After rebirth, I became a national teacher

He remembered that he had heard a rumor that the abbot of the Cihang Temple in Nandu and the God of Du'e were the same person.

Yan Yun's father is in Nandu, and he must be deeply involved with the God Du'e. This kid most likely ran away with the God Du'e.

He asked His Majesty to forgive him for his failure to control his people, and promised to investigate all the believers of the God of Du'e in the capital to atone for his sins.

As the first noble to express his opinion on this matter, Emperor Yong'an was very satisfied with his loyalty and understanding.

He was only fined half a year's salary and asked to investigate the powerful people related to the God of Du'e.

"Master, please forgive me. In order to gain the trust of Emperor Yong'an, I can only hand in this letter of surrender."

Chen Qingzhu expressed his understanding.

After all, this is what Yan Rong had said long ago.

"Who did you give as a token of your loyalty?"

she asked.

Yan Rong counted them all out for her.

"The first are the dignitaries in Nandu. The Duke Dingguo's faction is at the head, followed by the prefect Yan Qingzhi and other Nandu officials."

"Please forgive me for my self-willed decision. I feel that if you return to Nandu to start an uprising, you will need support. I will label them as traitors first, so that they will have no choice but to choose you."

He also explained his motivations.

It seems like he is asking for forgiveness, but in fact he is seeking credit.

Chen Qingzhu knew what was going on and didn't mind his little tricks.

"Well done, I am very satisfied."

Yan Rong was secretly delighted and continued to report.

In addition to the dignitaries in Nandu, there is also the Cheng'en Mansion in the capital. They have accepted the young master's fairy dew and have an old relationship with the Dingguo Duke in Nandu.

There is also the Mansion of the Duke of Yingguo. His eldest son has an old relationship with Su Changshi. The Duke of Yingguo was also very enthusiastic about the divine mist of the God of Du'e and had presented a lot of offerings at the previous opening ceremony of the temple.

(He specifically explained that the Duke of Ying's family was loyal to His Majesty, and Xiao Guangyu was very capable. He wanted His Majesty to be more suspicious and ignore the Xiao family.)

There is also the family of Su Jijiu of the Imperial Academy. His daughter is a close confidant of the God of Du'e. Although they seem to be at odds with each other, blood is thicker than water. If the God of Du'e had the intention to rebel, they might have pretended to be so at odds to confuse everyone.

There is also Zhang Ge Lao's family, whose grandson Pei Jin's chronic illness was cured by the abbot of Cihang Temple.

……

When it comes to investigating cases, Yan Rong is indeed very good.

In addition to the dignitaries in Nandu, and the Duke of Ying and the Su Mansion, whom he had intentionally included, many other pilgrims who had sent her large offerings were also listed by him.

"In Nandu, Emperor Yong'an sent an imperial edict to exterminate Cihang Temple the day after you left, 400 miles away. However, the snow is so deep that it is difficult to travel. I am afraid it will be difficult to travel 400 miles a day. The imperial edict will probably reach Nandu today or tomorrow."

Chen Qingzhu was mentally prepared for this.

She did not return to Nandu early, precisely to see how the believers would react to this crisis.

"Your Majesty has also issued an imperial decree that a selection will be held after the new year to fill the harem. All women aged 14 or above in the capital city must go to the capital to participate in the selection."

Chen Qingzhu raised his eyebrows slightly, guessing that this was probably the evil cultivator's idea.

She took away the eldest prince and killed Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi. It had no choice but to find a new matchmaker and planned to choose a woman with better spiritual roots to give birth to a prince that it could possess.

This matter would not harm her for the time being, so she had no intention of stopping it.

"By the way, Master, as for the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion, His Majesty has already issued an order to pardon their crimes the day before yesterday."

"Madam Zhang sent someone to the palace today to say that the treasury is empty and that she wants to donate 500,000 taels of silver to Your Majesty on behalf of the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion. Your Majesty is very pleased!"

"She is also the aunt of the two princesses. I'm afraid it won't be long before the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion will be prosperous again."

Yan Rong specifically mentioned this matter because he noticed that the abbot seemed to have a grudge against the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion.

This news made Chen Qingzhu feel somewhat relieved.

Fortunately, she remembered that she had forgotten the treasury of the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion, so she came back to deal with it.

Otherwise, if she left, the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion would definitely be acquitted.

If Zhang were to think of offering her family property again, it would really give her a chance to turn things around.

However, now that she was back, Zhang's plan to make a comeback by offering money would be in vain.

After leaving Yan Mansion, Chen Qingzhu went directly to the treasury of Jingnan Marquis' Mansion.

The Jingnan Marquis's Mansion has a fortune of millions, and is considered one of the wealthiest groups among the nobles.

Apart from the farm and shops that could not be taken away, there were also many gold, silver, jade, antiques, calligraphy and paintings.

Because Zhang had just delivered a message to Emperor Yong'an today, all these properties had already been counted and packed, waiting for someone from the palace to receive them tomorrow.

This made it convenient for Chen Qingzhu. He simply put all the large wooden boxes into his storage talisman. In less than half a minute, he had emptied the treasury of the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion.

——Except for the property that Zhang was going to present to Emperor Yong'an, she also took the others.

After moving the government treasury, she went to Zhang's private treasury.

Similarly, sweep all the things into the storage talisman.

After successively raiding the private vaults of Emperor Yong'an and adding the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion, Chen Qingzhu's wealth has expanded rapidly. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the richest man in Wei.

In the short term, no matter what she wants to do, she will no longer be short of money, so it is a good time for her to return to Nandu and show her talents.

In the dark of night, braving the wind and snow, she left the capital in a happy mood and headed straight for Nandu.
