Song Zhiyu's prediction was spot-on. When he learned how selfish the third brother was and that he upset Song Ci, Song Zhiyuan immediately summoned him and gave him a stern lecture, then sent him to oversee the renovation of the new guest courtyard at Xingshan Temple. He suggested this would also be an opportunity for him to cultivate his mind, with even his leave already taken care of.
Dare Song Zhiqing oppose?
He did not dare, so he obediently packed his things and went to Xingshan Temple, to let the Zen sounds there cleanse the ghosts in his heart.
He certainly wouldn't admit it was due to the eldest brother's intimidating pressure.
With Song Zhiqing absent from the home, Song Ci felt the air was noticeably fresher, improving his mood as well.
