?Chapter 111: Chapter 111 Coming Forward (1)_1 Chapter 111: Chapter 111 Coming Forward (1)_1 “Such a lively scene, I do love a spectacle.” Just as Lin Ziyin felt she could take no more, Si Jinhan emerged from the hillside like a deity.
With the fall of his words, the two old women holding down Lin Ziyin were flung aside, and the one who had been slapping her curiously fell onto a nearby rock, blood spurting from her mouth.
“Third son?” The voice from the sedan carried a tone of anger and surprise.
“Consort Gao, so powerful. I heard that those who come to Ding’an Temple to worship Buddha are usually of good heart, and thus fulfilled. It seems that Consort Gao has not held the Buddha’s compassion in her heart.” Si Jinhan spoke cheerfully, but his eyes did not smile. “By the way, I wonder if the Prince knows of Consort Gao’s actions?”
“Third son.” A delicate hand extended from the sedan curtain, leading a maid to quickly approach and open the sedan door. A woman in broad red sleeves appeared before everyone’s eyes.
When people saw the woman’s face, they gasped in admiration.
Consort Gao looked at Si Jinhan with a faint smile, “I didn’t expect to meet Young Master Si here. I came to Ding’an Temple to worship Buddha with a compassionate heart. However, this girl was so ungrateful, she dirtied my sedan and maids with filth. If Buddha sees this, would he not think I am insincere?”
“Little girl, what have you brought?” Si Jinhan ignored her, but looked down at Lin Ziyin at his feet.
Lin Ziyin’s face was swollen, the pain nearly making her cry. Because of the swelling, her eyes were reduced to thin slits barely allowing her to see the people before her.
It didn’t matter if they were monks from the temple or not, as long as they could save her.
“Young Master Si, I brought my family’s new products today, intending to let the temple masters taste them. But today, as Her Highness came and the crowd admiring her was too much, I was pushed out. Not holding firmly to the contents in my arms, I scared Her Highness. It’s all my fault.” Lin Ziyin smiled bitterly as she responded.
Everything that happened, she had suffered. She was not foolish, she could hear from the woman’s words that this noble woman before her was intentionally picking on her. Perhaps her being pushed down earlier was not an accident.
If she was not mistaken, this woman’s hostility towards her must be related to Prince Ling.
She had heard that the world of nobility was full of scheming, Lin Ziyin didn’t expect that without stepping foot in the prince’s residence, she would fall into such misfortune.
“Amitabha.” As she finished speaking, a monk’s chanting echoed from above.
After hearing Lin Ziyin’s words, Consort Gao was filled with anger. This girl was indeed glib, even after dirtying her sedan she still tried to drag her into the mess.
What made her even angrier was that the things in the basin were supposed to be food for the temple?
The surrounding people who heard Lin Ziyin’s words began to whisper. Those who came to worship naturally had faith in the Buddha and Bodhisattva. Since the stuff in the basin was food for the temple, associating it with the Buddha and Bodhisattva was inevitable, so when they remembered Consort Gao calling them dirt earlier, the crowds’ looks towards her subtly changed.
Consort Gao was extremely angry. She was a consort bestowed by the Emperor to the Prince Ling residence. In this Feng City of the Northern Land, how many women could rank above her? Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, her coming to Ding’an Temple was a matter of grace for the temple.
But only she knew that in front of the Great Monk of Ding’an Temple she was nothing, not to mention in the eyes of Si Jinhan, the favored one of Prince Ling. Compared to him, her role as a consort was far less significant.
