The Empress Dowager mulled over it for a moment. In the end, she agreed that

Du Wenxin had a point. If Du Yueshan was capable of seducing the King of Youshan, there was no doubt that he would take their side. Finally, she said to her servant outside, “Go to the Du Residence and find the Second Miss. Tell her I want her to follow me to the Temple of Eternal Peace to pray for blessings.” ‘Second Miss Du? Why did the Empress Dowager suddenly think of Second Miss

The palace maid was slightly surprised. After all, she knew that the Empress Dowager did not like Du Yueshan because Du Yueshan was not only a concubine’s daughter, but her mother also came from a brothel.

‘Forget it, forget it. The Empress Dowager’s thoughts aren’t something I can’t speculate about…’ the palace maid thought to herself before she hurried away to the Du Residence.

The group of people set off, and in less than two hours, they arrived at the entrance of the Temple of Eternal Peace.

“Amitabha, Empress Dowager.”

When Abbot Liao Chen from the Temple of Eternal Peace saw the Empress Dowager get out of the carriage, he stepped forward and greeted her expressionlessly. His tone was neither servile nor arrogant. He looked like he was free of secular affairs.

The Empress Dowager had been to the Temple of Eternal Peace many times so she was familiar with it now. She nodded in response before she asked, “Is Master Shen Zhi in the temple?”

“Amitabha. Junior Brother SHen Zhi is in the temple. However, he’s recently focused on meditation so he’s not receiving guests,” Abbot Liao Chen replied.

The Empress Dowager’s expression upon hearing this. Every time she came, she would ask to see Master Shen Zhi. After all, he was really capable. However, he was insensible and would refuse to see her every time.

At this moment, Empress Qin, who had alighted from another carriage, walked over and said with a smile, “Empress Dowager, don’t be angry. Master Shen Zhi has always only met people fated with him. Back then when the Emperor Emeritus visited, he didn’t see the Emperor Emeritus as well. He’s a master who’s been enlightened so he’s not restrained by the secular world.”

Consort Mu, who had also alighted from her carriage, said, seemingly unintentionally, “Master Shen Zhi is indeed capable. After all, he had predicted many major events in Xichu in the past. Alas, it’s really difficult to meet him. It’s said that he’s been waiting for the fated person, but until now, we’ve not heard anything. I wonder who that fated person is?”

As Consort Mu spoke, she looked at Abbot Liao Chen. She did not come to the Temple of Eternal Peace to pray for blessings. Instead, she came to see Master Shen Zhi. There were some questions she wanted him to answer.

Many of the ministers’ female family members shared similar thoughts as Consort Mu; they only came to see Master Shen Zhi. However, unlike Consort Mu, they did not dare to say anything.

At this time, Consort Hong pushed the curtain aside and coughed. As her maidservant helped her down, she reminded Consort Mu gently, “Sister, don’t make things difficult. Everyone knows that Master Shen Zhi doesn’t belong to any country. He’s only temporarily staying in Xichu for the past few years. Monks only care about Buddha and the well-being of people. Don’t make things more complicated than they are…”

Seeing Consort Hong’s frail appearance, Consort Mu was reminded of the

Emperor’s favor toward Consort Hong, and she grew angry. She said snappily, “Consort Hong, what do you mean by this? How can you say that I’m deliberately making things difficult for Master Shen Zhi and Abbot Liao Chen?”

Seeing that Consort Mu and Consort Hong were about to quarrel, the Empress Dowager said reproachfully, “Enough! Don’t you feel embarrassed?”

‘These two women are really troublesome!’

After being reprimanded, Consort Hong was calm, but Consort Mu’s expression was a little twisted. However, with the Empress Dowager’s presence, there was really nothing she could do to Consort Hong at the moment. Hence, she could only suppress her emotions and silently swallowed the angry words hanging from the tip of her tongue.contemporary romance

“Everyone, the accommodations have been made. The blessing ceremony will start in the afternoon and will last until tomorrow. You’ll have to stay for the night. Please tell me if you need anything else,” Abbot Liao Chen said calmly, clearly not bothered by Consort Hong and Consort Mu’s quarrel. His gentle and calm appearance made it seem like there were not many things in the world that could stir up his emotions.

“Mm,” the Empress, who was not in a good mood, replied curtly.

The group of people was quickly led to the backyard.

The Temple of Eternal Peace was built at the expense of the imperial court, and it was very spacious.

Initially, some people were worried that the temple would not have enough space to accommodate everyone, but after seeing the layout of the temple, their worries vanished.

Yu Yunxi followed the group, feeling bored. However, despite the bored expression on her face, her ears were pricked up.

‘That so-called Master Shen Zhi is unwilling to meet people? I thought I’d be able to test him. Alas…

At this time, a monk led Yu Yunxi to a quiet courtyard with many bamboo planted at the side and said, “Eldest Princess, this is your room.”

Yu Yunxi looked around and said in satisfaction, “I like this place very much.

Thank you. ”

Before the monk left, Chu Zhihe and a few noble ladies walked in. She said arrogantly to Yu Yunxi, “I like this place a lot too. Leave with your people now.”

Many of the misfortunes that happened to Chu Zhihe recently were related to Yu Yunxi. As such, she hated Yu Yunxi to the bone and was determined to fight Yu Yunxi for whatever Yu Yunxi wanted.

Yu Yunxi was not the least bit intimidated by Chu Zhihe. She smiled at the monk and said, “You can take your leave first. I’ll deal with this small matter.”

The monk looked at Yu Yunxi first before he looked at Chu Zhihe, who was filled with hostility. In the end, he only said before he left, “Amitabha.”

Now that the monk was gone, Chu Zhihe was even lazier to keep up pretenses.

She pointed at Yu Yunxi and said, “I said that I like this courtyard. Leave this place immediately.”

Unexpectedly, Chu Zhihe heard a clicking noise in the next moment. Following that, before she could even figure out what happened, she felt excruciating pain from her finger. She looked up at Yu Yunxi in disbelief.

‘This b*tch broke my finger! How dare she?’

The noble ladies who came with Chu Zhihe looked a little pale at this moment as various thoughts appeared in their minds.

‘Is the Eldest Princess crazy? Everyone knows how much Consort Mu dotes on the Sixth Princess. Moreover, the Empress Dowager, Empress Qin, and Consort Mu are nearby. Is she not afraid of being punished?’

‘How cruel. Just because of a trivial matter, she actually broke someone’s finger!’

In the end, one thought appeared in all their minds.

‘We can’t provoke the Eldest Princess..’
