After rebirth, I became a national teacher

"I'm afraid this person was sent by Marquis Jingnan to find out about our background."

Chen Qingzhu sat cross-legged on the futon, stroking the top-grade flowing beads in his hands, feeling the pure spiritual energy in them, and his voice was filled with comfortable laziness:

"There is no one else except him."

Huiyun was very nervous:

"After all, Marquis Jingnan holds military power. If he knew about us..."

Family members know their own business. Huiyun knows better than anyone who is backing his Taoist temple.

There is only Captain Li and Tongzhi Yan!

In terms of actual power, he is not as good as Marquis Jingnan.

If Marquis Jingnan finds out their background, he will probably lead his troops to destroy Cihang Temple.

Seeing her like this, Chen Qingzhu sat up straight and said firmly:

"Don't worry, he doesn't dare. These days are the height of the storm, he dare not do anything."

"Besides, are we at Cihang Temple just going to sit there and wait for him to deal with us?"

Seeing that his master was confident, Huiyun couldn't help but ask:

"The master has already made arrangements?"

Chen Qingzhu nodded and said softly:

"Don't worry, I'm here for you."

This is really reassuring.

Thinking that the abbot always had a plan for everything, Huiyun finally relaxed.

*

The reason why Chen Qingzhu was so confident was naturally because she had received the news.

The third heavyweight pilgrim that Captain Li had been preparing for for a long time has already entered the net.

It can be said that a lot of effort was put into this fish.

This person is the wife of the Right Censor-in-Chief of Southern Capital.

The Right Censor-in-Chief was the highest official in the Supervisory Office, and his rank was second grade.

Of course, this is just the grade.

In the entire Southern Capital City, only the Minister of War, the Governor-General of the Jiangnan Region, and the Garrison Commander of the Imperial Household Department were the real powerful figures.

The government offices they govern are the ones with real power.

The rest was basically used to provide retirement support for ministers or to resettle those officials who failed in the court struggle.

Although the rank sounds nice, it has no real power.

The same was apparently true for Right Censor-in-Chief Yuan Songbo.

He was originally the Minister of Revenue and the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, but had been exiled here for many years because of his involvement in the political reform.

Even the highest official of the Southern Metropolis Inspection Office was so disheartened that he basically ignored everything and just waited for his retirement.

Old Madam Yuan has followed Censor Yuan through the ups and downs of life for half her life. Now that she is nearly sixty years old, she no longer cares about the affairs of the previous dynasty.

The only thing that concerned her was the marriage of her granddaughter, Mo Niang.

She has no biological sons, only a daughter.

Her daughter died early, leaving behind only a granddaughter like Mo Niang.

Unfortunately, since she was born, Mo Niang had a large black birthmark from her nose to her cheek, which greatly affected her appearance.

Not only was she unable to find a good marriage, but she was also rejected by her biological father.

Old Madam Yuan had no choice but to take her granddaughter to raise her by her side.

Now that she was getting older and her health was getting worse, Mo Niang was almost nineteen years old, and she still hadn't found a suitable marriage. She couldn't close her eyes even after she died.

She often thought in her heart how nice it would be if Mo Niang didn't have that birthmark on her face.

Although my master was demoted to the Southern Capital, there are many students and former officials in the court, and His Majesty also appreciates my master's talents, so the family still has a foundation.

No matter what, at least Mo Niang can marry a good husband and have someone to rely on for life.

Because of this, she paid close attention to miracle doctors who could treat skin diseases.

When she heard that the eldest son of Tongzhi Yan had such severe burn scars but had completely removed them, she was immediately interested and went to the Tongzhi to inquire.

However, he learned that the miracle doctor was actually a wandering doctor, and the time of his return to Nandu was very uncertain.

In three months, Mo Niang will be nineteen years old.

That's a real old girl.

I can't wait.

Just when she was filled with anxiety, she heard the housekeeper from the mansion come to report a piece of news to her.

“Madam, there may be hope for the young lady’s face!”

"I accidentally heard someone say that the abbot of the Cihang Temple in the east of the city can cure all kinds of diseases and injuries, and he is a god-like figure."

Old Madam Yuan is not someone who trusts others so easily.

Hearing this, he was puzzled:

"How come I have never heard of such a person before?"

The steward said:

"I heard it's a secret among believers. I just thought of it the other day when I overheard a hunter delivering game talking."

This is a matter of great importance to Mo Niang's restoration of her appearance. Old Madam Yuan does not want to let it go even if there is only a glimmer of hope.

"Tell me about it in detail."

The housekeeper then said that the hunter said at that time that when he saved enough money, he would definitely ask the abbot of Cihang Temple to remove the scar on his face.

He saw that the hunter's face had a scar as severe as a centipede's, so he curiously asked if a Taoist temple master could remove scars.

The hunter has only been delivering game to the Censorate in the past half month.

I didn’t know what I did before.

Every time he hunted, he would hunt a lot of game, which he would send not only to the Censorate, but also to other dignitaries' homes. Therefore, he had actually met the eldest son of Yan Tongzhi's family.

He said mysteriously that he had seen with his own eyes the eldest son of Tongzhi Yan's family who was burned by fireworks coming out of Cihang Temple without a single scar on his face. Madam Yan was wiping her tears as she walked, saying that he was finally healed, all thanks to the temple master.

Old Madam Yuan frowned and thought:

"So, the face of the eldest young master of the Yan family was actually cured at Cihang Temple?"

"Yes, that's what the hunter said."

Cihang Temple...

Old Madam Yuan felt that it sounded familiar.

After thinking for a while, I finally remembered that wasn't the victim of the recent well-known case in Jingnan Marquis' Mansion?

At that time, she even murmured to her master, wondering why Yan Tongzhi would go against his usual behavior and protect an unknown Taoist temple, even at the cost of offending the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion.

That's it!

This Madam Yan really deceived her badly!
