Xiao Jue hurriedly helped him up: "General, your words are serious."
Mu Rufeng patted his shoulder, then looked at his wife, sister and Shen Chi, and said, "Take care."
Then he got on his horse and rode away with Youan.
Xin Ruyi felt a little empty in her heart when she sent her husband away.
Now that Mu Rufeng has left, she still doesn’t know how long it will take to come back. Every separation is a torment for her.
She really wanted Mu Rufeng to relieve himself of the burden and just be an ordinary man, her husband and the father of her child.
But he was a general first and then her husband.
"sister in law."
When Mu Xue first saw that Xin Ruyi was a little depressed, she supported her and persuaded her: "Brother will be back soon. It's the first day of the new year. I think it's still early. How about we go to Fahua Temple to burn incense?"
"That's fine."
Xin Ruyi agreed to her proposal.
Because Xiao Jue still wanted to supervise the country, he did not accompany them. However, Shen Chi was not on duty today, so he accompanied their sister-in-law to Fahua Temple.
This Fahua Temple is a temple on the outskirts of Nanyue City and has good incense.
After Xin Ruyi and Mu Xuechu came to Nanyue, they often came here to offer incense and pray for their family and friends far away in Beichen.
After half a stick of incense, the carriage stopped at the mountain gate.
Mu Xuechu helped Xin Ruyi get out of the car and saw that the place was crowded with people. Because it was the first day of the Lunar New Year, many pilgrims came to offer incense.
After entering the mountain gate, you can see that some people are giving alms and porridge here, and there are many beggars and poor people queuing up. This kind of scene can often be seen in Fahua Temple.
Although it is at the feet of the Emperor, there are many beggars and some poor people in the city who do not have enough to eat. They rely on the financial support from Fahua Temple to survive.
And this was all caused by the war.
Nanyue and Beichen have been at war for decades. The treasury of the two countries has suffered losses. Coupled with natural disasters and other events, there will always be some refugees, and Fahua Temple has become the best place for these people to survive.
Mu Xuechu looked at the scene in front of her and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "When Yan Yan gets married, the two countries will be able to recuperate and the people will no longer have to be displaced."
Xin Ruyi thought of her husband and suddenly felt a sense of pride in her heart. Her husband was running around for the peace of the people.
She nodded: "Yeah, let's go in."
The two of them bypassed the queue of beggars and homeless people and were about to enter the main hall when they heard a burst of noise from behind. It turned out that a beggar had been caught stealing a woman's purse.
"You little bitch, if you dare to steal my things, beat me."
This woman was dressed very gorgeously, like the wife of a wealthy family, but she was so courageous that she actually asked the servants to teach the beggar a lesson in the temple.
The beggar was dirty and looked very thin.
The woman's wife grabbed the beggar, raised her hand and slapped him several times, but the beggar didn't say a word and looked very pitiful.
Mu Xuechu couldn't stand it anymore, so she walked over and shouted angrily: "That's enough. How can you, in this pure place of Buddhism, allow you to use lynching indiscriminately?"
The beggar caught by the mother-in-law suddenly moved. In a daze, she felt that the voice was somewhat familiar, so she looked up with difficulty.
When she saw Mu Xuechu's appearance clearly, she was startled for a moment, but she looked frightened, and she couldn't help but spit out one word: "Mother?"
