Datang traitor

Chapter 41 Sage Time

Qin Yuan was going to see him, but was pulled back by Wen Yanbo.

"Then what do you say?"

Wen Yanbo said with a sad face, "I don't have anything useful to do. Otherwise, you should find a place to hide first, and I'll tell him that you are away on business today and won't be able to come back?"

Qin Yuan: "What about tomorrow?"

"Let's talk about it after today!"

After Wen Yanbo finished speaking, seeing Qin Yuan looking at him silently, he understood that Qin Yuan didn't intend to hide.Anyway, I can't hide it, so it's better to end it as soon as possible.

"Then be careful, if something happens, shout, and Yang Changshi and I will immediately lead people to rush in and try our best to protect you."

It was very difficult for Wen Yanbo to say "try his best".

Qin Yuan lowered his eyes and pulled the skirt of his clothes, then walked towards the main hall with gentle steps. Before he went in, he asked the little official to inform Yuchi Jingde first.

After Qin Yuan entered the room, he saw a tall man with his hands behind his back facing him.This person has very broad shoulders, standing in the center of the hall, wearing a dark brocade robe with gold and silver patterns, his figure is vigorous, like a ferocious eagle ready to go.Because of his presence, the atmosphere in the room was much suppressed.

Qin Yuan saluted Yuchi Jingde as usual.

Yuchi Jingde turned around to look at Qin Yuan after a while.Yuchi Jingde's face was as black as charcoal, his eyes were piercing with murderous intent, his knife-like eyes stared at Qin Yuan's body for a long time before he asked with a cold snort: "Are you Qin Yuan?"

"Exactly." Qin Yuan said neither humble nor overbearing.

"You can be considered good-looking?" Yuchi Jingde looked at Qin Yuan's face suspiciously, as if doubting his daughter's aesthetics.Yuchi Jingde suddenly sat down on the stool without any precautions, and made a thud.

Qin Yuan felt pain when he heard it, and it hurt to replace the stool.

Yuchi Jingde raised his head and continued to look at Qin Yuan, then felt uncomfortable and asked Qin Yuan to sit down.

Qin Yuan sat down as he said, and let Yuchi Jingde look at him.

"Where is your hometown, what do your parents do?"

"From Xingyang, both parents died, and he is the only son in the family." Qin Yuan couldn't help sighing when he said this.

Of course Yuchi Jingde wanted to ask Qin Yuan why he sighed.

"On the third day after I was born, a sorcerer came uninvited. He told my father, 'This son is the only one of the gods, but all relatives who are related to this son will leave him first. Leave him alone. Why, why don’t you give it up to me’. Of course my father didn’t want to give it up, but my mother died of a serious illness not long after raising me. After that, it was my father. When I was 16 years old, because my parents died, Not wanting to hurt the relatives around me, I sold my property and went out to wander alone. Later, I was lucky enough to be recommended by the house servant, and I am what I am today. Now I can’t be more content, working as a seventh-rank official, eating enough and wearing warm clothes every day , don’t worry about anything. Even if you can’t afford a house, it doesn’t matter, just rent it.”

When Qin Yuan was arranging his life experience, he couldn't help sniffing his nose twice, making people look pitiful.But when it comes to his living conditions, he shows a satisfied and unmotivated look.

Yuchi Jingde was going to be full of questions, but at this moment he was speechless and didn't want to ask any more.

There are no siblings in the family, and both parents are dead.Lonely, poor fortune, and no fighting spirit.Bringing such a good-for-nothing person into the family would probably bring bad luck to their entire Yuchi family.

A fish, a pot of soup.

Yuchi Jingde must be unwilling!

Even ordinary people are unwilling to choose this kind of son-in-law to marry.What's more, his Yuchi family is a wealthy family with a great reputation, and he can choose any kind of son-in-law who is blessed and of family background, so why choose such a person at his own risk.

Yuchi Jingde sighed, pretending to sympathize with Qin Yuan's fate, then excused something and hurried away with a gust of wind.

Wen Yanbo has been hiding next door, worried about the situation here.Seeing that Yuchi Jingde had taken someone away suddenly, he hurriedly rushed out to look at Qin Yuan, he was relieved to find that Qin Yuan was intact, sighed how powerful he was, and asked him how he escaped.

"I'm just a junior official with no family background, and I'm alone, so it's not easy to get into the eyes of those high-ranking families." Qin Yuan smiled wryly, as if he was really sad because he was not caught by Yuchi Jingde.

Wen Yanbo pointed at Qin Yuan helplessly, and scolded him for being a good boy for taking advantage of it.Wen Yanbo smiled and pulled Qin Yuan back, asking him to quickly tell himself how he had caught Yuchi Jingde's 'dislike' so accurately.

"Thanks for telling me about his temperament, he doesn't even like the Minister of the Ministry of Justice who robbed him of his seat. How could he be willing to let someone like me, who is not well-off and self-motivated, marry his precious daughter? Naturally, if you want to save face Willing to have me."

Wen Yanbo suddenly realized, clapped his hands and praised Qin Yuan for his greatness.

"But I think it won't be long before he will come to you."

"Why?" Qin Yuan asked.

"Because your future cannot be hidden sooner or later. Yuchi Jingde can't see it now, but he will eventually discover it in the future." Wen Yanbo explained.

"It makes sense." But Qin Yuan is not worried, there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain, and he has many ways to deal with it.

"Unless you're engaged." Wen Yanbo continued to mutter, and suddenly remembered something, he asked Qin Yuan if he had any thoughts on getting married, and if he wanted, he could ask his wife to help.In fact, Wen Yanbo had selfish intentions and wanted to introduce his elder brother's daughter to Qin Yuan.

Qin Yuan quickly waved his hands, "I can't implicate someone else's good daughter. I know my own virtues very well, and I will definitely not be a good husband. Rather than delaying someone else's woman, I'd rather be single and feel at ease."

Wen Yanbo was surprised that Qin Yuan had such an idea, "It's normal for a man to start a family when he reaches his age, why do you..."

"I am persistent, and I don't want to compromise." Qin Yuan changed the topic and told Wen Yanbo about the case, "I want to check if there is a body in his grave."

"He" refers to Li Jiancheng.

"What!" Wen Yanbo was startled, he asked Qin Yuan to say it again, he might have heard hallucinations just now.

Qin Yuan: "Confirm whether he is alive or dead."

"This, this... I can't decide." Wen Yanbo Hun'er was already half scared, feeling that Qin Yuan really dared to mention it, "I advise you to give up this idea, but according to my understanding of you, You probably can't rest. Then I advise you to go to Mr. Grandson, if this matter can be done, only he can do it. "

Qin Yuan thinks about it too, "Then I'll think about it."

"Qin Yuan! Qin Yuan! Qin Yuan..."

There was a faint shout outside.

The little official had no choice but to report to the outside Wei Chi Wan'er to come to Qin Canjun, no matter how he sent him away, he would not let him go, and now he ordered his followers to shout Qin Canjun's name.

Wen Yanbo and Qin Yuan said with emotion: "As soon as the older one left, the younger one came. This family is really enough to give you a headache."

"It's okay." People in Yuchi's family have a more pleasant temperament, but Qin Yuan thinks it's relatively easy to deal with this kind of people.

"To be honest, it's your face that caused the trouble. I advise you to consider making yourself ugly, such as slashing your face twice?"

Seeing that Qin Yuan seemed to be able to handle these things with ease, Wen Yanbo joked with him.

"It's hard, a naturally handsome person like me, even if he gets a knife in the face, he looks better than you." Qin Yuan also joked back to Wen Yanbo.

Wen Yanbo froze, laughed and scolded Qin Yuan for being shameless.He waited for a while, but he didn't see Qin Yuandong, and curiously asked Qin Yuan why he didn't go to see the situation at the door.

"This is Yongzhou Mansion, the place of the government. What am I afraid of? It's because they are disrespectful in front of the government office, and it's not because I'm embarrassing outside the door." Qin Yuan didn't care.

Wen Yanbo urged his subordinates to ask Yuchi Wan'er away as much as possible.

After a while, the little official hurried over again and told Wen Yanbo that Yuchi Wan'er was waving his whip to prevent the yamen servants from approaching her.Everyone took Yuchi Wan'er's identity into consideration, so they didn't dare to do anything.

Wen Yanbo walked around the center of the room with his hands behind his back, then looked at Qin Yuan, and asked him what to do.

"If you feel that you can't afford it, why bother with it. Then let her shout and see how long she can shout."

"You really don't want to see her? Don't give me any kindness?"

Wen Yanbo suddenly felt that Qin Yuan was not indifferent.I usually see him laughing and laughing, sometimes crazy, like an ordinary person with a human touch, but at the critical moment, he is more 'thin' than anyone else.The so-called fickleness is a kind of inhuman rationality, too rational, not like a person, as if completely cut off the seven emotions and six desires.No matter what the world is like, if you don't follow the trend, no one or anything can shake him.Standing alone, unmoved.

"It's best not to respond." Qin Yuan explained.

It didn't take long for the voices outside to stop, and the little official came to report, and Yuchi Jingde personally led someone to take Yuchi Wan'er away.

After Wen Yanbo heard this reply, he felt that Qin Yuan was indeed sensible, and that the decision he made was ruthless and correct.If they ignored Yuchi Wan'er before, or pitied her and invited her into the mansion infatuatedly, at this moment Yuchi Jingde would definitely spread his anger to Yongzhou mansion.

"It's good to be young. Although I am impulsive and often make mistakes, but only at that time will I pursue what I want sincerely and enthusiastically, regardless of the consequences."

The Tang Dynasty was a bold and open-minded era, and the deeds of Yuchi Wan'er's bold pursuit of people sometimes turned into a kind of good story that was passed down among people.

So everyone is not too worried about Yuchi Wan'er's reputation.Besides, Yuchi Jingde himself has that kind of uninhibited and uninhibited personality. The reason why Yuchi Wan'er dared to do such a thing is because Yuchi Jingde would not punish her too severely.

As long as Yuchi Jingde loses his mind, Yuchi Wan'er will have nothing to sing about.Qin Yuan would pray in his heart that Yuchi Wan'er would find happiness as soon as possible, and it would be better to get engaged earlier, so that his crisis could be completely resolved.

……

After Yuchi Wan'er was brought back to the mansion by Yuchi Jingde, she was very unwilling and cried and threw herself into her mother's arms to complain, complaining that her father didn't help.

Yuchi Jingde usually has a brutal and domineering attitude outside, but he always loves his precious eldest daughter very much.

He softly explained to Yu Chi Wan'er like a cat meowing: Then Qin Yuan is not suitable for her no matter in terms of status or family background, he is not worthy of her!

"He is the lone star of the gods and is destined to be alone for the rest of his life. His parents have been killed by him, and he has no relatives in the family. If you would rather kill your parents and brothers than choose him, you can choose him!"

Yuchi Wan'er's eyes were swollen, she broke free from her mother's embrace, and argued with Yuchi Jingde: "Why does father do this, in order to prevent me from marrying him, he made up nonsense and lied to me like this!"

"Bastard! When did I tell you a lie before? How did you become so ignorant? It's not a big deal. There has already been a rift between our father and daughter because of him, and you still say that he is not lonely?" Yuchi Jingde became more and more convinced that Qin Yuan was not suitable for his daughter, and ordered Yuchi Waner not to leave the house for half a year.After thinking about it, this can't control his active and lively eldest daughter.

Yuchi Jingde decided to send Yuchi Wan'er back to his hometown for a while, and when she calmed down enough to stop playing childish temper, she and he would take him back to Chang'an City.

Yuchi Wan'er panicked, knelt down and kowtowed to Yuchi Jingde, begging him not to send her away.

"You made a big fuss in the Yongzhou Mansion today, do you know how many people saw your jokes. Tomorrow maybe Wei Zheng will join me to teach daughters to have no way to be an official. What else do you want? I really answered Qin Yuan's The lone star of Tiansha has had bad luck, and we have nothing to do with him here, and we will be implicated!" The more Yuchi Jingde thought about it, the more he felt that everything that happened now could be related to Qin Yuan's loneliness relation.

Yuchi Wan'er had nothing to say, she turned around and ran away.

When Qin Yuan was on duty, he saw Yuchi Baolin at the gate of Yongzhou Mansion.

Yuchi Baolin led the horse and walked home with Qin Yuan, and by the way told Qin Yuan his father's decision to send the elder sister back to her hometown.

Yuchi Baolin apologized on behalf of her eldest sister and Qin Yuan.

"She is too straight-minded, doing whatever she wants to do, which has added a lot of trouble to Qin Jun."

"It's really not enough to just look at the face." Qin Yuan asked Yuchi Baolin to remind his elder sister that it is better to look at people from both the inside and outside, "But don't say I said it."

Qin Yuan didn't want to cause any misunderstanding, nor did he want to give the other party any hope.Originally, they had no relationship between him and Yu Chi Wan'er, and Yu Chi Wan'er's so-called liking was actually very superficial, and she would soon forget it after she calmed down for a while.

Yuchi Baolin promised that after he followed Qin Yuan to the door of his house, he hesitated to speak to Qin Yuan.

"Anything else?"

"There is one thing," Yuchi Baolin hesitated for a long time before saying, "I recently encountered a strange thing. If I asked others, I was afraid that no one would know, so I thought of Brother Qin. I know that Brother Qin is well-informed. Knowing a lot of anecdotes, I want to ask Brother Qin if he has seen such things."

Qin Yuan invited Yuchi Baolin into the house, poured water for him, and put a plate of the bitter gourd honey cake he took from the dim sum shop for Yuchi Baolin on the table.

Yuchi Baolin was born in a wealthy family, delicacies from mountains and seas are eaten every day, and there are many delicious things.But the green leaf-shaped dim sum on the plate is very attractive to him, it just looks very refreshing and delicious.

Yuchi Baolin couldn't help but took a piece and stuffed it into her mouth. It has a faint honey-sweetness that is not choking, a refreshing and cold taste, and a little bit of bitterness in the aftertaste, but not astringent.

"This dim sum is quite interesting." Yuchi Baolin casually asked about the origin, and secretly wrote down the address of Gu's dim sum shop in her heart.

Qin Qiong: "Tell me, what strange thing did you encounter?"

"The day before yesterday, Changsun Chong and I were having fun on a boat in Qujiang Pond. We saw a couple and a woman dressed in colorful clothes by the river. The woman rubbed a thick layer of gouache on her face. Suddenly, her hands and feet danced and she muttered Casting chaotic and unclear spells.

Curious, we drew the boat closer.The woman suddenly stiffened and said the man's words in a rough voice.I could hear the words of real men, like you and me, not fake voices.The woman said the words, and the two people who followed her knelt down crying and promised again and again.Afterwards, the woman shook her body and regained her female voice.

We were curious, so we sent people ashore to inquire, and we learned that the woman could actually make the ghost of the dead speak with her body.Neither of us believed it, so we paid a lot of money to let the woman and us try it.

Chang Sun Chong said that she wanted to meet his grandfather.The woman took Chang Sun Chong's hand and muttered to herself. Soon after, a man's voice really came out of her mouth.Since Changsun Chong had never met his grandfather, we didn't believe it. At this time, the woman accurately stated the birthdays of Changsun Gong and Changsun Empress.After that, the woman regained her senses and said that her stomach hurts and she wanted to grovel, but she ran away and never came back. "

After Yuchi Baolin finished speaking, she asked Qin Yuan if there were dead people who could attach themselves to living people.

Qin Yuan nodded, and asked Yuchi Baolin if she knew the woman's name and where she lived.Yuchi Baolin shook her head.Qin Yuan asked Yuchi Baolin to draw the appearance of the woman, and then took the portrait to the Changsun Mansion.

Changsun Wuji was having dinner, and when he heard that Qin Yuan came to visit him without placing a greeting card, he frowned and scolded him for being unruly, but he still ordered his subordinates to invite others in.

Changsun Wuji saw Qin Yuan holding a portrait in his hand.

"what is this?"

"There is a portrait that I want Changsun Dalang to recognize." Qin Yuan told Changsun Wuji the story he just heard from Yuchi Baolin.

Changsun Wuji didn't think so, "Maybe it's a trick to fool the children, it's just that the woman's oral skills are better."

Qin Yuan didn't mention this matter for the time being, and told Changsun Wuji the most important thing first. He told Changsun Wuji that he wanted to confirm whether Li Jiancheng's body was still there.

Changsun Wuji was surprised: "Your idea is too crazy, who gave you the courage? I told you that he was definitely dead at the beginning, but you don't believe that you still have to dig up the grave?"

"I believed he was dead at that time." Qin Yuan glanced at Changsun Wuji, and said leisurely, "But I can't tell later."

Changsun Wuji was stunned: "What do you mean by that? Is it possible that the dead can be resurrected?"

"That possibility is not ruled out."

Changsun Wuji stared at Qin Yuan more sharply, "Do you know that I can accuse you of the crime of bewitching people by talking like this. Do you know that if the five words 'Li Jiancheng is resurrected' enter the ears of a saint, , what consequences will it bring?"

"That's why I came to discuss with Mr. Grandson whether we can solve this matter quietly and try not to disturb the saint. There are too many mysterious legends since ancient times, and not all of them may be true. I just ruled it out .” Qin Yuan rubbed his nose and explained guiltily.

Changsun Wuji also understood that the handwriting was really strange. Qin Yuan thought in a strange direction, but there was nothing wrong with it.

Changsun Wuji sighed, scolding Qin Yuan would cause him trouble.Let him think about it first, and when he thinks of an idea and settles the matter, he will naturally send someone to call him.

Qin Yuan held up the portrait in his hand, "I would like to trouble you, Mr. Dalang of your house, to help you."

Changsun Wuji continued to helplessly call his eldest son, Changsun Chong.

Zhang Sunchong's statement was basically the same as that of Yuchi Baolin. In his opinion, the eyes of the woman in the portrait were bigger, and there was a mole on the left temple near the earlobe.

Qin Yuan saw that Sun Chong observed the mole so carefully, so he knew that his description should be more reliable than Yuchi Baolin.So still according to what Zhang Sun Chong said, he repainted a portrait of the woman.The woman has thick eyebrows and big eyes, but she doesn't feel delicate at all. In short, she is out of harmony and not very good-looking.

Changsun Wuji asked why Changsun Chong didn't tell himself such a thing.

"I'm afraid that Aye won't believe it, but actually we don't even know whether we should believe it or not." Changsun Chong said.

When Qin Yuan was about to leave, Changsun Wuji reminded Qin Yuan that if the matter of digging the grave was done, he would owe him a favor.

Qin Yuan agreed, saying that he would definitely pay it back.

The next day, Qin Yuan's farm harvested eggplants, which were big, thick and tender.

Qin Yuan bought some minced mutton, peeled the eggplant, cut it into pieces, stuffed it with minced meat, and steamed it in a pan.Gu Qingqing smelled the fragrance and asked Qin Yuan what to eat through the wall.

Qin Yuan brought over a plate of ready-made eggplants and invited Gu Qingqing and the others to eat.In fact, Qin Yuan originally wanted to make fried eggplant boxes for Gu Qingqing and the others to try, but found that the oil at home was not enough, and then he remembered that the oil in Tang Dynasty was relatively precious, so it was not easy to waste it.

After Gu Qingqing and Zhou Xiaolu had their fill of breakfast, they said to Qin Yuan, "We both think that eggplant should be mixed into a side dish and sold together with steamed cakes."

"Steam cake?" Qin Yuan asked.

"That's right, Brother Qin forgot to give us some raisins and dried dates before? We plan to use this to make steamed cakes, mix some side dishes, and cook a pot of soup, just enough for the guests to sit in the room and eat."

Qin Yuan admired the brains of the two of them, "I was too worried, but you guys have a better idea. If it works, I'll just wait for the money to be spent."

……

After noon, Changsun Wuji personally visited the Yongzhou Mansion and told Qin Yuan: "Everything that should be there is still there."

"I've seen it with my own eyes, are you sure?"

Changsun Wuji stared back at Qin Yuan in disgust: "You doubt me?"

"Then I have to consider other possibilities, such as the woman by the Qujiang Pond who can possess ghosts."

Changsun Wuji sneered: "You don't really think it's such a coincidence that the meeting between the two children happens to be related to your case?"

"Xu An happened to be the eldest grandson's servant, Bairan happened to be Qin Qiong's actor, and Gu Changhuang happened to be my neighbor..."

"Okay, let's check."

Qin Yuan immediately posted notices all over the city to find people and offered rewards for clues.In less than half a day, ten people came to provide information.

Qin Yuan found the woman in Changmingfang according to the address mentioned by everyone.

The appearance of this person is exactly the same as the portrait, the only difference is that this 'woman' is not wearing a skirt today.

When Qin Yuan led someone into the 'woman''s house, he was lying in the bathtub doing indescribable things, and he couldn't help but groaned twice.
