Chapter 76 Nobody's around, who am I supposed to do?
Today is the first day of the new year that Leishan Temple is open to the public. Many people have come, and there are people lining up to burn incense and worship Buddha outside each hall.
The area outside the Temple of the Matchmaker was also packed with people, all hoping to find a suitable partner in the new year.
Han Shu and Su Yan'er waited outside for a while before it was finally their turn to go in and pray.
The two knelt on the prayer mats, whispering their prayers.
He then went to a master and asked for a red thread from the Matchmaker God, hoping to firmly bind his beloved to him.
"Madam, Miss, last night this humble monk observed the stars and deduced that the Old Man of the Moon will be personally presiding over the Moon God's Palace today. If you were to have your marriage fortune told, the result would be personally revealed by the Old Man of the Moon. Such an opportunity is extremely rare!"
Upon hearing the master's words, Han Shu couldn't hold back any longer. She quickly had her maid bring her a silver ingot and said, "Please, please, master, tell me, what is this woman's fate in marriage?"
Upon hearing this, Su Yan'er blushed instantly, her heart trembled slightly, and she lowered her head timidly, not daring to step forward.
In the end, it was Han Shu who pulled her over.
The master glanced at Su Yan'er's face, asked for her birth date and time, then closed his eyes, moved his fingers, and muttered some words. In a short while, he wrote down another birth date and time on the paper.
"This woman is a lucky star descended to earth. Those who are destined to be with her will surely rise to prominence, especially those born under her birth chart. They are a match made in heaven, a perfect pair!"
Han Shu accepted the paper handed to her by the master with some skepticism.
She was completely stunned when she saw the birth date and time on it.
Is this not Lang'er's birth date and time?
Han Shu was afraid that she was seeing things, so she looked at it several more times to confirm that it was indeed Qin Lang's birth date and time.
According to the master, Yan'er and Lang'er are a perfect match.
Han Shu could no longer contain her joy. She had already planned to marry Su Yan'er to Qin Lang, and this further solidified her resolve.
"Master, is this...is this really true?" Han Shu finally confirmed.
"Of course, monks do not lie!"
After saying this, Han Shu really couldn't hold back anymore, "Excellent, excellent, Yan'er, you are truly our Marquis's lucky star!"
Su Yan'er frowned slightly, tilting her head to look at the birth date and time on the paper, and asked in confusion, "Auntie, what does this mean? Is the person with this birth date and time my destined person?"
Han Shu's mouth stretched almost to the back of her ears in a wide grin. "Yes, this person is Yan'er's destined one!"
Han Shu was even excited, carefully placing the paper into her bosom, then taking Su Yan'er's hand and becoming even more affectionate.
As the two turned around, Su Yan'er glanced back at the master, who returned a smile that said "It's all done."
After the two left the Yue Lao Palace, Han Shu was so excited that she seemed to have forgotten that her original purpose for coming here was to calculate the marriage between Qin Wan and the Fifth Prince.
at the same time.
The backyard of Leishan Temple.
"Where are they? Are they ready?" Shen Siyi looked through the window of her room towards the room opposite.
"Ready!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a man with an ugly appearance but a burly build appeared in Shen Siyi's line of sight.
Seeing the man's tall stature, Shen Siyi was secretly delighted, thinking, "Now let's see how you escape."
Leishan Temple is a royal temple; committing adultery here is a grave crime.
Just wait for the man to enter the room for a moment, then bring people to block the door. Regardless of whether anything illicit has happened, being surrounded and sharing a room with him will confirm that the two were having an affair.
Even if the King of Heaven himself came, Qin Wan's reputation would not be able to be preserved.
Even if Brother Jingyu still has feelings for her now, once this matter gets out and everyone knows that Qin Wan is a harlot, Brother Jingyu will definitely despise her.
The more he thought about Shen Siyi, the more he couldn't contain his excitement, wishing that moment would come quickly.
Qin Wan was betrothed to Xiao Jingyan. As everyone knows, Xiao Jingyan is a prince with a poor mind. Shen Siyi was afraid that Qin Wan wanted to use the title of the Fifth Prince's consort to have a secret relationship with Xiao Jingyu.
So, in order to completely shatter Xiao Jingyu's illusions about Qin Wan, she came up with this plan.
Once this is accomplished, she will be no longer a threat.
"You know what to do next, right?" Shen Siyi asked one last time to confirm.
“I understand. Once this person goes inside, I will lead my men to surround the room!” the nun replied.
Shen Siyi's lips curled into a mischievous smile, as if success was just around the corner.
"Remember, once you're inside, no matter how well they've accomplished their mission, strip Qin Wan naked first. That way, she won't be able to explain herself no matter what!"
"Yes, this humble nun will remember the words of the Fourth Prince's Consort!"
The nun's address of "Fourth Prince's Consort" truly touched Shen Siyi's heart. She was pleased to hear this and immediately rewarded the nun with a large pearl.
"Thank you, Fourth Prince's Consort!"
The nun was delighted, and her eyes lit up as she looked at the pearl.
The man pushed open the door and entered. The nuns were also ready, waiting for a moment before they went forward to surround him.
But before they could act, the man came out of the room again.
"Where is everyone? Nobody's here. Who am I supposed to do this to?" the man muttered under his breath.
Seeing all this, Shen Siyi found it strange, so she rushed out of the room and headed straight for the room where Qin Wan was being held.
After a thorough search, Qin Wan was nowhere to be found, not even her dirty clothes.
Shen Siyi suddenly realized that she had been tricked by Qin Wan; Qin Wan had never even entered the room.
"Damn Qin Wan, today..."
"What a beautiful young lady, are you waiting for me?"
Before Shen Siyi could finish her curses, the man with a lewd look on his face rubbed his hands together and walked towards her.
"roll!"
Here.
Qin Wan went around from the backyard to the back mountain of Leishan Temple, and after waiting for a while, she finally saw Wan Shuang arrive.
"Miss, Miss, your servant is here!" Wan Shuang finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Qin Wan. The road was winding and she was afraid that she had taken the wrong turn. Fortunately, she saw her mistress.
"Has anyone noticed?" Qin Wan pulled Wan Shuang to a secluded spot and kept looking back in the direction Wan Shuang had come from.
Wan Shuang caught her breath and said, "No, there were many worshippers at Leishan Temple today, and the nuns in the back courtyard were all busy in the front. No one was in the back courtyard, and no one noticed me!"
As she spoke, Wan Shuang handed the plain clothes in her hands to Qin Wan and said, "Miss, the clothes have been brought, but where should we change into them?"
Wan Shuang glanced around. Although no one was around, her young lady was of noble birth and couldn't possibly change clothes here. Looking at her young lady's dirty clothes, Wan Shuang was in a dilemma.
But changing clothes isn't the main thing right now; digging up some bamboo shoots for my grandmother to use in medicine is the most important thing we came here for.
"Put your clothes away, you can change later. Follow me, watch your step!"
"Yes!"
Wan Shuang was puzzled, but did not ask any further questions, and simply followed behind Qin Wan.
On a tree not far away.
"Your Highness, were those the people just now Miss Qin and her maid? What are they doing here?" Fei Peng, a guard beside Xiao Jingyan, asked.
"I don't know, let's follow them and see!"
After saying that, Xiao Jingyan jumped down from the tree.
Fei Peng looked at Xiao Jingyan, who had already walked far away, and then at the rabbit he had hunted after waiting for a long time in the opposite direction, and asked, "Your Highness, do you still want the rabbit we just hunted?"
