Chapter 55: Lu Jiuyuan was punishing her in disguise
The next day, under the instruction of the five princes, Yushi was about to impeach Lu Jiuyuan, but the emperor suddenly thundered and threw a secret letter on the five princes.
"You bastard, look at what you've done!"
Qi Feng was waiting to see Lu Jiuyuan being impeached and reprimanded by his father, he had always been angry with Lu Jiuyuan for marrying Tao Yao in his heart, and he held a grudge against him, but he didn't expect that the fire burned on himself.
He was stunned for a moment, but then he reacted, knelt on the ground, and said in fear: "The son is stupid, and he doesn't understand what his father meant......
"Don't understand?" The emperor was furious, "As a prince, you actually robbed the people's daughters and connived at your subordinates to seize the people's fields, which is really lawless, and has disgraced the face of our royal family."
The evidence is conclusive, and from now on, all the errands in your hands will be handed over to the three princes to deal with, and you will go back to your palace for me, and think about it behind closed doors, without my will, you are not allowed to step out of the palace for half a step. ”
The five princes were stunned.
reacted, and he hurriedly defended: "Father, the son is wronged......"
"Wronged? Tell me, then, who has wronged you? The Emperor sneered.
"Whoever benefits is whoever!" The fifth prince said with a stiff neck.
Qi Qing, the third prince who was watching the excitement on the side, heard the words, and immediately came out of the ranks, "Father, the errand of the fifth brother should be handed over to others, and the sons and daughters are not competent." ”
The emperor laughed angrily, "What, want to avoid suspicion?" ”
The third prince lowered his head and said, "Erchen doesn't want to tell the truth!" ”
"Rubbish!" The emperor scolded angrily, turned his head and gave the errand to the other princes, then looked at the fifth prince and said, "Do you think everyone is suspected of framing you?" ”
The fifth prince hung his head in dejection.
Seeing this, the five princes and their party were ready to move and wanted to intercede for him, but the emperor took the first step and said: "This matter has been decided, whoever dares to intercede for this bastard will be guilty of one more degree!" ”
For a while, the five princes and their party died down.
Originally, he was preparing to impeach Lu Jiuyuan, but when he saw that the emperor was so angry, he quietly retreated.
If you move forward at this juncture, it will become an outlet for the emperor.
They weren't going to come forward at this time.
……
After getting off the court, Gu Changqing got into Lu Jiuyuan's carriage and said with emotion: "The fifth prince is arrogant and domineering, relying on the strong power of the mother family, he has always been lawless, and he doesn't take anyone in his eyes.
was reprimanded by the emperor in court today, not to mention the loss of face, and the fat difference in his hands is gone. ”
"If you do many unrighteous deeds, you will kill yourself! Sooner or later, there will be bad consequences! Lu Jiuyuan said lightly.
Gu Changqing nodded, "That's right, there are many people in the court who don't like him, but they don't dare to say anything because they are afraid of his identity as a prince and the power of his mother's family."
Being punished and dealt with by the emperor today is really happy! ”
After a pause, he suddenly looked at Lu Jiuyuan scrutinically, and said uncertainly: "Is the matter of the fifth prince related to you?" ”
Lu Jiuyuan glanced at him, "How can you see it?" ”
Gu Changqing said with a smile: "I guess, but I heard about something interesting yesterday."
I heard that my virtuous and gentle sister-in-law smashed someone's drunken moon building, I don't know if it has something to do with this incident? ”
Lu Jiuyuan was noncommittal.
Gu Changqing was surprised, "You really did it?" ”
"So what? It is an indisputable fact that the five princes forcibly robbed the people's daughters and connived at their subordinates to seize the people's land. Lu Jiuyuan said coldly.
Gu Changqing smiled, "The fifth prince relies on the power of his mother's family, he has to do this kind of thing in a day, why haven't I seen you engage in him before?" This time there was such a big fire, it seems that my sister-in-law and wife still worked. ”
Lu Jiuyuan paused, and said lightly: "The fifth prince has a despicable and tyrannical character, if he is allowed to take power in the future, Dayan will be in danger." ”
Hearing this, Gu Changqing sighed, "That's right, but although the prince has a good character, he is not favored, you see that the emperor just now gave the errand to him, but he didn't mention the prince." ”
"It's a long time coming." Lu Jiuyuan said in a deep voice.
When Gu Changqing heard this, he shrugged his shoulders, "I am on par with you on the left and right, whoever you want to support, I will naturally fully support it." ”
Lu Jiuyuan bowed, "Hmm." ”
"It's just, so you let go of the five princes?" Gu Changqing touched his chin and looked at him thoughtfully.
Lu Jiuyuan lowered his eyes, "Otherwise? ”
"I thought that at least I had to break his arm and leg to relieve his hatred." Gu Changqing said.
"Leave him for a while." Lu Jiuyuan's dark eyes narrowed, and he said lightly.
When Gu Changqing heard this, he glanced at him, and knew that he had other plans, so he didn't say anything more.
……
As soon as Tao Yao got up, he saw the housekeeper Uncle Chen leading people to move stacks of ledgers into her yard.
She looked dazed, "Uncle Chen, this is ......"
Chen Bo said respectfully: "The old slave was ordered by the Duke of the Kingdom to send the account books to his wife, and from today onwards, these account books will be handed over to his wife for inspection."
By the way, this is the key to the storeroom, and I will give it to Madame as well. ”
Tao Yao looked at the ledgers piled up as high as a hill on the table, and the corners of his mouth twitched, "The national bus is on behalf of?" ”
"Yes." Chen Bo said respectfully.
Tao Yao: "......"
What does Lu Jiuyuan mean?
With so many ledgers to show her, when will she see them?
Is he punishing her in disguise?
But she hasn't done anything bad lately, has she?
If there is, it is also a matter of yesterday's academy and Zuiyue Building.
"Madame, take your time, if you don't understand something, you can always ask the old slave." Chen Bodao.
Tao Yao: "......"
Can she say that she doesn't want to see it?
With so many ledgers to show her, she couldn't even play happily.
She just wants to be a happy rice worm.
……
Lu Jiuyuan returned to the Guogong Mansion, and as soon as he entered the study, Tao Yao ran over.
"Uncle Jiu, you're tired, I'll make you ginseng tea." She graciously brought a cup of ginseng tea to him.
Lu Jiuyuan paused, glanced at the ginseng tea in front of him, raised his eyes and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Tao Yao choked, wrung his handkerchief and said: "It's nothing, I just think that Uncle Nine has to be busy with military affairs every day, and he has to go to the camp to inspect it, which is really hard, so I made you a cup of ginseng tea to relieve your fatigue." ”
Lu Jiuyuan glanced at her, picked up the ginseng tea and took a sip.
The taste of ginseng tea in the entrance is just right, and it is indeed done with care.
"Got it." He put the cup down.
Tao Yao hesitated for a while, "Uncle Nine......"
"Say it." Lu Jiuyuan said good-naturedly.
"That...... I don't want to look at the ledger. Tao Yao whispered, and then added, "I can't understand it at all, so let Uncle Chen continue to read it." ”
"If you don't understand, you can learn." Lu Jiuyuan said unhurriedly.
Tao Yao froze, "I can't learn ......"
"Well, if you can't learn, don't go out in the future." Lu Jiuyuan glanced at her and said lightly.
Tao Yao: "......"
She bit her lip and couldn't help but say, "Are you punishing me for what happened to Drunken Moon Tower yesterday?" But I didn't do anything wrong, I don't accept it. ”
Lu Jiuyuan paused, looked at the girl's aggrieved look, frowned, and said, "Don't think about it, there's nothing." ”
"It's not to punish me, why do you want me to look at so many ledgers?" Tao Yao said pitifully.
Lu Jiuyuan's voice softened a little, "You are the head of the Lu Guo Mansion, and reading the account book is what you should do." Moreover, I see that you usually have nothing to do. ”
Tao Yao: "......"
