Medical Princess
chapter-472

As soon as these words were spread out, it immediately caused a great disturbance, and everyone began to discuss it.

The place for sermon in Yuhui Nunnery was not far away, and it did not take a long time to get there. Opening the door of the main hall, one could see that it was in chaos and the rush cushions were thrown everywhere. Some were stacked together, and some were placed in a mess. What’s worse, one was standing vertically, with some scraps of paper thrown in it.

The entire scene had nothing to do with the so-called solemn buddha-hall at all. Moreover, it was the master of Yuhui Nunnery who had been preaching here before.

Puyu Nun, who had always been well mannered, couldn’t help getting angry at this moment and she lifted her eyes to look at Huiqing.

When seeing this scene, Huiqing was immediately overjoyed and pointed at Shao Wanru and said loudly, “Puyu Nun, look, she made a mess here. How dare she have the face to have lunch secretly?”

She was still worried that someone else in the nunnery had already cleaned this up. Without evidence, she would not dare to talk nonsense. Now she wasn’t afraid, because the evidence was still here. Even though she had gone a little bit far, this Fifth Miss had also gone too far.

“How could this be?”

“No, it was tidy when we left with Miss!” Qu Le and Yujie couldn’t believe it, and took a deep breath with horror on their faces.

Yujie seemed to think of something. She suddenly reached out to point at Huiqing and said angrily, “Huiqing Nun, even if you want to frame our Miss, you should not throw the rush cushions into such a mess. They were put in a neat way. Don’t you know that this is disrespectful to Buddha? If you do not respect Buddha, why you still practice Buddhism and recite scriptures!”

“Huiqing Nun, when all the nuns left, this place was still fine and clean, even after all the nuns listened to the sutra. Our Miss just tidied up here a little and put the rush cushions aside. How could you make so much chaos here in such a short time? What are you up to? What can you benefit if our Miss is driven down the mountain?”

Qu Le was so angry that her face turned pale. She reached out her hand to pull Huiqing.

“What nonsense are you all spouting? This is you…” Huiqing paused for a moment before realizing that they were making false countercharges, so she loudly defended herself in a hurry.

“Yes, we tidy up this. Look, I carelessly got bumped and it is a little broken here.” Yujie pointed at the back of her hand, where she accidentally had got bumped before, and said loudly without blushing.

“We and Miss cleaned it up. At that time, a nun outside saw us. If you don’t believe us, you can ask who was standing outside the nunnery at that time, whether we did chores before leaving and whether she heard the sound that we were cleaning up in the hall.” Qu Le became more and more confident.

“It could not be so chaotic in the buddha-hall, but now it is. There must be someone who wants to frame this Miss!” Zhang Qilan stood on Shao Wanru’s side. Looking at the hall in mess, she shook her head and sighed. “Well, it is the hall for Buddhism practice… But it is really…”

Although she did not finish her words, Master Puyu and several nuns who followed her all blushed.

Even if she had not tidied up the hall, it could not be so messy in this hall. Now this chaotic scene became a piece of evidence to testify against this was Fifth Miss Shao. Whoever saw this would believe that this seemed to be a deliberate plot by someone.

“Please uphold justice, Puyu Nun.” Shao Wanru peacefully looked at Puyu Nun with her watery eyes. Her beautiful eyes were so deep that people couldn’t resist them.

“Fifth Miss, don’t make scurrilous attacks!” said Huiqing, scolding her when seeing that she was in trouble.

“Huiqing Nun, this is a buddha-hall, where all the deities and Buddhas will see. Evil will be requited with evil, and good will be rewarded with kindness,” Shao Wanru said coldly. She looked at Huiqing with her cold eyes, which made Huiqing tremble involuntarily. “No matter what kind of reason you have to drive me away to the downhill, it is not up to you to decide whether I should leave! Do you really think I am so easy to bully? There is no perfect trap in this world, nor is there an airtight wall!”

These words with certain meanings immediately caused the onlookers to whisper.

Hearing all kinds of criticism and looking at the grim expression on Puyu Nun’s face, Huiqing felt extremely regretful. If she had known that Fifth Miss Shao was not to be trifled with, she would have made more plans at that time, and the current situation wouldn’t have happened.

At that time, when she had seen the mess in front of her, she had only thought that she had something on Fifth Miss Shao, so she could do whatever she wanted to torment her. Now it turned out that this was not the thing to prove that Fifth Miss Shao had not tidied up, but the evidence that she had deliberately messed up to frame against Fifth Miss Shao.

She lifted a rock only to drop it on her own feet!

“Huiqing, apologize to Fifth Miss!” Puyu Nun said coldly.

“Puyu Nun, this matter really has nothing to do with me. I saw that it was in a mess here and thought it must be done on purpose by Fifth Miss and her servants!” Huiqing unwillingly defended herself in a loud voice.

“Why would we do that? Is it convenient for you to drive us away to the downhill?” Shao Wanru chuckled, with an elegant and cold smile on her face.

“I can’t believe the nun in the nunnery can have such evil countenance. She should not practice Buddhism!” Zhang Qilan sneered.

“You do not give her food to eat, and you ask her to do the heaviest and dirtiest work. No Miss can quietly practice Buddhism here. Or does this nun have a grudge against this Miss?” Zhang Lanjue looked at Huiqing from head to toe and said loudly.

He stretched out to pull a servant by his side and a servant girl behind his sister, asking them to say about the conversation between Huiqing and Shao Wanru in the main hall before.

They vividly retraced the scene at the time.

After they finished, Huiqing’s face had turned livid, green, and then white.

She did not know how she had said those words when she had been angry just now. Now in front of so many people, she realized that her words were full of loopholes when they were repeated.

“Fifth Miss Shao, I’m so sorry. I got angry because I saw the chaos here and then said something out of control!”

She could not help but grit her teeth as she apologized to Shao Wanru.

“Nun, didn’t you make the mess? Hasn’t you done so many things like this during this period of time?” Shao Wanru’s face revealed a trace of coldness.

“Fifth Miss Shao, Yuhui Nunnery will punish Huiqing…” Puyu Nun coughed in a low voice and said.

Shao Wanru looked at Puyu Nun. Her eyes were like shimmering water, but there was a hint of coldness. “Puyu Nun, I know that this nunnery has promised my grandmother that I can observe mourning and practice Buddhism here for three years and she has paid enough sesame oil money and even rebuilt the courtyard in your nunnery. Why can’t you tolerate me? You scold me and hit me, and from time to time starve me. When I want to defend myself, you ask me to get out of the mountain as soon as I can. Is this the way that Yuhui Nunnery treats girls who want to practice Buddhism quietly?” said Shao Wanru.

This nunnery did nothing kind after receiving the money, and asked the Miss who had paid the money to do all kinds of chores. This Miss with such a small figure couldn’t have enough to eat. No wonder she was so thin.

It were not just the Zhang siblings who were filled with righteous indignation. Many pilgrims couldn’t bear this any longer and loudly condemned Yuhui Nunnery’s way of doing things, which made Puyu Nun sweat a lot on her forehead.

This matter had gotten out of hand and she couldn’t handle it.

A nun squeezed her way into the crowd and bowed respectfully to Shao Wanru. “Fifth Miss, the master of our nunnery said that she would find out how Huiqing deliberately framed you. She also promised that such things would never happen again. Fifth Miss just be relieved to practice and have no need to worry about the matters in the nunnery. Because Huiqing did not respect Buddha and told nonsense, she is punished for cleaning up the halls of Buddha every day for a year!”

This punishment was not a small one!

There were many halls in Yuhui Nunnery, and it would take at least one day to sweep through them once. That was to say, Huiqing would sweep over the floor every day for the next year. She used to be a supervisor of one of the halls, and all she had to do was follow her master to chant scriptures and listen to the sutra. Now, she was reduced to the lowest-level nun, who could only sweep over the floor, so her face changed dramatically.

She wanted to argue, but she saw that Puyu Nun coldly stared at her, so she had to gasp and lower her head. Her face was full of anger, but she did not dare to say anything.

“Will people in Yuhui Nunnery break their words? When we leave, will you bully this Miss again?” Zhang Lanjue felt that he had seen too many such shameless people. Although he had never thought that there were scums in Buddhism, he met some now. So it was understandable for him to think more about it and speak it out.

He was a playboy, so he always said and did whatever he wanted to. He wouldn’t feel that it was a slap in their faces to say these words in front of these nuns.

Not only Puyu Nun but also all the nuns felt ashamed.

“Childe Zhang, don’t worry. Such things won’t happen again. Fifth Miss has an extraordinary identity, so she is not someone that we can bully.”

Puyu Nun had to brace herself to explain.

“Her previous identity was not simple, but you still bullied her, didn’t you? This must be Fifth Miss Shao from Duke Xing’s Mansion, right? Yuhui Nunnery is amazing. You even dare to bully the one related to Rui’an Great Elder Princess and Duke Xing’s Mansion!” Zhang Qilan was smart. Thinking of Shao Wanru’s previous words and some rumors and speculations that she had heard, she immediately understood Shao Wanru’s identity and sneered.

Hearing his words, all the pilgrims were shocked. They all stunned at Shao Wanru, who was standing in front of them.

The news that Duke Xing’s Mansion had recognized their Miss of lineal descent had been spread all over the capital city these days, and many people had known about it. They had also heard that this Fifth Miss Shao was going to observe mourning for her parents in the nunnery. It had only been a few days, but she had already been bullied like this? This was Rui’an Great Elder Princess’ granddaughter and Miss of lineal descent of Duke Xing’s Mansion. If it were anyone else, would they have been bullied to death?

However, other smart people might think of another possibility. It was heard that everyone in Duke Xing’s Mansion didn’t like Fifth Miss Shao. The well-known First Miss Shao used to live in Yuhui Nunnery and she was familiar with the nuns here. Was it possible that First Miss Shao wanted to use another person’s hand to bully Fifth Miss Shao? Otherwise, how could a nun in the nunnery have the guts to do such a thing?

“It’s because our nunnery lacks control. Such a thing won’t happen in the future. Fifth Miss, please forgive our nunnery for our oversight!” Puyu Nun said in a low gesture. She was a reception nun of Yuhui Nunnery and was always good at talking, so she also knew what to do at this time.

“Nun, you are too polite. It has nothing to do with you. Please help me investigate Huiqing Nun. Why does she want to drive me away to the downhill? What can this benefit her?”

Shao Wanru did not blindly try to find out Yuhui Nunnery’s fault, but calmly put the blame on Huiqing. Who would gain the greatest benefit?

This was the key point!
