Chapter 203 Sent to Ciyue Temple
Ning Sangsang said righteously, "Your Majesty, the Third Princess is really outrageous. She forcibly abducted men from the people and brought them into her mansion regardless of their wishes. She forced those men to separate from their families and broke their families apart.
After I learned about this, I went to the Third Princess's residence to ask for the Imperial Sword to ask the Third Princess to release those men. However, the Third Princess said that the Imperial Sword was a broken sword.
When I heard this, I was immediately angry. The imperial sword represents your authority. The third princess is so contemptuous of it. Isn't this a slap in your face? I really want to protect the emperor, so I had a conflict with the third princess.
The third princess showed no remorse and even used her status to pressure me, saying that you loved her the most and that even if she made mistakes, Your Majesty would not do anything to her.
Your Majesty, you can't let the Third Princess be so lawless, or she might cause a disaster in the future."
Chu Yuzhu immediately retorted, "Father, Ning Sangsang is talking nonsense. How could my daughter forcibly seize men? Those men all came back with my daughter voluntarily. Father, Ning Sangsang trespassed into my mansion and beat me. Father, you must not let her go."
Ning Sangsang glanced at her and said, "Third Princess, please don't lie with your eyes open. If you lie with your eyes open, you will be struck by lightning. There was a person in my village who lied with his eyes open, and he was struck by lightning and turned into charcoal. It was so tragic."
Chu Yuzhu was frightened by her words, and then she became angry and said: "Even if this princess robbed them into the princess's mansion, so what? Being able to enter my princess's mansion is a blessing they have cultivated for eight lifetimes. They..."
"That's enough!" Emperor Mingqing interrupted her harshly, "As a princess, you should be a role model for the people, but you did such a ridiculous thing. I am very disappointed in you. From today on, you will reflect on your mistakes behind closed doors in the Princess's Mansion. Without my order, you are not allowed to step out of the Princess's Mansion. Give each of the men you forcibly took into the Princess's Mansion 100 taels of silver and let them go home."
Chu Yuzhu was so angry that her face turned black. She said angrily, "Father, you can't believe Ning Sangsang's words. Ning Sangsang is talking nonsense. My daughter..."
Before she could finish, she was interrupted by a loud "bang" on the table, followed by her father's stern voice, "You dare to quibble! If you dare to say one more word, I will send you to Ciyue Temple!" Emperor Ming Qing's eyes were wide with anger.
Chu Yuzhu was so frightened that she shuddered, tears welling up in her eyes, but she didn't dare say a word. She just stared at Ning Sangsang, hating her to death in her heart.
Ning Sangsang saw Chu Yuzhu's appearance and felt that Chu Yuzhu needed to go to the temple to calm down, so she said in her heart:
[The Third Princess has a savage and willful personality. Let her reflect on herself in the Princess Mansion. The Third Princess' personality will not change. When she comes out, she will still bully others. The Third Princess must go to Ciyue Temple to practice meditation and calm her mind.]
When Emperor Ming Qing heard Ning Sangsang's thoughts, he narrowed his eyes slightly and thought to himself that what Ning Sangsang said made sense. His daughter had become willful and capricious because of his pampering. She really needed to go to Ciyue Temple to calm down.
When Chu Yuzhu heard Ning Sangsang's inner voice, she became so angry that her face turned blue and she angrily scolded, "Ning Sangsang, you bad girl..."
"Enough!" Emperor Mingqing interrupted her harshly and said in a deep voice: "You need to calm down. Come, send the third princess to Ciyue Temple. Without my order, she is not allowed to step out of Ciyue Temple."
Chu Yuzhu's face changed drastically when she heard this, and she shouted, "Father, I don't want to go to that shabby place, Ciyue Temple."
Ciyue Temple is a place for women to practice meditation. The nuns there are all serious and rigid, so she doesn't want to go there.
Emperor Mingqing was unmoved and said, "I have made up my mind. No matter what you say, you must give me this Ciyue Temple."
Seeing that she could not persuade Emperor Mingqing, Chu Yuzhu looked at Ning Sangsang angrily and said angrily: "Ning Sangsang, you stinky girl, this princess will not let you go."
Ning Sangsang complained to Emperor Mingqing upon hearing this: "Your Majesty, the Third Princess said she would not let me go. I am so scared."
Emperor Ming Qing twitched the corner of his lips. This girl is really good at pretending. She is obviously very bold, but she still says she is afraid.
When Chu Yuzhu saw Ning Sangsang complaining to her father, she angrily yelled, "Ning Sangsang, stop pretending to be pitiful in front of my father, you..."
"Shut up!" Emperor Ming Qing interrupted her in a deep voice. Chu Yuzhu's eyes turned red with grievance, but she didn't dare to say anything. She swore in her heart: When she comes out of Ciyue Temple, she will definitely teach Ning Sangsang a lesson!
Emperor Mingqing looked at Chu Yuzhu with a cold face and said seriously: "Yuzhu, go to Ciyue Temple and calm down your temper. I will not let you out until your temper changes."
Chu Yuzhu bit her lip and replied unwillingly, "My daughter knows." But her eyes were glaring at Ning Sangsang fiercely, as if she wanted to poke a few holes in Ning Sangsang with her eyes.
"Your Majesty, the Third Princess glared at me. If looks could kill, I would have been killed by the Third Princess." Ning Sangsang complained to Emperor Mingqing.
Chu Yuzhu was so angry that she was speechless.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Ming Qing couldn't help but smile slightly. Ning Sangsang was smart and knew how to gain some "sympathy points" for herself at the right time. He coughed lightly and said to Ling Ning Sangsang, "Ning girl, please go down first. I want to talk to Yuzhu alone."
Ning Sangsang nodded in agreement when she heard this and tactfully left.
After Ning Sangsang left, Emperor Mingqing's eyes fell on Chu Yuzhu, and his tone softened a little, "Yuzhu, go to Ciyue Temple and listen to the nun's words. Father hopes that you can change your temper."
"Father, I know I was wrong. Please don't send me to Ciyue Nunnery. I don't want to go there." Chu Yuzhu looked at Emperor Mingqing with a pitiful look.
Emperor Mingqing looked at Chu Yuzhu's pitiful appearance and his heart softened slightly, but soon hardened again.
"No, this time you must go to Ciyue Temple and reflect on yourself. If you continue to be so willful, you will suffer in the future."
Seeing that her father was unmoved, Chu Yuzhu was so angry that she stopped talking.
"Just go to Ciyue Temple with peace of mind. When your temper improves, your father will send someone to bring you back."
Chu Yuzhu nodded unhappily, thinking that she must make Ning Sangsang look bad when she came out of Ciyue Temple.
"Hmm."
After cleaning up Chu Yuzhu, she was in a good mood and walked out of the palace with brisk steps. Ning Sangsang sneezed. She stopped, rubbed her nose, and muttered, "It must be that stinky girl Chu Yuzhu scolding me again!"
After saying that, she continued to walk out of the palace with brisk steps. After leaving the palace, Ning Sangsang went to the hostage house to find Yan Xuanjing.
