Su Taoyao moved to Jizhao Nunnery, which is a nunnery that almost everyone in the capital knows about. It was built for the princess of the previous dynasty. The threshold is very high, but it is not a good place to go.
Only the wives of officials who made mistakes and were abandoned, or the wives of officials who were young and widowed and had no heirs, would become monks here. Basically, they would lead monks to practice Buddhism, so the name was very lonely, called Jizhao'an.
But after all, it was built by the eldest princess of the former dynasty who lost her beloved consort in her early years. It can be regarded as a royal nunnery, and its grade is still higher.
No idlers are allowed to enter, and men are not allowed to enter regardless of their status. There are also female warrior monks patrolling on weekdays to ensure the reputation of the ladies who lead the practice here.
After all, there are many disputes at the widow's door, and if the nunnery is not strictly managed, it will not be nice to speak out.
However, there are not many here like Su Taoyao, the legitimate daughter of a serious official family, and there are not many rich ladies who come to become a monk before they are officially married.
In order to save his face, Prime Minister Su Zuo made all the arrangements and spent a lot of money to buy Su Taoyao the largest and quietest villa in Jizhao'an.
When Su Taoyao came over, she was riding in the most luxurious carriage in the Su family, but she only brought with her a low-level maid who did menial work in her own yard, and her total luggage was no more than four boxes.
The master of Puhui Nunnery in Jizhao Nunnery personally welcomed Su Taoyao, took her around the nunnery, and finally asked her to choose one of her favorites from the best monasteries.
Su Taoyao chose Qingyue Yuan, which is the outermost part of the nunnery. It is located halfway up the mountain, separated by a wall from the outside of the nunnery, and the shortest straight-line distance from the General's Mansion at the foot of the mountain is only two hundred meters.
The master of Puhui Nunnery knew the reason why Su Taoyao came to Jizhao Nunnery to lead her practice. Seeing that she chose a courtyard closest to the General's Mansion, he naturally thought that she was still trapped by love.
She held the beads and clasped her hands together: "Amitabha, Donor Su, why are you doing this? This person has passed away, why do you need to trap yourself in the past?
You are still young and unmarried, so your practice in our nunnery is only temporary. I still hope that you can figure it out and come out. People still have to look forward."
Su Taoyao returned the favor and said, "Thank you Lord Puhui for your enlightenment, but I have nothing else to ask for. This courtyard is quite nice, and it can be closer to my old friend, so that's good."
Seeing this, the master of Puhui Temple said nothing more. He just felt it was a pity in his heart and told her to go to the front courtyard to find her anytime in the future. Then he left with a long sigh.
Su Taoyao lived in Qingyue Yuan, which was the most remote, but had the largest yard and the quietest environment.
The rough servant girl she brought was named Xiaoyan. When she entered the house, she was sold a death deed. She brought the person, and the death deed was naturally obtained.
She is very smart and can read, but her ears are not very good at hearing. Last year, she had a high fever that burned her ears. It was when she was about to die from a high fever that her aunt viciously assigned her to the original owner's yard as a rough maid.
The original owner didn't want her to die of illness in his yard, so he asked the doctor to cure her, so she was very loyal to the original owner.
Su Taoyao chose to take her because of her bad ears and loyalty. After all, her yard might be quite lively in the future, so her bad ears would make things easier for her.
Moreover, this kind of loyal little maid will definitely not say anything even if she hears something. She is also smart and convenient when she is occasionally sent to do things.
Not to mention, it is a royal nunnery after all. Not only does it have a good environment, but the food is also pretty good.
Three meals a day are delivered by a special little nun. They are all vegetarian meals cooked by the retired royal chef. Her skills can make vegetarian dishes have a meaty taste and are quite delicious. They are no different from what normal people eat.
.
There is good hot tea and sweet snacks in the afternoon, and porridge and side dishes for supper in the evening.
Not only did Su Taoyao not feel bitter after staying here, but she also felt that this place was similar to a modern resort that specializes in healthy and light food. It was a rare place of leisure and freedom.
Of course, she didn't forget her mission, and she secretly started doing things at night.
She wrote a secret letter to Xiao Yan and asked her to find a reason to go out at night and put the secret letter in the bridge hole under the small bridge at the end of Chengnan Street. There was no need to ask about the rest, but she had to ensure that no one discovered it.
Xiao Yan nodded solemnly, and after returning from a trip in the evening, he reported to Su Taoyao that he had done it.
The next night, Su Taoyao asked Xiao Yan to go to the bridge hole again, and this time Xiao Yan brought back a letter.
He opened the letter and put it on a candle to bake it for a while, and the writing appeared on the white paper, which was Huo Guang's reply.
Her letter last night was written to Huo Guang. That bridge hole was the place where the Ling family army secretly transmitted information. Only Ling Yun and the most important people in the Ling family army knew about it.
She would know that it was because the golden finger of the slag removal system was turned on, but Huo Guang and the others naturally thought that Ling Yun had told Su Taoyao before.
In last night's letter, Su Taoyao sold all the information about the original owner, Prime Minister Su Zuo.
From today's palace meeting, who did he join with for what reason to divide Ling Yun's power in the court, including the person he secretly supported was the third prince, what method he wanted to use in the future to seize the military power of the Ling family army and give it to the third prince, etc.
After Su Taoyao carefully read the original trajectory several times, he told Huo Guang all about Prime Minister Su Zuo's plan, which he thought he knew.
Her excuse was also very simple. She knew all this information when she was in Su's mansion. It doesn't matter how she knew it. She just knew it anyway.
Moreover, she also knew that Prime Minister Su Zuo arranged for someone to fuel the quarrel between Ling Fei and the young masters on the flower boat that night. It was equivalent to the fact that Prime Minister Su Zuo indirectly killed Ling Yun.
So she felt resentful and told them all the information.
He also asked Huo Guang not to tell Ling Fei that she found out, but that it was the Ling Family Army who found out on their own.
Let them make good use of this information to help Ling Fei respond in time. More importantly, let them see if they can use this information to gain the trust and reuse of Ling Fei from the emperor and the prince.
Huo Guang's reply to Su Taoyao today was to thank her for providing this information.
He also told her about the situation of today's court meeting. As expected in her letter, Prime Minister Su Zuo began to eagerly carve up Ling Yun's power in the court.
From then on, Huo Guang often wrote secret letters to Su Taoyao, reporting on the situation of the court and Ling Fei.
Seven days later, Huo Guang wrote in a secret letter to Su Taoyao that Ling Fei's injuries from the military stick had basically healed and he was able to get up early to practice Kung Fu on his own this morning.
That night, the slag removal system urgently reminded Su Taoyao: "Quick, quick, quick, Ling Fei climbed over the wall from the General's Mansion and came to your yard in the back mountain. Hurry up and set up a character!"
Su Taoyao, who was lying on her side on the toffee chair, twisting cakes and watching the sadomasochistic love between humans and animals in the World of Beasts while eating, quickly got up and ran to the room next door where Lingyun's spiritual tablet was placed, pretending to be concentrating on chanting sutras.
And half an hour later, a fire broke out in Qingyueyuan where Su Taoyao lived.
In less than half a quarter of an hour, flames shot into the sky and the entire courtyard was enveloped in thick smoke.
