Hui'an also didn't know Chen Qingzhu's specific origins.

When he heard this, he thought it was just a bad debt from the Jingci Temple. However, the abbot was in meditation and it was not good to disturb him, so he asked Huiming to reply:

"Tell them to wait outside. I will reply to them after the abbot finishes his meditation."

"Yes."

Huiming immediately took the order and left, conveying Hui'an's intention to Nanny Liu.

When Aunt Liu heard this, she immediately became unhappy:

"How long will it take?"

"The abbot usually ends his meditation at lunch time."

When Madam Liu looked at the sun in the sky, her brows immediately furrowed into a pimple.

She came early, so she would have to wait at least an hour for lunch!

Waiting for an hour in the cold wind!

She was the most respected servant beside the wife of Marquis Jingnan. How could she have ever suffered such humiliation?

"This is the order of the wife of the Marquis of Jingnan! Are you really so bold as to ask the Marquis to wait?"

Seeing her bossy look, Huiming's face suddenly turned cold.

"No matter whose order you receive, you must wait. This is an important place for the Taoist sect, so please obey the rules!"

Captain Li has received a lot of profits from Chen Qingzhu recently. He also heard that even the wife of the Tongzhi has come to the temple several times to become a devout believer of Cihang Temple. He has attached more and more importance to Cihang Temple and its abbot Chen Qingzhu, and even has the intention of trying to please and win them over.

Two days ago, he personally sent a gift to Chen Qingzhu.

Therefore, what Huiming saw was that a high-ranking official like Captain Li was not only respectful to the abbot, but was also polite to the junior female Taoists under them.

Of course, after experiencing the attentive flattery of two wealthy businessmen and the wife of a Tongzhi, she was not so flattered.

The man who claimed to be a servant of the Marquis of Jingnan's Mansion was not afraid at all.

The temple master said that they should be gentle and polite to outsiders, but if the other party is ungrateful, there is no need to be polite to them.

Aunt Liu is not a person with a good temper.

Huiming's look of not taking her seriously immediately made her furious. She could beat even the powerless concubines in the mansion, let alone a nun in a Taoist temple.

He raised his hand and slapped Huiming in the face, cursing:

"How dare you, you ignorant little hoof, not take the wife of Marquis Jingnan seriously!"

Huiming was stunned for a moment.

The other Kun Daoist who was guarding the gate turned around and ran into the Taoist temple:

"Someone got beaten! Senior Sister Hui'an, the maid from the Marquis of Jingnan's residence beat Huiming!"

Hui'an frowned. How could the servant of Jingnan Marquis' Mansion be so arrogant?

It stands to reason that they should teach them a lesson to establish their authority, but the Marquis of Jingnan is not a believer in the temple after all. If they act rashly, will it cause unnecessary trouble to the temple?

While hesitating, Huiyun heard the noise and walked over from the main hall.

After asking about the cause of the incident, Huiyun said:

"Don't delay, this is a serious matter, go and ask the abbot for instructions immediately."

In the entire Cihang Temple, Huiyun is the only one who knows Chen Qingzhu’s origins.

Although she had a general idea of ​​what the abbot's reaction would be, she did not intend to take the initiative and issue orders to Hui'an, who was of the same rank, bypassing the abbot.

Thus, Chen Qingzhu was interrupted from her meditation and Hui'an reported the matter to her.

To be honest, Chen Qingzhu had been waiting for several days.

Zhang's people arrived later than she had expected.

"That old nanny claims her surname is Liu. Is she from the Marquis's side?"

"Yes."

There was a hint of coldness in Chen Qingzhu's eyes. In her previous life, the old pious woman Liu Ma had helped Zhang to torture her.

Now that it's delivered to her door, how can she not entertain him politely?

"How can we allow a few unruly slaves to act so recklessly in this land blessed by God?"

"How dare you hit someone from Cihang Temple... Hui'an, who hit Huiming? Take your men to arrest her. Break the hand that hit her with, and then slap her back tenfold."

If she didn't want to kill someone and get sued, she would even want to pay him back a hundredfold.
