Chapter 2293: Chapter 2293: Married Another Wife

Master?

Upon seeing this, Shu Yu instantly straightened her back.

Before she set the wedding date last year, she went to Dongqing Temple to inquire about her master’s whereabouts from Senior Sister Qiu. After receiving no results, she requested Senior Sister Qiu to keep an eye out, and if there was any news about her master, to convey to him the news of her upcoming marriage. If possible, she wanted her master to attend her wedding.

Unfortunately, there had been no updates.

The last time they met was two years ago, after having had a meal in Changjin Prefecture, they parted ways hurriedly. At that time, her master mentioned going to the capital.

At the beginning of this year, Shu Yu also inquired about her master’s whereabouts in the capital, but to no avail.

Unexpectedly, her master had gone to the southwest again?

Shu Yu lowered her head and continued reading the letter.

As a former symbol of power in Dongan Province, the Shu family members had all met the Dongqing Temple master. Naturally, Shu Quan also recognized her, and he knew that the Dongqing Temple master was once an honored guest of the late emperor.

Because of this, several princes began to stir. Back when the Shu family had not yet declined, the Second Prince had instructed his uncle, who was the magistrate, to look for the Dongqing Temple master.

However, after being appreciated by the late emperor, the Dongqing Temple master seldom stayed at the temple, her whereabouts being unpredictable. While the Shu family still had some influence in Dongan Province, they lacked it elsewhere, which greatly displeased the Second Prince.

It wasn’t long before the Shu family was investigated and abandoned amidst the power struggles between the Second and Third Princes.

For Shu Quan, the Dongqing Temple master was not merely a temple master; even though she was a worldly outsider, she had been directly or indirectly involved in royal power struggles.

What good intentions could Shu Feng have by being entangled with the Dongqing Temple master?

Especially since the state of the Dongqing Temple master at that time clearly showed she was under Shu Feng’s control, seemingly being pushed along by him into the door.

Upon reading this, Shu Yu’s face immediately changed.

Her master under Shu Feng’s control? How could this be possible, what was Shu Feng trying to do? Anxiously, she continued reading.

Shu Quan stated that he sensed a big problem, and Shu Feng might be planning something major.

Of course, while Shu Quan wished for Shu Feng to ruin himself, he was worried that being part of the Shu family, he might end up being implicated.

Having been exiled to the southwest already led to a hard life, but at least they were still alive. The Shu family could not withstand any more turmoil; if they got drawn into more chaos, they would surely face certain death.

Shu Quan quickly made up his mind to find out Shu Feng’s purpose and the reason why the Dongqing Temple master was under his control.

However, the First and Second Houses of the Shu family had not interacted for a long time; if he approached directly, it would easily arouse Shu Feng’s suspicion.

After much deliberation, Shu Quan decided to focus his efforts on Shu Feng’s wife.

Before the Shu family was confiscated and exiled, Shu Feng was married, but anticipating the impending downfall, his wife’s family first urged them to separate.

Therefore, when Shu Feng was exiled to the southwest, he was alone. After taking two years to come to terms with his situation, he followed the advice of the first Madam Shu and married another local woman.

However, compared to his previous wife, the woman he could marry now was worlds apart, not just in terms of status and background, but also in appearance and temperament.

The current sister-in-law’s looks could only be considered decent; she was illiterate and of a rough nature. In Shu Feng’s eyes, someone who had once had a dignified and graceful wife and a gentle and considerate concubine, she was nothing more than a coarse woman whom he utterly despised.
