"That's right, Mr. Pei, don't worry, I will treat them as my own children." Qin Yao's beautiful eyes were serious.

"Okay, then I feel relieved." Pei Nan nodded, and a big stone fell from his heart.

Soon, we arrived at the courtyard in the south of the city.

More than seventy children had to stay in the yard all day and had never been able to go out for a walk. When they suddenly went out, they were so excited, chattering non-stop and looking around. If there weren't enough people coming, I was really afraid that someone would get lost.

Qin Yao brought a lot of clothes and gifts, which the children loved very much. The children were very close to this beautiful big sister who appeared suddenly, and everything went very smoothly.

Around noon, we arrived at Jing'an Temple. Abbot Yangwen was already waiting at the gate of the ancient temple.

"Young Master!" He quickly stepped forward and saluted.

"Why, there are not many people here today?" Guan Ning jumped off the carriage and looked around.

"My lord, since you are bringing people here today, we will take a day off and continue with disaster relief work tomorrow. Don't worry, I will never forget what you have instructed me to do." Yang Wen said seriously. He was honest and did not dare to offend Guan Ning. He still remembered Guan Ning's eyes, which were more terrifying than those of tigers and wolves. It was definitely not just his weak appearance.

Guan Ning nodded: "I believe Shengqi has told you everything, right?"

"I'm not using your land for nothing. I'll pay you the rent, but you have to keep it a secret for me."

Hearing this, Yang Wen was terrified: "Master, you can't do this, you can't do this!"

"We are one family, so I really can't take your money. There are plenty of meditation rooms behind Jing'an Temple. It doesn't matter."

Seeing this, Qin Yao and Pei Nan were surprised and looked at each other with a slightly strange look.

No matter how could a dignified abbot, dressed in monk's robes, feel so terrified of Guan Ning?

"Then consider it as a favor I owe you." Guan Ning said this when he saw that he was determined not to accept it.

Seeing this, Yang Wen's eyes lit up: "I dare not, I dare not. Without your guidance, I would still be making the same mistakes again and again!"

"Sir, please."

Guan Ning smiled and turned around and said, "Let's go, take the children with us."

"Yes!"

A group of people entered the temple in a large crowd. As soon as the children arrived, they pulled Qin Yao to choose a room for them.

"Sir, this is the open space I've reserved in the temple. It's large enough to accommodate two hundred people. There are seventy-eight meditation rooms, three enlightenment pavilions, and a library. Although it's a bit rudimentary, it's still able to shelter us from the wind and rain."

"There's a long corridor leading to the temple, and it's separated by a gate, so pilgrims can't get in."

"Besides, it's warm in the winter and cool in the summer here, and the well water is clean, so there are no problems in life."

Guan Ning looked around. The house was indeed very simple and had nothing in it, but it was quiet, with pines and cypresses on the green hills, birds singing and flowers blooming. The children and the Guan family could take classes and learn to read here without being disturbed.

After a few days, when I am more prepared, I will expand the school.

"Okay, then this is it. I'll send someone to guard it."

"Yes, sir, this is the key." Yang Wen smiled. He had been swindling people for so many years, relying on his eyesight. He was sure that Guan Ning was the noble person in his life and was no ordinary person.

In addition, he was caught with something in his hand, so he didn't feel any pain at all and handed over one-third of the territory of Jing'an Temple.

Guan Ning took it and stayed for a while. He took the servants to move all the things here. Seeing the children gradually adapt, he felt at ease to leave with Pei Nan.

As for Qin Yao, she took the initiative to stay and take care of some other matters for the children for Guan Ning.

Shangyin Pavilion, known as one of the three pavilions in the capital, was formerly a library where scholars could recite poems and compose essays. However, too many famous scholars came out of here later, and over time, the status of this place has skyrocketed, and it has become a check-in place for countless scholars.

Occasionally, a poetry reading would stir up waves in the literary world. Many people would write a poem here and become famous the next day, be valued, and be promoted.
