The eighth day of the first lunar month.
The nuns loaded all the gifts onto the carriage.
The smile on Chen's face was still there, but she was also a little tired.
There are so many things to do during the Chinese New Year, even if she is as energetic as she is, it can be a bit overwhelming.
Holding Lin Yunyan's hand, Chen said: "Yunyan is still considerate and willing to accompany me to visit relatives. Unlike Yunfang, she is like a monkey on weekdays. She hides during the New Year and is unwilling to let her go out."
Lin Yunyan smiled.
Everyone knows Lin Yunfang's little thoughts.
During the Chinese New Year, it’s hard to win alone when playing horse games, and it’s not fun at all.
I still have to deal with this mother-in-law and that aunt, asking her a lot of questions.
"Yunfang is another year older. Do you have a suitable candidate in your family?"
"How is my maternal cousin's nephew? Do you want to get in touch?"
It would be strange if Yunfang didn't run away.
Lin Yunyan will go today because she is going to the Jin family.
"I promised Ning Ning to play with her, and I can't break my promise." Lin Yunyan said.
Just as they were getting ready, Chen Gui came.
Chen Gui came to deliver news to Xu Jian.
"Xuansu followed Jiangjunfang the day before yesterday, and Liu Xun suddenly came. He talked to the two guards outside for a long time, and then went into the private room."
"It was too noisy at the time, and Xuan Su couldn't follow too closely, so I didn't understand what was said on the other side."
The words were all true, but Chen Gui didn't know what kind of inside story they contained.
He even didn't know what Duke Fu Guo wanted his followers to follow the prince.
If he is caught in the act, can he explain it in the royal study?
However, Chen Gui has his own rules for doing things.
Ask less and do more.
It's his turn to know, whether it's the auxiliary Duke or the princess, they won't hide it from him at all, and they won't forget him if there is any benefit.
If he shouldn't know, then don't ask around.
After Lin Yunyan listened, she nodded slightly.
The prince was addicted to cockfighting, and Liu Xun had contact with the prince. They knew this early on.
There is no new progress. If it were left to normal, Xu Jian would not let Chen Gui report.
Thinking about it, it was Xu Jian who knew that she was going to Jin's house today.
They still have no way of knowing how Jin Shu and Yueniang are connected, so they must always be careful.
In that compartment, the carriage is ready.
Mrs. Chen greeted Lin Yunyan and said, "I'll get in the car first."
Lin Yunyan responded, exchanged a few words with Chen Gui, and got on the carriage.
The car left the house and went all the way to Jin's house.
Lin Lang was waiting for them with Jinning in his arms.
As soon as Lin Yunyan got out of the car, Jinning stretched out her hands and shouted "hug".
Take the child over, you kiss me, and I kiss you again. Lin Yunyan smiled until her eyes were crooked: "It must be that Ning Ning is not afraid of the cold and refuses to wait in the room."
On the side, the eldest wife of the Jin family put her hands on her hands and laughed: "The princess is absolutely right."
Ning Ning said proudly: "I'm not afraid of the cold! I'm not afraid!"
The group of people went to the ancestral house of the Jin family.
This ancestor is almost eighty.
I am still in good spirits and speak loudly, but my ears are not very good and my memory is not very good either. I am clear one moment and muddy the next. .
"Is this the princess? She has grown into a big girl," she said cheerfully, "have you kissed me?"
The eldest wife of the Jin family leaned over and reminded her in her ear: "We said we kissed last year and gave it to Duke Fu, have you forgotten?"
"The Duke of Fu?" The ancestor thought for a while, "How good is the Duke of Fu, Jun!"
The women and maids in the room laughed.
"Listen, if you don't remember the others, I will remember Jun."
"Our ancestors had the most important memory."
Lin Yunyan also laughed and turned to ask the eldest wife: "Where are the sisters at home? Where is the fifth sister?"
"They are in their own room. Call them over later," the eldest lady said.
He added, "Ashu went out to burn incense."
"Shang Xiang? What big day is today?" Lin Yunyan asked
"It's not a big day," the eldest lady said with a smile. "She copied new scriptures and sent them to Fa'an Temple for worship. She went there early in the morning, had a vegetarian meal in the temple and then came back. Don't be in a hurry, wait for the afternoon with other sisters Let's play some leaf cards, I think Ashu will be home."
Lin Yunyan's heartbeat was pounding, and she felt an inexplicable palpitation.
Heavy and heavy.
Subconsciously, her left hand rested on her right wrist.
There is a sleeve arrow inside.
She has to find Jin Shu!
"I'll pick her up." Lin Yunyan stood up, bowed to her ancestors and others, and hurried out.
This was so sudden that everyone was stunned.
The eldest lady of the Jin family stepped forward to chase her, but before she could walk out of the room, she saw through the crack of the half-open window that the pretty figure had already left the yard.
"This..." She smiled awkwardly, "Fa'an Temple is not far away, Ashu often goes there."
Mrs. Chen came back to her senses and laughed dryly, trying to make up for Lin Yunyan: "Hey, maybe Yun Jing and the others were in danger years ago, which scared Yun Yan. She couldn't sit still when she heard that Ashu was on the mountain. It's up to her. Go ahead, Uncle Niu can feel at ease driving the car."
The carriage drove out of Jin's house again and headed towards the city gate.
When Niu Bo saw Lin Yunyan in a hurry, the car drove much faster than usual.
Even so, it was almost noon when they arrived at Fa'an Temple.
There are not many pilgrims in the temple.
Zhike Monk and Lin Yunyan performed Buddhist rituals.
"Are the five girls of the Jin family still in the temple?" Wan Yue asked. Seeing the guest monk's hesitation, she took out her waist badge again, "We are from Chengyi's Mansion. This is our princess. We are related by marriage to the Jin family. Jin There’s a family emergency.”
Zhike Monk didn't recognize Lin Yunyan, but he knew that Uncle Chengyi's house had a good reputation.
Seeing the waist badge and the gorgeous car, the monk who knew the guest replied, "The benefactor of the Jin Dynasty is still in the temple. He is resting in the guest room at the back. The young monk asked someone to take the benefactor there."
The person leading the way was a young novice monk.
At first, he said, "The donor of Jin is kind-hearted and kind-hearted." But then seeing that they were in a hurry, he stopped talking and just led the way.
There are many guest rooms in Hoanji Temple.
There are nearly twenty rooms in the front and back rows.
It was a free day today, and it was time for dinner. Everyone had gone to the dining hall, and there was no one there at the moment.
Wan Yue knocked on the door of Jin Shu's room.
There was no response from inside.
"Perhaps she went to the dining hall?" the little novice monk murmured, and then added, "Almsgiver Jin rarely goes to the dining hall. She may have gone to the main hall again, and her nanny went to the dining hall to get food."
Lin Yunyan reached out and pushed the door open.
The door panel moved and then bounced back.
The heavy feeling didn't feel like a door latch, but rather like something was blocking it inside.
She went around to the back of the guest room, patted the window panel, and the window panel popped out.
Lin Yunyan took advantage of the situation and opened the window.
Looking in from here, there is no one in the room and the door cannot be seen.
When the little novice monk exclaimed "No, no, no", Lin Yunyan held on to the edge of the window and climbed in.
Go through the floor covering and look next to the door.
A chest of drawers stood against the door.
Jin Shu's nanny fell to the ground, half leaning against the cupboard, unconscious.
"Wang Yue!" Lin Yunyan called out.
As soon as Wan Yue heard the voice, she knew something was wrong. She wanted to imitate Lin Yunyan and climb out of the window, but in a hurry, Uncle Niu climbed in first and grabbed her again.
The little novice monk was so anxious that he didn't care about any rules or etiquette.
When he entered the guest room and took a look, he was immediately dumbfounded.
This, this is obviously a bad guy!
