The Duke of the State directly knelt down and shouted, long live the emperor, long live, long live, long live.
Liu Zhimo and the others were startled, then came back to their senses, knelt down and kowtowed to the emperor.
All the people present except Mr. Luo did not kneel down, although he did not kneel, but he also stood up, which is regarded as respect for the emperor.
The emperor raised his hand slightly, and calmed down lightly.
After seeing everyone standing up, the emperor turned his eyes to Duke Guo again, staring at him with a half-smile, "Master Guo, do you want to explain what happened just now to me? Hmm?" It's getting more and more arrogant. If he doesn't punish them, they might fall on his head one day.
Today, he will definitely take the Duke's mansion to death.
Grandpa Guo's heart skipped a beat, knowing that today was a very bad day.
No matter what he thought, he never thought that the emperor would come to the scene secretly!
"Back to the emperor, the old minister doesn't know what to explain to the emperor?"
The emperor snorted, walked directly to the main seat and sat down, picked up the gavel and slapped it hard, scaring the Duke to kneel on the ground with a bang.
When Liu Zhimo and others saw it, they also knelt down quickly.
It was only at this time that Li Qingling deeply understood that sentence, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger.
If the emperor is unhappy alone, he has to be careful with his head.
This is also the first time for her to face the majesty of the emperor.
She had to admit that, as the emperor, not everyone could face the majesty of him.
He lowered his face a little, and the aura of his body was so overwhelming that they couldn't breathe.
"Except for the Duke, everyone else stood up."
Li Qingling and the others thanked the emperor again before standing up in fear. They stood there with their heads down, not daring to look casually.
The Duke felt embarrassed for a while, but he didn't dare to say anything.
The emperor looked at the Duke who was kneeling on the ground silently, and he slapped the gavel again, "Master Guo, are you sure you really have nothing to say? Huh?" He gave him another chance , if he really refuses to repent, then don't blame him.
"Back to the emperor, the old minister really has nothing to say." The Duke replied respectfully, he absolutely must not admit what he just did, otherwise, the emperor would have to blame him directly.
In fact, he was also gambling. The emperor didn't come so early, so he didn't see all his actions just now.
It's just that the Duke of the country didn't expect that the emperor had read it from beginning to end.
"Grandpa, you're good, you're really good." The emperor stopped clapping the gavel now, clapped his palms directly, and smiled angrily, "Since you have nothing to say, how about you?" Don't let me tell you what happened just now one by one, so as to help you remember."
Does this old guy really think that he can do whatever he wants if he has a daughter who becomes a queen
Do you really think that with a little effort when he ascended the throne, you can ignore him as the emperor
Hearing this, a layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on the Duke's forehead, he lost the bet, the emperor heard everything and saw everything.
This made him not dare to speak hard anymore, and directly shouted that the old minister should die, and the emperor forgives his sins.
How did he answer when he came to beg him to suffer now, when he was asked just now
Did he think it was a little too late to say that
"Master, what crime do you want me to forgive you for? Don't you think you are innocent?"
The Duke's head almost fell to the ground, "Old minister... this old minister was fascinated by ghosts for a while, please forgive me this time, and I will never dare again." How could he have such a mentality just now? Do you think you can fool the emperor? Really... really hit the ghost.
The emperor didn't talk to the Duke, and asked him directly, since he was guilty, how should he be punished
The queen still has to give her face. The punishment cannot be too severe, but it cannot be too light.
Hearing the emperor's words, the sweat on the Duke's forehead dripped onto the ground.
He didn't bother to wipe it, and said directly that he would personally apologize to Li Qingling and ask her to forgive the Duke's Mansion.
Obviously the emperor was not satisfied with his answer, so he continued to question him, what else? Is that all right
Just a simple apology, does he want to take it as his own punishment
Grandpa Guo swallowed hard, and then reached out to wipe the cold sweat that flowed into his eyes, "This... Your Majesty, just listen to me." If he was asked to say it himself, then he would just want to apologize , I didn't think about anything else.
But when he said this, the emperor was not satisfied, so what should he say and how should he do it
"In order to show my sincerity, of course it is up to the Duke himself to say it."
"..." The Duke wondered if the emperor was deliberately embarrassing him? "The old minister's mind is not bright, and he can't think of anything else for a while."
The emperor stared fixedly at the Duke of Guo, and only when he was terrified by seeing the Duke of Guo, he said quietly, "Since the Duke of Guo's mind is not bright, why not abdicate and let your eldest son inherit?"
To hit a snake, you need to hit seven inches. The emperor is well aware of this truth.
No, as soon as he said this, Grandpa Guo froze.
Did he dig a hole by himself and jump down by himself
Grandpa Guo regretted so much that he wished he could slap himself to wake himself up.
"Old minister... The eldest son of the old minister is not capable enough, and he has to continue to exercise. At that time, the old minister will automatically abdicate and let him inherit it."
If he abdicates and lets his eldest son succeed him, what will happen to the Duke's Mansion
He had to discipline his elder son well, otherwise, he was really worried about handing over the Duke's Mansion to him.
In fact, in his heart, he wanted his third son to take over the Duke's Mansion. That kid was like him, he did things without sloppiness, he would act when it was time to act, and he would never be soft.
Unlike the eldest son, who is soft-tempered and soft-eared, he has to change his mind after being persuaded a few times.
How can such a person take over the Duke's Mansion
It's just that the ancestors stipulated that the inheritance should not be passed on to the concubines, and the elders should not be passed on to the younger ones.
Otherwise, he would have pushed his third son up a long time ago, so he would have to wait until now, he is struggling to support the Duke's Mansion.
The emperor also knew about the situation of the Duke's Mansion, so he twitched his lips, "How does the Lord of the Kingdom want to punish himself?" He put the right of choice in the hands of the Duke's Mansion, and he couldn't refuse the punishment he said. suffer.
The Duke gritted his teeth and said that he bought the shop that Li Qingling wanted to buy, gave it to Li Qingling, and let the fifth lady receive ten boards.
After waiting for a while, before the emperor nodded, the Duke took a breath and continued to say that he would give out porridge at the gate of the city for a month.
When the emperor heard this, there was a little smile on his face. He looked at Li Qingling, "Madam Liu, do you agree with what the Duke said?"
Li Qingling was taken aback by the emperor's sudden question. She looked up at Mr. Luo, and seeing Mr. Luo nodded, she respectfully replied, agreeing.
After all, the Duke is the empress's biological father and the prince's grandfather, so you can't go too far, otherwise it will hurt the face of the empress and the prince.
But just this matter is enough for the Duke's Mansion to be talked about.
The emperor patted the gavel, "Okay, let's do it this way, come on, let's go to the punishment."
Fifth Madam opened her mouth to shout that the emperor has been wronged, but someone gagged her and pressed her to beat her.
It took a full ten boards before letting her go.
At this time, the fifth lady was in so much pain that she couldn't speak.
She has always been pampered and pampered, and has never been spanked by anyone. This time, she was spanked ten times without any moisture. The pain was so painful that she couldn't move.
The Duke of the State was afraid that she would cause trouble again, so he hurriedly sent someone to carry her back to the Duke's Mansion.
"Teacher, I haven't played chess with you for a long time. Today is just free, how about playing a few games?" After a pause, "Teacher's grandson and daughter-in-law come too!"
How could Mr. Luo not know the emperor's thoughts, but in front of so many people, it's hard for him to refuse him.
He stood up and patted his robe, turned his head and nodded to Liu Zhimo and Li Qingling, then walked out the door.
When the Duke saw it, he hurriedly said, "Mrs. Liu, where are you going to get the contract for this shop?"
"Xue Mansion, please take it to Xue Mansion, please, Mr. Guo, thank you."
Xue Mansion
"Is it the Xue residence of Imperial Physician Xue?"
"Yes…"
Hearing this, the Duke looked at Li Qingling with complicated eyes. He didn't expect that Li Qingling would not talk about his relationship with Mr. Luo, but also with Imperial Physician Xue.
He smiled and asked, what is the relationship between Li Qingling and Imperial Physician Xue
Li Qingling said frankly that Imperial Physician Xue was her grandfather.
grandfather
Imperial Physician Xue was never married at all, where did he get his granddaughter
Do you know who you are
The Duke still wanted to ask again, but when he saw Mr. Luo's half-smile look, he swallowed the words that came to his lips.
Forget it, he'll let someone investigate and find out, there's no need to ask again.
The emperor walked in front and glanced back at the light blue robe on Mr. Luo's body. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Teacher, I've known you for so long, and this is the first time I've seen you wearing a robe of another color." The teacher's robe is white, and there are no other colors. Seeing him wearing this robe today really surprised him.
Mr. Luo touched his robe with some satisfaction, raised his chin slightly and said, my granddaughter-in-law made it for me.
"Oh..." The emperor elongated the ending, and glanced at Li Qingling, and it was obvious that the female celebrity is not bad.
"Does it look good?"
"..."
The emperor doubted that the person in front of him was not his teacher. When did his teacher become so childish
"Not good-looking?" Mr. Luo frowned without hearing the emperor's answer.
"It's beautiful..." The emperor nodded quickly after hearing this, "This color is also very suitable for the teacher. It's really good for the teacher to wear robes of other colors occasionally."
The smile on Mr. Luo's mouth grew wider, he touched his robe again, and took bigger steps, revealing his shoes, "I think it goes well with the shoes made by my granddaughter-in-law too. "The thousand-layer shoes are comfortable, "I also have a set of royal blue ones at home, and I like them very much."
Hearing this, the corners of the emperor's mouth twitched constantly. Is this his teacher like a banished fairy? Yeah
