted others' habit of happiness and stepped back.

Back in the house, he opened the package and placed two exquisite boxes. Qi Ning carefully opened a box, which was a small round porcelain jar. When he opened the lid, a light fragrance emanated from it. Qi Ning looked inside and found that it was indeed a creamy thing. He was not very interested in this, so he closed the lid.

The queen gave two boxes of Tianluo paste, which is suitable for female family members. Although there are many female members in the Marquis' Mansion, only Gu Qinghan and Tang Nuo can be given gifts.

However, Qi Ningfa raised Gu Qinghan and paid attention to maintenance in daily life, but Tang Nuo seemed to have never dressed up and was always simple and elegant. Moreover, Tang Nuo was proficient in pharmacology, but he didn't know whether he looked down on this Tianluo ointment. Tianluo ointment is very expensive in the eyes of others, but it may not be worth mentioning in Tang Nuo's eyes.

Qi Ning thought for a while, wrapped one of the boxes again and put them away, picked up the other exquisite box, went out, and went straight to Gu Qinghan's yard.

Because he realized that someone might monitor his whereabouts and Gu Qinghan in the mansion, Qi Ning and Gu Qinghan were careful, but today there was a Tianluo ointment given by the queen and gave it to Gu Qinghan in the past. This reason is truly valuable and will not make people too suspicious.

During the morning meal, Gu Qinghan ran away in panic. When she thought of the beautiful young woman's panic, Qi Ning wanted to laugh.

When he got to Gu Qinghan's yard, Gu Qinghan's personal maid Bing Qiao was trimming branches in the yard. When he saw Qi Ning coming in and was about to speak, Qi Ning raised his hand to signal Bing Qiao not to make any noise. Bing Qiao nodded obediently and pointed at a room next to him. Qi Ning smiled slightly and then approached him.

Gu Qinghan is the third wife of the Hou Mansion, and the yard she lives in is naturally very spacious. The room Bing Qiao knew is Gu Qinghan's study.

Gu Qinghan was born into a gentry family. He has studied since childhood and read the books. He also set up a study in her courtyard, but there are not many books. Among them, there are some accounts lists of the Hou Mansion. Gu Qinghan also has a list of accounts in Gu Qinghan. Every month when reconciling accounts, there are bills on both sides, which makes it easy to check.

The door of the study was open, and Qi Ning walked over lightly, but saw Gu Qinghan standing next to a desk, holding a pen in his hand, and drawing something on the paper with concentration. She turned her back to Qi Ning, and the beautiful back lines were smooth. Qi Ning walked into the study lightly, but Gu Qinghan didn't notice it.

Qi Ning walked lightly behind Gu Qinghan. There was a window in front of the desk. Two golden silk Bodhi trees were planted behind the window. Vines grew green in the corner of the wall. Qi Ning glanced at the paper and found that Gu Qinghan was painting in front of the window. What he was painting was the golden silk Bodhi tree behind.

Qi Ning took a closer look and found that Gu Qinghan's brushwork was smooth. Although his paintings could not be compared with famous artists, they were also very vivid.

Gu Qinghan was immersed in it, and never noticed that Qi Ning was standing behind her. Qi Ning didn't say anything and watched her painting quietly. After a while, Gu Qinghan put the brush on the inkstone and blew a few scents at the painting. Then she carefully picked it up with her hands, tilted her head slightly to the window, and looked at her painting, and she seemed quite satisfied.

"Sanniang is not only good at piano skills, but also her paintings are so vivid." Qi Ning couldn't help but exclaim: "It turns out that he is the best woman in the Marquis of Jinyi."

Gu Qinghan was shocked by the sudden sound, and turned around with a "Oh", then quickly took two steps back. After seeing clearly that it was Qi Ning, she patted her chest and blamed her: "Why don't you talk when you come in? Are you scared to death?" She was still in shock, and her chest was trembling.

"I saw Sanniang painting here, and I didn't dare to disturb Sanniang, for fear of disturbing Sanniang." Qi Ning put the dan Luo ointment in his hand on the table: "Sanniang, show it to me." He reached out to search for the painting, but Gu Qinghan put the painting behind him and said, "If you don't show it to you, you will scare me to death."

Qi Ning laughed, and then Gu Qinghan looked at the box on the table, frowned and said, "What is it?"

"It is the Tianluo ointment given by the queen." Qi Ning said: "The gifts brought by the queen from Dongqi are specially used for women. I heard that they are very precious. Applying them on the lips can not only make you young and beautiful, but also have a strange fragrance. I can't use them myself, so I can only respect Sanniang."

Gu Qinghan gave Qi Ning a blank look and said, "If you don't need it, just stay here." He looked outside, and did not dare to approach Qi Ning. He bit his lip. Seeing Qi Ning staring at him, he deliberately coughed, and said, "Just put down the things, you can go quickly."

Qi Ning shrugged and said, "I just sent a gift to Sanniang. Sanniang will drive me away now?"

"What are you doing if you don't leave?" Gu Qinghan said angrily: "If nothing is wrong, go back and read a few more books."

Qi Ning smiled, reached out and pulled a piece of white paper, rolled up her sleeves, lifted up her brush, Gu Qinghan's beautiful eyes widened and said strangely: "What are you doing?"

"Draw!" Qi Ning laughed and picked up the pen to paint on the paper. Gu Qinghan was very surprised. She had never seen Qi Ning paint. She thought when this kid could draw again. She was suspicious and couldn't help but approach, but Qi Ning had already drawn lines on the paper. Gu Qinghan saw that his writing was completely unpretentious, and she felt funny, but she still stood by with interest.

Qi Ning is not good at painting, but she has not never touched it in her previous life. She can understand a little bit of a shallow painting. After a moment, he drew a rough outline of the human body. Gu Qinghan looked like a woman, with her body lines concave and convex. Although the painting was not exquisite, she could at least roughly outline the outline of the body, but the lines of both the chest and the buttocks seemed very exaggerated.

"Who are you drawing?" Gu Qinghan was a little curious and couldn't help asking.

Qi Ning glanced at her and smiled and said, "Who else, Sanniang, doesn't look like you?"

Gu Qinghan was stunned. At this time, she looked more carefully and found that the woman had a contour of her chest and buttocks, which was very exaggerated. Her face turned red. She reached out to pull her hands and said angrily: "You are not allowed to draw, who told you to draw like this!" Thinking of her exaggerated figure in Qi Ning's eyes, she felt her face getting hotter.

Gu Qinghan snatched it and was about to tear it apart, but suddenly felt that Qi Ning was silent and a little strange. He looked at him and saw Qi Ning staring at the Bodhi tree outside the back window in a daze. Gu Qinghan was even more surprised. He couldn't help but push Qi Ning's arm gently and asked softly: "Ning'er, what's wrong with you?"

Qi Ning slowly turned his head, looked at Gu Qinghan, but his expression seemed very serious, and asked in a low voice: "Sanniang, I suddenly remembered something, and it was very strange."

"What's up?"

Qi Ning looked around and lowered his voice and said, "You said that the one who appeared in the Buddhist temple that night was a cow head and horse face, right?"

Gu Qinghan's face changed slightly, and she looked around and lowered her voice: "What are you talking about at this time?"

"Why is it a bull-headed and horse-faced?" Qi Ning frowned and thoughtfully said in a low voice: "If they want to hide their true faces, they can choose a light mask at will. Why do they pretend to be a god and a ghost? They have to pretend to be a bull-headed and horse-faced!" He pulled over a new piece of paper, picked up the pen and drew a simple bull-head, and then he gently put down his pen and stared at the bull-headed and eyes on the paper without blinking.

"Ning'er, what did you think of?" Gu Qinghan asked in a low voice, unable to help but approach Qi Ning, looking at the picture: "Do you think there is a reason for them to pretend to be bull-headed and horse-faced?"

"It must be." Qi Ning whispered: "Niutao and Horse Face is a soul-catching messenger in hell. Living people are very taboo about this, but they pretend to be Niutao and Horse Face. Of course, there is something strange about this, and there must be some reason." He raised his hand and put it on his forehead, closed his eyes slightly, and said to himself: "What's the reason?"
