Guo Gongye immediately knelt down and shouted, "Long live the Emperor!Liu Zhimo and the rest were shocked, after that they also regained their senses and knelt down, kowtowing to the Emperor.
Only Mr. Luo did not kneel down. Although he did not kneel, he stood up as well, this could be considered as his respect for the emperor.
The Emperor raised his hand slightly and said indifferently, "Rise."
Seeing that everyone had stood up, the emperor"s gaze turned towards Guo Gongye as he stared at him with a smile that was not a smile, "Guo Gongye, do you want to explain to us what happened just now? "Hmm?" Mansion of the State was really getting more and more arrogant. If he did not punish them, then maybe three people would fall on his head one day.
Today, he would definitely use the Mansion of the State as an opening point.
Guo Gongye"s heart thumped, he knew that he was unlucky today.
No matter how he thought about it, he had never expected that the emperor would secretly come to the scene!
"In reply to the emperor, this old subject doesn"t know what to say to the emperor."
The emperor snorted and walked to the main seat, sitting down. He picked up a wood plank and slapped it hard, causing Guo Gongye to kneel down to the ground in shock.
Seeing that, Liu Zhimo and the rest immediately knelt down as well.
At this time, Li Qingling finally understood the meaning behind those words.
If the emperor was unhappy, then he had to be careful of his head.
This was also the first time she directly faced the majesty of the Emperor.
She had to admit, as the Emperor, not everyone could directly face the majesty he exuded.
His face darkened slightly, and the aura coming from his body pressed down on them so hard that they couldn"t even breathe.
"Other than Guo Gongye, everyone else is up."
Li Qingling and the rest thanked the Emperor and stood up fearfully. They stood where they were with their heads lowered, not daring to look around carelessly.
Guo Gongye felt embarra.s.sed in his heart, but he didn"t dare say anything.
The emperor looked at Guo Gongye who was kneeling on the ground without uttering a word, and then said in a stunned voice, "Guo Gongye, are you sure you really have nothing else to say? "Hmm?" He was going to give him one more chance. If he really didn"t want to repent, then don"t blame him.
"Reporting to the Emperor, this old subject really has nothing to say." Guo Gongye replied respectfully, he absolutely could not admit to what happened just now, if not, the emperor would have immediately scolded him.
He was actually betting on the fact that the emperor didn"t arrive so early and didn"t see all of his actions just now.
Only, Guo Gongye did not expect the emperor to finish reading the entire book.
"Good job, Guo Gongye. Good job." The emperor didn"t want to beat around the bush now. He clapped his hands and said with an angry smile, "Since you have nothing to say, then how about letting Zhen tell you about what happened just now one by one and help you recall your memories."
Did this old man really think he could do whatever he wanted just because he had a daughter as a queen?
Did he really think that he would not put the emperor in his eyes with the slightest bit of effort when he ascended the throne?
Hearing this, a layer of cold sweat instantly appeared on Guo Gongye"s forehead. He lost the bet.
This time, he did not dare to be stubborn. He directly shouted, "This old official deserves to die, your majesty, please forgive me."
He had only just come to beg him to suffer, so what was his reply when he asked him that question just now?
Did he think it was too late?
"Guo Gongye, what crime do you want us to forgive you for? Didn"t you think you were innocent? "
Guo Gongye"s head was about to hit the ground, "This old official …. This old subject was momentarily bewitched, and I hope that Your Majesty will forgive this old subject, and never dare to do so again. " How could he have that kind of mentality just now? Did he think he could deceive the Emperor? Seriously … What the h.e.l.l.
The Emperor did not waste time with Guo Gongye and directly asked him, since he is guilty, how should he be punished?
She still had to give face to the empress. She couldn"t punish her too severely, but she couldn"t be too light either.
Hearing the emperor"s words, the sweat on Guo Gongye"s forehead dripped onto the ground.
He did not care about wiping, and directly said, he personally went and apologized to Li Qingling, telling her to forgive Mansion of the State.
The Emperor was obviously not satisfied with his answer, so he continued to ask, What else? Is that enough?
Just a simple apology and he wanted to treat it as his own punishment?
Guo Gongye swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and then, he stretched out his hand to wipe the cold sweat flowing down his face. Your Majesty, please speak. This old official will listen. " If he had to say it himself, then he wanted to apologize.
However, since he said this and the Emperor wasn"t satisfied, what should he say and do?
"To express your sincerity, of course it"s you, Guo Gongye, who needs to say it."
"..." Guo Gongye suspected that the Emperor was intentionally making things difficult for him. This old official is not very smart, I can"t think of anything else at the moment. "
The emperor stared fixedly at Guo Gongye, and only spoke faintly when Guo Gongye was completely terrified, "Since Guo Gongye"s mind isn"t sharp, then why not abdicate and let your eldest son inherit it?"
It takes seven inches to strike a snake, and the Emperor knows it.
When he said that, Guo Gongye"s entire body froze.
Did he dig a hole and jump down by himself?
Guo Gongye was so regretful that he wanted to slap himself to clear his mind.
"This old official … This old official"s eldest son does not have the capability yet, he still needs to continue to train himself. At that time, this old official will automatically abdicate and let him inherit the throne. "
If he let his eldest son inherit the throne, then who knew what would happen to the Mansion of the State?
He had to discipline his eldest son properly, otherwise, he would really be worried about handing over the Mansion of the State to him.
In fact, in his heart, he was only thinking of the third son taking over the Mansion of the State. That child was like him, she did things without any hesitation and attacked when the time came, not holding back at all.
Unlike his eldest son who had a soft temper and a soft ear, he had to change his mind when someone tried to persuade him.
How could such a person take over the Mansion of the State?
However, according to the ancestors" rules, the direct line of descent was not to be pa.s.sed on, while the direct line of descent was not to be pa.s.sed on.
Otherwise, he would have pushed the third son up a long time ago.
The emperor also knew about the situation in the Mansion of the State. He pursed his lips and asked, "Then how does Guo Gongye plan to punish himself?" He would hand over the choice to the Mansion of the State. He could not avoid the punishment that he said.
Guo Gongye gritted his teeth and said, he bought the shop that Li Qingling wanted to buy, gave it to Li Qingling, and also made Wu Furen receive ten boards.
After waiting for a long time, and not waiting for the emperor to nod his head, Guo Gongye took a deep breath and continued to prepare porridge at the city gate for a month.
When the Emperor heard this, he smiled and looked towards Li Qingling, "Mrs Liu, do you agree with Guo Gongye"s words?"
Being suddenly asked by the emperor caused Li Qingling to be stunned for a moment. She raised her head to look at Mr. Luo, and only after seeing him nod his head, she respectfully replied, agreeing.
Guo Gongye was the empress"s father after all, so he couldn"t go overboard against the crown prince"s grandfather. Otherwise, the empress and the crown prince would lose face.
However, just this matter was enough to cause people in the Mansion of the State to talk about it with interest.
The emperor slapped him on the shoulder. "Fine, let"s do it this way. Come on, let"s do it."
Just as Wu Furen opened her mouth to shout that the Emperor was wronged, her mouth was stopped, and she was pressed down to hit a board.
He had to beat her ten times before he finally let her go.
At this time, Wu Furen was in so much pain that she could no longer speak.
She had always lived like a prince, and had never been hit by a board before. This time, she had been beaten ten times without being able to move. The pain made her unable to move.
Guo Gongye was afraid that she would cause trouble again, so he quickly ordered someone to carry her back to Mansion of the State.
"Teacher, I haven"t played chess with you in a long time, and I just happen to be free today. How about this?" After a pause, he said, "Teacher"s grandson"s wife, please come as well!"
How could Mr. Luo not know of the Emperor"s intentions? It was just that in front of so many people, he could not refuse him.
He stood up and dusted off his robes, then turned and nodded towards Liu Zhimo and Li Qingling, before walking out the door.
Seeing that, Guo Gongye hurriedly said, "Mrs Liu, where should I give you the contract from this shop?"
"Xue Mansion, I"ll have to trouble Guo Gongye to give it to me. Thank you."
Xue Mansion?
"Is it that Xue Mansion Xue Taiyi?"
"Yes …"
Hearing that, Guo Gongye looked at Li Qingling with a complicated gaze. He did not think that Li Qingling was not only related to Mr. Luo, but to Xue Taiyi as well.
He smiled and asked, what was Li Qingling"s relationship with Xue Taiyi?
Li Qingling honestly said that Xue Taiyi was her grandfather.
Grandfather?
Xue Taiyi was not even married, where did he get his granddaughter?
Do you have to admit that I"m related to you?
Guo Gongye still wanted to ask, but when he saw Mr. Luo"s fake smile, he swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Forget it, forget it. He would just send someone to investigate and find out. There was no need to ask anymore.
The emperor was walking in front, and when he turned around to look at Mr. Luo"s light green robe, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Teacher, we have known you for so long, but this is the first time I have seen you in any other robe." Other than the white or the white, there was no other color that could be found on his teacher"s robe. Seeing him wearing this robe today really made him feel quite surprised.
Mr. Luo touched his robe in satisfaction, and then slightly raised his chin and said, "My grandson"s wife made it for me."
"Oh …" The emperor lengthened his endings and looked at Li Qingling. He could tell that the female was not bad.
"Does it look good?"
"..."
The Emperor suspected that the person in front of him was not his teacher. Since when was his teacher so childish?
"Doesn"t look good?" Mr. Luo did not hear the emperor"s reply and frowned.
"Looks good …" When the emperor heard this, he hurriedly nodded. "This color is very similar to teacher. Occasionally wearing robes of other colors, teacher"s really pretty good too."
The smile on Mr. Luo"s face became wider, he touched his clothes, and took a bigger step, revealing the shoes on his feet, "I also think that it"s very fitting, and it"s even more fitting when it"s with the shoes that Sun"s wife makes." These shoes were indeed comfortable. "I also have a royal blue set at home. I like it very much."
Hearing this, the emperor"s mouth twitched nonstop. Was this his G.o.ddess-like teacher? Is that so?
