After rebirth, I became a national teacher

By then, the revitalized Jingnan Marquis' Mansion and its millions of fortunes will all be his!

Thinking of this, he went back to the academy to continue his studies without caring whether Zhang agreed or not.

After all, if Wen Chengwu wants to become his father's favorite heir in the future, he must have one of them.

However, before he could finish his sweet dream for two days, he heard shocking news.

The treasury of the Jingnan Marquis's mansion and Zhang's private treasury were all stolen.

Because Zhang promised to give Your Majesty two families' treasures worth 500,000, she could only use other properties to fill the gap.

Today, the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion is almost just an empty shell.

Upon learning that he was the illegitimate son of the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion, everyone looked at Pei Xiao with eyes that showed they were waiting for a good show.

It is obvious that the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion has not only suffered heavy financial losses, but has also become a laughing stock in the entire capital.

Pei Xuan's head was buzzing.

All the money in the Jingnan Marquis’ Mansion is gone, so what should he do in the future?

After a day and night of trekking, Chen Qingzhu finally returned to Nandu the next morning.

Without taking time to rest, she went straight back to Cihang Temple.

From a mile or two away, you can hear the sound of children from the Salesian Church reading aloud.

Chen Qingzhu used the invisibility technique and landed on the roof of the entrance of the Salesian Church, watching the situation inside.

Five or six months later, the entire Salesian Church was expanded with some more buildings.

Now, Mo Niang is teaching about a hundred children in a large house.

The children sat in order from short to tall, with a sandbox in front of them for learning to write.

On the other side, Kundao from the Discipline Hall was practicing marching and boxing with about a hundred children.

There are also some children taking care of younger ones.

There were many new women with unfamiliar faces in the laundry room, kitchen, etc., doing laundry and cooking.

Inside the Cihang Temple, some of the female Taoists were practicing, some were cleaning and receiving pilgrims.

There were still scattered pilgrims burning incense in several halls.

Everything is in order.

It can be seen that the imperial edict from the capital has not yet been delivered.

Chen Qingzhu felt relieved, turned around and left for the Nandu government office.

When the imperial edict was delivered, the first stop was the Nandu government office, so that she could understand their actions at the first time.

Chen Qingzhu rested near the government office for more than two hours, and then the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict and a dozen imperial guards arrived at the Nandu government office.

The other party arrogantly stated that all the nobles and officials above the fifth rank in Nandu would come to the government office in two hours to receive his orders.

Yan Qingzhi had no choice but to send yamen runners to various prefectures to invite people.

Two hours later, all the dignitaries in Nandu gathered in the courtyard of the government office, and the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict read it out in public.

The gist of it is that the abbot of Nandu Cihang Temple, who was later named the Supreme National Master, is now discovered by His Majesty to be a traitor and an evil heretic. His position as National Master is now abolished, and anyone who privately worships him or has dealings with him will be treated as a traitor.

At the same time, he ordered the Nandu Garrison Battalion to lead 5,000 soldiers to Cihang Temple to capture all the disciples of Cihang Temple.

All devout believers of Cihang Temple must go to the imperial commissioner to surrender and confess their crimes in order to seek lenient treatment. Those who admit their mistakes sincerely will be forgiven.

After hearing the imperial edict, the expressions of all the officials present changed drastically.

Ever since the second son of the Qin family was appointed as the Chief Clerk of the Imperial Preceptor's Office, the identity of the abbot of Cihang Temple, now the Grand Imperial Preceptor, has spread throughout the city of Nandu.

Therefore, even though the abbot was not in Nandu, officials and nobles in the city still rushed to Cihang Temple to offer sacrifices, in an attempt to at least avoid offending the other party.

Every single person present went to the Cihang Temple to burn incense.

Most of them did not know Chen Qingzhu's true ability. They only knew that she seemed to be good at medicine, and guessed that she was favored by Emperor Yong'an because of her medical skills.

Now, I don’t know if they will immediately turn against their allies after hearing this imperial edict.

"Your Excellency, please be clear. We just followed the trend and went to the Cihang Temple to burn incense. We have nothing to do with the abbot of the Cihang Temple!"

"Yes, we are loyal subjects for generations. How could we ever think of betraying His Majesty?"

For a moment, ordinary pilgrims who confessed their crimes almost surrounded the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict.

Minister Li of the Ministry of War's expression changed for a moment, and he immediately walked out.

Seeing this, Yan Qingzhi, the prefect of Nandu, immediately blocked his way:

"Master Li, what are you doing?"

Minister Li stared at him coldly:

"Of course I will lead the troops myself to capture the rebels in Cihang Temple!"

"Are you trying to stop me, Prefect Yan?"

Yan Qingzhi tried to maintain a calm smile:

"Master Li, you are joking. At such a critical moment, we naturally need to find out everyone's movements so as to prevent anyone from tipping off Cihang Temple."

Minister Li looked at him mockingly:

"I am loyal to His Majesty, but you, Lord Yan, I heard that your wife often goes to Cihang Temple to burn incense. It is possible that you tipped off Cihang Temple!"

Yan Qingzhi naturally expressed his loyalty immediately, saying that it was just a woman's matter and he never got involved. He always had a clear distinction between right and wrong.

Minister Li sneered:

"Whether they are colluding with Cihang Temple or not, we will know once I catch those Cihang Temple rebels!"
