I just hope she will learn from her mistakes, grow up quickly, and stop causing him trouble.

"Guanzhu!"

Hearing the shouting outside the door, Chen Qingzhu opened his eyes from his meditation.

It was Huiyun's voice.

If it wasn't an extremely urgent matter, she wouldn't come to disturb her meditation.

She stood up and opened the door, and saw Huiyun with a sad face saying:

"Master, the chief steward of Jingnan Marquis's Mansion has arrived and said that he will give us ten times the compensation as a token of sincerity!"

"Moreover, they brought dozens of people to watch the fun, saying that they welcome people to come and supervise them to apologize to our Cihang Temple."

If it were an ordinary person, seeing that the marquis's mansion paid ten times the compensation and sent the chief steward to apologize, he would definitely be very proud of himself.

But Huiyun saw a crisis.

When they are victims, the people will indeed share their hatred for the enemy.

But when they see that Cihang Temple received a huge amount of compensation for the arson, many people easily become jealous, and thus blame or even hate the original victims.

This money is very hot.

But after all, the amount is huge and she can't take charge of it.

Chen Qingzhu felt sad in his heart, thinking that this was probably not something Zhang could do.

After all, she should still be dealing with the rumors at the moment and has no time to do such things.

She wasn't that generous. After all, she had only agreed to double the compensation in front of everyone in the court.

The only one who could have such means was Pei Xiao, Marquis of Jingnan.

"Do you think we should accept this money?"

Huiyun said without hesitation:

"You shouldn't accept it, and you can't accept it!"

He elaborated on his concerns in detail.

Seeing her serious face as if facing a great enemy, Chen Qingzhu smiled and tossed the beads in his hand leisurely.

"Such a large sum of money has been delivered to your door, why don't you accept it?"

Huiyun is puzzled:

"Master, the reputation of Cihang Temple..."

The reputation of Cihang Temple is actually not that important to Chen Qingzhu.

But how could she fall into Pei Xiao's plan?

"Go tell them that it is a great honor for the Jingnan Marquisate to admit their mistakes and improve. I hope they will do good from now on and stop bullying and oppressing ordinary people!"

"As for the compensation, since the Marquis of Jingnan Mansion can easily give so much, it must not be a big deal for them. Then our Cihang Temple will accept it!"

"I think this money will be used to establish a charity to take in homeless orphans. This will help the Marquisate to absolve itself of all the sins it has committed in the past!"

Huiyun's eyes lit up, and she immediately understood the intention of her temple master.

"The abbot is very smart. I guarantee that the Marquis of Jingnan will lose more than he gains! I'll go and tell them right away!"

Returning to the Taoist temple, which was crowded with dozens of onlookers and a dozen sword-wielding guards from the marquis's mansion, Huiyun loudly conveyed Chen Qingzhu's words.

Every word of those words implied that the Marquis of Jingnan had done a lot of bad things and that they were wealthy, so five thousand taels was nothing.

The common people, who were originally praising the Marquis' Mansion for being sensible and generous, suddenly changed their tone.

Why did they sympathize with the powerful people in the Marquis' Mansion who exploited the common people?

The fact that someone could casually give away five thousand taels shows how wealthy his family is.

Is the salary of Marquis Jingnan really that much?

Isn't it just like other powerful people who get it by exploiting the people?

The reason why they are willing to spend so much money is that they see that the matter has become a big deal and they want to shut the people up.

They were almost deceived and used as pawns by the Jingnan Marquis Mansion!

The people who felt they were being fooled immediately began to criticize Jingnan Marquis's Mansion and praise Cihang Temple.

"The master of the temple said it well! Since they insist on giving it to you, why can't you accept it!"

"This money, if left in the Marquis' Mansion, would only be a few pieces of clothing and jewelry for the nobles, but if it is put in the hands of Cihang Temple, it can save many homeless orphans!"

"The Marquis' Mansion can accumulate so much virtue just by spending a little money. It's really a bargain for them!"

"This Cihang Temple is indeed a place outside the secular world. The temple master is so indifferent to fame and wealth, and does not covet money!"
