Traveling to the ancient harem

The temple birthday ceremony of Ciyu Nunnery was held with great ceremony. Female believers from hundreds of miles around came here with their families to participate in this annual event. In addition, although the peak of Fanjing Mountain was not high, it had excellent scenery. Many people came here specifically to enjoy the scenery. It was very lively with people coming and going.

Lian Zhen's self-confidence has reached an unprecedented level in the past few days. As the abbot claimed to be ill and could not come out, she was the one who arranged and coordinated everything inside and outside the nunnery, and she was also the one who received the distinguished guests. She was like the real abbess of Ciyuen Nunnery.

There are also a very small number of people who know her and her background. Seeing her like this now, they can only sigh at the mercy of Buddha. Such a woman with corrupt character and who has harmed people's lives has actually turned over a new leaf and is wholeheartedly forgiving sins in the nunnery. No one is perfect, and only this nunnery can influence such a wicked person, so these people are becoming more pious, and their sense of belonging to Ciyuen Nunnery is getting stronger.

At night, Ciyun Temple was completely silent. Lianzhen finished her evening prayers and sat in her living room. While looking at the account book, she asked Jingxin, "Is there any movement over there?"

"No, Lingyu is watching closely, and Uncle Huizhen has sent people to guard it, so no one goes in or out." Jingxin knew who she was asking about.

"That Huizhen is really meddling in other people's business." Having said that, Lianzhen couldn't do anything about her. This person was just a stubborn person who didn't know how to compromise. She had tried everything in the past few days but couldn't get into the abbot's courtyard. She didn't know the abbot's condition, which made her very worried.

"This ceremony is over. I will go down the mountain tomorrow. You have gradually gotten the hang of the affairs of the nunnery over the past few years. I will give the instructions tomorrow. You take over the affairs of the nunnery temporarily and we will talk about it when I come back." Lian Zhen was in deep thought. She had to go down the mountain to discuss it with her cousin. The abbot was always so half-dead. When would she be able to take the position of abbot legitimately?

What worried her most was that if Jingzhen and the others came back, she didn't know if she could heal the abbot's injuries. If she could, all her efforts would be in vain.

The next day, Lianzhen summoned several main managers of the nunnery and said that she was going down the mountain to do some things for the nunnery. She asked Jingxin to take over for a while. She was afraid that Huizhen would object, but Huizhen said nothing, so she made the arrangements and went down the mountain with a bag on her back.

When Lian Zhen walked into the yard where Yan Ge'er lived, she had become a different person. The woman wore a hat, the most popular thin jacket and skirt, and a cloak on the outside. At first glance, she was a wealthy lady.

The little girl who served Yan Ge'er came out and bowed to Lian Zhen immediately, "Meet the Madam."

"No thanks." Lian Zhen asked the little girl: "Where is Brother Yan? Shouldn't he be at home reviewing his lessons at this time?" It was morning now, so he should be at home.

The little girl didn't dare to tell the truth. The young master had told her that if she was not at home, and the lady came and asked about it, she should say that she had gone out to meet friends to discuss academic matters. If she was exposed, she would be in trouble.

"The young master went out to meet friends and exchange knowledge." The little girl replied. In fact, someone asked the young master to go to the casino today, and he would not be back until dark.

"Yan Ge'er is a good boy." Lian Zhen nodded with relief: "Find a chance to give your cousin a message and tell him that I'm here and have something important to discuss with him." The little girl agreed and went out.

Lianzhen called the maid who did the rough housework to come and clean up her room (she had a room in this yard). She needed to rest for a while. She was a little exhausted from traveling for days.

The little girl did not go to find Lianzhen's cousin immediately. She ran to the casino and found Yan Ge'er's servant. Then the servant found Yan Ge'er who was gambling happily and told him that the lady had come.

Yan Ge'er was in good luck at the moment, and when he heard Lian Zhen coming, he cursed his bad luck, said something to his companions, followed the servant out of the casino, thought for a while, walked into a clothing store, changed his clothes that were wrinkled all over in the casino, bought new clothes, went to the backyard of the clothing store to wash his face, combed his hair again, and when he walked out, he was a graceful scholar again.

"Young master, the madam has sent money again. You have to be sweet-talker to make the madam happy. She won't have to worry about not having money." The servant was very happy. The young master had money in his hands, and his life would be better.

"What's the point of coaxing or not? Isn't it her duty to give me money? My awkward status is all thanks to her." Yan Ge'er said angrily.

Yan Ge'er was filled with resentment. It was because of her that he was not a good wife. He was born without a legitimate reason. His father's family didn't even know he existed. Now he was not even as good as a concubine. Other concubines were recognized by others, but what was he? If it weren't for the fact that she had been giving him money for so many years, he would not even want to look at this woman.
