Chapter 155: Tell me, Xiao Qingwei, what do you want from me?
In the side hall of Princess Pingyang's mansion in Yongchangfang, one can faintly hear the sound of water, the sound of jingling rings, the footsteps of some women walking back and forth, and the sounds of laughter...
The princess's daughter-in-law, Ma Sixi, was standing outside the door of the side hall with a serious look on her face and her eyes were not squinting.
"Pindao remembers what is said in Shishuo Xinyu: Ruan Ji's neighbor had a pretty young woman, so she drank wine. Ji tasted the drink, and when she got drunk, she lay down on her side."
A little Taoist priest dressed in white sat in the courtyard outside the side hall with a relaxed expression on his face. He looked at Ma Sixi from a distance with a teasing smile on his face. "Like Ruan Ji and his family Ling, facing each other across the curtain, their voices
Those who look and hear, listen to the sound of the falling hairpin and still not think about it, think it is not foolishness, but they are wise, but I don’t know if Ma Jialing makes you think this is foolishness or wisdom?"
"Qingwei, don't talk nonsense..."
Hearing the words of the little Taoist priest in white, Ma Sixi glanced into the side hall with some guilt, as if he could see something inside.
"I am guarding here just to prevent other people from breaking in while Sanniang is having a spa treatment and spoiling Sanniang's interest. Also, I am always waiting for Sanniang to give orders when she has something to do. I am facing the other side of the curtain as you said.
, the sound, appearance and hearing have nothing to do with each other.”
"Hahaha……"
The Taoist priest in white smiled and waved to Ma Sixi, stroking the little kitten in his arms happily with his hands.
"Don't be so nervous, family leader. There is only one Pindao in the whole courtyard. As for giving orders, if Sanniang has something to do, a maid will naturally come to inform you. There is no need to stand at Sanniang's door. Come here.
, sit here!"
After hearing what Kong Qing said, Ma Sixi carefully listened to the movement in the side hall, and then tiptoed to sit on the stone bench next to Kong Qing.
"now it's right……"
Kong Qing smiled and took out a golden round 'gold coin' and handed it over.
"If I follow you too closely, my wife might think you have other ideas. Come on, take a rest!"
"Hmph...is that someone like that?"
Ma Sixi snorted, took the 'gold coin' from Kong Qing's hand, peeled it open with familiarity, put it to his mouth and took a bite. After chewing it for a few times, he put his head over again and whispered
Speaking of.
"Qingwei, do you think the Third Lady really thinks that I had other thoughts when I was standing by the door just now..."
"That's for sure!"
Kong Qing raised the corners of his mouth slightly and stroked the kitten's fur with his hands. The kitten turned over comfortably.
"Those who can hear sounds without thinking, are not crazy and are wise. But the problem is that most people in this world are neither crazy nor wise! Do you think Sanniang will feel that you are blocking the door?
Is it madness, wisdom, or is it neither madness nor wisdom?"
Ma Sixi stopped eating the chocolate instantly. After a while, he raised his hand and gave himself a mouthful.
At this moment, the door to the side hall opened with a creak, and Li Xiuning, newly dressed in palace clothes and with a rosy complexion, stepped out of the door, followed by Twenty Niang and Twenty Four Niang.
Two little foxes.
A gust of wind blew by, and a scent of lavender floated from Li Xiuning's body.
Whoosh!
Ma Sixi's body bounced up reflexively.
But Li Xiuning just nodded towards him slightly, then turned to look at Kong Qing.
"Well, Xiao Qingwei, the gift you sent this time is very nice, I like it very much."
"Sanniangzi has been thinking too much during this period, which has led to loss of vitality and lack of energy..."
Kong Qing stood up calmly and bowed to Li Xiuning. "Spa therapy and essential oil massage can relax your mind, so it can be regarded as the right medicine for Sanniang."
"Well, it is indeed very effective..."
Li Xiuning brushed her long, moist hair with her hands and said in a tone that left no room for doubt.
"The shampoo and shower gel they used this time..."
She turned to look at the little fox Niang Niang standing next to her.
"What else is that?"
"Conditioner and essential oil." Twenty Niang replied weakly from the side.
"Yes, conditioner and essential oil..."
With that said, Li Xiuning looked at Kong Qing again.
"You should have gotten these things from the people in Fang Xiandao, right? Bring me a bottle! It just so happens that I have to get together with some of my sisters in a few days..."
With that said, Li Xiuning turned to look at Twenty Niangs and the others.
"By the way, I will have someone go to the West City to pick you up when the time comes..."
"promise!"
The two search foxes nodded obediently in agreement.
"Third Lady..."
Kong Qing's face showed a look of embarrassment.
"Those shampoos and conditioners are okay, but those essential oils are said to be extracted from flower petals. Even tens of thousands of kilograms of petals may not be able to extract a large bottle."
"It doesn't matter..."
Li Xiuning waved her hand and said domineeringly.
"How much money do you need? Xiao Qingwei, go and tell Sixi!"
"Actually, they are not short of money either..."
Kong Qing hesitated for a while before agreeing.
"But since Sanniang needs it, even if Pindao robs their inventory, he will still do it for Sanniang."
After hearing Kong Qing's words, Li Xiuning showed a victorious smile on his face, and then impatiently brushed his hair that was not dry yet.
"Vilya!"
Kong Qing raised his hand, and the blue gem on his finger flashed slightly.
A gentle stream of air appeared next to Li Xiuning, rolling up the long black hair behind her, blowing it up and down, like a gentle little hand, quickly blowing the damp hair dry.
"I didn't expect you, Xiao Qingwei, to be so powerful now..."
Li Xiuning touched her long black and shiny hair with her hands and said with a look of surprise.
"Is this the method of true cultivation after establishing the foundation and entering the Tao?"
"It's just a small trick..."
Kong Qing bent down very humbly and said to Li Xiuning.
"This is a small way for me to repay your love, Third Lady."
"haha……"
After hearing Kong Qing's words, Li Xiuning seemed to be in a very good mood. She reached out and patted Kong Qing's head lovingly.
"This is a spa treatment, shampoo and...that oil, and helping me blow dry my hair. Xiao Qingwei, do you have anything else to ask of me?"
Kong Qing blinked silently!
It turns out that in Princess Pingyang’s heart, is she such a realistic person?
The person who is obviously a poor person is an extraordinary Taoist master!
"Hahaha……"
After seeing that Kong Qing was stunned because of her words, Li Xiuning covered her mouth with her hands and laughed happily. While laughing, she rubbed Kong Qing's head again.
"Well, because Xiao Qingwei is so considerate this time, no matter what Xiao Qingwei you want to do, I will do this for you, okay?"
"actually……"
Kong Qing raised his head silently.
"What Pindao is talking about this time is for the sake of the country and the country of the Tang Dynasty. He is just worried that dragons and snakes are mixed up in other places. Once the news leaks out, they will be alerted, so I came to you, Sanniang."
"For my country and country of the Tang Dynasty?"
Seeing Kong Qing's serious face, Li Xiuning almost laughed again.
"Okay, then Xiao Qingwei, tell me, what exactly is it that threatens the country of the Tang Dynasty?"
Kong Qing took a step forward, lowered his voice to a level that could only be heard by Princess Pingyang and Ma Sixi, not even the search fox next to him, and whispered.
"Pindao has reliable evidence that the Fahua Sect has colluded with Li Zitong and is trying to take advantage of King Qin's departure from Jiangnan with Du Fuwei to set off a rebellion in the Jianghuai area to restore Li Zitong's country...
…”
"What?"
She didn't expect that what Kong Qing said was such a big thing, and Li Xiuning felt a little surprised.
"How is it possible? The Fahua Sect has always been submissive..."
"It's all an illusion!"
Kong Qing made a conclusion about Fahua Sect without hesitation.
"In fact, these thieves and monks have been secretly dreaming of influencing the government and establishing a Buddhist kingdom on earth. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, they almost achieved this dream. However, with the leadership of today's saints, the Li family of Longxi, who is a descendant of Laojun Miao,
After the chaos was brought to an end, these thieves and monks have been trying to counterattack..."
"Okay, Xiao Qingwei, you don't need to say anything!"
Li Xiuning put one hand on her forehead and waved her hand feebly.
"Just tell me what evidence you have."
"There is too much evidence...First of all, this matter was discovered by Pindao because of a man named Kong Ke. He was the secretary of Wei Yunqi, the general manager of Suizhou, and joined the army..."
With that said, Kong Qing vividly told Li Xiuning how Kong Ke had been possessed by others, and then the next day he began to summon monks and nuns to confess with great fanfare. As a result, the officials of Suizhou Jinxiu Academy saw something was wrong and notified Taishi.
Bureau, and how he went through careful investigation and repeated research and judgment, and finally captured the ghosts and monks who secretly captured souls and set up court without permission in Jinggongfang.
"Those ghosts and monks pretending to be gods are now locked up in the Taishi Bureau. Sanniang can go and ask."
"It is true that a monk who casually seizes souls deserves to die, but what does this have to do with Li Zitong?"
Li Xiuning asked with some confusion.
"That's because Kong Ke was possessed to death. In fact, these monks were trying to cover up the meeting between Monk Yifan, a distinguished monk of the Fahua Sect, and Li Zitong at Li Duanduan's flower house in Pingkangfang, but Kong Ke accidentally broke into it.
, the act of killing people and silencing them."
Kong Qing continued to speak confidently.
"If you don't believe it, Sanniang, you can go check it out. Two days before Kong Ke was captured, that is, on the 9th, Li Zitong was in Li Duanduan's elegant room at No. 3 Tianzi, Hualou, and at that time Kong Ke
It just so happened that we were hosting a banquet at Li Duanduan’s flower house for Kuang Xiaoyan, a doctor from the Ministry of War.”
"Then how did you find out about this?"
Li Xiuning's eyes narrowed, like a feline about to attack.
"Xiao Qingwei, have you also gone to that beautiful flower house in Pingkangfang?"
"How is that possible..."
After seeing the look in Sanniangzi's eyes, Kong Qing immediately straightened his chest and spoke righteously.
"Pindao is a serious person, how could he go to Pingkangfang to see a child...Pindao sent a ranger named Iron Monkey from the West City to find out. If you don't believe me, Sanniang, you can go and check..."
etc!
Kong Qing blinked silently!
Why does this scene look so much like interrogating a scumbag...
Pindao, such a noble scholar, why do you want to
"Is that really what happened?"
After staring for a while, Li Xiuning confirmed that Kong Qing was indeed righteous, and nodded, somewhat believing Kong Qing's words.
"And I have received reliable information..."
Kong Qing looked serious and spoke his inference as reliable news without blushing.
"When King Qin and Du Fuwei enter Chang'an, Fahua Sect will send Li Zitong to leave Chang'an and return to Jianghuai to cause trouble."
Li Xiuning gently stroked her forehead with her hand.
"So Xiao Qingwei, you came to me, what do you want me to do? Go tell Aye to arrest Li Zitong..."
"That's definitely not possible. If we arrest him now, Li Zitong will definitely not admit it, so we still have to wait for him to take action."
Kong Qing waved his hand, and a rectangular bulge immediately rose up from the ground.
"Assuming this is Chang'an City, then Sanniang, do you think that if Li Zitong wanted to escape Chang'an and go to Jianghuai, which way would he take?"
Li Xiuning pointed her finger without hesitation.
"Lantian!"
"Yes, Pindao thinks so too."
Kong Qing hooked his finger, and Lantian's position also protruded from the ground. Then he hooked twice more, and two more places popped up next to Lantian.
"But to be on the safe side, we might as well assume that Li Zitong and the others may also come here..."
Li Xiuning looked at the map on the ground and nodded slightly.
"What Pindao wants Sanniangzi to do is to control these three places. Then Pindao will continue to track Monk Yifan and Li Zitong during this period. After they escape Chang'an, he will catch them all!"
"good!"
After Li Xiuning thought about it again, he nodded.
