Su Mu waved at him and said, ”Stand up, you are?”
The young monk was around 20 years old and holding a broom in his hand, he should be a cleaner. Su Mu looked at him carefully, and other than him not being very calm at the start, he was not very afraid now. Su Mu thought to herself, he should also be someone who had seen the world.
Su Mu was a bit puzzled. Normally, people in the countryside would never see someone with a high position. As the concubine he was currently, being scolded like this by her, he would never be this calm.
Although he was thinking this in his heart, Su Mu only smiled and said to him, ”Little monk, are you going to clean up today?”
Zhuo Qingfeng interrupted, ”Didn't you guys sweep the floor earlier this morning? What? How many times a day? ”
The little monk said to Zhuo Qingfeng, ”Lady, you don't know this, this is the rules of our temple, because esteemed guests are here …”
As he said this, he stealthily glanced at Su Mu. Su Mu knew that the guest he was referring to should be herself. Then, she must maintain a clean and tidy appearance in the temple. Perhaps the unimportant guest was referring to her …
”Empress, I wonder if you're here to find our Reverend?” If he did not say it like this, Su Mu did not feel that anything was wrong. As he said this, Su Mu looked towards the building where she was standing. She was right, this should be the place where Reverend Fang lived, but compared to Su Mu's room, this place was extremely simple and crude, with tiles almost falling down.
The little monk seemed to notice Su Mu's doubt and said to her, ”Esteemed wangfei, you don't know about it. Our abbot smiled simply, never putting the major and minor matters of his life to heart. He only cares about the others!”
After he finished speaking, he even smiled at Su Mu.
Su Mu looked at him and said expressionlessly, ”No matter what, it's been hard on you. But, I want to ask you, when did the frescoes on the walls appear?”
It was as if he was thinking about something. After thinking for a long time, he still shook his head and said to Su Mu, ”Empress, this little monk did not know that since he came to the temple, the mural has been around since he came here. This little monk came here two years ago!”
In other words, it was already engraved two years ago? This was in line with Su Mu's deduction.
The little monk's broom was getting tighter and tighter. It was obvious that he was busy sweeping the floor. Perhaps there was a rule within the temple?
Su Mu said to him, ”Since that's the case, little monk, you can go and busy yourself with your own things. No need to guard this place anymore, I have my own matters to attend to!”
After the little monk left, Su Mu thought to himself, I might need to go to the abode of the abbot to have a look, maybe I have some clues! After all, there were too many secrets in Jade Dragon Temple.
Before she could get close, she saw two women dressed up.
Su Mu was shocked. Jade Dragon Temple was a magnificent national temple and was filled with monks. There were no women. Why were there two girls coming out of the abbot's room?
