After rebirth, I became a national teacher
Chapter 166
After staying at Cihang Temple for half an hour, Duke Dingguo finally got his chance to show up in front of Taoist Master Huiyun.
Although the Taoist Master Huiyun was very young, he did not show any flattery towards the powerful Duke. He did not even invite him to the meditation room for a cup of tea. He just spoke a few words in a light tone.
Towards other people, even merchants, the same gentle and distant attitude was applied.
It truly embodies what is meant by a world beyond the ordinary, where all beings are equal and treated equally.
Such integrity made Duke Dingguo even more fascinated by the abbot of Cihang Temple.
It is precisely because the master of the temple has such extraordinary abilities that the people in Cihang Temple have the confidence to not bow to any powerful person.
On the return journey, it was the Qin family who directed all vehicles and horses to turn around and evacuate.
The carriage of the Duke's Mansion was at the end, so it was naturally the first to leave. Before leaving, Duke Dingguo thanked Qin Dafu for his hard work.
After getting in the car, the wife of Duke Dingguo asked in confusion:
"My Lord, Qin Dafu is just a businessman. Why do you have to treat him with such respect?"
Duke Dingguo glanced at her and saw that her eyes were full of contempt for Qin Dafu. Thinking that he was often away from Nandu and needed his wife to burn incense and offer sacrifices on his behalf, Duke Dingguo could not help but teach his wife seriously:
"Am I honoring a mere businessman named Qin Dafu? I am honoring the most respected believer in front of the temple master!"
"The abbot of Cihang Temple has divine powers and can cure all kinds of diseases and injuries. No matter how respectful and flattering he is, it is not excessive. When his reputation spreads, there will be many people like us who are as cunning as him. How can our Dingguo Mansion stand out?"
"We are late. If we want to catch up, we have to make friends with the managers and followers around her. Only in this way, at the critical moment, we can successfully obtain the elixir and save our lives like the Zheng family. Do you understand?"
The wife of Duke Dingguo has been in charge of the inner court for many years, so she is naturally not a fool.
Her husband had explained everything to her in so much detail, how could she not understand?
I dare not look down on those merchants and believers anymore.
Otherwise, if she ruined the impression in front of the abbot, the old man would definitely not forgive her.
She said quickly:
"Don't worry, Duke. I will do my best to become a devout believer of Cihang Temple as soon as possible."
Seeing that she had taken it seriously, Duke Dingguo said:
"Yuan Nai said that the matter of Cihang Temple should not be easily spread to others. Remember to ask the people who follow you to keep their mouths shut."
He had originally explained this matter in the letter, and the wife of Duke Dingguo also knew the seriousness of the matter, so she immediately agreed solemnly.
The two of them took a car back to the mansion.
However, they didn't know that in the Yulong Temple across the mountain, many people were anxiously waiting for the wife of Duke Dingguo to appear.
Someone of the status of the wife of Duke Dingguo would be admired by countless people wherever she went.
Many people even deliberately showed up in places where she often appeared in order to have some contact with her.
Yulong Temple is such a place for those who want to get close to her.
On the first day of July, as usual, there were many merchants, low-ranking military officers and noble families guarding Yulong Temple.
However, everyone waited in Yulong Temple from dawn until the temple closed at dusk, but the wife of Duke Dingguo did not show up.
The wife of Duke Dingguo was a person of such an important status that she was one of the most important pilgrims even in the popular Yulong Temple.
During this period, even the people from Yulong Temple sent people to the intersection to look around several times.
In the end, everyone returned disappointed.
After returning to the city, many people went to inquire about the news. Could it be that the wife of Duke Dingguo was sick, so she didn't go to Yulong Temple?
Otherwise, with her piety of burning incense on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month, it would be impossible for her not to go.
However, the news brought back by the people sent out was that the wife of Duke Dingguo was fine and not sick at all.
This is strange.
What is even more strange is that the wife of Duke Dingguo not only did not go to Yulong Temple on the first day of the lunar month, but she also did not go on the fifteenth day.
