Chapter 315 This Incense Table Is Wrong
Under public scrutiny, so many talisman papers were smashed out of the statue of the Goddess of Childbirth. There was no way to conceal it.
The master of Chongxu Temple admitted his fault directly.
"I am ashamed, ashamed. Such a big mistake was made. It was the fault of Chongxu Temple and this poor Taoist."
"I am sorry to all the donors. I should not have put all my thoughts on studying the mystical arts and scriptures, which led to Taoist Qingyang making such a big mistake."
"In order to make up for all the donors, I promise that the money for the statue today will be returned to everyone tenfold. In addition, I will have someone recast a batch of statues. Anyone present today can take a new statue home without paying for the donation."
"I would like to trouble the prince to help Chongxu Temple bear witness to this matter. I will definitely handle it properly and will never ignore it."
This master of Chongxu Temple is really flexible.
Not only did he sincerely admit his mistakes and apologize in front of so many people, but he also put all the blame on Taoist Qingyang.
He also promised to return the money that the women had paid for the statues, and compensate them tenfold, and everyone present would give them a new statue.
He was so sincere that no one dared to hold on to him.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the prince said, "It is great to know your mistakes and improve them. Since there is a mistake, it must be handled properly. Fortunately, it did not lead to a big mistake, but you must remember it in the future and never make it again."
The master of the temple nodded repeatedly in agreement.
Even the prince said so, and the women were no longer angry, and even became happy.
Although the statues they asked for were not as valuable as the wife of Nan'an Marquis, Chongxu Temple promised to compensate them tenfold, so they not only did not lose anything, but also made a profit.
Seeing that no one was pursuing the matter, the master of the temple resumed his immortal demeanor.
Although they had to pay ten times the compensation, this little bit of money was not even a drop in the bucket for their Chongxu Temple.
It was a good deal to be able to restore their reputation with a little money.
As long as their Chongxu Temple's reputation remained, they would still be able to get a steady stream of incense money in the future.
Nan'an Hou's wife was not as happy as those women.
Chongxu Temple hid so many talismans in the statues. She didn't think that as the master of a temple, she would not know about such a big thing.
It was just that they saw that Taoist Qingyang was dead, so they pushed all the blame on him and cleared themselves of all blame.
Chongxu Temple used these unorthodox methods to seize other people's things. How was this different from murder for money?
As the crown prince, the prince actually let them go so easily. It was really inappropriate.
Although Nan'an Hou's wife was dissatisfied, she was a woman from an outsider, so it was not easy for her to accuse the prince in front of so many people.
With a sigh, he took Wang Zhaofang to Ling Chu, "Miss Ling, thanks to you today, otherwise Fangfang would be in trouble."
If those talismans transfer the fortune, wealth, longevity, happiness and wealth on Wang Zhaofang, the baby in her belly will definitely not be saved.
Thinking of her grandson, the wife of Nan'an Marquis had no intention of staying any longer. After thanking Ling Chu, she took Wang Zhaofang back.
The women also thanked Ling Chu. After all, if she hadn't found the talisman in the statue, they would not have had the opportunity to get so much compensation silver.
Ling Chu was not polite to the women's thanks, and accepted them all with a smile.
These merits just helped her to maintain her health.
Listening to the women's gratitude to Ling Chu, Taoist Wu was so angry that his face turned black.
Although the master of the temple looked like a fairy, he looked at Ling Chu with a hint of displeasure.
He paid a large sum of silver, but in the end he spent money to help Ling Chu win people's hearts.
After collecting the merits, Ling Chu walked towards the Sanqing Temple.
Taoist Wu was so scared that he didn't care about being angry anymore, and subconsciously rushed over to block her.
"Fellow Daoist Ling, you are from Xuanqing Temple, it's not good for you to stay in our Chongxu Temple, please leave."
Ling Chu raised her eyebrows, it was impossible to leave, she hadn't finished smashing, how could she leave.
"Although I am from Xuanqing Temple, you also worship the Three Pure Ones. Since I'm here, I have to burn a stick of incense to the three ancestors before I can leave, don't you think?"
Although Ling Chu's words were not wrong, Taoist Wu felt uneasy, he always felt that she was a little weird.
Before, she said she wanted to go to Yuanjun Temple to see the excitement, but she found the secret in the statue of the Goddess of Childbirth.
Now she said she wanted to go to Sanqing Temple to burn incense, he always felt that something would happen.
Taoist Wu didn't want Ling Chu to go in, but he had no reason to stop her.
She wanted to burn incense for the ancestor, not to mention that Taoist Wu couldn't stop her, even the temple master couldn't find fault with it.
Besides, the prince was watching from the side. If they didn't let Ling Chu in, the prince would definitely be suspicious.
The temple master could only put on an immortal look and said, "So you are the disciple of Xuanyi Zhenren, then you should burn incense for the ancestor. Taoist Ling, please..."
Ling Chu didn't hesitate and walked towards the Sanqing Hall.
After entering the hall, Ling Chu took three incense sticks, lit them, and after bowing respectfully, inserted them into the incense burner.
The prince stood aside with his hands behind his back, watching silently.
The temple master's eyes also fell on Ling Chu from time to time. He heard that Xuanyi Zhenren accepted a female disciple early in the morning, and he didn't expect that she was so young.
Taoist Wu endured the pain all over his body and stared at Ling Chu closely.
Seeing that she lit incense but didn't leave, instead staring at the incense table in front of the Three Pure Ones, his heart suddenly pounded like thunder.
Just as Taoist Wu was racking his brains to think of how to get Ling Chu to leave, a majestic voice came from the door of the hall, "What are you looking at?"
Everyone turned their heads in unison.
Seeing the bright yellow figure at the door, the prince was stunned for a moment, but soon reacted, "Your son greets the emperor."
The temple master, Taoist Wu and others were shocked and knelt down to greet him.
Ling Chu was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the prince came to Chongxu Temple and the emperor also came.
Seeing that everyone knelt, Ling Chu could only kneel down to greet him.
Ning Chuyi, who was standing behind the emperor, glanced into the hall, frowned, and soon returned to normal.
The emperor glanced at everyone and raised his hand gently, "No need to greet."
After everyone calmed down, the emperor looked at Ling Chu, "Miss Ling, what were you looking at just now?"
As expected of the emperor, he could see something unusual with just one glance.
Ling Chu smiled and pointed to the large table filled with offerings in the hall and said, "Your Majesty, I just burned incense for the three ancestors and found that there was something wrong with this incense table."
As soon as he finished speaking, Taoist Wu's pupils trembled.
The abbot's heart tightened, and before the emperor could speak, he said, "This incense table is indeed a bit old, and it is indeed not appropriate to place it in the Sanqing Hall."
After explaining it casually, the abbot turned around and waved to the two Taoists beside him, "Take this incense table down and replace it with a new one."
The two Taoists responded and just removed the offerings on the incense table.
Ling Chu waved his hand and hammered.
With a loud bang that caught him off guard, the incense table was immediately broken into two pieces.
A bright yellow robe corner was revealed inside.
Taoist Wu's eyes went dark immediately, and he wished he could faint directly. (End of this chapter)
