Chapter 354: This Fights
The corners of Emperor Chu's mouth hooked slightly, his eyes flashed, and the light fell on Mu Tianda's face, of course, this is a judgment but it all depends on his mind.
"Bad luck at home!" Mu Tianda bowed his head deeply again, his voice choked with a little helplessness and exhaustion, "I really don't dare to hide it from Your Majesty, my mother will be in a coma and has not woken up yet, all because of my brother Mu Yongchao." ”
Emperor Chu's eyes immediately changed, and his heart moved, but he still asked quietly, "Oh, because of Mu Yongchao?" What's going on? ”
Speaking of this, Mu Tianda's face immediately showed undisguised sadness and indignation.
raised his head slightly, his eyes were red, and his voice was choked to hide the meaning of sadness and anger, "Your Majesty Mingjian, this matter is a long story, all in all, to put it simply, he disrespects his grandmother and insults him in the front, and then pushes and beats his grandmother in the back; It is really a scandal in the minister's family, if it were not for His Majesty's inquiry, the minister would be ashamed to tell this matter to others. ”
"Is there such a thing?" Emperor Chu raised his eyebrows slightly, with a look of surprise and inexplicability, "Mu Aiqing has figured it out?" Could there be some misunderstanding? ”
You must know that once the charge of insulting his mother-in-law and pushing and beating his mother-in-law is confirmed, Mu Yongchao will want to turn over in the future, no matter who becomes the emperor, he will not like to appoint such a seriously immoral person.
Because even if he is an emperor, he can't do whatever he wants, he wants to level the world, so he naturally has to take into account the intentions of the people.
Mu Tianda Cai doesn't care whether Emperor Chu hints or explicitly, in short, today is the best opportunity; What Xiaoxiao said was the best opportunity to drive Mu Yongchao's family out of Mufu.
He couldn't compromise and let go because of the pressure hinted at by Emperor Chu.
"Your Majesty," Mu Tianda's eyes were red, and his expression was still full of grief and indignation, "It's really the misfortune of the minister's family, and the events of the day are ...... in plain sight, if not, the minister would rather believe that this is a misunderstanding." ”
The implication is that so many people have seen it with their own eyes, even if anyone comes forward, they can't cover up the crimes committed by Mu Yongchao in public.
Emperor Chu's face sank, but it was not obvious, he glanced at Mu Tianda, who looked sad and angry, and said slowly, "Oh, according to what Aiqing said, it seems that this is indeed the case." ”
Mu Tianda kowtowed deeply, "The minister never dares to deceive His Majesty in the slightest. ”
Emperor Chu rolled his gaze, and seemed to be touched for a moment, "It seems that the separation between the two places for decades is indeed a big gap." ”
"Your Majesty." Mu Tianda bowed deeply again, and said with a sincere and fearful face, "The minister has no way to discipline him, and he is really afraid, and now his mother is seriously ill, so I implore Your Majesty to fulfill the minister's filial piety and service." ”
Old lady Mu has been dead for decades, and Mu Tianda, as a brother-in-law, naturally has to take on the responsibility of being the eldest brother as a father, so he has to discipline Mu Yongchao.
Another implication of his resignation is the meaning of letting Emperor Chu take back the imperial mansion.
He doesn't live in the official residence, and Mu Yongchao naturally has no reason to live in the current Mu Mansion anymore. There is no official residence, and everyone will not live separately in the future.
If anything happens to the two families after that, no one will contact them.
After all, today's matter is in front of the emperor, and even Emperor Chu knows that their brothers are not in harmony, and who can put them together in the future.
Emperor Chu glanced at him meaningfully, "It seems that Mu Aiqing's filial piety can really show the sun and the moon." ”
In order to drive the eye-catching cousin out of Mufu, he did not hesitate to put the matter of brotherly discord in front of the palace; You must know that once this kind of ugly thing happens in other people's families, it is all eager to cover up and whitewash the peace in order to gain a good reputation, but this Mu family is special.
Now Mu Tianda resigned on the grounds of resigning and going home to fulfill his filial piety, just for this level of reason, Emperor Chu would never agree.
But looking at Mu Tianda's attitude today, I'm afraid that if I don't give him some sweetness, I won't be willing to back down easily.
"According to Mu Aiqing, this matter seems to be true," Emperor Chu pondered for a moment, and then said slowly, "Mu Yongchao's disobedience to his mother is a great unfilial piety, and I don't think it is as good as this, so I will punish him to personally serve Mrs. Mu until Mrs. Mu recovers." ”
The sound was gentle and steady, but it was like a thunderbolt that suddenly exploded above Mu Tianda's head. The corners of Emperor Chu's eyes swept over, and he asked in a very negotiable tone, "Mu Aiqing, what do you think of this move?" ”
Mu Tianda's face turned pale, and let Mu Yongchao serve Mrs. Mu, this is the holy will; It is a holy decree for Mu Yongchao's punishment, and it is also a holy decree that he cannot defend.
However, how could Mu Tianda agree to such a punishment?
This is not to punish Mu Yongchao at all, but to punish him in disguise.
Secretly gritted his teeth, Mu Tianda hung his head respectfully, but insisted on saying, "Although Your Majesty's intentions are good, but the minister feels that the brother's hatred for his mother is not a day or two, if His Majesty will let him serve him, the minister is only worried that he will not serve his mother wholeheartedly; At that time, I am afraid that my mother's condition will not only be difficult to improve, but will eventually aggravate ....... ”
He paused, and when the pressure on his head suddenly increased, he gritted his teeth and continued to say, "The minister is courageous, and I implore Your Majesty to fulfill the minister's pure filial piety and allow the minister to resign." ”
"As for the fault of the younger brother," Mu Tianda was silent again, the corners of his eyes rose slightly, and he glanced up at Emperor Chu before he said, "The minister's discipline is not effective, and he will also work for His Majesty's holy judgment." ”
He turned around and told Emperor Chu, I will serve my own wife, and as for your courtiers, how you want to punish them, you will listen to them.
The premise is, don't put the murderer of the mother in front of you.
Although Mu Tianda's words are very respectful and nice on the surface, this is the meaning expressed underneath.
Emperor Chu was displeased when he heard the Sacred Heart, but he would not reprimand Mu Tianda to his face.
He stared at Mu Tianda, his brows condensed slightly, and he doubted Mu Tianda's intention to resolutely resign.
"Then Mu Aiqing is very decided?"
Mu Tianda was stunned, listening to Emperor Chu's tone, it didn't seem like a temptation, but it seemed like he had already moved and really wanted to fulfill him.
After only a little hesitation, he responded, "Your Majesty is clear, and the minister is afraid that he will not be able to fulfill his filial piety to his mother." "There is nothing wrong with resigning as a real official, at least you can stay away from the rights and wrongs in this court.
Especially Mu Yongchao's family suddenly returned to the capital, which made Mu Tianda always feel faintly uneasy in his heart.
If he really resigns, what really happens to that cousin in the future, it won't even affect them.
Thinking about it this way, Mu Tianda, who was originally just pretending to resign, will have seven points of sincerity.
Emperor Chu saw that his expression was sincere and frank, but it didn't seem to be a fake, and he was even more puzzled for a while.
But it's still that sentence, Emperor Chu won't really allow him to resign because of this matter.
"Mu Aiqing's filial piety is commendable, but Aiqing can't abandon everyone because of a small family; It is important to be filial to your small family, but isn't it your duty to be loyal to the country as a citizen of Southern Chu? ”
Emperor Chu picked his eyelids, "Mu Aiqing should not mention the matter of resignation." ”
Mu Tianda sighed secretly in his heart, often saying that the king's heart is unpredictable, he really can't understand the mind of the person above, obviously he had the idea of allowing him to resign just now, but in a blink of an eye, he changed his mind again.
...... he was not allowed to resign from the official position, Mu Tianda's mind was turning, this was to allow him to put forward another condition to punish Mu Yongchao.
"Your Majesty is loved, and your ministers are ashamed." Mu Tianda lowered his head, with a panicked expression, "The minister's brother-in-law has an arrogant temper at home, and the minister is really powerless to discipline. ”
Emperor Chu's brows tightened, and after going around in such a big circle, Mu Tianda finally revealed what was in his heart.
was faintly unhappy in his heart, and glanced at Mu Tianda with cold eyes.
Anyone who is used like this will feel uncomfortable, not to mention Emperor Chu, the king of a country. When Mu Tianda vaguely made this request, his heart was also full of cold sweat.
Emperor Chu was silent, only glanced over with a cold glint in his eyes, and after a while, when Mu Tianda felt that his heartbeat was so nervous that he was out of beat, Emperor Chu said slowly, "Okay, this Mu Mansion is already ......."
Mu Tianda saw that he was relieved, and there was a kind of joy in his heart, but before he could speak, he saw a chamberlain hurriedly walk in from the corner door; The Emperor of Chu, who was still very anxious, looked at Emperor Chu and stopped Emperor Chu halfway through his words.
Emperor Chu twisted his eyebrows, and glared at the attendant with a slightly sideways gaze that was obviously very displeased, "What's the matter?" ”
"Your Majesty, Mrs. Mu is asking to see you outside the palace."
Hearing this, Emperor Chu's originally angry expression suddenly changed to extreme surprise, "She? Make no mistake, right? ”
Didn't you say that you were unconscious in Mufu? Why did you suddenly wake up and enter the palace?
In today's play, which one is Mu Tianda singing? Why is it that even he can see it in the clouds?
His eyes moved, and Emperor Chu said quietly, "Pass." ”
The courtiers in this hall were all looking forward to Emperor Chu finishing half of what he said, and after seeing Emperor Chu and the inner servant confess a few words, they suddenly glanced at Mu Tianda with a smile, and suddenly said something secretive, "Mu Aiqing, happy event." ”
Mu Tianda looked inexplicable, but in the face of Emperor Chu's hair-making gaze and this puzzling happy event, he suddenly felt a very bad feeling in his heart.
He raised his head tremblingly, his eyes full of doubts, "Your Majesty, how can the minister be happy?" ”
Emperor Chu raised his eyebrows, raised his lofty and deep gaze slightly, and threw himself far away at the door of the main hall.
"Mu Aiqing doesn't have to be anxious, just wait."
Mu Tianda was stunned, and when he heard his specious hint, his heart became more and more uneasy.
What news did the chamberlain report to Emperor Chu just now?
Unexpectedly caused such a strange reaction from Emperor Chu?
This will, not to mention that Mu Tianda is confused, even everyone in the hall also looks curious and inexplicable; Seeing Emperor Chu looking at the door of the main hall pointedly, everyone was curious and secretly took the corner of their eyes to glance out of the door.
I can't wait to have a sneak peek at the foreign objects in this hall at the first time.
However, in this Jinluan Palace, under the unruly but absolutely majestic and domineering gaze of Emperor Chu, no one dared not pay attention to the appearance, and no one dared to blatantly make undignified behavior.
Not long ago, Mu Xiaofeng was hiding in the pavilion very leisurely, but suddenly saw the red shadow hurriedly coming in with a grim face.
"Miss, things are not good."
