Chapter 783: Chapter 783 Dongqing Temple Master Chapter 783: Chapter 783 Dongqing Temple Master Wang Changdong was startled and unconsciously nodded, “Are you looking for Lady Lu?”
Dongqing Temple master raised his eyebrows in surprise, has that little girl reclaimed her last name?
She smiled, “Yes, where is she?”
“Today is New Year’s Eve, Lady Lu has returned to the county town to prepare for the New Year. Are you acquainted with Lady Lu, Daoist nun? If there is an urgent matter, you can tell me, or, I can go to the county town right now to help you find Lady Lu.”
Dongqing Temple master looked at Wang Changdong unexpectedly, hmm… to pass a message for her, to help her find someone, but not directly telling her Shu Yu’s address so she can visit.
This is because he’s afraid she has a grudge against the young girl and will go trouble her.
Surprisingly, it hasn’t been that long, and the young girl is already so impressive that she managed to have the manor’s steward protect her to this extent.
Indeed, even in her absence, the young girl does not need her to worry.
Thus, she can be at ease.
Dongqing Temple master said kindly, “I indeed am an old acquaintance of that young girl, traveling and passing by this place, I wanted to see her. Since she is not in the village, there is no need to insist on a meeting. My Lord, do you know her? Could you help me deliver something to her?”
“Of course.” Wang Changdong silently breathed a sigh of relief, not an enemy, that’s good, this Daoist nun seems very profound and mysterious, probably a highly respected figure, he still does not hope Lady Lu has any conflict with such a person.
Dongqing Temple master pulled out a pouch from her sleeve and handed it over, “Please help me deliver this.”
Wang Changdong took it, not knowing what was inside, it seemed pretty important, he carefully stored it away.
Dongqing Temple master, “Thank you, My Lord, I shall take my leave now.”
“Eh? Daoist nun, you’re leaving now? It’s New Year’s Eve today, and it’s extremely cold. Why not stay till the New Year is over before leaving?”
In those days, people generally treated monks and nuns with friendliness and respect.
Since he meant no harm, Wang Changdong’s attitude was naturally warm.
Dongqing Temple master thanked him, “No need, I have other matters, so I won’t stay any longer.”
She nodded her head and was about to turn around and leave.
However, after walking a couple of steps, she stopped, turned to Wang Changdong, and asked, “By the way, there’s something else I want to ask My Lord.”
“Please speak, Daoist nun.”
“Has the governor visited Righteous Dao Village?”
Wang Changdong nodded, “He has.” This matter wasn’t a secret; all the villagers in Righteous Dao Village knew it.
Dongqing Temple master nodded, “Then Shu Yu, she has seen the governor too, right?”
“Yes, she has seen him.”
Having received affirmative answers to both questions, Dongqing Temple master smiled contentedly, “Farewell.”
This time she really left.
Wang Changdong stood there, dazed, until her figure gradually vanished at the village entrance, then he touched his head, wondering, “Really not going to see Lady Lu? Wasn’t this trip in vain?”
He pinched the pouch in his sleeve again, this item must be very important.
Wang Changdong turned back into the yard, informed the officer staying at the manor, and prepared to leave early.
With his bag packed, he secured the pouch and hurried towards the county town.
He knew the address of the Lu family in the county town. Holding the pouch, Wang Changdong hadn’t even had the chance to visit his own home, and he went to look for Shu Yu first.
Hearing the knock, Shu Yu thought Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi had come.
