The whole family of villains criticized her wildly, but the princess treated her with medical treatm

Shu Yuezhi was rescued.

The green robes of monks and nuns were wet and outlined their slim figure.

"Thank you so much, madam, and thank you so much, my benefactor."

In order to avoid suspicion, Yan Yang turned away, took off his fur cloak, and put it on Cui Ming: "Mom, are you cold?"

"My feet are a little cold."

Mrs. Mingguo caught cold. After soaking her right foot in cold water, she almost lost consciousness.

Yan Yang hurriedly carried her into the spacious carriage, grabbed the hot towel himself, and wiped her face and hands.

Hand over spare clothes and warm soup.

The driver and the soldiers accompanying him were all smart people.

The boss of his family was unwilling to pay attention to the two young women whose reputation had been damaged by falling into the water, so they stepped forward, took off the cloaks from their armors, and threw them on Shu Yuezhi and Su Wanwan who were struggling to climb ashore.

"The poor nun Yuezhi... is the female nun who practices on behalf of Fayu Temple."

The mission failed. Shu Yuezhi squeezed the Buddhist bead bracelet tightly. When faced with the interrogation, she did not panic. Instead, she said in an aggrieved tone, "I was ordered by Master to perform rituals for a family, but I passed by the river. While we were there, the female donor suddenly rushed out and yelled at the poor nun, and pushed the poor nun into the river. The poor nun didn't know...how he offended the female benefactor."

As an assassin, sneaking into enemy territory to carry out assassination missions requires a new life experience.

The nun who practices on behalf of Fayu Temple is her new identity.

An elusive light flashed in Yan Yang's narrow eyes: "Oh?"

Shu Yuezhi's heart was hanging, and she clasped her hands and kowtowed: "If I hadn't been rescued by my benefactor, I would have drowned in the river. Amitabha - the old lady was compassionate, and the poor nun was extremely grateful. From then on, he would chant sutras for her in front of the Buddha every day. Pray for blessings.”

She would not seduce the Prince Regent, and there was no lust in her eyes, unlike Su Wanwan who looked at the Prince Regent with fiery and bold eyes.

After being introduced by Eunuch Wei, she was completely smitten from the moment she admired the emperor's face.

Yan Yang did not let down his guard because of her deliberate words to please his mother, and coldly uttered two words: "Du ultimatum."

Shu Yuezhi was confused: "To save...what to save."

Why couldn't she understand what the regent was saying.

Yan Yang's eyes were as sharp as a frosted sword: "Catch him!"

The soldiers immediately grabbed Shu Yuezhi's arms, cut them behind her back, and locked them with iron chains. The action was very rude.

Shu Yuezhi turned pale with fright and begged for mercy: "My benefactor, spare my life. I have done something wrong. Please tell me clearly!"

What exactly went wrong?

Everything was fine just now, why did he suddenly want to arrest her. The identity of this nun from Fayu Temple was perfect. Her assassination attempt also failed. The dagger had long been thrown into the bottom of the river and sank.

"You don't even know what an ultimatum is, yet you dare to lie and claim to be a monk or nun?"

Yan Yang said in a harsh tone, "Go to Zhao Prison and let Dongchang interrogate you."

Shu Yuezhi is about to cry. How can she survive if she falls into the hands of Dongchang Fanzi and is tortured again?

"No! The nun is just an innocent cultivator passing by..."

"There are too many monks and nuns who privately ordain and do not give birth. The Ministry of Rites of Yunhuang established the Office of the Order of Admittances to govern and restrain them. Only one thousand ordination certificates will be issued every three years after passing the assessment. Only monks and nuns who hold the certificates are recognized by the state. Only those who are monks can practice Buddhist deeds."

A clear female voice came from behind him.

Yan Yang turned around suddenly and saw his fiancée. His heart felt hot: "Why are you here?"

Mu Tingxue said worriedly: "I took the children and waited for you in the shop. After passing the Chenshi Pai, they hadn't arrived yet. I guessed that they might have encountered trouble, so I came to the other side of the river to greet you."

Yan Yang lowered his eyes and said, "Sorry for the delay."

The moment Shu Yuezhi, who was kneeling on the ground, saw Mu Tingxue, her whole body froze, and a chill spread from the top of her head to the soles of her feet.

She knew firsthand what the word "self-conscious" meant.

She is a fake.

The person in front of me is the real eldest princess.

The young emperor looked down upon her and thought her features were not similar to the noble and beautiful His Highness in front of him, so he refused to admit her into the harem and favor her...

"Simply put, the certificate is the identity card of a monk or nun."

Mu Tingxue's bright eyes flickered, staring at the fake nun strangely.

There are many people with similar faces in this world.

Could it be too much of a coincidence that such a young woman who looks a bit like herself falls into the water on the path of her fiancé and future mother-in-law? Mrs. Mingguo is kind-hearted and will not be able to help but rescue her.

"The master of the poor nun is Master Mingkong of Fayu Temple. The poor nun has not escaped into Buddhism for a long time. He is still practicing on behalf of others. He has not yet passed the ultimatum. In the future... he will definitely find a way to make up for it." Shu Yuezhi tried her best to make up for herself.

"It's not about making up for it, it's about passing the exam."

Mu Tingxue corrected her, "Every three years, I come to Yundu to take exams on scriptures, precepts and Buddhist scriptures. Only those who pass the exam can be called a monk. Receive the ultimatum issued by the Ministry of Rites."

Shu Yuezhi became even more embarrassed and bit her lip: "The poor nun will take the exam..."

hateful.

Why didn't Eunuch Wei help her handle the ultimatum directly? She is asked to take the exam in person in the future. She is a fake nun. How can she memorize the clear rules and obscure Buddhist scriptures?

"You always call yourself a poor nun."

Mu Tingxue raised her eyebrows, "Girl, you know, the "Yunhuang Code" stipulates that anyone who becomes a monk or nun without permission will be severely punished, sent to the border and sent to the army, and will never be pardoned!"

Legal provisions for controlling the number of monks were not only found in Yunhuang, but also in China in another time and space. During the Ming Dynasty, inspections were very strict. Especially during the reign of Emperor Jiajing, the number of ultimatums issued was cut in half.

There are too many monks, none of them farm the land, and as young laborers, all of them have nothing to do but abandon their families and children and do nothing to produce, which hinders the operation of the big machine of the country.

Her scumbag father, the late emperor, was a great believer in Buddhism. He built so many temples and built many temples. His actions followed suit, and many people became monks and nuns. In view of this, as soon as the regent killed the late emperor, he promulgated a decree that the number of monks and nuns should be fixed, fifty in large states, thirty in small states, twenty in cities, and five in counties.

The former ultimatum also had the advantage of being exempted from taxes and corvee. There are countless bald heads in the world who want it crazily. No taxes, no military service, just banging wooden fish and chanting sutras all day long, and no labor required. As long as you collect incense money and temple land rent, you can eat well and drink spicy food, and become a fat and white monk. It is simply bliss.

Nowadays, the Ministry of Household Affairs has implemented a new policy that requires land tax on the land belonging to noble families, monks and nuns in temples. This has abolished the tax exemption effect of the ultimatum.

"I'm not a nun, I'm a lay disciple accepted by Master Mingkong. Those with hair should not be sent to the army!"

Shu Yuezhi was completely panicked and cried.

Men are sent to the army to fight on the battlefield. What good consequences can women get if they are sent to the army? It can only be reduced to the soldiers' playthings for them to vent...
