Chapter 435 The Planner
Shen Lingyi hurriedly left, using the excuse that she felt a little unwell and wanted to go to the Zen room to rest. Before she left, Qiao Wanyan clearly saw a look of excitement and anticipation on her face.
People still need to see the world and have more experience. Even if they don't have any, they still need to be taught by an experienced elder.
Otherwise, she would end up like Shen Lingyi.
After being fooled by others, I still have to thank myself.
It’s a waste of her identity as the Prime Minister’s granddaughter.
Zi Yuan: "Miss, what should we do next?"
Qiao Wanyan was in a surprisingly good mood: "How to do it?"
She paused and laughed, "Let's have a vegetarian meal, walk around the back mountain, and wait for the show."
The news of Qiao Wanyan's arrival reached Jingxin's ears. Jingxin knew that Qiao Yihuan had come but did not take the initiative to greet her. Instead, she took the initiative to look for Qiao Wanyan after knowing that she had come.
When Jingxin saw her, Qiao Wanyan was waving a whip to hit Wangyou, but Wangyou was agile and nimble, and ran away in a flash.
"The second young lady is really skilled." Jingxin said with a hint of sarcasm.
Qiao Wanyan looked back and said with a smile, "Nonsense."
Jingxin was already used to her domineering attitude. "Why did the Second Miss come to the National Temple? Logically speaking, the Second Miss with such a personality should not believe in gods and Buddhas."
Qiao Wanyan handed the whip to Ziyuan, "Today is the day when the poison takes effect. You didn't ask me to come, but I came naturally. After all, this is a matter of life and death, how can I be so cold-blooded?"
Jingxin smiled and said, "Second Miss, you are really kind."
Qiao Wanyan: “Nonsense.”
Jing Xin said: "Second Miss, you won't give me the antidote today, right? I've pissed off Second Miss, and she must be wishing I was dead now."
Qiao Wanyan: "You are so calm, you must have got the antidote, so you dare to promote Qiao Yihuan to a high position so unscrupulously. I wonder which capable person can actually cure the poison?"
He looked at her for a long time, "There are always talented people around Princess Changle."
Qiao Wanyan was silent for a moment, "Is it the Taoist priest who had contact with Qiao Yihuan outside the palace?"
Jingxin smiled without saying anything, but the answer was obvious.
Now the alchemist is in the palace, beside the emperor.
Qiao Wanyan: "Sure enough, otherwise you wouldn't be so brave as to seek death like this."
Jing Xin said, "Looking for death? The Second Miss killed my master and used poison to restrain me. How could I not take revenge?"
Qiao Wanyan pretended not to understand, "Kill your master? What else can Abbot Jingxin say? What evidence do you have? Without evidence, it's just slander."
If Jingxin had evidence, why would he play this trick on himself?
Liu Yanran told him that if there was evidence, Qiao Yihuan would have been uneasy and would have reported him long ago.
"You and I both know whether it is or not."
Qiao Wanyan sneered, "If you want to take revenge on someone, you should kill them with one blow. Boiling a frog in warm water is really not a good strategy."
After she finished speaking, she walked closer. Although she was a head shorter than him, her aura was no less than his.
"We'll slowly settle this account!"
After saying that, she turned and left.
Jingxin watched her back disappear from his sight. She followed Qiao Yihuan to Guo Temple. People like her would not sit still and wait for death. They would definitely do something secretly.
Just keeping an eye on her will be enough.
Qiao Yihuan came to Guo Temple to hide from Lu Gousheng, so naturally he had to stay for a few days.
Shen Lingyi naturally also lived in the Zen room with her spare clothes, and went to her place with her maid at night.
"I'm bored so I came to talk to the county lady. I hope the county lady won't be annoyed with me?"
Qiao Yihuan smiled and said, "How could that be? It just so happens that I can't sleep either, so it's just right that you came and talked to me."
Shen Lingyi said, "I heard that the county lady's sister is here too, why didn't she come over to talk with you?"
Qiao Yihuan sighed helplessly, "Wanyan is a bit arrogant. She thinks I am not from the same mother as her, so she always looks down on me. She would take away everything I have, so why would she take the initiative to talk to me now?"
Shen Lingyi frowned, "I know she has a vicious temperament, but she doesn't want to behave like this to all her sisters. It's really shocking."
Qiao Yihuan raised a bitter smile. She had heard that Qiao Wanyan and Shen Lingyi had a bad relationship.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Wanyan is just like that. I'll just stay away from her."
Shen Lingyi asked with concern: "Then Minister Qiao doesn't care either?"
Qiao Yihuan lowered her eyes, "Father and mother doted on Wanyan, otherwise Wanyan wouldn't have grown up to have such a personality. Although I have Qiao family blood in my body, I am a dispensable person."
Shen Lingyi looked a little distressed, and sneered in her heart.
But she is a concubine's daughter, and born to a concubine out of wedlock.
Is it dispensable? If Qiao Yihuan was his sister, he would be kind if he didn't kill her.
You still want to climb over my head? Dream on!
Qiao Yihuan continued, "I heard that you and Wan Yan had an argument at Huibao Tower before?"
Shen Lingyi nodded.
Qiao Yihuan said: "Wan Yan is just like that. Don't bother with her. I apologize to you on her behalf. I hope you don't take it to heart."
Shen Lingyi lowered her eyes, "You are such a good person, you must have suffered a lot of grievances in the past, right? Fortunately, you are the county lord now, I am afraid that no one will dare to bully you in the future."
Although Shen Lingyi was being polite, she didn't know that Qiao Yihuan was the county lord, and Qiao Wanyan still didn't get used to it.
In the Qiao family, even if she is a princess, she cannot surpass Qiao Wanyan.
"Qiao Wanyan has offended me. I will definitely make her pay in the future! This is my revenge, and it is also to vent your anger!"
Qiao Yihuan was delighted, thinking that there was no harm in getting closer to her.
Look, my sister has a new enemy.
Shen Lingyi picked up the teacup and took a sip, "Why is this tea so unpalatable? It's simply unpalatable!"
Qiao Yihuan also felt that it was a little bland. "This is not important in the temple. Just drink it for what it is. When we return to Beijing, I will treat you to better tea."
Shen Lingyi said: "The county lady is of noble status, how can she make do with it? I am very particular about tea. I always bring tea with me when I go out in case I am not used to it. A while ago, my brother gave me some pre-rain Longjing tea. Let's try it together?"
After saying this, without waiting for Qiao Yihuan to speak, she saw Shen Lingyi sending Chu Lu back to get the tea leaves.
The tea was brought back and was brewed by Qiao Yihuan himself.
As if to show that he was no problem at all, Qiao Yihuan brewed tea slowly and leisurely, with every move being very particular.
But in Shen Lingyi's eyes, she did not find her elegance in her attention to detail. Instead, she cursed her inwardly for being so slow. What was the point of pretending to make tea for her?
Qiao Yihuan poured two cups of tea herself, and pushed one cup in front of Shen Lingyi, smiling gently.
"Try it. Even though the cooking is not very good, it's still edible."
Shen Lingyi looked at the cup of tea in front of her, which was still steaming.
