And, it was intentional!
[No, we can't let the bad abbot get away!]
Mingxin looked over with her Qingling eyes and saw the abbot packing up his gifts and money to prepare to escape.
She moved her little hand, and a ban was placed on Lingyin Temple.
No one can leave until the yamen people come the next day!
Nothing happened last night, I had a very good rest.
Early the next morning, Mr. Zhang, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, who was seen in Mingxin's dream, came with a group of officials.
After entering Lingyin Temple, go straight to the abbot's courtyard!
They captured the abbot directly and dug out dozens of corpses from under an old tree.
The whole audience was in an uproar!
The prefect was shocked and cursed him as a beast. He ordered the officials to put iron chains and shackles on him and escort him back to Beijing.
An Li and a few others watched the whole process from the side, and they felt bad looking at the corpse.
After having breakfast at the temple, they got on the carriage and went back.
On the way, they met Ming Wenqing who was taking An Li back home.
[Daddy!]
[I was really good last night, I got rid of a big evil spirit.]
Mingxin threw herself into her father's arms, her little face full of pride.
Ming Wenqing and An Li smiled at each other and returned to Yongjing City.
As soon as I entered the city, I heard the deafening joyous sounds of "wooooo wow wow".
There were firecrackers going off all the way!
It seems like someone's children are getting married.
"Fei Yu, do you know whose wedding is happening? Half the city knows about it." Ming Wenqing asked as he lifted the carriage curtain.
If he is a minister from a certain family, he can just go and have a drink at the wedding.
Feiyu drove the carriage and said, "Master, it is the Minister of the Honglu Temple, Mr. Cui, who is marrying his childhood sweetheart today."
What?
Ming Wenqing scratched his ears. Did he hear it right?
The Minister of the Ministry of Rites is already 68 years old this year. His wife passed away only a year ago, and he married another woman?
He looked at his wife, but An Li felt sad for his wife who had passed away and had been with him until old age.
What’s more, he married his childhood sweetheart!
So high-profile!
It is disrespectful to the deceased wife and disregard for the children.
Seeing that his wife looked unhappy, Ming Wenqing winked and told Feiyu to hurry back home.
"Fei Yu, go and take a look at Cui's house." An Li said.
[Huh, it really is!]
[No man is trustworthy, only men who have erected monuments are honest!]
Mingxin pouted and snorted.
After hearing his daughter's thoughts, Ming Wenqing broke out in a cold sweat.
He is not that kind of person. Where did his daughter learn all this?
[Men are unreliable. I don’t want to be a stinky man when I grow up!]
[I want a sweet and soft little sister! ]
Mingxin thought it through in her little head.
Now, the couple broke out in cold sweat!
When we arrived at Cui's house, the sound of joy was deafening, and a lot of wedding candies and silver coins were scattered at the door.
The entrance was bustling with activity, as many wives of ministers from the capital had come.
However, the ministers all congratulated, while most of the ladies frowned slightly.
As women themselves, An Li knew what they were thinking.
[Scumbag!]
[He failed two women at the same time.]
Mingxin didn't even want to look at it, so she yawned and fell asleep.
The couple did not go in. They looked at the door and then returned home.
After this happy event, people in the capital sighed.
Cui Yixin was so stimulated that he joined the army directly, and Zhou Yuguang followed closely behind him.
The abbot of Lingyin Temple was reported to Emperor Yongwu by the prefect and was directly sentenced to death and executed in the autumn.
Soon, the dean of Shuisheng College came to Dayong Kingdom!
Emperor Yongwu welcomed the person into the palace with a ceremony second only to that for the spirit Xiyuan.
After discussion, the dean of Shuisheng College pushed the right of disposal back to Emperor Yongwu on the grounds that Ming Yuanbo was from the Great Yong Kingdom.
Although Shuisheng Academy was also at fault, they did not want to lose face!
In order to set an example for students all over the country, Emperor Yongwu issued an imperial decree to beat the students with a stick at Ximen Caishi Street at 3:30 p.m. the next day.
This news made Li Yujiao pale and Ming Yuanbo tremble like a sieve.
"Mother, woof woof woof please save me, woof woof..."
Ming Yuanbo cried bitterly and regretted it deeply.
He is not as healthy as he used to be. A beating with a stick could kill him!
Li Yujiao hugged him and cried bitterly, "My son, the imperial decree has been issued, and there is nothing I can do..."
The next day, the guards took Ming Yuanbo to Ximen Caishi Street, waiting to be beaten with a stick.
When the time came, Emperor Yongwu personally gave the order, and Caishi Street was surrounded by people.
Ming Yuanbo was tied to a wooden stool with a piece of cloth stuffed in his mouth, unable to move.
The wooden board was raised high, but before it hit him, Ming Yuanbo's eyes were filled with fear. He let out a "wu" sound, rolled his eyes, and fainted.
The heavy board landed on his butt, causing it to swell instantly.
Again and again, his buttocks were beaten to pieces and blood flowed to the ground.
In the middle, Ming Yuanbo was awakened once by severe pain, but was knocked unconscious again.
After sixty strokes of the cane, his skin was torn and his flesh was exposed. He was unconscious and looked as if he was dead.
The common people and scholars who came to watch the fun all cheered!
"Good! This is how we should fight! Give everyone else a fair fight."
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"You deserved to be beaten! Good fight!"
…
After Caishi Street became quiet.
"I hope all students will not deceive others or themselves, but keep their feet on the ground and only then can they find a way forward."
The dean of Water Saint College concluded his sermon.
All the scholars in the audience were very excited. This was the dean of Shuisheng College. Being favored by him meant that he had a bright future.
After the guards evacuated the crowd, only Ming Yuanbo was left, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
"Yuanbo, wake up!"
