In a quiet room, there was a wisp of incense and sandalwood, and a woman's faint hurrying could be heard behind a veil.
After Ji Yongan came in, he bowed respectfully to the woman behind the veil.
"What's the matter?" The voice of the woman behind the veil was gentle and elegant.
"My daughter has already agreed to what happened before." Ji Yongan lowered his head and stared at the floor tiles in front of him, as if he was talking to the air in front of him.
"Agree?" The woman's voice was somewhat sarcastic. "It's already this late, and she still doesn't agree. She's really stupid. It's best if this is the case. If she cooperates, this will be easier."
"Yes!" Ji Yongan said.
The woman behind the veil paused for a moment, and a young Taoist nun came out with a tray in her hand and handed it to Ji Yongan with a letter on it.
"Take it and have a look!" said the woman behind the veil.
"Yes, thank you very much, Master. Thank you very much, Master." Ji Yongan was very excited. With trembling fingers, he took the letter from the tray. After such a long time, he finally got an audience with the Master and finally got a response from the Master.
He had a hard time during this period. His former friends would mock him whenever they saw him, mocking him for being the second master of the Ling'an Marquis's Mansion and having fallen to such a state. At one point, he even secretly boasted that he was the prince's father-in-law. How great he was in the past, how shameful he is now.
Unexpectedly, the immortal master was willing to help him.
This also made him feel that his original decision was right. You Ran was unreliable, so he could only look for another way. Fortunately, fortunately...
"Go! Remember not to talk too much." said the woman.
"Yes, yes!" Ji Yongan nodded and bowed as he retreated. When he got outside, he wiped the cold sweat that had just appeared on his forehead. He looked around to see that there was no one around, put the letter into his sleeve, and suddenly became very excited.
His current desolation is nothing. In the future, he will make those who look down on him kneel at his feet.
What does it matter if a daughter falls into disgrace? He still has a trump card...
This is a quiet room in Qingyun Temple. The person inside should be the nun of Qingyun Temple, but he doesn't know who is inside. But what does it matter? It doesn't prevent him from finding his backbone here. When he was despised by his family and was completely inferior to his elder brother in Ling'anbo's Mansion, he once met the immortal master here by chance.
The immortal master's words also made him suddenly enlightened, and the immortal master also gave him a backup plan.
It's a pity that everything was destroyed by the Xiao family. Fortunately, the immortal master has not given up on me and is still willing to help me. It must be because I am lucky.
Thinking of this, the depression in his heart subsided a lot. He bowed respectfully towards the courtyard behind him, then turned around and left with satisfaction.
With the immortal master's plan, his own scheme will definitely be more successful. He will definitely savor the letter carefully after returning.
The master of Qingyun Temple has always been able to predict good and bad luck. Even if the woman inside is not the master of Qingyun Temple, she must be related to her. This also makes Ji Yongan believe in his own luck even more...
After Ji Yongan left, the veil was pulled open, and a woman came out from inside. She was wearing plain clothes, but her skin looked so light and her face was as beautiful as water.
Standing outside the window, he looked at Ji Yongan's receding back, smiled sarcastically, and walked out.
Along the way, she turned several intersections, and all the pilgrims she met on the road stopped to look at the nun.
It’s such a pity in Qingyun Temple.
"Master Ning Yin." Seeing her coming, a little Taoist nun who was guarding outside the courtyard gate stepped forward and saluted.
"Is the abbot in there?" Master Ning Yin stopped and asked with a slight smile.
"The abbot is waiting for the real person inside." The little nun stepped aside and bowed.
Master Ning Yin stopped talking, nodded, and walked inside.
When she entered the door of the quiet room, there was a little Taoist nun guarding it, who helped her lift the bamboo curtain hanging on the door.
Zhenren Ning Yin walked in and bowed to the master of Qingyun Temple in the middle.
"Please sit down first!" The master of Qingyun Temple did not open his eyes.
Zhenren Ningyin is on the thin ball in front of the master of Qingyun Temple.
"Master, it is said that his daughter agreed." Master Ning Yin said in a low voice after sitting down.
The head of Qingyun Temple pulled the corners of his lips, and smiled a little strangely: "Agree? So what if you don't agree? It was Xiao's fault in the beginning."
She had never thought highly of Ji Youran at first. When the prince and Ji Hanyue, who was then the future crown princess, came to Qingyun Temple together, she secretly observed them and came to the conclusion that the prince was really concerned about the future crown princess. Although Ji Youran was also with them, the prince was gentle and kind to her, and sometimes even took special care of her.
In order to demonstrate her status in the prince's heart, Ji Youran deliberately fabricated a scene. Pei Luoan, who was originally going to find Ji Hanyue, was dragged down by her because of some trivial matters, causing Ji Hanyue to wait in a pavilion for a long time. It seemed that Ji Youran had the upper hand.
But in fact, although the prince did not go there, he was always uneasy and looked listless. After he went there, he repeatedly apologized, and it was clear who was the one who really cared about him.
But Miss Ji couldn't see clearly and insisted on bumping into it.
She brought this situation upon herself.
I don't have the ability, but I still dare to dream about what I can't get.
"Master, what should we do now?" asked Master Ning Yin.
"There's no need to do anything. We can't rush this matter right now. Let's just wait for the news! There should be news." The master of Qingyun Temple said, slowly opening his eyes and his gaze fell on Master Ning Yin.
This kind of substantial gaze made Master Ning Yin feel very uncomfortable. He bit his lip and asked anxiously, "Master, is there something wrong with me?"
"You are very good!" The master of Qingyun Temple smiled. The disciple in front of him was very cute when he was young, and now he is even more amazing.
She is beautiful, gentle and talented. Which man would not love such a woman
Miss Tong, the most beautiful lady in the capital at that time, was of this type, wasn’t she
"Didn't the British princess invite you to the British palace?" asked the master of Qingyun Temple meaningfully.
Master Ning Yin blushed, lowered her head, and said in a lower voice, a little shyly, "No, it's just a simple letter."
She would send letters and gifts and receive replies and gifts from Qu Moying, but she couldn't be too conspicuous. After all, she was a person who lived apart from the world. Even if she and Qu Moying got along well, she couldn't write letters to him every few days.
"Master, does she... suspect me?" Master Ning Yin asked uneasily.
"Suspect you? No... What can she know? I heard that she was raised in the manor since she was a child. She didn't like to see people in the past, even her own family members. Now she is much better than before. You can get along with her and she can still write to you. That's enough.
Seeing you is successful.”
The abbot of Qingyun Temple comforted Master Ningyin.
"Really?" Master Ning Yin's voice unconsciously became a little anxious.
"Of course it's true." The voice of the master of Qingyun Temple was as steady as ever, which made Master Ning Yin's previously fluctuating heart feel more confident.
"Master, what should we do now? Princess England doesn't write to me usually. If I keep waiting like this, I really don't know how long I'll have to wait." asked Master Ning Yin.
"This matter is indeed a bit slow." The master of Qingyun Temple nodded. Master Ning Yin and Princess Ying have been on good terms for a while, before Princess Ying got married. But now, they have been unable to make any progress and can only maintain the friendship they had in the past.
He reached out his hand and took something out from his sleeve and pushed it in front of Master Ning Yin, "Take a look at this."
Master Ning Yin took it and looked at it, and was stunned for a moment: "Master... what... is this..."
"Filial piety comes first, even for the Princess of England. Even though she is not willing to socialize with others now, she is no longer the fourth Miss Qu who was abandoned in the manor."
The head of Qingyun Temple lowered her eyes and spoke slowly, with a gleam of light in her eyes. If she had known that Fourth Miss Qu would have such an experience, she should have made arrangements early on, but now it is too late.
Fortunately, there is a remedy...
"Master, I went to see Xiao." An Dong came in to report. Fearing that there might be accidents, he went to handle the matter personally, and he also met the crazy Xiao.
"How is it?" Qu Moying nodded.
"After Xiao heard what I said about Concubine Yuan, she said something." An Dong said with a strange look on his face.
The so-called matters about Concubine Yuan were, of course, the words arranged by the master before, some speculations plus the things that had been found out about Concubine Yuan, plus the comparison between her current "glory" and Ji Youran's miserable life. It was not said just once, but stated again and again. Fearing that she didn't understand, he deliberately spoke in small sections.
He also repeated Yuan Meiren's name for a long time.
"Ms. Xiao's reaction at first was very dull. She didn't understand what I said. Then, when I mentioned Lady Yuan's name again and again, she suddenly rushed over to hit me, cursing me as 'illegitimate daughter' in hatred." An Dong said again.
The words were vague at first, but became clearer and clearer as they were spoken. An Dong heard them clearly and realized that they meant the same thing as his master had guessed before.
"Is she really an illegitimate daughter? Whose?" Qu Moying was silent for a long time before speaking slowly.
"I can't tell you the answer, but seeing how hateful Xiao was, and how she cursed Lady Yuan again and again, I think she must be from the second branch of the Ji Mansion."
An Dong thought about it and said that he could not forget Xiao's crazy eyes that were full of hatred and almost venom. If they were from different rooms, it would be impossible for him to have such great hatred.
She calls her a little bitch all the time. If Yuan Meiren was there, she would probably feel like she was torn apart.
Qu Moying exhaled deeply. Although she had guessed this, she was relieved now that it was confirmed. Daddy was truly devoted to Mother, and there was no one else, and no other daughter, in his heart.
Therefore, Concubine Yuan is Ji Yongan’s illegitimate daughter, an illegitimate daughter who was born without telling Xiao.
This daughter looks a lot like Ji Hanyue, even more like Ji Hanyue than Ji Youran, and this daughter has entered the palace...
