was led to the imperial study by Gonggong Sun, Zuo Chen was relatively calm, after all, he had been here twice and was prepared, and he kowtowed to salute and was rewarded with a seat.

"I, I heard above the court that you beat Li Xingfang yesterday?"

As soon as he sat down, Zuo Chen was startled, and almost fell off the low stool, feeling that this was to ask for guilt, not what he imagined! He looked at his uncle Yu Xianmin in a snort, and then peeked at the emperor, but he didn't dare to answer rashly.

"Huh!?"

The emperor snorted softly, and finally frightened Zuo Chen into a panic, "Your Majesty, yesterday Weichen beat that person, and he didn't know that he was a member of the court without wearing an official uniform, and he hated him for insulting the dignity of the royal family, so he ...... Only...... Punched. Saying that, observing the emperor's expression, I wanted to say that my cousin kicked Li Xingfang to the ground, but I was afraid that it would not match the statement in the court, and it would make my uncle dislike.

Yu Xianmin breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, unlike what Li Xingfang said in the court, Zuo Chen admitted that it was his doing, and it would not be an obstacle to it, thinking that although the identity of the princess has not been implemented, after all, it is the queen mother who has spoken first. Even if Fang Xiaoliang is a young talent, how can he compete with the prince of the current dynasty? What's more, the prince still has a chance to succeed to the throne, and the princess has the hope of being a mother in the world, thinking like this, she raised her eyes to look at the emperor.

"Disgrace to the dignity of the royal family?" The emperor looked at Pan Xiang and laughed, "Tell me, how can you insult the dignity of the royal family?" ”

"Enlightening the saint, he insulted the future princess, and said that he was not ashamed to say that his eyes were disrespectful and his mouth was foul language! How can there be such a bastard, shouldn't he be beaten? ”

Pan Xiang and the emperor glanced at each other, smiled and bowed slightly, thinking, thinking that when he proposed it in front of the queen mother, he never thought that it would be delayed for so long.

The emperor looked at Yu Xianmin and said with a smile: "...... insults the future princess, it really should be beaten! There are ......" groaned slightly and nodded, "It's been five years!" Well, there should be an explanation, it's really unseemly to drag on all the time! I'll have to consult with the Queen Mother,...... Reconclusive. ”

Hearing the emperor's words, it seems that there is no intention of punishment, Zuo Chen's heart is so big that a big stone fell to the ground, secretly glanced at his uncle Yu Xianmin, and said in his heart, although there was a slight accident, fortunately he didn't make a mess of things.

"My Emperor Shengming!" Pan Xiang said respectfully.

In Pan Xiang's view, this matter should have been settled a long time ago, and the emperor, who has passed the age of Dayan, should be crowned the prince with a manual. If the dust settles on the canonization of the crown prince, I believe that the officials in each camp will take measures for the long-term consideration. Whether it is a white cat or a black cat must be clear, and people with ulterior motives in the province are always muddying the waters, and everyone is in danger and at a loss.

Looking at Pan Xiang, the emperor nodded slightly, how could he not know his thoughts? The three princes each have a prince, none of them is their protégé, the stakes will be revealed, do not think of a way out of the matter of the crown princess, once which prince succeeds to the throne, it will be a blow to his students, many years of politics will inevitably have friction with various camps, and there are many people who bury their hatreds, therefore, the future queen has become a talisman of Pan Xiang's faction.

Pan Xiang's measures are understandable, but this Liu Zuochen wants to beat it, so as not to spoil and strengthen the hero's courage and get out of control, and every once in a while, he will be rude to which of the court officials, and the victims are in tears above the court, not to mention that they are out of character, isn't it annoying and annoying? After thinking about it, the emperor's face darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "I, I am very pleased with your loyalty to maintain the dignity of the royal family, but ...... How can you be reckless in the matter of punishment? ……”

Zuo Chen, who was frightened for a while, only felt that his heart and liver jumped to his throat together, and looked at his uncle Yu Xianmin nervously, seeing his indifferent and indifferent appearance, he couldn't help but blush in an instant, and raised his hand to scratch his head.

Seeing Zuo Chen's expression of scratching his ears and cheeks, the emperor couldn't help laughing, "Ahem...... punish you for a year, do you have complaints?" ”

After all, it can be regarded as a third-grade official, with no real power and no actual action, and he was fined for another year. Zuo Chen said in his heart, this is really empty of its name, the gimmick is not small and the waiter of the Sanpin Ministry believes that after tomorrow's court, it will become a joke after tea and dinner for other adults. Thinking like this, he didn't dare to object, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to thank him.

Now that you kid is still young, he is favored by the emperor, and he has developed such a domineering temperament for a long time, once it causes a big disaster, I don't know how long the emperor will protect you, Yu Xianmin thought in his heart, faintly a little uneasy.

I want to punish you for your dedication and loyalty to the country, and I want to give him an explanation after suffering from your fists and feet, if not, it will not make all the ministers feel cold? He Li Xingfang has no mouth and no royal dignity, and he will not be forgiven when I find out! The emperor thought secretly, and said angrily: "The court is crying and choking, and the government cannot be carried out, so he refuses to let me worry!?" How unreasonable! ”

The emperor's words obviously mean something, each of them plays fifty boards, you Liu Zuochen don't feel wronged, at least you beat people up!

"My Emperor Shengming, Weichen also thinks that this unhealthy trend should indeed be killed! Thinking that after Li Xingfang and a group of adults got entangled together, he became more and more ignorant of his self-respect, and he actually sprinkled like a shrew and a scoundrel in the court, I really don't know where he got his courage! ”

is as cunning as Pan Xiang, naturally refusing to give up the opportunity to discredit the hostile, and at the same time following the emperor's wishes, he also won his favor, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

"Humph!"

Snorted noncommittally, the emperor naturally knew the meaning of Pan Xiang's instigation, a bowl of water was level, so as not to make him a strong bully, which made him unbearable and secretly resentful in his heart, but he couldn't catch his mistakes and punish him severely, fortunately, Zuo Chen had a lot of evil anger for him for a while, thinking, he couldn't help but look at Zuo Chen, smiled, and said in his heart, if Zuo Chen had been so old and there was no camp strife, wouldn't it be perfect to vent evil for me from time to time!?

Looking at the smile on his face, Yu Xianmin obviously had a mistake, thinking that the emperor wanted to listen to Zuo Chen's donation of silver, so he turned around and asked, "...... Didn't Liu Shilang want to donate silver taels to the emperor? ”

"Ugh! Be. In the Holy Spirit, Wechen has recently made a lot of gains in foreign merchants. Thinking that the Holy Lord treated Weichen so kindly, there was nothing to repay, so I would like to dedicate the 840,000 taels of silver obtained from this harvest to my emperor. ”

It was a waste of time to make such a face-saving opportunity, but not to make good use of it and exaggerate it! Pan Xiang sneered and glanced at Zuo Chen.

The expressions of the servants all fell into the eyes of the emperor, they are all foxes for thousands of years, and there are still people who raise foxes after all! The emperor who consciously strategizes, the thoughts of such courtiers are commonplace, and there is no need to break them if they are not critical. That Sun monkey can turn over 108,000 miles with one heel, but he still can't escape the Five Finger Mountain of the Buddha! Thinking like this, the emperor wanted to wave the book case and praise Zuo Chen, but finally secretly breathed a deep sigh and pressed it down.

"Very good! Very good! I am very pleased! "The emperor is like a spring breeze," I ,...... Tell me, what reward do you want? ”

It's rare that the emperor doesn't speak in a supreme tone, but he feels very approachable.

Happiness in my heart is one thing, some appreciation of Zuo Chen is the second, and the rest of the reason is that there is really nothing to reward. The second-class marquis and the squire of the Ministry of Industry are added, so they can't be posthumously awarded the first-class marquis or the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, right? Wouldn't that be child's play? After years of hard climbing, don't the many courtiers vomit blood after hearing about it? The silver is even more unpalatable, and after the people donate it in the morning, they will give it back? That's even more nonsense!

Zuo Chen's heart and liver have been rolling in his throat, at first he was frightened by the emperor, but now he is worried about provoking the emperor's displeasure, the bamboo basket is a small matter, and stealing chickens does not lose tens of thousands of stones, but he is more wronged than Li Ziqin. 840,000 taels of silver with white flowers, thrown into the water, not even a splash, just think about it, the flesh hurts! He hesitated to look at the emperor, bit his lower lip and then looked at his uncle Yu Xianmin, and he didn't dare to say anything when he squirmed.

"That's it, is there anything else that is difficult to hide?" The emperor saw the clue, and he was even more curious, thinking, what the hell do you kid have in mind? The tone was slightly heavier, "You are allowed to speak bluntly, speak!" ”
