Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan

Chapter 92 Xiuyun Temple and Burning Incense

Li Guangdi calmed himself down and asked Jiang Chen, "Do you think it's that easy to change the world?"

Jiang Chen expressed his thoughts, "Why couldn't the Eastern Han Dynasty last long after Emperor Guangwu? It was because the ruler was young and the country was in disarray, and the relatives of the emperor and the eunuchs were monopolizing power."

Li Guangdi frowned: "Brother Chen said he wanted to be Uncle Zhang, but he wanted to do the things of Cao the thief?"

Jiang Chen calmly asked back: "How do you know this road is not feasible?"

Jiang Chen didn't say this out of impulse.

The origin of the matter can be traced back to the twelfth lunar month. As the New Year is approaching, people begin to prepare for the New Year. They also have to offer sacrifices to various gods and add some incense money, so temples everywhere are very prosperous.

The concubines in the palace cannot move, but the wives of the princes still have some rights to move around, but the procedures are more complicated and they have to be accompanied by many people when they move.

Liu Youyou had been silent for half a year, sorted out the affairs in the backyard, and gained the trust of the Fourth Prince. Finally, she had time to do something big!

She first used the connections she had developed over the past six months and quietly arranged for someone to enter Jiang's mother's social circle.

Jiang's mother is a Buddhist, so at this time, she would naturally go to various temples to worship Buddha devoutly. As a son, Jiang Chen would also go with her.

So, during a casual conversation, someone said, "If you want to seek a better future, you have to go to Xiuyun Temple. This is the name bestowed by the current emperor himself! I heard that there is a dragon pond in this temple and mulberry trees on the mountain. In the past, a dragon lived there! Those families with scholars all go to Xiuyun Temple to worship Buddha!"

The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.

Jiang's mother was worshipping Buddha everywhere! Especially when it came to the future, she only had one son now, so she naturally wanted to take Jiang Chen with her.

Liu Youyou was also reporting to the Fourth Prince that she wanted to leave the palace.

One day, Yixiu leaned against the Fourth Prince, touched her belly with some worry, and said, "I have been married for so long, but there is no news about my belly."

The Fourth Prince was afraid that Yixiu would be as impatient as Song Gege, and take medicine to conceive a child, which would eventually cause the baby to die. So he comforted her, "You can't force an heir. Xiaoyi must not do stupid things like Song, which would eventually bring trouble to the child."

Yixiu pouted unhappily, "Master, do you think I can't tell right from wrong? I don't!"

The Fourth Prince pinched Yixiu's mouth and teased, "Whose hook is this? It can even hang a kettle on it."

Yixiu widened her eyes, slapped the Fourth Prince's hand, turned her back and ignored him.

The Fourth Prince also knew that he had annoyed the other person, so he thought of a way to make Yi Xiu happy.

“If Xiaoyi is anxious, why not go to the temple and pray to Buddha and Guanyin.”

Yixiu's muffled voice came over: "I often run into you ladies in the palace's Buddhist temple. I don't want to keep paying my respects there!"

The Fourth Prince laughed in silence and continued, "Since the Buddhist hall is so small, it is better to go to the thousand-year-old temple for the best results."

After these words came out, Yixiu didn't care about the cold war or not. She turned around eagerly and asked in surprise: "What did you say? Is it what I think?"

The fourth prince replied: "Yes, Master said he wanted Xiaoyi to leave the palace and go to the temple to worship Buddha."

Yixiu happily threw herself into the Fourth Prince's arms, "My Lord is so kind~"

The fourth prince raised his eyebrows and asked, "Now you don't say that I am bad?"

Yixiu buried her head in the Fourth Prince's arms in embarrassment and said nothing. After a while, she remembered something and raised her head and said, "Master, can Xiaoyi leave the palace at will?"

Seeing Yixiu's apprehensive look, the Fourth Prince explained, "The palace gates are strictly guarded, how can you come and go as you please? But you can report to your mother, bring enough people with you, and come back early. You don't have to worry about others being jealous. My sister-in-law has been out of the palace many times to have a child over the years."

The Fourth Prince said several rules, but it couldn't stop Yixiu's expectation. She asked with sparkling eyes: "Master, which temple do you think Xiaoyi should go to?"

The Fourth Prince thought for a moment and replied, "It depends on Xiaoyi's wish. If you want to pray for a marriage, go to Sansheng Temple. If you want to pray for a good future, go to Xiuyun Temple. If you want to have a child, then Hongluo Temple is the most effective."

Yixiu blushed and whispered, "My master always teases me."

Speaking of the temples outside, Yixiu couldn't help but listen to the fourth prince's words, "Master, is Xiuyun Temple the original Tanzhe Temple?"

The Fourth Prince did not expect Yixiu to know this, so he explained, "It is said that this Tanzhe Temple was once the residence of a dragon, so there is a dragon pond in the temple where a dragon lives. Next to the Pilu Pavilion in the temple is a thousand-year-old ginkgo tree, which was planted by a Tang Dynasty monk. It is said that it absorbs dragon energy, so it is also very long-lived."

Yixiu suddenly realized: "But what about the ginkgo tree that is said to be so magical by the people?"

The fourth prince was puzzled: "What's so magical?"

Yixiu was a little afraid to speak and hesitated.

The Fourth Prince's curiosity was aroused, and he asked, "Xiaoyi, is there anything you can't tell me?"

Yixiu leaned close to the Fourth Prince's ear and said, "This message is a bit treasonous, Xiaoyi dare not say it."

The Fourth Prince also lowered his voice and said, "We have a night talk in the boudoir, Xiaoyi only tells it to me."

Yixiu continued in a low voice: "Some people say that the emperor changed the name of Tanzhe Temple because this ginkgo tree is the 'emperor tree'. If the previous emperor passed away, the ginkgo tree would break off a branch and plant it there. When the new emperor ascended the throne, a new branch would grow at the broken end!"

After saying this, Yixiu didn't dare to look at the Fourth Prince's expression, and said pitifully: "This is all nonsense, Xiaoyi just listened blindly."

The Fourth Prince stroked Yi Xiu's back. His solemn expression was broken when he heard the rumor. He said with a smile, "My Lord asked Xiao Yi to say it. How can I blame Xiao Yi?"

Seeing that the Fourth Prince was indeed not angry, Yixiu said, "If this rumor is true, Xiaoyi would like to go and pay his respects!"

The fourth prince was shocked. I didn't dare to have any idea yet. How could someone so bold as to rush forward?

Seeing the Fourth Prince's expression, Yixiu knew that he had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "How dare I pray for those things? I am thinking that my master's child must also have dragon energy. If a dragon really stayed in Tanzhe Temple, wouldn't it be a good opportunity for me to pray for a child?"

The Fourth Prince was relieved, and he said how could a little woman have such great ambitions. However, Yixiu's words ignited the Fourth Prince's ambitions that were unknown to others. He was a Buddhist, and after hearing such rumors, he thought it was worth a try. But he couldn't go by himself, and Yixiu was a good assistant.

So, the Fourth Prince asked, "Where does Xiaoyi plan to go?"

Yixiu said tentatively: "My introduction just now has aroused Xiaoyi's curiosity!"

The Fourth Prince said, "Xiaoyi can go if she wants, but don't spread rumors like what she said just now!"

Yixiu nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Don't worry, Master. I dare not tell anyone else about this!"

It’s late at night, turn on the lights!

On the second day, Yixiu reported to Concubine De that she was leaving the palace, successfully obtained a one-time token, and waited for the Jiang mother and son to go out.

So, on this day off, Jiang's mother and son packed up and went out.

Liu Youyou was also ready and went out in a carriage.

In the end, he arrived at Xiuyun Temple almost at the same time as the Jiang mother and son.

Although Xiuyun Temple is located in a remote area, there are many pilgrims coming and going. As a distinguished guest, Liu Youyou naturally took the hidden incense-burning passage. As ordinary pilgrims, the mother and son of the Jiang family followed the crowd forward.
