Chapter 203 All Thoughts Are Empty
Jingchi didn't feel sorry for Song Qingxuan at all. She asked two nuns to hold her down and shave her hair in front of the empress dowager.
Song Qingxuan was still struggling: "Empress Dowager, I beg to keep my hair uncut and get married."
Jing Chi shaved Song Qingxuan's hair in front of the Queen Mother, which was not giving the Queen Mother face. The Queen Mother was obviously unhappy. When she heard Song Qingxuan's request, she looked at Jing Chi and said, "Jing Chi, why don't you let Concubine Song keep her hair uncut?"
Jing Chi just replied indifferently: "Empress Dowager, you are really forgetful. Didn't you just say that Song Qingxuan would no longer be a noble lady in the palace? How come she is a noble lady again now? Could it be that the Queen Dowager wants to take back what she said? Isn't this too much of a joke?"
The Queen Mother was choked by Jing Chi: "Of course, that's not what I meant."
"Empress Dowager, only those who voluntarily ask to become nuns can keep their hair untied. Song Qingxuan is a criminal now. What qualifications does she have to ask to keep her hair untied to become a nun? Or does the Empress Dowager think that Song Qingxuan is not guilty of having an affair with a man outside her and defiling the nunnery? Then can all concubines in the harem do the same in the future?"
The Queen Mother was somewhat annoyed by what Jingchi said: "Jingchi, you are just a nun in the temple, what qualifications do you have to question me?"
"Empress Dowager, if this happened somewhere else, even if you asked me to intervene, I would not say a word. Who would want to be involved in such a dirty thing? On the contrary, Empress Dowager, you repeatedly excuse the criminals. What do you mean?
Do you think that Song Qingxuan is not wrong to have an affair with a man outside her family, and that the emperor is wrong? If the news gets out today, how will the people of Dayu view the emperor in the future? Where will the emperor's dignity be?"
Jingchi's words were righteous and stern, and the Queen Mother had no way to refute them. She could only watch Song Qingxuan shave her head in front of her.
"Song Qingxuan, I will give you the name Kongnian today. I hope you will not have any inappropriate thoughts in the future. All your thoughts are empty. Only if you pray to Buddha sincerely, Buddha can save you."
Song Qingxuan, who had been given the name Kongnian, knew that there was no room for maneuver at this point, and even the Queen Mother could not save her.
"Take her away. From now on, follow me and guard the side hall." Jing Chi instructed, and the two nuns took Song Qingxuan away.
"Master Jingchi is so cruel." How could the Queen Mother not see Jingchi's intentions? But she didn't understand why Jingchi would rather offend herself and deal with Song Qingxuan?
Jingchi turned around and looked at the Queen Mother.
This was the first time she looked the Queen Mother in the eye.
"Empress Dowager, God is watching what people do. Anyone who does evil will eventually be punished by God."
The Queen Mother frowned: "Jingchi, don't be too nervous."
"As long as the Queen Mother has done the right thing, what's the harm in hearing these words?"
The Queen Mother suddenly asked, "Have I ever met you before?"
Just as Jingchi was about to answer, the Queen Mother said, "Monks do not tell lies. Master Jingchi should understand this principle, right?"
