After Liang Tong, the king of Yue, heard the love in His Majesty's tone, the original uneasy mood slowly calmed down, and he felt more pampered and proud.

Unexpectedly, before he was too proud, he was splashed with a basin of cold water on his head, like a complacent person who was told that he just had a dream without a trace.

His Majesty the Emperor glanced at Liang Dong, the king of Yue, and asked in a cold tone: "Xiao Shi, you have been living a peaceful life for a long time, don't you know what the law is and what the rules are? Do you think the meat on your body is worthless, and do you want to try the taste of the board?"

A hurry, sharp and cold tone of words frightened Liang Dong, the king of Yue, who had just been triumphant, to his knees, his shoulders kept trembling, and he begged for mercy very weakly: "Father, the son is confused for a while, ask for forgiveness from the father, the son will never dare anymore, no longer dare......"

Xu Shiyue King Liang Tong's words were too much, everyone present was accustomed to it, and His Majesty the Emperor didn't care much about it, and he didn't think that his son really knew that he was wrong.

The emperor glanced at Yu Chaoen, and said without being salty: "Yu Chaoen, press Liang Dong, the king of Yue, to Zongzheng Temple, and Zongzheng Temple will handle this matter." ”

What is Zongzheng Temple? The function of Zongzheng Temple is to manage the affairs of the royal family, and the so-called "the family of the nine clans and six relatives of the emperor is in the order of distinguishing from the Mu, and the relatives are among the relatives." All the children of the Liang royal family, regardless of their status and blood relationship with the current emperor, are within the scope of their management.

Therefore, all the children of the royal family who have made mistakes are very afraid of Zongzheng Temple, because the successive Zongzheng Temple Secretaries are very old-fashioned and strict, and they do not see the royal children frolicking excessively and not seeking progress.

Before Yu Chaoen could respond, Liang Tong, the king of Yue, cried with a handful of snot and tears, and cried very aggrievedly: "Father, all brothers have things to handle, and all fiefs can be used as vassals, why can I only stay in the capital?

I was not angry for a while, and then I lost my mind. I shouldn't have done it, I should be honest and be a powerless prince, I was wrong, father, father, please spare me. ”

A hoarse cry softened the emperor's heart.

His Majesty the Emperor's eyes softened, and the voice and smile of the early death of Liang Tong, the king of Yue, flowed in his mind, and he couldn't help but sigh faintly, and said in a low voice: "Then I will give you a chance, this time I will spare you, if there is a repeat offense, I will never be merciful." ”

Yue Wang Liang Tong was overjoyed in his heart, kowtowed very sincerely, and replied seriously: "Erchen will never be so nonsense again, he must follow his father's teachings and not make his father angry." ”

The emperor's expression eased a lot, and he quietly looked at the casual son in front of him, feeling distressed and helpless, and said slowly after a long time: "In this case, the medical expenses and compensation this time are all paid by you, and you must not cause trouble in the future, you must study quietly and be a young man who has become a complete product." ”

Liang Tong, the king of Yue, looked at the emperor with gratitude, and responded: "Erchen obeys the order." ”

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Okay, you and the boss go first, and you don't have to worry about the rest." ”

Liang Li, the king of Qi, and Liang Tong, the king of Yue, bowed down and saluted, and then slowly withdrew from the Zichen Palace.

After the two princes left, the emperor admonished him a few words and let the rest of the princes go.

The content of the precepts is nothing more than words such as brotherhood, brotherhood, solidarity and fraternity.

After all the princes left the Zichen Palace, the emperor looked indifferently at the subordinates of the Eight Princes' Mansion and the entourage, and reprimanded: "King Yue is not sensible, and you are not sensible either? Why didn't he stop him when he beat people? Did he feel that he had been wearing his official uniform for a long time and wanted to change it?"

The servants of the Eight Kings' Mansion knelt on the ground, shouting confession.

The emperor ignored them, and began to reprimand the people who announced the decree, and scolded angrily: "In the capital, the edict of my edict was beaten, and you were indifferent, you really deserve death." ”

As soon as the words fell, a large number of people knelt in the hall, prostrate on the ground with panicked faces, afraid that His Majesty the Emperor would really ask them for their guilt.

After a long time, the emperor said in a deep voice: "Everyone will be fined for one year as punishment, and if the same thing happens in the future, they will not be spared." ”

Everyone who knelt down kowtowed to thank him, and they all put down a big stone in their hearts, feeling that they had picked up another life.

The Emperor waved his hand and motioned for the kneeling crowd to stand down.

When there were only two people left in the Zichen Palace, the emperor asked softly, "Yu Chaoen, do you think it is unfair for me to deal with it like this?"

Yu Chaoen bowed and replied: "Your Majesty's Sacred Heart is dictatorial, and the old slave does not dare to talk about it. ”

The Emperor smiled lightly and said, "Okay, I know that you old fellow is uncomfortable, but what can I do? Xiao Shi's mother died early, and I was busy with government affairs, and I neglected to discipline, so that he had the temperament he has today, and I can't get out of it."

However, I will not let Liu Jinyan be beaten in vain.

According to my mouth, Li Dehai, the young eunuch of the Inner Servant Province, is old and weak, and he is allowed to leave the palace to recuperate, and Liu Jinyan takes over the post of Young Eunuch. ”

Yu Chaoen bowed down, and the corners of his eyebrows quietly stretched, adding a little joy.

......

On the post road between Jiaxing County and Suzhou, the people of Mengfu are still in a hurry.

When the city gate opened, everyone went out of the north gate and ran in the direction of Suzhou.

After more than two hours of traveling, the group had come to the vicinity of a town.

Meng Ran tapped the horse's belly, walked side by side with the carriage, and asked, "Uncle Geng, there is a town not far ahead, should we stop and rest?"

Geng Huyuan's voice passed through the curtain of the car and said, "Naturally, we want to take a rest, people can not eat or drink, but these horses still have to be taken care of." ”

The mounts of the people of Mengfu and the horses pulling the carts were sent to Mengfu by Zhou Zhi County, and Zhou Zhi County learned the news of Meng Ran's northward journey, and he was very dedicated to keeping them.

After learning of Meng Ran's determination, he had to give some silver tickets and horses, and sent a few words of blessing that were very good.

Meng Ran snorted and continued to ask, "Uncle Geng, did you say that the senior brother of Nanzhu seniors has been found?"

Geng Huyuan lifted the corner of the curtain and asked in a teasing tone, "What? Are you afraid?"

Meng Ran replied honestly: "Naturally, I am afraid, I still have too many things to do, too many scenery to enjoy, and I haven't accompanied my mother and Xue'er well, so it's too regrettable to die like this." ”

Geng Huyuan smiled slightly and said, "I don't think that senior brother from Nanzhu will come." ”

"Why?" Meng Ran asked with a look of surprise, "Could it be that you have made any new discoveries?"

Geng Huyuan bowed his head slightly, and said softly: "Before the half-pillar incense, I noticed that there was a fluctuation of heaven and earth aura in the direction of Jiaxing City, and the momentum was very huge, thinking that it was a duel between two fairyland masters. If it is not as expected, it will naturally be the battle between Brother Ning and Senior Brother Nanzhu. ”

Meng Ran turned his head to look in the direction of Jiaxing City, and said with a worried expression: "I don't know how Senior Ning's cultivation is, whether it can stop the senior brother of Nanzhu Senior." ”

Geng Huyuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, the battle is over, and Brother Ning will definitely win." ”

"En?" Meng Ran looked at Geng Huyuan in the carriage and asked, "Why is Uncle Geng so determined?"

"Because Ning Shoucheng is a master of the Earth Immortal Realm. The one who answered the call was the swordsman surnamed Lin, who acted as a groom.

Meng Ran looked at Geng Huyuan in disbelief, and stammered and asked, "Geng... Uncle Geng, is this true? Is Senior Ning really an Earth Immortal Realm? Isn't he one of the strongest people in the Divine Continent?"

Geng Huyuan nodded lightly at first, then shook his head and said, "He is indeed an Earth Immortal Realm, but it is not clear that he is not one of the strongest.

The Shenzhou Continent has a history of thousands of years, and there are countless monks, maybe there is a thousand-year-old king hidden somewhere. What's more, the two sects of Taoism and Buddhism have a profound heritage, and they may not know what great masters are hidden in the sect. ”

"Okay. ”

Meng Ran didn't know what to think, and sat on the horse's back with a sad face, his body swaying slightly as the mount walked.

......

After Liang Li, the king of Qi, and Liang Tong, the king of Yue, walked out of the Zichen Palace, their eyes met for a moment, and they quickly separated.

Liang Yu snorted lightly in disdain, then quickened his pace and strode towards the direction of the palace gate.

Liang Tong stared at the road under his feet with an ugly face, eager to smash all the green bricks on the ground to vent his hatred.

He touched his slightly swollen cheeks, and the hatred in his heart was even worse, and a bit of hideousness appeared on his originally handsome and white face.

Yue Wang Liang Tong glanced around, and after noticing that there was no one around, he whispered: "Okay, you Liang Li, you actually beat me for a eunuch with no eggs, and I am inseparable from you." In the future, wherever there is you, I will never appear. ”

After saying that, Liang Tong spat at the position where King Qi Liang Li had just stood, and then swayed his body and walked in the direction of the palace gate.

The two brothers had just left the palace, and the rest of the princes had also left the Zichen Palace, and the expressions on their faces were very strange.

After a few people stayed away from Zichen Palace, someone spoke.

The fourth prince Liang Qi, that is, King Lu, first patted his brother Liang Yan on the shoulder, and then said to the second prince Liang Dan: "Second brother, I went out of Beijing this time, I don't know when I will return, and the seventh brother stays in the capital, so I will bother you more." ”

The second prince Liang Dan, that is, the king of Chu, glanced at the seventh prince Liang Yan with disgust, and said softly: "Sixth brother, don't worry, everything is with me." ”

Liang Dan paused for a moment, and said earnestly: "The sixth brother is about to enter Qingzhou, and my brother doesn't know what gift to give you, so I have to let you go to my house to choose in person, I don't know when you will be free?"

The fourth prince, Liang Qi, smiled slightly and replied: "I am very leisurely, and I am free at any time." ”

The second prince, Liang Dan, bowed his head and said, "Okay, let's do it tonight, and you can come when the time comes." ”

Liang Qi nodded yes.

The Sixth Emperor Liang Tong looked at the three siblings of the brothers, friends and brothers, and his heart was slightly sour, and then he turned to look at the Nine Emperor Sons Liang Si beside him, and asked in a low voice: "The ninth brother is going to Chuzhou, Huainan Province, what do you think?"

The Nine Emperor Princes, Liang Si, said in a flat tone: "What can you think, just do your duty as a vassal king." ”
