    While reminiscing about the past, Mrs. Qu Chen looked at her daughter who had been in the dust for a few days. After not seeing her for a few days, her daughter looked like a wilted flower. Her hair was disheveled, her clothes had not been changed for several days, and even her face had become darker and thinner.  Why don't you feel distressed.

    "What are you still doing?" She glared at the ladies standing tied up at the door, "Go to the dining room to send a message that the eldest lady is back, and ask Xigui to hurry up and prepare the dishes that these ladies like to eat.  Seeing that the mother-in-law was about to leave, she added: "First, bring a bowl of warm Sydney pear and bird's nest porridge to the young lady to soothe her throat."

    After giving the instructions, he turned to Qin Yao and said, "After you finish the porridge, you can go back to your room to freshen up and freshen up, and we, the ladies, will have something to eat during dinner."

    "Yeah!" Qinyao nodded obediently, thought of something, and asked, "Mom, why don't you see my brother?"

    A sad look appeared on Mr. Qu Chen's face, and he sighed: "I'm sick again. You had a cough the night you went out, and it's gotten worse these days. It's not like you don't know that every spring, your brother gets sick this time.  There’s no way to hide.”

    Hearing this, Qin Yao hurriedly turned around and opened the small baggage she had brought with her. She first took out an object wrapped in silk. She accidentally looked into the baggage and saw a thick stack of "flying money" at the bottom.

    This pile of flying money is quite a considerable amount, with the words "take it as you go" neatly printed on it. It looks no different from the pile she saw on Mangshan Mountain.

    Hey, what is going on? She has obviously declined that young man?

    She frowned and thought again and again, yes, when she came back from Mangshan, she and her master went to a roadside restaurant several times to buy food. The carriage was parked on the roadside, unattended for a while. It must have been that time.

    But neither the master nor she are ordinary people. The master is especially shrewd and suspicious. He can put flying money into her bag under their noses. You can imagine the skill of the other party.

    Mrs. Qu Chen saw that a lot of money suddenly appeared in her daughter's bag, and her daughter looked vaguely uneasy. She hurriedly asked: "Ayao, where did this money come from? Did something happen?"

    Qu Qinyao's heart tightened. Her mother didn't approve of a good girl like her being a Taoist priest. If she knew that she had bumped into a group of strange men in the Mang Mountains, she would be so angry that she would immediately go to the master to settle the score, right?

    "It's nothing." She said without changing her expression and her heart not beating. "Master planned to take this money back to the temple. I think he was in a hurry when he left, so he left it here with me."

    Mrs. Qu Chen stared at her daughter again and again suspiciously. When she saw that her daughter looked calm and did not seem to be hypocritical, she reluctantly put her heart back into her stomach.

    "Such a lot of money is not a small amount. Be careful not to lose it. You can leave it with your mother first. When you return to Qingyun Temple one day, your mother will return it to you."

    Qu Qinyao had expected that her mother would say this. She pouted and gave the stack of flying coins to her mother. She thought of something, slapped her forehead and said, "Look at me, I almost forgot about the business."  The snake demon inner elixir wrapped in cloth was presented to my mother, and her eyes glowed with joy: "Mom, my brother's illness is cured!"

    During dinner, Qu Enze came back. When he saw Qin Yao, he finally felt relieved after having been hanging around for several days.  Hearing that the snake demon inner elixir brought back by Qin Yao could cure his eldest son's illness, he was so happy that he didn't know what to do. When his daughter grew up, she not only learned a lot of skills, but also solved problems at home.

    The family finished dinner in a high mood and went to find Ziyu with pills in hand. As soon as they entered the yard, they heard a harsh cough coming from the house.

    Qu Qinyao felt sad when she heard the coughing sound, as if she was about to cough out all her internal organs. She hurriedly walked two steps into the room, and saw her brother Ziyu sitting in front of the bed, coughing and out of breath.  , his face was a little purple and swollen from holding back.

    The eldest maid Haitang was holding the spittoon aside, and while stroking Ziyu's back, she gently advised him: "I'm not trying to persuade you. You are sick right now and need to recuperate your mind. Why do you have to read a book? You don't want to  As we often say, hard work doesn’t last for a while.”

    Qu Qinyao's eyes fell on the spring stool next to the bed, and she saw a thick stack of classics and history collections on the stool. She sighed secretly. Her brother Ziyu inherited his father's talent for reading and loved to study since he was a child. Mr. Yu, who was enlightened,  He once said that his brother was "a very talented child at a young age, and his future is limitless." He was a rare child prodigy.  It's a pity that I was born with a weak body and was sick for most of the year.

    When he was sixteen years old, his elder brother struggled to get through and was admitted to the imperial examination. However, his health continued to deteriorate. Not to mention continuing to take part in the imperial examination, he could barely even go out and walk around on weekdays.

    Seeing that his brother was so weak, his father had already given up the idea of ??letting him become an official. But his brother was stronger by nature, so how could he be willing to be a useless person hiding in his father's shadow at home?  Therefore, I often study hard behind my parents' back, just hoping thatAs you get older, you will be able to live up to your expectations and one day earn fame.

    Looking at the situation in front of me, my brother is probably secretly preparing for this year’s spring.

    As she thought about it, her heart felt a little astringent, and she called out: "Brother!" Zi Yu looked up when he heard the voice, and his pale face suddenly lit up with joy: "A Yao! You are back!" Haitang also looked happy: "Miss.  !”

    At this time, Mrs. Qu and his wife also entered the house. When they saw the situation in the house, their eyes turned red. Mrs. Qu Chen took out her handkerchief and wiped her tears and said, "My son, why are you doing this?"

    Qu Ziyu forced a smile and waved to Qin Yao: "A Yao, come here and let me take a good look at it. Is that monster easy to deal with? You're not injured, right?"

    Qu Ziyu was born with a delicate and handsome appearance. If he had not been ill, he would have been one of the most beautiful men in Chang'an City. When he smiled, he could still vaguely see the shadow of handsomeness even though he was haggard.

    Qu Qinyao couldn't help but feel sour, and hurriedly stepped forward to sit down next to her brother affectionately, and said with a smile: "This time, my sister not only collected the monsters from Mangshan, but also brought back the inner elixir of the snake monster.  Master said that this snake demon has practiced Taoism for thousands of years. It is a rare treasure that can be found in the world and can best strengthen the body. Brother, just take this inner elixir in a while, and your body will be well."

    A thousand-year-old snake demon?  Qu Ziyu quietly looked at his sister's still childish smile, but he felt a panic in his heart. When he went to Mangshan, he didn't know what kind of dangerous situation his sister encountered. Although his sister had been practicing Taoism for several years, he was only fourteen years old, so what happened?  Which thousand-year-old monster will he be his opponent?  Maybe it would be some kind of desperate struggle.

    At this moment, he didn’t mention anything, and he was only thinking about his own body.  .  .

    His eyes were a little astringent, and he whispered: "Sister"

    When Lin Xiao returned to Siruzhai from Yanbo Pavilion, the night was already getting dark.

    The night of early spring was cold and long, and the smoker was turned on in Siruzhai. Aunt Wen and Tingfeng and several maids were doing needlework under the lamp while they were warming themselves over the fire. Chang Rong would join in the fun from time to time.

    When Lin Xiao entered the room and saw such a warm and cozy scene, his heart warmed, and the previous unhappiness he had with his father was blown away in an instant like light smoke.

    Chang Rong looked up and saw Lin Xiao, quickly stood up and said, "The prince is back."

    Lin Xiao motioned Tingfeng and Pinxue to go down, then took a few sips of the tea that Aunt Wen had brewed, and asked Aunt Wen, "Nanny, has anything gone wrong in the house these days?"

    Wen Gu was confused and said: "There was nothing wrong."

    A strange feeling flashed through Lin Xiao's heart, and after thinking for a while, he said to Chang Rong: "Send someone to Youzhou to inquire about Cui's natal family, especially the girl named Linglong. If anything is found, first  Time tells me."

    Hearing this, Chang Rong knew that the woman named Linglong was the niece brought into the palace by the princess. There was probably something wrong, so he hurriedly responded.

    Thinking of something, he said reluctantly: "Wei Bo came back and said that he had secretly given the money to the female Taoist priest according to Xiao Langjun's instructions. He also said that the female Taoist priest was Lingqu, Taishi of Chang'an.  As for why Enze's biological daughter became a Taoist priest, he has not been able to find out the reason yet. He will inquire about it carefully in a few days and then report it to the husband."

    Lin Xiao looked at Chang Rong's faintly disapproving expression, and felt a little embarrassed for some reason. He coughed lightly and said calmly: "I know."

    But Aunt Wen listened in confusion, female Taoist priest?  money?  She looked at Lin Xiao in surprise and said, "Your Majesty, when did you get to know a female Taoist priest?"

    You must have been deceived by those women from all walks of life, right?

    When Lin Xiao saw Aunt Wen's expression, he knew she had misunderstood. He smiled, and when he wanted to elaborate, he saw that it was getting late, so he stood up and said, "Nanny, I have to go to Duke Lu's Mansion today. Let's  Let’s talk about it in detail another day.”
