Princess Jiarong was a famous Buddhist believer. She had her own small temple in the General's Mansion. After Xiao Rong went to the border, she prayed to Buddha every day.
Moreover, she seemed to hold Zhenghai in high regard. If she were to find out that the master she liked was like that, she would probably be heartbroken.
"Princess, I have something important to discuss with you. I hope you won't be too sad."
Jiujiu had just finished asking Zhenghai when she suddenly said that she hoped she wouldn't be too sad. Princess Jiarong was stunned. She immediately thought of her son who was fighting at the border and her heart began to panic. "Did something happen to Xiao Rong?"
Thinking of what happened to Xiao Rong, Princess Jiarong's heart began to panic. Cold sweat appeared on her forehead and her hands and feet turned cold. Her vision turned dark and she almost fainted on the ground.
Jiujiu's original intention was to reveal Zhenghai's true colors so that Princess Jiarong wouldn't be too sad. However, she didn't expect Princess Jiarong to have such thoughts. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Jiujiu supported Princess Jiarong. "Princess, you're thinking too much. It's not about Xiao Rong."
Hearing that it wasn't about Xiao Rong, Princess Jiarong finally calmed down. Her hands and feet that were weak from being too nervous now had a bit more strength and warmth.
Jiujiu and Li Guiqin helped Princess Jiarong sit down in a private room. Jiujiu then said, "Princess, there's something wrong with Master Zhenghai."
Princess Jiarong wholeheartedly worshipped Buddha. She had never doubted a Buddhist master's character. When she heard Jiujiu say that there was something wrong with Master Zhenghai, Princess Jiarong was instantly stunned.
Although Princess Jiarong admired Master Zhenghai, she was willing to believe in Jiujiu, her future daughter-in-law.
Moreover, Jiujiu was now a doctor who saved the dying and healed the injured. Some time ago, she had even heard that she had saved a patient with a fatal disease. After knowing that the patient's family was poor, she did not take a single cent. With such a noble character, she naturally trusted Jiujiu more.
When she heard Jiujiu say that there was something wrong with Zhenghai, Grand Princess Jiarong immediately asked, "Why do you say that?"
"As you know, Your Highness, I'm a physician, so I'm very sensitive to the smell of medicine. When Master Zhenghai approached me just now, other than the sandalwood, I also smelled a very strong fragrance."
Princess Royal Jiarong knew that Jiujiu could distinguish the smell of herbs just by smelling them. It was also because of this that she believed Jiujiu's claim that she smelled the sleeping incense on Zhenghai's body.
Since Zhenghai was the abbot of the Cold Mountain Temple, it was normal for him to smell like sandalwood. However, it was abnormal for him to smell like knockout incense.
Princess Royal Jia Rong grew up in the royal family and had seen the dirty things of the Emperor. In an instant, she understood something.
The worship of Buddha, which was supposed to last for several days, only lasted for one day. Jiujiu heard that the abbot of the Cold Mountain Temple was found to be committing adultery in public.
The reputation of the Cold Mountain Temple was as good as it was now.
Overnight, the Cold Mountain Temple changed from a famous temple to an existence that was hated by everyone.
As for Zhenghai, he went from a master to a prisoner.
When Princess Royal Jia Rong thought of how Zhenghai had urged her to let Jiujiu become a monk, she thought of something deeper and began to torture Zhenghai.
Although Zhenghai was a monk, he had lived like a prince for many years. How could he withstand the torture of words and deeds? It didn't take long for him to confess.
He said that a few days ago, someone had sent him a portrait of Jiujiu. Only then did he understand what was wrong with Jiujiu.
That portrait was quickly sent to Princess Royal Jia Rong.
The person who could draw Jiujiu's portrait had naturally seen Jiujiu before. There were only so many people in the capital who were good at drawing portraits. Princess Royal Jia Rong had someone take the portrait to find out who had bought it.
Soon, the person who had bought the portrait was found.
Li Xiuwan.
When Li Xiuwan was still dreaming that Jiujiu's innocence had been taken by Zhenghai and she had no chance with Xiao Rong, she was called to the general's manor by Princess Royal Jia Rong.
This was the first time Li Xiuwan had seen Princess Royal Jia Rong since her rebirth.
Princess Royal Jia Rong was beautiful like a blooming peony. She was rich and powerful, but because of her aura, Li Xiuwan couldn't breathe.
Even if she had been reborn and saw Princess Royal Jia Rong again, Li Xiuwan couldn't help but sigh. Her heart was filled with fear.
Princess Royal Jia Rong sat in place and watched Li Xiuwan lie on the ground. Her gloved fingers gently tapped on the table.
The glove made a clanking sound as it hit the table.
It was like Li Xiuwan's heart was being hit. Li Xiuwan's eyes couldn't help twitching and her heart couldn't help becoming nervous.
Princess Royal Jia Rong looked at Li Xiuwan kneeling on the ground and clicked her tongue in her heart.
When Xiao Rong liked Li Xiuwan, Princess Royal Jia Rong had specially gone to see Li Xiuwan once.
Li Xiuwan didn't know she was there that time, so her words and actions were very free.
At that time, Princess Royal Jia Rong felt that although this girl was beautiful, she was short sighted. She couldn't hide her pettiness in her words and actions. She could be a concubine, but if she wanted to be a main wife, she was a bit lacking.
However, it was as if her son was possessed by a ghost. His entire heart was filled with this Li Xiuwan. As his mother, if she said too much, he would be unhappy instead.
This was the first time in many years that Xiao Rong's heart had been moved. Since he liked her, she would be his main wife. She would help teach him.
However, Princess Royal Jia Rong still felt that Xiao Rong would suffer a loss if he married Li Xiuwan.
However, she never thought that she wouldn't like Li Xiuwan and Li Xiuwan wouldn't like her.
She had a vice minister's daughter who dared to humiliate her in front of everyone.
This made Princess Royal Jia Rong, who didn't have a good impression of Li Xiuwan, remember Li Xiuwan in her heart.
However, she never thought that after Xiao Rong saw Jiujiu, it was like he had eaten a miracle pill. He didn't mention Li Xiuwan anymore.
Princess Royal Jia Rong saw that Li Xiuwan was tactful and didn't linger in front of her, so she slowly forgot about this person.
However, she never thought that when Li Xiuwan wasn't in front of her, she would appear and do bad things behind her back.
She even gave Jiujiu's portrait to that perverted monk.
If she was moved by Zhenghai's words and let Jiujiu shave her head and become a monk, if Jiujiu didn't smell the fragrance on Zhenghai's body, if she didn't investigate carefully?
If there was a mistake in any part, Jiujiu would be left with a huge amount of regret.
No matter what went wrong, Princess Royal Jia Rong wouldn't forgive her.
After Jiujiu appeared, she helped her find Xiao Rong's heart. Jiujiu quickly gained the love of the emperor, empress, and empress dowager. Jiujiu helped Xiao Rong grow. After Xiao Rong left, Jiujiu opened a clinic to save people.
