After rebirth, I became a national teacher
Chapter 236
A few days ago, Lord Jingnan and his wife knelt outside the temple and begged for three days and two nights. Everyone became more and more curious about who that concubine was.
However, no one admitted it yet.
In addition, Chen Qingzhu, the temple master, was the last to arrive, so many people have already speculated about the identity of the concubine.
Now, Sister Huiyun, the abbot's confidant, has personally instructed that Miss Pei, who was sent by the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion to practice Buddhism, should be treated with courtesy, which further confirms this point.
Huiyun let everyone discuss quietly for a while to digest the news, and then said seriously:
"You should have understood some things. Since the abbot has not ordered it to be publicized, if someone leaks something that shouldn't be disclosed, whether intentionally or unintentionally, as long as it causes trouble for Cihang Temple, the abbot and I will not tolerate it! Do you remember this?"
Under the joint instruction of Hui'an and Huiyun, all the female Taoists have long been disciplined and obey orders. Upon hearing this, they immediately responded loudly:
"Yes!"
Huiyun took in everyone's expressions and continued:
"I hope everyone remembers one thing. No matter who the temple master was in the past, he is now our protective umbrella that protects us from the wind and rain."
"If we anger the abbot and she abandons us in a rage...it's so hard for women to survive. I believe no one would want to go back to the hard times!"
Everyone recalled those dark days with a solemn heart, and promised to keep their mouths shut and never cause trouble for the temple master.

Since the safety of his nephew was at stake, Zhang Jinghong immediately began an intensive investigation as soon as he returned to the city.
First, he moved the group of people brought by the Zhang family, including Doctor Qian, from the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion to the ship on the pretext that they were about to set off and the servants of the Marquis' Mansion could start boarding the ship one after another.
After avoiding Zhang's eyes, he immediately arrested Doctor Qian for interrogation.
This person treated both Zhang and Pei Jin and was one of the most critical figures.
Doctor Qian is a doctor after all. When it comes to cunning, he cannot compare with Zhang Jinghong, an elite official.
Not long after, he was exposed after a series of deceptions by Zhang Jinghong. In addition, banknotes of 20,000 yuan from the Nandu branch of Hui Money House were found in his luggage. Even before he was tortured, he was scared to death and admitted that he had accepted the banknotes from Madam Zhang and lied about the cause of Young Master Pei's illness.
As for Zhang's pulse, Doctor Qian had never thought about whether she could have children. After recalling it, he said that apart from being a little weak, there was nothing abnormal and no signs of coldness in her body.
This proves that Zhang's body has really returned to normal.
If the case were to be tried in the government office, the evidence would certainly be insufficient. But in Zhang Jinghong's mind, this was enough to convict Zhang.
"Bitch! You've been hiding something evil this whole time!"
Zhang Jinghong couldn't help but grit his teeth.
He didn't know when Zhang regained her fertility, but it was definitely a fact that she harmed Pei Jin.
However, he was still undecided about how to retaliate and punish Zhang.
Only then did he realize what the temple master had said when he was angry. He felt that if it was really Zhang who poisoned Jin'er, he would make Zhang pay a heavy price.
Now that it has been truly confirmed, he is actually a little troubled.
The fifth cousin in the palace is deeply favored by the emperor. If she really gives birth to a prince this time, she will be even more precious in the future.
If he openly deals with her own sister, this fifth cousin will probably not let it go.
After all, Concubine Shu is about to give birth. If she really gives birth to a prince...even with the current status of the Zhang family, they cannot offend them easily.
The matter was of great importance, and he originally planned to return to the capital to discuss it with his parents and brothers before making a decision.
However, a major event happened in Nandu City the next day, which prompted him to make up his mind immediately.
