The mountain gate, the courtyard, the main hall, and the pond were all extremely busy, but as she walked along the road, there were fewer and fewer people.
The fact that she was able to pass through that small door was a privilege she obtained by bribing the young master with pine nut candy.
Since yesterday, the Wen family has been coming to Tianlong Temple every day. They come early in the morning, worship Buddha, burn incense, listen to sutras, and then socialize with other pilgrims, chat, have lunch, and drink tea.
As soon as she arrived, she asked Xiaoji to find out whether the Qi family had arrived.
Yesterday, today, no one came...
Li Jiang was quite capable and had brought back all the information that the Qi family could find out.
Family background, property, population, position, and the Qi family army, etc. Anyway, they are all very impressive, so there is no need to say more.
The key point is that he also found out that Madam Qi seemed to be planning to arrange marriages for her two sons here...
This really shocked Wen Yu. She thought about it over and over but couldn't figure out why. How many noble ladies are there in the capital? With Qi Wu's talent, he is worthy of princesses and princesses! Why would he come to this small place in his hometown to look for someone? She guessed that he was probably looking for someone for the fourth son who was born out of wedlock, and then spread the news.
However, I heard that Madam Qi had a stepmother-in-law who gave birth to a son. So, if the news was true, it was probably because Madam Qi did not want her own son's marriage to be interfered with by the old lady.
Before, although she loved Qi Wu, it was just a girl's sentiment. As for marrying him, she really didn't dare to think about it.
There is a huge gap between the Qi and Wen families! Even if her father was promoted to the capital, he would still be far from being able to do so.
What's more, I am an unloved and motherless eldest daughter...
However, once this door is opened, it can never be closed again.
Let’s not talk about his handsome appearance…
It's the Qi family... marrying into the family and then dealing with the Wen family would be easy and exciting! It's full of benefits, and Wen Yu feels anxious.
But she suddenly thought: What if Madam Qi wants to marry Qi Si, who is a concubine? It is very possible! At least the family background is closer...
If I hadn't met Qi Wu, this would certainly be a good relationship.
But I saw it anyway. No matter how outstanding Qi Si was, how could he catch my eye?
How will I live in the future~~~she thought pretentiously!
What should I do? It's such a sin!
My life is so miserable! These thoughts spun wildly in her mind.
If someone else knew what she was thinking, they would definitely think: This person is crazy! Up to now, this matter has nothing to do with you, why are you entangled? ! The only thing that can add some weight to you is that you saved his cousin! I don’t care! I just want to! Wen Yu grinned foolishly, feeling that since her rebirth, it has been good things from heaven! Today, she sent Qinghe to the old lady's side to see who the old lady contacted. This grandmother should want to take this opportunity to find a home and get rid of herself.
In the past, she really didn’t care too much. If she was not satisfied with the marriage, she would bring her grandfather out to challenge him, and she would make the old man angry to death! !
But now it’s different, I have to think about it.
In the backyard, there is a stone mural on the hillside. On the other side is a forest of stone tablets.
Last year, the old lady actually took her family to the newly built Tianfa Temple. It was large in scale, magnificent in architecture, and the wood used was fragrant. It was very impressive.
However, the murals and stone tablets of Tianlong Temple are far better than those of Tianfa Temple, and even hundreds of years of efforts will not be enough! After carefully looking at the murals, she stood in front of a large stone tablet. This was the inscription of the great calligrapher Mi Zan more than 200 years ago. Every time, she would read it word by word for a long time.
It was so beautiful! Suddenly, a small door on the wall opened slightly.
She knew that outside the walls were some high-end Zen temples, which were rented by dignitaries who came to worship. The pavilions and towers built in those temples were ups and downs, and had a style similar to ancient paintings. Ordinary people were not welcome.
The Wen family is not a decent place to live in.
Perhaps she didn't want people to see her, a girl, standing here alone, so she quickly slipped away and hid in the forest of stone tablets.
His body was hidden, but he curiously poked one eye out and looked over there.
But then a woman came out of the door, supported by a little girl.
As soon as he entered the yard, he turned around and faced the man standing at the door.
Wen Yu didn't see the woman's appearance clearly, but saw the man first. The man seemed to be laughing... and reached out to touch the woman's head.
Then, the girl helped the woman back and walked out.
A single man and a single woman... Wen Yu instinctively felt that this was not a good thing and quickly shrank back.
I heard the sound of the woman coming to my side. Then I heard the sound of a door closing.
The two walked forward, and Wen Yu looked at their backs. When they were almost out of the stone forest, it seemed that a large strand of the woman's hair fell off.
The girl hurriedly reminded her in a low voice, and the two of them stopped to tidy up...
After waiting for a while, he walked away.
Just when she breathed a sigh of relief, there was a sudden sound from the door. Wen Yu quickly stuck to the stone tablet and gathered the hem of her skirt.
There were footsteps, and she felt someone walking to the side of the stone forest. The angle was just right for her to see that he was tall and imposing. He was wearing a black and purple robe, the material was thick and shiny! The man was looking around, and he turned his head sideways. Wen Yu had nowhere to hide, and she saw everything clearly.
May the King of Wu live forever?
Although she had never seen King Wu up close, the cinnabar mole between his eyebrows was very famous.
Plus this outfit, this place...
It must be him!
The man looked a little puzzled, looked around, and whispered, "Zhang Zhong?!"
Wen Yu quickly retracted her body, almost sticking to the stone tablet. She felt her legs were weak, and she had a strong sense of uneasiness in her heart: If he found out... it would be very troublesome.
"Huh?! Zhang Zhong!" A low voice, quite angry.
Wen Yu even held her breath...
She didn't even hear the footsteps, but suddenly someone said, "Master!"
"Where have you been?!" the man was very dissatisfied.
"Master, I deserve to die. I suddenly feel something in my stomach... Please punish me!"
"Hmph..." The man snorted, ignored him and walked out.
Wen Yu was afraid that they would look back after they passed by and see her, so she dodged to the side, but unexpectedly she stepped on a dry branch, which made a slight sound.
Fortunately, her steps were light, and she had already turned to the other side of the tower at the same time as the sound was made.
Standing quietly, not daring to stretch his head out again.
So, she didn't know that although the sound of stepping on branches was small, it was still heard by the man named Zhang Zhong. He turned his head suddenly, but didn't see anyone. He waited for a while, but still no movement.
He wanted to come over to check, but saw that his master had already walked far away. After hesitating for a moment, he still followed him.
The master and servant had not taken two steps when they saw a little girl holding a bouquet of flowers coming over from the other side of the stone tablet.
The man stopped and asked, "What are you doing?"
The little girl was quite polite, "In reply to this gentleman, I am picking flowers for my daughter at home!"
"Oh?! Your girl is here?!"
"My daughter is listening to the sutra in front!"
The man glanced at Zhang Zhong, put his right hand behind his back, and left.
Zhang Zhong looked very honest, and seemed to be walking forward, but suddenly he chopped the little girl's neck. The little girl fell down without making a sound, and Zhang Zhong grabbed her.
He carried it on his shoulders, climbed up the wall in a few steps, and jumped down.
Wen Yu saw it and opened her mouth, almost screaming out.
Before she could react.
The man outside the wall jumped in again, but the girl was gone... He didn't stop, and lightly followed his master.
Wen Yu didn't dare to move, and couldn't move.
That girl...
He killed her?
In the temple...murder? She waited for a long time, until the cold sweat on her body dried up and her legs regained strength.
A little bit of danger can bring you trouble! But why?
She hurried out and passed by the place where the woman had just stopped for plastic surgery. Suddenly, she found a purple object in the cracks between the stones on the ground.
I don't know what I was thinking, I picked it up and put it in my sleeve, not daring to look at it, and walked out the small door directly...
After a while, the little girl who had been supporting the girl returned to her original position, with a very nervous expression, looking around as she walked. She also walked around the place where they were standing to put on their makeup for a long time, even pulling aside the grass to look...
The little girl also didn't see that at the innermost part of the stone tablet forest, behind the broken wall, there stood a beautiful woman in green.
…
At this moment, Wen Yu was almost walking into the crowd and just breathed a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, a hand stretched out from the side and grabbed me...
