After conquering seven male favorites, the vicious heroine wants to run away

Chapter 83: Punishment of Life
The abbot missed Fu Sheng and specially invited him to preside over the last blessing ceremony, but there was more than one person in the temple who wanted to compete for the position of the Holy Son.

This also reflects the saying that where there are people, there is war.

So she now has two things to deal with.

The two little monks ran away for some unknown reason. Shi Nuanyu sat on the steps, looking forward to Fusheng's return.

As the night deepened, dark clouds covered the sky and a light rain fell.

Shi Nuanyu reached out to catch the drizzle, feeling an inexplicable sense of unease in her heart.

"Your Highness," a childish voice came, and I heard it before I saw the person, "Please save Senior Brother Du Ri."

Shi Nuanyu looked closely and found that it was the little monk she had seen at dusk. He looked anxious and his body was wet.

"Little monk, what happened to Fusheng?"

The young monk wiped his tears, weeping uncontrollably. "My senior brother wanted to preside over the blessing ceremony tomorrow, but the other senior brothers wouldn't allow it, saying that he was disregarding etiquette."

He wanted to pull Shi Nuanyu and run away, but he was afraid of offending him, so he timidly retracted his outstretched hand.

"Take me there quickly."

Shi Nuanyu took the little monk's hand and ran out of the yard.

The rain was dripping down, and she didn't care about getting wet as she rushed into the night, imagining the punishment that Fusheng was currently suffering.

In the execution hall, Fusheng took off all his clothes and knelt on the ground with his back straight. Two ruthless monks executed him with long sticks in their hands.

The abbot and several masters closed their eyes, clasped their hands together, and muttered something, but no one knew what they were saying.

A group of monks surrounded the yard, each looking at Fusheng with an expressionless face.

As the board fell one after another, Fusheng's back was covered in blood and flesh, and his original appearance could no longer be seen.

When Shi Nuanyu arrived without stopping, she saw that the monks who were usually kind-hearted were like man-eating evil spirits, as if they could wipe out a life in an instant.

She roared coldly, her eyes filled with blazing fire.

"stop."

The monks seemed not to hear her scolding and stared at Fusheng without blinking.

She was about to break in but was stopped by two monks guarding the door with wooden sticks.

Hearing the familiar voice, Fusheng's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and a ripple appeared in his clear and calm eyes.

"You're rebelling," Shi Nuanyu glared at the monk who tried to stop her. "I'm Princess Nanyue, the future Crown Princess. What qualifications do you have to stop me? Fuze Temple, how dare you obstruct me?"

A hint of hesitation flashed in the eyes of the two monks, but they still did not retract the wooden sticks that were blocking them.

The sound of the wooden sticks hitting each other was deafening, and the more wounds on Fusheng's back, the more serious they became.

Shi Nuanyu was anxious, and her cold gaze fell on the abbot and several masters who had their eyes closed.

"Fusheng is my husband, and he has been recorded in the Imperial Jade Book. Fuze Temple has tortured my husband without permission. I have the right to doubt your motives."

"Amitabha, Princess, you are too kind."

Master Wangnian bowed and his eyes fell on the monks guarding the gate. They understood what he meant and stopped trying to stop him.

Shi Nuanyu walked in quickly and found the right moment to stand behind Fusheng when the wooden stick was raised high, looking directly at Master Wangnian without fear.

"It's not up to us to say whether it's serious or not. If you have the guts, make the sticks fall. Fukuzawa Temple can't bear the charge of assaulting the imperial family."

The original book only briefly mentioned this plot and also said that Fusheng paid a huge price for the blessing ceremony, but she did not expect it to be such a price.

Master Wangnian patiently advised, "Fukuzawa Temple cannot bear the charge of assaulting the imperial family. The country has its laws and the temple has its rules. Your Highness, as a member of the imperial family, should abide by the etiquette and laws."

This was to tell her not to meddle in other people's business. But she was determined to meddle in today's affairs.

"I didn't realize that the etiquette of Fukuzawa Temple is superior to that of the Imperial Family. If I'm not mistaken, Fukuzawa Temple is under the Imperial Family and respects the Imperial Family.
Even if a monk made a mistake, Fuze Temple shouldn't have tortured him privately. Do you really think the Imperial Dali Temple is just a decoration?"

Shi Nuanyu argued confidently that the entire royal family was her backer, so she had nothing to fear from these stubborn bald men.

Moreover, in the original book, after Fusheng suffered this punishment, he lay in Fuze Temple for half a month and then disappeared. Even Qinghe could not find his whereabouts.

When we met again, he was covered in scars, like a devil who had rolled around in hell.

No one knows what he went through during this period.

She couldn't let such a caring doctor become like that. He should be practicing medicine and pursuing his ideals.

"Du Ri became the princess's male attendant and entered the filthy world of the world. The abbot has already allowed him to return to secular life. Fuze Temple is a place of pure retreat and cannot tolerate such filth."

Guangde, who was standing by, couldn't hold back, and every word he said was filled with disdain and disgust for the mundane life.

Shi Nuanyu locked her cold gaze on him, "You mean I'm a filthy, foul creature, unfit to enter your Fuze Temple."

Master Wangnian scolded, "Guangde is so presumptuous. Don't be disrespectful to His Highness."

Guangde stopped talking in dissatisfaction and glanced angrily at Fusheng who was kneeling on the ground.

It turns out that he is Guangde. In the book, it was he who took care of Fusheng when he was injured and stayed in Fuze Temple to recuperate. Why did he make Fusheng disappear after being taken care of?

Sensing the hatred in his eyes, Shi Nuanyu understood.

"Du Ri, what do you think?"

The abbot, who had been silent for a long time, spoke slowly, with no sadness or surprise on his old face, as if this was just a very simple question.

Shi Nuanyu looked at him worriedly. According to Fusheng's stubborn nature, he would probably refuse her help.

Fusheng bowed respectfully, "Master, please allow me to have a few words with Your Highness."

The abbot closed his eyes and agreed to this. Fusheng did not speak to Nuanyu at the same time, but walked to Guangde and looked at him calmly.

"You shouldn't slander His Highness."

Guangde felt a chill down his spine as he was stared at. He swallowed hard and retorted.

"What did I say wrong? Falling into the mortal world is unclean. Junior brother, you are stained with such filth, so you are not qualified to preside over the blessing ceremony."

A hint of coldness flashed in Fusheng's eyes, and he walked to the place where he was just now and knelt down.

"Article 37 of the Fukuzawa Temple Discipline Hall Code states that anyone who slanders others will be severely punished with thirty strokes of the cane; Article 89 states that anyone who disrespects the imperial family will be expelled from Fukuzawa Temple.
Article 121: Those who harbor jealousy or evil thoughts will be expelled from the discipleship. Brother Guangde has broken three precepts. I beg the abbot and the other uncles to punish him severely.

Everyone present looked at each other in confusion, wondering why Senior Brother Guangde was involved when they were trying to solve the problem of crossing the river.

"You are no longer a member of Fuze Temple and have no right to interfere in the temple's internal affairs."

There was a warning in Wangnian's tone, and he looked at Fusheng with an unfriendly look.

Fusheng ignored his warning. "I haven't received the document of returning to secular life yet, so I'm still a disciple of Fuze Temple," he lowered his voice. "Uncle Master, are you trying to protect Senior Brother Guangde?"

Shi Nuanyu smiled sarcastically, "I have finally understood. Guangde should be your disciple, Master. You are trying to protect him from insulting me openly and covertly."

She tapped her head with her finger, thinking, "I'd like to know what the crime is for insulting the royal family?"

All crows are black. It turns out that people are all chasing power and profit, even compassionate monks are the same.

War, wherever there are people, there will be war.
