After his inner voice was read, the little cannon fodder became the darling of the world

Chen Guiquan fell to the ground.

"What else can we do? The princess is a favorite of the emperor and is deeply loved by him.

The two of them have thoroughly offended the princess. The princess's punishment has already been handed down. Who dares to disobey?

If the emperor knew about this, he would be furious and who knows what would happen. "

Aunt Zhang knelt down in front of Chen Guiquan and said, "Master, please save us. We are women, and going out to beg will only lead to death..."

"How can we save him? Who dares to disobey the princess's words?

It is still unclear whether the Chen family and your mother's family will be implicated. How can I save you?

Go ahead, pack some of your own clothes and belongings. This doesn't count as aid. Leave at daybreak tomorrow morning.

When you get out, be smart, beg during the day, and find an inn to stay at night.

If you hold on for a while, maybe the princess's anger will subside and there will be room for recovery.

Remember, your fate with my Chen Mansion has ended, and we will have no further connection with each other."

The two aunts went back to their own courtyards crying.

The two discussed it all night, and early the next morning, they left Chen's house with large bags on their shoulders. This is a story for later.

We are afraid that the emperor will blame us and are trembling with fear.

On the other side, Nangong Jiu and Xiao Wang Xiaoxing returned to the mansion like victorious generals.

"Dad, Grandfather, Uncle, the mission that our Royal Grandfather gave us has been completed!"

Nangong Honglie held the little guy in his arms: "Thank you for your hard work! How was it? Tell us about your results?"

Nangong Jiu recounted in detail what happened at Li Mansion and Chen Mansion.

Nangong Yunsheng sneered, “Li Mingde should no longer brag about his concubines and how considerate they are.

And that Chen Guiquan, who always boasted that his concubine was proficient in everything from music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but in the end she was so unpresentable. "

Zhou Yuyao put her hands on her hips and cursed, "I've seen those two women on the street before, and they're just like Jiuer said, their eyes are almost growing out of their heads.

Humph, you dare to bully our Jiuer? Don’t you know who you are?

It’s better not to let me run into them. Otherwise, they will be in trouble.”

“Grandfather, uncle, when you go to the palace tomorrow, pay attention to see if Li Mingde and Chen Guiquan have told the ministers about what happened in their mansion.

If they dare to disobey, I will deal with them again."

Nangong Yunsheng readily agreed.

"Okay! This is a simple matter. We can find out by simply asking among the ministers."

Outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Li Mingde was talking about the concubine in his mansion with the ministers who were waiting to go to court.

After that, he concluded: "Alas, you never know until you try, and you'll be surprised when you try.

Now I understand that taking a concubine is really meaningless.

My dear colleagues, this is what happened to me, the Li family, yesterday. You should take it as a warning.

Otherwise, if your concubines push you out to take the blame someday, don’t blame me for not reminding you.”

The ministers who had recently participated in the concubine competition felt sad when they heard this.

He couldn't help secretly thinking about how to drive the concubine out of the house when he returned.

After Li Mingde finished speaking, Chen Guiquan quickly took over the conversation.

"I'm ashamed to say that the princess also came to our house yesterday.

The two concubines in the mansion were short-sighted and thought that the princess came to beg for money, so they framed the princess for stealing the jade buckle, which offended the princess so much that she was punished to live by begging.

Wait a minute, I have to kneel down and beg the emperor for forgiveness.

Now that I think about it, ordinary people like us really don’t have the luxury of having concubines.

Being jealous all day long, not only does it make the house a mess, but if you are not careful, you will be implicated and your career will be affected..."

Before Chen Guiquan could finish his words, it was time to go to court.

He had to stop the propaganda for the time being and followed the ministers into the hall.

Eunuch Wei said as usual: "If you have something to say, please report it. If not, please leave the court!"

After waiting for a while and seeing no one coming forward to speak, he was ready to call for the end of the court.

At this time, Chen Guiquan stepped out and knelt down to plead guilty.

"Your Majesty, the princess visited my residence yesterday, but was neglected and framed by the concubine in the residence who was not worthy of being on the stage.

I feel guilty towards the Emperor and the Princess, please punish me!"

Emperor Dong Ling sat up straight.

"Oh? How did you neglect and frame my granddaughter? Tell me about it."

Chen Guiquan told the story again in front of Emperor Dongling and all the civil and military officials.

“The princess ordered them to beg for a living, and when I came to court, they had already left.

Thinking about it now, I regret taking them in.

If my colleagues want peace at home and a few days of quiet life, please take this as a warning and take good care of your wives and children."

Emperor Dong Ling said with a look of surprise after hearing this: "Jiu'er is right, they really deserve to be punished.

Since Jiuer has already punished you, I will leave it as it is for now because of your good attitude and wait and see the results.

I will send people to check on their begging situation. If they don’t follow through seriously, or if someone helps them, don’t blame me.”

Chen Guiquan agreed repeatedly.

Royal study room.

After leaving the court.

Nangong Honglie and his son were called to the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, Chen Guiquan took the initiative to plead guilty because he was afraid of being punished by you. What he said was a bit evasive."

Nangong Honglie added some details.

Emperor Dong Ling nodded: "Jiu'er was wronged! However, her method is quite good!

After Lord Li and Lord Chen made such announcement, those ministers would probably think twice.

As for the two people who bullied Jiuer, I will send someone to follow them and let them enjoy the life of begging. "

"Your Majesty is right. This matter cannot be brought to light. It is better to handle it this way.

By the way, Jiuer also said that they will practice in the mansion and will come to the palace to see you in a few days."

Emperor Dongling nodded and got down to business.

"There is news about the Jiangyuan Gold Mine. The Zhou family has been imprisoned. A master went to the gold mine and is repairing the collapsed area in preparation for subsequent mining."

"This is a good thing!" Nangong Honglie said happily.

Emperor Dongling took out another letter.

"Just take a look."

After reading it, Nangong Honglie said happily: "The third prince Li Jinrui was appointed as the crown prince. I heard that he has a gentle temperament and pays more attention to the national economy and people's livelihood.

This is a good thing for us at Dongling!"

Emperor Dong Ling nodded in agreement.

"Yes! This is much better than the eldest prince Li Jinyu becoming the emperor. Li Jinyu originally had the best chance, but Jiuer messed with it and changed the political situation in Southern Jin."

Nangong Yunsheng took over the conversation: "Li Jinyu has not yet become the emperor, but he dared to send people to Dongling to kill us and contain Jiuer.

If he becomes the emperor and has power in his hands, is there anything he can't do?

If Jiuer killed him, it would be a good thing for both countries and would avoid war between the two countries.

However, there is one thing that is quite strange. Jiuer killed their eldest prince, but why didn't Nanjin react at all? "

Nangong Honglie smiled: "It can only prove one thing, that the Emperor of Nanjin knew about sending people to Dongling to kill us.

I was afraid of Jiuer's revenge, so I pretended to be deaf and dumb to calm the situation."

"Then should we take advantage of this topic to make some comments..."
