275 Cold Mountain Temple

“That’s not impossible!”

Lu Ze just made an offhand remark, but Pei Qian, who was racking his brains to find a place for the fourth prince to stay, immediately perked up. “We can let the fourth prince stay in the villa beside Cold Mountain Temple!”

Firstly, the environment at Cold Mountain Temple was quiet and the scenery was pleasant. Secondly, if he stayed at Cold Mountain Temple, it would definitely be inconvenient to enter and leave Cloud Mountain City. The fourth prince would be able to stay at Cold Mountain Temple until he returned to the capital!

Many trouble could be avoided, so this arrangement couldn’t be better!

Why hadn’t he thought of this before?!

With this suggestion, Lu Ze and Lin Suisui had a few thirdwheels in the convoy.

As Lu Ze accompanied Lin Suisui in the carriage, he ignored Pei Qian, Wei Qing, and the others, who were riding horses and talking to each other excitedly.

At first, Lu Ze and the others in the carriage were fine with Pei Qian and the others outside. However, as the convoy moved forward and left the city in the direction of the West Mountain, Pei Qian began to knock on the carriage.

“Erlang, it’s rare for the weather to be so good today. Don’t you want to ride a horse to enjoy the weather? How about we set off from here and turn around at the mountain pass?

How about the loser pays for the food and wine?!”

Lu Ze was so annoyed that the veins on his forehead twitched. When he heard Pei Qian talking outside the window, he finally couldn’t take it anymore. He rolled down the window and said to Pei Qian, “Alright, I’ll run this round with you. If you lose, you don’t have to pay for the food and wine. Just shut up!”

Pei Qian laughed loudly outside the carriage. After Lu Ze looked down at Lin Suisui, who was sleeping soundly on the couch, he carefully pulled over a cloak from the side to cover her. Then, he stood up quietly and opened the car door. He called in Bai Guo and the others, who were waiting outside, to take care of Lin Suisui. Then, he got on the horse that Su Qi had brought over and quickly galloped forward with Pei Qian, Wei Qing, Zhou Hengchang, and his followers.

Su Le called for the guards behind him to protect the carriage as they continued to travel towards the West Mountain.

When Lin Suisui woke up , the carriage was almost outside Cold Mountain Temple.

The few people who had originally agreed to return from the mountain pass didn’t return as promised. They only arranged for someone to send a letter back and let Lin Linsui rest in Cold Mountain Temple.

Thinking that Lu Ze and the others definitely had something to discuss, Lin Suisui didn’t interfere and followed the reception monk who was waiting at the door into the temple.

After following the usual prayer routine, Lin Suisui didn’t even forget to instruct Bai Guo to pay a hundred taels of incense for the soldiers who had died on the battlefield to guard the border.

“I’ve always heard that very few people like you, who are proficient in medicine, believe in Buddhism.” Bai Guo supported Lin Suisui while walking towards the wing at the back of the temple slowly. Thinking of how Lin Suisui had kowtowed piously just now, she couldn’t help but feel a little curious.

“I don’t believe in Buddhism.” Lin Suisui nodded. She didn’t avoid the question and only replied with a smile, “It’s just that this is their territory, so since we’re here, we have to follow their rules. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Secondly, we don’t pray just because we believe in it. Sometimes, we just want to feel at ease.”

“Why must we squeeze in such a small courtyard when there’s a spacious empty courtyard?!” Before Lin Suisui and the others could follow the reception monk to the courtyard where they were staying, they saw a young woman in a red cloak in front of them. She said angrily to the reception monk who was guiding them, “My sister-in-law is pregnant with twins now. This courtyard is so small. If she gets injured, can you bear the responsibility?!”

“Minniang, we’re just resting for the time being. When your brother comes over later, we’ll go back! There’s really no need to make such a big fuss.”

A young woman surrounded by old women and maidservants was standing at the entrance of the courtyard at the side. She called out to the girl in red, “Let’s go in quickly. Don’t make things difficult for this young master!”

“Sister-in-law, you’re too gentle. That’s why you were bullied! This courtyard is clearly more spacious. Marquis Beining’s ministry comes to Cold Mountain Temple to give incense money quite often, but they arranged such a small courtyard for us! They clearly don’t take us seriously!”

When the girl in red heard her sister-in-law’s words, not only did she not give up, but she became even angrier.

She pushed the female servant beside her away and pointed at another courtyard angrily. “Why can they stay in that spacious place while we have to be sent here?!

“Sister-in-law, think about it. If you continue to suffer like this, can we still hold our heads up in the residence in the future?!”

“I know you’re unhappy, but Minniang, we came in a hurry this time and didn’t inform the temple in advance. It’s reasonable that they didn’t leave us a courtyard!

Besides, if another family had informed them in advance, it would make sense that they’re staying there now.

You’re dissatisfied because Sister-in-law and the others are staying in that big courtyard, but Sister-in-law has more people accompanying her this time. Isn’t it better for us to stay in this small courtyard?

“Don’t make things difficult for the person who lead the way! Come in quickly. Let’s have some hot tea. Your brother will be here soon.”

The woman with a slightly bulging abdomen had an extremely good temper. Although she was shouted at by this woman, she wasn’t angry. Instead, she continued to reason with her nicely.

“Second Sister-in-law is indeed an eloquent person. As soon as she spoke, you made your cowardice and timidity sound so justified. How impressive!”

The girl in red had already lowered her head and turned around to return to her sister-in-law’s side. Unexpectedly, a woman in a red dress walked out of the spacious courtyard door that had been closed previously.

However, although she was also wearing a red dress, compared to the girl just now, the mean look on her face was too obvious, making her originally pretty face look ugly.

She sneered at the young woman as she walked towards the courtyard door.

“Song Minggui, what nonsense are you talking about?!” Song Mingmin had originally planned to follow her sister-in-law back to the courtyard, but now that she was provoked by her nemesis, she was naturally furious again. She turned around and pointed at the girl who was causing trouble at the door as she scolded, “How dare you be rude to my sister-in-law? As expected of someone raised by a mistress. You don’t have any manners at all!”
