If we say that her frequent actions since Qi Minghe entered the house were just because she was suspicious and wanted to test whether Huangfu Yiyu was "Huangfu Yiyu". If Huangfu Yiyu was not "Huangfu Yiyu", then she could
She had reason to kick him out of the house, so she should rest assured... She thought Huangfu Yiyu would die when he got seriously ill two years ago, but she didn't expect him to get better again. Now, she has been waiting
, waiting for an opportunity... But she couldn't wait any longer at this time, she wanted to get rid of him and clean up.
She wanted to pave the way for Mingxuan... and she didn't want to wait any longer.
…
Mr. Pu left, and the lobby became empty again.
"Yiyu, what do you mean by mother-in-law? Are you suddenly asking us to worship our ancestors? Where is that Qiuzu Temple?"
…
"Yiyu?"
Qi Minghe asked a few questions, but suddenly no one responded. He looked up and saw Huangfu Yiyu's deep eyes.
Bai Ling covered her deep evil eyes, but she could feel it.
"What's wrong?"
Huangfu Yiyu moved the corners of his mouth and finally had a reaction.
"Nothing." There was some silence.
Qi Minghe was confused: "I was just...asking you a question, Yiyu, what do you mean by mother-in-law?"
"have no idea."
"I wonder why you agreed just now?"
In her subconscious mind, going to the Three Treasures Hall for any reason would bring bad luck. Moreover, she just said that because she was first married, this time she just put incense and the entrance ceremony together, and even worshiped her ancestors.
It's all a grand affair, even the location has been chosen.
"Yiyu, where is Qiuzu Temple?"
Huangfu Yiyu's slender body moved, and his whole body looked a little unnatural.
"What's wrong with you? Why don't you answer me?"
There was silence for a long while.
"Qiuzu Temple is the ancestral temple of Huangfu Mansion. It has always been a place where only the family members of Huangfu Mansion and the royal relatives in Beijing who have good relations with Huangfu Mansion can go to worship."
"Like Sunset Lake, it is the private property of Huangfu Mansion."
"oh……"
She frowned and looked at him as if she was sensitive: "Yiyu, what are you thinking about?"
Huangfu Yiyu was silent for a few seconds, then slightly pulled the corners of his lips into a playful deep smile: "Is there any?"
Qi Minghe looked at him doubtfully.
Mr. Pu came out of the room early in the morning and said that he was going to worship his ancestors. He was fine when he heard the suggestion just now. He originally had a casual and indifferent attitude. He could worship his ancestors or not, but
Why did she feel that he changed as soon as he heard the name "Yuxi"?
At that moment, his expression became slightly cold, and then he agreed without any suspense.
Now, his reaction...
"Aren't you... worried about what my mother wants to do?"
Or is she the only one worried?
Huangfu Yiyu was motionless at the moment, just standing: "What are you worried about, huh?"
In an instant, the whole person became evil, but this aura seemed to be hiding something.
Qi Minghe noticed it, but felt puzzled: "I heard Qinglian say once before that my mother is very taboo about mentioning your mother's things, but this time she actually mentioned it herself..."
Huangfu Yiyu just turned around and looked at Qi Minghe: "Do you even know this?"
Instantly evil.
Qi Minghe: "..."
We were discussing business, but now we looked up at him and smiled slyly at him: "You refused to tell me, so I did a little research... What, do you still want to settle accounts with me?"
Since we have to settle the accounts, let’s all settle them together... The accounts from last night haven’t been settled yet, have we?
Huangfu Yiyu straightened his figure: "Qi Minghe."
In an instant, he pressed closer and closer.
Qi Minghe felt nervous: "Okay, Yiyu stopped making trouble and is talking about business."
Only then did Huangfu Yiyu straighten his expression.
"Tell me, what on earth do you want to do, mother?"
"Such a proposal was made today." He actually opened his mouth and mentioned Yiyu's mother. So if the rumors are not credible, then... there is something fishy.
"And why does it have to be held at Tszyu Temple?" Is it... just a coincidence?
At this moment, when Qiuzu Temple was mentioned, Huangfu Yiyu's evil eyes under the white silk veil secretly raised another eyebrow.
For a moment, the momentum became a little deeper.
She was even more playful and said something that she seemed to understand but didn't understand: "It is precisely because it is held at Tszyu Temple that I want to go."
Qi Minghe looked at him in a daze, unable to recover for a while.
"Yiyu, please explain..." Explain clearly...
However, at this time, Huangfu Yiyu had already moved his steps, smiled, and walked out...
It seems that he didn't sleep enough, so he needs to go back to his room at this time.
"Yiyu, stop."
No matter how much he shouted, only the evil figure was left behind.
Qi Minghe chased after him in small steps.
…………
After the excitement of the last big wedding, Qi Minghe really saw the ability of Huangfu Mansion this time. He only started to make plans for a grand ancestor worship in the morning. By noon, he could clearly feel that it was a big event.
Many people in the mansion have already started walking around. It feels like the side door of Huangfu Mansion is wide open, and many people have brought something in.
The last time I sat in the pavilion in the courtyard, I looked at the topography of the entire Huangfu Mansion. The lobby, west courtyard, and east courtyard were distributed on a central axis. The large palace behind the atrium, whose purpose was unknown, was continuously sent in for sacrifices.
Things that ancestors need.
In the pavilion.
Qi Minghe was sitting idle and blowing the wind.
"Miss, it turns out that we didn't know until now that the main hall over there is the ancestral temple of Huangfu Mansion, where the ancestral tablets of the ancestors of Huangfu Mansion are placed."
"When I go to worship my ancestors this time, I have to prepare from the inside out, and then I'll take the tablet to Qiuzu Temple to worship, and at the same time, I'll also pay homage to the anniversary of my death..."
"Yeah." Qi Minghe listened absently.
The cool breeze is blowing at this time, and it will look like this after autumn gradually enters.
I'm still thinking about what the Pu family wants to do, but I really can't think of it. Maybe it's just an ordinary ancestor worship?
And Yiyu’s reaction to Qiuzu Temple and the word “Yuxi”...
"Miss?" Qinglian felt deeply that she had been ignored.
"Ah?" Coming back to his senses...
Qinglian: "..."
"Forget it, miss, just keep sitting, I'm going to help."
The entire Huangfu Mansion was preparing in full swing.
Because it is a century-old mansion, the rules are strict and the financial resources are huge, so this matter of ancestor worship cannot be taken lightly. Since it has to be done on a grand scale, if it is done well, the heroic spirits of the ancestors are in heaven to protect it. If it is not done well, then
It means losing the face of Huangfu Mansion.
Naturally, people outside the palace are always paying attention to such a big move. They are offering sacrifices to their ancestors, and they even do it occasionally to show off the reputation of Huangfu Palace.
"The Qiuzu Temple is located on Qiu Mountain outside the city. It is a place that is as famous as the Daqing Temple. It has been worshiped in the Huangfu Mansion for hundreds of years. The reason why our mansion is always so peaceful and the Huangfu clan is able to produce talents in large numbers is because of the blessing of this ancestral temple.
.”
"Yes, it is said that the old man liked to go to Tszyu Temple the most during his lifetime, which is why Tszyu Temple is so famous. But I went there once a few years ago, and the scenery of Tszyu Temple is really good. Finally, I can
Let’s go again.”
Not far away, two or three maids were arranging funeral flowers and chatting.
This voice faintly reached Qi Minghe's ears, and he listened for a while...
Okay, that's the case.
There was an inexplicable and vague expectation in my heart.
There were only five days between the proposal of ancestor worship and the death anniversary of Huangfu Lianzheng, August 22nd.
During these five days, the entire Huangfu Mansion was extremely lively, even more lively than the incense gathering party. By August 21, everything for ancestor worship in the mansion was ready.
The animals for sacrifice, the jade handle pendants, the customs left over from the Spring and Autumn Period, and the white thatch used to communicate with the gods are all neatly kept in the mansion, waiting to be sent out of the mansion together when it is time to worship the ancestors, all the way from the ancestral temple to the Qiuzu temple.
Incense is used as well as a grand entrance ceremony, prayers for children and blessings.
The time for worshiping ancestors is chosen to be at Chen hour, starting with the light of morning light. This is not only the best time to connect with the gods, but also makes it more solemn.
With the arrival of ancestor worship, the atmosphere of worship in the mansion was intense. Thinking that it was Pu who came to mention this matter out of nowhere, Qi Minghe felt uneasy.
Huangfu Yiyu was even more casual, as if the matter didn't exist.
However, sitting on the soft couch in the room at this moment, the clivia outside the window has already withered a lot.
He lowered his eyes and looked like he was taking a languid nap. He put his hand on the armrest of the soft couch and tapped it again and again.
Qi Minghe suddenly stood still in the room, looking at him like this, frowning slightly.
"Miss, Uncle Huangfu, are you here?"
Qinglian suddenly came in from outside at this moment. Since the door was open, she didn't knock on it and stepped in directly.
Suddenly, stopped.
"Miss……"
At this moment, Qi Minghe suddenly looked away from Huangfu Yiyu: "Qinglian, what's wrong?"
Huangfu Yiyu suddenly opened his evil eyes and looked at Bai Ling calmly.
"What?" He seemed to be more sensitive than usual.
Qinglian faced Qi Minghe and was suddenly frightened by Huangfu Yiyu's voice on the other side of the couch. She slowed down and regained her composure.
"No, it's nothing... It's just Miss, I was ordered to deliver some things. I'm going to worship the ancestors tomorrow, so the house arranged for the steward of the ancestor worship and ordered me to send some spices. I said they were delivered. Miss, you can
knew."
"What?" Qi Minghe was cautious.
"That's it..."
Qinglian took out a box from her arms and opened it. There were several fragrant herbs inside, and a faint fragrance came out.
"Mugwort mugwort?"
Qi Minghe has always been sensitive to scents, and he guessed it right now before he actually saw the real thing.
Huangfu Yiyu frowned slightly and pulled his lips.
"Yes, it means that I went to worship my ancestors when I was young. According to the rules, before entering the ancestral temple and when going to Qiuzong Temple, I must purify myself in advance. First, bathe with mugwort and mugwort leaves and burn incense."
