Hence, there's a saying: "A new Emperor brings a new court."
The current Emperor favors the Dao, but the next may not.
By that time, Xu Qing would be in his prime. Should he enter the court and advocate for the Great Zen Temple, wouldn't that be...
Unfortunately, he and his fellow disciples are merely secular disciples with little say within the monastery.
This matter could be discussed with Monk Yan Kong from the Golden Ray Monastery.
After all, Golden Ray Monastery is already deeply bound with Xu Qing.
Upon further reflection, Guard Wang realized the old monk was truly astute; through the incense money issue, he managed to get on board with Xu Qing directly.
While Monk Fayue put his life on the line out there, the old monk reaped all the benefits and even solved the financial woes of the Golden Ray Monastery.
Don't assume it's easy for those with martial prowess in Golden Ray Monastery to make money.
