Rebirth and Revenge: The Imperial Master’s Pampering of Me is Addicting Me
Chapter 24 Never Truly Trust Someone You Don’t Know Very Well
After Xu Han said this, even the emperor couldn't help but think of the three sincere kowtows. He raised his lips slightly in a good mood and had a better impression of the Mu family.
But the good mood only lasted for a while, and soon he felt a headache again and sighed.
Because the Empress Dowager heard about what happened at the Princess's residence, she sent her personal nanny to invite him to the Cining Palace.
Not to mention how the emperor was worried about how to deal with his old mother's accountability, Mu Qingli had already swallowed the antidote and woke up, and the poisonous insect in his body was also cleared out by Qilan.
Of course, there are medicinal powders in this world that can disguise illnesses, but she has never heard of one that can disguise itself as a nightmare. Fortunately, her master accidentally got a poisonous insect a few years ago, which came in handy.
When Mu Qingli opened his eyes, there was a rare hint of confusion in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure after seeing Qilan, and then sat up while rubbing his eyebrows.
"Have you left home? Where are you now? Mother must be very sad, right?"
It was more than just sadness. The lady almost fainted several times. If the young lady had not told her in advance to carry heart-protecting pills with her and put them in water for the lady to drink from time to time, something really could have happened.
Qilan sighed in her heart and was smart not to say it in front of her. Instead, she comforted her softly.
"Don't worry, miss. Madam is fine. When we left, Madam Fang was worried and had temporarily stayed at the mansion. Don't worry too much."
Mu Qingli also breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his eyes and sighed softly.
From the very beginning, her plan was destined to make her parents sad, but she really had no choice. The war would end in a few years, and by then, her father would be stationed in Beijing. His Majesty would soon change his attitude and take action against their family.
She had only a few years left, but she couldn't afford to waste a single moment! From the moment she accepted the invitation and went to the Princess's residence, to choosing a location so the people in the pavilion would notice her, to angering Princess Hui'an step by step, she had planned everything.
In the previous life, someone fell into the water at this banquet, but this time she was the first to expose her presence and attracted Hui'an's attention, making him a hostage, which could be considered as clearing the cause and effect.
She quickly gathered her thoughts and turned her head to ask what was going on.
"Are we there yet?"
Qilan didn't dare to hide it, and quickly spoke softly, her eyes full of worry.
"We're almost there. I was worried about your health, so I gave you the antidote to get rid of the poisonous insects as soon as we entered the suburbs of Beijing. This plan is really too risky. What if it causes any damage to your body? What should we do?"
The pain in his body and head was too obvious, but Mu Qingli had gotten used to this kind of pain in his previous life. Apart from some cold sweat on his forehead and a pale face, his expression was almost normal.
She waved her hand nonchalantly, wiped the sweat from her forehead with a towel and began to make arrangements.
"I've asked my brother to prepare a replacement carriage at the farm. When we get there, have Father Fu park the carriage in the backyard. We'll change carriages and go somewhere else. I'm going to meet someone."
Why are you acting without authorization again, Miss? You can't do that!
Qilan was so stunned that she almost jumped up, and then she asked her back with tears in her eyes.
"Miss, who are you going to see? You're being so sneaky! If people find out you're not sick, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor!"
Mu Qingli didn't explain too much, just glared at her gently in a gentle tone.
"Be good and go!"
Qilan stared at her for a while and finally gave in. She lowered her head and stuck her head out to talk to Fu Chen. She even covered the carriage curtains well so that no one could see Mu Qingli who had already woken up inside.
Fu Chen was also confused, but he still agreed as planned, and the car soon arrived at the farm.
However, no one noticed that an almost identical carriage was also parked at the back door of the manor. Fu Chen showed the Mu family's token to attract the attention of the people in the manor, until he saw the two figures quietly get on the carriage out of the corner of his eye.
The coachman who had been waiting for a long time skillfully pulled off the decorations on the carriage. With just a few quick movements, he made the outside of the carriage look brand new. He then drove away from the manor and headed towards Qingxia Mountain not far away.
Fu Chen glanced calmly at the direction they were going, then frowned and drove away in his carriage, but they were not going in the same direction.
He disappeared from Jinghua with his men just to take advantage of the opportunity to reach the training location chosen for him by Mu Qingli. He had secretly visited it before and it was indeed a natural training ground, and most importantly, it was hidden and unknown to others.
There is also a special secret passage that can be used to transport supplies at any time without attracting other people's attention. Even from the outside, you wouldn't think there is such a big valley hidden inside. I really don't know how that girl found such a good place.
But he was still worried about Mu Qingli and his two daughters going out alone, and hoped that the helpers he called could take good care of them.
Fu Chen's carriage quickly disappeared from the eyes of the people in Beijing, and the speeding carriage over there stopped directly at the foot of the mountain.
Mu Qingli had changed into a simple and inconspicuous outfit, put on a veil, and pulled Qilan out of the carriage, speaking in a low voice to the coachman.
"Take the carriage back and contact my brother to put away all the things in the carriage and not show them to others. Then you can rest for a while before returning to Beijing."
Ma Cha nodded repeatedly and gestured to her with his hand before leaving.
In order to keep the plan confidential, this mute driver was rescued from her brother's hands with great difficulty. She was at ease using him even though he could not speak or write.
After watching the people leave, Mu Qingli took Qilan and walked quickly for a while, passing the foot of Qingxia Mountain and going straight to the neighboring Geya Mountain.
Qilan was so curious that she turned her head to glance at Qingxia Mountain behind her.
"Miss, so the place you really want to go is Geya Mountain? Then why didn't you just ask him to stop the carriage at Geya Mountain?"
Mu Qingli walked quickly and did not forget to give her some advice.
"That's what they call a cunning rabbit with three burrows. Never truly trust someone you're not close to, especially don't tell them where you're hiding. You can't predict if they might suddenly betray you for whatever reason."
Qilan nodded thoughtfully. She couldn't understand the deeper meaning of it at the moment, but that didn't stop her from remembering her mistress's words firmly.
Mu Qingli said no more and climbed up Geya Mountain as quickly as possible. Soon she saw the somewhat dilapidated Taoist temple on the top. She took Qilan in directly and handed over a silver ingot to indicate that she wanted to stay in the temple for one night.
There are only a dozen Taoist nuns and a few little Taoist boys in the Taoist temple. They have a few acres of farmland and make a living from these and the incense money from the villagers at the foot of the mountain who come up to worship from time to time.
Everyone in the Taoist temple was delighted to suddenly receive such a large ingot of silver. They immediately arranged for her to live in a more remote western wing according to her request, and even provided her with dinner.
But no one noticed that in addition to the two female guests who visited today, their Taoist temple had already had guests who came uninvited.
