Quick Transmigration: The Green Tea Mistress's Guide to Seduction - A Master's Handbook

Baiyun Temple is built on a hilltop in the northern suburbs of Beijing. There are few farmhouses nearby, only dense forests.

Qin Lingrong was already bursting with excitement, but he still patiently led Xie Qingyu to the backyard.

Seeing Xie Qingyu stop and look puzzled, Qin Lingrong patiently explained, "The area in front is just a regular place for praying and burning incense. There are famous monks in this temple who usually meditate in the backyard. They happen to be here at the moment, so I'll take you to meet them."

Qin Lingrong's statement is completely flawless.

There is indeed a famous monk at Baiyun Temple, but he usually travels around and it's rare to meet him.

Using a temple as a place for their filthy deeds, no wonder Qin Shenzhi said he couldn't find it.

Xie Qingyu carefully noted down the places and passages she passed, and had also mentally activated the system to open the system shop.

Before putting yourself in danger, you must first have the ability to protect yourself.

But she won't use it unless absolutely necessary.

Qin Shenzhi should not break his promise; he will not let go of this good opportunity to send Qin Lingrong in.

Xie Qingyu followed Qin Lingrong while keeping an eye on her surroundings.

As they approached the backyard, Qin Lingrong quickened his pace, even reaching out to put his arm around Xie Qingyu's shoulder to prevent her from stopping.

“High monks are not always present, so let’s have him tell your wife about the future today.” A smile had already appeared on Qin Lingrong’s face.

After many twists and turns, we arrived at the deserted backyard. There wasn't even a single novice monk there; it was eerily quiet.

After crossing the door, you could faintly hear laughter coming from inside the house.

Xie Qingyu's heart tightened.

Qin Lingrong still had his arm around Xie Qingyu's shoulder, showing no intention of letting go. "Master, my wife and I have arrived."

The faint laughter inside seemed to have stopped. Qin Lingrong acted as if he had never heard the sound at all, and led Xie Qingyu toward the door.

Xie Qingyu looked back, but there was no one at the courtyard gate.

The door to that room was just a stone's throw away.

The silence was unsettling.

Xie Qingyu stopped in front of the door. Qin Lingrong had given up on making excuses and simply embraced Xie Qingyu as they walked forward without saying a word.

Xie Qingyu could almost reach out and push the door open.

If you get close, you can hear sobbing sounds coming from inside, like someone trying to help.

"Please, Madam."

Qin Lingrong pushed the door open with one hand.

At the critical moment, a voice came from inside, "Help!"

It was like a cry before death.

Finally, commotion came from the courtyard gate. A squad of Imperial Guards entered and immediately surrounded the courtyard and houses.

Xie Qingyu immediately covered Qin Lingrong's mouth, preventing him from informing the people inside the room.

Qin Lingrong's eyes widened instantly, unable to believe that Xie Qingyu would actually do that.

Before he could break free, he was held down by two Imperial Guards.

Qin Shenzhi led the other Imperial Guards straight inside. Xie Qingyu listened to the sounds coming from inside and silently let go of his hand.

At this point, it would be useless for Qin Lingrong to say anything more.

"It's you!" someone inside exclaimed in surprise, probably recognizing Qin Shenzhi.

Hongdou, who had been sent away by Qin Shenzhi after getting off the car, also came over at this time. Upon seeing Xie Qingyu, she quickly came to her side and led her outside.

"The second young master said that the madam should go first," Hongdou said in a low voice.

Xie Qingyu knew without being told that she should leave first.

Without glancing at Qin Lingrong, who was being held down on the ground by the Imperial Guards, Xie Qingyu and Hongdou walked out of the courtyard together.

The Imperial Guards pretended not to see them leave.

Xie Qingyu breathed a sigh of relief, pretending not to notice the vicious gaze on her back.

The carriage that brought Xie Qingyu and the others has already returned.

Xie Qingyu and Hongdou arrived at the front hall, where people were burning incense and praying to Buddha. Xie Qingyu blended in without drawing attention.

Outside the front hall, there was an inconspicuous carriage.

It was arranged by Qin Shenzhi.

Xie Qingyu and Hongdou boarded the carriage together and gradually moved away from the temple, only then did she feel at ease.

“I happened to run into the Second Young Master when I was shopping. He instructed me to bring Madam back to the manor first, no matter what happens.” Hongdou gave herself a reasonable explanation for her actions.

Xie Qingyu nodded, seemingly believing her, and did not ask any further questions.

The thought of what she glimpsed through the crack when Qin Shenzhi kicked open the door is utterly appalling.

Those who appear human on the surface actually engage in despicable acts behind the scenes. Even the girls in brothels are probably cleaner than them.

No wonder these people have such a good relationship; they share the same secrets and hobbies, and they are more united than most people.

However, things may change after today.

If Qin Shenzhi had thought of preventing those people from meeting Qin Lingrong outside, and instead escorting them separately so they wouldn't know that Qin Lingrong was also among those arrested, then internal conflicts would naturally have arisen.

They would think that Qin Lingrong had betrayed them.

It's just a matter of whether Qin Shenzhi can come up with this method.

Xie Qingyu left the Prince's mansion with Qin Lingrong; this fact could not be kept secret.

Now that the two of them haven't come back together, they naturally need an excuse.

After returning to the manor, Xie Qingyu went directly to the Lady of the Marquis's residence.

"This is a peace pouch that your daughter-in-law got for your mother at Baiyun Temple." Xie Qingyu put in the talisman that Hongdou brought back when she went to buy it, as if it were specially requested for the Lady Hou.

"Didn't you go out with Arong? Why did you come back by yourself first?" Lady Hou asked as expected.

"After dinner, my husband said he wanted to go to Baiyun Temple to offer incense. After we went there, he heard that a high monk was currently at the temple and he wanted to consult him. However, women are not allowed to approach the inner courtyard of the temple, so my husband told me to come back first." Xie Qingyu made up a few words.

"The eminent monk of Baiyun Temple..." Madam Hou thought for a moment, feeling that Qin Lingrong's search for the eminent monk was a bit strange.

She knew perfectly well what kind of person her own son was.

What could he possibly need to consult a high-ranking monk about?

She probably still doesn't like Xie Qingyu.

Thinking of this, the enthusiasm on Lady Hou's face disappeared.

"In that case, you should go back and rest." The Lady of the Marquis has been quite bothered by the two new concubines that the Marquis has taken recently, so she doesn't have time to bother Xie Qingyu.

After leaving Madam Hou's place, Xie Qingyu returned to her own courtyard.

Tingling stayed inside the courtyard, completely unaware of what had happened outside that day.

I'm just curious what good food Xie Qingyu ate with her son-in-law today, since she barely touched her dinner after coming back.

Not only that, it was already very late, but her young lady showed no sign of going to sleep, and the courtyard gate was not even closed.

It wasn't until Tingling reminded her that Xie Qingyu allowed the courtyard gate to be closed.

The news of Qin Lingrong's arrest had not reached the mansion by evening.
