Why didn't Central Divinity Wong Chung Yeung punish Chow Bak Tung more harshly?
After Chow Bak Tung had his affair with Ying Goo in Dali, his martial senior Central Divinity Wong Chung Yeung let him off the hook pretty easily. Chow screwed up pretty badly - not just having an affair with a married woman, but a *princess* of Dali and the wife of a wulin Great. That was probably death penalty stuff according to the rules of the time.
Emperor Deun Chi Hing forgave Chow Bak Tung, but I'm surprised that Wong Chung Yeung also went easy on him. Chow's act disgraced Wong and the Cheun Jen Sect. Even if Wong decided to be merciful and spare Chow's life, he would *at least* need to kick Chow out of the Cheun Jen Sect, wouldn't he? Not only did Wong Chung Yeung not do that, but he allowed Chow Bak Tung to keep his senior position in the Cheun Jen Sect (second in rank only Wong Chung Yeung himself) and even gave Chow responsibility for the 9 Yum Jen Ging (stupid idea, if you ask me).
