Sheng Shaoqing found that her identity as the Queen Mother was really a sweet potato. She, who had always played a minor supporting role in other people's lives, suddenly became the protagonist. This feeling was really hard to get used to.
[Since you successfully discovered the inside story of Feng Mansion without using the system, your wisdom value will be increased by 20.]
"I'm talking about the system. I'm not from the 21st century anymore, so why do you need to train me into a comprehensive talent with comprehensive development of moral, intellectual, physical, artistic and labor skills?"
"If you are so smart, help me make a spinning jenny, and we can start the first industrial revolution directly."
[Host, if you do this again, I will really let you experience the tiger bench. 】
Sheng Shaoqing curled his lips and said that she would use her fists if she couldn't help it. It was really boring.
"Queen Mother! Queen Mother!"
Forsythia rushed in from outside happily, "Mother Queen, it's snowing heavily outside! It's so beautiful!"
An Ning, who followed closely behind, also walked in and said angrily, "Forsythia, how come you act like you've never seen snow before?"
Forsythia glared back at Aning, "I haven't seen it before. What's wrong? The key is whether the Queen Mother has seen it or not!"
The two of them had been around Sheng Shaoqing for a long time and gradually became happy. However, Aning was a few years older than Forsythia and acted more steadily.
Sheng Shaoqing walked out of the room. The cold and solemn atmosphere yesterday became clear and bright. The withered trees were covered by heavy snow. There was also a thick layer of snow on the golden roof of the main hall of the temple, making it even more solemn and solemn.
The young novice monk in the courtyard was sweeping away the snow. When he saw Sheng Shaoqing coming out, he saluted solemnly and said, "Best wishes, Queen Mother."
After the little novice monk finished speaking, he continued the work at hand, and Cui Yun ran in along the path cleared behind him.
"Queen Mother!"
Seeing her anxious expression, Sheng Shaoqing's heart suddenly skipped a beat, "What's wrong?"
Cui Yun whispered in Sheng Shaoqing's ear, "The messenger sent by Yun Shangshu said that someone detained it, but there was nothing in the car."
"What?!"
Seeing Sheng Shaoqing's disbelieving look, Cui Yun had no choice but to bite the bullet and said, "The news was supposed to arrive last night, but it suddenly snowed heavily and the messenger couldn't go up the mountain. It was only delivered this morning. Yun Shangshu originally sent a letter asking the Queen Mother about you.
I mean, after all, these are young men from aristocratic families, so it’s not easy to hold them captive for too long.”
"How long does it take to get to Chenliu from here?"
Cui Yun replied, "About half a day."
"Then this happened at noon yesterday?!"
Cui Yun nodded helplessly, "Those people may have been detained in Chenliu for a day now, but there is no stolen goods, so there is no way to explain!"
"System! Where is the thing?!"
"Who was caught?"
Sheng Shaoqing asked two questions. Cui Yun reported a few familiar surnames, and the system said, [The display here is that I am in Chenliu!]
"These little thieves are actually trying to trick the tiger away from the mountain?!"
Cui Yun answered, "You mean, their stolen goods and people are not together?"
"What did Yun Shangshu say?"
"Yun Shangshu only said that the stolen goods have not been found yet. When they opened their boxes, they found them empty. The group of people are making a fuss in the yamen now, asking Yun Shangshu to give them an explanation."
Sheng Shaoqing said angrily, "They are getting arrogant?!"
"System, where exactly is it?!"
[Host, this positioning skill requires payment.]
"pay!"
We can't let those boys run rampant!
The system sighed, as the host gained points and became a great person, his attitude immediately changed, his wallet became bulging, his waist became thicker, and his words became tougher.
[Those goods are at the Sheriff’s Mansion of Chenliu County, the residence of Yun Shangshu.]
Sheng Shaoqing:??????
What the hell???
"Did I hear correctly?"
[No, you heard that right. Someone from the Chenliu Wang family worked as an aide in the county governor’s mansion and transported goods into the county governor’s mansion in the name of the county governor’s private property. 】
These little bastards actually apply the saying that the most dangerous place is the safest place thoroughly and clearly.
Even if Yunzhi turned Chen Liu upside down, he would never realize that the stolen goods were in his mansion.
"Ajun, go and tell the messenger that Yun Shangshu should not be in a hurry to catch thieves outside and go home more often."
"Ah?" Cui Yun rarely lost his composure, opening his mouth wide but only uttering one syllable.
"Ah what? Go quickly." Sheng Shaoqing said anxiously. It would take half a day to get from here to Chenliu. Don't wait until he catches the person, and the goods have already been shipped out again.
Sheng Shaoqing looked at the white snow all over the mountains and fields, and completely lost his interest in admiring it. All he could think about was that it was really not the right time for this snow to fall, and it was really not as good as God.
"Sigh, I don't know when the messenger will arrive."
Sheng Shaoqing's whisper was heard by the young novice who had just swept the floor. He raised his head and asked, "Is the Queen Mother going to send someone down the mountain?"
Sheng Shaoqing pulled his eyes back and fixed his eyes on the little novice monk. Seeing his sincere eyes, he couldn't help but nodded.
The little novice monk pointed to the road behind him, "If we take the road from the main entrance, it will be difficult to walk in snowy weather and I'm afraid it will delay things. Go down this road, because there is a warm lake behind the mountain, the ground temperature is high, and there is no snow.
So it will be faster to go down the mountain that way."
Sheng Shaoqing looked happy and said to Cui Yun, "Then let the messenger go this way."
Cui Yun nodded, turned around and took the Queen Mother to give oral instructions to the messenger.
Sheng Shaoqing was slightly relieved, "Don't you know the name of my little master?"
The young novice monk had clear eyes and two small dimples on his face when he smiled. He put his hands together as a salute, bowed slightly and said, "The young monk has not yet received a Dharma name. The Queen Mother can just call me Haoqing."
"Then thank you so much, little Master Haoqing."
Hao Qing smiled again, "The Empress Dowager is serious in her words. The Empress Dowager cares about the world and spreads benevolence. It is only right that I, the young monk, can do my best for the Empress Dowager."
Sheng Shaoqing was a little dazed. This little novice monk looked very well-behaved. How could he be more pleasing to the ears than those in the court who praised others and flattered them?
"You mean me?"
Could this little novice have made a mistake?
"That's natural! I heard that Yun Shangshu implemented virtuous governance in Chenliu, returned the land to the people, and enabled ten thousand people to make a living. This is an immeasurable merit!"
After saying this, Hao Qing lowered his head and smiled miserably, "Although my family had fields at first, they couldn't bear the heavy endowment. Later, there were years of famine and there was no food left for the family to live on. My mother cruelly drove me away and asked me to make a living on my own. If it hadn't been for the kindness of my master, I
I took it back to Jingning Temple, and I was afraid that I would also starve to death at home."
"I am lucky, but many people died in the famine."
"I heard that Yun Shangshu came to Chenliu after receiving orders from the Queen Mother. Naturally, the Queen Mother is also a kind and virtuous person. She will be protected by the blessings of my Buddha and live a thousand years without worries!"
Hao Qing's grateful expression was extremely sincere, shining under the bright snow light. This was the first time that Sheng Shaoqing had a real sense of the power he had in his hands. If he thought of becoming a Buddha, all things would come to life; if he thought of becoming a devil, all things would die.
