[R18] Dali Temple.Qing (Shuangjie solves the case 1v1) – “Dali Temple. Qing (Shuangjie solves the case 1v1)” Chapter 21 Lake Tour [English]

The next day, Lin Wanqing got up early.

Almost half a year after she entered Shengjing as an official, the emperor personally issued an invitation. This was a pomp she had never seen before, so she did not dare to neglect it.

Taiye Pool is located in the center of the inner court of Shengjing City and was the most important pool garden for the royal family in the Southern Dynasties.The entire Daming Palace is built along the lake, and the Imperial Garden is also located beside it.

It is now May and the beginning of summer, and the green mountains and green waters around the lake are dotted with greenery.The lakeside is full of delicate hollyhocks and azure flowers, the water hibiscus in the lake is in bud, and the scenery among the rippling blue waves is so beautiful.

Lin Wanqing followed a group of colleagues and was led by a group of maids towards the lake.

Just as she was walking, Lin Wanqing discovered that her colleagues were all led by the maid to a boat docked by the lake, but she was taken to a pavilion by the water.

There is a round table under the eaves of the vermilion-colored roof, with two people sitting facing her.

A young woman is peeling lychees with her head down.She was dressed in a light crimson palace dress, with black hair on her temples, dotted with two carnelian steps, a pair of delicate and soft jade hands, and a smile on her face as she looked at her.

The other old lady wearing a dark blue floor-length dress and a lapis lazuli hairpin should be the Queen Mother.

Lin Wanqing felt uneasy, but at least he stabilized himself and walked up to the two of them and gave a decent and generous salute.

“Royal Grandmother,” Wei Shu smiled unexpectedly and put the lychees on the small plate in front of the Queen Mother, “This is the Lin Lushi that Shu’er told you about.”

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother laughed heartily twice and asked the maid to bring Lin Wanqing a stool.

“The Aijia heard from Shu’er that you persuaded Jingche to accept the lychee soup that day?”

Lin Wanqing was stunned for a moment, her mind was spinning a thousand times, and a slightly embarrassed smile appeared on her face.

The Queen Mother thought she was too nervous, so she just smiled and asked someone to give her tea.

“Lin Lushi didn’t know that the grandson of the Ai family had a temper that was both naughty and awkward. Many times, the Ai family used soft and hard tactics on many things, but no matter what he said, it didn’t work.”

The Queen Mother sighed, looked at Lin Wanqing with approval and said: “You are the first person who can persuade him.”

Lin Wanqing’s hand shook as he was reaching out to take the teapot, almost getting burned.

She knew that Su Moyi was naughty and awkward, but what about the Queen Mother’s expectant eyes?

Is it possible that he still wants to train himself to be her confidant and secretly report to his boss?

Lin Wanqing’s heart shivered, and she suddenly felt sad.

Su Moyi couldn’t afford to offend her, and the Queen Mother couldn’t afford to offend her even more.

When the Queen Mother saw that Lin Wanqing was just drinking tea and not answering, she thought she didn’t understand the meaning of her words, so she leaned forward and said to her warmly: “Jing Che’s matter…”

“Royal Grandmother!” A slightly sullen shout came from outside the pavilion.

The Queen Mother changed the topic and said seriously: “Let him make the decision himself.”

Lin Wanqing: “…”

In the midst of this inner curse, a wisp of azure robes had already flashed before his eyes.

Su Moyi walked straight into the small pavilion and walked to Lin Wanqing’s side, followed by the majestic jailer.The dog wagged its tail flatteringly at him, and went to rub her hand, but was dragged back by Su Moyi.

Perhaps it was the color of her robe, but Lin Wanqing felt that Su Moyi seemed extremely haggard today.The handsome face was still as gloomy as ever, but the sharp black eyes of the past seemed to be covered with a layer of fog and lost their energy.

The most terrible thing is that the two groups of black and blue in Mr. Su’s eyes almost fell to his chin.

Wei Shu was happy to see Su Moyi and wanted to make him sit down.However, before his hand touched Su Moyi’s sleeve, he dodged it.

“I’m sorry, princess,” the cold voice was polite and distant, “I have a mysophobia.”

The jailer also bared his teeth at Wei Shu.

The atmosphere became awkward again, and Lin Wanqing had no choice but to come out to save the situation.

She looked at the lychees on the plate in front of her one by one, picked up one and said: “People in prison have some unusual quirks. They are just forced by their duties. Princess, don’t take it to heart.”

After saying that, she handed a lychee to Su Moyi’s eyes with both hands and said with a smile: “Sir, take one. This lychee is the neatest one among them.”

“Pfft–” The Queen Mother couldn’t hold it back for the first time when she heard this and laughed.

Whoever advises people to eat lychees should not say they are the sweetest and freshest, but the neatest.No wonder the little bastard liked this interesting Lin Lu story.

Although Mr. Su, who had a sullen face, did not take the lychee from her hand, he still reluctantly took back the cold air that could repel people thousands of miles away.

Lin Wanqing had known that he would not be able to pick it up. Seeing that his goal was achieved, he just lowered his head and peeled the lychees.Anyway, she was really greedy for this bite and was too embarrassed to take it in front of the queen mother and princess.

“I heard that Lin Lu was working in Jingzhao Mansion before?” the Queen Mother asked.

Lin Wanqing nodded and said, “I stayed in Jingzhao Mansion for half a year.”

The Queen Mother was thoughtful and asked: “Then how did you get to Dali Temple?”

“Thanks to Mr. Su for not giving up and willing to let me serve by his side.”

The Queen Mother was stunned and gave Su Moyi a slow and strange look, “The Ai family has never known that anyone else can fall into Master Su’s eyes?”

Su Moyi drank tea with a cold face and didn’t answer.

Lin Wanqing likes sweets, and her favorite fruit is lychees.In addition, lychees are produced in Lingnan and are not easy to keep fresh. There are not many times when ordinary people can eat them.Now I took advantage of this opportunity and took a few more pills.

The three of them were talking casually, with Su Moyi sitting aside holding a dog as the background.

Seeing that Lin Wanqing had almost finished eating, the Queen Mother suddenly suggested to Su Moyi: “It’s midsummer now. The water hibiscus in Taiye Pond is in bloom. It’s hard for Jing Che to rest. Do you want to go on a boat to enjoy the flowers on the lake?”

Su Moyi looked down at the teapot in her hand and said lightly, “I won’t go.”

The Queen Mother knew He’s temper, so she was not upset at being rejected directly. She turned to Lin Wanqing and said, “Is Lin Lushi interested in accompanying the Ai family?”

*
The painted boat sailed slowly on the lake, surrounded by lotus leaves and lotus flowers, and the boat made a rustling sound.

Su Moyi felt that there might be no solution to the medicine she was given by Song Zhengxing.

He led the jailer and stood on the side of the boat, looking at the lotus leaves touching the sky and the half-opened lotuses in front of him, feeling annoyed.

He had obviously refused, but why did his legs not obey him when he saw Lin Wanqing getting on the boat…

Behind her was the voice of the Queen Mother who was amused by Lin Wanqing, bright and real.

Su Mo recalled the ridiculous dream last night and felt very unhappy.

The jailer who was lying on the side also looked at the flowers in the lake absentmindedly. He tried to turn around several times but was dragged back by Su Moyi.He tightened the rope on his hand, for fear that even the warden would betray him.

“Wow! So cute!” This was Lin Wanqing’s voice.

It seems that as long as she is more excited and happy, her speaking voice will be different from usual, and she will sound a little more coquettish like a daughter.

“You touch it.” The Queen Mother smiled from ear to ear, and her voice was somewhat gentle.

“Hmph!” Su Moyi sneered, thinking that Lin Wanqing knew how to make people happy when she had a good temper.

“Can I give you a hug?” Lin Wanqing asked.

Hearing the word “hug”, Su Moyi’s heart trembled, and a bad premonition quietly spread.

The rope under his hand suddenly moved, followed by a roar that echoed through the sky.The warden seemed to smell something that excited him. A strong tail swept wildly and pulled Su Moyi around irritably.

At the same time, a harsh cat meow came from behind, shrill and full of aggression.

Then, Su Moyi felt that the rope in his hand was loose, and he couldn’t hold it when it slipped through his palm, like a slippery snake.

“Ah!!!” someone screamed.

Then there was the sound of heavy objects falling into the water, two crashes, one after the other.

Su Moyi only saw two huge waves.

Wei Shu on the side turned pale with fright, her lips were trembling and she was almost speechless.The Queen Mother was also frightened, and she was at a loss for words with the Persian cat in her arms.

“Come, come! Come!” Wei Shu was the first to react. She stumbled towards the stern of the ship to call the guards.

However, just after running a few steps, there was another sound of rushing water in my ears.

A piece of sky-blue robe passed the railing of the boat and fell straight into the water.

“Su…Prince Su…”

Wei Shu stopped suddenly and looked at Su Moyi in disbelief as she jumped into the lake.

*
Su Moyi followed Lin Wanqing into the water.

The moment she fell into the water, her body reacted faster than her thoughts.

After Lin Wanqing fell into the water, she was hit hard by the warden. Her heart was broken and she almost vomited a mouthful of blood.Before she could take a breath, she choked on a large mouthful of water. Her limbs were immediately gone, leaving only instinctive panic.

The more panicked, the more depressed it became.

The sun above our heads is hot and golden.

The light shining on Su Moyi’s face was like the buzz of honey, which made her heart itch.

A piece of clear water made cold waves. Su Moyi took a deep breath and dived under the water, wrapping his arms around her waist.

A person who is about to lose consciousness has little strength.Lin Wanqing’s eyes were slightly closed and her breathing was weak.

He slapped her hard twice on the back, and she spat out a mouthful of water.

The bun she had combed was loose due to the struggle just now, and the black hair hung down, sticking to her cheeks and neck, making her already white skin look a little less red.

Su Moyi smoothed her hair covering her face and patted her face.

No response.

The curled eyelashes were wetted by the lake water, and there were a few drops of water on them, but they were about to fall.The eyelashes quivered slightly with the beat of he, like two small butterflies soaked by the rain.

The robe was heavily soaked in water, so Su Moyi reached out to untie it.The skirt of his clothes was pulled open a little, revealing his fair back.

Su Moyi was startled. The water droplets on her eyelashes fell to her fingertips. There was the warmth of He’s touch there, and…

There are also some subtle bumps on the skin.

He suddenly remembered the touch of his fingertips when he held that person that night.

It turns out that the marks he touched that night were whip wounds.

Su Moyi suddenly remembered Lin Wanqing’s abnormal behavior in Jingzhao Mansion a month ago, the night Wang Hu was killed.

Is there another explanation?

She is not afraid of being flogged, but she is afraid of having to take off her trousers and robes when being flogged?

The thought of that day in the study was shattered at this moment, and he couldn’t help but list the events before and after he met Lin Wanqing.

The familiar smell on her body.

The woman who disappeared out of thin air in Dali Temple.

The bowl of medicine that Liang Weiping sent a few days ago.

There is also a scarf that I don’t want to take off even though it’s very hot…

On their own, these things are coincidences, but what if they are put together?

His thoughts suddenly became chaotic. Su Moyi lowered her head and looked at the person in her arms. She didn’t think much about it for the time being and took a breath into her mouth first.

She frowned and snorted, regaining some consciousness.

“Relax!”

He leaned over her ear and whispered gentle words, then turned her over, lying on her back, and carried Lin Wanqing to the shore.

For some unknown reason, Su Moyi specifically turned her around when carrying Lin Wanqing ashore.Turn her face and chest toward him, and hold her a little tighter when you get out of the water.

There are already maids on the shore waiting after hearing the news, holding things to cover and wipe.

He hugged Lin Wanqing who was in chaos, took the thin blanket from the maid’s hand, and wrapped her tightly inside and out.

Not far away is a small attic used by the royal family to enjoy the scenery. It is built near the water and is surrounded by bamboo curtains and ashes to protect it from rain.

There was no other place to go, so Su Moyi followed the maid to the attic.

Lin Wanqing also recovered at this time, and struggled to get off the ground wrapped in a thin blanket, her face reddeningly red.

Dry clothes were handed to the two of them, and the maid opened the door of the attic to go in and help them change.There is a difference in status here, so of course Su Moyi goes first to change clothes.

Lin Wanqing found a stone and sat on it, letting the maid help her twist her wet hair.

However, Su Moyi took the clothes handed over by the maid but did not leave. She looked at her from far away with deep eyes.

“Lin Lu just caught the cold a few days ago, and now he’s afraid he’ll catch the cold again if he waits outside.”

he Fu slowed down his speaking speed again, looked at Lin Wanqing and said word by word: “Why don’t we come together.”
