Dressed as the villain's stepmother

The Queen Mother interrupted.

Dissatisfaction with Xiao Xiyan flashed across her eyes.

"Mrs. Liao, you have now been personally entrusted by His Majesty. The dead have passed away, and the living have passed away."

"The Royal Temple is where the eminent monks of our court gather. I believe that here you can pray for Lord Liao and watch over you in the future, so that you, your children, can live a happy life in Kyoto."

"The Ai family heard that all three of your children are outstanding. Mrs. Liao, please live a peaceful life. Your luck lies behind."

The Queen Mother didn't want Xiao Xiyan to say any more irrevocable words, so she directly took over the words.

These words were partly to appease and forgive her, who had lost her husband, but they were also to impress her, asking her, Jiang Lianzhu, to behave in a peaceful manner.

Jiang Lianzhu lowered her head and listened.

"Okay, it's getting late. It's been warm and cold in the past two days. Aijia feels unwell, so I won't sit here for a long time."

The Queen Mother stood up as she spoke, and Nanny Chen on the side quickly stepped forward to help the Queen Mother leave.

And in this house, Xiao Xiyan was the only one left.

"The Queen Mother has left, Jiang Lianzhu, this is not a place for someone like you!"

Jiang Lianzhu disagreed.

Taking Liu Qingqing away, she had already heard what Xiao Xiyan said just now and knew that Xiao Xiyan would leave the royal temple soon.

It's not like I got nothing from my trip today.

There's nothing wrong with leaving here now.

"Miss Xiao, why did you follow me out?"

Jiang Lianzhu did not expect that Xiao Xiyan, who was chasing people away from the exit, would follow her out of the yard.

"You are a vulgar and ignorant person with no sense of etiquette. I am a rich man in the Prime Minister's Palace. My aunt is not feeling well and cannot send you out. Of course I have to go out to see you off."

Xiao Xiyan said proudly.

"This is not to give you face, Jiang Lianzhu, this is what makes me, Xiao Xiyan, the prime minister of the Prime Minister's Palace, so special. Of course you, a simple village woman from the countryside, don't understand!"

The reason why she wanted to leave with Jiang Lianzhu was because she was so angry!

Just now, Xiao Xiyan was tricked by Jiang Lianzhu in front of the Queen Mother. Because of her aunt's scolding, she did not take revenge. How could Xiao Xiyan be willing to do so?

"It seems that this royal temple is indeed a good place. Miss Xiao actually learned to treat others with courtesy here."

Jiang Lianzhu deliberately squeezed.

Liu Qingqing, who was listening to Jiang Lianzhu's eccentric expression behind her, would have almost burst out laughing if she hadn't deliberately held it back.

"I will always treat others with courtesy, Jiang Lianzhu, but you, a village woman, are not worthy of me being treated with courtesy!"

From the beginning to the end, Xiao Xiyan never took Jiang Lianzhu seriously.

Her background and family status have never been comparable to that of a village woman like Jiang Lianzhu!

"Since Miss Xiao keeps claiming that she is a person who values ​​etiquette, why are you hiding in this royal temple and avoiding your fiancé, Mr. Pang Hu?"

Xiao Xiyan's words had no lethality at all to Jiang Lianzhu. On the contrary, after Jiang Lianzhu mentioned the name Pang Hu, Xiao Xiyan shrank subconsciously, with disgust on her brows, mixed with a few... Silk fear.

The name Pang Hu did great harm to Xiao Xiyan.

If it weren't for Pang Hu's entanglement, she, Xiao Xiyan, wouldn't have to give up being her prime minister in the capital and go to the royal temple to face the ancient Buddha with a green lantern.

"Jiang Lianzhu, why did you suddenly mention that person?"

Xiao Xiyan said sharply and harshly.

The calmness and so-called everyone's demeanor that he had just pretended were all shattered by the name Pang Hu.

Seeing Xiao Xiyan breaking her defense like this, Jiang Lianzhu said nothing more and turned around to leave, leaving Xiao Xiyan to go crazy alone.

"Come back! Speak clearly! What do you mean by what you just said?"

Xiao Xiyan lost her composure and yelled.

This is not the capital, let alone the Prime Minister's Mansion. This is a royal temple, a place where people can pray for blessings. Xiao Xiyan's shouting has attracted many people's attention.

She had no choice but to keep her mouth shut.

But Xiao Xiyan's heart was disturbed by Jiang Lianzhu's words.

And all this is the effect Jiang Lianzhu wants to achieve.

"Liu Qingqing, spread the news that Xiao Xiyan will leave the Royal Temple soon, and there will naturally be people outside to help you."

When they reached a deserted place, Jiang Lianzhu ordered Liu Qingqing beside her.

The reason why she chose to take Liu Qingqing into the royal temple was because Liu Qingqing was capable enough and no one could match him in delivering messages.

"Yes, shopkeeper, you should be careful. This is not Lihuayuan. The Queen Mother makes the decision here."

Before leaving, Liu Qingqing warned Jiang Lianzhu.

Today, the Queen Mother deliberately made things difficult for them, and Liu Qingqing saw it all. No one could feel the malice of the Queen Mother and Xiao Xiyan more personally than she did.

"Don't worry, I can protect myself."

Jiang Lianzhu said with a smile.

The reason why she chose to go deep into the tiger's den to explore was because she had made complete preparations in advance. The guards His Majesty gave her were not vegetarians.

After Liu Qingqing left, Jiang Lianzhu wandered around the temple alone.

The Royal Temple is actually very large. To be more serious, it is more like a villa than a temple.

In front of the temple are the Main Hall, the Lingying Hall where the deceased tablets are enshrined, and the place where the monks live.

The solemn, gorgeous and exquisite backyard is specially prepared for the royal family.

Today, the Queen Mother prays here, and her people are spread throughout the backyard.

The meditation room that Master Jiehe took her to was actually in the backyard, but that place was as big as heaven or earth compared to where the Queen Mother lived.

After Jiang Lianzhu looked at every part of the royal temple one by one, the sky had darkened.

When she returned to the Zen room, Master Jiechi was already waiting in front of the Zen room with a stack of scriptures in his arms.

"The patroness."

"Master Jie Hui, what are you doing?"

"Female donor, you want to pray for blessings and eliminate disasters for your late husband. I told you before that in addition to offering memorial tablets, you also need to copy and recite scriptures. These are the female donor's homework!"

Jiehe explained clearly to Jiang Lianzhu.

Jiang Lianzhu thought of the entire royal temple she visited in the afternoon, and with a thought in her heart, she continued.

"Master Jie Ai, this copying of scriptures requires sincerity and spirituality. Do you think it would be better if I go to the Mahavira Hall in the front yard to copy and recite the scriptures?"

"In theory, it does."

After finishing speaking, Jiehe nodded.

"In that case, you will come with me. I will go to the Main Hall to recite scriptures, and you will protect me outside!"

Jiang Lianzhu casually pointed and selected Pang Hu from the guard team. .
