Chapter 318 The Concubine of the Imperial Prince 26
Lian Cui and Lian Yu also relaxed when they saw that Qi Baoying didn't take it seriously at all.
Taking the menu written by Qi Baoying, he walked out.
After dinner, Qi Baoying took Lian Yu straight to the small Buddhist temple.
This small Buddhist temple is basically just for show. Since other people's houses have one, the Anfeng Palace naturally must have one, so there is such a place.
After arriving at the small Buddhist temple, Qi Baoying left Lian Yu outside and went into the temple alone.
The old princess and Zheng Xueyi in the palace were overjoyed when they heard that Qi Baoying had gone to the small Buddhist temple to kneel and recite scriptures.
Ever since Qi Baoying entered the mansion, she has been like a piece of meat on a rolling pin. No one can get the upper hand over her.
This time, they asked her to kneel down and pray to the prince for legitimate reasons. No matter how they put it, they were right.
Although Qi Baoying's suffering was not too severe, at least she could vent a little.
Qi Baoying was the only one in the small Buddhist temple, and Lian Yu was guarding the door. Qi Baoying had hypnotized Lian Cui and Lian Yu a long time ago, and they were both absolutely loyal.
It was still early, so Qi Baoying took out a recliner from the space and placed it in the corner of the small Buddhist hall.
After lying on the recliner, I smelled the faint sandalwood scent in the Buddhist hall and took a comfortable nap.
About half an hour later, Qi Baoying opened her eyes and scanned the entire mansion with her spiritual sense. Everyone in the mansion was now in their own courtyard, some distance away from here.
Stand up and put away the recliner. It's almost time now.
Qi Baoying picked up the candle on the altar and started lighting it in the Buddhist hall without saying a word.
First, the altar cloth and tablecloth were set on fire, then everything in the temple that had anything to do with cloth was set on fire, and finally the lamp oil was spilled.
In an instant, the oil fueled the fire, and the Buddha altar and the offering table were engulfed in flames in the blink of an eye. The fire quickly spread throughout the small Buddhist hall.
Seeing the flames coming out of the small Buddhist temple, Lian Yu shouted "Auntie" in panic and opened the door of the small Buddhist temple in a panic.
What he saw was Qi Baoying throwing the candlestick in her hand into the fire. Lian Yu instantly understood that the fire was started by his master.
Lian Yu was no longer anxious this time and asked, "Auntie, what should we do next?"
Qi Baoying looked at the fire and said, "Let's go out. This place is closest to the old princess's yard. Go to the old princess and ask her to send someone to put out the fire!"
You act panicky and reckless.
The old princess will most likely not see you.
You act extremely anxious, like the old princess is so anxious that she can't even speak clearly because she doesn't want to see you.
Let everyone see that you are anxious, and then you go find the princess again.
The princess will definitely meet you just to see my fun.
You told the princess that the small Buddhist temple was on fire, and you went to the old lady's yard nearby to ask for help, but you didn't see the old princess.
There was no other way but to run so far to ask the princess to send people to put out the fire.
You can be a little embarrassed along the way, and try to let as many people see you looking for someone to take charge."
Lian Yu immediately understood what Qi Baoying meant.
The fire must be put out, but the rescue time must be delayed as much as possible.
They wanted everyone to know that the master and servant were looking for someone to put out the fire, but they couldn't find the person in charge.
After understanding Qi Baoying's meaning, Lian Yu smeared some ash on her face and body, and burned two holes in the hem of her skirt.
"Auntie, please be careful and don't hurt yourself. I'll go right away."
Qi Baoying watched Lian Yu walk out of the Buddhist hall, and she herself became a little embarrassed, then walked out of the Buddhist hall.
He picked up the bucket in the yard, filled a few buckets of water from the fireproof vat and sprinkled them on the ground, creating the illusion of carrying water back and forth.
At the same time, she did not forget to sprinkle some water on the hem of her skirt. The whole picture looked like Qi Baoying was trying to put out the fire alone.
The old princess will definitely not meet Lian Yu.
Her arrogant character clearly showed that their Anfeng Palace was plotting to let Qi Baoying into the palace. They also looked down on Qi Baoying because she was just a concubine and felt that Qi Baoying was not qualified to meet her, let alone a concubine's maid, who was even less qualified to see her.
The old princess must be thinking in her heart that Qi Baoying has no idea about all this and that it is all her, the old princess, who is behind all this.
Qi Baoying sent someone to find her at this time because she wanted to take this opportunity to make trouble for Zheng Xueyi, saying that Zheng Xueyi treated the concubine harshly so that the old princess could punish Zheng Xueyi.
The house fighting in the harem is always based on these tricks, and any normal person would think in this direction.
The women in the harem are particularly concerned about the opinions of the master of the house, so they often use some small tricks like self-torture. This is very normal.
In the old princess's mind, most of Qi Baoying's people who came to find her now would use the same method.
But Qi Baoying doesn't care about the people in Anfeng Palace at all. What do your thoughts have to do with her?
What she wants to do is to make those people suffer losses if they want to take advantage of her.
The previous food allowance was, and the same is true for the small Buddhist hall this time.
Isn't this a disguised punishment? Okay, then I'll destroy your yard this time.
It's not a big deal to just leave the burnt yard there.
Even though this small Buddhist temple is remote, the burnt smell can be smelled from far away.
If you want to build this yard, you have to spend money.
Considering the usual spending habits of the Anfeng Palace, this is another huge sum of money.
See if you feel sorry for it.
Afterwards, Qi Baoying would at most receive some punishment, plus Xiao Tianshuo's neglect.
But Qi Baoying doesn't care about Xiao Tianshuo at all, and these will not affect her at all.
What else could there be as a punishment in the backyard? Isn't it just the three-piece set of kneeling, copying books and house arrest?
Who is afraid of whom?
To be honest, it would be better if he was really under house arrest and had to live his life behind closed doors. By then, the mansion would be out of money. I don’t know if it would be Qi Baoying or the masters of the Anfeng Palace who would be worried.
After a while, Qi Baoying saw in her spiritual consciousness that some servants had already discovered the fire here and were rushing over here.
In the main courtyard in the distance, Zheng Xueyi had already brought people over here.
It was Qi Baoying's performance time, and she immediately began to draw water from the fire tank to put out the fire.
He just took out a bucket and deliberately poured out half of it. By the time he reached the Buddhist hall, there was not much water left.
When the servants arrived, they saw Qi Baoying, a weak woman, trying hard to put out the fire.
His body was covered in dirt and water stains, and even his face was covered in black dust.
Among these servants was the one who had just seen Lian Yu running to the old lady's yard to ask for help.
Only then did they realize that Lian Yu had gone to the old lady's yard to find someone to put out the fire, but the old lady didn't see anyone.
When the servants arrived, they greeted Qi Baoying and immediately joined in the firefighting.
After waiting for a few more minutes, Zheng Xueyi, who was running behind, also arrived.
