Chapter 293

After arranging everything, Lin Ziang went out to meet Taoist Priest Putuo.

After a special exhortation, he returned home, and went to meet Yong'anhou and the others with his usual kind and courteous smile.

It just so happened that it was time for dinner, and when she saw Lin Ziang coming over, Mrs. Zhao was as enthusiastic as ever.

"Zi Ang, are you back? Come and sit down, let's have dinner together."

"Thank you ma'am."

"Father, are you back? Did you go out on business this time?"

"Well, it's going well. Ziang, how are you doing?" Yong'an Hou Linsheng asked him.

"Father, I've been fine recently. I plan to go to Yuzhou with Brother Zhao Qiancheng in a few days. Brother Zhao said that I need to go there with him to deal with some things."

"Zhao Qiancheng? Could it be that His Majesty has arranged a new job for him?" Lin Sheng asked slightly curiously.

"Exactly. His Majesty asked Brother Zhao to go to Yuzhou to coordinate and check the people's situation and the people's harvest this year, and go to the government to check."

"Zi'ang, does His Majesty know about Zhao Qiancheng taking you to Yuzhou?"

"Of course I know! Brother Zhao told His Majesty about this. Father, don't worry, Brother Zhao and I will try our best to handle this matter well." Lin Ziang looked confident, with a hint of complacency in his eyes.

When this job fell on Zhao Qiancheng's head, I don't know how many people in the court were envious and jealous.

After all, this matter is simple and easy to do. If it is done well, it will be appreciated and rewarded by His Majesty. It will be a good thing for them at that time.

It was useful for him to spend so long with the sons of officials in the capital.

He will definitely make his father and those people in the court look at him differently through this matter.

Not everyone has the opportunity to do this.

"Okay, master, did you hear that our family is promising."

"Zi'ang, you can do it with confidence and boldness. You must try your best to do the errands assigned by His Majesty well, so as to give us the honor of the Marquis."

Mrs. Zhao looked at Lin Ziang with some relief and excitement.

When they were enfeoffing land outside, they still thought that their Marquis Mansion was quite remarkable, and that one side was dominant.

But after coming to a place like the capital where bigwigs gather, they realized that compared with all the capable and background officials in the court, their Houfu was still inferior after all.

If they can get His Majesty's favor, then their Hou Mansion will be higher in the capital.

"Well, Ziang, did you hear what your mother said? Since you have accepted this job, do it well." Yong'an Hou also said, with a hint of encouragement in his eyes.

"I know, father, mother!"

The following meal process also seemed warm and peaceful, and it was enjoyable.

Lin Ziang spoke with a certain degree of advance and retreat, and he also picked some topics that Mrs. Zhao was interested in, and the atmosphere was good.

"Zi'ang, you're not young anymore. When you come back from this business, you should think about the big things in your life. In the whole capital, do you have any girls you like?" Mrs. Zhao suddenly brought up this topic.

For some reason, Shen Guan's cold and lonely face suddenly appeared in Lin Ziang's mind.

"Mother, I'm preoccupied with the errand assigned by His Majesty right now. After finishing this matter, I'll talk about other things."

"Of course it's important to do things, and you can't delay the important things in your life. If you have a girl you like, you can tell her first, and I will go around and find out for you for your mother."

"Mother, have you ever heard of Shen Guan, the daughter of Prime Minister Shen?" Lin Ziang couldn't help asking.

"Shen Guan? Just the prostitute of the Right Prime Minister's family who just came home from another place? I've heard that she is a stubborn woman, and she even manages the shop business by herself, not graceful and demure enough. Ziang, how do you treat her?" Interesting?" Zhao asked.

"Mother, I think Miss Shen's family is a good person, she is independent, she is different from ordinary ladies from aristocratic families, she is a good girl."

"Since you said so, I'll inquire about it another day," Zhao said.

"Thank you ma'am."

"By the way, Ziang, let's accompany my mother to the temple in the afternoon."

Mrs. Zhao has a habit. Like most women in these ancient times, she believes in the theory of gods.

So when he heard that Lin Ziang was going to go out to do some business, he thought about going to the temple to ask for a safety talisman, so that Lin Ziang could carry it with him to keep him safe.

"Okay." Lin Ziang nodded.

It was at this time that the young servant who stood by and waited for the meal suddenly talked a lot.

"Madam Qi, the younger one has something important to report."

"What's the matter?" Mrs. Zhao couldn't help turning her head to look at the boy.

"My little one heard that the Putuo Taoist priest of Lingqing Temple has left the seclusion, do you want to invite the Taoist priest to come to the mansion?"

"Putuo Taoist priest has left the customs? When did this happen? It would be great if you could invite him to the mansion."

After Mrs. Zhao finished speaking, a flash of understanding flashed across Lin Ziang's face, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

Sure enough, everything went as he expected.

Taoist Putuo is quite well-known in the capital, so when he came to Hou's mansion, he was warmly received by Mrs. Zhao.

Mrs. Zhao asked him to help the Hou Mansion to be safe and ensure the stability and prosperity of the Hou Mansion.

Putuo Taoist priest dressed up as a fairy, and suddenly frowned slightly after walking around the Hou's mansion for a long time.

When Mrs. Zhao asked about the reason, Taoist Putuo used the previous nonsense.

"Ma'am, the poor man made a calculation. Originally, the Hou Mansion should be prosperous and safe for generations, but there was a catastrophe."

"Calamity? What kind of catastrophe is that? Is there a solution?" Hearing this, Zhao couldn't help becoming worried.

"I don't know if I should talk about it or not?" Putuo Taoist priest looked hesitant.

"The Taoist leader, but it doesn't matter if you say it!"

"Pindao deduced the future fortune of the Hou Mansion based on the astrology and the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams, and found that the inconspicuous Ziwei Xing in the north is too evil. If it is not controlled, it may affect the future of the Hou Mansion."

"Northern? Can the Taoist figure out who is affecting the fate of the Marquis Mansion?" Zhao's heart was even more worried.

"This... spying on the secrets of the heavens is against fate, and I can't do anything about it. But the person involved in this matter has evil spirits in his life, which will definitely implicate others, and even go against God's will, bringing disasters. Madam, just pay more attention in the future."

"Thank you for the reminder, Daoist." Mrs. Zhao nodded, keeping all this in her heart.

She also asked Taoist Putuo to help open a few peace talismans, and Zhao arranged for someone to take care of Taoist Putuo carefully, while she went to find Marquis Yong'an and told him what happened today.

"Ma'am, don't listen to these rumors, our Marquis Mansion will surely live forever."

"Master, you need to pay more attention to the words of Taoist Putuo. Even if you don't believe it, it is always right to take precautions." Zhao said.

"Well, the north he mentioned, who live in the northern part of the Hou's mansion? Ma'am, I will leave this matter to you to investigate, and please remember not to say anything."

"Understood, sir."

In the ensuing investigation, the people Zhao sent to investigate the matter found various clues one after another, and even fished out a stone with words engraved on it from the pool in the north of the Hou Mansion.

The writing on the stone seems to have been polished by time, and it seems a bit old. The content of the words can be vaguely seen, and the writing is fake and true, and the world is destined.If you follow the trend of heaven and chance, you can avoid disasters and solve all difficulties.

As for the final direction of various clues, they all point to Lin Chenyuan who has never returned to the mansion.

After learning the truth, Mrs. Zhao's expression changed slightly, and she pulled Yong'an Hou to talk about it in the study.

After hearing this, Marquis Yong'an was full of disbelief, and said that Mrs. Zhao was worrying too much and thinking too much.

"My lord, the evidence is so, why don't you believe it? You went to pick him up twice personally, was he willing to come back? No. He is now in Qincheng, isn't Qincheng the northernmost location of Qi State?
There are also those things that the servants found, but it must be him?

Besides, the writing on the stone clearly tells us to obey God's will. Since he wants to stay there, let's stay there, so as to avoid disaster. "

"Ma'am, how can you put such a hat on Shen Yuan because of a few nonsense words from others, how innocent is he? He didn't do anything, what's wrong? Don't say such things in the future."

After finishing speaking, Yong'anhou went out angrily.

Because of the awkwardness in his heart, Yong'an Hou secretly sent someone to investigate, wondering if someone was targeting Lin Chenyuan in this matter.

As a result, nothing was found out, so he could only order the matter to be sealed and not reveal anything to the outside world.

After hearing all this, Lin Ziang just smiled silently, feeling somewhat unreasonably jealous of Yong'an Hou's preference for Lin Chenyuan.

When his identity was just exposed, Marquis Yong'an showed a different unfamiliarity towards him than in the past.

Later, because of Lin Chenyuan's words and the investigation that he was going to murder Lin Chenyuan, he wanted to drive him away.

In the end, thanks to his witty response and Mrs. Zhao's single-minded protection of him, it made him come to this point.

Now it seems that in the heart of Marquis Yong'an, Lin Chenyuan is really the most important.

But it doesn't matter, he didn't expect that some rumors would solve Lin Chenyuan all at once.

When something really happened in the north, he was sending people to ferment the rumors, and then he wanted to see what kind of attitude Marquis Yong'an would have.

He was about to set off with Zhao Qiancheng to run an errand, and when he came back from the errand and was appreciated by His Majesty, and just happened to hear the bad news about Lin Chenyuan, he didn't believe that Marquis Yong'an was still the same as before.

At this moment, Lin Chenyuan naturally also heard news about the capital from his subordinates.

When he learned that Lin Ziang had already started planning and planned to go to Yuzhou, he just curled his lips coldly.

Things are getting more and more interesting.

I hope he will not be too disappointed during his trip to Yuzhou!

"Master, you...really don't plan to go back to the capital?" Zhuifeng, who had almost understood the facts, couldn't help asking curiously.

"No hurry, it's not the time yet."

"Counting the time, those people are coming soon. How is the matter at the gold mine going?"

"Back to Master, everything has been handled properly without leaving any trace." Zhuifeng lowered his head and said.

"Well, contact the people in the capital, and then go to the capital to spread a few hidden lines, and inquire about Qin Ke's news by the way."

"Yes, master."
