After rebirth, I became a national teacher

The new official took office three fires.

Among the three new managers, Huiyun feels that he is a latecomer and may not be as trusted by the master as Huian and Huijing, so he is most eager to demonstrate his abilities.

While Chen Qingzhu was immersed in cultivation, Huiyun quickly completed the tasks assigned by Chen Qingzhu.

Under her organization, all the nuns in the West Garden of Cihang Temple, no, now they should be called Kun Dao, moved to the East Garden where the conditions were better.

After everything was settled, Huiyun came to report to Chen Qingzhu.

"Master, we have found valuables worth more than 700 taels in the Discipline Hall and Huiyuan and others' rooms."

As he spoke, he asked someone to bring in three large baskets.

Two large baskets contained strings of copper coins, and the other basket contained silver, jewelry and other items.

The bulk of the money was in Chen Qingzhu's hands, so she didn't care about the small change. She just glanced at it and nodded:

"You did very well."

Huiyun hesitated for a moment, then took out a wooden box and presented it with both hands:

"Master, these are all my personal belongings. I will hand them over to you for disposal."

Chen Qingzhu looked at her with a little surprise, and then understood what she was thinking.

Unlike Hui'an, Huijing and other female Taoists, Huiyun was also a powerful figure in the original Jingci Temple.

She has an attitude of clearing out and suppressing all powerful parties, so Huiyun naturally has to be more cautious.

Chen Qingzhu softened his gaze and voice, and said soothingly:

"You don't have to do this. This is what you deserve. I know you are not a villain like Ci'an and the others. You are also a victim."

She didn't even look at the contents of the wooden box.

The attitude revealed in these words startled Huiyun slightly, and ripples appeared in her heart involuntarily.

"Thank you so much, Master!"

She followed Chen Qingzhu at first just to escape the oppression of the old nun Ci'an and find a new way out for herself.

But at this moment, she found that the master really understood her. She understood her difficulties and her kindness to the other sisters, and did not regard her as a villain who changed her mind according to the situation.

"Go call Hui'an and Huijing. I have something to tell you."

"Yes."

Huiyun took the order and left, and soon returned with the two of them.

"Guanzhu!"

The three of them bowed together.

"Now that the relocation has been arranged, the Cihang Temple should also be running smoothly."

"Hui Jing, take this money back. From now on, you will be in charge of the financial accounts of the temple and be responsible for the overall kitchen affairs."

Huijing is timid and docile, and does not have strong abilities, but she is obedient and loyal. It is most appropriate for her to manage the finances and the kitchen.

Huijing smiled sweetly:

"Yes! Master, I will definitely make our new home a good one for you!"

Huijing had no objection to this and did whatever the master told her to do.

"Huiyun, you are smart. From now on, I will let you take care of the reception, daily maintenance, and external purchases. Can you do it?"

Huiyun looked confident and calmly stepped forward to take on the task:

"Master, just rest assured. Huiyun will definitely do his best."

Chen Qingzhu smiled and nodded, then looked at Hui'an:

"Hui An, from what I saw from your skills the other day, you must be from a martial family, right?"

When Hui'an fought with the thugs from the Discipline Hall the day before yesterday, it can be said that he played the greatest role among the others.

Hui'an was a little surprised, but then he felt that there was nothing strange about it. The temple master was not an ordinary person, so it was normal for him to see these things.

"Yes, Master."

But he had no intention of continuing to talk about worldly matters.

Everyone who had fallen into the original Jingci Temple had a story to tell. Chen Qingzhu had no interest in asking about other people's privacy, so he continued to instruct:

"It's been freezing cold lately, and there won't be any pilgrims until at least the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. In that case, we'll have the sinners do all the cleaning of the temple. Huiyun will take care of that. The rest of us will be led by Hui'an to keep fit."

"Observe for a while, and select half of the people with better physiques to form a new Discipline Hall, responsible for the security of the temple. For everyone in the Discipline Hall, the basic monthly silver will be increased by 200 coins, and an egg and a bowl of goat milk will be added every day."

Jingci Temple does not support idle people. She also does not support idle people.

It's not because they can't afford the money, but because idleness breeds trouble.

Moreover, to create the mystery of the messenger of God, she also needed a grand ceremony. These people were her grand ceremony.

She has a powerful enemy in the Jingnan Marquis Mansion, and will inevitably have to deal with high-ranking officials in the future. Therefore, Cihang Temple must have a reserve of military force.

Hui An thought for a moment and asked:

"Master, can you please inform everyone in advance about the increase in the salary of the Discipline Hall?"

Chen Qingzhu said:

"can."

In this way, motivated people will be more willing to actively perform in the early basic training.

Huiyun hesitated for a moment and said:

"Master, can I join the early training at the Discipline Hall?"

Chen Qingzhu raised his eyebrows slightly:

"Why?"

Huiyun said:

"The temple master once said that it is important for people to save themselves. Nowadays, it is very dangerous for women to walk alone outside. It is always better to have more self-protection ability."

Chen Qingzhu sighed again, Huiyun is indeed a smart person.

"Since you want to learn, then go ahead and arrange your time so as not to interfere with your work."

"Yes!"

A smile appeared on Huiyun's face, and two dimples flashed at the corners of her lips.

Chen Qingzhu had never seen her smile so happily before. However, this smile was fleeting, and she immediately returned to her gentle and calm expression.

After arranging these trivial matters, Chen Qingzhu continued to practice.

Two more days passed in the blink of an eye.

Ci'an and others had been tied up in the woodshed for three days.

As a civilian with no background, it is best not to be involved in murder cases, even if the people involved are extremely evil.

Chen Qingzhu estimated the time and asked Huiyun to take people to untie Ci'an and others.

After being hungry for three days, tied up, and with injuries on their bodies, these people were almost half dead.

If they didn't eat well on a daily basis and keep fat, I'm afraid most people wouldn't be able to stand such hardship.

Because Ci'an and Huiyuan had already been captured by Chen Qingzhu and whipped in public, the morale of everyone in the Discipline Hall had dropped to the lowest point, and now they had all lost their temper due to being tied up.

Huiyuan and Ci'an are different.

Since coming to Jingci Temple, Huiyuan has never lived such a hard life again.

During these three days, the wounds on her body hurt, she was hungry, her hands and feet were numb from being tied, and the corners of her mouth were sore from being stretched by the rag.

He couldn't even urinate or defecate on his own and had to poop on himself.

But this did nothing to calm her down, it only made her angrier.

As soon as she recovered a little, she started cursing:

"Huiyun, you bitch, how dare you go to Chen Qingzhu? If the captain knew about this, he would make sure that you all die miserably!"

Hearing this, a hint of worry flashed across Huiyun's eyes, but her face did not show any sign of it.

"Oh, that only works if the commander remembers you and knows what happened to you. By that day, you might have already turned into a pile of bones."

Huiyuan was about to retort but was stopped by Ci'an with a stern look.

She cursed in her heart, thinking that Huiyuan was such an idiot and was so impatient that he actually revealed their cards directly.

If Chen Qingzhu and the others were forced into a desperate situation, thinking that they would take them with them even if they had to die, then everything would be over.

"Huiyun, I have treated you well in the past, and I am not asking you to let me go. I just ask you to invite Chen Qingzhu here for the sake of our past friendship. I have something to say to her."

Huiyun felt that the past friendship was just a mockery.

What kind of kindness could there be in the past, the kindness that forced her into prostitution by using both soft and hard methods?

However, this was not the time to act on impulse because of personal grudges. She had to report to the abbot to see what Ci'an was up to.

Moreover, it was also a good opportunity to remind the abbess, Nun Ci'an, about her backers so that they could work out a countermeasure strategy as soon as possible.
