When Lu You was painting, Li Ji was still sitting thoughtlessly, and Lu Duan in the corner saw it, glanced at Lu Ming, and the two of them came over with a bow.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, dogs can't be taught, so Your Highness will bother."

"Gong Lu, there is a question I haven't figured out, if I guess correctly, the eldest lady of the Yan family's New Year's ceremony invited the sons and daughters of some famous families, Lu You is a concubine who doesn't say it, and he can't speak, and he has never participated in this kind of gathering, who gave you the courage to bring him to these sons of the family? Also, since he brought it, why did Brother Ning leave him alone and let him run around like a blind cat in the Yan family? Li Ji asked.

After meeting the three fathers and sons of the Lu family, he didn't believe the words of the father and son. It's just that there is one thing he hasn't been able to understand, Lu Ming can't even look down on a girl like Yan Yan, who does he have a crush on?

But he couldn't ask this so bluntly, so he changed his words.

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister has already said that it was Clumsy Jing's mistake, Clumsy Jing also watched the child pass the age of the weak crown, and it was difficult to tell him the right family, no way, so Lu Ming took him out to walk around with others, saying that no matter what, this kid is still a little talented, in case his poems and paintings are caught by someone and spread out, someone is willing to marry the family's sister and sister to him." Lu Duan had to come up with this set of rhetoric again.

Besides, this is also the truth, because Mrs. Lu really thought so at that time, and said so to Lu Ming.

"Your Royal Highness, at that time, Xiao Ke was working with several brothers to draw up a poem for the party, and ignored his brother for a while, and when Xiao Ke found out that his brother was missing and was about to look for it, he knew that his brother was in trouble." Lu Ming followed to explain.

This answer is definitely not what Li Ji wants, I have to say that the father and son cooperate too well, and there are almost no flaws.

However, Li Ji's crown prince in the past few years has not been done in vain, after a little consideration, he came up with an idea, "That's it, Duke Lu, you go back first, after Lu You finishes painting, I will send someone to send him and Brother Ning Jing back together, you better go and get busy with you, the sooner this matter is resolved, the better, I am still waiting to give an explanation to the imperial grandmother." ”

Lu Duan saw that the prince opened his mouth to provoke people, and he also guessed that the prince wanted to talk to Lu Ming alone, and the purpose was naturally to get some truth out of Lu Ming's mouth.

He is naturally relieved about this son, but what he is not worried about is the prince.

The prince doesn't look at his young age, he doesn't have a lot of eyes at all, so he embarrassed him in front of those ministers, and he will take advantage of his unpreparedness to invite Lu You and Lu Ming to the East Palace, maybe he has some bad ideas.

His two sons have always been simple-minded, especially Lu You, where is Li Ji's opponent?

Moreover, with his understanding of Li Ji, he is a rather protective person, and it is definitely not normal for him to be able to talk to his two sons so calmly when something so big happens.

In this case, where would Lu Duan dare to walk away?

"Back to His Royal Highness, it's not bad for a while, the minister is waiting for them, Lu You is timid, the minister is afraid that he will be afraid if he can't see the minister after he comes out, and with the minister here, he will be more or less at ease." Lu Duan bowed and replied.

Although Li Ji was unhappy when he saw this, it was also expected, for this reason, he didn't open his mouth again, but also asked some things about Lu You's childhood, and also asked Lu You and Lu Ming how the two brothers usually get along, and how they come and go.

Lu Duan and Lu Ming responded with twelve points of spirit, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the clothes on the father and son were soaked.

Fortunately, Lu You's painting was not slow, and he came out with a painting in less than an hour.

Li Ji took the painting, the picture is three people sitting in a thatched hut by the river drinking, the movements of the three people are different, some raise a glass, some hit the rope, some sing, there is a seven or eight-year-old child who has just taken the corner to carry a jar of wine over with great difficulty, and there is an old man in the corner who is sitting numbly in front of the stove to make a fire. In the distance, there is a wide river and rushing water, and a little closer to the bank, there are a few low-level laborers begging for a living, some are pulling fiber, some are fishing, and some are hawking.

Li Ji looked at this painting, and his heart shook a lot, it seems that this kid is indeed a little talented in his stomach, but unfortunately, he was delayed by a pair of unscrupulous parents.

"Lu You, you kneel, I ask you, do you know your mistake?" Li Ji's face changed suddenly.

Lu You and Lu Ming, who were present, didn't expect Li Ji to suddenly change his face, they were a little confused, and after glancing at Lu Duan, they all knelt down honestly.

Lu Duan guessed that today's pass was not so good, and at this time, he was very glad that he hadn't left, so he walked to Lu You's side and comforted: "Child, don't be afraid, my father told you that you must have the courage to admit and bear the wrong things." ”

Hearing this, Lu You looked up at Li Ji and nodded, but he couldn't speak.

"It's good to know what you're wrong. Lu You, I came to you today to return the innocence of the eldest lady of the Yan family to the queen mother's order, and I have already explained this matter to your father. However, I also have a few words to tell you, although it is an unintentional mistake that you bumped into the eldest lady of the Yan family, but it is an indisputable fact that you collided with the eldest lady of the Yan family, and it is not an exaggeration to break your legs and feet and send you to prison. But I think that you are suffering from a hidden disease, and I also think of the reputation of the Lu family and your father, I will spare you once, but you still have to have the admonition that you should have, otherwise, in the future, these children of the family in the capital will follow the same example, and will not mess up the atmosphere? ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Qiqi, Xiao Ke is willing to accept it on behalf of his brother, and besides, this matter was originally Xiao Ke's fault, it was Xiao Ke's dereliction of duty, and the fault was not his brother." Lu Ming hurriedly knelt down and pleaded.

"Don't worry, I can't run away from you. But I'm judging Lu You now. After Li Ji finished speaking, he got up and walked in front of Lu You, "You raise your head and look at me." ”

Lu You also raised his head obediently, his eyes were more puzzled than frightened, and he didn't seem to understand how the person who was still talking to him on an equal footing suddenly changed again.

"Since you have confessed your mistake, I think that you are indeed suffering from a hidden disease, and you will be punished with twenty rods, do you admit it?"

Lu You nodded.

"Come on, pull the eldest son of the Lu family down, and punish him with twenty rods." Li Ji spoke.

Soon came in, and two guards pulled Lu You out.

"Lu Ming, as the son of the Lu family, and Lu You's siblings, but you haven't fulfilled your responsibilities as half of your siblings, it's a mistake for you to bring Lu You into the Yan family; You let others bully and despise him, regardless of the second mistake, after the accident, you didn't think about the aftermath in time but rushed to repent, this is the third mistake, therefore, if you say that Lu You is five points wrong in this matter, you are very wrong, come and pull Lu Ming down, and the rod will be forty. ”

As soon as the words fell, two more guards came in and pulled Lu Ming out.
