The temple master looked at her and laughed: "Are you stupid? No, you are too clever. However, you must remember that too much cleverness can backfire."
The temple master sat back on the chair under the corridor, looking at Gu Jinli, and said: "There's no need to hurry. Everything in this world follows its own destiny. Before the time comes, do not delve too deeply. Knowing too much can sometimes be a disadvantage."
Upon hearing this, Gu Jinli knew she was about 80% correct in her guesses.
She did not ask much further and only asked the temple master, "Will my family be in danger?"
The temple master replied: "Compared to decades ago, there is virtually no danger now."
She was only worried about the new Emperor's temperament, and just in case, she intended to remain hidden from the world.
If the new Emperor no longer mentioned the former dynasty's issues, or if he ended Great Chu himself, then Hu Yun Temple and Gu Jinli's family would all be safe and could openly communicate.
