She married a dying prince and she won three babies.

"How about we go to Kutuo Temple outside the north city to worship Buddha and burn incense tomorrow? Bring Sister Ru and Xiao Yue'er with us." Yu Yuanzheng said her plan with a sly smile.

"Why do you want to go there?" Shangguan Ziqi didn't understand.

Although he had never been to that place, he knew what it was.

An exclusive place for women to practice cultivation.

In particular, girls from noble families in the capital who had made mistakes or had special reasons would be sent there.

Male guests are generally not allowed to enter, but they are allowed to enter if they have special status or to take care of the elders.

There are also some female elders in each family who don’t want to stay at home and can go there to live for a while to get some peace and quiet.

"Take Sister Ru to worship the Buddha and relax. Don't you think Sister Ru hasn't smiled in all these days? Although it may seem nothing on the surface, if she keeps it up for a long time, she will make herself sick.

So let her go and worship the Buddha, and tell him about her inner suffering. Perhaps she can move on from the past and start a new life." Yu Yuanzheng said this clearly.

"Well, what you said makes sense. Okay, then we will prepare tomorrow, and I will take you there the day after tomorrow." Shangguan Ziqi agreed without thinking twice.

As a result, the next day when Yu Yuanzheng talked to the princess, she also wanted to go.

Shangguan Ru didn't want to go at first, but after being persuaded by her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, she had to agree.

After Yu Chaoyang learned about it, he took the initiative to find the princess and asked to go with her.

Now all the women in the palace are going.

Cao Nanhua had not returned from her parents' home yet. The princess did not care about her and did not care how long she stayed at her parents' home.

Although the princess is gentle, she also has a scale in her heart.

The next day, the entire royal family, in five carriages, left the north gate and headed for Kutuo Mountain.

Kutuo Temple is named after this mountain.

Opposite to it is another mountain called Jinhua Mountain, on which the Huguo Temple is built.

It is higher than Mount Kutuo.

When the carriage reached the foot of the mountain, there was no carriage road leading up the mountain, so everyone had to get off and walk up the mountain.

Because Kutuo Mountain is not very popular and is far inferior to Huguo Temple, there is no business at the foot of the mountain. There is only a square for parking carriages, and no one is in charge of it. The owner arranges it on his own.

The abbess of Kutuo Temple had received the news long ago and sent people to wait at the foot of the mountain.

Shangguan Ziqi sent someone to say hello yesterday.

"Amitabha, I am honored to meet all the donors." A middle-aged nun saw the princess and her companions get off the carriage and immediately stepped forward to greet them.

"Young Master, no need to bow." The princess returned the greeting. "Is Master Huizhen well?"

"The abbot is in good health. Please follow me up the mountain."

The Master Huizhen mentioned by the princess is the abbess of Kutuo Temple.

Her identity is not simple. She is the aunt of the current emperor. Of course, she is not old, but was born late. She is only two years older than the emperor.

It was because her husband died early and they had no children, and the princess had a very deep affection for her husband and was unwilling to remarry.

Given her status, she could definitely remarry. As long as she found a man from a relatively low-class family, it wouldn't be difficult for her to remarry.

But she became a nun a year after her husband's death and came to Kutuo Temple, where she stayed for many years and later became the abbess.

And because she was here, none of the women who were sent here dared to act rashly.

The royal family would also allocate some silver to the nunnery every year so that they could survive.

Several maids each held a child.

The princess led the way and slowly climbed the mountain.

She hadn't been here for a long time, since Shangguan Ziqi was ten years old.

That time, Shangguan Ziqi was ill and could not be cured for a long time, so she came here to pray to Medicine King Bodhisattva for mercy.

It really worked. Three days after she returned home from praying, Shangguan Ziqi's condition began to gradually improve.

So from then on, the princess would send some incense money every year.

Seeing the familiar mountain road, the princess revisited the old place.

Shangguan Ru could hear the sound of nuns doing morning prayers from afar on the mountain.

She suddenly felt a sense of peace in her heart, and at the same time, a sense of longing.

"Sister-in-law, my younger sister also wants to come to this nunnery." Shangguan Ru suddenly said.

"Don't do that, sister. Be careful, Yue'er will cry in front of you if she finds out you have this idea." Yu Yuanzheng was shocked.

Don't be so pessimistic.

There is another top scholar waiting for her in Mingyang County.

"I'm just saying." Shangguan Ru blushed.

"Alright, you should worship the Bodhisattva more later. You can tell them anything you want to say. They can hear you. Just now on the way, my mother told me that the Bodhisattva here is very powerful."

Just now, on the way, the princess told her about the history and current situation of Ku Tuo Temple, including the fact that she came to ask for blessings.

"Okay." Shangguan Ru put away the thought that came to her mind at that moment and looked back at her daughter who was being taken care of by Zhilan.

She still had responsibilities. It wouldn't be too late to talk about it after she had fulfilled her responsibilities.

Yu Chaoyang, who was walking silently at the back, also felt at peace as he listened to the chanting.

But she never thought of becoming a nun.

The child in Yinling's belly is her hope.

The group reached the top of the mountain.

The abbot, Master Huizhen, was already waiting for them at the mountain gate.

The princess was flattered to see the host come out to greet her in person.

This is an elder.

The princess took a few quick steps forward to greet him.

"Greetings, Master Abbess. Why did you come out in person?" The princess felt very embarrassed.

"Amitabha." Master Huizhen smiled and made a Buddha's hand gesture.

The princess took the initiative to hold Master Huizhen's arm.

"We are just here for fun today, why do you have to do this, Master? Zheng'er, come, meet the Master." The princess immediately asked Yu Yuanzheng to come and pay her respects.

Yu Yuanzheng felt a liking for the host when she saw his compassionate eyes.

Immediately step forward and salute respectfully.

"Meet the host master."

Master Huizhen narrowed his eyes when he saw Yu Yuanzheng.

She had never seen this woman before, but she felt a little strange.

Judging from her face, she is not blessed, even short-lived, but she gave birth to three children in one pregnancy, which shows that she is very blessed.

However, her skills are far inferior to those of the monks in Huguo Temple, and one can only judge her by her appearance.

"No need to be so polite, young donor." Master Huizhen responded with a Buddha's hand and a smile.

"Dear donors, please follow me into the hall." Master Huizhen led the princess in front.

After entering the palace, the princess of course first worshipped various Bodhisattvas.

All the female members of the family knelt down devoutly.

Even Yu Yuanzheng is very pious.

She was able to travel through time and give birth to three babies in one pregnancy. Maybe it was some Bodhisattva who helped her.

In her heart, Bodhisattva is a god.

Perhaps Journey to the West had a profound influence on her.

Everyone paid homage to all the Bodhisattvas in Kutuo Temple.

It is not very big, with only three halls.

Then they went their separate ways, and the princess was invited by the host to her meditation room to talk alone.

But Yu Yuanzheng came here today for a purpose.

"Sister Ru, let's go and take a good look around the Kutuo Temple together." Yu Yuanzheng pulled Shangguan Ru and was about to act alone.

Let Shangguan Ziqi look after the children. He came up the mountain today just to look after the children. Let the women have fun to their heart's content.

But Yu Yuanzheng knew that there were secret guards following her in the dark, so she didn't have to worry about her safety.

Yu Yuanzheng took Shangguan Ru to the back of the temple and walked slowly around it.

Until we reached the back kitchen of the nunnery.

Shangguan Ru felt strange and wondered why her sister-in-law brought her here.

Ordinary tourists will not come here.
