Chapter 464 Explanation
This golden Buddha is going to be dedicated to the emperor and queen mother at the New Year's Eve banquet.
If there is really something wrong with the Golden Buddha, then they are in big/trouble!
"To be precise, this Golden Buddha is not a Golden Buddha at all."
Yunhong coughed slightly and told the news.
They painted the gold paint on the golden Buddha, but they didn't have much money at that time, so they couldn't paint much, and they could only paint a thin layer.
Logically speaking, half a year has passed by now, and the golden paint is about to fall off by now.
"Isn't the Golden Buddha the Golden Buddha?"
Li Houming shook his head in disbelief and said: "Impossible! I saw it with my own eyes, and this golden Buddha is indeed a golden Buddha!"
Yun Zhanfei curled his lips and said, "That Buddha statue has a layer of gold on its surface, and it will fall off in a short time."
He and Yunhong personally arranged for the Buddha thread to be made, and he painted the gold paint on it himself, and they even buried the Buddha statue in the pit with their own hands.
Apart from Chuzhuang and Yunmengxi, who else knows the way in this Buddha statue better than them?
"This golden Buddha has been guarded by me personally since it grew out of the ground, how do you know?!"
Li Houming still didn't believe it.
Yun Zhanfei and Yunhong looked at each other, and they had already said this, and there was definitely no way to continue to hide the matter of the Golden Buddha.
This is also the result they have already discussed.
"We buried this golden Buddha in the ground ourselves." Yun Hong said, pursing his lips.
"what?!"
Li Houming stared at Yunhong and Yun Zhanfei with wide eyes, his eyes full of disbelief.
"In order to dig such a big hole, I was tired all night!" Yun Zhanfei nodded.
"impossible!"
Li Houming shook his head and questioned: "Even if you buried the golden Buddha, how can you make it grow out of the ground?"
He saw this golden Buddha emerge from the ground inch by inch with his own eyes!
And at that time, he was not the only one who saw it, so many people saw it, there is absolutely no falsehood in this matter!
Li Chengze nodded aside, also very puzzled by this.
"We buried soybeans in the ground and poured water. The water will swell when it touches soybeans, and it will push out the Buddha statue in a short time." Yunhong told the two of them the principle.
"If you look at the bottom of the Buddha statue, you should be able to see some white bean juice." Yun Zhanfei reminded.
The bottom of the Buddha statue has been soaked in soybean juice for so long, there must be more or less traces of soybean juice left.
It's just that both Chu Lianqing and Li Houming respected the Buddha statue very much, and they didn't even dare to take a second look at it on weekdays, let alone check the base of the Buddha statue.
Li Chengze looked at Yun Zhanfei and Yunhong with serious and gloomy expressions. Now that the matter has come to this point, he believes that most of what they said is true.
If Yunhong and the others did not tell them about this in time, the Li family would offer this Buddha statue, and when the golden paint on the Buddha statue peeled off and the truth was exposed, then the Li family...
"Are you all doing nothing when you're full? Why do you do such a thing!"
Li Houming thought that the Buddha statue he had worked so hard to transport back was actually the work of Yun Zhanfei and Yunhong, and he was so angry that he was about to vomit blood, so he couldn't help but growl at the two of them.
Li Chun looked at the scene in the room below, pursed his lips, and said worriedly: "The third brother seems to be really angry."
"Brother Chun, don't worry, Second Brother and the others have a way to deal with it!" Yun Mengxi patted Li Chun on the shoulder, reassuring him.
With the person he likes on one side and his own brother on the other, Yunmengxi also understands Li Chun's dilemma at this time.
If this situation happened to him, then Yunmengxi would not know what to do.
"This one……"
Yunhong looked at Li Houming, raised his eyebrows and said, "We didn't expect that you would come to dig Buddha statues in such a big way!"
Originally, according to their idea, they would take the Buddha statue away after Chuzhuang's operation was over.
They didn't expect that things would be so stormy, and even Chu Lianqing and Li Houming colluded to dig up the Buddha statue regardless.
"If you wait patiently for another day, you will be able to see the beans in the Buddha statue after it comes out, but who knows that you took the Buddha statue away in a hurry, and even checked everything at the bottom of the pit." Yun Zhan Fei nodded and echoed from the side.
Chu Zhuang's methods cannot be regarded as incompetent.
But not all are flawless.
As long as you look at the bottom of the pit, you can easily detect the tricks inside. That's how Huiming knew it back then.
"You, you..."
Li Houming pointed at Yun Zhanfei and Yunhong, wanting to scold them, but he didn't know what to say.
Did he want to say that they dug up the Buddha statue, but they didn't dare to check it out because they were guilty?
"Humph!"
Li Houming sat on the stool, sulking alone.
Originally, he thought that he could make the emperor forgive him for his previous mistakes and return to Dongfeng Mansion by virtue of the contribution of the Golden Buddha.
But who would have imagined that such a secret is hidden behind the Golden Buddha.
Now he doesn't want to be able to offset the original fault, but only thinks that the emperor will not let him go back to Dongfeng Mansion forever in a fit of anger.
"Why are you going to Dongfeng Mansion to bury such a Buddha statue?"
Li Chengze did not ignore the fact that Yunhong and the others were able to conceal the answer to this question just now.
It's really unimaginable to go to such a far place as Jiqing Mansion and then bury such a Buddha statue.
Yunhong didn't expect that at this time, Li Chengze was not thinking about how to save the Golden Buddha, but still had the energy to investigate why they buried the Golden Buddha.
Naturally, Yunhong couldn't tell the truth about the reason.
After all, this matter will implicate Chu Zhuang.
"We met Huiming from Jinguang Temple, and we just wanted to have a joke with him, and we didn't expect it to turn into the following situation." Yunhong found an excuse and prevaricated casually.
Li Chengze looked at Yunhong with suspicion in his eyes, obviously he didn't believe this reason, but Yunhong didn't want to say more about this matter, so he couldn't force it.
After all, if Yunhong and the others kept silent about this matter, they would have absolutely no way of knowing the secret behind the Golden Buddha.
Sometimes the golden paint on the golden Buddha peeled off, and Li Houming and the others used strong methods to take the golden Buddha away. This consequence caused trouble, not only Li Houming, but even the entire Li family would be implicated.
Now Yunhong and the others took the initiative to inform them that the Li family indeed owed them a favor in this matter.
"Uncle, the top priority is, we should still think about how to get the Li family out of the Golden Buddha matter." Yun Hong reminded.
If you have the time to think about why they want to bury the Golden Buddha, it is better to think about how to get through this crisis.
"The Golden Buddha was transported back by me and Chu Lianqing, the magistrate of Jiqing. If something happened to the Golden Buddha, how can we escape responsibility!" Li Chengze said with an ugly expression.
"Cough cough!"
Yunhong coughed and reminded: "Chu Lianqing excavated the Golden Buddha alone, you just transported the Golden Buddha at the emperor's request."
He wanted Li Houming to put all the responsibility for the Golden Buddha on Chu Lianqing.
After all, in order to take the credit for himself, Chu Lianqing sent someone to tell the emperor and the queen mother about the auspiciousness of the Golden Buddha. In order to take the credit, Chu Lianqing didn't mention Li Houming in that letter .
Of course, Li Houming didn't know about this matter, and Yunhong only knew about it from the Queen Mother when he entered the palace last time.
Isn't this letter the most critical point to solve the crisis of the Li family?
After listening to Yunhong's explanation, Li Chengze and Li Houming's eyes flashed with surprise.
If they had known that Chu Lianqing was playing such a narrow mind behind their backs, they would definitely be very angry.
But right now, they can only be extremely happy.
So Chu Lianqing shot himself in the foot with a rock!
Moreover, Yunhong and the others were very aware of what Chu Lianqing did to Chu Zhuang. At this time, if they cheated on Chu Lianqing, it would be considered that they were venting their anger on Chu Zhuang's behalf.
"This one……"
Li Chengze gave Li Houming a wink, obviously very much in favor of Yunhong's proposal.
It's just because of face, it's not easy to admit it directly.
"Chu Lianqing is ill. On the Lantern Festival, he may not be able to recover and go to offer the Golden Buddha!"
Right now, Li Houming couldn't wait to throw this hot potato to Chu Lianqing, he would think it was too hot if he took it for a second longer.
But the problem is, this hot potato is not so easy to hand over.
If Chu Lianqing is not well, then he can only contribute!
Hearing this, Yunhong frowned, pondered for a moment and said: "Then make two arrangements. If Chu Lianqing can go to present the Golden Buddha by himself, then that is naturally the best. If not, you will have to do it in front of the emperor at that time." Put all the credit on Chu Lianqing."
The truth of the Golden Buddha will not be discovered for a while, so let Chu Lianqing pick the peach first and enjoy the fruits, so that he can take the blame later.
Li Chengze nodded, Yunhong's arrangement is the most suitable at the moment.
"I see."
Seeing Li Chengze nodding, Li Houming did not hesitate, and directly agreed.
"Uncle, please think about the matter between me and Li Chun."
Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Yunhong did not forget to remind Li Chengze not to forget what he had promised him before.
Hearing this, the corners of Li Chengze's lips twitched slightly, feeling extremely depressed.
The matter of the Golden Buddha was caused by Yunhong and the others, but they still had to accept each other's favor.
"Shizi Yun will be 20 years old soon, so there is no rush to talk about it later." Li Chengze smiled, neither agreed nor refused, just delaying time.
The closer Yunhong gets to his 20th birthday, the more dangerous he becomes.
If you want to be with Li Chun, let's wait until he lives to be 20 years old!
"Uncle, don't forget the agreement between us."
Yunhong didn't expect Li Chengze to agree right now, as long as Li Chengze could promise not to force Li Chun to go on a blind date within this period of time.
