There was silence in the imperial study, several palace people stood with their hands down, no one dared to say a word, noon had passed, the temperature in the room had risen a little, Chu Jingshuo sweated on his forehead, but his body was condensed.

Half an hour had passed, and the emperor only said that the two of them would wait in the imperial study, but he didn't think that time would pass by minute by second, and there were still only two of them in the study except for the palace maids like wooden people.

Glancing at Chu Muhan lightly, the other party's face remained unchanged, it was still an ice cube face that had not changed for thousands of years, the facial contours were hard, and the side face was perfect, but the coldness was a little excessive, as if he was a vulgar god who did not eat the fireworks of the world.

"Don't worry, my father won't make us wait for a long time, he must have his intentions in this action!"

Sensing that Chu Jingshuo was absent-minded, Chu Muhan softly dissuaded, and before a word landed, he heard a steady footstep slowly approaching, and the atmosphere suddenly fell into a dead silence, if he didn't guess wrong, Bacheng was the emperor.

"You know it thoroughly, and you don't even have a trace of remorse when you make such a big mistake? You two really give me a long face! ”

Sure enough, before people arrived, the emperor was indeed a little old, his voice was not as clear as before, with a hint of morbid hoarseness in his thickness, his body bones were not as hard as before, and he always staggered when he walked and needed someone to help him, but the emperor's aura was still there, and the aura around his body was still strong between his words or when he gestured.

Habitually subservient, even if Chu Jingshuo is not afraid of being upright, he has to succumb to his majestic domineering, his heart trembled violently, and the whole person seemed to be poured with a basin of hot water, only to feel that his heartbeat was a little more intense, and his facial expression was a little unnatural.

However, Chu Muhan is very "thick-skinned", compared to Chu Jingshuo's pale face next door, his indifference seems very abrupt, as if he is staying in his own palace, standing at will, his face is relaxed and calm, even if the emperor intends to exert pressure, he has never seen him in a moment's hurry.

"Son-in-law, see father! Father......

The two had a tacit understanding of saluting together, and they were stopped by the emperor halfway through the words, and the other party waved his hand to signal them to get up without much politeness, and when he sat down in the harem and presented hot tea, he slowly spoke:

"Tell me, what's going on today? What are you two eating, throwing shame in front of the mission, and dropping the chain at the critical moment, idiot!! ”

The emperor's face remained unchanged, he took a sip of tea and said, his eyes lingered on the teacup in his hand, as if he was concentrating on observing whether there were cracks on the teacup of blue and white porcelain, his body was slightly leaning and supporting one hand on several cases, and the white of the top of his hair was faintly visible.

"Tell my father, this matter started because of the son-in-law, it was the son's negligence, and he did not find out in time that there were ill-intentioned people hiding in the crowd, I thought that at the feet of the Son of Heaven, no matter how rampant those thieves were, they had to weigh the weight, not to mention that at this welcoming event, I didn't think that the other party was really bold, and took advantage of the absence of the son-in-law to take advantage of the loophole, so the trick succeeded and escaped!"

Without waiting for Chu Jingshuo to speak, Chu Muhan first seized the opportunity, and couldn't help but say, concisely stunned that he was taking all the responsibility on himself, but what he said had a hidden meaning, if he didn't think about it carefully, he really couldn't find anything unusual.

Others may not be able to hear it, but who the emperor is, he doesn't need to think about it to know what the other layer of Chu Muhan's words means, which tells him that the accident that happened this time is actually not an accident, and there are people behind the scenes who manipulate the operation of the whole thing.

After hearing this, the emperor frowned slightly, put down the teacup in his hand, and stared at Chu Muhan with a torch, as if he wanted to find a crack in his delicate face to prove that there was a falsehood in his words, but his trick did not work at this time, although Chu Muhan did not look directly at the emperor, the fearlessness on this face seemed to have proved everything.

"You will make excuses, obviously you two dereliction of duty and did not fulfill your responsibilities, and even look for excuses to blame all the faults on the so-called thieves, obviously it is your people's attitude that has angered the people, and it has caused all kinds of bad consequences, but you don't want to admit your mistakes, who taught you this stinky problem, it's simply hateful!"

The emperor seemed to be a little angry, the two thick black long eyebrows twisted into two black bumps, saying a word this black bump will be rounded, the more he speaks, the more mellow he becomes, from the very beginning of the elliptical can almost form a real round bump, but he reined in the precipice, after the last sentence was finished, the pimple dissipated instantly, and the two thick black long eyebrows returned to their original appearance.

Pointing at his nose and scolding is not only the privilege of ordinary people, now the emperor, who is the king of a country, is as hysterical as the unreasonable woman on the street, the muscles on his face trembled slightly and he cooperated with all his strength to show his anger, he threw a few wolf brushes on several cases at Chu Muhan, but he deviated from the track, the brush did not touch the other party's clothes in the slightest, the emperor naturally refused to give up, and copied the inkstone in front of him and fell over.

Chu Muhan frowned, this time the emperor finally succeeded, the ground was full of ink, but the inkstone was not broken, but the hem of Chu Muhan's water-blue clothes was instantly dyed black, and it was really embarrassing, if he went out, others would definitely know what was going on, how could the face of the Hades be done? !

The emperor was finally satisfied with his "masterpiece", and slowly sat down with a few cases, his sharp eyes still lingering on Chu Muhan, just like looking at the blue and white porcelain teacup just now.

"Father, the son is wronged, the matter is definitely not what the father imagined, there are indeed thieves who deliberately make trouble, at that time, no one would have thought that there were people with bad intentions hidden in the crowd, and they actually took advantage of the east wind to kill people, and then put all this blame on the son, what the son said is true, and please ask the father to investigate!"

The two faced each other-for-tat, Chu Jingxuan couldn't interject at all, so he had to act as a "bystander" in the matter, witnessing the emperor's anger and Chu Muhan's fearlessness, and then sighed a little in his heart, feeling that he was not bold enough and his aura was not enough, and it was really a little choking to deal with such a scene!

"Hmph, when the matter is big, I know that you are wronged, you are wronged, what do you say about the woman who was implicated for no reason, so many people are watching, you can tell the reason, and come up with a little evidence to prove how you were wronged and framed, but at this time, when there is a disturbance on the street, how will the people think of the people in the government!"
