Chapter 148: Tianming Pavilion Incident - Hairpin
Xiao Changheng nodded:
"Have you had dinner yet? Together?"
Yun Qingqing knew that he was not just here to have dinner, but might have something to say, so she agreed.
The two of them had their meal quietly.
Xiao Changheng poured her a cup of tea. She took it and took a sip. The fragrance of the tea filled her mouth. It was a rare tribute even in the imperial palace.
"The northwest border is unstable, so I have to go to the army for some time." The man's magnetic voice sounded.
Yun Qingqing was slightly stunned, then nodded:
"knew."
"..." Xiao Changheng paused, pursed his lips and said, "Is that all?"
Yun Qingqing thought for a moment:
"When do we leave?"
"Early tomorrow morning."
"Well, be careful on the road."
Xiao Changheng: "..."
Could you be any more heartless?
"Is this what you want to talk about? Then I'll go back."
Yun·Heartless·Qingqing stood up and was about to leave.
"etc."
A certain prince gritted his teeth, but still suppressed the urge to ignore her.
"I've found all the medicine for the leg. Can we start when I get back?"
Yun Qingqing's eyes lit up:
"That's right. Please have the medicine delivered to my hospital. I'll prepare it first and treat you as soon as you come back."
He has to go back and forth to the border and handle military affairs there, so it will take at least two months for him to come back.
Judging from the current progress, her spiritual power should be enough to deal with the curse on his leg by then, so Yun Qingqing agreed without hesitation.
As long as his leg is cured, he can leave the house and find a secluded place to concentrate on practicing.
Thinking of this, she felt very happy and said with a smile:
"Then I wish you a smooth trip to the northwest and a speedy return."
Xiao Changheng: ...
This woman was in such a good mood that he seriously suspected she was thinking about divorce.
A certain prince watched Yun Qingqing leave with a dark face.
Nan Zheng asked curiously:
"Didn't the prince give a strict order not to tell the princess that the medicine was ready? Why did he suddenly tell her again?"
He was still happy that the prince had now come to his senses and was willing to treat his leg.
Xiao Changheng ignored him and went straight into the study.
After sending all the servants away, he sighed softly.
The scene in Jing Kingdom when the giant elephant went crazy and was at the critical moment appeared in front of his eyes again.
Only he himself knew the palpitations and panic he felt at that moment.
If he could have stood up at that time, he would never have let her fall into such danger.
It was at that time that he made up his mind that the treatment of his leg could not be delayed any longer.
…
After Xiao Changheng left Beijing, Yun Qingqing went to Tianming Pavilion as usual.
When no one was around, she would meditate and regulate her breathing and spiritual power. She had already become accustomed to these exercises in her previous life, and she could sit for hours without any pressure at all.
However, recently more and more people have known about Tianming Pavilion, and two or three customers come to the door every day. Yun Qingqing is happy to be busy. After all, collecting the wishes of believers can increase spiritual power much faster than meditating.
The copper bell rang, and this time three people came in, two women and one man.
The two young girls wore the same style of green dress, had similar body shapes and hairstyles, and even wore the same hairpins on their heads.
If it weren't for their different appearances, one would almost think they were twins.
The man was elegant and polite, standing between the two girls, looking like a gentleman of honor.
Several people sat down in the divination room and reported their names.
The girl with an oval face and single phoenix eyes is named Zhao Yuling, and the girl with a melon-seed face and doe eyes is named Zheng Fangfang. They are best friends who grew up wearing the same pants.
The man's name was Yang Tong, Zheng Fangfang's fiancé. He was sitting opposite her, staring at Yun Qingqing with his eyes fixed on her.
Yun Qingqing looked at Zheng Fangfang and narrowed her eyes slightly.
"What do you want to do here?" She asked Zheng Fangfang.
Zheng Fangfang smiled and shook her head:
"It's not that I want a fortune-teller. It's Ling'er who saw the notice outside the store and thought it was interesting, so she insisted on having one."
Zhao Yuling smiled innocently:
"Yeah, it's the first time I've seen a store where only those with a predestined relationship can enter. Of course I wanted to see what it's all about."
"How did Pavilion Master know if we were destined to be together? If we weren't, would you still be blocking us from entering?"
Yun Qingqing smiled calmly:
"You are indeed destined to come to my Tianming Pavilion."
As for whether this fate is good or bad, it is hard to say.
"So, what do you want to calculate?" she asked Zhao Yulin.
Zhao Yuling's face flushed, she pursed her lips and smiled shyly:
"I want to calculate my marriage."
"Yes, one tael of silver will count as one time."
Zhao Yuling paused:
"Is it so expensive? Otherwise..."
She looked hesitant and didn't continue.
"Hey, now that you're here, it's just one or two taels of silver. I have it here! I also want to hear what this fairy-like Pavilion Master has to say about it." Zheng Fangfang smiled and took out one or two taels of silver.
"How can I do this..." Zhao Yuling hesitated.
Yang Tong spoke:
"Sister Yuling, you and Fangfang have been sisters for many years. It's only natural for her to help you. Why are you being so polite?"
Yun Qingqing raised her eyebrows slightly.
But Zheng Fangfang didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said, and instead agreed with him and said:
"That's right, why are you being so polite to me? I also want to see when you can find your ideal husband."
"Well... okay, Fangfang, you are really my good sister!" Zhao Yuling nodded and agreed with a smile.
Yun Qingqing put away the silver, pondered for a moment, and smiled at Zhao Yuling.
"You have a sweetheart now."
As soon as the words fell, Zheng Fangfang widened her eyes and turned to look at Zhao Yuling:
"Eh? Really?"
Zhao Yuling's eyes sparkled and her cheeks blushed as she nodded.
"Well, you little girl actually managed to hide this from me!" Zheng Fangfang said angrily, "Come on, confess! Which young man has our Ling'er taken a fancy to?"
Zhao Yuling covered her lips and smiled:
"Oh, that's annoying! I don't want to talk about it now. Let's wait until there's a result!"
As she spoke, she looked at Yun Qingqing expectantly:
"Then Pavilion Master, can you please calculate whether my marriage will be successful and whether I can get what I want?"
Yun Qingqing smiled coldly:
"Your relationship is built on deception and evil deeds. Even if you are together, it will not end well."
"However, in order to avoid causing harm to others, I suggest that you lock it up."
Zhao Yuling's expression changed, and she hesitated:
"W-What do you mean?!"
Zheng Fangfang also showed an angry expression after hearing this, but before she could ask any questions, Yang Tong beside her slammed the table and stood up:
"You, woman, are using the name of fortune-telling to slander and curse others with empty words. I think you are clearly a fraud!"
"We don't count it, give us your money back!"
Yun Qingqing's expression remained calm as she looked at him steadily and smiled faintly:
"You're so sure I'm slandering her. Do you know who her sweetheart is? Do you know what his character is like?"
"It seems that you are very familiar with that person. Otherwise, I am clearly talking about her marriage, so why are you so anxious?"
Yang Tong's face froze, and he suddenly looked away guiltily.
"I just couldn't bear to see Sister Ling'er being slandered by you for no reason, so I stood up for her. Why is that not okay?"
Zheng Fangfang took Zhao Yuling's hand and stood up suddenly:
"People are just asking for good luck in marriage, and they don't expect you to be accurate. But no one is like you! You can't even say auspicious words, and you curse me in all sorts of ways. You're too much!"
Yun Qingqing said calmly:
"I'm here to tell the truth. This isn't a place where you can get paid to say auspicious things. If you want to be fooled, you've come to the wrong person."
She glanced at Zhao Yuling and Yang Tong with a meaningful look on her face:
"Whether my calculations are accurate or not, the person involved should know best. Do you need me to provide proof?"
The two of them looked at each other subconsciously, then immediately looked away.
Zhao Yuling bit her lip and said with red eyes:
"I don't know why you have such strong malice towards me, just a chance encounter! I am unlucky. I shouldn't have set foot in here today!"
"Fangfang, let's go!" She pulled Zheng Fangfang and was about to leave.
"No!" Zheng Fangfang grabbed her and said angrily, "Why should she bully you like this? We're leaving without even an explanation!"
She glared at Yun Qingqing:
"I want to see how you can prove what you said. If you can't make a good argument today, not only will you have to return the money to me, but you will also have to apologize to Ling'er!"
"Otherwise I will report you to the police and punish you for running this den of frauds!"
