Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 910 The second step to resolve the crisis

There were different opinions in the capital. Although there were all kinds of opinions, they did not dare to bite Lu Mingyong anymore.

At this moment, some people also suspected that there was something behind the murder of King Qi and Duke Yue in the street that day.

This was an east wind that relieved the predicament of Prince Qi's Palace and the Duke of Yue's Palace. After Lu Mingyu and Changsun Tao borrowed this east wind, they set about resolving the predicament in front of them.

On this day, the couple called Qin Ning over to make tea and wine together.

After Qin Ning saluted and said hello, he was invited to sit down opposite.

Changsun Tao was sitting cross-legged, lighting a charcoal fire in a small red clay stove.

Lu Mingyu was too bulky to sit on his knees, so he had to sit on a chair. She waved, and Lu Yi led the little girl in with several pottery urns, placed the pottery urns on the coffee table aside, and introduced them one by one.

"It's from pine needles."

"This is from bamboo leaves."

"This is plum blossom."

After saying that, Lu Yi stepped aside.

Changsun Tao saw the charcoal fire in the stove burning and asked: "Qin Ning, this is the fresh snow water that the princess ordered people to pick early in the morning. The tea includes Maojian, Yinzhen, Guapian, Houkui... What do you like? of?"

Qin Ning said: "Hou Kui and Song Zhen Xue, what do you think of the prince?"

Lu Mingyu continued: "Brother Qin's taste is similar to mine. I also like Houkui. Coupled with this snow water with the fragrance of pine needles, it tastes very good."

Changsun Tao smiled and said: "The princess is greedy."

Lu Mingyu sighed: "You can't eat this, you can't drink that. I've been drinking a lot of soup and water all day long. How can I not be greedy?"

Changsun Tao put the jar of pine needle snow water on the small stove and simmered it. He stood up and brought out a small jar and said, "Of course I won't forget you. I'll make you some scented tea."

Qin Ning looked at the two people who got along so harmoniously with warmth in his eyes: "The prince and the princess are still the same as when I met them last year. There is no change."

Changsun Tao held Lu Mingyu's Rouyi with his backhand, and looked back at her seriously: "As long as she doesn't dislike her, I don't want to change in this life."

Lu Mingyu burst into laughter and said, "Then behave well."

Changsun Tao let go of Lu Mingyu's hand and asked Qin Ning: "Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin only have one child, you. They should be worried now, right?"

Qin Ning said with some embarrassment: "Yes, I am in a hurry. However, my marriage has been settled, and now I am in the stage of finding a matchmaker to discuss the matter. The target is my mother's distant brother's youngest daughter."

"My cousin is a scholar and is now a teacher at Hongwen Academy in the capital. I met my cousin once when I was a child. She is a well-educated and sensible girl. My father and mother both agree that Xu is good."

Lu Mingyu sighed: "I originally wanted to bring you and Xiaoqian together, but it seems there is no chance."

Qin Ning was a little embarrassed, so Chang Sun Tao came to the rescue: "Don't listen to her. She is free now and is thinking about matchmaking every day. She wishes she could even match Xiao Hei and Xiao Hong."

Lu Mingyu said: "Although it is the matchmaker's words ordered by my parents, I see that Brother Qin seems to be very satisfied with this marriage."

Qin Ning nodded slightly: "Marry a virtuous wife, and live in a comfortable home. My cousin's conditions are very good in all aspects, and she knows everything about her. I have nothing to be dissatisfied with."

Lu Mingyu felt a little sad. Nowadays, when getting married, most people follow their parents' orders to find matchmakers and pay attention to being well-matched. In fact, personal wishes are not the most important consideration.Even she and Changsun Tao were brought together by an imperial edict.

No wonder there are so many crazy men and resentful women in the world. How many people are just strangers before they get married. If love cannot last for a long time, how can we not resent each other?
So getting married is a gamble, a gamble that you can meet someone with good character.

Changsun Tao nodded: "A virtuous wife has few troubles, and a son is filial to his father and has a generous heart. The words left behind by our ancestors are quite true. I also married a princess, so I live a peaceful life."

Qin Ning smiled and said: "There are very few divine couples like the prince and princess in this world. I am very envious of them."

Changsun Tao was not in a hurry to speak. He was busy with what he was doing carefully. He brewed a cup of monkey wine and pushed it over. Then he said: "Responsibility, loyalty, respect, and love are the most basic things a man should have for his wife. Qin Ning, this king I wish you happiness."

Qin Ning took the tea cup with both hands, took a sip carefully, and praised: "It's really good tea!"

Changsun Tao carefully handed the brewed scented tea to Lu Mingyu and asked: "Qin Ning, do you know the hermit? What do you think of the frequent strange fog in the capital that harms people?"

Qin Ning thought for a moment and said: "I remember that Yang Qian mentioned the hermit in Izumo in "Canghai Fengyunlu". This hermit has a unique trick, which is called 'Mist Hidden' by outsiders. It is related to what happened in the capital these few times. Things are quite similar.”

Lu Mingyu picked up a volume of ancient manuscripts from the coffee table, flipped it to the corresponding position, and handed it to Changsun Tao, who then handed it to Qin Ning: "This is what Lu Xi and I did before the prince and Duke of Yue destroyed the East Street. What my aunt saw in the white mist.”

Qin Ning took the ancient card and looked at it attentively. His expression became more and more solemn and serious. Finally, the veins on his forehead were beating, and he was extremely angry.

He clenched his fists, his eyes were scarlet, and he cursed in a hoarse voice: "He is heartbroken! How cruel!"

Lu Mingyu lowered his eyebrows and said, "Yes, there is no humanity at all."

Changsun Tao looked solemn and said in a low voice: "I am now a father. When I think about what happens to my children, my anger cannot be suppressed. But there are still some things in the world that are worse than animals. They can do it. This kind of thing."

Lu Mingyu also had a solemn expression: "Brother Qin, I asked you to come here today because I want you to help us dig out such a person who is worse than an animal and let him receive the punishment he deserves!"

Qin Ning responded solemnly: "I will never give up even if I die."

The three of them discussed for a whole day, and after agreeing on the rules for what to do next, they went their separate ways.

Rumors in the city are getting more and more intense. Some people attribute the fog to strange forces and chaotic gods. Everyone is panicked and the people stay behind closed doors.

Seeing that things were about to get out of hand, Emperor Yuanwu invited Master Qingchen to Tai Chi Hall one morning and asked Master Qingchen what he thought of Bai Wu.

Master Qingchen clasped his hands together and said a motto: "Everything in the world has no appearance, appearance comes from the heart. Things that can be seen are actually non-things, and things that can be felt are actually non-things."

Emperor Yuanwu humbly asked for advice: "Master, do you mean that this matter is man-made?"

Master Qingchen nodded: "Your Majesty, ghosts are born from the heart, and there are people with evil intentions lurking in the undercurrent of the capital."

Master Qingchen has been in Beijing for less than a year, but he is worshiped by countless good men and women. Every word he says is like a secret that ordinary people cannot break.

His words are, in some respects, more convincing than the official explanation.

So Emperor Yuanwu discussed with the courtiers for a long time and decided to allocate a team of troops from the Qilin Guards to investigate the matter.

At the same time, Yang Qian's new work came out, causing an uproar in the capital.
