Li Da was shocked. It turned out to be the wife of Duke Dingguo!

Why would the wife of Duke Dingguo come to such a rural Taoist temple?

There was no time to investigate further, so Li Da hurriedly bowed with Nanny Jiang.

Lady Dingguo did not call out, but asked sternly:

"Which family are you from?"

Nanny Jiang quickly stated that she was from the Li family, the Minister of War.

The wife of Duke Dingguo was slightly startled.

It turned out to be the Li family.

This is not an ordinary Shangshu Mansion. The Ministry of War is the only government office among the six ministries in Southern Capital that has significant power.

Moreover, the Li family is also a well-known powerful family in the Jiangnan area, and is not much worse than the Dingguo Mansion.

But she had already encountered this incident outside Cihang Temple, so she could not turn a blind eye to it.

On the bright side, the more difficult the Li family becomes, the more capable the Dingguo Mansion will be, and the more the temple master will pay attention to them.

This is an opportunity for the Duke Dingguo's Mansion!

"I don't care which family you are from. If you dare to cause trouble at Cihang Temple, I will never let you off easily!"

The wife of Duke Dingguo said in a resounding voice.

When Li Da heard this, his heart began to beat.

This is the Duke Dingguo's Mansion, which is completely different from the empty shell of the Censorate's Mansion.

Duke Dingguo commands the navy and guards the south of the Yangtze River. He is a favored minister who is more trusted by Your Majesty than his own Lord Shangshu.

If the two sides really confront each other, even the Minister of War will have to give in.

Even if he was acting on orders, he might become a victim in an effort to quell the anger of the Duke Dingguo's Mansion.

Li Da immediately begged for mercy:

"Madam, please calm down! This is all a misunderstanding! We will leave immediately!"

As he said this, he didn't even care about his injuries and quickly fled with his thugs.

Lady Dingguo did not continue to hold on to this group of lackeys who were obviously following orders, but walked forward and said with concern:

"Master Hui'an, are you injured? Is there any other damage in the temple?"

Hui'an looked calm and not at all flustered, and said gently and politely:

"Thank you for your concern, Madam Duke. Everyone is fine."

Lady Dingguo looked at the female Taoist priests who were still holding sticks in their hands, and saw that except for their messy hair, they were all energetic and did not look injured or in pain at all.

I couldn't help but be shocked.

The Taoist priests of Cihang Temple are truly extraordinary.

She had just taken a quick look and found that the Li family's thugs were not only fat and strong, but also armed with weapons. Their numbers also outnumbered the Taoist priests in Cihang Temple. Yet they were beaten so badly that they had no power to fight back!

Women are naturally inferior to men in physical strength, and those who can compare with men are few and far between.

All the Taoist priests in Cihang Temple are stronger than men. That can only be the supernatural power bestowed by the temple master.

As for this magical power, she had only glimpsed it from Qin Dafu's daughter that day, but now she witnessed this terrifying fighting power with her own eyes.

If her son could be endowed with such magical powers, there would be no need to worry about not being able to achieve great success and shine on the battlefield!

Thinking of this, Lady Dingguo's heart became unsettled.

If you can eliminate the Li family and make great contributions, you will definitely be granted divine power.

However, this matter was of great importance, so she did not dare to express her opinion rashly before discussing it with the Duke.

Mo Niang was also very excited about this.

An idea in her mind became clearer and clearer:

She wanted to become an apprentice at Cihang Temple and learn skills!

The reason why her grandmother was so worried about her future was that she was afraid that she would be helpless and bullied.

But if she could be as powerful as the Taoist priests in Cihang Temple, she would not be much worse than men.

If you adopt a few more children, you can support the family just as well as men.

Thinking of this, Mo Niang's eyes became brighter and brighter, and she just wanted to go back and discuss this matter with her grandparents.

Those who returned to the city earlier than them were Li Da and others who fled back to the Shangshu Mansion on horseback.

As soon as they returned to the Shangshu Mansion, Nanny Jiang and Li Da hurried to report to Old Madam Li what had happened at Cihang Temple.
