Aunt Chen is back from the world of cultivation
Chapter 146: Humiliation, the master of the temple protects his shortcomings.
"I haven't been here for more than half a year, and the changes in the Cihang Temple of the God's Envoy are earth-shaking. It shows that the followers of the God's Envoy are indeed pious and have made many offerings to the Cihang Temple."
Captain Li started the conversation.
In front of Chen Qingzhu, he put away his anger and appeared more polite.
Hearing the hidden meaning in his words, Chen Qingzhu was not nervous at all. Instead, he smiled and said:
"Of course. Captain Li has also received his share of the profits."
Captain Li snorted in his heart when he saw that she had no guilt at all, but he did not intend to argue with her about this matter for the time being.
"I heard that even the governor of Caojiang, Duke Dingguo's mansion, is a believer of the envoy of God. The wife of Duke Dingguo comes to worship and offer sacrifices on the first and fifteenth day of every month. She is very pious. I wonder if the envoy of God still remembers what he promised me?"
"Of course I remember. Didn't I ask Zhang Liu to go back and tell Qian Hu that this matter cannot be rushed and we need to wait for the right time?"
Captain Li refused to let her get away with it easily:
"The divine envoy does not understand officialdom, and I am afraid he does not know how to seek an official position. I think it would be better if you invite Duke Dingguo and his wife to Taibai Tower in the city on the 15th of this month, and then introduce me to them. They will naturally understand your intention, and how can they offend you?"
Although these words were said politely, the meaning behind them was pressing, causing Chen Qingzhu's eyes to darken slightly.
The original purpose of cooperating with Captain Li was, on the one hand, to eliminate the threat posed by Ci'an's powerful backer to the still weak Cihang Temple.
On the other hand, it was also because she had no one available at that time.
She used this person, but that didn't mean she approved of him.
As the former backer of Jingci Temple, this man even took away two-thirds of the money earned by the temple.
So, rather than saying that Jingci Temple was opened by Ci'an and others, it would be more accurate to say that it belonged to Captain Li.
Captain Li should bear at least half of the responsibility for the life debt of Jingci Temple and the sufferings that the Taoist priests of Cihang Temple have endured.
In addition, he often bullied men and women in the city, took advantage of his strength to bully the weak, and many other people's lives were caused by him.
She would never agree to recommend such a person who has committed so many evil deeds, even for her own merits, so that he could climb to a higher position and harm more powerless businessmen and people.
What's more, she had already promised Huiyun Hui'an that she would help them take revenge on all those who had persecuted them.
This naturally includes Captain Li.
"Captain Li, are you ordering me to do something?" Chen Qingzhu's tone was casual, but his eyes were sharp.
Captain Li's face immediately darkened.
The atmosphere between the two sides was becoming tense when Huiyun walked into the reception hall carrying a tea tray.
"Master Qianhu, please have a cup of tea first."
She placed a cup of tea on the table next to Captain Li.
In fact, Chen Qingzhu did not ask her to serve, nor did he plan to invite Li Qianhu for tea.
Huiyun herself felt that since most of the other people didn't know the specific transaction between the abbot and Captain Li, it would be better for her to wait and see if she could help in any way.
Seeing that the talks between the two were about to break down, she walked in with the tea she had prepared long ago, intending to help the abbot deal with Captain Li.
After all, she had dealt with Captain Li many times and knew him quite well.
In this way, the situation can be prevented from becoming too tense between the two sides, which would prevent Captain Li, a jackal, from taking desperate measures and damaging the reputation of Cihang Temple.
Hearing the soft and familiar female voice, Captain Li's attention immediately shifted to Huiyun.
I saw Kun Taoist in front of me, wearing a green Taoist robe, with her hair simply tied up. There was no makeup on her pretty face, but her skin was as delicate as porcelain, her lips were as rosy as petals, and her pair of delicate phoenix eyes were clearly black and white, and looked particularly clear. Her whole body had the dignified demeanor of a lady from a noble family.
After taking a closer look, not only the voice sounded familiar, but the face was also familiar, except that now without makeup, he looked much better.
This dress and temperament, compared to the past, have a new and unique charm, which makes Li Qianhu feel itchy.
Thinking of Chen Qingzhu's previous attitude, he decided to take this opportunity to test it again.
"Hey, isn't this Xiao Huiyun? I haven't seen her for half a year, she seems like a completely different person!"
Captain Li looked straight at Huiyun and said frivolously.
He had heard of Huiyun's current reputation.
He is regarded as a confidant by the woman surnamed Chen and is now in charge of the reception hall. He enjoys a great status in front of the believers of Cihang Temple.
As he spoke, he took Huiyun's hand, looked at her with a bit of evil intent, and said teasingly:
"What kind of tea are you drinking? Don't you know that I only drink wine? And I like you to feed me wine the most!"
Huiyun's face turned red instantly.
But it's not because of shyness, but because of nervousness, shame and anger.
She had never expected that Cihang Temple had become so powerful that Captain Li dared to say such words in front of the temple master.
Let her shameful past be exposed nakedly in front of the audience.
Obviously, the temple master knew roughly about her past, but for some reason, when those humiliating details were spoken so mercilessly in front of the temple master, she felt extremely embarrassed.
"Captain Li, please respect yourself!"
She subconsciously tried to free her hand.
Chen Qingzhu looked at the scene in front of him, and his face became completely gloomy:
"Captain Li, didn't you hear that the head of the reception hall of this temple told you to respect yourself?"
"Take your hands off the place where they shouldn't be right now!"
For some reason, when he met Chen Qingzhu's stern gaze, Captain Li felt a chill in his heart and involuntarily let go of his hand.
But when he came to his senses, he felt it was a great humiliation.
He was actually intimidated by a woman!
"Why is the envoy of God making such a fuss? Those believers don't know her background and treat her like a person. How can I not know that she is just a prostitute in a den of brothels and can be slept with by anyone? What's the big deal if I touch her?"
Captain Li said meaningfully.
Chen Qingzhu knew very well that he was using Huiyun to refer to Cihang Temple.
"Shut up!"
Huiyun's eyes were red and her whole body was trembling.
Captain Li didn't care. He looked at Huiyun with a wicked smile and continued:
"What's wrong with that? I want to stay at Cihang Temple for one night today, and ask you to come and serve me as usual. I'm sure the envoy of God won't even give me this face..."
Before he could finish his words, he and the chair flew out suddenly.
He felt a burning pain on his face and warmth under his nose. He subconsciously reached out to touch it and found his hand full of blood.
In comparison, the fat body falling on the carpet didn't hurt too much.
When he looked up, he saw that Chen Qingzhu had walked down from the main seat at some point and was looking down at him with cold eyes.
Huiyun was shocked and stunned.
It was obvious that the slap was given by this bitch named Chen.
Captain Li struggled to get up from the ground in a panic, and rushed towards Chen Qingzhu like a mad bull. He didn't think about anything but fighting back fiercely.
Chen Qingzhu raised his foot slightly and kicked Li Qianhu to the ground.
Captain Li grimaced in pain, only then realizing that he could not beat the woman in front of him.
He got up from the ground and did not charge blindly. Instead, he stared at Chen Qingzhu with murderous eyes:
"How dare you fight me for such a bitch!"
Chen Qingzhu always protects his own people.
Huiyun is her right-hand man, how could she tolerate others humiliating her in front of her like this?
Besides, Captain Li just played Zhang Liu, so it was a good opportunity to collect some interest first.
"How can I forgive you if you dare to attack my people?" Chen Qingzhu said proudly.
Zhang Liu's heart was suddenly shocked.
He clearly noticed that when he came in just now, the master's gaze stayed on his face for a moment.
So... she noticed that he was beaten by Captain Li, and deliberately made Captain Li make a mistake to help him vent his anger.
Zhang Liu only felt that his whole heart was wrapped in a strong warm current!
While he was moved, he did not forget his own business.
"Qian Hu, how are you?"
He looked very concerned and helped the struggling Li Qianhu up.
Captain Li leaned against Zhang Liu with a ferocious look on his face, gritting his teeth and saying:
"Okay, it seems that Master Chen feels that he has grown strong enough and no longer needs me, Li?"
"I'm telling you, I know your details very well. If you don't want me to make your details known to the whole city and let those powerful believers be ashamed of you, you'd better listen to my orders!"
In the past of Cihang Temple, all the tricks that Chen Qingzhu had asked him to do in order to win over the believers were the handles of Cihang Temple!
He just didn't believe that she wasn't afraid.
Of course Chen Qingzhu is not afraid.
Since she dared to take action, she was not afraid of breaking up with Captain Li, and was even prepared to fulfill her promise to Huiyun Huian and others.
