Zhu Wencong brought his wives to Jing'an Temple, which wasn't within Songjiang County but rather on the land of the International Concession.
If Songjiang County could be described as an isolated city, then Jing'an Temple at this time could be considered a relic, with only broken walls and ruins in sight.
The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom once set a fire here, burning down many palaces and buildings, leaving only one great hall intact.
Although the temple was destroyed, the monks did not leave. Upon the arrival of Zhu Wencong and his party, they exhibited a vigilant demeanor.
"Esteemed patrons, this is a sacred land of the Buddhist Sect, please leave quickly!" Master He Feng said.
"Can't we go in and worship?" Zhu Wencong was particularly interested in Jing'an Temple after the fire, thinking that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom really swept through like locusts.
