Chapter 61.2 – I Know That Person
Qi Yang brought Lu Qipei to Huguo Temple. She didn’t just come here for a date, but also to fulfill her vows.
“I can’t remember when it was. Back then, I had just found out some news about you, and didn’t know that you were already gone. I happened to be accompanying my Royal Brother’s wife to offer incense at Huguo Temple. So I made a wish in front of Buddha, hoping that our fate together would continue forever.”
When Qi Yang talked about the past, she felt a little downhearted. “Instead, I found out a few days later that you had been killed by Lu Qicheng. At that time, I only felt that Buddha could not be trusted.”
At that time, aside from making a wish, Qi Yang also drew a fortune stick. It said that she would get her wish. This made her very happy for a few days, but in the end, she got cold water poured on her head. She was so angry she almost ran to Huguo Temple to smash the Buddha’s golden statue.
Of course, those angry thoughts only stayed in her heart for a short while, and then she was overwhelmed by grief.
Qi Yang wasn’t the type to vent on those who were unrelated; she would go after the culprit. Lu Qipei also knew what happened afterwards – her brother died just like that.
Lu Qipei couldn’t help but laugh when she finished hearing Qi Yang’s story. She solemnly said, “Now, it seems that Buddha really didn’t lie to you.” Then, she leaned towards Qi Yang’s ear and whispered, “Confucius said not to talk about supernatural things, but the fact that we get to do things over once again might have been because of the Buddha’s blessing.”
Qi Yang’s ear felt a little ticklish from Lu Qipei’s breath, and she dodged slightly to the side. “That’s why I came here to fulfill my vows.”
The two of them entered Huguo Temple as they talked. It happened to be the first day of New Year, so there were quite a lot of people who came there to offer incense that day. The two followed the crowd to the main hall, then knelt in front of Buddha next to each other and sincerely fulfilled their vows. They also found the temple’s monks and donated a lot of incensed oil.
After finishing the old business, Qi Yang also became a lot more relaxed. After coming out of the main hall, she took Lu Qipei for a stroll around the temple.
As they walked, Lu Qipei suddenly laughed, causing Qi Yang to look to the side. She pointed to the back mountain and smiled, “When I first returned, I wanted to run away, but I was afraid that people would see through my intention. Finally, I came to Huguo Temple under the excuse of offering incense, and slipped away from the back of the mountain.”
Qi Yang felt amused and helpless when she heard it, thinking that her Prince Consort was truly so good-tempered that she didn’t think of getting revenge when she came back to this life. If it were her, she would have first gotten a packet of poison and send to hell those people in the Lu family who had arranged for her death!
However, she wouldn’t say such murderous words in this quiet place of Buddhism.
They casually changed the topic and continued chatting again. They walked to a secluded spot, intending to find a quiet place to talk about serious business. And they did find a secluded place, but unexpectedly, someone had gotten there first and occupied the spot.
Qi Yang saw the beautiful woman in luxurious clothes from afar, and couldn’t help but frown. “Why are we meeting her again!?”
Lu Qipei heard Qi Yang’s words and followed her line of sight – she also felt that the woman looked familiar. After thinking about it, she remembered, “Isn’t that the Third Prince’s consort? Did she also come to the temple to offer incense? But why did she come to such a remote place?”
With how the fight was going in the northern border, even though the Third Prince was only supervising the army behind the scenes, the danger was something that could be imagined. It wasn’t strange for the Third Prince’s consort to come to Huguo Temple to pray for blessings. The two of them had guessed a little when they ran into her carriage at the city’s gates.

But praying was praying, and offering incense was offering incense. However, why would the Third Prince’s consort come to this secluded place alone?
For a moment, Qi Yang suspected that her Third Brother was wearing a green hat1, but considering how cowardly the consort was, she realized that she couldn’t do such a thing. She just bumped into her and was a little curious, so she said to Lu Qipei, “I think she looks like she’s waiting for someone. Why don’t we stay here and wait to see who she’s waiting for.”
Lu Qipei gave Qi Yang a subtle look when she heard her words, feeling as is Her Royal Highness The Princes was gloating and was planning to “help” her Royal Brother catch the adultery happening. In the end, Qi Yang noticed it and glared at her, and she could only bitterly withdraw her thoughts.
The two of them didn’t go closer; they found a hidden spot with good view and waited for the Third Prince’s consort from afar.
Sure enough, after a short time passed, they saw a figure approaching slowly. But different from what they thought before, the person who came was not a man, but a slim girl.
She walked directly to the Third Prince’s consort, but the latter gave her a strange and cautious look. This was obviously the first time they had met. But the person who came was obviously prepared, and after a few words, the Third Prince’s consort had dropped her guard and showed an anxious look again…
Those two were whispering in the distance; Lu Qipei and Qi Yang were too far away, and they could not hear anything they said. Qi Yang could not help but whisper, “It was a mistake, we’re too far away.”
She always felt that the girl’s aura was somewhat strange, and when standing next to the Third Prince’s consort, she didn’t look like the same type of person at all.
Lu Qipei looked amused seeing Qi Yang’s frowning and annoyed look. Without thinking much, she leaned to her ear and whispered, “Ah Ning, don’t worry. I know that person.”
Qi Yang immediately turned around when she heard that, her eyes curious. “Who is she?”
Lu Qipei didn’t keep her in suspense and immediately replied, “That’s Qin Qing, the number one star of Spring Wind Pavilion.” She continued, “She’s not from a guilty official’s family. In her position, she shouldn’t have much to do with the Third Prince’s consort. But today, they’re meeting in Huguo temple, surely…”
Lu Qipei didn’t have the chance to finish the rest of her sentence because she found that Qi Yang’s gaze at her suddenly turned sharp.
Immediately afterwards, the other party repeated her words in an unsavory tone, “The number one star of Spring Wind Pavilion?”
Author notes:
Lu Qipei (waving her hands desperately): No, no, I don’t know her!
Translator notes:
In case you forgot, the Spring Wind Pavilion is that number one brothel in the capital.
