Qing Dynasty Transmigration: Unparalleled Fortune

Tong Chenger lived a bitter life. After her death, a self-proclaimed time administrator, Unit 1314, informed her that her difficult life was due to his mistake during his internship. He promised to...

Chapter Twelve: Ambition and Schemes

After Shuyuan transmigrated, she also inherited the original owner's memories. Apart from some strange behavior at the beginning, the people serving her only thought it was a sequela of falling into the water, and no one suspected anything.

And so, Chen Shuyuan became Shuyuan of the Ulanara clan.

Now that she was certain that Shu Wan had deliberately pushed her into the water, she naturally didn't want to let her go. She didn't want someone who harbored resentment towards her to have a good life.

Because of her appearance, she was more favored than Shuwan. Although Shuwan was also cunning, she was still young and not as shrewd as Shuyuan. In addition, she had a guilty conscience and dared not confront her directly, making her life in the mansion increasingly difficult.

Shuwan initially felt somewhat uneasy and guilty about accidentally pushing Shuyuan into the water, but after being targeted both openly and secretly, those feelings of unease and guilt had long since vanished.

The two sisters fought like roosters, disrupting the originally peaceful Ulanara Mansion and causing turmoil.

In the end, Shuwan was no match for Shuwan's cunning. Jueluo Shi "personally" witnessed Shuwan pushing Shuyuan down, causing her to fall hard. As a result, Shuwan was punished by being confined to her quarters for half a month and then forced to copy the "Precepts for Women".

Although Yinzhen had promised Kangxi that he would not become a monk, he did not neglect his study of Buddhist scriptures.

He didn't have many opportunities to leave the palace, and he used all those opportunities to go to temples, where he met his dream friend, Master Xingyin.

The master was about the same age as him, but he had grown up in a temple since childhood and was quite knowledgeable in Zen. The two got along very well.

Emperor Kangxi confirmed that his son had no intention of becoming a monk. Although he did not approve of his son's frequenting of temples, he let him be.

In just six months, Yinzhen had developed a habit of visiting Tanzhe Temple on the fifteenth of every month.

Yinzhen never concealed his whereabouts, which led Shuyuan to notice some clues.

Shu Wan thought to herself, "It seems that the story in the novel about the Fourth Prince liking to go to temples is true."

She felt her chance had come.

When Shuyuan paid her respects to Jueluo, she said, "Mother, my sister has fallen ill. Although it was not caused by me, it was still caused by me. So I want to go to Tantuo Temple to offer incense and pray for my sister's well-being. What do you think, Mother?"

Although Jue Luo was disappointed by her younger daughter's behavior, she was still her own daughter after all. So she was very gratified to see that her older daughter was wronged and did not care about her younger sister.

“You’re so kind. In that case, let’s pick a time and your mother will go with you.”

Shuyuan immediately suggested, "Mother, what do you think about the day after tomorrow? I'm still missing a little bit of the Buddhist scriptures I have. I can finish copying them tomorrow so I can offer them to Buddha and ask Buddha to bless our family with good fortune and my sister with peace and safety soon."

Jue Luo felt that her daughter was really thoughtful, and since she had nothing else to do the day after tomorrow, she agreed.

As for the ailing Shuwan, she naturally couldn't go. Although she was doing it under the guise of praying for Shuwan's well-being, Shuyuan was afraid that history couldn't be changed. Before things were settled, she naturally didn't want Shuwan to appear in any place where the Fourth Prince might be.

She refused to believe it. How could a modern woman like her know so much about the future? The Fourth Prince would definitely be captivated by her once he got to know her.

Unexplained self-confidence.

...

After finishing her business, Shumulu thought about her daughter who stayed at home all day. She had heard from the nanny that the little rascal had worn her down and that she had become lazy again, except for the rules she had to learn every day.

This can't go on.

"Granny, tell me, what's the best way to stop her from being so lazy?"

Shumulu didn't have high expectations for her daughter, but her lazy nature meant that she really didn't like to do anything except eat, sleep, and read storybooks.

If she gets married and has children, her in-laws will probably look down on her.

Although her family of origin is helpful, after marriage, no matter how helpful her family is, she still lives in her husband's family. If she causes any conflict because of this personality, she may not be in the right even if she is reluctant to part with her daughter.

Shumulu still hoped to change Tong Cheng'er's personality.

Granny Fu: "How about the Princess takes the princess out more often, Madam?"

Shumulu shook her head helplessly: "You know her personality. What good will it do to take her out? She'll just find ways to shirk her responsibilities. This method won't work."

Granny Fu continued, "I heard that the Princess and Prince Gong's Princess Huiyu get along quite well. Yesterday, I heard from people in the Princess's courtyard that Princess Huiyu invited the Princess to go to Tantuo Temple to burn incense. The Princess just happened to have a new storybook and is now thinking about how to refuse!"

Shumulu Shi: "What's there to refuse? Since there's someone who doesn't mind her laziness, we can't let her keep staying in the manor. Go tell her to get ready and see when Princess Huiyu made her appointment."

"The fifteenth of this month."

"Then let's go to Tantuo Temple to offer incense the day after tomorrow."

"This servant will go immediately."

...

Every day, a steady stream of worshippers come to Tantuo Temple to offer incense.

Because Master Wenjue was in charge of Tantuo Temple, and this Master Wenjue was very famous among the high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital, many people came to visit him.

Master Wenjue always valued fate; it was extremely rare to meet him and hear him speak even a few words. Things are valued for their rarity, and the same principle applies to people.

Master Wenjue became a highly sought-after figure.

The more elusive Master Wenjue is, the more sought after he becomes.

Whether it is as mysterious as rumored is unknown. However, following the trend is prevalent. Tan Tuo Temple is an ancient temple with a long history. Various reasons have led to the flourishing of incense offerings at Tan Tuo Temple.

Shumulu looked at her daughter's listless appearance and shook her head, saying, "Why do you look like you haven't woken up yet? Should your mother have someone bring you some cold water to wake you up?"
