Chapter 625: Chapter 608: Offering Incense_1

"Going to Huangjue Temple?"

Su Pan’er was quite surprised!

No wonder she had such a reaction, Qin Ru had just moved into Huangjue Temple a few days ago, and now Jun Ruochen said that Old Mrs. Jun wanted to visit Huangjue Temple for incense offering, which made her think more.

"Actually, it’s not just my Jun Family’s grandmother who is going, Old Mrs. Liu will also go. This is because, on the first day of February every year, Master Liao Jue and other old monks would take turns giving sermons at Huangjue Temple. Therefore, the various noble families and prominent figures in Shengjing would all head there."

Jun Ruochen looked at her, "Not only that, they will also go to the Quiet Cloud Nunnery next to Huangjue Temple and make some temple donations. This is a big deal, everyone naturally will go willingly."

Quiet Cloud Nunnery?

Su Pan’er pondered for a moment, then remembered, Wasn’t her so-called younger sister currently worshiping Buddha in the Quiet Cloud Nunnery?

"So, will you go or not? Give me a straight answer!"

Jun Ruochen asked again: "Furthermore, Little Yanyan is at such an age. It’s about time she goes to the temple to fulfill a vow."

"Go, why not? Whoever wouldn’t go where there’s something exciting is a fool!"

The noblewomen of prominent families in Shengjing would go, and she naturally would too.

She didn’t want to plainly say that she was actually more interested in the Quiet Cloud Nunnery, thus she decided to take this trip!

Jun Ruochen breathed a sigh of relief, not until now did he realize that he had been holding his breath.

"Good! Tomorrow morning, we will wait outside the South City Gate. You must come!"

"Definitely!"

Since she had promised Jun Ruochen, Su Pan’er naturally became motivated.

She not only sent people to prepare things for the temple visit, but also carefully selected a competent guard team to accompany her tomorrow, to avoid any unexpected incidents.

She also thought about Qin Yi, not knowing what he was still busy with, and whether he could return early tomorrow.

Su Pan’er was naturally hoping that Qin Yi could return tonight, but unfortunately, she was disappointed!

Early the next morning, she got up early, freshened up, and then proceeded directly to Huangjue Temple in her carriage.

Because she was chased by men in black on the way back to the mansion from the palace last time, this time she went out, she didn’t mind the inconvenience of bringing servants. Not only did she arrange for elite soldiers to guard her, but even the horses and maids by her side were all carefully selected.

Miaoyu was also left behind, while Qingwen and Xiao Min were brought along instead.

The pimple scars on Xiao Min’s face were almost gone, but she was good at doing things efficiently and did not like to cling to Su Pan’er. However, she was very handy in doing things. Plus, Su Pan’er knew her well, so if anything happened, she could surely help, or at least she wouldn’t have problems in escaping.

Inside the carriage, two fire basins were burning brightly. Su Pan’er, holding Little Yanyan, sat in the innermost part, with Aunt Xiao and Nanny Zhou on the left, and Qingwen and Miaoyu on the right. A small table in the middle had a freshly warmed bowl of steamed egg custard made with milk.

Qingwen carefully scooped a small bowl of it and handed it to Su Pan’er: "Madam, the steamed egg custard is ready, you eat first. Let the servants hold Miss for a while!"

"That’s fine, Yanyan is sound asleep now, don’t wake her up."

Su Pan’er carefully handed the child to Xiao Min beside her, then took the bowl: "This thing is nutritious and warms the stomach. Later, when the carriage stops, send a portion to my first cousin brother and Ke’er."

Initially, Su Pan’er wanted Ke’er to take a carriage, but he insisted on riding horseback with Su Huarong, saying it offered a broader view.

However, thinking of the bone-chilling breeze outside, Su Pan’er couldn’t help but worry.

"Yes, my lady."

Aunt Xiao responded, peeking outside, "There are an unusually large number of people leaving the city today, and all belong to the households of the eunuch class. It seems we need to wait a while before it’s our turn to leave. Maybe I should send the hot food to your uncles now."

It wasn’t yet fully bright outside, and yet, already there was a long line of people waiting to leave the city.

"That’s a good idea! Send someone to deliver it now. Eating something hot will keep them warm."

Su Pan’er covertly lifted the carriage curtain and peeked through the narrow slit. As expected, there were people everywhere, covering a large area from their carriage to the city gate. It seemed they would have to wait.

As Su Pan’er predicted, by the time their carriage left the city and let the horses run freely, it was already half an hour later.

Originally, the Jun family’s carriage was supposed to wait outside the city gate, but there was no sign of them. Su Pan’er guessed that they had left for the Huangjue Temple without waiting any longer. Fortunately, the temple wasn’t very far away, so they proceeded directly.

Due to the delay, by the time the carriage reached the foot of the hill leading to Huangjue Temple it was already light.

Holding little Yanyan, Su Pan’er climbed the stone steps to the grand hall. As expected, a monk was preaching there, expounding on the boundlessness of Buddha’s teachings. After listening for a bit, she offered incense and temple donations, and then followed a novice monk to the guest accommodation.

Having settled down by noon, everyone was tired and weary. After giving orders to bring some vegetarian meals and inquire about the Jun family’s whereabouts, they got a reply soon enough.

Su Pan’er wasn’t in a rush either. Rather calmly, she settled down, had her lunch, took a brief nap, and then took little Yanyan to the side palace hall of the temple.

Huangjue Temple had beautiful scenery, and it seemed even more fragrant than Shengjing.

As Su Pan’er strolled along the corridor, she accidentally bypassed the path to the side palace hall and ended up in a courtyard instead.

"Huh?"

Seeing a figure ahead, she let out a soft gasp and quickly stepped back, narrowly avoiding being bumped into by Xiao Min and Nanny Zhou, who promptly halted.

Wasn’t that...Eunuch Wu, who served right beside His Majesty? Despite his ordinary attire, Su Pan’er recognized him immediately. What was he doing here?

If Eunuch Wu was here, did that mean His Majesty was here too?

If His Majesty was indeed at Huangjue Temple, could Qin Yi also be nearby?

With these thoughts, she felt unexpectedly cheerful. Quietly, she retreated and walked a few steps away.

As soon as she left, Eunuch Wu, who was in casual clothes, turned and looked in their direction in surprise. He stepped out and looked around but didn’t see a soul.

Heaving a sigh of relief, he was about to turn back when he spotted several fresh footprints where Su Pan’er had just been standing. He stood there, deep in thought for a moment.

He quickly went back inside, gestured to a secret guard hidden in the shadow of the room’s corner, and gave some orders.

The secret guard nodded repeatedly before making a swift exit.

Unaware of the events unfolding behind her, Su Pan’er went to the side palace hall.

Two novice monks were guarding the entrance of the side palace hall. Upon seeing Su Pan’er, they hurriedly went in to report. Shortly, Jun Ruoxue was seen rushing out.
